oh, my insides

I may just die AM DYING am done dying of laughter.

Harry Potter the Musical

It is dead serious.

[ETA: ROLLING DRACO! Oh. It hurts, it hurts, I can't laugh anymore.]

[ETA: Quirrel/Voldy!]

[ETA: Remember, a Portkey may be a harmless object, like a football, or a dolphin.]

[ETA: The internet tells me it was performed at UMich. Is there anything UMich can't do? Produce Andy Mientus, produce Harry Potter in musical form...]

those you've known and lost still walk behind you

Shorts and heels? I think I may have broken my own rule.

Above, t-shirt: Hanes. Sweater: mother's. Bag: secondhand, thrifted. Jeans: Old Navy + DIY, mother's. Tights: generic. Shoes: delias.

Wore this to eat the best chicken feet I have EVAR had.

Have two awkward and minimally revealing pictures of my earrings:

P. S. Done with Goblet of Fire and finally starting East of Eden full force. Also, the impromptu shopping trip today was insanely successful.

i'm slightly blinding(ly beautiful)

This is why I should smile in my pictures.

Above, sweater: Old Navy, mother's. Fake pashmina: New York street vendor. T-shirt: Forever21, gift. Pants: GAP, gift. Bag: secondhand, thrifted. Shoes: Harajuku Lovers.

I'm pretty sure this isn't apparent to anyone else, but this is one of my favorite color schemes. I mean royal blue and hot pink. As I have worn before. Such as for Senior Boat. Which is apparent to no one because I went for a hot pink lip, which nobody ever notices anyway.

(Yes, I do Facebook stalk myself and crop unnecessary people out of pictures of me.)

(...I'm looking at my current pictures at the top and this one from senior year here, and trying to figure out if these are the same people.

...Yes, yes they are. Apparently, a desexualizing haircut makes very little difference in what I think of my dazzlingly good looks. You know, dazzling, because I am a vampire.)

lately

My new double-pointed knitting needles are blue. Why do they come in packs of five? Also my new yarn is green (what a surprise). Also I suspect I am following these knitting instructions incorrectly because it is getting really really difficult to knit.

Also, I can start figuring out how to string these together without vowels and say important tourist phrases like "Where is the bathroom?" and "Your eyes are like the stars, can I buy you a drink?" and "My devotion is unalterable, my flaxen-haired Adonis" and "Do you have the missing half of this golden amulet?"

Aaaaand I blame this on it being my womanly time, because obviously my body is trying to turn me into a fire-breathing dragon, but I can't stop eating:

dude that's scary

My brother didn't inherit the stunning good looks (I got all of them, I am so fortunate), so he's afraid of having his picture taken. Also, it steals his soul.

Actually, we are attempting to make a mask of this fellow because my brother is a geek going to Anime Expo:

And we have two attempts going at once in case one messes up. This one is paper matchy (because I don't want to put diacritic marks on papier mache) and gesso, and we don't really know how this is going to turn out because it's lumpy and still drying:

Wait, the picture must be upside-down because we put the cracked eye hole on the correct side... Anyway, here's the other one, which really scares me because it reminds me of Hannibal Lecter. It's the plastic mask with some paper matchy on it:

obeisance

For your sake, I have endured the ordeal of applying eye makeup, removing it, and then having to redo my moisturizer. You may lay your gifts at my feet and prostrate yourself if you wish.

My hair looks gross here. Like an emo boy:

Anyway, I just realized the Bare Escentuals lipliner I have must be a really old one that's been discontinued or something. The color is mauve. Says the packaging.

Here is my really mess-ay liplined eyes with no mascara and lip balm slathered on my eyelids and some of my bangs in the way and a contact definitely floating:

And how it looks at a slight distance:

Aaaand another pose to emphasize my druggie eyes, which makes my hair look like an epic wave:

It may be a bad sign that I enjoy looking slightly ill.

eleemosynary

...One of my favorite words, from a play that I am confident would be one of my favorites if I had ever read the whole thing. (Priceless: When Extremely Scandinavian Cara, who played spelling genius Echo, performed at Ohlone and accidentally misspelled some five-letter word.)

Erm, I may be slightly fixated on depictions of parent-child relationships.
