i wish for...

so i had another fun-filled day or nothingness...haha. ah well i did sort out alot more of my room. and found more stuff to get rid of and sell. :) but other than that i have just watched movies, while cleaning and sorting out.
so i quick run down of me at the moment...
Watching... big brother, twilight, yes man, how to be.
Listening... she and him and coconut records.
Reading... new moon again.
Drinking... cranberry and something else juice.
Wanting... to meet zachary quinto.
i also really want to see 500 Days of Summer..but knowing my cinema we wont get it, or will get it in the end...but a few months down the line! it looks wonderful. i love the tag line; this is not a love story. its a story about love.
i watched panic room last night. and man, kristen stewart is so amazing in that movie too. i am quite a big fan of hers. i found EW shoot from Sundance. i always love the Sundance photos. the first picture was made on The card catalog generator!. and the sundance portraits can be found at; www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20253493_1,00.html

08.55..and still waiting

i had a wonderful and fun birthday. i woke up very early on my birthday morning at like 7!!..and i was surprised, still waking up early like i am a little kid..he he. crazy stuff. while i waited for my flatmates to wake up i opened presents from my parents (that they had given to me to take back to uni) and yay i got a Polaroid camera!! so early morning i was taking lots of pictures.once i heard that everyone was up i when into our living room/kitchen and there was an amazing banner of my name with lots of drawings of Seth rogen (i heart him). And i also had a Dora balloon!! :) i opened presents from my housemates and i got a watchmen figure, twilight director. book, a twilight keyring and a beautiful parrot pin. then we went out for ice cream. and two of my friends needed to give me my birthday present...and it was A GOLDFISH!!! hahaha..it was mega weird walking to the pet shop..i was wondering what the hell was going on, and then i picked out the coolest fish, i think i have called him Sheldon. i went out for dinner with my close friends who i love so much. and it was so yummy. and we all wore party hats. we also went out for drinks. :)i had some lovely cakes on my birthday too. :) the little purple hippo cake is from my friend Claire..its so cool!! the hippo is a plastic ring!!! and a giant chocolate cake from my flatmates.
and so my birthday is over for another year. onwards and upwards, lots and lots of work to be doing. my desk in the studio is so messy and full of bits and pieces. i finally got my lovely friend Kay to draw me an amazing piece of work, that will be hanging on my wall very very soon. i had to keep asking her all day long, but she finally drew me a picture. and isn't it amazing??!?!?! check her cool blog out! secret ginger

gold teeth and a curse for this town...

hello!! the picture above is a small drawing my friend did of me very very quickly on scrap paper..i found it rather funny, so it made it on here :)
ah i am still trying to read my very old books about birds and animals for my work..ahhh i just cannot be bother to do reading at the moment...and i hate saying that.
oh wonderful news. in my city at the cinema you can choose a film that you want to play and you can dedicate it to anyone, but you have to pay £150 but you get 30 free tickets, and the public can go as well as they just have to pay for their ticket. you can pick any film, and it gets mentioned in the monthly guide/times for the film on at the cinema. however i feel that it is very expensive, but its a beautiful idea. when i read that people have dedicated certain films for peoples birthday, or just because they wanted too, it melts my heart. when i was in the cinema the other day i looked at the movies for the month that people had paid for, and what did i see, my favourite movie 'Garden State'....my month dropped open. if i could have picked any movie to be played it would have been this one. i never got to see this movie in the cinema. so i am going to go see it. i am very much looking forward to it. even though i have the DVD, i still feel the need to go see it. it will also be cool to see the people that it was put on for. and in this case the movie is: To celebrate Steph's 40th. :D
i was tagged by the beautiful lina to do the show me whats in your bag tag!! how cool! i sorted my bag out the day before, and it would have been more interesting but its not now! :)i now tag... Lottie, The Psychedelic Schoolgirl, Jane and Looking glass girl. enjoy!!!! :D

looking through boxes and boxes

lots and lots of cups of tea. tea in very old random cups. odd plates, and pretty patterns. i have always wanted to live back in the 60's and as soon as i walked through the tea room, i felt it.
also i went to the cattle market and found some wonderful items! the thing is with the cattle market, you kinda just have to look through lots and lots of random boxes full of different things, its all about the rummaging!!! :D i wanted to look for different objects to help me with my work, and i found some crackers. i found a small folder of a few birth certificates, and a couple of really old photos. i found an amazing telephone, which DOES WORK. i love it so much, and want it in my house forever! :) and other really odd bits and pieces.
as well as going to the cattle market. i went to an old bookshop that i had visited a couple of years ago. the smell is amazing. there is nothing better than the smell of piles and piles of old books. the books are stacked wall to wall, book to book. i found a few books about birds and other animals to help me with my uni work. i look forward to reading them!

let the bird sing

ah it has been an odd few days. lots and lots of snow!! waking up and seeing the streets covered in snow is pretty cool. but however, no more snow pictures! :)
i went to the cinema a few times this week, i saw my bloody v in 3d, which was pretty cool! oh and i did see Milk, which i thought was so beautiful and moving.
other than seeing movies, i have been watching buffy. i used to watch it years ago, and i really felt like watching it recently...and so i am. i feel all young again! i love amber benson (tara) so much, i might do some research and see if she is in anything recent. oh i found my old bird cage necklace in a drawer yesterday!! its so cool, i forgot about it! its great to re-find things you forgot you had. :)
