Things are good. I've been a busy little bee.

Dustin, Diego, and I are having a lovely Christmas together. He just leased this super nice apartment in Silverlake that was built in the '20s and has tons of character and is like .3 miles away from a dog park (WHHAAAT) and a pretty reservoir. Now I live in Hollywood AND Silverlake.



My two favorite awkward boys.


Dustin played Santa this year at one of my family's holiday parties and it was like Santa stand-up; my mom was crying laughing by the end of it. He was a hit with the family, and the kids adored him. The Santa costume (stuffed with pillows) on his skinny frame was fucking hilarious and one of the little 4 year old girls yelled, "SANTA HAS MANBOOBS". One of the little boys called him "34D".




I'll post one of the videos soon.


I just did a McDonald's commercial and here's to hoping they don't cut me out because seriously, I could use that money. I've been getting auditions so much that I've had to quit my part-time job because I've missed an hour of work EVERY DAY I'VE WORKED. That's good news, because A) auditions were really slow for awhile and B) fuck working retail. Balancing the two has been so crazy that at one point I was so tired I'm pretty sure I hallucinated an earthquake.

In other news, Dustin and I also painted my disgusting old beigey-green patio chairs. Still finishing the table, but here's what they look like now.



Originally we were gonna paint them blue, but then I changed my mind.
However, I couldn't bear to paint over it, so one of the chairs shall be blue.


ZHU ZHU PET HILARIOUSNESS )

P.S. I totally just got a pretty new 46" Sony flatscreen and a Netflix membership on my X-Box so UNLIMITED MOVIES IN HD FOREVER YES MY LIFE IS COMPLETE

oboken
exhausted and out of sorts
circles and coffee
ink, led, paper scraps
smiles, heartache, smoky rice and beans
rest, refuge, resistance
two weeks of immersion into the future of past

leave linger leave linger
thoughts and feelings
gingerly mixed with hastiness and resistance simultaneously

ribbons of lethary
swirls of energy
chunks of joy
creamy well spun sauces

there are buildings building
blocks growing and disappearing

faith and anger

poetry scrit upon fits of fallibilities
wurds i can't descruube
por que de su sentimientos,
no son iquales
pero diferentes
...un poco
por un ratico de cada dia
per esta bastante ya
estoy tratando a aprender este cosa
como se hacerlo?
no se
como se va?
no se
por que sali?
no se
volver a digame otra vez
que fuckin pasa?

handmade, home played, re played, blah blah blah blah
the sediment will sink after stirring to show clarity if you can just hold still...

movement. movement. always movement.

all you can do is wonder at it all as you keep moving,
or get swept up and away

Hello! My name is Ivana Stab. I’ll be 21 in February. I live in a middle-of-nowhere suburb, but thankfully it is located in Sydney. I’ll be starting my year of Honours early in 2010 to wrap up a Bachelor of Arts (Politics and International Relations). I make perzines and fanzines and sometimes write CD and gig reviews for various websites. Mostly I chain-smoke in Hyde Park and talk incessantly.

Once upon a time, I visited Livejournal religiously. Then it became a bit of a ghost town but I realised recently I really miss it. I’ve met lots of amazing people through this website; some of those people have become good friends of mine “in real life”. I discovered many of my interests and musical loves by stumbling upon them on Livejournal. I’m hoping things will become a bit more lively here so it’d be nice to meet some new people, hence this introductory post.

you’re not punk & I’m telling everyone )

Hi! I'm the founder, editor and owner of N.E.E.T. Magazine, an online magazine that showcases independent, handmade, eco-friendly, and vintage fashion and design!

www.neetmagazine.com


N.E.E.T. began in December 2005 as a quarterly, online publication, laid out in a magazine format - as a showcase for grassroots creativity. N.E.E.T. is the first of its kind - online, free and packed with everyone from a crafter creating from their kitchen table, to a fashion design graduate straight out of college, to a team of people doing it for the love of it.



BUST called N.E.E.T. "A box of tasty visual bonbons and a brilliant take on the magalog genre", Venus Zine said "N.E.E.T. is highly addictive.. you'll think you've stumbled upon NYLON's funkier, thrift-store chic little sister." and Katie White from The Ting Tings said in Elle that "Neetmagazine.com features all the best vintage clothes on the internet and makes them look special."



N.E.E.T. has just released its seventeenth issue which you can view online at: www.neetmagazine.com...

If you're a designer, artist, photographer, illustrator, creator, crafter, journalist and would like to contribute to N.E.E.T., then please email me with a link to your blog/site at: thefashionmagazine@gmail.com

I've been so nervous to do one of these! Lately, for some reason, I've felt like my life is completely monotonous and far from interesting. I'm incorrect. Definitely. )

The week before last I flew to Atlanta, GA for this big party being thrown to commemorate the 70th anniversary of my favorite movie, Gone with the Wind (no, I'm not one of those people who dress up in costumes, although I have been told I'd make a good southern belle...hmmm). There I met up with two friends from Warsaw, Poland, and we took a "gone with the wind" roadtrip through the South. It's something I'd wanted to do for years and years, particularly as this was my first time to that part of the US. Our route took us from Atlanta to Jonesboro, which is slightly south, and then to Savannah and Charleston and back. Savannah was my favorite--it's the definition of southern charm and the architecture is amazing (as is Charleston).

My main reason for wanting to go to Savannah was to visit Bonaventure Cemetery, which is referenced in one of my fave non-fiction books, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt (haven't read it? Recommended!). It was built on what used to be the grounds of a plantation, on a bluff overlooking the Savannah River. The cover of Berendt's book features a statue called The Bird Girl, which became so famous after the book was published that it was taken out of the cemetery and put in a museum.

Still, Bonaventure Cemetery is all sorts of creepy and amazing. So, I thought I'd share some of my photos.


Little Gracie Watson is one of the most visited graves in the cemetery. Gracie died from pneumonia when she was 6 years old, and a year later, sculptor John Walz carved this life-size statue from a photo taken shortly before she died. Her grave has become to popular that caretakers at Bonventure had to erect an iron fence around it to keep tourists out.

i love old cemeteries )
