Post 51.

1. my name is Devin Nicole Ruiz. i pronounce my last name incorrectly and sometimes i wish my name was devinare, or something a tad more interesting.

2. i've had a vanity fair subscription since freshman year and i've read ever issue (most beginning to end) since then and one i hope to write for them. 

3. i want to go into magazine journalism, editing, or advertising. but i secretly would love to be a wedding planner. 

4. i use to paint a painting every month, or every other month. i haven't painted in a little over 6. i wish i had more money to purchase new paint and a piece of wood to paint on. 

5. i might move into my own apartment this summer and the most exciting thing about it, is getting to decorate it how i like. i already have a mental image of what it would look like. 

6. i want to have a lemon tree, an orange tree and an avocado tree. 

7. i drink at least 24oz of tea a day. 

8. i love my diana f+ and i wish i had a flash. it made me sad when urban started selling dianaF+ clones. some of the best conversations are started when someone asks me what kind of camera i have. 

9. i have so many clothes they don't fit in my closet. i also have rows of shoes, yet i never seem to have an outfit. 

10. my mom's friend gave me a marc jacobs purse and i have yet to worn it out, i view it as a piece of art. seriously. 

11. i love making videos and setting it to music. 

12. one day last spring i jumped into a pool with all my clothes on and my bester friend der followed after me. that moment sealed our friendship and we stayed in the water for 20minutes. 

13. i live in west hollywood and no matter how far it is from people i wouldn't change it for the world. i've loved growing up here and i know i'm going to miss it. 

14. there's a path near griffith park that i've nicknamed 'the end'. my friend and i would drive up there and sit in his cars for hours and just watch the sunset. i want to take more people up there but i'm afraid it won't be the same. 

15. sometimes i take the car and drive to the roof of parking structures. once i'm up there i read, listen to music, and look over the edge to map out where i've been and driven. 

16. every time i pass downtown and i have a camera, i take a picture. one day i'm going to make a painting. 

17. i love cooking and trying different recipes, even though i only use them as guidelines. 

18. i save all my emails from barrack obama. 

19. i read very fast. yesterday i finished a book in a few hours and it was amazing.

20. i want to learn guitar and start a band, with myself. 

21. i love "single ladies" by beyonce and lately it's been stuck in my head, constantly.

22. i want to work at 'the icon' 

23. i miss my instax and buying a new one only made me miss mine more. wrong place, wrong time. 

24. every week since my friend has been up at stanford i've made him a mix and sent it to him. i wonder if i will go through my whole itunes library by the time he comes home.

25. i believe everything happens for a reason.
