[ 6 picks ] stripey

when i first moved into this house 5 years ago, i was not a happy camper. i was a high school senior, but moving to a different county. luckily, i didn't have to switch schools but i still had to "commute" up 29 (our local highway). and what should've been a 20min drive always became closer 40 because of traffic. and oh, how i LOATHE traffic.

the day we moved in, to make myself feel better (and to avoid going nuts), i painted my room. it was this hideously tacky green. i don't even know how to describe what kind of green. but trust me it was bad. so i went to home depot and picked out my paints. all the walls are an offwhite leaning towards pink except for one wall, which i painted in mango and a-bit-darker-than-bubblegum pink stripes. yummz.

for my 6 picks today, i've compiled six stripey goodies for you~ woohoo!
