Monthly Post - 4th Month Goth

Greetings!
I am sorry that I didn't post this two days ago as I should've, but I had extra work this week.

Anyhow, moving on.

I just realised that instead of being 'Goth' for 3 months it was actually 4, so yes. SKIP! :) I was feeling bored that evening so I figured I'd host a mini celebration even though I am over that excitement phase.

Uh...mostly. *Shifty look*

As usual it was incense, organ and candles, although I kind of ruined the atmosphere by gorging myself with chocolate and potato chips. *Ehee*

Since my stripy tights arrived a few days before, I wore them with a puffy skirt, white frilly blouse and patterned black coat all day, with my hair done up in a high Victorian bun.

*I had been hoping to wear my hair in a more down style but it does have it's evil moments and right now no matter what I do my hair forms itself into a puffy straight afro. So I just channeled the puff into a nice puffy bun. :D*

When I went out that evening for a bus ride to the store, it was funny as I saw people taking numerous glances at me. The best part though was that they were mainly staring at my tights. Moments like those just make me laugh so much...

For the evening entertainment I watched the Queen of the Damned and even though I haven't read the book, I didn't really enjoy it at all because the storyline is full of loopholes!

(Yes, that's me. ULTIMATE movie/book critic. It's rare for me to actually kick back, relax and watch a movie without noticing it's various errors, however minor they are.)

Stuart Townsend makes an okay vampire, (But from what I've heard about it, he made a very poor Lestat) but the whole storyline was cheesy and error filled....not to mention the "Twilightish" ending. 'He finds his girl, turns her into a vampire to save her life and they walk into eternity.' Ok, maybe I'm wrong about this, but that whole thing just screamed Hollywood/Twilight.

And the loopholes, well...there was just too much left unsaid, the storyline moved too quickly and left various bits unfinished.

Oh dear. I've gone and rambled on again, sorry about that! (For fans of this movie, do excuse me, I just have a very bad habit of critiquing.)

On a brighter note I also watched the Rocky Horror Picture Show and absolutely loved it! It was so funny and well done....I still have the Time Warp song in my head. :)

-------------------

I honestly can't say I made any huge improvements this month...besides forming better hairstyles and outfits than before.

Just today I picked up a corset shirt (Plastic bones :(), a crumpled white maxi skirt for summer Ice Goth look, and a couple of vertical striped shirts. All from the Op shop. :)

Well, I have little else that's good to say, and I need to go bake muffins anyhow.

Farewell!

I am the worst to watch movies with. In musicals, I sing along, in horror movies, I tend to yell "what are you doing you dumb bitch" a lot, and in dinosaur/history-based anything I tend to shout "WHAT THAT'S NOT EVEN LIKE IT WAS WHAT". Particularly with Victorian era costuming and raptors not having feathers. And yes, those are the only sorts of things I watch (other than sci-fi :P ). I haven't read Queen of the Damned yet, but i know it's far better than the movie.

The movie somehow gives even more sex visuals than my imagination.

@Sary: I'm ordering it online now, should be a great read. :)

@Kitty: Yay thanks for following! I did that a lot too, until mom threatened to throw me out from the living room...I shut up but I came back with a lecture on how bad it was the next day. :P
