Chris Weitz I'm Going to Kill You!!!


I can't believe he took over directing the New Moon Saga. I'm not sure what Summit was thinking!! The Golden Compass, Chris Wietz's, Weitz's, whatever, 'LIKE I GIVE A SHIT,' last movie, was a total FAIL. Why did they let him take over the Twilight Saga?
So I'm sure most of the people who love Twilight have already seen New Moon. I'm not really here to spoil anything for anyone I'm mostly just ranting on how crappy a job he did. I'm not going to lie, Twilight is cheesy, but Katherine Hardwick still did it successfully. Chris Weitz directed the film from the point of view of a guy who laughs at the books and thinks oh God, how gay is this? This is proven by the fact that there's a preview of the 4th film (sort of), where Alice talks about how she's seen the vision of Bella as a vampire in the future...do you know how this was depicted?
Edward is running in a forest, and from the right side of the shot, Bella comes running out of a bunch of trees in a floaty chiffon empire waist dress and flushed cheeks and joins him. OK. Floaty Chiffon dress with flushed cheeks = vampire? SHUT UP!!!!!!!
Can we fire him now? Should we start a petition to get him kicked off as director? Why did anyone think this was a good idea? It's a chick book. Why would you get some douche bag to take over this?

YAY FOR ME! BECAUSE...



1. This is my 101th post! I've actually not gotten so incredibly bored that I've abandoned this website altogether. A few years ago, this website would have been neon pink and built with one of those aol geocity, computer illiterate website builders. The letters would have been turquoise LOL.




2. I have had a disgusting couple of days because of my crazy neighbor. I am now accomplished and very important woman after filing civil harrassment order against her, restricting her crazy saggy titted (sorry for the profanity but she deserves every bit of it) racist S.O.B ass from ever coming near me and my family again. BITCH. A thousand curses to you. I would love to curse her worse than any roman has ever cursed another.




3. Am making some sort of progress on summer project and have decided to reprogram unconscious brain to focus and still have fun.




4. I am a believer in hope and the fact that I am a magical being, not of this human world and have been placed here on a celestial mission which I am partially sure has to do with creating beauty (good clothing, accessories, etc..etc...) which in turn generates happiness in its consumer which she/he passes on and so on and so on. I feel like a saint, no blasphemy intended. hehe. I just feel good!




5. I am obsessed with Arcade Fire right now. "Wake Up" is my life!!! It makes me want to run through some flower infested woods!!! I'm such a free spirit LOL.

Love Happens Sucks

Sometimes you don't realize how much you hate a movie until you sit down and write the review for it.

Love Happens
PG-13 (maybe G? Who the fuck cares, they only kiss once in the entire film)

Love happens or does it? If it were up to Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart to demonstrate this, it appears that it doesn’t. The film centers on the life of Burke Ryans (Aaron Eckhart), a self-help author whose expertise is overcoming the death of a loved one. Unbeknownst to his fans is the fact that though he is able to teach them how to deal with their sadness, he is unable to deal with his own. His knight in shining armor comes in the form of Eloise (Jennifer Aniston) whose presence forces him to come to terms with what he’s spent his life avoiding.

The trailer for the film basically explains the entire synopsis but the attitude of the film isn’t nearly as light-hearted as it would appear to be. Love Happens is a depressing and poorly written film disguised as a romantic comedy. Every moment of happiness is immediately foiled by the random surge of depression that just oozes from Burke Ryans. Sure he has a great smile and is fantastic at being charming; perhaps his character is suppose to be that way but it surely isn’t pleasant to watch. He mostly just comes off awkward when he’s not his public persona.

Even worse is the character of Eloise, pronounced E-loo-ise, whose quirkiness and free-spirited attitude is reflected in her physical surroundings but is absolutely unbelievable coming from Jennifer Aniston. Of all the annoying ways the writers have tried to make her interesting, the most annoying is the fact that she uses a lavender marker to write obscure words behind paintings at the hotel she provides floral arrangements for. Why she does this is never explained, it’s just written in to force an initial attraction to an otherwise boring woman. Why Jennifer Aniston was chosen to play the part of a “free-spirit” is a complete mystery. She is rigid and uptight despite the fact that she drives a live-action version of the mystery machine” from Scooby-Doo and does unpredictable things for Burke on their dates.

At this point, both the characters are boring, so maybe, just maybe they have a connection through their boringness. Unfortunately, even that is missing. Both Aniston and Eckhart get upstaged not only by their co-stars, Martin Sheen, Judy Greer, and Dan Fogler, they are also upstaged by a parrot. Yes, a parrot. It is the only part of the film where anything remotely happy happens.

Love Happens is actually only ten percent about the relationship between Burke and Eloise. Its mostly just about Burke and his internal struggle with awkwardness and not being able to handle his own issues. There is no love in love happens. Watch this film if you love extremely slow movies with a predictable plot, boring characters, and non-stop backdrops of hotel rooms, it’ll be the only love that happens in the screening room.

"I can't help but wonder"

Two of the designers from Louis Vuitton came to do a project with us early in the year. One of my research images included this picture of a Middle American bunny and I won't go into detail on what the rest of the research was about but basically I ended up with the idea for a woven sheer wire mesh with the LV monogram woven in, surrounded by a peeling colorful decaying leather.



1. research photo


2. my fabric sample illustration


3. Sample Louis Vuitton Bag Sketch

4. Love Magazine Issue 2, Louis Vuitton Bunny Ears, woven tulle Louis Vuitton Monogram

I have to say, its really cute and a job well done and maybe they didn't do it consciously but the fact that the designers came and did a project with us, and this came out afterwards kind of makes me wonder.....

Who Says You Don't Need Calculus In Day to Day Life?!

I hope some nerd who took calculus at school but ended up with a shitty bank job where he/she does nothing but count bills or do simple arithmetic all day gets the task of solving this equation. LOL. What is this guy's name? It looks like it says Pony Mr. Well Pony Mr, I think I'm in love with you. You're brilliant. If you were my boyfriend, I'd make you write me equations to solve for fun and to earn my affection!!
