Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

-Alan Watts

You're cold, and suffering. You think I'm the one with the problems, but you're covered head to toe with issues. You're weak.

Craft sale

I just had a superb day. The wonderful christmas craft sale that comes once a year took place this weekend. I had so much fun there and spend nearly every last penny in my wallet. A few of my favorite things which i purchased were soy wax candles. The scents i bought were Monkey Farts which smells citrus-y, Lick Me All Over which is fruity, and Blackberry tea which smells just like its name. I also purchsed my favorite Strawberry cider champagne [yummy] and wonderfully scented soaps.

More blogging tomorrow perhaps when I am less tired

Ideas:

Marie

Meet the frightening character I met in my art class, my psychotic art teacher told me to throw her away, instead I kidnapped her. Also, she scare the bloody hell out of me, I might have to give her a makeover

Joy

I am extremely pleased with myself this afternoon. Why you ask? Well because this afternoon i made a trip to Chapters to pick up a book for my brothers christmas present, while i was there i stumbled upon a gigantic Edgar Allen Poe short story/poetry book on sale for $13. Im still amazed at this deal considering the book is huge and filled with wonderful stories. I also purchased a smaller book with a few of his short stories because well i can't exactly carry a giant book to school each day.

Also, it snowed today. It looks very pretty but it is also very very very cold [and wet].

Macbeth & 1984

Currently Reading :

Macbeth -Shakespeare

My English class is currently reading Macbeth, we started it yesterday and I am nearly finished. I heard a lot of bad things about Macbeth so I was not sure if I would like it, surprisingly I am madly in love with it. Especially Lady Macbeth who is by far my favorite character thus far.

Would love to hear some opinions on the book. Love it? Hate it? Loath it? Let me know.

1984 -George Orwell

I've only just started it but so far i am absolutely terrified and extremely in awe of the world George Orwell has created in this book. Not much else to say considering I am only two chapter's in. I shall keep you posted on my thoughts of this odd and intriguing read.

Holiday

Christmas is the most beautiful thing. I could not ask for more in my life right now than snow, christmas trees, bright lights, peppermint candy canes, & cold nights.

"In the bleak midwinter Frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter, Long ago."

Christina Rossetti A Christmas Carol

English poet (1830 - 1894)

Hello Little Birdy

"I know why the caged bird sings."
Maya Angelou [Quoting a lyric by Paul Laurence Dunbar]

Be Mine

Hey there lovely thing please oh please let me give you ring Promise you'll be mine and i'll take you anywhere you please, to the top of the highest mountain or to a quiet cottage where no one will find us Be mine beautiful and i'll be yours Watch me while i watch you, dance with me to an old tune in a grave yard I'll buy you pretty things and give you anything you ever wanted Bows and ribbons, silk dresses and ruby's Just promise you'll be mine

Quotation

I adore simple pleasures. They are the last refuge of the complex.

Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray, 1891
