never underestimate me.

I am pretty damn resilient.

Not to mention heartless when it comes to certain situations.

Comes in handy.

Generally, I am unimpressed by most of you "men" out there. And if for a second in time, you have managed to tickle my fancy in some way, I find that I always end up disappointed by some flaw of yours. Disappointed, bored and quite annoyed by your existence. Before you try to use some lame line on me, can you please try to get to know me better first? ME. Not my face or my lips or my ass or my skin or whatever your perverted mind is thinking about. And when you try to get to know me better, can you please refrain from constantly bragging about yourself? How about start off with asking me questions about myself? That's a new concept, isn't it? It's not that I don't wanna hear about you. Can you just please wait until you actually have something to show for yourself? Maybe THEN I will pause to think and realize maybe, just maybe, you aren't such a waste of space after all.

Why do I keep coming across the same guys over and over? Self-absorbed, self-centered, vapid, disgusting, not-headed-anywhere-in-life guys whose egos are bigger than their dicks.

Harsh it may seem, but my opinion is only my opinion. I'm sure there are females out there dying to make your acquaintance, or to make your bed in the morning.

reading list.

Note to self:

Must add to reading list Haruki Murakami's South of the Border, West of the Sun, per Take's suggestion.

dvf quote from "influence."

"Life is about giving, you know? That's a lesson I can give. It's a luxury to give. And even if people take advantage of you a little bit, it's okay. And you have to learn not to get into something that you don't understand. You have to be careful whom you give money or your time to. You should always understand. You're totally capable of understanding everything."

- Diane von Furstenberg

worst news of the year.

Sorry, Radiohead fans. The band won't be releasing any more full-length records. In a recent interview, the group's lead singer, Thom Yorke, said: "None of us want to go into that creative hoo-ha of a long-play record again. Not straight off. I mean, it's just become a real drag. It worked with In Rainbows because we had a real fixed idea about where we were going. But we've all said that we can't possibly dive into that again. It'll kill us."

my friend sent me this conversation.

My friend is living in Beijing right now and he sent me this conversation he was having with a local girl about learning English/Chinese... It is quite possibly the funniest thing I've seen all week. (He's the "T")

i'm just gonna say it.

Fake lashes.

Girls who wear them, I have a bone to pick with you.

Girls like you make girls like me look bad.

Seriously, for all the times I get asked if I wear fake lashes, how many more people are getting by without asking and actually thinking my lashes aren't real? Not cool.

On a nicer note: Most of you are seriously beautiful as is. Fake lashes are beneath you! Trust.

Rad Hourani, one of my favorite designers, also happens to have the coolest videos on his YouTube page. This one: so so rad. Pun intended.
