fun fact #326

so here's a fun fact: maggots don't gross me out.

huh. who knew.

uh...

i've never understood this:

person: "i had such a great time at that party! it was so much fun!!!" *pause* "i don't remember a thing. i was so drunk. but it was fun!"

me: *sigh* -.- "okay."


....how do you know you had fun...?

obsession.

ah, yes. my obsessions. when i fall in love with something, i fall in deep. it doesn't happen too often.

i've been madly in love with David Bowie since i was 10 years old. and by "madly in love" i mean i just love the man's music and his haunting voice. i discovered David Bowie when i was four when my mom rented the film Labyrinth for me to watch. i instantly became obsessed with the movie for its eerie fairy tale allure, and for the handsome goblin king. it wasn't until i was 10 when i went to a music store (back when they sold both cds and cassette tapes) that i realized that this Bowie gentleman had many, many records out. I purchased a copy of Outside, and it was then that i realized that i loved this brit and his music, and forever would. i was hooked.

my latest obsessions include...
Dragon Age: Origins.
Pendulum is very much on my love list.
Dorian Gray is way up there. (Oscar Wilde. mmm.)

i used to really love Tim Burton's work, but lately i've grown tired of his stuff. i love his dark style, but he's so predictable. i really hope he doesn't do a remake of Labyrinth. it has potential, but knowing him, he'd just cast the same actors he always casts in his films and turn the slightly eerie fairy-tale world much, much darker than it needs to be.

goosebumps

this song gives me goosebumps.

ignore for a moment that this song is linked to our current unexplainable cultural phenomenon that is so alluring even the haters are obsessed with it.

just enjoy the song.



the first few times i listened to it, i actually came reeeaaally close to tears. just a little bit. don't tell anyone.

it really surprised me, considering i hadn't been displaying (let alone experiencing) emotions for quite a while. i'd been rather content in my gray area; my little island of no tides and lack of weather fluctuations.

sad.

i'm really sad today.

i don't know why.

i'm also feeling rather unremarkable, but i doubt this is related to the melancholic thoughts.
