Review - Lana Del Rey - Born To Die
Six months ago, nobody knew who Lana Del Rey was. Last October she released a grainy self-made music video for her single, “Video Games,” and the Internet exploded into a Lana Del Rey shrine. But, like a dysfunctional relationship, the adulation rapidly descended into suspicion, and Del Rey’s shrine crumbled into a mean heap of ridicule and backlash all before her debut album, Born To Die, was...

Let’s hope the virgin between your breast Is indeed what looks like a necklace :)
Haha it is!
This was a gift from my mother, who is deeply religious. To her chagrin, I am not religious at all but I wear this because I think it’s rather beautiful and because it makes me think of my mom. I...

You know, if you keep telling me things like that I might do something stupid like get a new one.

I just realized having a picture of part of my signature on Tumblr isn’t very smart. Or maybe I’m just paranoid.

slam it
For all you slam poetry junkies out there, here is Phil Kaye. He and Sarah Kay, slam poets and founders of Project V.O.I.C.E., came tonight to UCSB to host and perform at a slam poetry contest.
I like slam poetry and sometimes I even love it, but I don’t actively listen to it, and I had never been to a live, flesh and blood, slam poetry reading until tonight. It was fucking awesome....

I put on make-up and did my hair thinking I was going to go out, but now I just look good while watching Jurassic Park and eating blueberries.

The only time I had sex while my roommate was in the room was for birthday sex. She used that right this morning. I wanted to say “congratulations”, but I figured that would only make it weirder.

Counselor 1: It reminds me of van Gogh.
Me in my head: Yeah, crazy.

My writing professor suggested this article, in which, author, Pico Iyer, both laments and protests the slow death of the long sentence in the writing world today.
It’s an interesting phenomenon, the short sentence—the 140-characters, the quick text and the even quicker emoticon. Although I think short sentences can be powerful and vivid when used correctly (Ernest Hemingway; William...

the distance between two lines
I can’t wait to quit my job. A part of me feels ungrateful for saying so after I spent countless months searching for one. Week after week over summer I went to student resources at the library to check in on whether my application had been looked at. Then I was ecstatic when I did get the job. I thought it would make me happy—fulfill me in some way. But who am I kidding? I just needed the...

Each time I try to fall asleep, I’m jolted by some nightmarish vision. Once I am asleep, I dream of somebody commenting on how I smell, or telling me that my smell reminds them of something they used to know. I just want to sleep like a normal person.
A woman once told me that I had gumption for drinking bourbon after eating ice cream. All I’ve ever wanted was gumption.
