confessions

In the past few days, I think I've become a shopaholic. I've bought three dresses, five tops, a pair of shoes, three pairs of earrings, two pj pants..etc. Usually I would post photos of my new purchases, but there are so many, I'm thinking I'll skip it. The best part is, on one of my shopping trips, I should have spent $300 or so on a Wayne Cooper dress, two Peter Alexander Pjamas and a hat. But on that day, all that left my purse was $26. That just goes to show you, you don't need to spend up big, to buy good quality clothes.

I hadn't gone on a really good shopping trip in a while, and now that I have gone pretty much everyday for a week, I'm sick of it again. Although if the two pieces I've had my eye on in Myer go on sale, I might just have to force myself to go and buy them.

Recent realisation: Febuary is the best month for Shoe sales. Most shops go for up to 75% off.

Now, with all that shopping I still didn't get those things I really need.

1. A new purse. My current one has.. shall we say, seen better days.
2. Sunglasses. I broke my beautiful vintage French pair. I hate it when they find themselves onto the seat I'm about to sit on.
3. A bag. A fairly large one, I need it to carry my university books. I found one, but then I forgot to go buy it on my way out.
4. Casual shoes. Flats, just everyday shoes. Desperate.
5. Jacket. A nice, fitted winter jacket. Wish I could snap one out of gossip girl.

After a big night out, I'm going to bed early. A first for me.

On second thought I probably won't be able to commit to that.

achievement

So I was sitting at home, feeling a little bored. That's when I decided to make something. Anything. Just to feel like I have been productive. So I made a paper crane. It's my first one, and it wasn't as hard as it looks. Then again I did follow instructions. Make one, It makes you feel proud. Here's mine:

Here's the website I used, in case you feel inspired. Good luck xx

These are amazing, I wish I could make them:

this could be a story

I had such a good conversation with a complete stranger today. It's funny how you can just let loose and be your complete, flawed self when you don't know who you're talking to. The best part is when they respond with the exact same humour as you have, because it means you're not alone in your crazy, immature and sometimes odd ways. I'm hoping I don't sound like a desperate person, that needs to fit in to the crowd to be complete. But I kind of feel like it was a message.
I admit that from time to time, I may get little pangs of insecure thoughts. It was like the big guy up there wanted me to know that everyone is different, but different people are also the same, and it's a good thing. Does that make sense?

And thanks Nick and Damon, you guys made my day. Maybe one day our paths will cross. Just like you said.

her name is alice


Since watching the Disney movie version of Alice in Wonderland back in my childhood years, I've had this crazy fascination with Alice. I love everything to do with her. I love fashion inspired by the story. I love music inspired by her. Lewis Carroll, or rather Charles Dodgson was a genius and the history behind the writing of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is beyond interesting.

Without going on too much about my obsession, I'd like to mention my disappointment about Tim Burton's version of the book coming out this March. Don't get me wrong I'm still excited as hell to see yet another depiction of the greatest children's book of all time; Although I found out Tim Burton has made Alice into a 19 year old girl, returning to wonderland with no memory of her first visit. A sort of sequel. I'm thinking it's going too far from the real thing. But that's okay, I'll just re read the book again afterward. And it will be like it never happened.

this is ugly

I've probably posted something along the lines of my point before. But my frustration continues to grow. People are ugly. I'm not talking about physical ugliness, not that I believe in it. I'm talking about that cruel, disgusting thing that lives in 90% of the people in this world. Maybe people are becoming harsher with the changing times, or maybe I have been blinded by the innocence of childhood. Humans just don't care about one another. Sure, it's easy to be kind to your best friend or sister, but what about that woman that passes you by on your daily walk? Or a random man that accidentally knocks you on the train?

I've always cringed at those cheesy poems about "friends being a treasure to hold on to". It's never been more clear to me how relevant those sayings really are. In the end you can't depend on the kindness of strangers, because they don't give a damn about you. Sure, they may smile at you; if only to avoid feeling guilty about it later. Humans are ugly because they will do anything to get what they want. We will lie, steal, hurt and kill. And when we get bored, guess what? We will lie, steal, hurt and kill. I mean, what kind of sick person tortures animals? Crashes a plane into a building? Takes pleasure in causing harm to a fellow human? I feel sick looking down at my own hands and knowing I am the same organism as they are.

I have been opened up to a lot of awful people recently. Perhaps they aren't as bad as the murderers and terrorists stinking up our pure planet, but they certainly leave their mark when it comes to the bigger picture. My point is, your really must stand back and appreaciate those few people in your life you can trust and laugh with. Sorry, but the reality is they don't come along very often.

Gosh, that last line sounded preachy.
Night,

Kay xx
