I just found this gorgeous community:
0ktavia . It was spotlighted on the main page and I clicked it. A moment made to happen, I know. It's alot like
blackcigarette , really. (another of my loves <3) They both stem from the idea of being inspired in all medias and having everything be beautiful. Not beautiful in a conventional way, but finding beauty in normal things. One of the posts, this girl was talking about bands she liked so I looked one up, called Escape. They're psychedelic (which is why I looked em up), so hopefully I can get a hold of some of their stuff soon. They sound good by their single. Anyways, check out that community. ^^
Today is a Bob Dylan day. It really is. So, I'm listening to him right now. I honestly thought today was going to be a Queen day because I listened to them last night (and Bowie, lol). I even wore my Brian May tribute shirt! (angel winged sleeves, wh00t) Btw, today was fancy day in my friend's and my scheme of the week in order to make life more interesting at this dull point in the quarter, so I wore that Brian May shirt with a black tube dress and pink belt over it. It's Bob Dylan day because I have doodled on my Econ notes "you'd better pawn it babe" in 3-d letters, along with the fact that I was practically inhaling "Like a Rolling Stone" when it was on the radio after school/before tennis today. I love doing that, when you're so deep into the music that it feels like every time you breathe in, you're filling your lungs with the movement of the song.
I need to look up contemporary music. I go through spurts of this. I feel so guilty, but all this classic rock is just a goldmine of music excellence. Note to self: write down every band you hear mentioned as good and look them up on last.fm/youtube later. Ok, that's my new project.
Something about endorphins rushing to my brain, man... Our AP Euro History tonight was a fascinating read. It was all about the rise and fall of European powers after Louis XIV. You know, the first Prime Minister in the UK, Russia growing to an empire with Peter the Great, and the rise of Prussia and the Hohenzollerns...*sigh* It really is good stuff, that. It makes up for the insane workload, at least.
Oh, I know why I'm in a good mood. It's almost the late night, plus it's a full moon, and I found that new, inspiring comm. Yeah, certainly a good mood. Seriously, though, I love the moon. I think if I ever have a daughter, I'll consider something based on "Luna". Lunelle or something. The moon, you aren't inconstant, I'll swear by you...stupid Juliet, what does she know? She dies, anyways. Me, I'll live, thank-you-very-much.
Don't you love when you think of a random line/phrase/quote/whatever just randomly during the day? Today I thought of "No tears, just poems". And it's so applicable to me. A week or so ago, I thought of a good line for a rather sarcastic poem about my dear country. "Red pimples, white skin, blue eyes, gold hair. Gold hair? Oh yes, to match the green fingers." I'd mess with it if I actually got to writing the poem, but I like the concept.
I painted my toenails silver. ^^ I swear I started this whole silver polish thing before the craze. It's all those light shows I go to, see. I help out and use muh nails to reflect all the colored lasers. :P Seriously, though, light show? Invite me.
I need to start on a new art project that I can finish within a week or so for art class. Our teacher suggested the theme of 'beauty', but we don't need to follow it. I was sort of thinking of making my own Fillmore poster. I just don't know what band I'd do it for. I could gear it towards "beauty" by putting a chick's face in there and writing stuff about beauty around it, or make up some band, or use the band names that actually played there (Teh Floyd, yes yes? Oh ya, and the Ded. They might've played thar a few times lol). Or I could take a page out of a fashion magazine, cut out the models, then do something like scribbles where they were or make it 3-d popping out something messy like or a demon or something...cuz I'm sure they want me to say that beauty is on the inside and crap like that. (I say crap because if there's beauty on the inside, it'll come out somehow. Either by your expression or how you walk or if you choose to adorn yourself or not, you know?) Or maybe I'll just do a 3-d paper model of the model jumping out of the paper. I dunno. So, it's the fillmore poster or the cut out magazine page. What do you think I should do?
Anyways world, <3
