  • hollywood ruined Gambit! dammit!

    I was a bit of a comic book nerd when i was younger. It's how I connected with my older cousins back then. Jim Lee's illustrations were a major influence on the way i drew. And I loved how Gambit looked. He's still and will always be my favorite <3



    when i heard they were going to feature Gambit in the latest X-men movie, i was hoping they were going to cast the guy that plays Sawyer on LOST. (goddamn he's hot)

    but instead, they had this little wiener in a purple shirt playing Gambit.



    boo. he didn't even carry Gambit's charming Cajun accent. wtf.
    and worst off, he was a total doofy idiot in the movie. he was not suave, he was not sexy, he just sucked. i guess they casted him young because they casted Rogue's character young too. *shrug* either way, it did not seem like a good choice.

    Hugh Jackman was pretty much naked in the whole movie, so at least that made up for it.

  • bangs

    you know who looks really hot with bangs?

    Zooey Deschanel.



    i am really gay for her. REALLY.

    i love how her dark bangs make her blue eyes stand out. she's gorgeous <3 and i am envious of her hair.

    so after several months of debating, i finally decided to get bangs as well. i've always had really long hair... and the shortest i've ever cut my front pieces were about down to the middle of my nose... but i thought it was time for a change and dared the girl to cut them short... like, right above my eyes short.

    the result?

    i utterly fail at pulling it off.

    ugh!

    so i started looking through youtube to see what other girls do with their ugly haircuts and most of them either wear hats or live with it in shame until it grows back. then i found this video of these guys totally knocking chicks with bangs (like keara knightly, wtf)

    i just hope it grows back fast :/
    what a bummer.

  • harsh realities, that i'm ok with

    I will NEVER be a size 2 For as long as I have lived, I've never been happy with my weight. no matter how much time I spend at the gym and how much I starve myself stupid, the smallest pants size I will fit into is a 5 or 6. I have my mother's hips and my body is simply not built that way.

    No matter how giving and generous I am, none of my friends/family/co-workers will ever appreciate me I have always been too quick to trust and help someone in need. I never asked questions or made a fuss. Whatever you needed, I would be there. If you were stuck in some god-forsaken place like Elizabeth NJ with a flat tire, i'd be on my way to help change the spare. But when I really needed something, no one would even consider helping. Yeah. That's cool I guess. I'll have to keep that in mind for next time...

    As much as I love art and music, I cannot make it my career. I will admit, I don't have a sociable personality. I don't think i'm talented enough to earn instant respect from others in the industry, and I don't have the motivation to chase after people to "network". The arts will always have to be second.... surviving with a paycheck will always be a 1st priority.

    Life is Short. Then you Die. Two people in my life just found out they are terminally ill. There isn't much I can do for them.... and as bad as I feel, I can't let this ruin my own life... I have to move on.

    ... more on this later. time for fireworks <3

  • i <3 London Elektricity

    my summer anthem for 09 <3


    the city's beautiful
    in the early morning air
    love the smell of sunrise
    and everything becomes so clear

    i wish that time would stand still
    and this was part of a film
    we would watch the clip all day
    like a portrait of you and i
    like a portrait of you and i

    the city's beautiful
    feel it in the morning air
    love the smell of sunrise
    everything becomes so clear

    i think you are beautiful
    and  you know it by one look
    did you long for summertime?
    when you were growing up

    well your life's just a breeze in eternity
    why not just take this one chance and come fly with me
    just this once

    just this second it soon will be gone

    and when it finally came
    it wasn't round for long
    you ecstatically stumble around
    one warm second, it's suddenly gone


    one warm second, it's suddenly gone
