Travel By Folding A Map

I'm Jesika...I'm pursuing a Painting/Drawing BFA at the moment. This was my study abroad travel blog turned everyday blog. I post photos from my life, my work, and ones I find or reblog which will probably revolve around:
•Cupcakes, baking, cake decorating, recipes
•Travel photos
•Daily "Place I Want to go" (which will go on for 365 days)
•Animals, pets, marine biology (especially jellyfish and cephalopods)
•artists and photographers find inspiring

sleeping for the next four trillion hours, going to phillyu to see dandrew and bleaken, and then FLYERSSSSS with jo!

I was there last night (unfortunately having to sit in the 21+ balcony due to fms pain….I shouldn’t have worked out yesterday morning but at the same time I needed to feel like I COULD work out again). It was amazing. Kevin Devine was awesome too..talked to him before the show….he actually remembered Justin and me (I’ve met him twice in Philly, once in Pittsburg, and we ran into him at a Bright Eyes show in NYC) and we all talked about his set and about Philly. I got a vinyl of Brother’s Blood and it’s soooo pretty…coloured vinyl…there will be pictures. Anyway, show was amazng. I told Justin the second I defeat my fms I’m getting tickets to a concert that’s GA and going wayy up front like I used to in high school and going nuts the whole show.

Cartman singing “Poker Face” from South Park….seriously…I’ve had this in my head for 5 days…this version….over and over haha. While it’s hilarious and it would be nice if it would get out of my head

So I emailed my brother about having the Cartman “Poker Face” song in my head….and he said that he saw this before he saw the South Park ep and it’s hilarious. Christopher Walken reading “Poker Face.” amazing.

Place I want to go #171: Suzzallo Library, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington
Suzzallo (who it’s named after obviously) said unversities should be “cathedrals of learning.” I would never want to leave these library. If I went there I’d go there and read all the time.

Place I want to go #170: Strasboug, France
and of course a visit to the Strasbourg Cathedral would be necessary….I adore European Cathedrals (mostly Gothic through Baroque). One of the things I miss most about being in Italy.

72 min — 3.51 miles — 2.5-3.0 mph

This is the most I have walked in one stretch since I broke my leg two years ago and then got sick with FM.

I don’t know what tomorrow will bring — whether my body will continue responding in this amazing way, or I’ll wake up not being able to walk without help once again.

But I know this: today I feel stronger and hopeful. I feel a lot more like myself. It’s been a long time since I could say that. I needed each and everything that came to my life in the last 12 hours. It’s been a great Thursday.

Congrats to Julie on this….it makes me hopeful hearing others suceeding. Since for the first time since I started yoga I felt too weak to go to yoga this Tuesday morning…and I won’t be going next Tuesday cause of our anniversary…I figured tomorrow I’ll try to go to the gym and do light weights for the first time in i think over a month (since before I upped my meds)…I’m so nervous but at the same time if I can go and do my normal circuit I’ll be so hopeful and feel so much better

I know I’ve posted about this before but here’s another image…this is so insane. It’s really really incredible.
