The Unlikely Hipster

First post of the year!! Wait, it's May! Ohh... Obviously my life has been much less blog-worthy in recent months. It's mostly just a bunch of homework these days. And driving. I feel like I live in my car some days. 

Anywhoo,

Today, I'd like to inform you of a disturbing revelation. I'm a hipster. Now, I know you're thinking... 'Oh, Andrea, you are so not a hipster!' But, oh, I am.

My cousin showed me this video a few weeks back, take a sec and watch this:


Funny, huh?! You're probably still wondering where I'm going with this. 

I was driving one day (remember, I do a lot of that these days!) and thinking about how funny this video was. As I began to think about what makes a hipster a hipster, I realized that I have some of the same qualifications!!

1. I have skinny jeans, not because I purchase them specifically, but I'm just too chubby to fit into my jeans without them looking a little 'skinny'. 
2. V-necks. I don't know if you've noticed, but I've got one in nearly every color. Darn you Old Navy, they're just so cozy!
3. I love Bon Iver! I'm even listening to him right this moment! This is maybe my favorite:


If you liked that one (or if you didn't), here's another fav:



4. Mustaches - I have one. Okay, I'm a girl so it's technically called 'upper lip hair'. Come on ladies, let's be real. It's a mustache. Stand up proud and admit you wax it off too!!

Mustache AND V-neck?! Whoa!

5. #Facebook #Instagram - Okay, social media in general - I perhaps am a little too involved here sometimes. Chill out with the Facebook already, Andrea!!

Okay, but seriously, so I'm not your typical hipster.

"It controls your need to look, act, think like everyone else, ultimately resulting in you looking, acting, and thinking like everyone else."

But here's the thing, I'm not trying to be like anyone else! I'm just being me. So maybe that makes me the best kind of hipster! =P

Until next time...
