This is the first holiday season in five years that I haven’t been abroad. Restless is an understatement. I need a new adventure. - Milford Sounds, New Zealand.

“I like too many things and get all confused and hung up running from one falling star to another till I drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I have nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.”

Just a bunch of Donnas. The story behind the themed party? Conception: 
Boppster found a personalized pastel pink Donna mug at a yard sale. Together with roommates and friends, they created different personas of who this Donna character could be - “just a small town girl with big city dreams…” An idea was pitched that this year’s Christmas party be Donna themed, and everyone was to show up decked in their version of this fine mythical creature. 
Pictured above: race car Donna, avant-garde Donnas and contemporary Christian singer Donna (the bump it was replaced with a Kpop-esque wig as the night progressed).

“What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? - it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-by. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.”

-Can’t believe it’s taken me all these years to read On the Road. Kerouac speaks to my restless soul.
