Hipsters on a Roof

Well, the content of this post is pretty much exactly what the title suggests.

Here are some photos.  Of hipsters... on a roof.

Where did I see these hipsters of glory?  And, how did I get an aerial shot of them on a roof?  Skill, my friends.  I learned how to fly the other day. Okay, that's a lie, obviously.  But, I really did shoot them from above.  I was on a bridge.  The Manhattan Bridge, to be exact.  This man and woman were on a rooftop below, on the Brooklyn side.  There were a few shockingly warm days in the middle of this week, and I decided to take advantage of my thursday by actually walking home from Manhattan.  Yes, this is an insanely long walk, and yes, I did bail once I got to the Atlantic-Pacific Station, about a half an hour away from my apartment.  However, I did make it over the bridge.  It was beautiful... but, more about that in tomorrow's post!

Seriously, though.  Check out this guy's glasses!  Both pairs...

Tea makes me so happy.

Honestly- I just like hot drinks in general.  Tea, coffee, cider, it's all great. A pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks always brightens up my day.

But, coffee doesn't have the same quality as tea.  Tea makes me feel classy, refined, girly.  I either feel desperately British or Asian, depending on whether I'm drinking black or green.  Green makes me feel rejeuvanated, black wakes me up.  As a matter of fact, I'm sitting here typing this with a nice mug full of ginger peach green tea.  Yummy.

Tea motifs feel so delicate, so feminine in style.  Tiny china cups with dainty flowers, toile prints, slices of lemon, and sugar cubes are all so delightful.

Inspiring, even. 

The Future's So Bright

You'll have to wear shades! My shades should be bright colors!  Actually, I haven't worn any brightly colored shades in years.  I've been leaning towards faux Ray-Bans as of late, in black.  The classic-ness of them appeals to me, but I'm afraid it does make me look a tad bit hipstery.  Ah, well.  I do live in Brooklyn after all.

Concerning the future- it certainly is looking bright.  My job here in Beach Haven ends in just a few days, then I go to visit my parents in West Grove for a little less than a week.  Back to Brooklyn on the 30th, then to Maine for four days to visit my grandparents!  Things are lining up so nicely.  Not to mention the amazing West Village Halloween celebrations that I try to frequent every year (this year shall be no exception).  Maybe I won't get stuck in the middle of a street brawl this year...

In other fabulous news, I am coming back to Beach Haven to be in a play here at Surflight Theatre, the Surflight Holiday Spectacular.  Not only that, they have offered me my equity card!  I'll become a full member of the stage actor's union.  As of now I have accepted with open arms.  I've reconsideered a few times... I may decide not to take it in the end, but right now it seems to be a good idea.  I'm also just happy to be returning to Beach Haven- I love this little town.  It's so charming, especially in the off season when all of the tourists are back at home.

The third photograph is of my sister, the lovely Julianna Buck.  The fourth one is of my mom, the gorgeous Joan Buck.

Have I ever mentioned that my little sister is gorgeous??

This is her.  Studying for AP Statistics.  She's a senior in high school now, which is just crazy to me.  Just about as crazy as the fact that I'm done college.  Sheesh time flies.  Anyway, here she is, studying away, looking stunning on my family's lovely porch overgrown with pink roses. Amazing.
