Step 3: Don't forget You have an imagination





Yesterday can essentially be summarized by a few words; walk, thrift, pintrest.
What did I do? well Sarah and I walked to a thirft store and I got to see even more sights and sounds of Baltimore. I really do love how much more history there is on this side of the country....it really is quite obvious and really does make a difference. Heres a visual tour of what I saw whilst walking:
COOLEST DORMS I HAVE EVER SEEN

This house reminds me of full house/ sesame street it may just be the stoop but I also like the flowery shrubs they have out front.
 I found the performing arts center!!! ....actually I must confess I walked past this the first night but I didn't take a picture until yesterday.







Ello mate! this place reminds me of thee YOU KAY! If I were younger I would try and find the longest dress I own put my hair up and pretend I was walking through my gardens in the Victorian era.

btw this is the sculpture building, and for print making majors as well

Anyways after strolling through Baltimore we finally made it to our destination...THE THRIFT STORE!
here I had waay to much fun.I kept hearing Spanish which was weird because it is definitely not common to hear it here as it is along the border. I met a man from Barbados and his daughter Natalia and his wife who were extremely loud and jolly. I shall provide visual aid as I describe my thrift store experience:





First of all this thrift store was huge and had so much stuff, alot of stuff from the 90's too! My main fascination was cool thing about the east coast #3 They have real winter clothes in thrift stores 
As you can see by the aisles of scarves hats andlegit winter coats.



I found this sweater, and this hat...why did i put them on you ask?
MARY KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN WORE OUTFITS JUST LIKE THIS IN THEIR YOU'RE INVITED BALLET PARTY!! andddd I used to think they were the most fashionable people ever, so I fulfilled my childhood dream of having an outfit like theirs for approximately 30 seconds.

OK this requires explanation. I found A huge fur coat. It brought a couple of ideas. SOOO i played pretend:

- One it reminded me of when I played refugee mom as a seven year old child (I would sit on my bed and pretend I was leaving seven of my children in the old world as I took a ship to the new world. I would take my baby doll, a drawing of my fictional family and one blanket. I would pretend I suffered sea sickness and felt extreme relief when I saw the Statue of liberty in the horizon. Yes I was and odd child indeed) Anyways the first pic on the bottom left is me, thinking back of my fictional children, finally wearing the fur coat I pictured while I pretended as a child.

the one on the right ..... I simply said in a thick russian accent

" My name is Sergei, and EYE am frrrom thee Sovyet Uuunyuhn"
     .....................................need I say more?

Anyways after this highly successful thrift store/ blast in the past experience; in which I did buy a bag. And saw a dress from the early 2000's that Im pretty sure my barbie doll had. Sarah and I returned to MICA where we went to the MICA bookstore/supply store. I have mainly been to the UC'S....this is the best school supply store ever. Its essentially an art store!
books?...nah drawing stuff instead! Art school rocks.
After our excursions Sarah went to class, I went to the gym we hung out and then proceeded to go and find a recipe on pintrest for Vegan, Low Fat Gluten Free Banana Bluberry Bread! Heres a pictorial version of the process:



 We ate it this morning for breakfast...it was pretty damn goood. :))
As for today....main event is we walked 7 miles in about 89 degree weather to the Harbor! this also really just can be explained by pictures I dont have much to say...except that:
EAST WEST THE OCEAN IS BEST!.... such a comfort to see some sort of oceanic body of water.
Anyhow heres what I saw





WE MADE IT TO THE HARBOR!!! that's the aquarium         

Science building it was quite nice

We wandered into a Museum store, and inside I found a vintage postcard of SAN DIEGO ...weird huh? also there was this bus that was covered with broken glass and tile...And squirrels! I do admit they were creepy.

WOW. :)
ANYWAYS TOMMORROW I GO TO NYC I CANT WAIT WOOOOP WOOOOP
READY TO TRAVEL ;)
