SOME WORDS AND THEN A LIST AND THEN SOME MORE WORDS
Okay, back to what I've been meaning to do for months: a summary of some of my favorite bloggers and artists. This will probably (hopefully?) be a semi-regular installment, at least when I'm not writing essays comparing Robert Herrick to MGMT (I wish I were kidding! I love senior year assignments):
Alex Eben Meyer

I had Eben as an illustration teacher the summer before sophomore year when a friend and I took courses at Parsons (The New School for Design in NYC), and still look at his website pretty often.

I used to read Kris' livejournal back in ye olde underclassmen days, and have remained a big fan. There's something decidedly fresh about her decadent and crisp photographs, not to mention her charming illustrations and paper-cuttings.
Jezebel
blog
There's no place I'd rather get my daily dose of femi-snark. Granted, the material can be superficial at times, but that's something that I'm willing to forgive when I'm trying to veg out in front of the computer after school. (Side note: How can anyone seriously find this attractive? The girl looks less human and more Stick Stickly.)*
*Wow, serious childhood nostalgia.**
**File under "how you know you've seen Fight Club too many times": The music in that commercial totally sounds like a little kid version of the scene in which that guy cleaning the sidewalk with a hose sprays water onto a priest passing by in order to start a fight.***
***I have friends, I swear.
