get your crystal method on

Corsetry and being a woman is a pretty powerful thing.

all filled up with things benign

He said he'd make me his famous bolognese pasta. He did. He added some lovely cocktail drinks for us with those cute little umbrella sticks in it. I shall never deny that drink I say. It was a sweet start to October. He fluffed up those big floor pillows so both of us squatted down to the level of his low-lying wooden table. The sound of police sirens and dubstep blasting in his stereo echoed all around his spacious sitting room. Our conversations are silly and random.

It's been a month already and I've never been able to last this long with somebody. And neither has he.

some kind of madness

Everything has been wonderful lately. Ever since I met Robbie (well, the first time, I was drunk, and the second time I couldn't remember him at all), things have been really lovely. He knows how to treat me well and even though we aren't officially together, I like what we have.

Muse- Madness

i left a love note

Hello. I'll be straight to the point here...I am not sorry for the hiatus. Ok, so I am a bit. But I can explain, my laptop has just been awful for the past month. It's slower than my imaginary pet snail.

I have my new and improved Macbook Pro now, so all this long break from the blogger world will be a thing of the past. I am so excited that I'm just tinkering away. I hear that once you go Mac, you never go back. We'll see then :)

I can finally Skype back home without having conversations cut off coz of stupid overheating. :/

you're hard to hug

Working full time has been mundane. I was glad I was out with friends to celebrate a birthday. My phone kept ringing though, this is why I should buy a separate phone for work and just shut it off.

It's May already and I felt like I haven't been reading enough. Hmmmm. I shall get my reading on!

we are young

I finally have something that almost looks like the real thing (Black Milk Clothing, why do you have to be in Australia?) Now all I need would be a legging version of that. Haha

sizzling like a snare

No one compares to you.

the redder the blood they drew, the better

I'm so glad about a number of things, I don't know where to start. Hmmm. I've officially finished the fast tracked version of my HND Social Services course so that's a relief. I've sent my visa application which I hope gets approved. It's Easter break. My family back home just did an 'intervention' on me for my own good. I've just got a pay raise. I've been running again after a long pause. I have my social life back. Well, that's all I can think of on the top of my head.

April has been starting out really well.

you're so fresh to death

It's been the longest time I've posted because a. I have to finish my whole course by the end of March (and I'm at the end of my wits here) and b. I didn't have any new stuff to put up here. But voila! All of that is about to change once college is out of the way.

So here's a modest self-portrait because I have to keep my creativity juices going. Do you like the Lennon glasses?

i never knew daylight could be so violent

"You are the silence in between what I thought and what I said,
You are the night time fear
You are the morning when it's clear"
-Florence + The Machines, No Light No Light

loud without vocal chords

"When we get home we're bigger strangers, than we've ever been before.

You sit in front of snowy television, suitcase on the floor"

-The Antlers' Bear

all the answers, honey

You come and go. But in that moment, I swear we were infinite.

i knew you wanted a reaction

Hey you, haha. well. nothing. :)
Thanks for making me smile. No really, stop it. Haha

i tip my hat to you

"Hello, my name is Mark. I play gentleman's games.

And I just slip through and creepin', on a night's parade"

-Love, Foster the People

visions so insane

Play with more shadows,
Tangled knots drive me mental,
Breathe in a corset.

yes, a haiku. for you.

i live my life in the setting sun

I get lost in the night. I'm so high I don't want to come down.

that you were fooling me

"For your precious love means more to me
Than any love could ever be
For when I wanted you I was so lonely and so blue
For that's what love will do"

she's ahead of her time

"And she'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleeding
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me"

shall i stay

be the cartoon heart

Hurricane Bawbag. 38mph of non-stop wind is scary.

I can hardly see with my hair whipping all over my face as well as the the cold air stinging my eyes. Made me wish I had goggles on. I was hoping for dear life that I don't get hit by a trash bin or worse, a trampoline.

I hope everyone stays safe.
