are you a real life model? you should be.
I am not a real life model, but you’re super sweet for thinking I could be!
I have some pretty nice pictures of myself that were taken by friends of mine who are photographers, but I’ve never actually been paid to model. If I was (and if I was paid well), I would buy a big Tumblr mansion in each major city for me and all of...

where did you get the name ‘splendid really’ from? i love it!
Thank you! :) I’m glad you like it.
My friend Jackie actually introduced me to an old SNL clip where Will Ferrell’s character answers a tiny little cellphone and says, “Hello? Really? Splendid. How fast can you have your bags packed for Milan?” And her and I began using the phrase...

first thought when you look in the mirror?
Oh geez, it depends on when I look in the mirror!
As with (I think) most people, sometimes I think I look a hot mess and sometimes I think I look real cute - either way I’m mostly comfortable with the way I look. Although I wouldn’t hate it if I woke up with Blake Lively’s boobs.

If you could be a tiger, a snake, a crane, a monkey, or a dragon, which would you choose and why?
Sexcellent question! I’d say a tiger, because they’re beautiful and powerful and generally in good shape.
Close second is a monkey because they’re wicked cute :)

since it seems like you read alot, which books would you say are the top 3 reads? (I love to read as well)
Oh man, oh man - this is such a tough question for me! This may not come out as exactly three books, but I’ll give you some of my favorites.
Firstly, I love Wally Lamb - I first read his novel, “She’s Come Undone”, when I was maybe twelve years old...

why are you so pretty? :]
Excuse my answering this question with a question, but WHY ARE YOU SO WONDERFUL?! :)
I could take a minute to be really self-effacing, but instead I’ll say that I am “so pretty” because you think I am and I thank you kindly for it - people like you make my day :)

Formspring Fail.
So I really want to jump on this Formspring bandwagon, but I’ve barely participated and I’m afraid I already suck at it.
First of all, I’m afraid if I do it myself, nobody will ask me questions and then I’ll have to make up some to ask myself that I can then answer in a way that makes me look witty and cool enough to actually have people ask me questions!
Secondly,...
Google Alert - Black People
Aaron: This just in - the new HP facial recognition security software doesn't work for Black people because "there is insufficient foreground lighting".
Me: What?! iPhoto would never be so racist!
Aaron: I know! It's all over the news.
Me: I'm so surprised I didn't hear about this on Twitter! That's like my go-to news source.
Aaron: A woman of your culture should have her ear to the ground on these matters! Just sayin'.
Me: I have a Google Alert set up for "Black People news" - I don't know how this slipped past me!

Mom: I still wanna see that football movie! That one with the big kid and Sandra Bullock. My boyfriend still hasn't taken me to see it. Gah, my boyfriend is so stupid.

Mine is: The Ashley Simpson of Cape May. I don’t get it. Is that supposed to be an insult?

I Should Start Calling THIS Blog "All Things...
Mom: Who originally posted that "don't get married if you're gonna cheat" blog? Was that that cute girl from Georgia?
Me: Yup! That was Alishan.
Mom: She's so cute. I was laughing my ass off!
Me: I know - she's hilarious.
Mom: And tell her to add me on Facebook!
Me: She hasn't added you? Did you request to add her?
Mom: Oh no, I don't know how to do that.

Exciting news!
So today I am going to the Los Angeles Auto Show per Mazda’s request to check out their new Mazda2, which is actually not even for sale until next fall!
Now don’t get it twisted, Mazda doesn’t actually consider me to be any kind of reputable or influential blogger (even though I’m sure all of you do). I just happen to work for the marketing agency that is...
