Rockabilly Queen

Brendan sent me this video this morning, of Wanda Jackson, "the orginal rockabilly queen"

Her dress reminds me of the one I wore to the launch!

i'm way too excited about life

Guuuuys! This past week has been so hard.
I produced 31 pages of academia in 7 days.
No big deal.
Anyways, enough talk about school.

This week Sarah and I launched our magazine! We have been working on it since January. It's turned out to be a smutty, sex positive, queer positive, radical, perverse collection of Concordia student art, poetry, short stories, photographs etc.
The launch party was at Il Motore and the whole night was a freakin blast from beginning to end.
This is what I wore:


Dress: Borrowed from Becky (purchased at H and M in October) Thanks Becky!!
Shoes: Payless
Tight: American Apparel (bought them last week - they have already shredded to bits, the damn things)

When I saw the finished product, I said, "Oh my god. I feel like I just gave birth!" Not that I would know. I'm being metaphorical. Obviously. I had so much fun working on it with Sarah. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had! I will post pictures of the artwork soon!

Spring Fever

This is the brightest (and most obnoxious!) spring outfit I could find - the objective: to represent my happiness regarding the warmer weather! Too bad I have to stay in to write papers for the next 100 years (2 weeks) of my life.

Early bird eats the worm?

I am a huge nerd and have been looking forward to course registration day for a few months now. I woke up at 5 am this morning, ready to craft my third year of university. Why do I care so much? Well for starters, I devote a lot of time to each class (going to it, writing papers, studying for exams) and when you work it out, each class costs about $50, so I want to get my money's worth. I want to enjoy my classes, so that I can appreciate the fact that I am receiving a unique education in a city that I love. In fear of sounding preachy and annoying, ill just say this: There are some people who love school and some people who hate it. What works for me, might not work for you. But regardless, I am so excited by my classes next year!!!

-AIDS: Aspects of Pandemic (lectures, workshops, and volunteer experience contribute to grade)

-Creative Writing Workshop: Drama

-Creative Writing Workshop: Writing for Children (I took a year off from writing workshops and am excited to get back in there!)

-A World of Food: Geography

-History of 20th Century Fashion (HOLY SHIT SO EXCITED)

-The Graphic Novel

-And I cant decide between Feminism, Race and Racism OR Sexuality in the Performing Arts

Heres a picture that I took of myself before school from a few weeks ago:

I look really tired in this picture, and its likely that I really was. Deragh says the shirt reminds her of the lizard for The Rescuers Down Under. I would have to agree.
