new year

music: Daniel Johnston


I worked until 2 am and rang in the New Year with my coworkers at Theo's. It is like one big happy family.
I am so grateful to finally have a job working with decent people. Max got home today, he FINALLY called yesterday appologizing for his uncommunicative ways. He was without a phone or the internet for the entire week. My brother is comming home tonight! I havn't seen him in a year and a half. I feel like I'm not excited enough. Maybe I'm just hungover. Last night I went to Lee's and drank a bottle of Rose. I saw an old friend and he gave me a beautiful, black, carved arrowhead. It is my new favorite thing.

Tonight I did my nails dark purple with gold tips, watched Brigette Jones' Diary as well as South Pacific and ate a delicious dinner ...steak being the main course, surrounded by a sea of roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and big, juicy, suculent mushrooms. YUM. I love my dad. He makes such delicious food. I guess it makes up for all the yelling and fighting and all that fun stuff that goes on between us. For some reason, lately I have been like OBSCENELY obsessed with food. I told Rodney this and he said it's because I'm in a new relationship, and that when your in a new relationship with someone you tend to just want to consume everything as well as the other person (figuratively speaking). This could be true, however, when I feel sad and lonely I eat aswell. Lol. Oh well, at least I'm not as heavy as I was in the summer! I'm a good 5 pounds away from that. By spring I should be 140 or less...It will just take a couple of fasts and persuading myself that food isn't something that should be constantly ingested and instead savoured. But I do love it so. Anyway,  Here are some pretty pictures of the Polynesian goddess from South Pacific. Her name is France Nuyen. She was such a beauty.

Inner Conflicts...

Dec. 30th, 2009 | 12:54 pm
mood: discontent discontent
music: Lily Allen


          I am training to become a server at this busy, greek restaurant downtown. I have never really served in my life. And it is fucking terrifying. I mananged to finally land some sort of a job in this town... and now all I can think about is how much serving sucks. I know I am just being a big baby. I guess it just angers me that I still am not working towards anything that resembles a career. Well I guess I am... I am trying to save up money to get out of this town, and work towards my goals. But fuck! SERVING?! Do any of you have any experience/advice in this field? Because quite frankly it scares the shit out of me. My next shift is on NEW YEARS EVE. Wish me luck. In other news, I am contemplating flushing my big fat bottle of Zoloft down the toilet. I don't want it to control my life anymore. I have already stopped taking it for the last 4 days and it feels great. My dreams aren't really that fucked up anymore and I feel like im beating the Zoloft withdrawals.

          Last night was really shitty. I didn't know that my ex boyfriend still had the power to induce intense anger in me. We got in a fight about how everytime we talk he is always trying to act cool and make me jelous. It also really pissed me off that he went into detail about this girl he's going on a date with and how she is "Jewish and becoming a Librarian" and he thinks that is his "attraction" to her. His loss because I think I am prettier than her. LOL. It just makes me sick a little. I really shouldn't care. I don't want him back or anything. Everything about him turns me off. So I have decided to refrain from being his friend for my own piece of mind. And he can talk to someone else about his vain escapades at the thrift store and about how all he does is "write and make art". James, you really have nothing to prove to me. I just wish you had at least one original thought in your brain. On top of all this, my actual boyfriend hasn't called me in three days... he is in Vancouver. Should I be worried?... should I take this as a sign that he doesn't want to take this as seriously as I have been? I know for a fact that he thinks I take everything too seriously. And if he knew how I really feel about how he hasn't called me in three days he would just say that I am freaking out and being too affected by everything. I really do wish I wasn't so affected and that I could just forget about him for the whole time he was gone and occupy myself with things of my own interest. BUT I CAN'T. It's just not that easy. Upon his return he will be going back to school for the semester... And I will be "his girlfriend on the side" type of thing. Because he will be really busy. It angers me that I'm not going to school or doing anything with my life. And that I'M not busy. I should just suck it up and do something and get on with it, right? Ugh! This entry has just been all belly acheing. Sorry, friends. 

                    To help me cope with all of these boy troubles I have been listening to Lily Allen's new album. I love it's brit pop simplicity and catchy melodies.. It is a total "get over him" album and gives me a sense of empowerment. This one's dedicated to the ex! Enjoy!

Spring 2010

mood: creative
music: Animal Collective

 Alexander McQueen

 
 Alexander McQueen has really outdone himself this
 season. As I am looking at the collection I am listening to Animal Collective's Strawberry Jam. Which would have worked wonderfully had it been used to showcase his futuristic yet animalistic creations as they strutted their stuff down the runway. I feel like I have been transported to a Jungle on another planet, in the year 4050, and Alexander McQueen is a King sitting on a holographic thrown and sipping champagne from a golden goblet embellished with blue crystals. His collection is pure genious. Something straight out of a psychadelic DMT trip of your wildest dreams. I really love the symmetrical patterns he used on his structured yet billowy frocks. They remind me of the symmetrical colours, shapes and sizes that are only found in nature, like a leopard's face, or a butterfly's wings. Reptile patterns were also used in these digitally printed dresses. And the SHOES. The shoes are out of this world. Steam punk meets sea monster meets space oddity. At times they even bore resemblance to lobster claws. Towards the end of the collection the models seemed to be going through metamorphosis into atlantis-esque mammal hybrids. His final garment was fitted on a model with elongated pointy cheekbones. She was decked out in a form fitting yet structured suit made from colourful, lustrous reptile scales.

a poem

Dec. 25th, 2009 | 01:39 am
mood: cold cold

 


Anxiety


Pitter patter goes my palpitating heart

muscles tighten, the stomach aches, the body

 breaks 

thoughts race through my mind like dozens of dying, rabid mice in a cage

sickness, death,

silence

death, death, death.

Time spins, and so does my head

the homeless are shooting up on the bus

irrational fears take over

adrenaline fuels the pain

 I hear only my thoughts

Nothing and no one can save us now.

music: cLOUDDEAD

Pacing aimlessly around my house on a friday night. Everyone is asleep. My dad, as usual, passed out on the couch, and my mother is sleeping upstairs along with my sister in the next bedroom. No friends around tonight. No Jack Kerouac because I lent "The Dharma Bums" out to Max. I now understand the need to be drunk while reading Kerouac because I am craving him now like never before. Feeling amorous and slightly buzzed. I am trying not to get drunk because I am saving my nerves for tomorrow night. Why do my weekends always end up being so fucking dull? I need a girlfriend to keep myself occupied. One that will do art with me and smoke cigarettes with me on my back porch. A girl to share secrets and experiences with. Because only another girl truly understands. A girl to tell me I'm pretty and worth knowing when I'm in a bad mood. Don't we all want that? I secretly crave the compliments that I am usually too shy to accept. I miss my best friends. Maybe I'll go read Lolita, or some Anais Nin since I am in a snoggy mood.

goodnight.

burning wax. arizona potato chips, "bloink", spice girls, aqua, the fiery furnaces, hitch hikers, god lovers, weed, pabst blue ribbon, separate beds, separate bodies?, delicious cheese, crackers and pickles, the hard carpet floor.

I need to start taking pictures with my new canon camera.
I would like to take portraits of my parents. And other's parents.
I would like to paint a giant portrait of you in your 80s hay days.



For christmas you are getting personalized paintings catered to your deepest desires and admirations.

Yesterday my sweet mother bought me my belated birthday present. A big bottle of the Lola perfume I've been wanting by Marc Jacobs!!! <3 Today in Kelowna I bought purple mac lip liner to go under my black lipstick, mineralized cover-up (also by mac) and a bra and lacey stay up stockings from La Senza. How I long for Victoria's Secret lingerie, or better yet, AGENT PROVACATEUR. But I live in Penticton and I do my shopping in Kelowna, which is the best I've got. I was in American Eagle with my little sister as she was looking for some tops, and I found a really nice faux fur vest. It was 60 dollars. I honestly cannot spend that much on a vest, let alone, spend that much at American Eagle. That store is fucking bullshit! So preppy and basically a big thrift store knock off. I realized I hate new clothes. The only times I buy them are if I need new pants, in which case I buy Cheap Mondays, or when I splurge on a nice new pair of heels, or a designer item. But that is rarely the case.

My sweet family... Sometimes I'm not sure if I can stand living another moment under the same roof as them, other times, I don't know what I would do without them. If I didn't have such a close relationship with them I might possibly be dead right now, or a whole lot more jaded. I love them with all of my heart, I am realizing that family is everything. And the only thing that sticks with you through your life until your last breath escapes your lungs (if your lucky enough). My older brother is comming back from Nova Scotia in early January, it will have been a year and a half since the last time I saw him. I miss him so much. I can't believe it has been that long! Oh, my dearest brother.

The other day I watched Wristcutters- A Love Story. It is one of the most romantic movies I have ever seen. What can be more romantic than meeting your true love in the afterlife and then waking up next to them realizing you have another shot at life. Gahhhhh so amazing! I love films and how they make me feel. They make me appreciate life like a poem or a song would.




You are going away for new years. I don't have enough money to go with...
take me with you? I promise I won't be too much of a bother. I just want to plant my lips on yours and claim you mine for the year, that's all.

I want a baby. is that bad?
If it is a girl I will name her Star or Siouxie
If its a boy, Sailor or Noah.
My inner feminist resents myself for this primal urge.

REPRODUCE REPRODUCE REPRODUCE!

you can't tell me that the thought of seeing yourself presented to you as a child is not one of the most beautiful and astonishing miracles that life has to offer.

I'm thinking of becomming a nanny. I would have to make sure that I get along with the parents and kids well though. It would be nice if the parents were really new age and the children had cool hippy/interesting names.

babies!

Hey Kittens, I was just thinking about how after adding all of you cool cats I can hardly remember what interests go with what person. You see my predicament. My friends list has doubled but I don't really know who you are!
Enlighten me.

My name is Claire.
What's yours?
Tell me a little bit about yourself
...The first thing you think about when you wake up in the morning...
do you like your coffee black?
A childhood memory, or a religious/non religious experience
That sort of thing.
Or just, whatever you feel like sharing...

drunk

mood: thirsty thirsty

we drank and drank and drank. it was like a highschool binge condensed into one night of excess. my dearest friend, you have to understand that my liver is not like yours. it does not feed on alcohol, instead fiercely rejects it. i smoked too many ciggarettes outside and told too many stories and confessions about myself. I guess I am guilty of wanting to weird people out. And what better way of accomplishing this then by just being myself. I met you outside. you said you wanted to date me. I didn't know what to say. she ignorantly pointed out that i was wearing a dead animal. Didn't you eat a dead animal today? At least I am using its fur for warmth and not just stuffing my face at mcdonalds. after spending 200 dollars at the bar, we decided it was time to go home. you called me a cab, payed for it, and i was on my way. The cab driver was smiling at me the whole time, either he was trying to make a pass at me or he was laughing at how inexplicably drunk i was. as we drove i prayed to god that i wouldnt throw up. by this time i was feeling beyond ill. i stumble in through the front door. my bedroom, still a mess. clothes, books, a stereo, and make-up litter the floor. fuck. i should have cleaned my room today. oh well I sit on my bead. I get a glass of water and go upstairs in hopes of drunken messaging. when i get there my head starts to spin. i begin to feel strange, dizzy. i realize i am too drunk to look at a computer screen. i get up and go back downstairs. before i know it i am puking all over my bed. all over the clean sheets i put on a couple of days ago and the duvet my mother gave me. this is the first time i have thrown up from drinking in years. I am sad. i feel guilt. i call elliott. and tell him about my troubles. i am sitting naked on my bed covered in vomit at this point. he hangs up. i take a shower. "i am never drinking this much again" i think to myself as the uncomfortable, hot water hits my face.
