I wish I could view the slideshows/actual shows on my itouch instead, it's so much quicker and easier, and doesn't get stuck, but Asian mother believes that those things will fail my life :(<br /><br />I liked at least one aspect of every collection I've viewed so far, but the stuff I'd actually wear. . .Jil Sander and Narciso Rodriguez. Narciso Rodriguez's collection held an unfair advantage over the other collections because of a great WSJ article on it, but it really is amazing! </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:85%;">And as for Jil Sander, I refer to the beginning, non maximalist pieces. It's probably an indirect effect of the dreary student life and constant stress from academics and other stuff...but I no longer gravitate toward color. (Is this a sign of depression?)I like the black and white simply cut, flowing pieces best now, whereas before, I would've skipped through those things.<br /><br />Rodriguez's dresses consist of a layer of solid colored silk and an overlaying sheer sheath with the pattern of falling flower petals, and I know that because of the WSJ article, which showcased his only colored piece, a red dress with a white sheath-thing over it. But the black and white ones are amazing as well. . . </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:85%;">So if I could just have some Jenny Humphrey season 4 long blong waves and all those pieces this summer. . .</span></div></div></div></div>Catherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10027408025290515278noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353997141129860289.post-30854473464470111492010-11-24T08:45:00.000-08:002010-11-24T08:56:08.748-08:00Oh look we have three days to work and relax. not happeningI will be seeing Harry Potter Saturday.

<br />My mother told me that I will get to go shopping and buy stuff I actually like when I'm done being a senior aka graduate. I mean wtf. . .that is beyond cruel and logical. Yeah so everybody buy me stuff I like and make me happy because I think I failed a test today from morning anger.
<br />but in happier news. . .it's break . . . did everyone hear about the spray on fabric runway show? And the funny looking faux faux fur coat Martin Margiela made when he had nothing better to do? I don't even like it. . .spray on cotton>plastic itchy coat ^_^ No idea if you can take those concotions off/how to take them off. . .

<br /><div>Now that the interestingness of my summer is completely over I feel like I’m not really going to be interesting anymore. There were two sessions of attempts to bring haute couture to the dorm rooms, numerous attempts to finish homework and get enough sleep…and 3 attempts to do summer French, -0 of them being successful. I don’t really have a lot to say about these. . .That fabulous green halter is my fabulous roomate Vivian's..... . .those are her shades, and my everything else. And that orange tie dye turban is the awesome nerd shirt that everybody said they hated but actually loved to death.
<br /></div><div></div><div>Er the other more bustier like thing is a suite-mate’s. . .from good old average AE. And everything else is the same. I mean I don’t have much to say about fashion and that…it was just really fun. When you live with people who do the same things as you, you just get so much closer and everybody’s a really big happy family. . .and then camp’s over and then things happen. . .and then I get a headache. I’m so coherent, I know....but like yeah I had a taste of complex life and didn't like it so now I cleared the complexity.
<br /></div><div>OH OH OH OH OH. While on a cliché trip to them Ivy Leagues, me and my friend stop by at UO and I find good deals. . .only to have to return empty handed back to the mathers because the line for purchase was too long. Fail much? </div><div></div><div>I'll upload the less pretty ones later. When I've done more of my work. </div><div></div><div>Oh and I got a lookbook thingy. YAY YAY YAY. </div><div></div><div><!--BEGIN HYPE WIDGET--><script src="<a href=">http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js</a>" type="text/javascript"></script>

So I couldn’t actually watch those couture presentations without looking at the pieces from an oil painter’s point of view. . .not that I’m exactly an accomplished one, but the fact that I’m thinking in the terms of one makes me feel damn cool.<br />The one that I saw on blogs and stuff before visiting Style.com after a tiring, tiring week. . .Givenchy.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">The textures were deep and intricate. . .feathers, sheers, shiny thingies. . .and the whole skeletal idea very compelling.

Too much has happened. . .SATs (for fun, wtf?), finals, finals, finals, finals, three finals in one effing day. . .locked out of the house after jogging and going to visit them old schools. . . Too much stress mitigates the impulse to look up inspiration and such. But what the last thing I got inspired by before all the academic atrocity?<br /><br />Military.<br /><br />Not those little cute fitted military jackets you find at Urban Outfitters or F21 or something, but like real military. Real dark green costumes and badges and hats and boots that radiate the message of “I’m strong, don’t fuck with me” instead of “I’m cute please DO fuck me.”<br />Needless to say this inspiration is from the er Asian shows. You know the Asian film market consists mostly of T.V series on DVD that each yield at least 10 hours, usually 30 hours or more.<br />But my interest in this military stuff is very non fashion/style/art related. There’s a difference between the ability of clothes to create a character for THEMSELVES and the power clothes can create for a PERSON.<br /><br />Audrey Hepburn, Princess Diana, political females. . .they’re not going to don those big Viktor&Rolf things and walk around talking about healthcare. . .they’ve got so many more important things to worry about and have to have the attention focused on the words they speak, not the intricacies of their attire. So what these chicks get is a look that is immaculate, nice, friendly, and not fat. And then people listen to them and vote for them or watch their movies or whatever. This is called the POWER of clothes.<br /><br /><br /><br /><p>The other side is the let’s say ARTISTIC SIDE. That is when the wearer or person loses all character of their own and the clothes take over. The clothes create the specific feel and persona for the model who is now just a face, or actually just a frame. See leaders and people that need to be known for what they do can’t wear something so amazing and amazingly distracting.<br />So the point is this infatuation with military has nothing to do with actual couture or whatever, but rather with the POWER normal/not-for-artistic-appeal garments can bring. These military costumes, when unmarred by the goal of successful marketing to today’s chic youth, are the epitome of strength, authority, and elegance if it happens to be the Guomindang with enough money.<br /></p><br /><p>And when juxtaposed against the feminine daintiness (yeah I don’t care about feminism that much sorry) of a woman in qipao or apparently the word is cheongsam, is really quite a sight. It provides not artistic inspiration, but inspiration of the mind, to be strong, confident, and to never forget that elegance and immaculacy does count, no matter how amazing Lady Gaga or the Viktor&Rolf models look.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.4738.com/uploads/allimg/100414/111U16460-1.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 500px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 751px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.4738.com/uploads/allimg/100414/111U16460-1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">This is the actual green nice costumes. the below are when he wasn't a general.

If so, wear high heels!” Or “if you’re flat chested wear a lot of ruffles!” I mean they have superb spreads that are really quite amazing but the whole celebrity in spread thing has just never been good. UNTIL THIS though. This dude is really good at acting and has an amazing voice and my opinion of him heightened when I searched him (I do this for every main actor of a film) and got linked to Susie Bubble’s blog. </p><br /><br /><p>And then I see all these images, shirt resembling PAPER STRIP cutouts, and printed creepy Asian pants, POKER PRINT shirt, CREEPY EXPRESSION! Of course, that random Asian chick does not do the world of couture any justice at all, but my opinion of Asians and what they model while being models completely changes oh my god enlightenment.

It's about the price of the Topshop ones, ($80), and superb quality. Because yes, in China, these craftspeople are not appreciated.

To do well in math I have to fail physics apparently.<br /><br />So this is what went on in the chambers of my head after I completed my rounds and uh stared at uh you know those cool lookin’ guys who you know are smarter than god (look up, see him? Not as cool looking as the other guys).<br /><br />The activities of a teenager last with him throughout his whole life. So basically what we’re doing right now is what we love so much that we do it for the rest of our lives. And because what we’re all doing is very very different from each other, we’re going to be very very different people when we grow up.<br /><br />That’s nice. I like diversity in this world. And I like you. Diversity is colorful and pretty like Dries Van Noten. You look pretty with me and the rest of the world.<br /><br />But even though we’re all different people it’s kind of nice how inside we’re still wondering about the same things (uh scientists shoved this niceness at me, so what I’m saying is legitimate but not out straight out of my head.) According to them, we all wonder about the meaning of life, our future, and sexuality.<br /><br />I constantly ask people what the meaning of life is and they constantly answer it lamely, and also those really smart kids at math meets-they discuss sexuality and what do you say when a girl says “does this dress make me look fat?”<br /><br />You say: “No, you make you look fat!”<br /><br />What the f(x)? That’s really rude yet logical like their USAMO proofs.<br /><br />But really…isn’t it sort of wonderful how all these people are similar in thought so often? These kids are all similar!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Vy73G0xcjXkOodlw8cQu27L5Kn1qY9WA-F_csPDO-iwiXoqnDEn3sQXkTqI6E6ELuRPM4JsGhdVEtQAVSzXSURHxhWQp-5jMlDUyNhud0qBZizgy3DEPDiVPBFXnTv41VkoL5f-d5VFb/s1600/teen1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466101360346878770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 279px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 416px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Vy73G0xcjXkOodlw8cQu27L5Kn1qY9WA-F_csPDO-iwiXoqnDEn3sQXkTqI6E6ELuRPM4JsGhdVEtQAVSzXSURHxhWQp-5jMlDUyNhud0qBZizgy3DEPDiVPBFXnTv41VkoL5f-d5VFb/s400/teen1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />She's awesome sort of sophisticated and like the ones below.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3IDytmY9gQOdjR2fdcmUzxPp3ViAbFE1n6s6wu6XBH1IY0OilqrkdJN-KkhldYfc9-12t39GPoW-P6rU8G1KmiiDqtw-sRbDuSdNw03qZtc2qYuTf52H5RLXtdx_sX6FCr7G6Uge-NjbK/s1600/teen2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466101625061139138" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 285px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 415px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3IDytmY9gQOdjR2fdcmUzxPp3ViAbFE1n6s6wu6XBH1IY0OilqrkdJN-KkhldYfc9-12t39GPoW-P6rU8G1KmiiDqtw-sRbDuSdNw03qZtc2qYuTf52H5RLXtdx_sX6FCr7G6Uge-NjbK/s400/teen2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Perhaps potheads, perhaps not, rocking in docs.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkBwImSY2nZr4Dv1S73LKDDk9YchZe60M8noVdkpJogk8XdFRE4m_Fy0CdEKEcjwIV7c5XIooN8U5Ujvx6LstqwtfWofthLry5L3hOOTKXzRSnslGdULVTJWrQ2UBgNYlz-6GaRAE83EAF/s1600/teen3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466101787601091810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 433px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 290px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkBwImSY2nZr4Dv1S73LKDDk9YchZe60M8noVdkpJogk8XdFRE4m_Fy0CdEKEcjwIV7c5XIooN8U5Ujvx6LstqwtfWofthLry5L3hOOTKXzRSnslGdULVTJWrQ2UBgNYlz-6GaRAE83EAF/s400/teen3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />I don't want to say much, for fear that these people would discover this<br />piece of internet space and so no names-they're just mathies that I know are like the people above. it's surprising and kind of nice to know I'm like them in a way. . .

Because I don’t care that much.(and neither do you, for that matter)<br /><br /><br />I’m usually a “color color kill me if you have no color” person, but recently experienced short erratic weeks of minimal, monochromatic-ness. Though I’ve always been a fan of long lengths and avante garde, I never truly felt I could possibly subside on neutrals only.<br /><br />To satiate my thirst, I have created Two wishlists-one for when I feel minimal and one for when I feel maximal. Like my sister Christina, I have a special fondness for the colorful bright prints of Dries Van Noten , and so around 60% of my maximal (no I did make that up-I used my less than $200 graphing calculator to calculate :D) wishlist is comprised of it.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8V7IZQ6HFrqwLIxXOXL5joKEIKBkDedy8rrDdKLBjyn18XG1RVJGmkzm45Q-TuWyz2FwWfz0Rvw_bC-ghh-Ia__Hi3BpgP16ANzj1BAwbYB-0LRq5ARTDMz25f3Ai1qrNj7arsI-U8ezn/s1600/colorful+spring.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464237947531620482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8V7IZQ6HFrqwLIxXOXL5joKEIKBkDedy8rrDdKLBjyn18XG1RVJGmkzm45Q-TuWyz2FwWfz0Rvw_bC-ghh-Ia__Hi3BpgP16ANzj1BAwbYB-0LRq5ARTDMz25f3Ai1qrNj7arsI-U8ezn/s400/colorful+spring.jpg" border="0" /></a> <span style="font-size:78%;">Pink Miu Miu dress, DVN cropped blue jacket, Marc Jacobs teal floral skirt, Stella McCartney awesome dead grass skirt (yes I'm making the names up), DVN print trousers, DVN print gathered waist skirt (no that is it's brownsfashion.com name!), Miu Miu sparrow print pumps, Tom Binns red necklace, Juicy Couture blue pansy ring (don't kill me!

And seriously what is this whole wax thing? I’m sticking to chairs. . . I’ll keep them though, considering they were pretty much free. And with the leftovers on my plastic card of $$, I purchased bright yellow tights, which should arrive soon.<br /><br />I have another plastic card coming in to me in a couple weeks. I figure that I’m going to school next year, and that while immersed in academics, it’s a good idea to be COMFORTABLE, so I figure that I might hit upon some PRACTICAL pantswear- what do you think, high rise Earnest Sewns that might be unflattering or comfy Delias corduroys that might earn the disapproval of my sister pretty hot people and some organ within me? And yes I care what others think-it's what creates me. (Quite a philosphical conclusion)<br /><br />The Dalai Lama likes Doc Martens.

But these spread emanate a sense of age frozen in time, a war that passed and went but still cannot be forgotten.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXMBvhET5iFMK9XX0p4wscu9EjXJuvyeXelifzI5YsKZMqPE0ojkfitJQGv5a1DhJjvcVY9xIkIzYohsR5t4y8fRgrTriXLhexIxu7KBJ-D3_STvxb09o02uUhE27FZmr6ADYaG3QWFh7s/s1600/vogue+china!"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5461627837143650306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 474px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 358px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXMBvhET5iFMK9XX0p4wscu9EjXJuvyeXelifzI5YsKZMqPE0ojkfitJQGv5a1DhJjvcVY9xIkIzYohsR5t4y8fRgrTriXLhexIxu7KBJ-D3_STvxb09o02uUhE27FZmr6ADYaG3QWFh7s/s400/vogue+china!" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_YcoxJ0XmonSRJUiyN4l4qsrvDh5sjszNqp0LGqQsS6kbNIQidbfGKf8spzGBgt2V31QYk_8sX4ckcRT9I3YneUUaSAkYRfkyLorzIeqYP4bsFuTQRoBhkdfbQL4mkSLEhl9uscmE-Wfr/s1600/vogue+china+2"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5461627978188049474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 479px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 380px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_YcoxJ0XmonSRJUiyN4l4qsrvDh5sjszNqp0LGqQsS6kbNIQidbfGKf8spzGBgt2V31QYk_8sX4ckcRT9I3YneUUaSAkYRfkyLorzIeqYP4bsFuTQRoBhkdfbQL4mkSLEhl9uscmE-Wfr/s400/vogue+china+2" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />The revolutions of the past have always been part of who the people are. Countless dramas have been filmed emphasizing the power and triumph of the people who believed in their doctrines and their comrades.<br /><br />My father’s shelves contain a myriad of books containing lengthy essays debating on the character and classical fighting strategies both the Communists and Nationalists used. In these books, it seems what lasts has always been the pride of winning, the pride of overcoming the impossible impasses.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBdQ9RWluqO9QdshaenOG2dxZx164oidc30TQCpD44J_bL0uCzureaty2zn4C2R9M_dWiUQ0E6RDyQJGrz-6zkQSbdjlD4IRuviyhxb3cr7VSMO5YpXifbSg41QzgtNGY7-Lfm2hMyjPGq/s1600/vogue+china+3"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5461628099879654242" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 491px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 380px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBdQ9RWluqO9QdshaenOG2dxZx164oidc30TQCpD44J_bL0uCzureaty2zn4C2R9M_dWiUQ0E6RDyQJGrz-6zkQSbdjlD4IRuviyhxb3cr7VSMO5YpXifbSg41QzgtNGY7-Lfm2hMyjPGq/s400/vogue+china+3" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Though never the core theme, the dramas almost always hint at the invincibility of the Communist soldiers. In the story of two siblings, the one who chose the stars would live on, while the one who chose the sun would drown in the large mountaintop that is grass covered quicksand.<br /><br />For the directors, it’s always a matter of showing the plot, to take the triumph of the Communists, add a literary theme, and then create the drama.<br /><br />For these Vogue editors and stylists, it’s a very different story. The positions of these models are rigid, and the expressions are stationary on the faces. The men in these spreads show none of the handsome heroism and invincibility of the soldiers portrayed in the dramas. Those guys are actually kind of ugly.<br /><br />Du Juan emanates a sense of immaculate and fragile strength. With her sharp haircut and upright positions, her fragile strength creates a sense of fascination unique from the women of the dramas.<br /></p><p>I think that these images get to the crux of the truth: that it’s not the triumph that makes the war so potent in the minds of the people. Of my countless relatives that lived through the war, the triumph of the Communists was impersonal, and far from their actual experience with the battle.<br /><br />It is the experience of war and carnage, frozen in its state that is part of the people, not merely the triumph of the battles.<br /></p><p> </p><p>Off to the side: School ended for April vacation but this is going to be my first time with finals. . .which does not sound too appetizing. And report cards were sent home the day before break (whose idea is this?). I hate those no matter what they look like. . . and I'm also waiting for some stuff to arrive.<br /></p>Catherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10027408025290515278noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353997141129860289.post-65639238435256530692010-04-09T18:18:00.000-07:002010-04-09T18:23:24.681-07:00Asian is spelled Azn in math<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixIWEsBPZ6qF5YIATu3r08GZecymCcAP7Tbf4Uy1iK3R2mFjwimwvU8DGSKH7YZKWSyXK7D-nWdqNuv-50m7rMRSKzaeRNob7W867TePKAkbi9iLGIlp0q9iB1PznSYzMwaYhSbtDGs2xW/s1600/asian+chic+3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458312693645721330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 350px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 428px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixIWEsBPZ6qF5YIATu3r08GZecymCcAP7Tbf4Uy1iK3R2mFjwimwvU8DGSKH7YZKWSyXK7D-nWdqNuv-50m7rMRSKzaeRNob7W867TePKAkbi9iLGIlp0q9iB1PznSYzMwaYhSbtDGs2xW/s400/asian+chic+3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinfksXB4O61_cjy5N5oMhvOqtisaUAqrMmyvzrkK8cVCfLqB47TnWfEPTRhj90iMPp8BIH4AszPDzl7XkWYo8Lp45L2U13fWV5_XGYzt4FtF9SfUjQdexWzn4Aybo726TJsc8Ea7fHDBSC/s1600/asian+chic+2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458312552351108306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 357px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 436px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinfksXB4O61_cjy5N5oMhvOqtisaUAqrMmyvzrkK8cVCfLqB47TnWfEPTRhj90iMPp8BIH4AszPDzl7XkWYo8Lp45L2U13fWV5_XGYzt4FtF9SfUjQdexWzn4Aybo726TJsc8Ea7fHDBSC/s400/asian+chic+2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTG9v1OB-zN9Zm37AIQElxbij23TShKPAE5q8E9v751UcqIKx3jYTUeMYnH_-GL0KoBRS-8zQNFTy58ywpFbTctFzgUczelyAt6ZBfHviY2Nu6mM_QwLK1z9AbNDtP3NQrLJbzIzi8O6Qu/s1600/asian+chic.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458312210534974978" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 380px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 437px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTG9v1OB-zN9Zm37AIQElxbij23TShKPAE5q8E9v751UcqIKx3jYTUeMYnH_-GL0KoBRS-8zQNFTy58ywpFbTctFzgUczelyAt6ZBfHviY2Nu6mM_QwLK1z9AbNDtP3NQrLJbzIzi8O6Qu/s400/asian+chic.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I just spent six hours of today being a young creep with messy hair at the states math meet. I succeeded in the art of failing using the help of guessing by logic, and spent high amounts of time staring at the gorgeous visages of famous mathletes strolling around. These kids are beautiful mentally and physically, they look awesome, do math awesome, talk awesome, walk awesome, and just simply exude awesomeness. During the car ride to the site of the meet/ride back/both, I was brought to the realization that by stalking fashionable and math people, I don’t really have a life.<br />But what actually is the meaning of life?<br /><br /><br />“STALKING!!!. . .. ... .right?”<br />“Nope.”<br /><br />^^^^^^^^^This is basically what they look like, except insert male features in faces (not that females aren’t awesome but I didn’t see them/fall in love with them.)<br /><br />It’s actually lame how real nerds do not wear large black glasses with khakis and argyle sweaters, and people who dress like that can’t actually do these little creepy wordy puzzles known as math.<br /><br />But it doesn’t matter, because I don’t want to argue with felines whose heels and stare could rip my throat apart.<br /><br /><br />Errr. . .convos, the words exchanged between more than one person.<br /><br />(As Catherine sit struggling with the new idea of logarithms, or logs, the pieces of wood that float in a swamp.)<br /><br />Mother: Hey Catherine, could you try some of these on? (holds up light peach colored silk dress)<br /><br />Catherine: Sure I guess. . .<br /><br />Christina walks over and<br /><br />Christina: Hey! I want those.<br /><br />30 minutes later, As she struggles with the inequalities of wood,<br /><br />Mom: Also, can you try these? (Holds up two of her old tops white lace crop and green-blue luxe knit<br /><br />Catherine: Um yeah<br /><br />Catherine: Hey they look nice thanks! (Puts them in her closet)<br /><br />20 minutes later<br /><br />Mom: Hey can you let Christina try those two tops<br /><br />Catherine opens closet and hands Christina lace crop<br /><br />Christina while putting it on<br /><br />Christina: Ahh, this can’t go over my head, Cathy, can you pull this over my head?<br /><br /><br />So yeah if I fail my log test these two have some responsibility.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div><br /></div>Catherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10027408025290515278noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353997141129860289.post-670009387931623442010-03-31T19:49:00.001-07:002010-03-31T19:53:22.523-07:00Gelato on the Couch<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhecoc4g5eLZB3ehTihY8jm737PyqlsAAAr8kSXJyVKYBsycx9vc7Vjp8tHt5Eldit-V06mwHZvQ2xexN1TTP3cr48fxie0hN-6OUMipQ_dDbsuOcWGHaH7fMiQtY6jqHwyHdI38jW8TzOj/s1600/summer+comfort+5.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454996110978730498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 327px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhecoc4g5eLZB3ehTihY8jm737PyqlsAAAr8kSXJyVKYBsycx9vc7Vjp8tHt5Eldit-V06mwHZvQ2xexN1TTP3cr48fxie0hN-6OUMipQ_dDbsuOcWGHaH7fMiQtY6jqHwyHdI38jW8TzOj/s400/summer+comfort+5.jpg" border="0" /></a> Sci-fi is very nice and pretty.

You do not own your atoms, you are only their present caretaker. Truth. </div><br /><br /><div>Atoms are composed of a nucleus of neutrons and protons, with teeny tiny negatively charged electrons floating around it. Atoms are mostly empty space. You are mostly empty space, and that empty space doesn’t even belong to you. Because you are empty space.<br /><br />Studying for this science test is depressing. Science is depressing. Science brings enlightenment to us. It makes us realize how little we mean to the universe, how insignificant our thoughts really are. It’s a systematic and logical study of the truth, of the ugly, naked, simple truth. Those who are willing to understand the sciences are brave and selfless.<br /><br />And then there’s the other world of literature, philosophy, and the arts. Writers and thinkers create elaborate, beautiful, intricate explanations that are false fantasies. The words that are used to describe Those amazing awesome Armadillos that Mcqueen created, and they way they compelled you? Wait you’re not even anything, and those Armadillos are just bonds of molecules. . . that result into a shape that will later compose the pacifier that your baby puts in his mouth.<br /><br />And every piece. Every piece of genius is nothing but a chunk of empty space. That is the truth.<br /><br />But If you truly, truly think about it, is it not marvelous that something so beautiful, epic, and ethereal and insert more multi syllable adjectives to get my point across can be created from something as symbol and lame (xD) as space and hydrogen bonds or what the crap. That beauty and awesomeness (way to go with clever descriptions) can be created from naked, ugly truths. </div></div></div></div></div></div>Catherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10027408025290515278noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353997141129860289.post-27388613467300750632010-03-18T19:02:00.000-07:002010-03-18T19:09:36.256-07:00Of Pastels and Poop<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguAJBjb1vgc8F-jpdfIy7uq8DHrLScIu4I3mBwCxwFvDK8fIFt2rGSajnR-5AjZVmimlBR3PkWllhAbS96QCq6EdXUBb1hxjrqLyNI9JsE6Q18BbZEVegV8DauQrKvIHl-tPkjG7nkono9/s1600-h/of+pastels+and+poop.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450161100136773954" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 432px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 443px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguAJBjb1vgc8F-jpdfIy7uq8DHrLScIu4I3mBwCxwFvDK8fIFt2rGSajnR-5AjZVmimlBR3PkWllhAbS96QCq6EdXUBb1hxjrqLyNI9JsE6Q18BbZEVegV8DauQrKvIHl-tPkjG7nkono9/s400/of+pastels+and+poop.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>It's a square.
