SUPERHUGEBLOG/CLUSTERFUCK!!!

So I have tons of stuff for you today, cause I have been neglecting you :(

So first off i have some valentines pics







It was awesome I ate close to a million converstation hearts, made fun of the romantic comedy we went to, and sat on the ground in the deserted movie theatre. It was quite a night.

So today in geometry we played with these toys that clip together into joints and stuff. The last time I had played with those was when I was 6 in kindergarten. I re-made what I made then. What was it you ask? I made a miniature depiction of ancient egypt including the temple of Ra the sun god. I was a very strange child. I still am.

Oh and this is my "collegiate" inspired outfit!




The 2nd one is my tattered and prized lace cami. Those rips were all purely unintentional.

So here is my current wish list:

Boxer shorts to wear with tights as shorts
Loose fitting a.a. v-necked t-shirts in gray and cream for sure, possibly others
Boy jeans which i will then DESTROY mwahahahaha
Something, anything floral! Have my eye on a floral vintage vest at a local vintage store...
Belts paticularly woven and etched leather.
A good shirt dress.
And finally shoes:
another pair of gladiators
other interesting sandals
and a pair of lace up, flat ankle boots like these:



And BTW that is one of my all time favorite photographs so props to CHLOE.S!!! WOOT. But yes those would be the dream shoes... sigh.





And that was the beautiful finger puppet that I'm going to give to a friend of mine. I wuvs YOU!

Also I recently got the most charming champagne colored diamond braclet. It is so cool! It makes me feel like a princess. That what I get for having jewelers for an Aunt and uncle :)









Those were from a marvelous day when me and my favvvorite tasia made cupcakes. And then we fingerpainted. And then we started another painting with "grown up" pants :) It was soooo fun. We also ate mac and cheese, right out of the pot. YUMMO!

Here are some pics of wednesdays outfit!And my new obsession my purple heartshaped sunglasses!!! And the most wonderous plaid shirt!!!!! AND THE STRAWBERRY FAIRY PIN!!!!!!!!!





They were such a hit at my school! (especially with my theatre friends)

Tuesdays outfit was deemed not interesting enough to put on here.
I am very upset with myself though because on Monday I wore my new aztec print highwaisted skirt, a white tee, and blacktights & moccasins! SO ADORABLE! But alas I went to an invent called culture explosion that day, got home very late and did not take pictures! :_( I wept the next morning. not really. But I'll take a pic sometime

And lastly here is a song I wrote a bit ago. I hope you enjoy it even without the guitar or piano chords.

Tea in France

My world is born anew
This earth is old and grey
These sights are familiar
These sights I see today

Do you hear the screaming winds?
The sunburst that opened our eyes
Makes the moutains tall
and the river deep and wide

Oh the merry round will turn it's zoo
of plastic girls and boys
and when the animals come alive
They'll finally make some noise
And if your somewhere out there
drinkin tea while your in france
Just know that i'm back home
Waitin for my chance

with our candycanes and ballons
The land was all ours
the streets and their birds
The farmer and his stars

daises swaying in th wind
you stop our walk and stoop
then with the fingers of your hand
The flowers you uproot

we wove ourselves crowns
Imagined up a kingdom
simple peace and light
a very simple freedom

Oh the merry round will turn it's zoo
of plastic girls and boys
and when the animals come alive
They'll finally make some noise
And if your somewhere out there
drinkin tea while your in france
Just know that i'm back home
Waitin for my chance

But you had travlin to do
afterall the world is wide
I stayed to watch our wilting kingdom
a statue washed by tides

And I gave my heart unto the ocean
water fish and sand
I said I'd never love another
love another man

Oh the merry round will turn it's zoo
of plastic girls and boys
and when the animals come alive
They'll finally make some noise
And if your somewhere out there
drinkin tea while your in france
Just know that i'm back home
Waitin for my chance

And I wonder what will happen
when my memories are all lost
bliss will overcome me
you'll have to pay the cost

And when my smiles turn upside down
I think of candycanes
the happiness thats promised
with the endless waves of grain

Oh the merry round will turn it's zoo
of plastic girls and boys
and when the animals come alive
They'll finally make some noise
And if your somewhere out there
drinkin tea while your in france
Just know that i'm back home
Waitin for my chance

My thoughts will return
to the long ago years
of your soft smiles
and gifts of fallen tears

Have you gone astray?
Don't you hear my call?
for the satues we've built up
Soon will surely fall

Day has turned to night
and this heart that you engraved
brought to shore that fatefull day
and melted with that simple wave

Oh the merry round will turn it's zoo
of plastic girls and boys
and when the animals come alive
They'll finally make some noise
And if your somewhere out there
drinkin tea while your in france
Just know that i'm back home
Waitin for my chance

I shan't explain a thing
not a single verse of rhyme
for you'll invent your own meaning
I'll meet you in france this time

Exerpt from "this isn't my world" everything by yours truly





She walked the woods the earth and stars
and as she walked oft she stopped
she sat down by a tree dampened by springs first rain
she closed her eyes



suddenly it was a whole new world!
the smell of the moss at the base of the log, the flowers and new sprouts
the rustle of the deers eating in the forest ahead
a jack rabbit rustling in the underbrush the twitter of birds spoke a new language
the bugs on twig and the wind in the trees
the touch of the ant climbing her leg and her skirt beneath her hands




the feel of the cold wind's slap to her face
AWAKE AWAKE!!! ARISE ARISE!!
And slowly the girl opened her eyes



but the world had disapeared. No where to be found. In it's place a new strange land of beauty. Every color brighter every detail sharper. And she lifted her face to the sky.



THE SUN! What glory! What light! the girl replied to the heavenly call.
"This isn't my world no not at all."

Hey little boy have you ever heard of dare? Drugs Are Really Expensive. Thats right kide. D-A-R-E.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCSwx74dUZs&feature=subscription

Seriously, go watch that right now. It's utterly awesome.

So yeah right now I'm really loving well love songs. Mostly 60's pop esque stuff like:
1234 by the plain white tees
Young love by the mystery jets
Baby I'm yours acrtic monkeys version

You know stuff like that.

Anyways I got the chance to do a shoot in the woods on our property here today and I had so much fun!! (those pics will be in a later post) I also took a few pics the other day on my porch... at night... in the snow:) Some people may think "Why do you keep doing snow shoots landis???" Well I will tell you why. It's because that's all that happens in MINNESOTA! It's pretty though. Anywho...




I loved that outfit! So comfy...

Sooo I was thinking about big excestential things this week...





I'M NOT YOUR DIRTY LAUNDRY

By the way that was the awesome drama masks vintage sweater I was talking about that I LOVE.

But anywho last saturday was Sno-daze at school and i felt super special cause I skipped out on the monotonous conformity to go see MILK with a couple friends. Let me tell you that is one inspirational movie

The following is a series of photos taken at my house and at a pre party that I went to (even though I was to cool for sno daze)

TONIGHT, WE MASQUERADE:











But yeah after the crazieness we went to like a midnight movie type of deal and MILK was just so wonderful. moving and inspirational. It didn't hurt that the acting was great (including a favorite of mine EMILE HIRCSH) and the script was meticulously blended from history into a modern day drama. I thin it was time for this move. That the world is maybe ready to accept homosexual people as normal people. Just like you an me :)

Oh and also I am currently doing a project about teen corp a volunteer organization/commune from the 60's and 70's. It has really renewed my sense of right and wrong and true happiness. Ah how i wish it were still around.

And in further news my brother was arrested (for the fourth time I believe) for indecent exposure. I have a very strange family as i believe I've mentioned before. My mother is an anxiety attack ridden control freak with a pension for violence and occasionally niceness. Shes really just misunderstood. My father may as well be a 5 year old. He stays at home all day inventing things and wearing i=his miners light. Sometimes a trip to the home depo. I really love him alot, he's basically my best friend. Then there is my brother, described by my friend sean as the "nip rubbin stewart" (self explaining) he has been in constant trouble with the law since 16 for all SORTS of things. Most recently it has been his "protest" against our schools strict nudity rules (1 time streaking and you are expelled) he has invented something called NAKED FRIDAY. It's also the name of his band. Basically every friday they wear cowboy boats and man thongs and run around (freezin their nuts off!) But recently the cops arrested then, toke pics of their naked friday attire and gave a strong warning to never so it again. he's on probation, so he probably listen to them. But its never stopped him in the past. Sigh






THINGS CURRENTLY INSPIRING ME:
The 50's, just in general
as always lookbook
the band wolf mother
the song "Dry the rain" by the Beta band
sweater vest friday
frost
Hemingway & Thoreau
Pygmalion
My art (hopefully I will do an art blog soon of pics and drawings. Sunday?)
Turtles
Eyeballs
Geometry

Thats the basics. Hopefully I'll post again soon. Loves Ya.
