Whoreloween

I am terribly sorry for these botch pictures. Took out of a mad rush to get a post up for Halloween. Anyway, turns out my Ritano Wingtip Boot has been back-ordered because there was no stock in my size, I will get it in December sometime instead. My scum of the earth sister Estelle, was too scummy to tell me because she didn't see the need. She's a dumb w* who needs help from me, for her standard English poetry because she sucks ass at English. I hate people who are only nice to you when they want something, bad. If I got those boots they'd be going straight up her ass. Anyway, enough of my raging. But still, I can rage more because it's Halloween and on Halloween, you're meant to be evil and filled with bad thoughts. Though she is such a w*, I hate her with the passion of 10000 suns.
Yes! Rings! The cross ring is from Harajuku in Japan and the Skull ring was from the lovely Christina.
This is the pasty surprised Cat face, just for Lily. And All you other readers out there wishing to see me as a surprised cat, BEHOLD! And also, the Zebra badge.
Urban outfitters Brogues that came ages back. Havn't posted them online before, but yes. They are beautiful. I may wear them tomorrow. :-) The patterns on these are amazing.. I really want love them more than I do.. but I don't think that's possible.
Have a great Halloween everybody and hope you all have fun partying, trick or treating, or whatever you're doing for the Halloween season. Have fun everybody! :)

Urban Outfitters: Feather Wrapper Cardigan, Leather Brogue Shoes
Cotton On: Black base outer shirt
Misc: Rings
Harajuku: Badge

What it means to be Eugene

To be honest, I'm ashamed with society today. This video puts all my views on stereotypes, bias, and prejudice into one massive ball of kitty litter and showers to anyone watching this video. This video made me think, made me wonder, why I bother pleasing others in the world.

This year, I met this girl. No, not another stupid, silly love crush. Something stronger, something more passionate. I enjoy talking to her. I enjoy making her laugh, I love her laugh; because honestly I have never met someone as kind, as sweet and as lovely as her. I spent a lot of this year getting to know her. We sat underneath some stairs talking for over 2 and a half hours, we had a blast of a time after school and we got to know each other so well, we spent so much time talking. She gave me advise, I gave her advise. We knew each other so well, and by this point I knew it was time I detached from my group which I had been in for 2 years, slowly, and now, I'm a nomad at school.

Drifting from group to group, meeting new people. Living a school life of nomadic tendency, befriending people I had never been friends with before, knowing people a lot better and seeing the world from the new perspective she had given me. This year I've taken up the enormous mental task of preparing myself for auditions for the school play Oliver next year. I want to be apart of something like this filled with spirit, and not be scared.

Being different, my dear readers/followers is beautiful. Aphrodite, the Greek Goddess of Beauty and Love is the manifestation of difference. Us as humans are all different and our differences are beautiful. If we all had the perfect body, the perfect face, no pimples, no scarring, we would not be who we are. Who we are are strong, independent people who do not need to rely on people to get through life.

To those who are reading my journey from this year, and are doubting themselves in life. Follow whatever lies ahead. For the good and the bad, it will shape you, and no doubt positively. Take me, the girl in the video, or whoever and just think, if we don't care what this horrendous, putrid world thinks of us, neither do you.

Thank you to the wonderful, amazing, incredibly beautiful girl that has helped me realise that the best things in my life are simple and are easy to achieve. I think a deep infatuation is starting to develop, and I don't think I'm really ready for it, and I don't necessarily think I'll reveal it to you either, but I guess I'll just have to keep enjoying your company until the time comes, it's all fine with me.

Summer Rays

Summer is nearly at the shores of Australia, and looking into my wardrobe makes me want to crawl up into winter again. All my clothes are all winter based, besides the odd 30 or so Tee-shirts I own. Summer is probably the season where I'm going to be posting 40,000 Outfit Posts because already, I'm already cutting another chunk out of my DSLR fund to joint buy a light summer sweater from Urban Outfitters.. It was on Discount, okay! Speaking of which, I'm in desperate need of some new shoes for summer, alongside some new shirts and shorts.. ahh.. I want too much. I'm probably not going to end up getting anything. Except, I'm desperate to get these;
they're completely amazing.. Ritano Wingtip Boot. They're like the brogues I got from UO, but in boot form.. want! $78.00 USD. Considering the Aussie dollar is fairly high, I'm probably gonna go shopping again.. ahh.. how sad.

Hoff Short - Wicker
Hoff Short - Australiana
Hoff Short - Watercolour
Hoff Short - Native
All these boardies are from Cotton On. I need new Boardies! We're swimming on Monday at school. so FML. Which ones? I like the first one. $29.95 @ Cotton On.

Linear

Reverting to life after exams is pretty dramatic. But I'm pretty much just sitting in class staring out the window, pondering when the next batch of dramatic sales for the 550D will come rushing to JB-HiFi. I don't know. :-( Anyway. This week was a week I could plot on a graph, therefore equaling "Linear". School just introduced this "Geometry bible" to Year 9, where the head teacher of Maths alongside the head of Maths from James Ruse, (I KNOW) wrote a guideline students must follow when proving geometrical figures. No abbreviations, full sentences, that take 10,000 years each to write. I hate maths even more now.


Life in Japanese is equally as frustrating. I mean, I scored the lowest Cumulative mark, and Yearly mark in the class! What is this! 72.5% For my Yearly mark, and a 80% Cumulative mark. Which means, the whole class got above 80%. I feel pretty good though, considering 80% is still a nice mark, (for me) but pretty burnt because the highest was 99%. Oh well. Always never.

Thanks to Christina who purchased this ring for me after hearing numerous/countless times of me rambling on about how much life would rock even more if I owned a skull ring. Thank you! And to Shaugath, the rival cat for taking this picture and confusing the heck outta me about where the hell the focal points are. But even so, your first time at handling a DSLR is pretty amazing.

And I'm also loving the awkard love scene behind me.. Suave.




I know there are better days ahead. (I Hope) I also went to a Steakhouse this week, that was incredible, as was the reptile lecture at the University of Sydney. I really want to go there to pursue some kind of Univeristy Dream. -exasperation-

Impulse


More of these stalking pictures because people like them? ( I think/I hope)

This was the last night I think. Me and Kristen (Kristoffer) were wandering the streets of Kyoto stroking random Japanese people on escalators throughout the night. But anyway, we went for parfait as our last Japanese meal, but I guess it really wasn't that Japanes-y when you think about it. We shared it and of course, everybody loves parfait.

After that we roamed Kyoto some more and then decided it was cold and went back to the hotel to get something to wear because we started to get cold from the night, so I got my drape and we went to Starbucks, well, I went to Starbucks so I could get a Chai Latte and Macaron. We ended up stalking this man and got photos with him too. I think he was a little creeped. Plus, I think he was 30+. Japanese people don't age. Shit you not, brother.

It's nice because in Japan, anywhere you can wear nice clothes and be complemented or be looked at. It's like Melbourne. In Sydney people who wear nice clothes are considered dangerous and probably smoke weed according to the general public. But anyway, wearing:
Cross Ring from Harajuku, Floral Ditsy Shirt 21 Men, Feather wrapped Cardigan Urban Outfitters, Prize bubble bracelet as well as tribal African bracelet.

I miss Japan and stalking young people, we met some 18 year old guys who looked 16 at the time on the bus one night and the girls started getting pictures with them and being idiots, and on the last day on our Maccas run in the afternoon, (which Kristoffer and Eunice (me) got 1000 yen maccas sets and om nomed on) we saw them! And they were like OMG JIZZ DROOL HOT JAP GUYS, and I have photos of one kissing/hugging this poor boy. Did he have a boner? Don't ask, he's Japanese.

Appreciative


So I've decided to do two more posts of Japan. I don't want my blog spammed with 2000 photos. I've also gotten my film photos developed and I'll post some nice ones up soon. I have amazing photos of everything. I must post! I have a nice fireworks photo I must post up as well.

Sorry I'm kind of dead with words right now. Exams have squeezed all the juices in my brain into a pile of mush that is not going to reform until they end. At least I'm thankful I'm not busting my brains in the Higher School Certificate. Good luck to those who are though! Anyway. Piano exams are 5 weeks away and I havn't learn one of my songs fully yet. I'm going to die a painful, painful death.. I need to study, learn pieces, and re-shape my mind back into a ball of solid matter before I can continue on with life. Also, the photo above was my first attempt at macro. Good, bad, yay nay?



More photos next post, my friends.

Japan (2) - I need to study

This post is a three day cram/summary in one post before I venture off into the lounge room with 10000 books in my hand ready to cram. I cancelled work today to study. That's a paycheck down the drain then :-( I woke up this morning ready to study, but slowly procrastinated by uploading photos from Japan onto Facebook. Yes, my life consists of many procrastinations. Anyway. The top two photos are boards where you write your wish on them for 100 yen. I wrote one, hehe. AND for some reason, before I continue this post, I LOST A FOLLOWER! And I know who you are. Lol, I kid. But it's pretty cutting. DO YOU FIND ME BORING?!?!
Tamagotchi land was awesome. It's actually a shop just dedicated to Tamagotchi merchandise! I bought a tamagotchi beanie.. it's my pet now. It's beautiful. Anyway, this street I'm about to show you if you scroll down is the good old, famous Takeashita street, also commonly known as apart of Harajuku! LOL. The shibuya photos are in the previous post, but they belong around here in terms of chronology.

Nothing gets more amazing than entering a whole shop dedicated to Lee jeans, and finding COLOURED LEES. Yes you see, you hear, you read, COLOURED LEES! They were so beautiful I spent 100000 years admiring their glory.
Topman was expensive. Full stop. $50 for a singlet? Go away, stop hurting my wallet's feelings :(
Up and below are shots from H&M. At first I thought it was all Ladies and left, but after seeing 1000 guys emerge from the basement I decided to give it another go. And my eyes, my eyes! So much to see, so much to shop! So much of everything! Ahh!
I got the zebra pin above for the tax price with my Asian haggling skills. Although, it only discounted by 60 yen. Which sucks. I wanted the Lion pin, but I was thinking, screw that, if I'm paying $10 for it I may as well buy something with more metal in it! So I got the Zebra. The panther pin was the best bargain but.. I didn't fancy it that much.
Disneyland was awesome. We saw these Kabocha (Pumpkin) Children and ran up to them immediately and asked for a photo from the parents. After taking a photo, 100000 other Japanese people asked, thus we started a chain of photos for these poor children. No, I didn't turn into a pedophile within two weeks in Japan, it's just Japanese Children are 10000000000000000 times more cuter than our Australian kids.
Pasta de ii?




The parade was spectacular, I was playing with the focus a lot and got this all bokeh shot of the fairy queen person. There are more photos of the parade on my Facebook. Oh! And the new background of the site was taken during the parade. Hehe. All credits to me!
The fireworks were also beautiful. I got some film photos of everything too 202 to be exact but some how, according to my mum, the developer said they all turned out "shocking" Bye bye 6 rolls of film :-( NO-ONE MENTION TO ME, I'M HEARTBROKEN!

SWEAT PETER PAN SWEAT. LOL. Yes I know I am a stalker with Yen's 26x optical zoom... Onto his face.
In conclusion, Disneyland was incredible and I would do it again. I've been to two Disneyland venues this year, and Japan definitely takes the gold in terms of.. everything! Japanese people don't pull any punches when they plan a good time.

My final concluding point is that I see a wave of textbooks and paper gushing towards me, oh crap, that's right, I'M BEING DROWNED BY FAILED YEARLY EXAMS!!!!!!! Time to go study!! CRAM CRAM CRAM, EXAMS IN MINUS 3 DAYS!!!!!!
