Devendra and Natalie (plus puppy dogs) were ridiculously adorable
but prego Natalie Portman engaged to Black Swan choreographer, Benjamin Millepied, sits fine with me - a genetically blessed baby is on its way!

compliments from strangers
This lady at Target talked to me for a couple minutes about this and that and at the end of our conversation she says to me, “I like the way you speak and the way you carry yourself - you are a very nice, young lady” .

I GAINED 4 LBS IN MY BIG TOE .
My shipment had finally come in (after stalking the UPS guy the morning my package was supposed to arrive) and I (my feet) was ready to make sweet love to Jeffrey Campbell (in shoe form) . I slowly slipped my feet into these babies to the sound of angels singing, when the music dyed out as the zipper (in the back heel part of the shoe) wouldn’t budge to zip up . YES, THIS WAS REAL LIFE ....

Holiday Cheer
This morning I had my first cup of hot chocolate in years - in it were homemade peppermint marshmallows that I decided I needed to make (you can find the recipe for them here).
Brunch at my brother’s house was nice - I unwrapped O.P.I polishes from the Burlesque collection (Take The Stage and Let Me Entertain You) and from the Holiday 2010 collection (Plum Full of Cheer), Gossip Girl...

mymuffinneedsbuttering:
I’m not going to rant (today would be the best ranting days ever because absolutely everything that could go wrong went wrong, SO WRONG that I think if I wrote a screenplay based off today it would involve everyone laughing so hard that their insides would explode because my life is such a JOKE) but just so you get an idea (in case you didn’t): THIS IS HOW...

Semester of Suffering
I’ll post my documentary on the Michigan Smoking Ban’s effects on Dearborn Hookah Lounges in a little while, but first let me tell you how glad I am that class with Gilmore is over! I survived the semester with a B+ in the class, but somehow after all the tears and the social isolation that had to be done to complete the stressful assignments in this class (that turned out to fit in...

epiphany
Although my hair is damaged from the number of chemicals I’ve massaged into it over the years, and although I pack much booty (perhaps too much), and just because I can’t seem to bring myself to have artificial conversations with strangers doesn’t mean I should stress out and cry about it and convince myself that I’m an inadequate human being who no one likes .
I’m...

Dream Catcher
Last night I had ten dreams in one . What I can remember vividly is being eaten by maggots as I desperately tried to pull them off of me . According to a very unreliable source, maggots suggest “being used by self-serving people for their own personal benefit”. Great . I’m paranoid now .

JINGLE ON REPEAT
My last radio show of the semester was such a good time! I’m sorry for those of you who missed it! Nights like last night make my heart so happy! With the stress of final exams and portfolios, I’m glad I planned a night where I was legitimately worry free . I wish everyone who was there was pictured, but this is what was managed:
being the Spice Girls!

Jeffrey Campbell on my feets, please .
THESE . I wish these were mine . I’m going through my wishlist and purchasing all things fabulous as soon as I figure out how to cut my expenses to get more monies! I have a problem when it comes to shopping - I make the excuse that everything I buy is an investment . These shoes could mean a better life for me . The four and one half inch heels will make me taller - not 5’10” but 5’6.5”...

Black Swan was filmed so excellently! Darren Aronofsk did an excellent job at scaring the shit out of me yet making it so my eyes were wide open the entire time taking as much of Natalie Portman’s perfect gone disturbingly beautiful ways in (except when Winona Ryder went completely insane - I just couldn’t watch) . So different than what I had expected; exceeded my already high...

Campus Video Network Showcase
I submitted my short film, Lurkin’, to CVN and it was played tonight at their showcase . I stepped away from writing my papers for a little bit just in time to introduce my piece and witness a large group of people reacting to my movie (a group larger than my classroom of 25 students who didn’t have to be polite and laugh at parts that were obviously intended to be funny but might not...

So very PROUD of myself .
I have this nasty habit of freaking out when the tiniest thing goes wrong to the point where I shut down and there’s no coming back until the perfect verse of a random song starts to play or ice cream truck shows up .
Yesterday, I handled myself beautifully . Instead of freaking out when disgusting bits of ground beef magically appeared in my the stuffed cabbage soup I purchased from the...

WatchThis movie is the absolute greatest, too bad finals are getting into the way of some of my holiday traditions - LIKE WATCHING MEAN GIRLS . Haha, I can’t stop laughing where Gretchen knocks Jason out with the stereo and when the “army pants and flip flops” girl makes this weird face as she starts to sing along with Cady . This movie will never stop being funny . What’s your...

I sang karaoke tonight
not the “so bad it’s good” kind like karaoke should be, but the kind where it was so bad that it was awful . Everyone expected me to sing Lady Gaga and I rebelled - I know my Gaga .. I should have done my best Gaga, I DO THE BEST GAGA . OH MY LIFE .

maybe I'm mean, but I'm probably just right ....
Last night was a very emotional and intense night for me . I was to turn in an original screenplay at 6:10 p.m. to be read out loud to the class with the help of actor Richard Fitzpatrick (The Boondock Saints: All Saints Day, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen). I panicked for weeks, my ideas were just not good enough . I ended up stirring something up the night before and finished it one half...
