Christmas Wishes

tresspasserswilliam — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 02:37:15 +0000

I think I have a love/hate relationship with Christmas shopping. What turned into a day of professed selflessness in the Christmas shopping department turned into me buying two winter jackets for myself. Le sigh. But I did make good progress on my list. Anyway, here are some of the things I on my xmas wishlist

Kiki de Montparnasse Muse Corselette Bra

Slow and Steady Wins the Race Cream Ballet Flats

Opium Den Scented Candle

Savage Grace

I finally got to watch Savage Grace. It was strangely disturbing yet breathtakingly beautiful. Julianne Moore is amazing, and Eddie Redmayne, who has modeled for Burberry, has to be the most beautiful human being I’ve ever seen. It’s actually a true story, which blows my mind.

Christmas soon. I think I will try to bake some goodies to get me through the cold weather, like these vanilla roasted pears from Smitten Kitchen.

Pigeons are evil

The popularity of animated films has made it so that for a while, all the cartoons that were being churned out were animations. Most recently though, Disney is paying a tribute to hand drawn cartoon with the Princess and the Frog, which to be honest, I don’t find myself at all excited about. This has made me realize one thing, and that is that animations tend to have a more subtle and modern, almost dorky but sophisticated (= nerdy) sense of humor, whereas hand drawn cartoons are looney and the jokes are either a hit or miss. Is that true? Do you guys prefer animations or classic hand drawn cartoons? Either way, check out this short Martell production. It’s cute.

Super Mario Forever

When I lived in Singapore and took Singapore Airline flights for all of my travels, I used to kill time in the air by playing Super Mario until my thumb became sore and swollen. Best game ever. Play on your browser (Flash supported) here.

There’s me sailing pass the pole and exiting level 1 gloriously with all 5 lives.

Happy Holidays!

I know, I know, it’s been awhile. Life has been crazy, I’m just looking forward to getting past finals and finally going home for the holidays. I want a hot bath, some spiced cider, and a good book or some good company, not necessarily all together though. That’s all I’m asking for for Christmas this year! Anyway, here are some images circulating my wallpaper folder recently, I forget where they came from.

I’ll be honest, this that I’m about to share is really not up to par with the rest of the posts, but this is hilarious and I have no time these few weeks… so here goes, MrChiCity

“N**** made a pizza. HAHA, well I was hungry…”
“Omg, ChiCity, like um, do you have anything to drink? And then I’m like, yeahh, BECKY, I got Snapples…”
“She too good for the cherry coke, so she drinks the i… right right right, okay”

SO FUNNY! And just as a side note, I’ll agree with him, this is keeping your place female friendly, boys.

peace, Noche

Giving Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving! Hope yall are going to stuff your faces, I know I am.
Anyway, I have this horrible feeling that I’m going to cry when we go around the table and say what we are thankful for, so I am going to try to get it out of my system now to avoid embarrassment later.

This year I am thankful for:

1. The wonderful and inspiring people I have met and gotten to know, and for the ones already in my life.

2. All the mistakes I have made, stupid or not stupid. From them I have learned to be a better and smarter person.

3. My boyfriend. I love him.

4. My other boyfriend, architecture. We fight all the time and sometimes he makes me want to rip out my hair. But since he has been in my life I have grown exponentially and there is no way I could imagine life without him in it.

5. Finally, I am super super thankful for all the things I don’t have to worry about: food, clothing, education, etc. I am thankful for my happiness and all the lessons I have learned, all the experiences I have had, and all the beautiful things I’ve seen.

love, ali
