If you keep crying wolf, one will get you in the end.



The Lady of Shalott- J.H Waterhouse/Ophelia - J.H Waterhouse

I really love J.H Waterhouse. The striking red hair and the pale skin.. I've been obsessed with Ophelia for a while now ever since I had to play her and I adore his depictions of her, although The Lady of Shalott is my favorite, it's so beautiful it makes me want to float away.. Poor Elaine of Astolat, although honestly dying of unrequited love? 

Dear god. If I had ever lived in fictional 12th(?) century England I would have just thrown a heavy rock in her vague direction. Overly romantic people either annoy or make me feel incredibly uncomfortable. Pining after people is a waste of time. Valentines day makes me gag, and I've never felt compelled to watch poorly spelled  'xdoo yoo luv him' videos made on windows media player with nasty sped up chipmunkish music for the backing. I don't understand why there is a correlation between spelling the word 'you' as 'yoo' (or any variation of 'yooh', YoOh, YoO, etc) and extreme bouts of unrequited love but they seem to always go hand in hand. Thank god Jennifer Aniston doesn't do written interviews. 

I really don't understand why some people think they are so entitled to everything and I really don't understand why some people feel acting rude and ignorant will make others respect or like them. It's just ridiculous.

And not that I'm any different!, I can be rude and I'm not that intelligent or good at anything except for Tetris and IQ tests but, I don't know. Sometimes I really feel some people are just being intentionally ignorant, they don't want to learn or look any further for different perspectives and are just content with what they believe. I don't understand that. Don't all  humans inherently want to further themselves and learn and discover more? Maybe they are actually robots, although even robots I suppose want to learn more. At least those cutsey japanese HALLO MY NAME IS PEEKO robots that are all about learning and having huge eyes and pink light up glowing hearts are, I don't know about other robots. Illegal robots. Rusting unused robots in sheds or warehouses hiding in shadows and fuming with hatred. Or those robots that tried to eat Will Smith. They were also evil. I suspect all ignorant people are actually just involved in a huge master plot to eat Will Smith. Next time I am around one (although I do not usually like to surround myself with closed minded or incredibly ignorant people) I shall make vague Will Smith references and see how they respond. 

Also, SO AMAZING LIVE.

ONCE YOU START YOU CAN'T STOP

MY BFFFFFFFL, MOON EYES CAT SO SHINY

CIERVO ALBINO/BLANCO/J&M CHAIN



an albino deer - ciervo albino

I really really like Jesus and Mary Chain.. when I first heard the name I thought 'creepy christian honeydew bible camp music, some old man will be sitting on a stump in carpi khakis playing the banjo to his eighteen children who are making daisy chains who will then simultaneously all harmonize together like the von trapp family singers' but I was wrong and I am glad I was wrong. Not that the latter wouldn't have been an exciting prospect.. 

This isn't a very interesting blog post. I made another blog because I decided I hated this one and I didn't post in this for ages, as is apparent by post dates but then I really couldn't be bothered and was overcome with nostalgic vibes for this. I really need to learn how to use the oxford comma or learn how to make my sentences make sense. I wouldn't say I'd be one to know good music over any other type of music unless I was having one of those LOOK AT ME, I AM SO GREAT, I RULE THE WORLD days or someone just had said something really idiotic like 'The Foo Fighters are my favorite band' or 'Chad Kroeger is my inspiration and I want him to be my babydaddy' or 'I look to Stephanie Meyer as the pinnacle of excellent writing' or 'Hey man, you should really buy some crocs, they're so comfortable' or 'Do u think I could b a modll?, RATE ME!!!!!111 1-10!' or 'Fritzo Jonas is more talented than John Lennon and Paul McCartney combined.' and unless they were being sarcastic I would probably secretly smirk in my head and feel musically superior, even though really some of those weren't anything about music.. whatever. 

For some age groups, you can predict what a persons musical taste is usually semi-accurately by the clothing they wear or way they speak but I guess that's no big news either, I suspect it's always been that way. People seem to think they must dress visibly in the style of the music they like to listen to. Is this some sort of primitive call for others like them to seek out this visual beacon and join them in, clusters and groups in combined yet incredibly lonely existences? Or maybe just exposure and association, etc, etc. I have forgotten my original point. Oh yes! I would smirk. But other than if the person in question had said anything mentioned above (or any other in my opinion smirk worthy remark) I wouldn't really be one to think I have superior musical tastes to others. I really do conform a lot though with disliking music I suppose.. I've heard a lot of people dislike Nickleback too, but then again they just are genuinely awful, and some bands like Camera Obscura which are just shitty people seem to like so maybe not.. I don't know. This is an awfully confusing post, I would edit it but I really don't care that much about what is posted here and I doubt anyone has read this far. If you have, I commend you and will think loving thoughts of you night and day until I cannot love you any more and I implode. I promise. 

Also, when I say Fritzo Jonas I am referring to that one with the curly hair. Oh wait..

I love you hipster mummymonk.



not even kidding.

anna says I have to credit her because she actually met this monk, apparently he kills all good knock knock jokes with his deathly silence. I wasn't aware there were good knock knock jokes.

I'm a hideous lazy blogger. Don't deny it.

And by the way, I don't care how much I have previously declared love for you - if I ever see you wearing a furry vest consider yourself disowned. If Karl Lagerfeld cannot make a fur vest look wearable brilliant neither can you. You are not Karl. You never will be. Although to be honest I hate it when my English teacher yells at me for making new words up. Protokeatic should be a word, thankyouvery much. When I point out that Shakespeare invented new words all the time she always gives me the 'You are not Shakespeare' line and it annoys me very much so. Anyone could be freaking Shakespeare given the chance and space to grow but apparently NCEA NZQA shit don't allow for creative freedom over the dictionary and english alphabet. From now on, protokeatic is a word. Use it freely as you will in whatever context you can imagine and don't credit me because crediting pisses me off. 

I can't remember the point of that random speel but I think oh, yeah, I hate it when people say things like that - the only exception being when I tell people they are not Karl. They never will be. Also the abundance of fat girls with platinum hair  and bright clothes trying to be Agyness Deyn, They are not Agyness Deyn and anyone is free to tell them this or yell this to them out of car windows. Example: 


Also, down below, I actually wish this right here had been me, sadly I do not live in Toronto. I'm pretty sure though that this piece of graffiti will soon become the new ian curtis wall, not that Toronto has an ian wall but still, if they did, it would. It's awesome. 


credit because people yowl like nightcats  if you don't give it and I am usually a nice person to alphabetsoupstudio for the picture. However not really because they didn't make the wall awesome, they just took a photograph on it and now are getting all the love and praise. Wtf is up with that shit.

Bang Bang, Shoot Shoot?

inspired; http://annaintheelements.blogspot.com

1. Smart design.

And I don't mean fridges that beep when you touch them while simultaneously saving 6 rare pink fairy armadillos with smart energy, or insert apple product here.



2. Music.

Music can make everyone happy. Candyland, by CocoRosie helps me to dream and A Minor Incident, by Badly Drawn Boy is like a really good meatloaf and a cup of milk.

4. Spending Money

Why? The blood rush, the thrill of a new thing, the building up of self worth based on posessions and cost. I would spend money on these Marlène cloth suitcases in a second.

4. Sarcasm.

Although none of this has been. Maybe the meatloaf bit, i've never had a really good meatloaf.
