song is on my mind

The Academy Is... - About A Girl
 Today I woke up thinking of this song. It brings me nothing but good memories though. When I was a sophomore in high school, I was still transitioning from my many crazy styles. When I was a freshman, I considered myself to be emo/scene, which had me listening to a bunch of music I really couldn't comprehend but still made me cool. Some Paramore, some BMTH, but by the summer of 2009, I was on my way to become "indie" because I was bullied by some "indie" girls and my way of getting back at them was to become one of them. It was not only that, but I also admired them, and thought they were cool (if that makes any sense?) Their style was something unheard of where I live, and I always aspired to be different. Okay, too much derailing of the point I am trying to convey, and how this song has a meaning to it. Anyways, when I went back to school, this was one of my favorite songs because I always sought myself to be a hopeless romantic. The lyrics of this song were like a victory cry that made it okay for me to feel in those times. Also, I was totally into boys with William Beckett hair. That long wavy-ish hair that I never got to tousle because boys from here don't have that kind of hair. A fifteen year old girl in my position could only dream. Now I am on the edge of twenty, almost twenty one, caressing my hair product induced waves.

10 Things I learned from watching RuPaul's Drag Race

As some of you may know, I am deeply obsessed with RuPaul's Drag Race. With Season 8 and the 100th episode airing today, I've decided to express my emotions through a FABULOUS AND SICKENING LIST! Here is what this show has done for me. 10. Believe in Your Craft; WORK IT OUT! Sometimes, we wish we could pull off things we don't think we are good at. But hey, no one has to know what a wreck you are. COMMIT TO YOUR LOOK. Commit to your talent, and commit to yourself. Once you do, no one can come for you baby. You've got this in the bag. Unless you cause a total car crash and piss off Mama Ru. 9. You're more than just a pretty face Although to be a successful drag queen one must master the art of giving GOOD FACE, Mama Ru has taught me that it takes more than just FACE to be a drag superstar. While looking for Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent, you have to remember that even though you may not be good at something, if you apply the Force of th...

5 Movies To Watch On Father's Day

Since my dad isn't much of a festive fellow, I've decided to whip up a short list of films about fathers, both good and bad in honor of Father's Day. Just in case your dad isn't into celebrating and going out for dinner, you can have a list of films to stay in and watch. Eraserhead (Dir: David Lynch) From the mind of my filmmaker father David Lynch, his first feature length film is set in a industrial glum city in which our main character Henry Spencer learns he is a father, and undergoes deep hallucinations which play around Spencer's head while caring for a mostly deformed child. Now, majority of the time we don't know what David Lynch's films are about. It's said that this film was based around Lynch's thoughts on fatherhood. The fear of parenting, which brings great dread to me on just the thought alone. But, Lynch is also known to make his films open to interpretations depending on the viewer, so you can never really pin point w...

Time Will Tell - Blood Orange I love you in this moment. And all the other times I said I did. All the times I said I would. And all the ones I said I will. I meant it. I mean it. I stand by it. As long as you are forever, I’ll be a life time. Happy Birthday, LOML.
