anthem du jour

interesting, i don't remember changing the blog colours...anyway, here is the anthem of the day. i know it's no beatz and bleepz but i have been listening to it on repeat, aside from an hour long hilary duff drive around party in my friend's car at 4 this afternoon. i give you 'le retour' by yann tiersen:

unofficial australia appreciation day

i have been watching australia's next top model nonstop over the last week and a half. it is so good i can't even describe...and here i thought cycle five was amazing! turns out the previous seasons are even better. i've been working my way backwards and am currently to the final four of cycle three. why is australia's next top model so much better than america's next top model? first of all, they all LOOK like they could actually be models, unlike our american mall rats. second of all, they are mad bitchy. third, they have crazy accents and weirdo slang. fourth, there is no tyra. fifth, they actually treat it like a serious competition...the ones who win actually do go on to have intense modelling careers, especially alice from cycle three...she did something like 68 runway shows in just one year after she won the competition. CRAZY.


anyway, after all this aussie reality tv, i got it in my head that tim tams (australia's favourite cookie) were in order. hence i sent myself on a mission to go find them, and was pleasantly surprised to see that world market has them in stock. not only did i pick up two packages of those (chocolate and caramel varieties...) but i also grabbed a couple curly wurlys, aka the best candy ever ever ever.








after that sugar binge, hopefully i'll have enough energy to embark on my workload which is roughly the size of mount everest. either way, i'll still be taking breaks to watch more austnm, which you can also enjoy right here beginning with ep. 1 of cycle 3!!! so exciting!!!

this is amazing

ever wonder what would happen if pixels took over the world retro video game style? well, the answer is apparently this and it is awesome:

beatz and bleepz: the nogoodverybadweekend edition

okay i'm being totally dramatic here, but i'm a little bummed that my mom has picked today to come visit me at school. don't get me wrong, i appreciate the whole dinnershoppingbonding thing, but i also really value my weekends. and this kind of threw a wrench into me going back to dc and/or partying (so college!). ughhhh. but don't worry, this minor setback won't keep me from the beatz. pour vous (sorry i'm not sorry it's all remixes this week...):

we're not french(haezer rmx)-haezer
dull life (professor purple rmx)-yeah yeah yeahs
l.e.s. artistes (death to the throne rmx)-santigold (don't be fooled by the intro...)

anthem du jour

in a word...amazing.

anthem du jour

well it's official, it has become too hot for my liking. not that it takes a lot...much like polar bears i do not thrive well in the heat. hence i need to migrate someplace that's slightly cooler. and/or stay put and listen to 'feel it all around' by washed out while i melt into the couch. (it really is the soundtrack to melting.) pour vous:

every single piece from headhoods:


WANTWANTWANTWANTWANT

if you've met me, you probably realize that i lovelovelove tights. and les queues de sardines creators, while they've not met me, have effectively predicted my achilles heel, here. they've captured my heart, i'm swooning. here is what they have and what i wantwantwantwantwan right nownownownownow:





melinda josie + the cats

i have a weird relationship with cats. the only way i can think to accurately describe my aversion is to describe my relationship with watermelon. while i HATE actual watermelon, and avoid it at all costs during picnics/bbqs/otherfunctionswherethereiswatermelon, i LOVE artificial watermelon flavour in things like bubblegum. so where am i going with this? basically i hate real cats and enjoy artificial depictions of them in things like photos/drawings/mediumswheretheycan'tclawyoureyesout. however, melinda josie's depictions of cats makes me (almost) want to end my lifelong feud with felines. i repeat, almost.


french pop

because it's good, and because i can...
