Tell me I look stunning and cadaverous

It is that mad passage of time again. When the dreaded exams come to visit. Everyone locks themselves away and doesn't emerge, except to eat or go the bathroom. I think I've spent about 120 hours in the library this week. But at least I am not spending money like a mad man going out.

When I become addicted to a song, it's usually either a really slow, growing-on-me process or it's a snap decision, where I will listen to the 23 times non stop in a row.

Two songs I've recently discovered on my computer, "Twilight" by Elliott Smith and "Generator^Second Floor" by Freelance Whales. And my addiction to them both, works in that order.

In an attempt to delay study for a few more minutes, here are some interesting pictures I found off weheartit.

These Crayola sculpture are by artist Diem Cheu. It reminds me of when I was younger and my uncle hired a new chef for his restaurant. This guy had come straight from a few years in a five-star hotel and he used to do the same kinds of sculptures with carrots. He did phoenixes, landscapes and patterns. They were so beautiful.
Such a delicate, gorgeous tattoo. I'd have to find something like this before I ever got one I think. I'm ever so slightly put off by the pain factor? I have a pretty low threshold.

This was my friend Anna's 'Around the World' 21st. It was so much fun! I love Katie's Mexican costume.
This was a photo my friend's boyfriend took of us. It did have a fresher girl in the middle of it, but I sneakily photo-shopped her out. It was taken at the end of summer. I wish it was summer again already.

I love that tattoo! I don't think that you should be too worried about the pain on an area like the forearm or shoulder or something. It's more about WHERE you get it, I think. I wish someone had told me that!
