My roommate's mom came over this weekend to help her with organizing her room and seeing them re-arrange her bedroom inspired me to rework what I had into something more suitable and fit for creative writing. An inspiring setting is really important to get the imagination going.
So lo and behold, here is my new writing station:
I love the space so much! It sucks I didn't take a before pic but just imagine a 27 inch 90's tube tv sitting on the corner of the table. Not much room left to write. Clutter-free-imagination-station!
bEARTHday - a special time of year dedicated to the celebration of Earth & all its Glory and of course, me! Yes, it's my birthday today! It's a very climatic year for me since it will be my last in my mid-twenties. After that i'll be 27 - at which point I will start saying I am in my late twenties. That part scares me. Dramatically. I still feel like i'm 18, no kidding!
I didn't know what to write about today and was just about ready to give up on today's blog post when I saw a preview for the Hunger Games on TV. My brain kinda automatically flipped through my catalogue of memories and the image of the parody book The Hunger Pains came into view.
I saw the book a few months ago at the University of Ottawa's bookstore and the cover being so similar with the original, I didn't notice the differences at first. So I picked up the book and when I read the back, I started laughing. For Katniss' name in the parody is Kantkiss Neverclean. Aha, right?
I didn't buy the book, mainly because it had the word "Harvard" on it and we all know how pretentious that lot can be, and the story seemed very similar to that of the The Hunger Games except with funny name changes (Pita Malarkey) and juvenile fart jokes. So I passed.
When I finished the third book of the Hunger Games series, I was dying to read something - anything - related to the cruel world of Panem. The movie has been released in theatres though and I will be going to see it Friday with my friend, we want to avoid the massive crowds.
Waiting a week to see the movie is a real pain. So anxious. Movie review to come the following Monday.
For centuries upon centuries, ants have been on a mission. I'm sure you know what I am talking about. Before Yogi Bear ever attempted to snatch picnic baskets, ants had claimed that woven treasure as their own.
And on April 19th, the ants will come and take Picnik away.
If you've never had the chance to use this awesome photo-altering website, please hurry; there is only one month left before the basket closes and moves to a more defined yet limited Google+.
All of the features have been unlocked, which means you can do anything with your pictures for FREE. As in you don't have to pay for the membership to do shit like this:
I used celebrities here to show what you can achieve with the website, but you can use Picnik for your own photos. And there is a lot of features you can use to upgrade or downgrade your pics. Have fun and go explore the picnik basket!
Who didn't like to stay home on the couch on Sundays to watch such sad fares as these?:
Remember when Disney movies were good and had a deep-seeded message of love and respect? Also remember how much they loved to incorporate melancholic sequences like those ones? Oh they would make me fall asleep in an instant!
Take it easy today; kick-back and enjoy a good ole' Disney flick!
