Evan Rachel Wood

I think Evan Rachel Wood is really quite pretty. Sometimes it's very pretty, sometimes a subtle pretty. She has a very nice face on the whole, but it looks weird at times. Well, I think she's a really GREAT actress. She's just 21 and she's had very memorable roles in very memorable films. 'Across The Universe' in my opinion, was her best.
I still don't get why she was with Marilyn Manson though. Luckily they broke up. Heh. His music's pretty good though, unfortunately. But I can't imagine why she'd date him. Also, after she started going out with him, she became this weirdo - trying too hard to dress up like that odd Dita Von Teese. I honestly wouldn't wanna dress up as my boyfriend's ex-girlfriend just so he can be reminded of her constantly and just feel like a mere replacement. I mean, Evan went from blonde sweet-looking pale girl to wannabe-Dita-goth-girl, pale retained.
Anyway, I was just randomly looking at pictures of her and decided she'd prettify my blog up a bit. I wish I was as skinny as she was and half as pretty. I also wish girls didn't have that whole huge jealousy thing, I hate being jealous. I need to lose weight though, everyone seems to think so too, ha. Glah. Okay enough about me, let's look at more of her shall we?

The 'No-Lifer'

Heh. Sounds like a pretty good title for a book doesn't it? Apart from helping mum out at the office now and then and baking christmas goodies, I've been pretty much rotting. Everyone seems to be away or about to go away or out clubbing and taking pictures so everyone can see they're ''cool''. Sure, drinking's fine, but I don't think it's cool to throw away 200 bucks in one night, especially when you're just 17. You have your whole life to fuck up your brains and heart. I've seen my father drink enough to know it's not a pretty thing. Smoking is even worse. I think it's particularly disgusting for a girl to smoke. Girls are supposed to smell good and possibly give birth one day. Smoking is something that turns me off, badly. I know i'm no saint, but, I know my limits. I'd like to be my age till it comes a time when I'm 30 and start wishing I was 17 again. I just re-wrote this education story 3 times, spent all morning trying to recover from a bad flu, and taking down 'healthy' recipes to try and get a better eating pattern down in an attempt to shed the extra inches. My freedom is very limited now. My aunt is a pain in the ass. She won't leave the house, not even for a second and it is somehow my duty to stay home with her and keep her ''company'' when all she does is piss me off.

Oh it appears it's time to go.

Let's hope that Addy and baking make my holiday a little better. I'll miss you Maggie. Come back soon.

Oh, Anna's back tomorrow. It was a sudden decision. Hope she's okay. Didn't sound good on the phone.

Internet Surfing

So I've been entertaining myself a lot on the internet. I've been shopping online, joining random forums, you-tubing, watching shows, reading and blog-reading. I'm choosing which latest 'Nancy Drew' Game to buy now and watching episodes of 'Inanimate Alice' - weird but interesting - let the copy-pasted synopsis inform you more - 'Inanimate Alice' tells the story of Alice, a young girl growing up in the first half of the 21st century, and her imaginary digital friend, Brad.

Over ten episodes, each a self contained story, we see Alice grow from an eight year old living with her parents in a remote region of Northern China to a talented mid-twenties animator and designer with the biggest games company in the world. -

So there. For you curious souls, this is the link: http://www.inanimatealice.com/

Also, I was reading the latest 'CosmoGirl' and saw this little snippet showing this Vegan Photo-Blogger and her novel delectable-looking recipes. Her pastries for Christmas are to die for. Go take a look! http://bittersweetblog.wordpress.com/

ALSO,

The past two days have been relatively eventful, apart from the fact that my aunt has been eating my head off (AND SHE'S ONLY BEEN IN TOWN FOR 5 DAYS, BIOR [BELIEVE IT OR NOT]). WELL, day before yesterday, I decided to be good and stayed home with her. We rented a DVD, a classic musical, called 'Seven Brides For Seven Brothers', which was, I must say, thoroughly enjoyable. I'm a sucker for old musicals. Despite how modern I might be, it's always fun to escape into a carefree, happy, easy-going world, or anything else that's a huge contrast to the world we live in now. Yesterday I went for the 'India Se' organised talk by actress and director, 'Nandita Das', who was in Singapore for 'The Asian 1st Film Festival' or something along those lines. She won best actress, best screenplay and best director. Pretty impressive. She spoke intelligently and I liked how she was forward thinking and modern yet so simple. I loved how she was dressed and her strong, questioning but delicate, non-violent outlook on everything. She is pretty much someone I'd love to be, but it's just not possible, what with all the feisty-ness I seem to have inherited. Haha. Blame it on the genes! =] Okay part of it may be because I'm a Leo, but whatever. Heh.
Anyhow, after that I met Addy for a bit and then went home and ate and changed and slacked. Then Addy called up saying to come for Akanksha's birthday party at Timbre, so after much persuasion, I convinced my mum to let me go (She wasn't happy at the fact that I was invited so last-minute and that my aunt was here and that I apparently hadn't spent enough time with her and that she and father had just come home after a tiring day at work and would have liked to spend time with me and some other drivel like that). Sid came later too. The pizzas were dee-lish but very expensive I must say! Anyway, alls good.

So, like I said, I'm just doing the aforementioned now and I think it's time for me to make a little phonecall. Teehee.

What's with the world?

I've been doing my fair share of reading these few days and I find that the world we live in now is one where I would definitely not want to bring up another generation of people (i.e my children). There is chaos of every denomination unraveling EVERYDAY! No wait! Every MINUTE! EVERY SECOND! I don't want my children to live in a world where they have to fight like savages for everything, where they are starved of the very pure air, surrounded by crisis and diseases, taxes and crime AND TERRORIST ATTACKS. I don't understand why terrorists can't just see the world is in a bad enough state and if they really wanted their message to get across to people, they could start with educating themselves a little and not letting their radicalism get to their little insensitive heads. HUMANS ARE SUPPOSED TO EVOLVE WITH TIME NOT RECEED BACK INTO THE STONEAGE. It's the 21st century for crying out loud and we're still at each others' throats, still concerned with the littlest things in life that people should have got over a few hundred years ago. (LIKE CASTE FOR EXAMPLE). What the hell? Shouldn't people be worrying about other things, like GLOBAL WARMING or THE SAFETY OF HUMAN BEINGS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF GETTING ALONG WITH PEOPLE OF EVERY RACE AND RELIGION? So WHAT if I marry a Chinese or an African or a European? So what? Its not like caste is going to solve the world's colossal amount of problems. SHEESH.

Anyway, before I continue this potentially dangerous (for me) rant, let me recommend some sites for you to look through:

Hope you have a good weekend.

Lots of love and luck to this world we live in,
