sweet home alabama

this film makes me fucking cry every goddamn time.
'he got a daddy named forrest too?'

SHOES.


everyone's all bird print and chunky heels atm but i just love these miu miu flats. mostly because those strapped heels will give me le fat ankle syndrome. the legs are short as it is...



FRABULOUS. jonathan kelsey's 'the franz'

THINGS I'VE GOT GOING ON ATM.

1. my slammin' body. NAHT. but i'm working on that.
2. listening to recovery. eminem is a lyrical master. 'i'm lightning in a skillet you're a flash in the pan' jesus christ.
3. reading vladimir nabokov's lolita - i expected to be thoroughly disturbed but it's not obscene at all. well, in the sense that there aren't swear words and shit, but there are descriptions of 'nymphlets' that are a little disconcerting. so far, good read.
4. reading atonement by ian mcewan. not terribly captivating. but i might be doing it next year so i've got to try.
5. writing a gothic short story for some comp at school. might do two, one serious and one parody.

'In the corner of this dank grotto lay a chest. Unadorned, with a simple brass lock, cracked open. She brushed the lock with her bloodied hand and a shriek came from within the worn wood, fading as quickly as it had come. Dare she open it? Father Michael had warned her against these forest caves. ‘Full of tortured souls,’ he had said, but it was too late now, for the small, pale hand had unclasped the chest, and then she was gone. Taken.'

letters.
i can't even write what i'm feeling today. i want to say all these things and i can't. it's like an emptiness. which is filled with pain and anger. see, it doesn't make sense. i just want to sleep it all away. i want to wake up to find that things are nice and that you might be there.

these earrings are my favourite :D




on an unrelated note, i have to get a new battery soon, mine's at 33% of original capacity :(

just awake and being alive and such

just watched superbad - i love that fucking film. i'd forgotten how much i loved it but it is hilarious. and i'm just lying here, chillin'. in bed. yeah i like my bed. i jam in my bed. i like to lie here and have elaborate daydreams when i should be working. thinking up scraps of words for things to write. i have a gothic writing contest at college which i'm going to enter - the shit we came up with in english was fucking brilliant - a faceless werewolf ninja and a dungeon under a church and some shit like that. got my nails done with OPI's bling dynasty, two coats. a third would have made it solid but i kind of like this inbetweeny sheer you can only see when you hold up to the light. lots of things have changed but i think almost all of it has been nice. and that's good because no-one is nice anymore. that sounds ridiculous. but everyone's angry. but that's alright because everyone can be nice. and that's good. and everything is always nicer when everyone else is asleep and i'm just alone with my thoughts and the sound of silence shall we say. i'm going to start reading lolita by vladimir nabokov tomorrow when i get home from george's. i've been meaning to read it since i remember it being mentioned in an adrian mole book, and i got it out of the library. and i got atonement by ian mcewan out as well. this summer is going to be largely dominated by gothic literature and drinking. perhaps not at the same time.

more shiny new stuff.

things i bought at debenhams;

henry holland playsuit, £10 sale.



topshop sunglasses, £15.



two sets of rings, topshop, £5 per trio.



t-b; pearl and gold ring, black and grey portraiture ring, black rose ring


l-r; owl ring, Love ring [topshop], gold and silver bands [topshop] and my sapphire and diamond ring from thailand which is probably the most expensive thing i own.

doubletone tights, topshop, £4 sale.



i'm having a ring thing right now. was going to buy a blue dress like the playsuit but decided against it. also wanted marl trackies from topshop but they're kind of a maybe. mmm i'm chilled atm. got some maths homework to do but i'm still chilllll. life is nice.

PAMELA MANN AND OPI

RECENTLY.

i bought sheer seamed holdups and large diamond nets from pamela mann - happy with the large nets. the holdups haven't got a lot of elastic so i might have to sew/glue the gummed straps onto the inside, or start using a garter belt.





i also got O.P.I's Bling Dynasty from the Hong Kong collection - i wanted suzy says feng shui too, but meh. i did my nails last night though, so i'm going to wait a couple of days to do the new mani.

DSQUARED AND TWO AND A HALF MEN

aren't they beautiful? i think they come in an ankle boot version too. i'm so in love with intricate heels - the mcqueen tooled piece metal heels were stunning, and these are iiinnncredible.

first day back at college. went out in bare legs and flip flops. it got cold and windy :(

so lately

postsecret <3

life has been nice. i got an open day slot at oxford - st hilda's is obviously not my first choice, but it's still going to be great. i forgot to apply for the LSE summer school since i don't check my email :/ it doesn't matter anyway. i actually feel like i did well in my exams. and i'm just really, really happy.

about a girl

ahhh lovely coupliesss

the camera disappeared before any of us got too drunk so to my surprise, there's nothing that's too horrendoussss. we spent four hours talking about moles XD







'i asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would i yes to say yes my mountain flower and first i put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes i said yes i will yes.'

read some of ulysses in my english exam when i was flicking through joyce's dubliners. my mother is in bruges for the weekend. that sounds completely wankerygobshite. regardless, i have a free house, but i'm not going to do much with it. i went out last night and the night before, so i feel this weekend will be some kind of recovery mode. when photos come up i can show you my degradation.

songs of the moment;

and i remember every kiss - jens lekman
i'm ready - jack's mannequin
rainy monday - shiny toy guns
songs about rain - gary allan
hong kong - gorillaz

l-r; top row - bling dynasty, red my fortune cookie, a good man-darin is hard to find, dim sum plum, jade is the new black, suzy says feng shui
l-r; bottom row - hot & spicy, lucky lucky lavender, meet me on the star ferry, panda-monium pink, pearl of wisdom, chop-sticking to my story

mmmmmmmm.

look at his nerdy face/hat/jumper/face
<3



O HAI I'M OBAMA. look at that smug face.


i'm in a good mood today.

stuffdeduff

this is my new favourite bag ever. so i made tetris shorts with the studs i ordered off ebay. i can't wait to stud everything in sight. georgia's birthday yesterday - we all went to see SATC2 on curzon street. sipped sex on the beach and laughed my arse off. what little arse there is, at any rate.

the warden makes house calls.

i'm so tired. i've done no revision for almost a week now. i should start. my exams are on monday onwards until thursday. i don't want to do them, but i don't want to fail either. i feel like cheese puffs, or whirls, or something. cheesy puffy corn baked produucts
i don't know. my fingers hurt from studding. i'm going out with george and rachel to see SATC2 for pootle's birthday. SJP was pretty much the only one in a decent dress at the premiere - Halston Heritage always looks good on her. i'm excited for the dresses. mm watching girl, interrupted again and daisy's just hung herself. i love this film.



WHY DOES MY HEART GO ON BEATING, WHY DO THESE EYES OF MINE CRY. DON'T THEY KNOW IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD, IT ENDED WHEN YOU SAID GOODBYE.

SHOES!

mmm aren't they pretty.



girl, interrupted is also now one of my favourite films. i'm going to watch a bunch of brat pack movies now

白頭人送黑頭人

when the white-haired bury the black-haired. i think about this sometime and perhaps this is why i don't want children. i am terrified of losing people close to me and if i ever had to bury my own child i think i'd probably die.
