Mitsu's feet after an amazing day hanging out with him and Tyler, eating way too much taffy. My bike which is now my brothers and zucchini with onions, garlic, tomatoes and blended beans. Delicious.

The Summer so Far in Cell Phone Pictures















There are a lot of tooth brushes at my teachers house. Final critique/meeting of my undergrad life. 
















Then there was watching the final work of the FVNM students. Carolina Gonzalez had an amazing piece which won the Fellowship, Exal's piece was awesome to see on the big screen and it was incredible to see Kali's work for the first time.
















Bike races at the school Sabrina teaches at was amazing. Those high school kids where so creative and even though it was a chilly day it was awesome watching them ride modified bikes.
















I graduated and the speaker was Renzo Piano. My brother and sister came down and we got Ethiopian food after. My mom and aunt came too.














Exal and his family, Kali and her family and Amanda, Crysta and I all went out that night to the Grand Lux. All I can say is "Pollo Busto".














I went to San Francisco to find jobs the day after graduation. I ate a huge thing of gelato in the Castro and fell in love with Kiki Smiths "Lillith" and the SFMoMA.














I went to a Sox game with a guy and then to Phoenix in Chinatown for dinner. It was pretty delicious. 














Moving from my studio.














Buying plants that make me think of California.














My new room, green of course.














Gorgeous new apartment.














This summer involved sweet potatoes. Yum.














And Exal. Lots and lots of Exal.














Cooking expired popcorn with Gillian. 














Empty studio apartment. 














Frozen bananas.














New roommates.














St. Louis to see Stan's art opening.














With my brother, awesome trip.














I broke my elbow and sprained my wrist flipping over my bike handles. Then drugged up I still went out that night. 














North Avenue Beach.














New tattoo.














Spending a gorgeous afternoon with Monica in a park nearby.














Enjoying not having to go downtown but when I do I can nap on the 14th floor.














New computer!! So useful!














At the top part of North Avenue beach so I don't get sandy. Went to Merideth's after this to hand out.














My Mom and Myah, the best dog in the world.




All the plants surrounding our apartment.
