Chills.

Will Govus

I don't know whats been up with me lately but I have been more, I guess you can say, bitchy maybe than usual. And I love being by myself. Its that weird? I guess it can be but I don't know if this is some kind of a crazy phase or the stress and annoyance levels of school are getting to me. But I have definitely been on the dark side more than the light usual. Therefore, I thought this post ought to reflect my mood. These pictures literally gave me chills the first time I saw them. And I'm pretty sure Will Govus is only 17 or 18 years of age. Marry me.

Speaking of the dark side (wait for this, im going too make a really awkward transition) the musical, Razia's Shadow, is an an epic tale of hope and love and the division of the light and dark worlds. This musical was created by Thomas Dutton from the band, Forgive Durden when the idea came to him in a dream. The story is vague, says Thomas Dutton as he explained it as "The first half is the creation and ultimate division of the world. The second half is the story of destined love and the world being reunited as one."

Thomas Dutton took the concept of a musical, a magnificent story, and utilized special guest vocalists perfectly. This musical has so much going on within it that it requires a good sit down at the computer with a cup of tea and a long read of what its about and the characters to understand it completely. This is the CD cover, it comes with all the lyrics to the songs so its easy to follow along with the story. wow. IM A DORK! No, but its really awesome.

But the coolest part is the star-studded CAST. Its a collaboration of the best singers from many related bands. Among the outstanding cast members are Forgive Durden's fellow Fueled By Ramen (the label) artists: Brendan Urie of Panic At The Disco, Greta Salpeter of The Hush Sound, Dan Young of This Providence. All appearing alongside members of such bands as mewithoutYou, The Dear Hunter, Say Anything, Saves The Day, Gatsbys American Dream, Portugal. The Man, The Audition, Man In The Blue Van, The Matches, and An Angle.

I want to thank all of you who have been keeping my grandparents in your prayers, which I told you about in my last post. Your love and thoughtfulness warms my heart. And brings me out of the dark side :)
All my love.

P.S. Another Magazine is my LOVE. GO HERE. NOW.
P.P.S. Perforated Dream Cloud is also my love, so go there too. Even though Kizzy just started a blog, she has an amazing mind and her posts are intriguing. Its a good addition to any blog list. And I'm not just saying that because shes my close friend. So, give my girl Kizzy some love!
P.P.P.S. I wrote a ton in this post! My mistake for rambling. ha.

Sad to say, but I wanted to put up a new post, but I haven't been really inspired lately in my own life. I mean, I am inspired by you bloggers everyday, but I have been kind of stressed over school. I'm not a crazy person about my grades, but when you've got to get things done, it can all get so chaotic. I wish I could just hide and sleep away till whenever I felt like waking up and facing life. Sorry to get so depressing! Wow. But I just thought you should know that I'm like a step or so down from the happy-meter.

On a more lighter note, there's this really cool website that sells hilarious designs called NoiseBot.com. I posted a couple of my favorite t-shirt designs that made me laugh. Oh and these designs don't have to be soley printed on shirts, they also print on hoodies and tote bags and they are so cheap and very original. I hope you get a good chuckle out of them!...









If you like any that you see here and are interested, almost all of these designs can be found on the homepage. You can even choose the color you want for your t-shirt, hoodie, or tote...I think I might be convincing myself to buy one! I do need a new spring bag for school. Anyway, I hope I brightened your day just a little! I love you all. Keep being your fabulous selves.

So continuing my last post of 10 sweet photographs, these are the 10 I like to call the sours. When finding them I was searching for pictures that have a Gothic, mysterious, a tad creepy, and rebellious tone to them. The Sours: in all their dark beauty...

Photography: Sweet & Sour

I am a huge fan of photography, so I decided to post pictures this week in a different approach. Today I'm posting 10 pictures in pastel colors like robins egg blue and bubblegum pink. I like to call these pictures the sweet pictures, in comparison to my next post, which will be 10 pictures i like to call the sours. No, I'm not talking about the Chinese sweet and sour sauce you put on your rice, although, that does sound delicious. This is just the way my thought process came about when deciding what my next post should be. So for today, the sweets: in all their sugary wonderfulness. Hope i made you hungry after reading that!...

Sweet

Thoughts, por favor?

-much love as always.
