Michelle Sank: Reality Crossings.



"As we know, in adolescence everything is excruciatingly close to the skin, emotions are high, logic is secondary. Everything: hair-style, clothing, jewellery, music, slang, posture and mere presence take on monumental significance. Adolescence, more than any other stage in one's life, is an immediate experience - every moment carrying the weight of a developing identity." 

-Peggy Sue Amison

My So Called Life...

I just finished watching the first and only series. I am certain so many people have obviously complained about how upsetting it is that it just stops, giving absolutely no closure but I am going to complain anyway. After becoming so emotionally involved with the characters** I was completely torn away from finding out what happens to any of them, also there is no overly emotional finale episode which I would have loved SO much.

** Minus Ricky.

Brit Brit.

This is a playing card that came from an entire pack that came free with smash hits magazine. It is one of my biggest regrets that for some reason I threw all the others away and just kept 'queen of hearts' Britney.

Bring back the trainwreck.

So so Sad...

Poor old Siobhan. Ghosts is one of the best albums I have ever heard and Siobhan Donaghy is one of the most deserving people to be a successful pop star.

Here is a recent interview with her discussing how underrated her music is and how she isn't going to bother making any more.

Early FMP Ideas.



Myself Moving.

LILYA 4-EVER

I watched this before I went to sleep last night and it gave me the most horrific nightmares. It was an amazing depiction of the struggles of adolescence within an extreme and terrifying environment. If you haven't seen it then watch it but be prepared to hate men and beg for the main character to kill herself.

"The fabric research Raf Simons undertook for this collection is evident in the gradiated patterns that were achieved by weaving the highly structured tailoring."

I want it.
