This Is Halloween

Happy Halloween dears!!! :)

I have a fun day planned ahead of me...I'm having some close friends over, where we will trick or treat then stay up late watching scary movies!

My Costume is pretty average...all the things I wanted to dress up as basically showed wayy too much skin (Does anyone else feel how annoying this is...No one wears clothes anymore!!)

So...since I am a good girl ;) I decided to just gather up a bunch of things I have here at home and make a costume!




1. Funeral Veil from Hot topic
2. My Lolita dress
3. A Lace arm-warmer
4. mary-jane ballet flats
5. Lots of dark makeup

I haven't quite thought of a name...but I suppose if someone asks me, I could say a Widow...Or someone at a funeral? haha

Oh! I have also made a halloween playlist for me and my friends to listen to as we munch on candy :D

Click here to see it!

So this is a little gift to you! I've added lots of stuff from The Nightmare Before Christmas, a bit from an anime show I Like (Vamire Knight rocks!!) and the main theme for The Corpse Bride (which is also the main song on my blog)

So, tell me what YOU are doing on this fine halloween day?!

Fairytales...My Reality

Fairytales in a Different way, a Genius Indeed

Tim Burton.

I idolize him. I want to be a director one day...and his works make me dream in ways I could never imagine.

For my Tech Theater class, we have to do a project on a job we would want in Theater...I would've chosen actor. But instead I decided to choose Director. So we had to choose a famous director to use as an example in the project...so of course, it had to be Tim Burton.

Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Sleepy Hollow, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory (2005), The Corpse Bride, Sweeney Todd, and (soon to be!) Alice In Wonderland...are only a few of his masterpieces.

Each one of these works has inspired me, and let me see the world in a different way. He creates fairytales in a completely unlikely way

Of course a story about a gentle man, with scissors for hands who falls in love with a normal girl and ends up destroying things without meaning to, is not your every-day-fairytale. But it's still a fairytale, and it's still beautiful.

His facination with misunderstood, lonely characters breaks my heart in all his movies...happy or sad ending.

His haunting music and unforgettable scenes make his movies simply magical.

The way that his mind works is unlike ANYONE else which makes him just so special to me...Thank you Mr. Burton, for changing my life in the simplest ways.

One of the most beautiful scenes I have EVER seen in any movie.
It melts my heart and makes me feel as if part of me is in another world...

This is Tim Burton's first ever stop motion animation, and in fact, his first project EVER!
I love it with a passion as it is somehow very artistic, and of course has alot to do with Edgar Allan Poe.
It just shows how wild a child's mind is. How everything is just so big. And at the same time,
another strange character, which I love :)

So tell me who inspires you so very much!

It Was Only A Kiss

One of the best music videos I have ever seen!

It goes perfectly with the song...and something about it is just soooo magical...the costumes, The way the lead singer (Brandon Flowers) looks when he sings. He has an amazing presence!

Isn't is interesting how they made the girl look so innocent? With all the makeup, and the hair...and yet somhow you can just tell she's not innocent at all...

By far one of my favorite videos of all time...It feels like a dream. It's so symbolic. It brings back 80s music with a modern twist...which is genius.

I used to hear this song on the radio alot. But after listening to it over and over for the past hour, It's taken over me...and after seeing the video...It's like finding a whole new world.

"Jealousy
turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside"

Lullaby For A Stormy Night

"little child, be not afraid

though rain pounds harshly against the glass

like an unwanted stranger,

there is no danger

I am here tonight..."

"little child, be not afraid

though thunder explodes and a lightning flash

illuminates your tear-stained face

I am here tonight..."

"...and someday you'll know

that nature is so...

the same rain that draws you near me

falls on rivers and land, on forests and sand

makes the beautiful world that you'll see

in the morning..."

"for you know, once even I was a little child,
and I was afraid
but a gentle someone always came
to dry all my tears, trade sweet sleep for fears
and to give a kiss goodnight...


well now I am grown
and these years have shown that rain's a part of how life goes
but it's dark and it's late so I'll hold you and wait
til your frightened eyes do close..."


"In the morning...everythings fine in the morning..."

(Lyrics from: Vienna Teng- Lullaby For A Stormy Night)

Ten Million Fireflies

I had a dream that My mom was letting me fly out to Canada all alone to see a super special exclusive Fall Out Boy concert...I was wearing the most colorful outfit ever...I think it was something like a bit of a puffy skirt with a rainbow striped shirt and my Fall Out Boy shirt I got from the last concert on top of it.

Pete Wentz (the cool bassist :D ) was on my plane somehow...and he kept smiling and staring at me...then I talked to him very casually...

That was simply a small part of my dream...lots more happened but If I told it all, It would possibly take up a very very long post...

So, Yesterday after returning from a fabulous weekend with Bri...I realized that I am quite sick...

Today was supposed to be holiday from school...but of course the ONE time I get sick it has to be on a day off...just my luck, huh?

But since I will be home pn this beautiful Monday, what can I do for fun? Well Of course...drink my tea and listen to music!

so what music has been keeping me alive lately?

WATCH THIS WHOLE VIDEO AND FOCUS ON THE AMAZING LYRICS! seriously...It's soooo beautiful. Owl City is very unique and fantastic...I just recently bought his newest album, Ocean Eyes, from Target...go get one. It includes this song and many others.

If you like him, check out his songs: Vanilla Twilight, Fuzzy Blue Lights, Meteor Shower, and Rainbow Veins :) I linked each of them to a youtube video of the song!

So, I want you all to tell me what dreams You've been having lately and What music You've been into! Always suggest new music to me so I can feature it! And you know I love finding new artists! :)
