lost and found

i have a special folder on my computer that i reserve for pictures i want to post on here, and i find i save quite a few pictures then forget to post them, so here are some from the lost and found:

-i don't remember where these are from, my guess is bored & beautiful or boingboing, but don't quote me on that. i also don't remember if these were real ancient anatomical japanese drawings, or just the style that someone has adopted in the present day, either way, i think they're wicked:

-this is the kind of bed frame i'm on a hunt for this summer, i work every weekend so i haven't been able to hit up any garage sales yet to search :(

-found out bill cosby is coming into town to hold a chit chat. in my film class we watched the movie baadasssss, and it was about the making of the movie sweet sweetback's baadasssss song, and bill cosby was a real guy who helped with the making of sweet sweetback's badasssss song, which i think is cool. go bill!

-cool bike, and yes it actually works.

-cool doll houses that you can decorate the insides however you want, supremely over priced. (probably from bored and beautiful, but not sure)

-dress i bought from superstore, the joe brand. i got it in navy though. a girl came into work today wearing this and i thought it was really cute and she told me where it was from so after work i went straight there and bought it :) the other day at work one of the girls pointed out i almost always dress in grey or black (or navy recently). i would like to stop that, but the clothes i'm drawn to are usually one of those colors (shades). not my fault! i want to go shopping with someone soon, i need some help with clothes, i'm in a rut and i can't get out!

(looks cuter on, it has ruffles by the chest you can't see too well in this pic)

-some magazines i think are dandy and that everyone should go out and read. i havent gotten the latest issure of swindle yet and i feel kind of sad, and i totally missed the last issue of planet too because its a quarterly mag and i had no idea when to expect it

-i don't think i like capital letters, they're to harsh and official

-50 days and i'm on a plane to go visit marcus in england/bulgaria! (we're planning on going to the big chill music festival in england where the mighty boosh happen to be performing on one of the days)

-i feel like i haven't done anything of importance lately

-go find the box set of my so-called life and watch it all.

to end this post, i will leave you with the dramatic teenage thoughts of angela chase:

"I couldn't stop thinking about it. The, like, fact that - that people - had sex. That they just *had* it, like sex was this thing people - *had*, like a rash. Or a - a Rottweiler. Everything started to seem like, pornographic or something. Like, Mrs. Krysanowski has sex. So does Mr. Katimsky. They both have sex. They could - have sex together. Like right now."

" Sometimes it seems like we're all living in some kind of prison. And the crime is how much we hate ourselves. It's good to get really dressed up once in a while. And admit the truth: that when you really look closely? People are so strange and so complicated that they're actually... beautiful. Possibly even me. "

"Sometimes someone says something really small and it just fits into this empty place in your heart."

"Huge events take place on this earth every day. Earthquakes, hurricanes, even glaciers move. So why couldn't he just look at me?"

"Rickie: If you were about to do it, okay, what would you want the other person to say, like, right before.
Rayanne: 'This won't take long.'
Rickie: No, seriously.
Rayanne: 'Do I know you?'
Rickie: No, like, for real. Like, romantic.
Angela: 'You're so beautiful, it hurts to look at you.'
Rayanne: 'It hurts to look at you?'
Rickie: How'd you think of that?
Rayanne: Where would it hurt?"

I am OBSESSED with Angela Chase. Oh my goodness. Do you have the box set?!
And I also have a "blog photos" folder! Hot damn!

AND I LOVE CAPITAL LETTERS, AS LONG AS THEY ARE CONSECUTIVE. I don't like capitalizing sentences and "I" and stuff.

she's pretty lovely :) my old boss andrew and i were having a converstation about my so-called life one day and he just stops and says to me "you know you're angela chase right?"
i don't have the box set, but i want it, i watched the whole series a few years ago in the summer as it was rerunning late night on the family channel. loved it. rewatched it last year when i borrowed it from my old boss. saw it at hmv this xmas for $50, was going to buy it but i was too broke and now they don't have it anymore :(

that's true, capital leters are fine IF GROUPED TOGETHER, but i dislike them if used properly to start sentances, etc. unless its in a formal kind of writing. in blogs or emails to a friend, i can't stand it
