OMG how many wednesday's have I missed? There is a really good reason for that. I've kind of run out of wishing for things. I mean there are things I still want but they're all kind of... well materialistic. I mean they all have been but it feels like it's the wrong time for that right now. But I will tell you more of my materialistic wants today because I feel in the mood to =D
I want this fellow, not with white skin though... with natural pink but it's the make up that I would like. I've been talking to Blue too much about these dolls and I keep wanting them more and more but at £300+ I can't really justify having one. Overglorified barbie dolls technically but so so so pretty. I'd have to develop the character before I bought one too. I know I want to make a Reki (fem), Seppha (male) and a Snow (male) but I also kind of want to make L'luo and Dust (both male) and possibly Ryan (obv. male). I tend to make up male characters it seems =p. Although I have just seen an almost perfect Rosemary... I need to get off this website. Snow will be a difficulty to get because he has elfin ears and they aren't easy to get, they also tend to have vampire teeth when they have pointed ears and he certainly doesn't want that. Dust will be tricky to get the right skin tone (being overly tanned) and then all the wigs will be really tricky and will have to be customs...
I should make less complicated characters =p
I'm getting a jacket similar to that one hopefully tomorrow. It won't be real leather... some sort of synthetic nonsense but it's a nice shape and style. I'm also hopefully going to get a proper leather one soon. I might look at the leather ones tomorrow and things may change. I'm into being a biker chick right now. I think that's the Reki influence. She's a lot cooler than I am. Maybe I'll just buy both =D I do like having clothes. This isn't really a wishlist item since I know I'm buying one or the other tomorrow but it is something pretty I want =D
I want to learn to walk in high heels. I can't even walk in shoes with anything more than about an inch. I would love to be able to go out in heels and it not break my feet within seconds. Have I discussed this already? I don't know but I have a desire to go out a little more often than I have done and I would like to be able to wear heels (with cons kept in my bag as an emergence back up =p) so I'm going to practise in my little town shoes. They're really cute. We'll see if I can do it.
Ok done now. That was kind of meh actually. I was wondering why I am part of so many different blogging devices and I can't actually work out why. I don't know why I tell people about the things I do or want. I have a twitter, tumblr, live journal and here. Only the live journal is hidden (because that's for a completely different purpose). Why do I blog? Why do I tweet? I don't honestly know. Am I looking for the internet fame that seems to occur to some people? Or am I just doing it for the experience? The craic? So my friends know more about what I am doing and maybe it will spark a conversation since I am pretty introverted at the moment? I'm not really sure.
Although I am a bit of a contradiction at the moment. I'm introverted except I've made my hair pink (and that got a lot of looks), I'm dressing up like a biker chick (that has involved some very very short skirts) and idk I feel a bit like I'm bouncing back and forth between different ideas. I have an urge to give myself a moustache and travel into town on the bus... but I don't think that would be the best idea I've ever had =p also then I'd be doing tai-chi with an eyeliner moustache... mebs not =p (edit: tai chi isn't even on today so that was a moot point).
For a long time I didn't like this band. You know that song? I Write Sins Not Tragedies? It was that song. I was on holiday and I woke up at least once every hour from about 2am with the lines "I chimed in with a 'haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?'" going through my head. I would have loved that song if it hadn't kept me up all night running through my head. I started listening to it recently and it has improved from just background music to music I would choose to listen to (and have rocked out to on the bus). I had the same thing with Fall Out Boy, they had to grow on me before I enjoyed their music. It's certainly going to be part of my playlist from now on =)
And rising =)
These albums are the ones I have by Emilie Simon, who is a french electronica artist. The first two (self titled, and vegetal) are very electronicapop (not electropop which is more owl city and cutesy people or like dance pop... this is electronica techniques with a poppier vocal... I know what I mean). La marche de l'Empereur is the soundtrack for the film (in English) The March of the Penguins (voice over by Morgan Freeman). It's a different sound but still very nice. I've been listening to her a lot. Some of her songs are in French and some are in English and all of them sound wonderful. I really like her music. Seriously check her out because she's interesting. I love Dame de Lotus and En Cendres (both from Vegetal) and I absolutely love her cover of Come As You Are (Original by Nirvana) which is from her live album A L'Olympia (I only have this track from there). There is also a Velvet Underground cover of Femme Fatale on the self titled album that is wonderful.

Ok I couldn't find the right cover but that will have to do (I am always bothered by not being able to find the right cover for things!). So I found this book in the local secondhand book shop (called The Keel Row for those who know) and thought... why not? I wanted to watch the film at some point but why not read the book first and see what the craic is. It's a pretty good book actually (a novella technically and it came first which I like =) ).
I can see the link in style from the way Holly Golightly speaks and the way that Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl talks (Blair wants to be Holly and B@T is her favourite film so it makes sense but it's such a nice link!). She is an interesting character who doesn't really seem to know what she's doing except maybe she does she just pretends not to. It's a bit Catcher in the Rye (although set over a much longer period than just a few days).
It was enjoyable and not too long. The plot was nice but was more socially revolving than plotbased. It was a nice read. There were three other short stories in my version and they were rather nice as well. Again revolving more around thoughts and feelings and memories than plot but that is a nice change =).
I recommend it and now hope to snag a copy of the film from Joey who in turn gets to borrow the book =D
8/52 (I'm so behind on my book challenge... *shrugs*)
Ok, off to do a different task on my list of tasks to do today =D
Love Buttercup xxx
