Hello faithful bloggees! I have completely fallen off the mark and missed updating the past couple months. A very belated Happy Holidays and Happy New Year. 2011 provided me with the highest of the highs and the lowest of the lows, and I am thankful and appreciative for it all. A half dozen photos below summarize some of the moments which I did not blog about previously. I am going to try really hard this year to live each day as if it is my last ... because if the Mayans are right, 2012 really might be the last ;)

Just got back from Coachella 2011 and am still overwhelmed. The sights, the sounds, the heat, the people, the fashion, and the awesome and unbelievable talent which not only wowed the audience but was so appreciative to be able to perform there. Festival-goers from all around the world were all united for the chance to see their favorite artists. Nothing was shocking but everything was amazing. Unbelievable. It was really an investment into our memories. Need to sleep now. Wake me up in time for Coachella 2012!

Just some blackberry snaps I wanted to share from the past month - from LAS to JFK and PHX to LAX:

More NYC pics on facebook.

The Hills season premiere is in exactly one month. I just saw the trailer on MTV. I am besides myself: Lauren loves Brody, Brody loves another girl; Heidi wants to be BFF with Audrina, Lauren tells Audrina not to be BFF with Heidi; She-Pratt becomes friends with Lauren to become famous; He-Pratt and She-Pratt fight; Justin Bobby is back?; and Paris remains as my favorite city in the entire world. I. AM. BESIDES. MYSELF. And to think that I have been waiting anxiously for Gossip Girl. This is actual* drama like your baby’s momma.

If anyone else has a Lo sighting at UCLA please let me know... ahem, Ava... ahem, Mona... I’ll be there in thirty minutes.

*Please note by actual I am including: filming multiple takes, dialogue notes, producer comments, and perhaps even script changes.

Life’s a beach. And then its fall. More specifically, today is the fall equinox. To reminisce, here are some random summer oh-six highlights:
