My apologies for the emo-like facial expressions. I've been told a lot that I always look unhappy, which is weird, because I'm the most happy-go-lucky person ever. No, seriously. I'm a total goofball.

New hair for school. I feared that I'd look like Nicki Minaj. Not that I hate her or anything, I just don't like looking like I copy people.



After so many long years of pining over music and collecting CDs--I believe my very first one was Janet Jackson's All For You--I am down to only four, two of which I just bought. This is a shame! I miss my CDs! I miss proudly being able to show off my eclectic taste. Therefore, I must hit up CDNOW and buy cheap CDs so I can stack them on my shelf and present them like, "Yes. These are my favorite artists."



I just bought Hot Chip and Me'Shell Ndegeocello. Does anyone else agree that CDs are about to become vintage collector items, going the way of vinyl?

I think I'm quite obsessed with my new American Apparel petticoat/tutu.

Visited a friend for her birthday back in the town where I go to school. Is it just me or does going back to school feel like such a draaaaaaaaaaaaaag? I haven't even bought my books yet. Fail.

Lollaplooza. Was. Amazing. I'm so glad I went. I finally got my Hot Chip nut busted, and it felt amazing. Also saw Wavves, Los Amigos Invisibles (per my friend's request), Raphael Saadiq, Devo, and Lady-freaking-Gaga.



This is the Dee and Ricky DIY imitation that I finally got done! After I ordered the correct LEGO pieces, I put it all together. My friend hipped me to the idea of building one instead of buying the $50 version. Va$htie Kola also made a black cross version that I'm sure I could do. Will get on that soon. I just need to figure out how to get a pin on the back without it looking tacky.

Did anyone else go to Lolla???

I got a job finally. Normally, I feel like dressing even remotely cute constitutes the Wocka Flocka clones at my workplace ogling you and asking you for numbers they don't even deserve. (Some of them have kids.) Then I realized that they'll ogle you regardless. Seriously. Guys will hit on you even if you have dog shit smeared on your face. Not really sure that anyone would ever have dog shit smeared on their faces, but still.

They have come.

I ordered them weeks ago, and I feared the worst.

Maybe they just forgot about little old me. . .

Maybe they're withholding my order because they know I'm black and they're racist.

Or they ran out and didn't tell me?

But a lady told me that they were finally going to be shipped because they had run out and then re-shipped. Awesome business, right?

WRONG.

I get them bitches, and they don't even fit.

They were too roomy.

I thought, damn it. Just my fucking luck.

So I sent them back.

And I was very hurt.

Because I loved those shoes. I thought they loved me back.

But then......GASP!

They sent me another pair. . .

and by George, they fit!!!

I love them!!







Other things on my list?



Now let's just hope I can get some of that out of the way! Oh, and I forgot to put sequined leggings on the list. Argh. Whatever, I just know I need them. Badly. Like a Tripp NYC sweater or jeans. Or like a Fall Out Boy and a Panic! At the Disco t-shirt and poster. I'm rambling now.

By the way, did anybody hear Kele Okereke's new song? He's the lead singer of Bloc Party, and he just went solo. I love "Tenderoni!"
