Aa

These days I've been seeing A LOT of those American Apparel Alphabet Tees, which can be found here:

There is just something appealing about that bold, Helvetica typeface. . . I think some letters look better than others. For example, I think the Jj, Ll and Ee are just not as visually pleasing as the Tt, Aa or Zz.
Maybe that's just me, what do you think?
When buying the shirt, how do people choose what letter they want? I know I would be standing in the store for a good fifteen minutes before I could choose between all twenty six options.
Maybe by name initial? Or just plain visual appeal?

These Tees are nice but I don't understand as to how they got so popular. Because of the name tag? It seems like anything American Apparel gets instant hype. First it was their unisex hoodies that are now owned by every single hipster out there, then the colour block jersey dresses or the swing skirts. I don't know how they do it.

Here are some pictures for those of you clueless as to what I'm talking about

Insomnia


Been catching up with my Kpop lately, and although this song isn't the most recent - I think it's the BOMB : )
Insomnia by Wheesung, check it outt.

At first I heard the original by Craig David

and I wasn't that into it, but then I saw the live for the Korean version, and all of a sudden I was really feeling it! Haha.
They have really similar voices, they should do a duet or something.

Also 2EN1's debut song has some pretty good beats
Fire - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Dmt2OxP0dw
I'm a CL fan; saw her performance on the yg family tour concert thing and I thought she was so good - distinct rapping.
Pretty sure they'll be as popular as Big Bang given the time.


Anywayss, redyed my hair yesterday with L'Oreal Colour Rays, the streaks were fading already -_-

I'll upload a better picture later.

GOODBYE FOR NOW

Alexander the Gorgeous


Okay so yesterday on whim I decided to watch Alexander via some asian streaming site.
And holy moly.
The video quality was horrible; it kept blurring, pausing, going out of sync.
I didn't really know what was going on: why Angelina Jolie hated the one eyed father so much, what exactly they were they fighting for all this time, and what the old narrator guy had to do with anything.
All I understood was: Colin Farrell and Jared Leto are the sexiest men alive.
Seriously.
Oh. My. Lord.

I listen to 30 Seconds to Mars, but I never knew Jared Leto was also an actor!  Although his acting did not really go past intense stares...which I enjoyed very much.
And Colin Farrell... well no explanation is needed.
 Ahhhhh <3>
Too bad he played a gay/bisexual character.
Well my bursts of fangirlism is now satisfied, so I'll be peacing out now.

GOODBYE FOR NOW

First Post? Yayers

So this is my very  first post on my very first blog!
I should get a medal or something.
Not really sure how things work around here, but how hard can it be to mess up?
Just write a few words, post a few pictures, and there you have it : )
But what words?  Should I talk about my current emotional, philosophical feelings?  Light funny anecdotes about what interesting things happened in my day?  Post long poems of passion and love?
Hmm.
Well.
Here it goes.

Decisions.
One decision has the power to change a whole future, and lately I've been faced with so many.
As of May 1, I received an offer of acceptance to Ryerson University for Fashion Communications.  Now, I worked super hard on my portfolio and actually skipped school with JH to make the trek to t-dot to hand it in, but I never really thought I would make it!
As soon as I walked onto the campus, I felt a desperate desire to go to Ryerson, and I said to myself - if I made it, I would go FO SHO!
I felt so excited, you wouldn't believe.
But now the time came, and before I had the time to react to the acceptance,
[REMOVED]
After I've thought for so long.


Not really the literary genius I was going for, but it will do for a first post.
Blaah.
My eyes are tired.

GOODBYE FOR NOW
