balance .

the weather has been crazy lately. i don’t remember if the end of summer has always been like this, but the hot sunny days and vividly stormy nights really have me on my feet. right now it’s pouring outside and i’m just thankful that i got home before it all hit.

it’s almost as if someone up there just can’t quite figure it out. maybe they’re bad at making decisions. maybe they’re trying to figure something out. or maybe they’re waiting for something perfect that just won’t come along and in the meantime they’re attempting mediation.

so trendy .

got back into lookbook today after a break of three months (and having a life). the first thing i noticed when i got on was the massive increase in hypes, both of the hot/top pages and in general; almost as if membership exploded while i was away.

i don’t know how to respond to growing trends; usually i ignore them, and occassionally if a band i like gets famous i’m happy for them since they can make more money from their music.

but trends like fashion, and interest in stuff that are labled “indie” confuse me a little.

museum .

last night i dreamt about being taken hostage at a museum while the criminals went inside to steal things. there were a bunch if girls that were the hostages and some big men with guns (the shooting type) holding them at us. they took away our bags (i specifically remember my gold bag being dropped onto the floor below where i couldn’t reach) and had walkie-talkies to talk to the people inside the museum.

one of the girls next to me started crying because she was scared, but most of the others just tried to look insignificant.

kaching .

upon my commitment to return to university, i have found that i now truly know and understand the idea of being a poor student. i always thought that it only happened in movies; girls that strip to pay their college fees and boys that find out their girlfriends are strippers from going somewhere they shouldn’t be. fight ensues, as you can imagine, and etcetera, etcetera.

yet today, as i thought about my uni fees and the textbooks i must purchase, it all dawned on me: without parents, one is rather reluctant to purchase textbooks or pay for univeristy.

mustard .

i have fallen in love… with masterfood’s smooth and creamy dijonnaise mustard.

i first had it yesterday as i browsed the aisles of coles for something to go with my chicken that i knew would be dry. we made eye contact and i decided to give it a chance. but the moment it touched my tongue i knew i’d made the right choice.

since yesterday’s lunch i haven’t stopped thinking about it. i know what you’re thinking; it’s probably just a phase. tomorrow i’ll fall for tomato sauce.

capture .

she keeps forgetting to realise that it’s just a dream. every time she steps out she expects something more, but that something has never come.

until now.

is it a dream this time? is this just a result of the repeated scenarios running through her head? could she be controlling it all? was he really even there?

a knock on the door brings her back to reality. a glance at the time shows her a slice of the truth.

alias .

in real life i’m not really known as lizii. hardly any people call me that regularly; in reality my name is just a boring three lettered word. not that adding an i or two at the end helps that much.

lizii is my internet persona, and one which i have rooted pretty deeply, it seems. unlike my friends, you can not bring up any information on me if you search my full name. i think this may be attributed to the fact that i do not have facebook, but that is yet to be determined.

down the hill .

upon an extensive amount of reflection and the consideration of all three newton laws combined with the other laws of force in this world, i have come to a couple of conclusions.

i must admit they have also had a few external influences.

one. it is impossible to pick up an apple with your teeth from a barrel of water unless you corner the apple at the side of the barrel or if someone else is going for that same apple.
