Crash into Me

As of late, it seems my head's been a mess.
I thought after certain events too place my perfect world would gradually begin to re-materialise in front of me. But still, Nothing.
So being slightly frustrated with myself, I spent the day curled up in bed, listening to music and trying with all my might to work out why the world still seems grey.

Crash into me - Dave Matthews Band
(Cover by Tim & Jean)

You've got your ball
You've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
In you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
And sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you

Listening to this today, I begin to realise how much some people affect me.
It's funny when you think about it, really; that looks, actions, and the words of other people, however seemingly insignificant can shape who you are and the person you will become.

Who I'll become....

When people are asked what they want to become, immediately 'occupations' are assumed. For me though, I don't think this is really the case. The things I hope for aren't always as clear-cut.
Don't get me wrong, a lot are. But then again, there are always other things that I find we tend to take for granted, that others don't have.

Sanity

Clarity

Courage

and Love.

If I can find these things in my life, at some point, be it sparingly or not, I would die a happy woman. Ah yes, The pursuit of happiness: Harder than expected.
But more desired than anything the world has to offer.

Tight and Bright.

Instead of doing my Japanese homework (once again), today I decided I wanted to be more creative! So, in my search to both relieve the 'struggling artist' within and to procrastinate doing anything even remotely productive I decided to create designs for some tights I'd love to wear.
Why thights, you ask? Well there are many reasons:

1.Despite Winter (in offcial terms) almost coming to a close, it's still bloody freezing (!) and at this point in time tights are really the only constant element in every single outfit I wear.

2. I have too many pairs of tights!!! Just plain, black tights... and to be honest when you wear the same thing over and over, it gets boring. So why not re-decorate them??

3. I had a dream~
No, not one of those super inspiring 'political movement' dreams like Martin Luther King, just a regular dream, in which I was flying around at a royal ball in space wearing a combination of black 'armour-style' corset and flowing tu-tu... (Kinda what you'd expect if you went to see Darth Vadar in STARWARS-the ballet.) The coolest thing though was my tights, which were black with gold, silver and black sequins and beads scattered across them so that as I moved around they became stars in the night sky. -YEAP, JUST A COMPLETELY REGULAR, TOTALLY NORMAL DREAM :

(It was cool though)
Anyhow, as a result I've done my reaserach and gathered all that is needed for my tights-rennovation escapade!

TIGHTS!
Sequins
Beads
Fabric glue
Sewing kit-With black thread
Cardboard (to stick inside and keep the tights taught when im glueing away)

I plan to spend the entirety of tomorrow on them and hopefully have them ready to wear by my friends wonderful birthday on Saturday, and yeah, that means you'll all be able to have a look at the finished product come Sunday morn. (Well, maybe not morning, just cause.... I'll probably be rather 'dead' at that point.) This is my new goal, and I can't wait to try them on! Here's just a taste of what tights of a similar fashion look like when they're professionally made.

(The tights and the theme for such were inspired by the Fall 2009 collection accessories by Zac Posen, Doo.Ri and Miu Miu.)

Sequin and Studded Cut-offs

I have to say My favourite are the black tights.
Just look how well they go with those AMAZING shoes!!!!

If you're keen to have a go making your own I'd highly recommend this step-by-step tutorial, compiled by Tiny Sparkly Things! It's absolutely delightful!!

Good luck...ishax

Progress Report.

My assassin is MENTAL!
He's stalked my room all night, then decided to follow me, whilst hiding behind bushes - DESPITE WEARING A BRIGHT YELLOW SHIRT; the fool!
On the other hand, I'm having no luck in my killings, probably cause I have so much on at uni for the next 3 days URGHHHH EFFORT!



RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN AWAY!!!!!!......

current kills: 0
God I suck... ishax

Killings, Vinyl and Literature...

Tomorrow begins a week of bloodshed and turmoil!
Well, not really, but we are being thrown into 'KILL WEEK'!

Curious?

(You must be)

So, for your reading pleasure, here's a short explanation about KILL WEEK!
Basically during kill week you're given the name of a victim, and you must assassinate them (BY ANY AND ALL MEANS POSSIBLE!) during that time period. If you kill your victim, they must tell you who they were supposed to assassinate, and then you must in turn 'finish what they could not'!! (ie: kill their victim) And so, the process continues until there are only two people left destined to kill each other.
It actually sounds like a pretty fun thing to do, although in all honesty I'm wishing they would've picked a less hectic week for me to play. (Hehe, 'play' ... I haven't said that since I was about 6 years old). Anyway I will probably re-blog about how my progress in this event goes.... Let's hope I'm not the first one to die!

Oh.... for all those who thought we actually 'killed' each other.... Yeah, you might wanna get yourselves checked out by a psychologist!!! We don't literally kill each other... our mission is to put pegs on the clothing of our victims.- I swear whoever has me, is pretty lucky cause:
1. I'm a space cadet.
2. I wear a lot of clothes.
3. Everyone knows my timetable.
Urghhhhhh..... It really is gunna be a long week.

However today I just happened to do something amazing!
I went to a book sale. Yeah, I know lots of people think book sales are for nerds, but to those people I say: "there truly are some AMAZING things hidden away at them"!
On my little book-spree, I bought myself the most amazing vinyl records, with which I completely re-decorated my room!!! It looks pretty cool now I have to say. I also found a lot of foreign language books (such as those in Japanese-which I love!) and Childrens books containing amazing art pieces. But my favourite buy of the day would have to be this beautiful 'Big Picture Source Book' of decoupage.
What the hell is decoupage?- Well, its basically where you decorate anything, any surface with a print and then laquer over it a few times....
Here are a few examples!

An amazing decoupage ceiling!

I swear if I had my own room I'd decorate it just like this!!!

John Derian AFRICA-themed decoupage Plates!

Anywhooooo.... next time I will deffinitely show you some pictures of my newly altered room. But for now, I'm already a week behind on uni studies, and I'm not getting any younger, so it's time for me to 'hit the books'!

Ah, Decoupage!!!...ishax

Friends?

Seems that....

When we talk,
I'm happy.
But then,
I remember that
this is the only time we really talk
This computer screen;
A world between us.
Kinda cold when you think about it?

One day,
I hope.
We'll be face to face.
Your smile
and mine.



I'll wait for then, until then, for you...ishax

I'd rather...

After a night out,
I think the best thing one can do is relax, with some good music.
Currently I'm finding Grouper's 'Heavy water/ I'd rather be sleeping' to do a rather pleasing job. It's around 2 mintutes and 54 seconds of easy listening, and honestly, while this is playing I WOULD rather be sleeping! - in a good way though! ;)

I will probably update this post more with info on Grouper, but for now... I think it's time I gave my brain a brake, and zoned out for a while.

Zzzzzzz....ishax

With Love...

I'm in a girly mood today, despite currently still wearing my pajamas and so I thought I'd share with you, some Fairy-tale, Folklore designs from the wonderful brand; Made with love by Hannah.

Have you ever watched any of the adorable old-school movies or TV series targeted towards little girls from back before the technological innovation of the naughties? My little pony? Carebears? Strawberry Shortcake?...
I know I did, and it was from these gorgeous animations in which the world was bright and cute; where lace was indeed the fabric of choice for everything, and where beautiful coloured cupcakes would sit upon patterned doilies atop a life-sized mushroom table with stools, that I developed a deep love for all things ADORABLE! It's common of course, as we mature, to give up our dreams of owning that beautiful cottage house on gumdrop hill (complete with all its wonderful trimmings); especially in the fast-paced world of today where life always seems to be about WORK WORK WORK. However one woman has chosen to allow her love for all things 'cute' to flourish, in turn, creating an extremely successful career for herself.

This quirky collector of knickknacks and trinkets, Hannah Kopacz, currently resides in a (too adorable to be real) German inspired chalet home in Los Angeles that is positively teeming with vintage knickknacks and ric-rac treasures! In addition to her personal 'pursuit of the cute', Hanna has started her own line of gorgeous and original clothing and accessoris. She's a truly blessed individual who specialises in the creation of SUPER CUTE, SUPER GIRLY prints which she has made available to the world on t-shirts, skirts, bags, dresses, sweaters etc. Seriously, you name it, she'll print on it!

If you're a fan of beautiful things then I highly recommend checking out the Made with Love website:

http://www.madewithlovebyhannah.com/ !

In a side note: I'm also loveing that fact that she's added some knitted items under her 'Made With Love by Grandma' label! The bunny Bonnet is to die for and makes me all warm and giddy inside.

If you'd like to check out the tour of Hannah's Los Angeles house
here's an interview that was made by Etsy.

Give it a look over and awe at the amount of figurines, gnomes, dolls paintings and other cute items Hannah has locked away (:

Finally, to end, I thought I'd just throw out a few words that spring to mind when I think about 'Made with love by Hannah'...

ADORABLE, LOVE, SUNSHINE, RAINBOWS, PUPPIES, INNOCENCE....ishax

One bite...

I'm hungry,
but the medication I'm taking won't allow me to eat. It really does hurt to not eat.

Lately, my friend hasn't been eating much like she should be.

It's worrying me.

I suppose I can relate to her,I used to be the same.
I used to have to wear clothes as large as size 20.
and this is when I had only just become a teen.
It was horrible.

The names.

The stares.

The moments during family photorgaphs in which I would try to hide myself behind my sister to cut down my size.

Then it started.
I'd keep a photograph of my 'heavier' self,
and one of my best friend.
(who at the time was barely a womans size 6- still isn't today, might I add.)

I would cut down on meals,

then after a while,

I wouldn't eat.

Not eating makes you grumpy. It makes you sad, and it hurts like hell.
It was stupid, but for a while I couldn't stop.
Until one day I realised, in every photograph;
my cheeks were pale and hollow,
and my eyes were dark and had sunk in.

I looked like shit.

From there I ate.

Not crap. Just food, good food.

So to my gorgeous friend, who worries far too much about what other people think; please stop. I love you. I know many people that do too.
Listen to yourself when you talk: "I can see my ribs, my hip bones..."

That's not good.

It means your body's at its limit and I hate seeing you like this!
Regardless I hope you read this, and know that both I and many people we know are here for you.

Love you...ishax

All but one. All but the one. All but my one.

DONE.

I got that look again.
The brush off.

It's never hurt so bad.
(as it did today)
So now, I'm going to go to sleep.
and dream of nothing.

Because some things are no longer worth dreaming about.

Hurt...ishax

Four Eyed Monster

The directors of art-house style, Feature Films are people I really admire.
It takes a lot of courage to create something on a low-budget scale that is so often compared to films made with enormous corporation backing and such.

The film I have below 'Four Eyed Monsters' is so simple yet beautiful; a creation by Arin Crumley and Susan Buice.

From their Youtube account this is what I have gathered so far (Direct)

WHAT IS THE MOVIE ABOUT?
It's about being alone in a city, wanting to be in a relationship but feeling there are no good ways to start a connection and then breaking out of a rut, jumping feet first into something deeper and crazier than either of us expected.

AWARDS:
Nominated for two spirit awards and won the undiscovered gems Sundance Audience Award.

There are also tons of interviews with us about the film on our publicity page as well as links to our New York Times and Village Voice reviews of the film:

So please, Have a look at this gorgeous feature film and let me know what you think.
Or at the bare minimum, please like this movie on youtube to show your support for its creators.

They have 4 eyes
They have 2 mouths
They have 8 limbs,
that,
wrap around themselves in narcissistic self adoration.
It's disgusting.

and I can't help but envy them.

Love is a burning thing...ishax

DOCTOR DOCTOR! I need my fix!!!!

I have the flu.
It's a horrible side-effect of living communally! Maybe if I became a recluse,
I would be healthy forever?... Probably not.
In cases such as those, I may just die of loneliness.
That just so happens to be one of the the top 3 fears of humanity, or so my old physics teacher told me.

(Why he chose to share things like this in place of the course information is possibly why I never returned to the subject come the following year.)

The three main fears.
Falling.
Suffocating.
and being alone.

I'm alone at the moment.

and cold... and sick. - my current blocked nose makes me feel as though I'm suffocating.

So in reality, that's currently 2/3 fears.
Conquering 2/3 eh??...I'm a regular modern-day "Brave Heart".
Though I'm not Scottish.
(and descending from the renowned 'lazy Irish' folk of the time adds little to my case.)

I've run out of tissues now.
Want to go to the shop to get more, but I look like shit.

So I'll just steal the paper from the bathrooms until I'm able to have a conversation with someone without gasping for air, sniffling, or wheezing like a 9o year old man.

I hate people seeing me this way.

I'm too tired to change outfits in my usual routine of 5 a day.

Maybe I'll just wait an hour and 20 minutes until everyone starts playing soccer in the quad just outside my room...

to watch them.

It's not really stalking,

is it????....

Speaking of sick, while browsing for "pic-achues" of illnesses I happened to come across a new fashion establishment which, although at present only exists in Japan and the UK, I would love to see gracing the humble streets of Perth one day in the future.

Bla Bla Hospital +

What?...is the Bla Bla Hospital.
The store of every fashion-victims dreams! A place where those experiencing a fashion-emergency can go to pick up one of a kind, hand-made 'material' remedies, which mainly focus on visual kei style; very edgy, very alternative, at some times boarderline insane, but always gorgeous! The hospital is rumoured to have emerged in and around London, in 2001, but has been shifting its focus and whereabouts continuously since that time. Who knows where it may show up next?
Perth, I'm hoping!!!

Where?...are the hospitals located.
For all those dying for a fashion fix and who are willing to go the distance, BlaBlaHospital has two main "walk-in surgeries". As far as my knowledge allows me, they are, however, nowhere within Australia at the present time. Regradless, for all those who are super keen and whose daddies wouldn't mind whipping out the jet to fly you to London, Tokyo etc then I highly recommend checking out the following locations:

Unit 34c Camden Stables Market in London.This being the original surgery which has been around for about 8 years now! Sadly, from what I've heard, the london store is currently out of action and on the hunt for a new point of operration. :( But I do belive that when it re-opens, the things that burst out of such a place will be more amazing that words could describe.

Tokyo: Floor 6, 0101ONE Shinjuku, as part of the Kera shop. - Seriously, I've visited this place in december last year, and it is OFF THE WALLLLLL!!!!!
For all those unlucky enough to have been born outside access distance to these two glorious locations, there are indeed some online shops offerring BlaBlah- fashion miricles, as well as some other shops sprinkled across the fashion-starved world.

Stockists can be found in :

Greece
PALOMA NEGRA
2 Dorilaiou& Vas.Sofias, Mavili Square 115 21, Athens

Switzerland
BLACK GRIFFIN FASHION
preyergasse 16 8001 zurich

Japan-Tokyo
OlONE 8F KERASHOP ARENA
3-1-20 Shinjuku Tokyo

Japan-Osaka
BIG STEP 3F KERASHOP ARENA
1-6-14 Nishishinsaibashi Chuou Osaka

Online Shopping links are also handy for people such as myself, who no longer have easy access to BlaBla- treatments:

http://blablahospital.ocnk.net/

Brief mention about Tokyomade, who stocks a lot of alternative fashions!
TOKYOMADE was created to give people from across the globe a chance to access the thrill that is a 'Tokyo Shopping adventure'. As well as having the opportunity to browse and buy the latest and greatest wares of hot independent designers, shoppers are thrown into the action of the streets of Tokyo and are able to pick up some of the hottest Shinjuku goodies!...

http://www.tokyomade.com/

Who?...runs the Bla Bla Hospital.
Why, the head nurse of course! The head nurse is responsible for designing and creating most of what's on offer at BlaBla, although there are also some 'probationary' doctors and nurses floating around who welcome patients and perform emergency surgery if necessary!!

How?...can I get my hands on Bla Bla Creations.
Stop reading this post and go for a browse on the websites!!! Seriously, I promise you wont regret it! ;)

BlaBlaNurses!

Kinda Like a clown doctor outfit!- BUT CUTER!!!

I really want this orange outfit, from the Spring/Summer 09 collection!

Assess the patients status... Accessorise the wounds!

FASHION, THEMES, MAKING BEING SICK FUN!!!

I'm gunna stop, otherwise I will have a fashion re-lapse!!!

Oh god, it's too damn cool!!!

HEARTATTACK...ishax

Birthday whales

Just thought I'd throw it out there....

I'm officially 18 as of 54 minutes ago!!!!

sadly,

.....My head hurts like hell.

Ah Tequila night. You devil, you!!

mmmm.... Slightly burnt, poorly iced whale cake.
so anti-mainstream.

haha.

Having a whale of a time,
with a Whale of a hangover...ishax

A Wish.

This song;

...describes how I'm feeling.

It's truly beautiful, and I'm pretty sure everyone has felt like this at some point in their lives.

A Wish - Gregory and the Hawk

I wish to feel smaller
under your sheets.
I wish for the whole truth
every time you speak.
I'm thinkin' about how you care half as much for me
While I watch you arrive, smoke cigarettes, sleep...

And I guess it doesn't matter what I say or what I seem
You stuck what I felt for you in the pocket of your jeans
Ignoring me the morning after
isn't enough
and I swear I'm gonna cry.
I'm sick of tryin' to be tough.

And my blood won't stick
To the confines of my veins.
And your heart
Is gonna tear mine away.

And I wish to feel smaller under your hands,
though you seem satisfied as you slip mine
down your pants.
And I'm thinkin' about how you care half as much for me
While you lift up my shirt after asking politely.

And I guess it doesn't matter what I am or pretend to be
Cuz it's her you'll always love and it's her I'll always envy.
I want to end this now so dreams of you won't keep me up.
But I swear I'm gonna cry.
I'm sick of tryin' to be tough.

And my blood won't stick
To the confines of my veins.
And your heart
Is gonna tear mine away.

And it's hard to find
What I want
When it's buried beneath the biggest rock.
I could pay lots of money
To help lift it with machines
But I'm not sure you'd cooperate.
Not sure you'd come clean.

And I wish to feel smaller
under your sheets.
I wish for the whole truth
every time you speak.
And I'm thinkin' about how you care half as much for me
As I watch you arrive, smoke cigarettes, sleep.

And I guess it doesn't matter what I say or what I seem
You stuck what I felt for you in the pocket of your jeans.
Ignoring me the morning after isn't enough
and I swear I'm going to cry.
I'm sick of tryin' to be tough.

Yeah, I swear I'm gonna cry.
I'm sick of tryin' to be tough.

And my blood won't stick
To the confines of my veins.
And your heart
Is gonna tear mine away.

Is gonna tear mine away

Gosh, I'm silly.

Maybe I'll go eat some cake. . .

Or maybe I'll just play this a few more times.

Must say though, that it seems Meredith Godreau (the American singer-songwriter who performs under the pseudonym Gregory and the Hawk) really loves to write about unrequited love like this. Songs such as her: 'Isabelle', 'I'm your Puppet' and the more famous 'Boats and Birds' have obviously been written at the height of emotion, because their words are so blatantly touching and real, that you cant help but be moved by them. Give it a listen sometime. I highly recommend!

P.S

Today I boguht a bunch of new goodies from more OP-shops!

I shall definitely get round to posing pictures of them as soon as I can.

Just not right now...

Right now, it's music time ;)

God, Gregory and the Hawk - You're So beautiful...ishax

Fedoras, behind me, Fedoras..

I bought
myself two gorgeous fedora's from the Hattery in Perth.
It's been about 3 days since then...
and already they have hardly ever left my head.
(and I sleep with them next to my bed every night!)

I'm thinking I should give each a name,
So I could tell them apart when I need to.
As one is brown and the other black.
But also,
So they don't feel left out like the toys in Toystory.
(even though they're hats)

Hatteryyyy (try saying that 10 times fast)...ishax

Blackboards and Sunshine.

Decided to try something new today. Blogging outside.

It’s a glorious Thursday afternoon and here I am, chilling on a bench dedicated to the late Fr Edward Stormon. Not sure why I chose the bench… especially due to the fact that an extremely luxurious looking hammock (hung by one of the American exchange students) is empty, and starring me straight in the face!! On a side note, now that I think about it; IF and when I die… someone dedicate more than a bench to me please!
Anyway, I just finished my wondrous STATS tute… (You know???... The one I spent a little over 4 hours preparing and watching lectures for this morning?) And I must say, that I am now completely and utterly IN LOVE with my tutor!!!
In reality, you could put my new affections down to that fact that his teaching philosophy is: “in my class, you will never be asked up to the blackboard.” which ultimately means both less in class pressure for me and more time to focus on actually finishing the mounting assignment questions that are now due EVERY Monday for the next 13 or so weeks!! (On a side-note: How cool is it that we have a black board in this class!!! I thought they died out with the onslaught of High School- Seems not as we have 6 in the one room!!!)

I seem rather hyper this afternoon.
Maybe it’s because I just knocked back a coffee, made in the Kitchenette, courtesy of my friend ‘Goldilocks’.
Can’t get much better than free espressos now, can you???

The sun feels good.
Makes me forget how truly shitty days can be sometimes.

I wonder how long I can stay like this.
Oh wait. Hockey practice is at 5.

#$%@%!!!...ishax.

Arrogant Shower Attitudes.

MORNING!

I have just abused the hell out of the showers.
(The one closest to the door is always the cleanest.)
Also I fear I may have woken everyone in my block up.


Tsk tsk, the perils of cleanliness.

Where is this??

I like it.
Makes me with I could pee standing up.

The one furthest right is TOTALLY asking for it! ... ishax.

((Robot Woman Attacks))- Lace, Beading, Lectures.

I'm up early trying to watch 4 lectures I've been putting off since last week.
Guess it's not really the best way to start the new semester, but I put it all down to the fact that my brain relapsed into 'holiday mode' last weekend. Sadly, the fact that my lecturer sounds like a ROBOT does not help motivate me at all.

My lecturer...

BLAH BLAH*I am a robot* BLAH BLAH *some maths formula*
BLAH BLAH *sigma* BLAH BLAH *fail* BLAH...
Maybe I should've just failed last semesters unit and had to re-endure more of Sam Tangs "find the porn"
(he meant point) -talk, cause seriously, my new lecturer is even less interesting!!!!

Now you see, if ROBOT UNICORN was my lecturer I swear all my problems would be over! Because ROBOT UNICORN ATTACK --is the shizzzz!!! I bet he'd gallop into the lecture theatre, his theme song blazing, and tear up all our notes with his rainbow blast ( Press X to Rainbow Blast!) then possibly explode in a loud firey *BOOM* after running into a wall because or he failed to make the leap from one row of seats to the other. Sometimes I wish lecturers would explode if they got something wrong. . . Mine would all be nothing but dust by now.

A pictoral representation of how, if my lecturer was ROBOT UNICORN, I would more than willingly go to 8am STATS lectures more often and NOT have to catch up on 4 of them cause they're soooooo BORING!!!

On the up side, I am at the same time, browsing online for things I want... I've decided this wicked 16th century style neck piece is the go!! It would look so cool with my black jacket or some of my cocktail dresses! I've always been a fan of black lace and the beading is truly gorgeous!!!.....Kinda weird that I found it on a medieval costume website, but then again, people are people.. even the medieval ones.

OOOOOOhhh my lecture just finished... YESSSS!!!!
(It's still 6am- Damnnit!)

On to lecture 2.

BEGIN!

FML, FML in the eye! ....ishax

My New Friend.

Today I had many tutes.
But it was a good day cause I made a friend there.
I like meeting people...
It makes my day a whole lot better

Although I think my new friend is very smart.
Too smart in fact.

I'm going to have to study harder to keep up.

Fuck :S

My new friend likes statues...
I wonder if they will like this tree as much as I do??

I wish I could do a bendback...ishax

Currently in a groooove.....

SOKO SOKO SOKO....
Just thought I'd share this snazzy Soko/ Marina beat with you...
It's had me twisting round my room for the last 20 minutes.

Gotta say, these lyrics (for me at least) hold so much truth!!! Can't remember the last time when I wasn't thinking this to myself at some point when my mum would nag me, or not let me out on a week night.

Mum am I wasting my days, I'm just thinking about, all the things that you say.

I'm not you! I'm not you!

And I'm really aware of the things that you did,

When you were my age!

Don't blame me if I wake up at 2, if my life seems shit and I hardly see you.

I'm not you! I'm not you!

And I'm really aware of the things that you did,

When you were my age!

I swear I'm gunna kill the joy that is this song if I don't stop! But for now.... Groooove onnnnn!!!!
God I love you Soko!

Enjoy...ishax

Walking. Talking. Stalking..???

Today I was walking past the Peacock infested expanse of greenery that is the UWA Arts Block... Actually, I wasn't walking, so much as 'stalking'- But for good reason, I assure you!!
There is an individual, a glorious individual who looks EXACTLY like Stacy from the 2005 film, Lords of Dogtown!!! Stacy, for those who haven't seen the movie or don't quite remember is the effeminate, blonde sexbomb played by John Robinson. In reality, the real Stacy Peralta, a skateboarding icon in and around the 70's, looked a little something like this back in the day:
(Please feel free to drool as I did)

Hello beautiful mannnn!!! Why are you so old now!!?!?!?!!

In this colossal photograph Stacy is sitting third from the right side, Paul Hoffman is furthest on the right... and If sources suffice I do believe Mike Williams is third from the left while Henry Hester sits jsut left of him.

Got to admit, although I am possibly the most awkward looking skateboarder in the history of people who have ever braved the contraption, Lords of Dogtown makes it look both increadibly effortless and utterly AMAZING! (Believe me, the former is completely underestimating the skill that is skateboarding). So yes, I went and tried my hand at taking a photo of the mystery individual, while at the same time both trying to appear as inconspicuous as possible during the time in which a colossal FLASH proturded from my side (felt much like Harry Potter at this moment... """LUMINOSSSSS!!!!!""") and to muffle the extremely audiable CLICK sound that my phone makes upon capturing still-framed glory. (Personally I consider the sound more like someone shatterring glass, but hey, let's keep things general shall we??)

One for the Stalking albummmm.
God, you can't even really make him out...
(I'd be such a shit spy)

Anyway, on a completely different note; Today I passed my driving test. Yes!~ I do realise I've been horribly slack with getting on the "vehicle independance" bandwagon but twas my logic, that the longer I put off obtaining non-life threatening motor skills, the more I will never ever have to be the 'taxi'! Nor will drinking ( Not that I do, cause according to my super attractive Smartrider: I'm still juvenile.... eh...heh. >__> ) be a problem, as no driving means never being sober... Is it just me or do I sound like an alcoholic at present???

Regardless... It is done. So Mum, stop nagging me about it already!!
(A slightly falsified representation of Mum's nagging... in which she has hyper-blond hair, and I am both bald and blessed with the gift of caterpillar eyebrows- Praise Jesus!!)

Finally, it seems that more and more people are starting to tell me they're reading my blog. Sorta weird when you think about it... that they're are taking the time to read my own thoughts and what-not. But actually I love it!!
So thank you :)

On my leave, I would just like to say;
Eating an entire bag of popcorn (EXTREME BUTTER FLAVOUR) before bed, is most deffinitely THE WORST idea that could have ever crossed my mind...



Yack, yack, yack... ishax.
