"We shall see that at which dogs howl in the dark, and that at which cats prick up their ears after midnight."

little known facts, take one

1. I have an entirely irrational fear that every time I kill/maim/smite a spider, it dies and the spirit tells it's psycho creepy spider brethren that I have done it harm and that they are collectively creating a spider army that is solely for my destruction. The worst part? I wish I was kidding.

2. I hold intense grudges but I don't get angry, like truly pissed off, often. In fact, I don't remember the last time I yelled at someone. I'm more of a...let it boil and froth around until I explode kind of person, probably.

3. When I was a child there were three jobs that really captured my heart. One: a florist, because I loved flowers. Two: a sheep herder, because they are just so gosh darn adorable. Three: a female James Bond, because I am that fucking badass. That, and I secretly want to run around in either a suit:

or a femme fetale dress:

kicking ass, and having a huge excuse to just feel so cool. And maybe get to live out my strange James Bond fetish/fantasy. Who knows.

4. I have a teeny tiny secret desire to be one day asked to be a model by a legit agency. Whether or not I'd take it is completely unknown, but for my ego it'd be amazing and it'd make me feel like I had one-upped a girl in high school who thought I'd be prettier if I wore tons of makeup.

5. I spend a lot of time in the shower thinking about the homework I didn't do and how I should have done it.

6. I kind of regret the person I was in high school due to the massive cases of mistaken and every changing identity I had due to my inability to be comfortable in my own skin.

7. I still love the Washington Redskins, despite how embarrassing they are, and yes, when you talk shit about them I will get angry. Usually, if I ignore you after said comment or something similar, there is a reason.

8. I played WoW. I miss it.

9. I'm addicted to flash games but am often too nervous to play first person shooter games because I know I'll get addicted and frustrated and cuss way too much for someone who is trying to at least have a little class. lol.

Peace. I'm going to go to the mini-gym here in Ducks.

a note to self

get off eBay. read shakespeare. get off eBay. you don't need more clothes. get off eBay. do your homework. get off eBay. get off eBay. get off eBay. get off eBay. get off eBay. get off eBay. get off eBay.

GET. OFF. EBAY.

state of osmosis.

I am not doing my Weimar Republic essay yet. It is 1:31 AM. It's due Wednesday...whatevs.

I have my Shakespeare open beside me, glaring at me with olde British crazed eyes.

eBay is open with my quest for scarves scarves scarves and a handbag.

I feel sleep coming, but no, no no! I know I will stay up for at least another 30 minutes.

as one would figure it, I am already growing weary in this month. It isn't that I'm not excited for some things (like fashion week!), but overall it seems as if my energy is already waning and I still have...so much longer to go. Then again, this is week two! Two more months and a new term begins...This one is already so much better than before, then again, last term was the pits. This term just has so much more WORK. And homework sucks.

I am still filling out things for Study Abroad. I hope everything goes well and I ultimately end up making the right decision!

OH WELL. Life goes on, and great things are happening.

Homme fashion week started in Milan this week... I am liking what I am seeing so far. I love the silhouettes, the colors, the fabrics (minus the strange drappery and VELVET.) and I even had a few surprises!

Hello Eddie Klint. The fashion world missed you.

fashion is weird.

Thank you lord for this comparison.
