She Wrote Me Letters So I Wrote This Song

y'know what readers??
your lack of comments may have something to do with my lack of posts!!!
juss kidding.
wow. 32 followers!
i'm shocked. when did that happen?
Well I guess I should welcome my new readers:

Welcome everyone. Have fun reading about my mundane fashion choices and creepy obsession with Savage Garden.

My lack of posting is simply due to my lack of material. Sadly.
I have news though!!!
I started attending college again. It's community college but it's really fast paced and foreign.
But the campus is chill so no big deal.

I also got a financial aid return check for the first time EVER. It is seriously sweet and it has come in handy. This means lots and lots of thrifting, trips to MAC, getting the sweetest hat from American Apparel, and 2 pairs of Celeste Stein tights that I have been pining for. Oh and some other junk on ebay I've been meaning to buy.
All of which I will post pics of as soon as I stop being lazy.

This post is more for updates and less about cool stuff. Sorry. I just didn't want anyone to think I wasn't posting anymore.
I read lots of blogs but fail to update my own. lame, i know.

a couple photos to keep you interested.

Myself Is So Bad Ass Myself Is So Good

I have been sucked into this internet world.
I have become a digital version of myself.



This is a Mii I made of myself on Marg's old-roommate's Wii.
I had more fun making the Mii than playing the video game.

I have been spending wayyyy too many hours in front of my laptop watching videos on youtube, blogging, reading blogs, searching for weird stuff on eBay, and attempting homework.

Recently I've become very inspired by the Australian pop/rock duo Savage Garden. I really can't explain why or how but it just happened. And now I will start a quest to find both of their CD's at the thrift store. I know I've come across at least one of their CD's while thrifting. I also hope to find a Savage Garden t-shirt as well. That would be ultimate! Oh and I plan on documenting this quest.

If you don't believe in their awesomeness then check out this video for the 90's love song "To the Moon and Back". This is also my favorite of the 3 versions there are of this video.



Take note of the rad outfits and cheesy special effects in the video. Also the lead singer gets a little too dramatic with his hand gestures. But besides all that I adore the video and the song.

How did my day go?
Well I pretty much didn't have any class, I played with my friend Candy's chinchilla, met with my Entrepreneurship group, attended open mic night, and had a delicious dinner. Pretty good day if you ask me. It could have been wayyyy worse.

Your Dreams And Your Hopeless Hair

I was watching the music video for Savage Garden's song "Crash 'n' Burn" and I noticed that at the end of the song Darren signs the lyrics instead of singing them, then the words "Communicate Any Way Any How" appear on the screen. I thought it was a really cool message he was sending.

Then I thought it would be really cool to become a sign language interpreter at concerts.

So today while I was running errands at the grocery store I thought to myself "how cool would it be if I heard a Savage Garden song on the speaker system" and sure enough "The Animal Song" came on. I started smiling because I couldn't believe the coincidence.
As I was exiting the grocery store I saw a couple communicating with each other through sign language. I stared at them for a bit just to make sure I understood what they were doing.

I took these coincidences as a sign.

My hair is getting longer and longer. I still have not cut it and maybe I should.
I'm trying to get back to my original hair do' from childhood. Here is my hair inspiration!



It's kind of ridiculous right?!

Slim Twig as "Billy Zero" in The Tracey Fragments
Wasn't he just a little asshole in that movie.
I would marry the Billy Zero that existed in Tracey's mind :)
He was this totally awesome guy who becomes her savior and then when she really gets with him he's a total douche. Ugh! I know how that feels.

If You Became Deaf I Would Learn Sign Language For You




Future Husbands:



Darren and Daniel of Savage Garden
But they are both married.
Not to each other.
Darren has a husband and Daniel has a wife.
