Home is Wherever I'm With you.


Okay, so yesterday I was aching to write a blog post, but I had a major headache, and I needed sleep. So luckily, I got some time to research things to write about. I’d like to start by saying, there are a few songs in my playlist, that are named something else, than what they play. You can tell I don’t listen to the songs in advance before posting them... So I will try to fix that ASAP. Speaking of songs, the title of this post is from my new favourite song called Home, by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. You can listen to it in the playlist. It has a Western feel, but for some reason I love it. Also, I really want to change the layout of my blog. It seems kind of bland right now. I wouldn’t mind designing my own, if I knew how. So it’ll be a premade.
Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Oh, Happy Halloween. I almost forgot for a second. Yeah, I wish I could go to a party or something, but I think I will just get to hand out candy. Yesterday at school, we got to dress up.  I went as a pirate-kinda. Some sort of maiden. Anyways, there was another girl who had the same costume, but me being mean, I told her she shouldn’t wear it. Obviously, that tells me that I should be more original. And I plan on being original next year. I am already going to come up with ideas. So there were a lot of costumes that I am please with at school. I love how people go all out. So I am going to tell you who did the best.
Group Costumes
1.       The Jabbawockeez. Best group costume ever.
2.       The Ghost Busters, I think they go to my school. I am not even sure they were the Ghost Busters... Oh well.
3.       It’s a tie between the Wonderland pair—Alice and the Mad-Hatter, and The two Links. Congratulations guys!
Single Costumes
1.       This is tough. I didn’t really get to see everyone’s costume. But I think this is the one. The Paper Bag Princess. Thankyou for being original, and not slutty. ;)
2.       WOLVERINE. Way to go all the way. This guy had the hair, the beard, the sharp bones, the apparel and a kid behind him, playing the theme song.
3.       Where’s Waldo, and Lady Gaga. You guys were great.
Honourable mentions: Luigi, The Rubik’s Cube, The Blair Waldorfs, The Joker, The Lolitas, Frodo, The Retro Glam, The Butterfly, The White and Nerdy Gangster... Wierd Al, is that you? The Penguin, The Witches, and the Pirates.
Less than honourable mentions: The “sexy” kitties, and the ones who bought their costumes from San Diego. Really, a school isn’t the place to wear “sexy costumes.” Sorry.

America’s Next Top Model


Ahhhh, this episode was so good. So the girls got to go to Hawaii! And their new house is gorgeous. Anyways the photoshoot was so cool. It was portraying how Hawaii is so diverse, and that there are a lot of interracial marriages. So the models were the “babies” of these biracial couples. Known as “happa/hoppa” in Hawaii. So Jenifer was representing Botswana and Polynesia. They turned all of the models brown! I have always wondered what other people would look like if they were a different colour. Anyways, this is her photo. The judges didn’t really like her pose. But she sold the necklace. Laura was Mexican and Greek. Her picture looks amazing, they put so much makeup on these girls, and she did not look like the blonde country girl in the picture. I love the golden head band thing—I forget what it’s called. Oh and before I go on, the outfits were not necessarily what the people wear today, it was just to show the culture. Erin, this girl shouldn’t be in the competition. She was Tibetan and Egyptian. Man, could you imagine how beautiful that kid would be. AHAH I am so for interracial marriages.  She had no clue about those cultures... so the picture looks good to the untrained eye. So Brittany the mathematician, she goes home in this episode, which sucks, cause they just got to Hawaii. Anywho, she was portraying East Indian, and Native American, ahaaa, my future kid. Yeah she had the most beautiful outfit to work with, but she didn’t bring it. So that is why she was sent home. SUNDAIII, I love her, she is representing the 5’3” girlsss, aha. She was portraying Moroccan and Russian. They said she only has the one pose. But I think it’s just what the judges chose. She gives many different poses, it is just that they pick the one where her head is facing on the angle. Awhhh but she looks like a child. See, this is why I wouldn’t make such a great model. I look small. Nicole was Malagasy and Japanese. She does so well in her pictures. This picture was so amazing. She really knew what she was doing. I got the pictures from the America's Next Top Model Facebook group. And you can view the rest of the images at the bottom of this post.

The Vampire Diaries
So I saw the Halloween episode, it was alright. They killed off Vicky. Yes! She was turned into a vampire, but then she got crazy, and tried to kill Elena. Her brother is so messed up though. And she asked Damon to get him to forget that she died. Earlier in the episode Elena starts to make Damon upset. I really wished he just killed her. Oh anyways, the witch girl is so cool. She is my favourite character, and that might be because she is the only person of colour on that show. Did anyone else notice that her grandma is actually Whitney from that old show? I forget what it’s called. Yeah, it’s getting a bit boring, but I think Damon is going to do something crazy in the next episode.
I am just not going to say anything else. I was supposed to put this up yesterday, but it was Halloween, and I wanted to do something cool, so I made some homemade gore, J It was actually easier than I thought it would be. So I just took some toilet paper, and some liquid craft glue, and made some scar-ish shapes, then I took the acrylic paint, and made a blood colour. And BAM, I was a wicked zombie. The only sad part was that I didn’t get too many people, and most of them were too young to know what was on my face. Well I hope everyone had a lovely Halloween, and now we back to school. Our society is way lazy.
