Talk about one of those weeks.

My first free weekend in forever and the leadup to it has been phenomenal.

For one, weird shit went down in my dorms. ( Cut for Sick stuff )

Another thing is a couple of days ago I got called into the studio because they were holding a seminar with one of the new physical trainers/therapists. Now, one of the cool things about this studio used to be that they had a program with a nearby pilates studio which let us use their apparatus. Apparently, the studio's new trainer is having none'o'that as she prefers the Gyrotonics method. Now if the name alone doesn't strike a strange fear into you, then behold:


The words Gynecological Torture Device should never pop into anyone's head. Ever.

The minute I walked into that room it took every ounce of courage I boast to not run away, or ask to be excused for a change of pants. I did, however, excuse myself as this was the same day as the above mentioned Getting Sick incident and promptly went home to have a few dozen nightmares.

Now I realise I have yet to write about Halloween in New York City, and that is because it was so fucking ridiculously awesome that it loses awesomeness unless it's accompanied by pictures. So when Isa gets around to that, you will have my screaming, hysterical I-haven't-celebrated-Halloween-since-I-was-twelve fangirling.

Also, even though November has barely begun, Nutcracker season is once again starting to edge upon us. You can tell because there's usually some room locked with a girl crying inside of it. This year I can't participate since I'm going to Brasil, but alas. Because I ended up having to drop some school stuff, I'm at least getting to go into the studio more often during the day, and one of our teachers offered to go through one of the variations with me since mornings are a bit slower save for the company classes.

And finally, school stuff is actually pretty crappy. I actively despise fashion, it's true. A bigger empty and generally hollow community does not exist on this earth. I feel like it's slowly sucking the soul out of me, and yet I don't know. Because I'm keeping myself busy with stuff I like.. I'm actually surviving through it really well. It's the weirdest feeling, knowing you would ordinarily be depressed or upset and well.. Not. I'm actually still the happiest I've been in a very long time, I'm optimistic and confident and having a lot of fun. But it's a valuable experience, and next week I'm setting up an interview with another school. I went into fashion because I wanted to design costumes, I love the ability to tell stories through colours and shapes and I love research, but in fashion (at least in the AI) there is absolutely none of that, it's all focused on a broken Industry made up of equally broken people. But now I feel like I finally know what I want to do, what was missing from both InterRe and Fashion. Now I just need to sit down and crack down on my portfolio.

So while it's been fun, this has been one hell of an exhausting week!

Oh, and it cannot be said enough. Mad Men is fucking awesome. I don't get the hullabaloo over the writers being women, it seems really obvious to me that they are. Don Draper is what every woman envisions as a sex God and the perfect man (yes, even with the affairs,) and every woman in that series wields an insane amount of power and control. Sometimes I find it to be really glaring how much wish fulfillment goes on in this series, but then I'm promptly reminded this is little Gen Y me watching a series essentially about our grandparents having sex. The only tough part about Mad Men is that it's such a good series, but how, exactly, do you pitch it to friends? "Oh dude, Mad Men is awesome, you should totally check it out!" "What's it about?" "People who work for an advertising agency." "...And?" "...And. Uh. And. ...Our grandparent's generation having lots of sex?" It's like the most exciting boring show I've ever seen.

Hey everyone. Made some more icons, and thought I'd share again. ^^;

Hey all I was looking for some mood themes. I looked through the tags & found two I really liked but the links don't work anymore =( so I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some manga or black/white ones. Thanks =)

Someone deleted like 80% of the character list for Suikoden V from yuletide.

I know it was deleted because I nominated the fandom last year and I included all 108 characters and the character list should carry over from year to year.

Who the FUCK would DO something like this?! Who the FUCK thinks they have the right to decide which of the 108 characters are 'important' enough to be included on the character list and which aren't? There's no reason why all 108 shouldn't be able to be included.

I agree with pretty much everything this has to say...


Remarks from CBS Sunday Morning - Ben Stein


The following was written by Ben Stein and recited by him on CBS Sunday Morning Commentary.

My confession:

I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees, and Christmas trees. I don’t feel threatened. I don't feel discriminated against. That's what they are, Christmas trees.

It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, 'Merry Christmas' to me. I don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu. If people want a crèche, it’s just as fine with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away.


I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don’t think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period. I have no idea where the concept came from, that America is an explicitly atheist country. I can’t find it in the Constitution and I don't like it being shoved down my throat.

Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship celebrities and we aren't allowed to worship God, as we understand Him? I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too. But there are a lot of us who are wondering where these celebrities came from and where the America we knew went to.

In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it's not funny, it’s intended to get you thinking.

Billy Graham’s daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayton asked her 'How could God let something like this happen?' (Regarding Hurricane Katrina). Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said, 'I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we’ve been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?'

In light of recent events... terrorists attack, school shootings, etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK. Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school. The Bible says thou shalt not kill; thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.

Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave, because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said okay.

Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.

Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with 'WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.'

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world’s going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.

Are you laughing yet?

Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it.

Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.

Pass it on if you think it has merit.

If not, then just discard it... no one will know you did. But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.



My Best Regards, Honestly and respectfully,

Ben Stein
