- fashionista
- my sewing machine is my soul mate, and fabric shops are the happiest places on earth. i make pretty clothes too and pretty bags. i love dresses. and the 50s. dear god.
- crafter
- i come armed with scissors and glue; and if it's cut-able or glue-able, it's mine, and it'll look pretty in about half an hour.
- programmer?
- i think? mebbe?
- pirate
- arrrrr.
- muffin queen
- cookies are awesome too. i rule the empire of Crafty Muffins with an oven-mitted fist. and i ran a bake sale once! that was pretty fun. yayyy.
- i like my music like i like my men
- the dropkick murphys are exhilarating, flogging molly are charming, the hoosiers are quirky, death cab for cutie are cute, the postal service are romantic and the decemberists are just beautiful.

uninspired
it's killing me. waiting for that spark.
ze, you taught me that being "uninspired" is no excuse, but it's just so hard to create when all i have is gray in front of me. it's hard to absorb myself in what makes me bring life to things, without just copying other people, without remaking what someone else made brilliant. where do i pick up my themes? my palette? my paint brushes? where do the ideas come from? do i pick up one thing and force something out of it? or do i wait 'til something easy comes?
i just want to jump out of this mundane emptiness. grab something, cut it, sew it, create. what's stopping me? what's making me buy all this fabric only to wait until i get something from a charity shop to play with? how do i stop being typical, and start being amazing? note-worthy? inspiring? something other people bookmark for future reference.
i'll never be want i want. there'll always be someone else better, more remarkable, with more life and more colour than me. how do you ever fight that?0 komentarzy 487 dni

Days days days.
So in one day, I get two calls which may make my summer that little bit easier.
First? Tie rack, 6 hour Saturday job. Wow, a freaking break. Finally! And they're probably not idiots about it either, unlike that shitty Offbeat Clothing on North Bridge. Don't shop there. They cannot manage staff, they don't have staff, and they're refusing to pay me for my day's work. Or if you do shop there, bombard them, there's only two on the floor, max, take four people, steal stuff. Whee!
Second call? Random craft store. Temporary job, something to do with an online store I'd be helping with. Fun! Better yet, she asked me if I'd be available all of August/September etc, and I said until September 12th, and she said it was perfect! So no letting people down when I get a huge surprise that I'm getting into uni next year!
"I just wasn't sure if 11 As and B would be enough..."
So that's my Thursday and Tuesday prepared for. I hope to god whatever I'm going for goes well. Means I don't actually have to worry about a job. Which means sewing! And geetar! And society stuffs!
Yay.
Also, I'm in love with this Dr Horrible thing. Thank you Joss Whedon, and the Internet, for introducing me to such loveliness.
Maybe tomorrow I'll go bathe in another pool of fantastical fiction. Mmmm.0 komentarzy 490 dni

Everything just likes to come on at once, doesn't it?
When the wind picked up, the fire spread, and the grapevine seemed left for dead.
The northern sky looked like the end of days, the end of days.
The wake-up call to a rented room, sounded like an alarm of impending doom, to warn us it's only a matter of time, before we all burn.
Before we all burn.
We bought some wine and some paper cups, near your daughter's school and we picked her up, and drove to a cemetery on a hill, on a hill.
We watched the plumes paint the sky grey, as she laughed and danced through the field of graves, and there I knew that we'd be all right, that everything would be all right.
That everything would be all right.
And the news reports, on the radio said it was getting worse, as the ocean air fanned the flames.
But I couldn't think of anywhere I would have rather been, to watch it all burn away.
To burn away.
The firemen worked in double shifts, with prayers for rain on their lips, they knew it was only a matter of time...
Bring back the calm, bring back the easy, bring back the time to breathe and the time to listen. Bring back the patience, bring back the care, bring back the fight and bring back the sun in me. God I know it's in there somewhere.0 komentarzy 526 dni

I can't sleep, so I took out my Eee and starting posting on Bebo.
Also, my dad said my insurance doesn't cover my liability if the wheel falls off my car and you die (I mean, we wouldn't want that anyway!), so I'm gonna go get it fixed tomorrow morning... If I get up in time...
Happy Birthday Lauren!
I know it's tomorrow, but I got the reminder today, so I'll send the message now, as by tomorrow I'll have forgotten - but wishing you a very happy day, and hope you have fun.
All the very best for the new year, new term and everything else. Hope to see you soon. Really do - not just saying that. xxx
