Lemon Meringue Tie

Eyy kids, how is everyone on this potentially fantastic Sunday? I have yet to leave my room so I have no idea.

Today I feel tired...in that groggy headache-y just want to crawl back in bed for a year kind of way.

so pretty much like this x__x


Today is awesome because this weekend was awesome.


Questions:
1. What do you think of Palin/Biden?
Basically...I think Palin is an idiot, and radically conservative, which I'm not a fan of...considering my views are typically liberal-ish.
I actually don't know much about Biden except that apparently he's kind of sexist...

2. What is your opinion on the gay marriage issue?
Love is love. In addition to sooo many human rights violations, it's also kind a contradiction on separation of church vs. state. I mean churches shouldn't necessarily HAVE to marry couples if they don't want, but homosexual couples should still be able to receive a marriage license. I almost wrote a three page paper on this topic..so I'll stop before it gets out of hand. :]

3. Is your school or home doing anything to become more green?
Recycling cans at school.
Recycling everything at home.
But personally I'd love to have an ecoclub or something...hmm

4. Come up with a nail polish color, describe it, name it.
Really brilliant bright red.
I'd call it Scarlet O'Hara.
[but personally I love the gay Batman and the Clue nail polish ideas lol]

5. Suggest a decent band that you think the rest of us might not have heard of.
GirlTalk
Japan and I
Adelaide
Soko
Dance Gavin Dance
The Polysics
[AND I ALSO LOVE ARCHITECTURE IN HELSINKI! :DDDD]

6. What was the most outrageous/funniest/weirdest/crappiest excuse you ever used to get out of PE and if you haven't...well why do you want to do PE?!
I've never been good at lying or excuses...so the crappiest excuse I've ever done was purposely forget my gym clothes so I had to sit out. lol. But I hate PE with a passion.

7. Tell me if you agree with my theory that's sweets do have a weird smell.
Yes indeed they do. Especially gummies and things with peanuts.



Sounds like every one's lives have been pretty hectic...and my guess is it's only going to get worse lol. Fall is my most chaotic time, and it stays pretty chaotic until the end of the semester.

So updates on life...I'm currently making my way through the Gossip Girl book series, and reading a few Chuck Palaniuk books intermittently. I just finished watching Ugly Betty Season 1, and hopefully I can make it to Blockbuster today to rent Season 2. I really really love this show...probably because it has three of my favorite things: love, fashion, and nerdiness. :D

I saw three movies this weekend [I only had to pay for one of them so so it's all good].

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist - I freaking loved this movie so much. Partially because I have a huge crush on Michael Cera, and partially because it has great dialogue and a sweet soundtrack. I definitely recommend seeing it.

Eagle Eye - Once again a movie made even better by a cute boy, this time it's Shia LeBoeuf. [Did anyone else used to have a crush on him in Even Stevens? I did. Oi.] This one was good, but kind a little too mainstream-action flick for me. Basically a whole lot action and not a lot of story...I dunno...basically I liked it but I wouldn't see it again.

Blindness - The director of this [Fernando Meirelles] also directed an amazing movie called City of God...but I didn't really like this one as much. It's very...stressful and sad and violent and there is a whole lot of sex. I don't know if I would recommend it...ehh maybe it depends on your mood.


Hmm what else...
School is going pretty well. We have A/C and B/D days, and A/C days have become my favorites because I have French, Literature and Composition, US History and Study Hall. French has been really fantastic this year because we're learning more cultural stuff and my teacher is crazy and amazing. My Lit teacher is one of those sort of chaotic people who loves everything and is just like...passionate about life/her job...we're reading the Scarlet Letter which I hate but after I look up things on Spark Notes it's actually an interesting story.... US History gets fun second semester but the teacher is great and hilarious.

Work is good. I've befriended most of my coworkers and managers and my hours have gone down a bit so I'm a little less stressed.


I guess that's about it, besides showing you what I got when I went shopping yesterday:
Three tshirts from Delia*s [I could pretty much buy every tshirt they sell and my life would be complete]

























































A pair of boots from Blowfish [in grey]



















Plus a black cardigan from H&M and some insanely soft socks from Bath and Body Works.




Oh yeah...speaking of shopping. These shoes are $520 but I'm seriously considering saving up for them...or at least searching for some cheaper substitute. If these shoes were a boy I'd marry them . <3















I suppose that's all. Hope everyone's week goes well. DFTBA




Question: Find a pair of shoes online or a picture of a pair of shoes you don't have but you really really want to have. :]


and if you watch Project Runway WHO DO YOU WANT TO WIN


[I'm stuck between Leanne and Kenley]

Please just pray/send good thoughts to my friend Diondre and his family, his dad died this weekend and it's just really awful and sad.

I saw Nick and Norah last night and LOVED it!

And those shoes are freaking fantastic.

And...I really like both Leanne and Kenley...but currently I'm leaning more towards Kenley.
