This is the moment when you want to borrow someone's baby and dress 'em up! Goodness gracious you're cute, kid!
And for the first time in a long time (and second time in my life), I got excited about halloween! Last night, I was a mime:
You can't see it, but I'm wearing the white brogues! And the right glove is off since I am a child and I cannot stand frivolous things, such as lady-gloves. How cute is the Audrey?!!!! <3 And future note to self: don't dress up as someone who isn't supposed to talk when people ask questions. Got so stressed about all the grief people gave me and released it on the dance floor. Oh, yeah, stop dancing crazy in front of strangers. And lastly, stray away from the geisha look! ugh it's too tightly associated with me. can't get away.
I just saw this preview for the documentary, Lemonade. It's about ad execs who got laid off but started doing some amazing things. I got choked up at the sight of the painter and felt my gut shrivel (in the good way).
Speaking of film, there are few that I would like to acquaint myself with before the year is over:
Manhattan Rosemary's Baby Sabrina (1954) Funny Face The Shop Around the Corner (1940)
I have been especially excited about The Shop ever since I watched the original "preview" that they would play at cinema. And I shamelessly love You've Got Mail- the soundtrack, the photography, witty banter and bits of sugarcoated sarcasm. "Go to the mattresses! Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Wednesday..." To think that the theme was derived from an older movie where they actually used snail mail, my ideal romanticism is complete. This holiday season may be the perfect time to be a hermit and cozy up to hot chocolate and classic moview. If D* would come join me one of these weeks, that would complete the picture. Yeep!!
This weekend has started on an amazing footing, with my oh-so-lovely lady friend and her +1. They're such great company and it's always good times galore. My only disappointment is not being able to take them around to all the favorite places in the v. limited time of two days. And I also apologize officially to the Manboy, sorry for going to the salon! hah, ladies' gotsta do what ladies' gotsta do, yeh? I'm wearing the white patent brogues she gave to me, brand new, and I LOVES it! At first, I was a bit hesitant about the edginess of it all but it's such an inspiration wearing them. I feel french-chic.
I am ready to move on from this city, as much as I love being here. I crave for new experiences and a fresh perspective.
I miss Jasmin immensely. Every time I think of her, my mind numbs and I cannot stand the haze of the last few weeks. I tend to lock my emotions away when trauma hits, but it unlocks itself in the most random moments and just gushes out. I love you. I love you. I love you my little baby.
It's times like these that make me grateful for my sight.
