Crazy busy time right now as I'm struggling to finish my MA research paper. But I procrastinate FAR too much, it's really sad. It's a habit that'll never die it seems. In any case, I need to learn how to do my makeup better. Below is the lovely supermodel Coco Rochas and her bf as taken from her blog http://ohsococo.blogspot.com. I want this to be my 2009 holiday makeup! Even though I'm not going to any parties cause my paper keeps me enslaved lol.
 
One thing I'll say about blogspot is that I do love uploading pics right on their site instead of going to photobucket, uploading it there, posting it here, etc. Sigh, can't have everything I guess.
Wow it's 4:30 pm and I just wasted a whole day doing nothing!
Also, RIP Korean model Daul Kim.

I've been listening to a lot of trance/house/euro stuff lately ever since I got back from Shanghai. I used to hate that stuff and thought it all sounded the same. I thought it was just music for lame ass ravers high off ecstacy. But that was before I knew there was such a thing as GOOD dance music lol. The stuff we get in Canada just DOES NOT compare. In China, I heard so much really good house music. Now I'm just addicted. If anything, it's great workout music!!
This kid's only 18..a French kid based in Shanghai:
And I discovered this thanks to Mia Michaels:
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh I just wanna dance!!! |

Wow, it's been a while since I last updated. Inevitably, Facebook (and grad school) replaced LJ and I, bah bah-ing like the herd of sheep that migrated to FB, also followed. Since the last entry, a lot has happened and yet, reflecting back on it, nothing has at the same time. The minutae of your life seems so much more urgent and fascinating while you live them, second by second, then when it's all over and look back on them with a sigh, either wistful or shameful. This is definitely not the time to re-start LJ as I'm in the midst of thesis hell but the lure of writing just for the sake of writing pulled me in again. Nobody has to approve this. I am not writing for someone.
I guess the biggest piece of news is that I've upped and left the "city" in which I lived in for far too long and loathed far too much. I am in the city I've dreamed of for so long and yes, it feels good. It feels damn good. What can I say, I'm a city girl. Born in one of the biggest cities in the world, it's where I feel the liveliest. It's the unending train of paradoxes which greet me at every turn; it's the intrigue of unpredictability; it's the mystery of everyday strangers but most of all, it's the indulgence in being anonymous. Others are oblivious and blase towards you except for those fleeting moments of eye contact and your neighbours don't know your name.
I adore all of that. I adore being nameless, faceless, lost amongst other nameless and faceless-es. It puts me at ease and I'm calm amidst this chaos of big city sirens, people talking, laughing, crying, spitting, yelling. It's an adventure, everyday.
