wishlist: aa cape

favorite eyebrows

i love large, dramatic eyebrows. i hate this current trend where most eyebrows are way over-tweezed, or even worse - clownish, drawn-on eyebrows.

mill on the ability to be happy

Whoever supposes that this preference take place at a sacrifice of happiness - that the superior being, in anything like equal circumstances, is not happier than the inferior - confounds the two very different ideas of happiness and content. It is indisputable that the being whose capacities of enjoyment are low has the greatest chance of having them fully satisfied; and a highly endowed being will always feel that any happiness which he can look for, as the world is constituted, is imperfect.
-john stuart mill's utilitarianism 1861

la passion de jeanne d'arc


this is a scene from vivre sa vie but the full version of la passion de jeanne d'arc can be found here.

a few of my favorite things: 24oz of corona


so far i've been this has been the only thing i've bought since i've turned 21.

birthday presents

my boy buys the best presents ever, it's because he knows me better than anyone. for my bday he got me (a bunch of stuff i don't deserve):
he upgraded my old, banged up macbook to a brand new aluminum one.

aa fingerless gloves

aa tie dye shirt in stingray (on the chick online it looks purple but the guy's picture is more accurate because it's actually a very nice grey)

he fixed my poor little koala, which he got for my birthday 2 years ago but the loop on his head had broken off

& a gift certificate to miss la de da's (just ignore how tacky their website is) which is the best place in the world for vintage jewelery, their collection is just overwhelming .
