YOYOYO.
Have you guys seen Black Swan yet? El_Scootro and I saw it last night. It was so atmospheric, so creepy in a way that's hard to describe. It's like all these little things that build and build into this bezerk tension. I'm not typically a Natalie Portman fan at all, but I thought she delivered a seriously fantastic performance. And the costumes.....ahhh! Can't really go wrong when the Mulleavy sisters are involved. Especially the black swan costume with that tribal looking makeup- straight EVIL in the best way possible! I thought the "twist" was a little transparent, but having desperately wanted to be a ballerina as a child, I had to love it overall. I had a music box, a lot like the one in the movie, that had a little Swan Queen ballerina twirling around to "The Swan's Theme". (kind of a creepy idol for little girls, don't you think? True love is the only thing that will ever fulfill you and you should probably kill yourself if it doesn't work out! I guess that fairytales for you though, and why I love-hate them.) And you best believe that when we hatched chicks in 3rd grade, I named mine, which was black, Odile, after the black swan. Buuut unfortunately, my Balanchine dreams never came to fruition when as I got older it became apparent that I am completely lacking in coordination, grace, and probably above all, discipline.
Wahh wahhh!
After the movie, we decided to stay up to see the eclipse. I'm really glad we did- it was just so right after seeing that ultra creepy movie. The neighborhood where I live is basically on top of a cliff above the city, and is capped off by this massive catholic church. I've posted pictures of it before:

Well, the bloody moon was hovering right above the church, and the clouds kept streaming past, covering and then uncovering it. At 3:15am it was eerily quiet, and so wintery. It was spooky as fuck.


That's the best picture I could get with my phone. Haha. Those with better cameras than the iphone's did a much better job:

Annnnyway. I did the red thing. It doesn't really show up much in pictures:

But I assure you, it is much redder than it once was. I like it a lot.
Favorite Christmas jams:
This is baby me:

Hehehehe
Merry Christmas!
