Mom, Why did you make me go to kindergarten twice?

im bored at home with no family, so tonight i went through the garage to see what i could find. i found old paintings i did when i was 7, old science projects (none as awesome as the eggo science fair of 2008), and then i found my kindergarten diplomaS. yes, plural. i used to get mad at my mom for making me go twice, cuz you know, who goes to kindergarten twice? but now i understand what she was doing. she was getting me ready for my future education process. kindergarten was so fun, why not do it twice? college was so fun, why not do it twice?

Home Alone, Miami--starring me

At first, I was sad my parents were leaving me home alone while they sailed around asia without me. then i got here and i loved it. now im sad again and i miss my mommy and daddy. i hope nobody tries to rob my house because i dont think im as smart as kevin mccalister.

Who's got my Heady Triumphant Return?

Some of you might have noticed I haven't posted much recently. I've just been so busy...
What a long strange trip it's been...

alli wins.

so alli's been bothering me to be obsessed w/ taylor swift like she is. and i would tell her she was a dork. then i heard this song and now im obsessed with her too.

my replacement parents...

for the next 17 days. im the luckiest.

Jessica and I had HUGE plans

unfortunately we missed the registration and we're not in high school anymore. but don't worry. we'll probably still do it anyways.

The important things.

My parents are in asia and my dad just got a new phone. not the best combination. that means he's regularly sending me really insightful emails like thisafter calling him a weirdo i responded with an even more must-respond-asap-even-though-you're-on-the-other-side-of-the-world email. keep in mind this is the 3rd (4th including my mom) member of the kaplan family that alli has inquired about the missing cookies to. and keep in mind that im not in miami.it turns out alyne used the cookies for her holiday baskets and alli will go to bed unsatisfied for the second night in a row.

Finally!

So i know dogs will eat anything, but leroy literally would eat ANYTHING. sometimes we (jenn) feeds him stuff dogs normally dont like, just to see if he'd actually it eat. and he always does. however today, after 3 years 3 months and 8 days of his existence, he said no to a piece of lettuce! i can't believe it. i never thought i'd see the day where he'd turn down food. don't worry he did manage to lick off all the dressing without eating the actual green.

snow!

i've been in ny long enough now to appreciate the ridiculously GIGANTIC gorgeous snowflakes that are falling down right now. but still, miami here we come!

clearly facebook seems to be the ultimate outlet to discuss how you feel about the snow:however, we prefer you comment right here on your favorite blog.

Jenn's Dream Dessert #9 & 10

As some of you might know (if you know what's good for you) our dear friend Jessica has recently found her calling as a cake decorator.
So, it should have been no surprise that her sugar-buzz lead her to these psychedelic treats.

Jenn's Dream Store #8

Thanks Jessi!

Lex Cries #287

Alexis cried in Gossip Girl last night.

what a silly munchkin

Overheard at Ray's

so last night i went to grab a slice at the pizza place on houston and ludlow. it was like 8ish or so and these awesome two little girls were in front of me in line. they looked SUPER young but they were totally little badasses w/ all that thick eyeliner. anyways, this is how it went down:

awesome teenage badass: ya so we're at the hookah bar across the street and i left my id there so can you just give me a drink?
pizza man: seriously? you're not even 18.
awesome teenage badass: uhhh ya ok whatever im 19!

BoA! BoA! BoA!

I finally made it in the TRL studios and got to see the TRL photo booth and all the celeb photos. 25 year old age limit my ass.
(photo cred: alex "vagina baby" uhlmann)

Unfortunately, there no longer is TRL. But lucky for me, Margot got me in to see BoA, the most ginormous pop star in all of Asia tape her US debut. it was so fun. the kids inside totally went nutty for her. kinda like how i'll be march 13th for brit... (and so will you jelsen...)(photo cred:margot)

kim, ill find out where you can get her black tight from the knee down baggy from the knee up built in knee pads covered in crazy zippers pants she was wearing.

Jenn's Dream Fire # 7

Oh tie-dye you make everything more beautiful.

To set my heart a-flame, cast this enchanting spell on me.

Don't Make me Go on a TYRAde.

EW. She gives birthday's a bad name. I now have to be celibate end of feb/beginning of march of every year to ensure I don't get knocked up with some kid who might have It-Which-Shall-Not-be -Named's birthday. (sorry sally)

a little peek into my search history reveals the truth...

Happy Birthday Tyra!!

As most of you know, Jenn is Tyra's #1 fan. There's no other person on this planet that jenn respects more. She aspires to mimic Tyra's stellar personality every day of her life. She tunes in to the Tyra Banks show everyday to learn from tyra; get a little whif of her wisdom.

Today Tyra is one year older. This ones for you Jenny!

Jenn's Dream Daughter #6

Sadly, her father did not seem to think it was a dream come true that I was photographing his child. I wonder how he feels about me posting this on the internet...
