My not-so-strange addiction

I have come to realize that I, Olivia Perry, love donuts.

I have become Homer Simpson. I crave them and if one is in my sight, I have to eat it. It’s not my fault. In fact, I know the exact culprit, the source of my ailment:

Legendary Donuts.

It all started one day in the Piano Lounge of the Wheelock Student Center when I was introduced to these donuts. I got to try this glazed donut with glittery, bright pink frosting on it, called the Tinkerbell, and about died. Oh my gosh it was so good! What a glorious day!

After that, I realized: I love donuts. Nay, I am ADDICTED to donuts!

That may be dramatic, but I did go on St. Patrick’s day and purchase 13, including a special green donut.

How it works is that they have three levels of donuts:

Amateur: which include old fashioned, glaze, maple bars, cinnamon, ooo and chocolate glaze on a chocolate cake donut (YUM!)

Famous: This is wear it starts to get real fancy:

Captain Crunch: Vanilla glaze w/ Captain Crunch

Steve Urkel: Glazed sprinkled with nerds

Cookies and Cream: Vanilla glaze covered in crushed Oreo cookies

Albert Einstein: Smothered in chocolate covered w/ coconut  

Black and Tan w/ Guiness Beer: We have replaced the water with beer to create a delicious, rich, malty cake doughnut

Charlie Brown: Chocolate cake smothered with peanut butter and drizzled w/chocolate 

And now…

LEGENDARY:

Hot Cocoa: Covered in chocolate, filled w/ whipped crème and topped w/ marshmallows

Pig Pen: Chocolate glaze with chocolate cookie crumbs and gummy worm

Elvis: Peanut butter smothered all over and then topped w/ banana chips

Scarlet O’ Hara: Red velvet cake doughnut w/ dollop of creme cheese frosting and a dark chocolate cigarette

Oh, and there are so much more!

Heres the website with the menu and locations and EVERYTHING!

Now, a couple of pictures of some donuts I’ve had:

I’m With the Band

Here at Puget Sound, CMN (the Campus Music Network on campus) hosts a recording sesh once a year at a local recording studio. Students can sign up for a recording slot to show off their stuff on their own or with a band. This year, I tagged along with some friends and acted as “unofficial photographer” and got an awesome behind the scenes look at some very talented students at work!

He Loves Me…?

Just finished up another quick stop-motion video for my 3D art class! This one was supposed to surround the progression and regression of time. Enjoy!

Mom Knows Best

I’ve been stressing out pretty bad lately. It’s almost the end of the year, and EVERYTHING is due… so I really needed a little pick me up! Guess who knew the best thing to send me was a video of baby animals sleeping? My super awesome mom. Enjoy, and don’t stress!

Fresh and Witty

Video making runs in the family! My cousin, Christopher, designs logos and makes commercials for companies. He graduated with a degree in Graphic Design from the University of Long Beach, California. I was just sent a link to the latest commercial he designed–a musical commercial for Fresh & Easy markets! Pretty clever, I’d say.

Everything is Cooler in Space

Upon one of my usual late-night-weekend-webernet-browsings, I came across this.

Thank you, Internet.

Simplicitea

We’re trying something a little experimental in my 3D art class right now. Our assignment was to take 60 pictures documenting the passing of time and put them together in a 1 minute movie. I chose to take pictures of a trip to one of my favorite cafes right off campus. I give you, Simplicitea!

Killer Queens

This past Friday, the Queer Alliance here on campus hosted the 11th annual Drag Show! It was hosted by a FABULOUS queen from Seattle, La Saveona Hunt, and all proceeds from ticket/shirt/poster sales went to Puget Sound’s LGBTQ Leadership Scholarship. The show featured some fantastic talent, including the hostess!

Drag queens and kings alike gave incredibly entertaining lip-syncing performances, sporting fancy outfits and some very punny names–Miss Chievious, Faye Cial, Milky Brown, Sirius Lee, and more! There were even some quick changes between queens because of costume jealousy.

The hostess wanted Faye’s dress… so she borrowed it!

Puget Sound’s only co-ed A Capella group also performed, out of drag, but they were awesome too! They pulled out a love song on the spot, per the request of La Saveona!

Another professional queen, a good friend of La Saveona, performed a few exciting numbers as well–Anita Brick!

I had a blast with my friends and I’m so proud to be a part of such a supportive and accepting community. Can’t wait to go again next year!
