The 61st Annual Prime Time Emmys - Best Dressed
Sep. 21st, 2009 | 03:45 pm
My number one pick for Best Dressed has to go to both Mila Kunis, not only was her dress wonderful her hair and makeup suited it perfectly and Jennifer Carpenter who always seems to get it right, her dress was something very special.

Wispy and floaty Monique Lhuillier

Jennifer Carpenter in Zuhair Murad, a stand out.

Blake Lively in daring Versace

A glowing Heidi Klum in custom made Marchesa

January Jones in Atelier Versace, i love the originality of this gown.

Leighton Meester made a lot of worst dressed lists with this dress but i actually like it, it's a different take on the overly worn Grecian style.

I actually really liked this dress, i just find myself getting tired of Olivia Wilde, shes been doing too many 'look at me' antics lately including this very revealing dress, she needs to lay low for a while, no more crotch flashing photo shoots either ty.
Some other notable best dressed were Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Rose Byrne, January Jones, Lindsay Price and Sandra Oh, i liked them, they just weren't great.

Reminds me of Penelope Cruz's dress a few years back at the Oscars.

This dress would have been beautiful had she not lost her curvy figure.

Modcloth Obsession
Sep. 18th, 2009 | 07:14 pm
mood:
excited
I just spent wayy too much money on Modcloth, that lovely little site Hipsters sometimes abuse. Fear not i didn't buy anything too insane but i am obsessed with their dresses and coats and pretty much everything; plus it's entirely unfair that they upload new dresses EVERY SINGLE DAY, even my mother loves forcing me to go to their site and look at the 13 or so pages of lovely pretty dresses. This is my first *international* purchase and i spent a bomb, if these dresses don't arrive in the next two weeks i will cry myself to sleep.






I also got some jackets i couldn't go past, my favourite being my 'tribute' to Michael Jackson.



Someone needs to take my plastic away from me.

Maybe Changes.

calm
Dare i say it things seem to be slowly looking up, i have no particular reason to feel this way but i've decided to go with it simply because spending the last seven years of my twenty years in depression has taken a toll and i want to be positive for once. It's hard to harness happiness sometimes, i see other people around me living and i want that too, it's going to be hard to readjust into society again after spending so much of my time inside my secure four walls but i'm willing to try. I hope 2010 brings me more happiness, or at least some contentment, i don't really want much in life, i just want contentment, i want to look back in a few decades and say yeah i've lived and yes i'm happy. I want someone to love and who loves me, i want a nice comfortable modest home and happiness. No money, no social status and no job will bring you that contentment, it's more precious than anything in the world to truly feel that and appreciate yourself and those around you, i want to become that person, maybe i will. I hope.

To lose such an important listener in life is like losing my shadow. With no shadow, does a person truly exist under the sun? With no listener, does a person really have a voice? Silence means so many things to human beings. Some of them are unbearable.

Singapore!

music: Radiohead - In Limbo | Powered by Last.fm

Early days i know, my birthday is in exactly four months from now but i've decided i'm going to go to Singapore with my mother, 90% certain and very nervous i haven't been overseas yet (although i'm turning 21) and i'd like to spend my 21st with someone i care about i've never been a big partier or drinker. Does anyone live in Singapore/been there? What should i expect what are good hotels etc? I'd love to know experiences and what to expect i think i'll be staying around 7 days and might make a trip to Malaysia. First on my list is orangutans my beloved favourite animals i can't bear to be in that area and not see them, knowing me the moment i spot one i'll cry my eyes out i'm incredibly devoted to saving them and spreading Palm Oil awareness that i'll find it hard not to adopt them all and take them home with me. After that i'd like to go shopping, see other islands or places that are off the beaten track and get to know the local culture, gah i'm excited and i have 16 weeks to calm my butterflies, my social anxiety is reeling.

I like that whenever i clean the house that never extends to putting Montys toys away, they're all over the house, the bedrooms, in the beds, in the kitchen, bathrooms, loungeroom, in furniture, on top of tv's...everywhere and yet they're 'furniture' i would never think to put them away and make him sad, i love when i come home and the first thing he does is pick up a toy and squeak it like mad to relieve his excitedness that someone is home. He is my world and right now he's sleeping with his head on top of one of his very favourites.

Skins 3 Ep 1 *spoilers*
Sep. 1st, 2009 | 12:04 am

Finally caught the first episode of season 3 of Skins, thankyou Australia for taking so long to show it. I've been waiting so long to see whats happened, my friends have already given me mixed reviews so i've been waiting to draw my own conclusion. I really loved the first two seasons, the characters grab you, it's an original format and it's a no holds barred look at being a teenager albeit a little stereotypical. The first episode felt a little bit forced with the 'comedy' with the overly tedious bumbling teachers introduction but aside from that what i know of the cast has been pretty okay.
They're a different bunch, I couldn't draw favourites as quickly as i could with the last group but i didn't hold that against them, it was afterall, the first episode but i did love Naomi Campbell, she's as feisty as her namesake. The three 'musketeers' Cook, Jamie and JJ were interesting don't know if i got the 'Sid and Tony' like bond from them but they're fun to watch.
Pandora was sincerely adorable last season, Effie's silly sidekick but i swear they made her oafish this season, was her voice always that deep? Effie herself looked lovely, ethereal or whatever you'd like to call it but i don't know how i feel about that sex scene maybe i'm a prude but i didn't think she'd get down and dirty so quickly and so...easily.
I'm indifferent to the twins at the moment but that'll probably change, i like seeing the 'power struggle' between Katie and Effy and the little hints towards the last cast, gah i miss Sid and Cassie.

Half-Blood Prince
Aug. 31st, 2009 | 07:37 pm
Yes i'm late to the party but i've been sick the past few weeks so i haven't been able to go and see my beloved sixth installment and its been killing me! So i braved my wheezy cough and my blood shot eyes and stuffy head to go see it and i'm pretty happy with what David Yates did with it! I was expecting to be disappointed or noticing parts missing but the parts that were missing were inconsequential and it was such a faithful adaption minus the Weasley house being burnt to the ground but i suppose it's a movie and they needed something to make everyone jump midway. I did wish that they would have maybe shown a memory of visiting the Gaunts and getting the Peverell story out of the way so it would make better sense next movie but overall i was very pleased and Yates definitely redeemed himself from the pretty meh adaption of Order of the Phoenix. Luna was adorable as usual she is honestly the best cast young person in the entire film, Tom Felton as Draco has always been a solid performer and he handled the darker role much better than i expected and the three main principles are much better actors than they were even a few installments ago. Gah i cried like a wee baby at the end although i really felt empty as if Dumbledore wasn't sent off in the way i would have wished, there was no funeral, no banding together of the wizard community to send off one of the most amazing characters in literary history and it made me sad...i wonder what would have happened if Alfonso Cuaron had continued the series instead of Yates sometimes or if Terry Gilliam wasn't such a diva, how the series would have turned out under his helm...hmm something to think about.
I really don't want the movies to end, i don't think i could live through having the books end and the movies and it all being...finished.

I love you JK Rowling.

mood:
aggravated
I've recently been re-reading the Harry Potter series and i am SO glad i have, the closer i get to the end the more emotional i seem to be getting because it's the kind of story you wish would never ever end and when the movies finish too i'll probably lock myself in my room for days in total devastation because Harry Potter is total genius and i owe so much to J.K. Rowling for giving me this story. It makes me sad that people who used to appreciate Harry Potter are now calling Stephenie Meyer 'the new JK Rowling' which couldn't be any more furtherer from the truth there is no one like J.K. Rowling and there never will be and Twilight is a horrible written, plotted and unverdeveloped piece of shit i really wish it would GO.AWAY. Anyway back to Harry Potter, i started reading these books when i was twelve and i'm now twenty and i still appreciate them and find them as moving as i did way back then. I hope Rowling aka HBIC will bring out another awesome series so that Meyer can go back to Arizona and impale her mormon self on an extremely lethal cactus.

I can't stop listening to this song, it reminds me of my ex and what i wish he would have said to me instead of being too afraid to fly here to be with me.
For a second there i thought you disappeared
It rains a lot this time of year
And we both go together if one falls down
I talk out loud like you’re still around
And i miss you
I’m going back home to the west coast
I wish you woulda put yourself in my suitcase
I love you
Standin all alone in a black coat
I miss you
I’m goin back home to the west coast
And if you shake her heart enough she will appear
Tonight i think i’ll be stayin here
And you never did like this town
I talk out loud like you’re still around
No nooo!
And i miss you (ooooh)
I’m goin back home to the west coast
I wish you woulda put yourself in my suitcase
I love you
Standin all alone in a black coat
I miss you
I’m goin back home to the west coast
So pack up the bags to beat back the clock
Do i let her sleep or should i wake her up
You said
We both go together if one falls down
Yeah right, heh
I talk out loud like you’re still around
No noo!
And i miss you (ooooh)

sad
music: Childhood - Michael Jackson
What a sad sad week it has been for Michael Jackson fans. I can't even begin to get over what has happened to him, to know he died with sadness when he gave us so much joy and even sadder, to know that the media and still so many people turn their back on him regardless of his talent. They want to remember him by the unfounded accusations held against him they don't want to see that nothing was ever proven and they can't see through that and to his amazing genius music he created. The media prefer to talk about his eccentricities, the drug use and the trials but they don't respect the man who gave us so much. I only hope that in time his music will speak for him when he couldn't speak for himself and i'll leave you with the lyrics and the video of a song he said himself was about his life and should anyone want to know who he was, to listen to it.
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for the world that I come from
'Cause I've been looking around
In the lost and found of my heart...
No one understands me
They view it as such strange eccentricities...
'Cause I keep kidding around
Like a child, but pardon me...
People say I'm not okay
'Cause I love such elementary things...
It's been my fate to compensate,
for the Childhood
I've never known...
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
Like pirates in adventurous dreams,
Of conquest and kings on the throne...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me,
Look within your heart then ask,

People say I'm strange that way
'Cause I love such elementary things,
It's been my fate to compensate,
for the Childhood I've never known...

Like fantastical stories to share
The dreams I would dare, watch me fly...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me.
The painful youth I've had

I'm trying to write a book and whenever i tell anyone about it their first reply is "oh so Twilight then?" which peeves me right off, Stephenie Meyer has ruined the vampire, now a generation of tweenies will think all vampires are Edward, bring on the motherfucking Nosferatu.

I don't think i find myself very interesting.
Everybody thinks they're unique and in a way i guess i am but it's not my forte. I am who i am, i like what i like so i guess you could call me stubborn? Ever since i could remember i loved dinosaurs, if i could go back to any time period it would be when my beloved Bracchiosaurus were alive, i want to own one as a pet someday. I also prefer spending my friday nights indoors watching a good movie rather than clubbing, i'm a homebody.
Anyway i doubt anyone would read this but if you do, sorry for wasting your minute.
