falling in love at a coffee shop.

it's been a while since my love affair with this song. i remember listening to landon pigg on repeat during the drive back to oregon after school finished last year. i guess it's that time of year again...

number 29.

via tribunali.

to die for neapolitan pizza...check. this place is my absolute favorite seattle pizzeria. thin crust, simple ingredients. don't even get me started on their mezza luna di nutella. aka nutella calzone with lots of powdered sugar on top. doughy chocolatey goodness.

number 17 & number 24.

eat an ice cream cone at cal anderson park & molly' moons.

molly moon's ice cream was the perfect treat for a sunshine-y afternoon. it seems all of seattle was out and about yesterday, enjoying the warm-ish weather. so lovely. unfortunately, the rain and grey is back today. but my slight sunburn serves as a reminder that summer is a-coming.

countdown to graduation: 21 days.

{salted caramel & theo chocolate. and yes, my waffle cone is in a bowl. i am a hopeless mess when it comes to ice cream. it inevitably ends up spilled down the front of me,}

{tarah, on the other hand, appears to be an expert at ice cream cones. go tarah!}

bike box.

by the looks of this sign, i suspect seattlites are experiencing confusion over these new green pavement markings. not the case for anyone who has ever lived in or driven through portland, or.

flipped.

i think i read the book flipped by wendelin van draanen sometime during my middle school years. i distinctly remember adoring the "he said/she said" dual perspective of the book. and the likable characters and sweet storyline.

apparently this witty teen read hit the silver screen last year. but i just found out yesterday, while perusing recently released dvds. anyway, i decided that i absolutely had to see it. for old time's sake. and so i watched it last night. {after i got all, errr most of, my school work done. obviously.} i have to say, i was pleasantly surprised. it ended up being a cute film. not an academy award nominee, but a satisfyingly nostalgic and heartwarming coming of age flick. it was a refreshing change from the cookie cutter romantic comedies that hollywood churns out these days. aka boy meets girl. boy and girl fall in love. boy and girl encounter obstacle standing in the way of said love. uh oh. boy and girl overcome obstacle. boy and girl live happily ever after. the end.
