She was the still point of the turning world

Some things I like to look at.

Life Is Life

This may be extremely late, but I saw this music video for Noah And The Whale's song, Life is Life, a while back and I've been meaning to share it since.
There's so many things to love about this video, especially the fact that it looks exactly like (and may just be) the town I've grown up/live in. Not to mention the colors; red, white, and blue, are some of my favorite colors together, which is odd considering how unpatriotic I am. But it's a different type of red white and blue from the bald eagle, american flag, hot dog loving type. No, this combination is much different, the video is minimal and beautiful and full of teenage/suburban angst.

Also it's hard not to love a peter pan collar blouse and red skirt paired with knee highs and oxfords. I've also always been slightly jealous of cheerleaders for the adorable outfits they get to wear, but the school spirit and coordination thing ruined that dream for me.
Anyway enough rambling, watch it and enjoy.

Couldn't you forget about being a cool teenager just for one night?



Well halloween is just around the corner and I've been feeling the spooky, candy-filled, witch crafty halloween spirit a lot lately. Look I even made you a collage to show my spirit. I can be cool too.
But, other than candy and collages, halloween movies might be my favorite part of this holiday. I'm a baby so most of the ones I watch aren't gory horror movies filled with axes and screaming girls, but they are filled with witches and cute clothes which is fun too right?
Right, so here are some of my favorites:

The Craft



Hocus Pocus



If you didn't have a crush on Max as a kid then there was something very wrong with you.

Memory Break

I'm currently cramming for a test tomorrow on a book I haven't read yet. I ignored it for weeks, so as always I've barely gotten anything done and keep getting distracted (clearly), but one of my distractions was too cool to not post about. I was going through my brothers old movies from when we were little and I found an awesome movie that me and my two brothers made one night that I have no recollection of but it's awesome.

Let's start with talking about how awesome I was, I think I was like 5 here which means it was either 1999 or 2000, either way I look like a bad ass, wearing an awesome flowery barbie shirt over a long sleeved floral shirt. I wish I still had that oufit, maybe I would still look this cool splashing water on my face if I did.

That computer was the best, so is that desktop.


The movie got pretty intense when colin was found dead for some reason.

But it's ok because someone else comes back to take his place as a detective and we get to catch a glimpse of his room at the time, too cool for words.

This has to be my favorite scene though, when we randomly end up in an elevator/my shower. I got yelled at a few times for looking at the camera.



Anyway you probably won't think this is as cool as I do, but at least I got distracted from my homework for a little while.

Something Pretty


Mondays suck. Here are some pretty things that will hopefully brighten it up a bit. xx

Storia d amore

My apologies for being so absent lately, school and life have just been very hectic.

But I absolutely had to take a second to share a video I came across, that is so overwhelmingly beautiful that it would be a crime not to.

It's entitled Storia d amore and it's directed by Kalle Gustafsson. I can't get over the gorgeous shots/people/music. It's definitely worth watching. xxx
