Random Post/New Year

Greetings!
Again, I'm sorry for not posting/commenting much, my mind has been in a state of haze...I feel like a lazy Gothslob, since December started my days have mainly consisted of sleeping and movie watching, just trying to keep myself above my depression/the foul Australian summer.

This year was quite hard, but at the same time it was needed. I had to grow up so much, and if all my troubles hadn't fallen on me I wouldn't probably have matured enough to become a Goth...

Although I am not at all looking forward to next year I will try to post and comment more often, maybe I'll even make a few more videos if anyone thought I was alright in the Accent Challenge. :)

Okay, well. I don't have much more to say, I just thought I'd write a little post, so see you later I suppose...

PS: Have a happy new year, and if you'd like to comment, perhaps share your year 2011's highlights/troubles?

Farewell!

Sort of Babybat Post

Greetings!

It’s been a long time since we had a ‘baby bat’ post, so I guess now’s the time to bring out some of my failures in the Goth world…and otherwise.

Baby bat Blues part 2:

As you might have noticed, I haven’t really been all that into posting lately and what I have done is pretty slack and might I say, boring? I say this because it appears that no one has commented recently, so either something is wrong with the blog (tell me if so) or my posts just haven’t been too good.

….Well, the baby bat blues portion for today is mainly a topic on self-esteem and depression.

Due to several reasons, for the past couple of months I’ve been quite depressed, well, this has been going on ever since my 3rd friend who I thought was going to be my FIRST best friend left me just like the first 2.

Maybe I’m just too different...When with people I have fun and all, but for a major part I’m just too ‘old school’ for most people’s tastes, and I have little interest in current events and entertainment.

Anyhow.

Due to this depression, I haven’t been all that experimentive in the ways of clothing and makeup, and due to my self-esteem issues I don’t really like dressing up these days. So, sorry about the lack of hair and makeup posts/DECENT outfit posts.

Note: Another reason is I think my sense of combining clothes is still pretty bad…a common babybat thing I guess.

Also I think I’ve finished the ‘Goth monthly celebration’ things, it was fun during the first few months, but now I’m not sure if I or anyone else appreciates them much. So, even at the big 6 month celebration, I don’t think I’ll be doing much.

Well, sorry for this rather bad post, I just thought you should know what’s going on.

Farewell!

Outfit Post - Alice Inspiration, with a special guest!

Greetings!

Here is the second outfit I have for you today, this one is not store bought, I formed it myself, bascially the inspiration is from Alice in Wonderland.

The special guest: My dwarf rabbit Crowley!

Outfit: White and black striped tights, striped vest, net shirt, black skirt, white petticoat skirt, black lace up ankle boots.

The outfit was thought of: Alice and the white rabbit.

HE IS TOO CUTE and CUDDLEY!!!

Note: Although I've been raising and breeding rabbits for 4 years, Crowley is a special lad. I found him running wild around the neighbors' yard, and since he belonged to no one, I took him as a pet. And the irony? I found him the day after we had watched Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.

Sorry this time I didn't get a decent shot of my makeup, I just got nice black eyeshadow today that worked a charm, and a nice dark red lipstick, that when composed with black lipstick gave off a nice purpley red color.

Anyhow.

Farewell!

Outfit Post - Medieval Dress

Greetings!

As promised, here are pictures of the new Medieval dress I just bought.

I wish it'd been black, but it's lovely nontheless.

The main gown is velvet with floaty sleeves.

The back

Front

Excuse this...I was just goofing off again. :P

Hope you liked this post, and due to the fact that I've been absent for awhile, I did another outfit today as well. I'll post that this evening.

Farewell!

Saturday Movie Review - The Woman in White

Greetings!
I regret to say that my first 'Saturday movie review' is a few days late, as unfortunately from late Friday night until just this afternoon I've been feeling terribly ill.

But, as I feel a good deal better now, I randomly picked a movie off of my list to review, here goes:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE WOMAN IN WHITE

Based upon Wilkie Collins Victorian mystery, the gothic tale tells of a pair of half sisters, Marian and Laura whose lives end up caught in a grand conspiracy revolving around a mentally ill woman dressed in white. As the story unfolds, murder, love, marriage, and greed stand between the two sisters and happy lives. Their only hope is the secret the woman in white waits to tell them.

I found this movie to be well acted, quite suspensful and it was a very good mystery plot. It's based in the Victorian times, but unlike many Victorian based tales, this one had a considerably darker asthetic, something I would liken to the general feel of 'Dracula'.

It shows quite a decent look into the treatment of women at the time, conspiraces, Victorian fashion, Victorian asylums, abusive relationships, and it would be well counted as a mystery murder story.

I give this movie a 9 out of 10, and I recommend you take a look if you're into this sort of genre.

Marian and Mr. Hartright

Well, I guess that's it for today. As soon as I'm really up and around there should be an outfit post/hairstyle post. Until then,

Farewell!

Long time Post - Hopeful end of Hiatus and Saturday Movie

Greetings, all readers.
Again, I'm sorry I haven't posted anything except Friday the 13th things in quite a while so I hope to be getting on well again with outfit posts (I got my Medieval dress yesterday!) hairstyles, monthly posts and a new addition of random movie reviews and room design and art posts.

And, even though it IS a tad silly, there will be talk of my miserable baby bat experiences.

I'm also putting up a little poll at the moment, so vote for your favorite topic on this blog to read about.

Okay, well that's the end of this mini post, later this evening I will post the first movie review post...I just need to pick a movie first.

Farewell!
