Hair

Last year I cut my hair off. It was kind of a big deal for me because I was so attached to my long hair! The thought of even cutting off an inch would make me tear up.
Then one day I woke up and realized ... Isn't that silly?
So I went over to a hair salon and offered myself as a hair model for someone in training. I told him to cut it off above my chin so I can donate it. That way, I was able to give the person in training some practice, and someone who needed hair, a nice long wig. It felt good to let go of something I loved and to give it to someone else.

My hair grew back pretty quickly since then so what was I so afraid of? Have you ever let go of something that meant a lot to you?

Sunday Night Camp Out

Me and Matty needed a day off from working so we decided to build a tent and camp out in the wild (a.k.a. our living room).


We drank hot chocolate, hiked around the apartment, watched movies, put out our fire, and fell asleep in our tent..

I hope we make it back alive.

Saturday

Grandma then,
Grandma now.

From now on, whenever I'm feeling down, I will look at these two pictures and remind myself that life is too short to be unhappy.

Friday

Didn't fit me then,
and doesn't fit me now.
But somehow my little brother can make my dad's coat look fly.

Chocolate

Last night all my dreams came true...
 I went to a chocolate carnival!
I must admit, I'm a pretty serious chocoholic. I eat chocolate with every meal as if it's a side dish of vegetables. 
All the sculptures were made of chocolate. I had to refrain myself from diving head first into the chocolate ferris wheel with my mouth open. 

While picking up my coat to leave I heard the most terrible thing, the coat check people weren't allowed to enjoy any of the sweets! So I made it my mission to go back into the party and sneak them out the goods ;)

Matty finished editing the No Pants video last night. I can't stop watching it, the reactions are hilarious!

I went up to the roof of this building today and shot some photos of the city.
The higher up you are, the more the city looks like one big lego set.

legos!

No Pants Subway Ride!

It was freezing and snowing out but it didn't stop at least 1,200 people from coming and taking their pants off in the subway!





The reactions from strangers were so wonderful.

After the train ride, everyone came outside to dance, build pyramids, and play simon says in the snow. How crazy and fun!

I was accidently sent a monkey costume today. Can a mistake get any more fun?
The mailman handed me a bag with no name on it but assured me that it was mine. It was filled with new baby clothes, a little note, and an awesome monkey costume.
Hopefully someone will realize and come pick it up. But if not, I don't mind wearing the ears as a winter hat ;)

Wednesday

One of my favorite Improv Everywhere missions that I've shot is "Human Mirror". We filled a subway car with 18 pairs of identical twins and half of them sat on one side of the subway car and the other half sat on the opposite side creating a human mirror. 

All the twins met us at a park wearing the same exact outfits. I've only seen 1 pair of identical twins in my life so being around 16 pairs made my head explode, I couldn't stop laughing!

They shared some awesome stories about times they switched places as kids. It made me think of how badly I wished I had a twin when I was little. I used to wish that I had one but we were separated at birth and maybe we would bump into each other one day!
The Human Mirror!

I'm still very sick!



Luckily, there's a lot of fun things to do when waiting for the doctor.

Saturday is the 8th annual no pants subway ride!




The meeting place is at Foley square at 3pm. 900 hundred people came last year and it was a blast. If you're in NYC and comfortable with being in your undies then you should come! Me and Matty will be photographing/filming the event so come and say hi, I'd love to meet you!

Moozilla!

Tulip Juice

I haven't been feeling well so Matty brought me home these wonderful tulips!
They make lovely hats.
Matty couldn't find a vase so he put them in our juicer. Now, whenever I get thirsty I can just reach over for a fresh cup of tulip juice!
;)
