shad

A force to be reckoned with:

Brazilian girls


Some people go ooh quoi quoi they go qui
Some people have NOTHING and want NOTHING and are FREE
Some people want to burn the world with their greed
We just want to have a GOOD TIME.

love is no big truth


All I do is sleep all day, and think of you
A memory of the cushion life I'm clinging to
The image of a mutual one, our haven
The sombre chords of our song, the fading

Love is no big truth
Driven by our genes, we are simple selfish beings
A symphony that's you
Joyously awaking the ignorant and sleeping
Passion and its brother hate, they come and go
Could easily be made to stay for longer though
Many people play this game so willingly
Do I have to be like them, or be lonely?

Two songs of summer

The two songs that will make me think of summer 2010 are Upular (Rynecologist helium rework) - Pogo,



and Space- Fizzy Dino Pop

Am I Free?

modern love; DAMAGE DONE

" The tears you are crying are real, or real enough, though the tears you cry at an AT&T commercial are also real. This renactment of the trauma is perhaps the opposite of finding a way to embody the trauma, which might be another way of saying to integrate the experience into your everyday life, so that it no longer pulls the strings, makes you dance. But to embody, one must have a body. For many years, I'd borrow someone else's body, put myself inside her, if only for a few minutes, or a few nights, until I could find, or find a way to enter, my own.

The thing about damage is that if you can lead someone right to it, like a sleeping bear, point to it, say, "Shhhh, don't wake him," then it likely is already toothless. At least for the winter months. Come spring everyone is damaged all over again, whether they talk about it or not. It's just the world waking up. It's the sap running through the trees, it's the ice starting to thaw. Whatever damage has been sleeping is now awake, once more. True damage is not merely a reenactment of past turmoil, but part of nature, part of our cellular structure. That's why it's a good idea not to imagine you can contain it in one place and neatly chop it out. That's why it's a good idea to stretch each morning, if just to be aware of where in your body the damage is lurking today"

animal

The more covers I hear of animal - miike snow, the more I like the original less. Mark Ronson's remix is so sick, if you haven't yet, I suggest you check it out! Another rising star at the moment, which also covers animal, is Sky Ferreira, which you can watch here:

DIY alexander wang sweater





I went to value village the other day and bought a rugged looking sweater for $4.99, and to Fabric land and bought some sheer fabric for $1.29. I cut holes out of the sweater and stitched around each of them to prevent fraying - because this fabric is really finicky. After that I flipped the sweater inside out and pinned the fabric and did another stitch. It's a VERY easy DIY, but all you need is A LOT of time! aaand Ta-Da a DIY Alexander Wang sweater.

Total savings: $588.72 :)

Any questions at all, just let me know!

make a new beginning

Hello everyone,
I'm new to this whole thing, and not quite sure what i'm doing yet.
Just finished my first year of university, taking my pre-requisites for veterinary medicine, so right now i'm just taking my bachelor of science - cellular and molecular biology. Apart from being a huge nerd my two biggest passions in life are fashion and music -- which is what i want to focus this blog on.

I'm stoked to meet new people and experience the blogging world!
cheers!
