BUTOH




Butoh is an experimental form of japanese dance which is an amalgam of traditional japanese dance, classical european forms, and freestyle. i would love to see a performance, its incredible, and the images, even just stills are so beautiful. i was turned onto it because antony's recent album art features Kazuo ohno, a legendary butoh dancer. my ideal scenario right now is to hole up in a big pitch-dark room with a projector and ball up on a couch and watch hours of butoh films and eat cucumbers and drink iced tea.

OBLIVIOUS IN MECCA

"that girl has really stringy hair"
"that girl looks like she shops at the BX (airforce base version of wallmart)"
"that girl has a fake channel bag, jealous"
"why would people want to take a picture with her, weird, i wonder if it is a craigslist hookup"
"oh, AND SHE IS BRITISH, geez"

thoughts that went through my head before realizing that this girl was lilly allen and she was eating falafel just like me! at falafel king! on lake street!

hahahahhhahhahhyyewhoahaha!

NO, I CAN'T

I have found my passion. Spring weight jackets. I've read that people tend to buy the same five articles of clothing over and over again. I can't seem to own enough of em (spring weight jackets)! I found one that walks perfectly the line between masculine and feminine, classic and modern. THATS MY LINE. Also I think the ruching on the back makes it look a little like the wearer is actually shedding his human clothing because he is a monster in man clothes. The second most purchased thing for me is things that resemble monsters.

Its by a Japanese brand called "Creep." Carried by Urban Outfitters...




I also really want a good pair of summer dock-siders. The variations on this theme seem endless.
