;P
Okay so Manfred has (probably unknowingly) shamed me into writing this post. I uplaud you Manfred for updating so often and writing/sharing so much. But yes it shames me because i am unable to stay faithful to blogging (cuz im a lazy arse as youve probably already figured out). But i will take this shame and use it as inspiration to rant long and hard about recent events in my pirate life
;)
So first off we shall move backwords from this moment to however far i can remeber i think i have ALOT to say...(im digressing...my bad...okay ill just stop and acctually write :D)
Speakinbg of English im presenting my poem tommorow. I chose Edgar Allen Poe and wanted to do The Raven. Its long though and Ms. H said i could only do a passage. Instead im doing Lenore:
Ah, broken is the golden bowl! the spirit flown forever! Let the bell toll!- a saintly soul floats on the Stygian river; And, Guy de Vere, hast thou no tear?- weep now or nevermore! See! on yon drear and rigid bier low lies thy love, Lenore! Come! let the burial rite be read- the funeral song be sung!- An anthem for the queenliest dead that ever died so young- A dirge for her the doubly dead in that she died so young. "Wretches! ye loved her for her wealth and hated her for her pride, And when she fell in feeble health, ye blessed her- that she died! How shall the ritual, then, be read?- the requiem how be sung By you- by yours, the evil eye,- by yours, the slanderous tongue That did to death the innocence that died, and died so young?" Peccavimus; but rave not thus! and let a Sabbath song Go up to God so solemnly the dead may feel no wrong. The sweet Lenore hath "gone before," with Hope, that flew beside, Leaving thee wild for the dear child that should have been thy bride. For her, the fair and debonair, that now so lowly lies, The life upon her yellow hair but not within her eyes The life still there, upon her hair- the death upon her eyes. "Avaunt! avaunt! from fiends below, the indignant ghost is riven- From Hell unto a high estate far up within the Heaven- From grief and groan, to a golden throne, beside the King of Heaven! Let no bell toll, then,- lest her soul, amid its hallowed mirth, Should catch the note as it doth float up from the damned Earth! And I!- to-night my heart is light!- no dirge will I upraise, But waft the angel on her flight with a Paean of old days!"
Its quite the beautiful albeit dark poem and is related to the Raven. Moving on; yesterday my family went to the african safari. I was meant to go but i was feeling really sick and apparently i had a fever too. Plus im on my PMS time, so i dont feel taht great (dosent help tha i got a wretched cold today >.>) But yeah i didnt got and i stayed home. Watched Chaplin with RDJ♥. It was GOOD. I love this man, he never ceases to amaze me. I also re watched Stardust and Men in Black I. I also watched the BBC version of Sherlock Holmes with my mom. Watched the second episode today. then SATURDAY. I went to Fashion Outlet Mall in Buffalo for prom shopping THE DEALS AND DISCOUNTS. Let me amaze you with my Shopping ability (even though i despise shopping I always get a deal on really good clothes) Dress: After running around the mall and going to every shop with dresses, i ended up at dress barn. Saw one i liked. Only dress I tried on. HAH. I hate trying on clothes, im not a dress person so i didnt wanna try on dresses. The dress was the only size 8. Its cream with silky black borders around the neck and hemline. 3 black roses silk screened to the front. very flowy and kisses the tops of my knees. I love it because you can dress it up for evening wear and dress it down for casual wear. Its VERY simple and cost...wait for it...FORTY BUCKS. Whats more a lady at he billing line gave me a 5 dollar off coupon cuz she wasnt gonna use it so dress bill came to with tax - 36 dollars and change. Shoes- Looked everywhere. Aldo heels killed my feet. Came to naturalizer after ALOT of trying on and killing my poor feet. Finding shoes is hard for me, i have size 10 feet. Besides ive never worn heels and i wanted a black pair so i can wear them later. Ive been wanting a pair of lace heels. Ended up- Black, lattice pattern, peep toe, and quite surprisingle and comfortably 3.5 inch heels. Cost - 38 dollars and change.
Next I wanted a blazer to make the dress more formal. Ive always wanted a 3/4th sleeved cropped black silky blazer. Saks Fifth avenue. 100 dollar Calvin Klein Blazer, on sale for 70 dollars. Got a coupon and bought it for 50 buck DEAL. Next just some clothes for me, 5 dollar GAP jeans in grey and the last military jacket from esprit, originally 80 bucks reduced to 40 bucks, hada coupon so i got it for 20 bucks DEAL.
So all my prom stuff so far comes to about 120 dollars, alot of people bought their dressees ONLY for 200 bucks. Yes I AM AWESOME.
I just have to buy a clutch and jewllery and hair stuff. ;) Friday. JACKIEE CAME OUT. I didnt go see cuz i had to meet someone for a job offer. My dads friend. We all had dinner and talked about what i wanna do with my life. I also accepted my offer from OCAD for Environmental Design. That leads me too im looking for a well priced apartment to rent with roomates. But jackie yeah, my friends wanted to see it 2D and i wanted to see it 3D so i dont mind not going. I also went to see Hamelt the play at Bathurst Street theatre. LOVED IT. It was different from the movie. I had my first Korean BBQ with Ellie after
