General Wisdom

"You know, Sammy, I'm sure she's unique and extraordinary, but... the general wisdom is that, in the end, there isn't just one person for each of us."

Run

We run, laughing and barefoot through the scaffolding, leaping over bars as the clock counts down to zero.

Chewie and Han

This t-shirt is absolutely brilliant. If I ever have the money to spare, I'm definitely buying it.

Please Don't Go

Very fun to swing to.

Pitter Pat

Pitter Pat - Erin McCarley

Pitter pat, the angel on my shoulder
Is haunting me tonight
Tick tock, the clock is getting louder
Ready for me to decide

Air Mail

Hello darling,
Here is the letter I promised you when I arrived here. Here is quite a strange place, full of queens in shiny paper crowns and white dresses. Sizes seem to be off proportionally, and everyone is always so frantic. It's quite odd, I assure you. I miss you terribly darling, and I wish I could be with you or you with me.

For You

His eyes flash darkly and the manic grin stretches wider across his face as he spreads his arms wide, gesturing to the destruction raging around them.
"Look what I've done," he says, teeth gleaming dangerously in the fire. "Look what I've created."
You just stare, wide eyed at the chaos and the crumbling towers before finally meeting his shadowed eyes. A strangled "Why?" manages to escape through your horror, as you clutch at blood soaked cloth with both hands.
Bending down to look you straight in the eye, power raging through him, he whispers with such devotion it breaks your heart, "I did it for you."

Brock Davis

"I think it's important to not be afraid to fail. I have a lot of ideas, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I just keep trying until it works and I learn from the times that it does not. I also think it's good to always be a student. Absorb as much as you can, be a student of art, design and popular culture."
-Brock Davis

Mehndi Inspired Cookies

Genius? Time consuming? Lovely?
I think so.

Paris


She wakes you up at four o'clock in the morning, grinning like Christmas, to whisper that she wants to go to Paris.

I Believe

“I believe in making mischief & the triumph of magic over the brute. I believe in short skirts & lip gloss & bringing the radical self-love revolution. I believe life doesn’t have to be serious, that you create your own reality & that beauty is all around us.”

ShapeShifter from Charlex on Vimeo

This is so well done, both in animation and in the script. A beautiful video.

Look

"Look what you've made me do.

I burnt down the world, for you."

The Day It Rained Forever

That day, it rained. The skies simply tore themselves opened and flooded the world thrice over, until everything was washed clean, shiny and new. Everything except for me.
The day it rained forever, you left me.

Heartbreak

“A heartbreak isn’t always as loud as a bomb exploding. Sometimes, it could be as quiet as a feather falling and the most painful thing is, nobody hears it but you.”

Blue Eyed

Adults would always ask what I wanted to be when I grew up. "Beautiful," I'd say, and they'd smile and laugh, assuring me that when I was all grown up, I would be. I'm still waiting.

Blue Skies

Before/After

Every morning they're there he goes out to get breakfast from the bakery, and when he returns they sit in the sun until the coffee's all gone. Afterwards they chase each other around the yard for a bit, laughing, their coffee cups forgotten on the windowsill.
And just for now, life is beautiful.

2012

“Two years ago it was the year of the cow in the chinese calendar and we had mad cow disease become rampant. We then had avian flu during the following year, the year of the chicken. This year was the year of the pig…and we had swine flu.

2012 is the year of the dragon. Oh god. It all makes sense.”

Can you play various instruments whilst laying on a frozen lake? I didn't think so.

The Sleep

She writes down everything that has ever happened to her in hopes that she'll be remembered once she's gone.
She hides herself away in book after book, and that way, she'll live forever.

Staring At My Dream

You think that no one knows, and that you can hide. Here's the truth darling, everyone can see exactly what goes through your mind.
...I'd hide that before everything burns.
