why yes her head's fine

there is nothing going on in my life today. nothing out of the ordinary, anyway. so i think i'm going to stir the doldrum that is my being and create a whirlpool of non-issues and inanities.

to start off, lemme just say that donning a uniform everyday is curtailing my sensibilities and creative juices. and so i give props to the inventors of accessories, scarves and coats. thanks to them i can dress my uniform up and still look decent. a challenge, i must say. hahaha. and oh, green is the new black. learn it, live it, love it.

and haha, because i can't go wrong in a uniform [??], i know better to castigate major fashion faux pas i encounter daily.

dress code disaster number one: print on print. now, there are some people who can pull this off so if you are not one of them, please spare the trial and error and save yourself a little dignity. polkadots [large, obvious ones] don't go too well with equally bold and bright stripes. if your stripes are teensy weensy to the extent of using a microscope to see the print, then go ahead wear it with other prints. as long as, of course, they have the same tone or hue as the other.

dress code disaster number two: bandannas. it's perfectly fine to put on bandannas, definitely adds color and style. but bandannas tied around your head to make you look like naruto is a bit off. reminds me of dao ming su in meteor garden... in 2003! clearly, the look worked well for him [but it was tacky nonetheless] but he was gwapo so he got away with it. but you, you're not.

dress code disaster number three: me in a uniform.

dress code disaster number four: clothes that make you say, "eep! what is that hideous thing?" especially when it comes from a designer label. you see, nice clothes don't have to cost much. just because it says [insert designer's name here] means you have to grab it since you can afford it. it's a formula for disaster.

that didn't cheer me up. i'm still boring myself to death! rawr.

in other news, as i was crossing the street yesterday, a motorbike which came from nowhere, cut where i was walking. and like any sane, decent person would do, i growled at the biker. as in catlike, rawr with my right hand poised like a furious feline about to strike. yep. my definition of normal exactly.

oh incoherence! i know thee well!

i was thinking of an adjective that would best describe me. the challenge is to come up with a word that starts with the same letter as my name. duh. [this was the GTKY thing jeri used for his class] not only can i not  find an adjective that starts with the letter x, i also cannot find any adjective that goes with xaris. i do declare, xaris is a stand alone noun. it cannot be described by any other word. its essence cannot be encapsulated! ahahaha. not even a lexicon master can begin to describe xaris.

holler like a banshee and raise your left foot if you agree.
awe yeah.

what's the story morning glory?

no fail plots that will sell from generation to generation: the cinderella story [the pretty api apihan girly who goes from rags to riches], the ugly duckling tale [the late-blooming duckling/lass who becomes beautiful in her time], and the sound of music scene [the musical tale of a single lady who takes care of some widower's kids and ends up marrying into the family].

there is no way i'd be in a cinderella story. number one: i am better off as the wicked stepsister and the big bad wolf rolled into one [oh wait, cinderella did not have a bad wolf, errr]. number two: i am not nice, i don't do chores when i'm told [i do it when i want to]. and number three: please, i don't need a fairy godmother to tell me what to wear.

i'd definitely consider the ugly duckling role except that even at the "ugly" stage, i act like a swan owing to my over personhood. i think i'd make a bad ugly duckling since they are meek and mild and wallflowers. that is so not me.

as for lil miss nun thrown out of the nunnery, well, i think i'd like her story best. she literally sang her way into the hearts of a family who badly needs to get a life. that would work except that i don't exactly want to marry a widower with children. but i'm all for the musicale quality of the package.

life would be a lot better if people will suddenly get into formation for a random dance number. like say, walking down the street and everyone just joins in for a song and dance production number. i find it interesting to have spotlights everywhere i turn. and the moment i feel something is a cue for another number. much like high school musical.

and every time we hear an augmented music, we know danger's lurking. parang yung sa mga horror films. oh. i could live with that. :) haha.

i've been meaning to tell a story, mine of course, BUT i figured there's really nothing to say. i could make one up, i should be famous for it, tcchh, that's just pathetic, isn't it?

tapos novel.
tapos screenplay.
tapos series.
tapos, ohoh yeah, i'd be as rich as jk rowling.

hahaha. i hope a story comes soon enough.
