Past Few Days

I've been on a roll over the past few days with my iPhoneography, so I thought I'd share my latest (maybe not greatest) instagram shots!

Insta-Food

No this post does not refer to microwaveable food.. Instead it refers to all the yummy food photos I've taken via instagram! Follow me @RemainKathryn!

SoCal

Over break, my dad and I flew down to Southern California to look at Pomona, USC, and UCLA. After visiting, my clear favorite was Pomona. It was adorable and the students there were so down-to-earth, friendly, interesting, and incredibly bright. Here are some photos from the trip!

Went to Louise's in Santa Monica with my dad for dinner after visiting Pomona. He showed me where he used to live after grad school and we also drove through downtown LA! For dinner I got chicken and veggies... no-fail meal =)

Waiting for the tour at UCLA. The campus was gorgeous, the people were friendly, and the location (10 minutes from the beach, 10 seconds from LA) was perfect. Thrifted belt and shoes

The Andrew Carnegie building at Pomona College. I adored everything about that school, even though the Econ class I sat in on within this building was difficult to follow...

The comment bulletin board at one of Pomona's cafeterias. They had amazing food by the way... so all the comments were positive!

A peaceful spot in the Pomona dorms.

Although USC wasn't my favorite college, they did have gorgeous buildings. This one was probably paid for by a single SC family.

Another gorgeous USC building.

Had to take this one... (USC)

Yesterday night, Andon and I made lemon chicken and croutons from scratch! It was a fun and intimate alternative from going out to dinner, and it certainly ended up tasting fantastic.

Christmas time is here

I have had a wonderful Christmas season this year. From the festivities to the family to the food to the gifts, it has all been smooth sailing for the past week or so. Here are some of the photos that I have taken in the past few days (most of which with my new 50mm lens!) Enjoy!

Home-made pumpkin bread... I could eat a whole thing of it if I wasn't such a health nut
