Look what I got. It's a cheetah shirt. Thanks to Rachel, my friend, who didn't buy it yet found it, I got to have it instead WOO HOO !!! Snatched @ USED on Granville. Also at USED, I grabbed a ring + canvas bag....
I GOT A LITTLE SENTIMENTAL FOR YOU [KATHY], NOT DRAKE. BUT HE'S GOOD HERE. THUMBS UP-
And here's the Blackberry battery killer. I listen to this and How We Do by Mount Sims so much, I swear, it kills my cellular battery faster than WhatsApp does. #totalexaggeration. However, that's how much I listen to those songs. Maybe next post, I post How We Do, but this one's It's Not You It's Me by Coconut Records.
It's been a while
How you've come back in style
Singing hey na na na na na
Back on the block
Really nothing but talk Singing hey na na na na na
C'mon hey na na na na na
One two three
Tell her that I just can't go on
Tell her that there's just something wrong
Tell her that I just can't go on
Uh huh Oh no
Back by demand
Do whatever you can
You look older I can tell by your hands
Drinks only gin, says it's how to keep thin
And she's crying after every meal
Lord you don't know how you're making me feel
Rrraah
Tell her that I just can't go on
Tell her that there's just something wrong
Tell her that I just can't go on
Uh huh Oh no
Six records in
Don't know where to begin
Singing na na na na na
Tell her that I just can't go on
You'll follow through it's the best you can do
Singing hey na na na na na
Tell her that I just can't go on
C'mon hey na na na na na
Tell her that I just can't go on
Living's a beauty yet for me, humid death is coveted-
End of may. Hailing in the morning upon waking. Grab a thin Dior parka, AA toque over unwashed hair, cheap H&M shades, favourite (now lost) Agatha necklace, thick KISSA heels, and for some absurd reason, I also bring my 5-year-old Macbook in my Lululemon backpack. HEAVY HEAVY LIFE IS HEAVY MY EYELIDS ARE HEAVY.
Lack of sleep, I eat at Burgoo on Tenth Ave. The food is good, but not much appetite; it's a goodbye thing for Moon unni. Bye Moony. Your life is looking damn fine over the Pacific, in Korea. I guess the excuse I - perchance we - have in looking like SHIT in these pics is that school had just ended, and Moon also just finished her convocation.
As the day progresses, I make my way across town to Chinatown for some social time between conference execs. I try to make myself as comfortable as I can as I sweat in my AA toque. Hail clouds were then replaced by sun. Fuck Vancouver weather. On the other hand, I was having a good time drinking red wine (continuously) and nomming on handmade potato fries + lots of aged cheddar. Courtesy of Costco and Ira.
The weather stress I had during this day is NOTHING compared to the timetable stress I've got right now. But let's not complain about university. #firstworldproblems
I know the weather's super nice in Vancouver and all right now.. but it doesn't even make a difference. I'm working almost everyday and I'm tired of the sun, happiness, tanned skin, and the ideals of summer. I just need cold, dry skin, snow, rain, and layers of clothes.
F A L L / W I N T E R 2 0 1 1
Derek Lam[fur, poncho things, black dresses, motorcycle boots w extra heels] How can one NOT be excited for FALL WINTER !??!!?
Proenza Schouler [New Zealand-ish tribal print, separate pieces that work as if it's a jumpsuit, leather, and bold deep colours] Can I go traveling and f*ck school this winter ?!!!?? GOSH.
But here's the big thing: DEREKLAM X PROENZA SCHOULER = WILFRED FREE PONCHO CAPE
On the Aritzia website, it shows that the cape only comes in one colour, but that's a lie. Because I went to Aritzia today and tried on TWO different colours. I liked both. I'm seriously thinking about getting this. It'd be a piece that I would wear everyday to school..... during finals season. And to bars and clubs, obviously-
Haha, too funny. I know. Okay. I'm losing it cuz it's like 3 am now.
Good bye !!
Breathless, "I don't know if I'm unhappy cuz I'm not free or because I'm not free, I'm unhappy." This flick's so sexy, so scrumptious + so sad that I cry cry cry. French is a film language and Godard is a masterpiece himself. "Two things are important in life: for men, women; for women, money."
Walkabout, I watched this movie basically twice back to back. I just HAD to watch it again with commentary on. It was such a special film with grand ideas poised in smaller things. Definitely recommended to only those who can sit through lots of silent, background music filled scenes with not too much action or dialogue. It teaches us, as participants of the modern society, what true pureness and innocence that can only be found outside our everyday lives are. Beautiful cinematography + original sound track. Casting's spectacular.
Transformers 3, I'm such a sucker for blockbuster's. I just can't wait til I watch Cowboys + Aliens. Hehehehehehehe. Cried a lot during this third installment of the series... Rosie Huntington-Whitely over Megan Fox ANY DAY. Shia will always have my respect. He's carrying Hollywood on his perfect shoulders. I wonder what kinds of films he's going to do in the near future...
Horrible Bosses, talk about a good comedy gone bad when it lasted for TWO hours. Horrible aftertaste. It still had its funny moments and I would say that this is Jennifer Aniston's ONLY decent movie that she has ever made. She was in a total of 20 minutes... Maybe that's an exaggeration and she was in about 28 minutes of the movie...... Yup, not a fan.
Midnight in Paris, Classic Woody Allen with wonderful acting. This one is on my BUY ON DVD/BLURAY list. FOR SURE. I would watch it over and over again since a) deals with my favourite time in history, the 20s b) has Fitzgerald as like one of the main 20s characters, c) Adrien frickin' Brody, yo !!!!! Okay, yeah. This movie's near perfect.
The Trip, I really need to watch this movie ASAP. Excited to see Steve Coogan act again !! :D
Korean TV survival show- That phrase sounds lame. But this show is not lame. Like all Korean things, it is obviously OVER-DRAMATIC and its purpose is to MAKE EVERYONE CRY and leave the audience an unforgettable IMPRESSION. So at first, I was just like MEH. And then it started getting reaaaaaally good and I started getting as obsessed with it every Sunday afternoon, just like my father.
It's called 나는 가수다 (I Am a Singer). The 7 singers that are battling each other are all legendary in Korea; they are the top of the top in all different genres. At the end of three weeks that include two live performances, the singer with the lowest amount of votes is sadly eliminated. That may sound somewhat rude to have a reality show with these top singers, but in fact, this show makes them even better. They feed off each other, the energy, and the chances given to them to break through walls they didn't even know that existed. For me, this is truly inspiring, but just really entertaining. HAHA. It kind of makes me feel pathetic though.. it's like WTF am I doing....... ? Heh. Heh heh.
