projection to reflection

I typed in Acne into my Google search bar and the first result that popped up was 'acne treatment and community'. Oh right, I forgot, Acne can be associated with something other than the Acne Atacoma. Tell me again why I don't live in Sweden? Oh right, I wasn't born there and my parents aren't Swedish (as simple as that, okay).

I seem to have a certain fascination with parallel sentence structure because it keeps recurring in my posts and Tweets. Uh. Yeah. Hm. Okay. I was just really looking for where they sold Acne in Toronto. I know Jonathan + Olivia carry a little bit of Acne but I doubt they have the Atacoma. Discouraging. Then, I decided I might settle for the 'imitation' in the form of Jeffrey Campbell for LF's Alexa but it's not available online yet.

Except that the Jeffrey Campbell 99 is not looking too bad either. Decisions, decisions, decisions. Except the only decision I should really be making is whether to study economics or accounting.

I need someone to break my shoulder and back muscles again... I'm so tense.

t-post

I was ecstatic to receive a package from the wonderful people at T-post Sweden : "Offbeat news + graphic T-shirt = T-post, the world's first wearable magazine...News story on the inside. Artist interpretation on the front."

I love the idea of T-post, it's a fresh and innovative way of getting a news story across while incorporating an individual's interpretation on the topic.

Esra Roise, a Norwegian illustrator, is featured on my issue of the T-post and is responsible for the design on the front of the t-shirt.

I am going to make this my prime week of productivity.

faces

Pulled out the Canadian pricelist pull-out from my Holiday 2009 Sephora catalogue to see what I would look like if I had Lisa Cant's perfectly structured doll face. He he he. But I am no Lisa Cant.

I was planning to get up at 8 am this morning and be super productive and finish my economics quiz due tonight but instead I hit my snooze button for two hours before getting up. Then, I proceeded to put on my vulgarest and loudest rap songs on to keep myself awake and now I have to get ready to go to work.

So, what have I done this morning other than spew out profane lyrics about bitches, hoes, and 'booty, booty, booty rockin' everywhere'? Zip. Zap. Zero. Ugh.

I wish exams didn't have to interrupt every single routine in my life. Little sleep and a lot of stress gives me night terror.

I'm excited to sleep more than three hours tonight. Those look like the Margiela hoof shoes.

@ LOVAS

Took time away from my deathly study routine to attend the LOVAS show with lovely Ash yesterday.

And the verdict? The LOVAS girl is overtly feminine and a tad too sweet for my taste. There wasn't anything I would love to wear on a regular basis but definitely many things I would love to wear if someone (God forbid) stuck me in a beachy, vacation town.

So. Tired. Two hours of sleep for a second day in a row. I think my lack of sleep is starting to creep up with me. I'm pretty sure if I close my eyes for more than 2 seconds today I'll be knocked out cold.

Anyhow, just wanted to say Hi! and do a little quickie update as to not neglect my little blog in times of exam terror.

The last asymmetrical-uni-breast-baring dress is a dream. If only I had a place to wear it where it would be appropriate. Scratch that, if only I could afford it.

Super day for dawncing to super tacky songs in the bright, early morning. I have to let it all out now before I get on the subway and have to make a hard effort to hold everything in (or resort to subtle bobbing of the head and tapping of fingers). Have a Thorough, Thirsting(?) Thursday!

Those are the only T-H adjectives I can think of right now -- SAD. Th-antastic, Th-abulous Thursday? Okay, Charmaine. Enough.
