Back From Wisconsin!

Sorry for the long break, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to connect to our hotel's wireless internet! Anyway, I went to Wisconsin for a quick trip with my parents! I took so many photos! Here are some from the trip!

Wisconsin 369 Wisconsin 015 Wisconsin 379

Wisconsin 301 Wisconsin 318

Wisconsin 032 Wisconsin 222

Wisconsin 238 Wisconsin 377

Tomorrow I'll post photos from the amazing House On The Rock! It was the craziest house/museum I've ever seen (this guy collected everything.... I mean everything)! Hope you had a wonderful week!

Star Wars In Concert

Last night, I went to see Star Wars In Concert! I personally had never seen any of the movies, but just in case some of you are fans, I thought I'd post some photos.
The whole experience was very good, even for a non-fan like me! The guy who voiced C3PO narrated the entire thing, and did a very classy job. They also had a ton of exhibits to look at in the lobby, although in all honesty, it was more fun watching all of the fans in costume mill about.
Not the best photos in the world, but it was very crowded, so I just snapped quick photos to let the true fans through!
Otherwise, yesterday was a crazy day! I drove 6-hours round-trip to school to spend all of four hours there! As soon as I got home, I went to the concert, then I was so exhausted that I pretty much just went to bed! Trying to catch up on a few things today... probably a run to the library is necessary.

My World

I thought I ought to do a feautre of my own home towards the start of this blog! My favourite thing about my house is certainly my backyard! It had this lovely wooded area full of birds and squirrels.

I have a million things to do today, so I'm keeping the post nice and short! Hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July weekend!

Current Obsession: Doctor Who

Hello! I thought it was high time I talked about something nerdy, so I want to start off with my obsession of the moment: Doctor Who. For those who don't know (it's not as popular in the United States as it is in England), Doctor Who is an amazing television show about a man, called only "The Doctor," who travels through time and space. Generally, he finds peril wherever/whenever he lands, and has to help save the day. It may sound too "sci-fi" for some of you, but give it a chance. The sci-fi aspects aren't the feature of the show, but more the medium. I was in London when the current season (the fifth) began, and I was instantly hooked. It's easy enough to jump in, but I am also watching the whole thing from season 1. It's on Netflix for instant view for those of you who are interested!



David Tennant played the Doctor in seasons 2-4, and is, from what I can tell, the fan-favourite.



This is Amy Pond, the girl who travels around with the current Doctor (played by the impressive Matt Smith). I simply adore her! Her hair is nothing short of gorgeous!

Otherwise, things are normal here. I went to a friend's birthday celebration. I wore one of my favourite new dresses, a blue strapless number from Stradivarius, along with a peach sweater from H&M. Here is a cute photo of us from the party (I'm on the left). You can see my purse from Harrods in the back, hehe!

Hope to post some new photos from around town soon!

Getting Started


Hello, out there! I decided to start this blog as a way to document my attempts to be as classy as possible. I will discuss everything from books I'm reading to the outfits I'm wearing (hence the NERD and COUTURE). Hopefully, I will also share some photos I will take along the way!

Today, some of my friends and I went to the local zoo for out annual zoo day!

Look at all the koi! We fed them, and they went crazy!

Very pretty flowers! There was a lot of orange today.


Me riding the carousel! Wearing a skirt from Stradivarius that I just adore.

I just love going to the zoo! Seeing all of the animals is exciting, plus it's just a wonderful way to catch-up with friends. Walking around really gives you a lot of time to chat.

I'll be seeing you around!<>
