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 :(

(image from: google, ebay, or urban outfitters?)

-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.

Photobucket

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

-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!

Photobucket
(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?"

so on imdb, i see there's a new trailer for guy madden's new film "my winnipeg", curious, i clicked on the link to watch it and got the message "this video is not avalible in your country"...REALLY?!


Photobucket
somehow kurt cobain got a hold of one of daniel johnstons tee's while daniel was in a mental institution, and daniel's popularity went insane! (no pun intended)
in other movie news, i wacthed the devil and daniel johnston. i think if you know who he is/listen to his music, you'd like the documentry. i'm not super familliar with it, so even though he's had an interesting and lucky life, i wasn't very drawn into it.

symmetry at its finest

the other day while creeping my fair share of fashion blogs, i came across a post about the model gemma ward. i looked at her and thought she was really, really pretty. they (who "they are, i'm not too sure...but "they" know everything don't they), say that the more symmetrical someones face is, the more beautiful people think that that person is. curious, i tried this on a straight-on photo of gemma ward, and honestly, you can barely tell the difference. its insane, and she's officially beautiful.

Photobucket

p.s: i made run to chapters today for a magazine fix. for the two i grabbed it came to 30$ whch makes me kind of sad. but it was worth it! mags of choice for today:
Photobucket
(didn't realize it was brit vogue til, actually, two minutes ago. doesn't mater too much though)
Photobucket
(funnily enough, i dindt realy look at this one before i bought it and thought it was called london calling...:) i've never seen this one before, but i liked the cover so thought i'd give it a go. for magazines, i strictly buy them based on the cover and section they're in. aka section has to either be "art" "culture" "fashion" or a mix of the three X)

let rumble

almost two weeks and no postage?! what up with that? honestly: nothing. i've been being incredibley boring.

a few nights ago kelsey and i went to the kings head and ran into a few friends. it was pretty good, we danced the night away.

last night the two of us went out to get some sushi
Photobucket
it was pretty delicious. we felt like the biggest dorks though because our knowledge of sushi is less then exstensive, so we literally guessed, and randomly picked good ones. at dinner we also decided that pickled ginger smells like henna tattoos. we got three different kinds of rolls, one of them had fish eggs in them, which i pointed out to kelsey as soon as she ate one, she gagged haha. she said that was the one thing she didnt want to eat. i liked it though, i ate all the little nemos.

i watched the movie crank finally. it was entertaining for sure. both shawn and dale at work, as i was renting it said "best sex scene ever". dale described it as "every man's fantasy". so i was expecting it to be this hardcore rough and wild, hot and heavy, super fast rough sex scene. well....kind of, turns out he screws his girlfriend in the middle of china town with a million people watching. when he can't get it up, he pushes her against the newspaper box thing and after noticing a bus full of asian school girls, he gets it up and fucks her silly, that is until he answers his phone mid way and then leaves lol. uhm, really dale? every male's fantasy? ok, if you says so.

so, some random window repair guy is at my house right now, and im kind of creeped out because im home alone with him. he's very nice, but its kind of awkward. my gma was supposed to be here for when they came, but they're two hours early and i can't get a hold of her. i was just about to head out when they came :(

today, once my gma gets here, i plan on going to the paint store and finding the color i want to paint my room. i found osme wallpaper the other day that im using to cover one of my walls. its textured wallpaper so you can paint over it for different looks. the color i'm thinking of doing is a greeny blue, but a really pale version. im kind of worried it may turn out hospital color. i originally wanted to paint my room the exact same color it was at the old house (pinky/purple) but my mom has convinced me otherwise :P. also today i want to go to chapters and pick out a few lovely fashion mags, as well as check out the library for a good read.

there was a pterodactyl (aka goose) on my roof the other day, and it left muddy footprints. i find this amusing.

oh and updates on the 30day shred...i'm a lazy bastard and only did it once. i just hate working out! i've been craving to bike down to the forks, but i hate the wind, especially when i'm on a bike, and its been really windy lately so i havent gone.
