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 inspiringTumblr (3.0;

holiday Kahlua pack…it’s a 5th of Kahlua, 3 little Kahlua tasters (Mocha, French Vanilla, and Hazelnut Kahlua) and a Kahlua mug.  The mocha and french vanilla are quite tastey.  And Sam is behind me being very cute.</p> <p>bah I need to pack…and stretch a canvas!  but I’d rather sit here with my Kahlua and cream (er…soy milk)</p>http://travelbyfoldingamap.tumblr.com/post/256421938http://travelbyfoldingamap.tumblr.com/post/256421938Tue, 24 Nov 2009 22:27:17 -0500<p>I took some photos of my dollhouse my grandpa built me.  They came out pretty creepy (probably because they’re so still…and the dollhouse has actual working lighting so the photos were at night…but I really like them).</p>http://travelbyfoldingamap.tumblr.com/post/256374989http://travelbyfoldingamap.tumblr.com/post/256374989Tue, 24 Nov 2009 21:48:08 -0500<img
