greek mythology.

according to greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs, and a head with two faces. fearing their powers, zeus split them into two parts; condemning them to spend the rest of their lives in search of their other halves.

harem pants and coral.

the proportions with the cropped shirt and harem trousers may be complete balls, but we could always have this or another white t-shirt as back up.

I DON'T KNOW WHY ALL THE TREES CHANGE IN THE FALL.

i'm five years old it's getting cold out i've got my big coat on
i hear your laugh and look up smilin' at you
i run and run past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides
look now, the sky is gold
i hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home
i don't know why all the trees change in the fall
but i know you're not scared of anything at all
don't know if snow white's house is near or far away
but i know i had the best day with you today
i'm 13 now and don't know how
my friends could be so mean
i come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
and we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
and we talk and window shop 'til i've forgotten all their names
i don't know who i'm gonna talk to now at school
but i know i'm laughin' on the car ride home with you
don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
but i know i had the best day with you today
i have an excellent father his strengh is making me stronger
god smiles on my little brother inside and out he's better than nothin'
i grew up in a pretty house and i had space to run
and i had the best days with you
there is a video i found from back when i was three
you set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talkin' to me
it's the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarves
my daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
now i know why the all the trees change in the fall
i know you were on my side
even when i was wrong
and i love you for giving me your eyes
staying back and watching me shine
and i didn't know if you knew
so i'm takin' this chance to say
i had the best day with you
today

DESERT ROSE.

I HATE THE WAY...

i hate the way you talk to me and the way you cut your hair

i hate the way you drive my car i hate it when you stare

i hate your big dumb combat boots and the way you read my mind

i hate you so much it makes me sick it even makes me rhyme

i hate the way you're always right i hate it when you lie

i hate it when you make me laugh even worse when you make me cry

i hate it when you're not around and the fact that you didn't call

but mostly i hate the way i don't hate you not even close

not even a little bit

not even at all

it might be the coziness or the playfulness or the fact that most of the f/w 09 collections i have seen i don't like very much, but marc by marc jacobs just got upped on my favourites list. i love the colours, the layers, the tights - maybe not the shoes in some cases (those furry ones are a bit oh-eer) but i'd love to just splurge on these clothes if i had the money. especially the striped pieces - like the third jumper. yes, it's a man's jumper, but that doesn't particularly matter; relaxed fit, anyone? that's probably one of my favourite pieces in this collection.
