Back to school vibes

Kept it simple for a walk to the park with my beloved, (somewhat) patient dog, Sadie. This is probably one of my favorite sets of photos posted on Silhouette Girl. I tend to find broken, rusty things aesthetically pleasing, especially in photographs. I used to spend nearly every evening here as a child... now the graffiti has expanded past the wall and onto the playground. It's not very often I actually see people here, unless it's young teenagers walking to the wall to spray paint. I'm not saying that "graffiti" is all bad, but when it's out of suburban teenage angst it's a little annoying. I tend to prefer the more artistic approach, but then again, I'm a sucker for bright colors.

The location of these photos reminds me of Tumblr tag "back to school vibes," as used by Tavi. And then I remember I won't be in this area for back to school vibes. Bittersweet, bittersweet.

I think it's time for a haircut. It's become slightly unruly, and I'm far too lazy to do anything to my hair, especially during summer. I'm low maintenance, for the most part.

I'll probably switch these shoes when I go out for dinner... whenever that will be! I'm rambling.

Also, I discovered the hilarious website Found Footage Festival, and I suppose all of my friends have too since I've posted it on an obscene amount of Facebook walls. I'd particularly like to recommend "I'm A Spoon" to all you fashion lovers. Seriously, watch it. I'm normally not one to eradicate boredom with funny viral videos, but apparently I have a penchant for cheesy 80's/90's informational videos.
