All I have to say is that I avoided seeing Deathly Hallows until last weekend out of cynicism, and wow. Wow was I wrong about it. That was an awesome, awesome movie, and it reminded me of why I loved Harry Potter in the first place. So much nostalgia. Also, Emma Watson's eyebrows were normal and Daniel Radcliffe's mouth was only a rectangle of ( Read more... )

I felt like a kid at a rock concert (albeit a super-quiet one) seeing all this art that I've seen at least twice before but now actually know the stories behind instead of just, "Uh, fluorescent light on the floor, why the hell is that in a museum." Rothko especially is just so, so different in real life as opposed to this pixelated little digital ( Read more... )

When in the history of the world have you needed to see the actual object emitting light in a painting in order to understand that sometimes light comes from somewhere off the picture plane? "I'm so confused! There's this ~light~ coming from somewhere, but unless I see the actual lamp creating this mystical stuff I will stand here and just not ( Read more... )

All day I was bothered by the feeling that my dream last night was incredibly important, and that Mark Zuckerberg was in it.

I have this notion that if there was some way to still own my Macbook Pro and yet never use it for anything but entirely necessary things then that would be... good. Or not, I don't know.

Haven't really gotten into False Priest, as it took out what I liked from Skeletal Lamping, which was the ADDness and the dissonance, and replaced it with ~smooth production~, and also the lyrics kinda set my teeth on edge (see "Sex Karma" and "Hydra Fancies" and "Famine Affair") and make me wonder about Kevin Barnes's personal life in a sometimes ( Read more... )

It's weird how a person can seem so perfect for you on paper.

Last night I had the only nightmare I can remember that I awoke from with an actual scream. It was weird and high-pitched, and thinking back on it I probably sounded hilarious. Even the dream itself is semi-hilarious now; it was about my mom. She was crawling around on the floor, drunk, and then before I woke up she was about to rip my throat open ( Read more... )

Mainly I like Kurt. Never Been Kissed was the first episode I watched, and despite being determined to hate the show, I cried twice.

Here, have an awesome fanvid by the ridiculously talented person who did the Mylar "Goes Around" and the Fall Out Boy "Chasing Arizona" vid. (Oh god don't remind me of that one, gives me sadpangs.)

So I've been having a huge amount of difficulty with Art In General. I never sketch anymore, I get almost no pleasure from painting anything I've painted in school so far, etc. I was beginning to worry that the actual love of expressing myself was just gone, forever. BUT I HAD A HUNCH, and that hunch involved the mitigating factor of stress, the ( Read more... )
