Everything’s Crazy

You may have noticed that things have been a bit quiet around here as of late.

Things have been getting a bit overwhelming at uni (which may have results in a period of rage and a panic attack yesterday, which J was able to help me through thankfully), which has been made extra intense this semester because of the earthquake back in February. I’m really just not feeling much love for this blog at the moment. My focus is really elsewhere, which just results in a giant writer’s block.

So I’m going to take a break. There may be the odd post when I suddenly get inspired, but that will be it until this semester is over and done with, and things return to some level of normalcy in a couple of weeks.

Feel free to email me or hit me up on Twitter. The details can be found on the What’s This All About page. You could also take a look at the blog roll for other awesome blogs to check out, and of course, there’s the archives which can be found just to your right >>>>>>>>>>>>

I will still be checking both my email and Twitter at least daily, and I will be notified if you make any comments on any posts (which I would really appreciate by the way).

Much love to you all

HNT (On Friday): A Radical Change

I know it’s Friday already, late Friday even, but I just didn’t get around to doing this yesterday My Half-Nekkid Thursday contribution this week is far less risqué than some of my previous contributions.

I came across this picture while looking through my Google Reader earlier this week:

Apparently it’s called a chelsea-hawk.

So the idea mulled over in my mind for a couple of days, and after consulting my faithfully Twitter followers, I decided to do it!!

Here’s my new look:

I’ve done radical hair colours before, but this is my first radical haircut. I really like it, and the responses so far have been very positive

The hawk bit in the middle isn’t quite as long as I would like it, but it will soon grow.  I can have a fringe if I want too, I just need to straighten out the curl, which is easy enough.

It will be interesting to see/hear my family’s reaction when I visit Mum for Mother’s Day on Sunday.

I think my pink frames that I got at the same time as my black and yellow ones work much better with this style than longer hair, so that’s an added bonus

So what are your thoughts? Let me know in the comments section below.

Drowned Kitten vs. Fat Girl Smoking

On the latest episode of Bones (Season 6, Episode 19) there was a comparison game (I suppose) some new characters were participating in.

The first comparison was Sumari vs. Ninja and who was best, winner being Sumari. …um *cough* I mean samurai, but that’s not important, the next bit is >>>

It was the last comparison that I have… an issue with I suppose. It was which is more depressing and which is more sad, drowned kitten vs. fat girl smoking. They decided that the drowned kitten was saddest and the fat girl smoking was more depressing.

I feel like I should be offended by the “fat girl smoking” reference, but I don’t really know why. It just left me feeling offended and confused.

I did, however, enjoy the cinematography used in this episode, it was quite different and a nice change to previous episodes.

EDIT: I get why a drowned kitten is more sad, what I don’t get is why a fat girl smoking is even an option and why they considered it depressing.
