30 Days of Idanya: Day 1

Since I've been wanting to do some of these challenges, I finally found myself on day one of a month. Since the month of November is composed of 30 days, I am gonna take advantage to talk about things I love the most through a series of questions. Because I obviously can't come up with topics myself. Get to know me better! I'm pretty awesome.

Challenges I will be doing:


RuPaul's Day 1 - Most Loved Queen

Katya Zamolodchikova

This is no surprise to most - Ð•ÐºÐ°Ñ‚ерина Петровна Замолодчикова, but you can call her KATYA. Real name is Brian McCook, which is not Russian at all, yet very Boston-y. To be completely honest, the first time I saw her on the promo for season 7, I was so over her. What a fucking weirdo! Yet when she made her entrance in her Russian get up, talking about stuff that doesn't make sense, I was alright with her. Then when Snatch Game came up, she opened up on TV. Her depression, her substance abuse, and how she could never really love herself. I myself am depressed, although you can hardly ever tell because sometimes you just gotta put your beautiful happy face on and make sure everyone around you is okay. I hated myself for the longest time (I sometimes still do) but meeting her was one of the most special defining moments of my life. I remember crying in line because I couldn't keep it together, I really do love this individual. She is an inspiration to my life, in terms of just keepin' on even when you feel you can't. Someone's bound to laugh at the stupid weird shit you spill. She is the sweetest most genuine person, not forgetting to mention the amazing taste she has (Twin Peaks and Fargo? Marry me.) I miss her everyday, and I hope I can cross paths with this trash living hooker. Until then my queen, I will stalk your Twitter religiously. 


Film Day 1 - Your Favorite Movie
Mulholland Drive

I recently got in the Lynch phase after being in the Fincher phase for a while because of Gone Girl (and this is really hard for me considering the fact that Gone Girl is my religion.) Here we have my new favorite movie - Mulholland Dr. Recently added to the Criterions, and my personal favorites, Mulholland Dr is my number one because it made me feel a series of emotions that I didn't know existed. Aside from confusion of course (it's a Lynch movie, it's not right if you're not lost.) The one scene where Diane and Rita are watching Rebecca Del Rio perform "Crying" by Roy Orbison in Spanish, and they just start crying, I also start to cry. It is SO BEAUTIFUL. I'm a very confusing person, this movie is a very confusing one, no one knows what's going on but Lynch. I like it that way though. This is the girl, this is the film.

Songs Day 1 - A Song That Makes You Happy
Breezeblocks by Alt J

This song has been getting me by for 2 weeks now, and although it's quite a romantic one (in my opinion, I'm done feeling the love) I enjoy the way Alt J builds up their songs, this one particularly. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, I will join the intensity it brings while screaming "PLEASE DON'T GO, I LOVE YOU SO." But I don't love anyone. I guess I could love myself? I love Alt J.


TV Shows Day 1 - A Show that Should've Never Been Cancelled

Twin Peaks

Twin Peaks is just one of those shows that are genuinely intriguing. Although it comes from the mind of David Lynch, this show is actually easy to pick up on. Lasted 2 seasons, then it got cancelled. To our luck, it's coming back next year and I couldn't be more excited. A lot of people don't know this but Dale Cooper is actually one of my all time favorite characters because he reminds me so much of myself. I would go on about how amazing this show is but I'm already late with this post, and I have to go to sleep. That's some good cherry pie.

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...

tv talk

We Are Who We Are A masterpiece from Luca Guadanino BECAUSE MY HEART IS BREAKING. AT THE FACT THAT NOT MANY PEOPLE ARE WATCHING. That's alright, I didn't watch Euphoria so I guess we are even? I hear it's a similar concept except the ones in this program have no real issues that can justify. At least Fraser. Who happens to be my favorite. Who happens to be the one I relate to. Why am I so OBSESSED? Maybe because all I can remember from my time in Italy is being constantly drunk. Wine, Tequila, Limoncello, and Prosecco. Venezia, to be precise. Is it because the soundtrack resonates with my long walks to nowhere. Eating shit, beating heart. Walking along those canals and running towards buses. Camping ground fun. Not to mention, the beginning of the heartbreaks. Merletto Veneziano, biliardo, baciato dal sole.  Because maybe inside I am unlikeable. Broken, but putting my strong fronts. Maybe I don't want to be liked either. Yet people persist...  I can't stand how much...

cleansing soul

I will clean out my closet more than once a month, yet I am too afraid to let go of a lot of things because I am so attached. Most of the clothes in there, I won't even wear more than once. I feel it is pointless to hold on to these things that take up so much space. My mom says she wants to sell them at the flea market, but I would much rather give them to my friends or cousins. Although I would like to make some money, nothing gives me a better satisfaction than giving it away to someone I know will wear and appreciate it. It makes me ten times more happy to give it away than to wait on ebay or some other site until someone decides to buy it.  Also, Pulp Fiction in Spanish is hilarious! It is one of my favorite movies, which I always hoped to watch in Spanish. I know the DVD doesn't have it, and one of the channels on my cable provider showed it on Friday so I made sure to record it. My mom can finally watch it in hopes of understanding it. (I highly doubt it though, no ...
