champagne from a paper cup

this post was meant to be sent on the day it happened though i did not have time to come around in posting it up.

happy birthday tyna my love, as she celebrated her life in this world of 17 years.

we went off to a luncheon at landmarks a place in sunnybank that serves yumcha food. it was lovely to share meals and chit chat amongs the table. we then proceeded to a pool place that had great music and atmosphere , though i do say that it was not my cup of tea as i do not like playing nor interacting in pool. then it was time to head off to the city were i found great jewelry bargains i could not resist and just had to buy as i am such an impluse buyer (mind you they were only $2 for a bunch)

Shoutout to tina and anna that are featured in the photos.

My clothing is a vintage marbled dye dress by harper, that i brought at a small boutique shop in god knows where for only $20! im addicted to its colour and the lightness of the dress.

fashion teacher: do you do art?

me: yes

fashion teacher: then you should be able to draw the garment well

me: err, i do more of collages than drawing cause im not good at drawing

fashion teacher: *gives a wierd face (probably thinking, you do art so why cant you draw)

This was after my teacher had looked through my fashion folio to criticise my so called amateur sketches of my wedding dress design. She even had the decency to lay out everyone elses drawings to compare how bad my one is too theres.

seriously where does my fashion teacher get off, stereotyping what art is. that my friends has brought me to this conclusion that society is so fixated on the fact that artists are all good at drawing. WRONG ! not all artists can draw well and definitely i cannot draw well. if art was all about drawing objects and potraits well then wouldnt our earth be a lot less interesting with nothing unusual to look at or no admiration for those who rebell against the notion of art! seriously, everyone needs to relax and stop being such perfectionists in this modern age cause not eveyrone can draw like bloody picasso and van gough.

turn of the screw

I have not posted in may yet so i must.

Recently a trend that has caught my eye is using the technique of shredding, ripping and tearing into fabric to create a daggy, drapped holed look. It's actually appealing to the eye and creates a new dynamic to a garment, especially if you have holes in your garment you can turn it into a new look. not bad righttt (pun total failure)

Cheap Monday: Is a brand that has really included this type of technique in their garments and especially to their singlets, i wouldnt actually buy them as they cost more then my months wages but i do wanna make them myself. Simple and effective for a birthday gift i'd say.

Rapping (also known as emceeing, MCing, spitting (bars), or just rhyming) refers to "spoken or chanted rhyming lyrics with a strong rhythmic accompaniment". The art form can be broken down into different components, as in the book How to Rap where it is separated into “content”, “flow” (rhythm and rhyme), and “delivery”. Rapping is distinct from spoken word poetry in that is it performed in time to the beat of the music.
and why am i giving people a definition of rapping? its cause rapping is a major component of music that people tend to over look and unappreciate the true qualitied skills rapping has to offer. must i say i am a huge fan of rap music and rappers for that matter. its all about the delivery of those words and the stage presence those words create when a rapper so called raps. some favourites has to be lil wayne, drake and lil crazed (im being biased cause his asian) maddest rappers out and very very distinct voices that draws you to them!!! check them out on youtube.
i want this forever - Drake feat. Lil wayne
Bedrock- Lil crazed feat a whole heap of others (very very talented !)

THIS IS IT PEOPLE : REALITY CHECK !

ever thought about what your putting into your mouth

when you eat at a fast food place,

well now you do.

walk down the aisle

well can i just say im the worst at updating blogs! seriously, its not like i dont have the time to blog but im just so forgetful and completely lazy. Though nothing exciting has happened on my holidays and my D.I.Y projects were complete failures i have manage to inspire and pick myself up and actually look for patterns to make my own clothes.
i wanna start off making some of my own shorts in different patterned cotton fabric, im sure its okay to have silk shorts so why not cotton right ? well if not then i really dont give a shit, and just make and wear them anyways cause i can.
Hopefully this week i get payed and be able to go to spotlight and by some fabrics i have in mind .
The truth is im a money saver and spending my own working money makes me cringe but now i shall put that aside and focus on living off my own money instead of the parents. and for once feel its okay to spend money without thinking of it as a waste or im doing something bad. seriously i have this close bond with my moeny that i jsut cant let it go, its a weird obssesive compulsive nature in me.

so stay tuned to my shorts and hopefully it works out ! andddd sad newssss: starting school tomorrow, so it means more stress coming my way and 10 weeks of living in hell. yayers to meeee.
