<br />
It's me! Back from hiatus. So, I have some exciting news.<br />
<br />
Some of you may know I write a script called the Pale Ones. It's about a band and myself living in one big house out in Iowa. It's really funny in a British kind of way. Well, a while back, the drummer for Al B Damned, Pip, took a look at it and proclaimed it 'hilarious'. So that was nice, since the characters were based of ABD. I was happy with that.<br />
<br />
And then Joe Crow took a look at it.<br />

Joe Crow. Who you may know as 'the guys she has salivated over for the better part of half a decade'. Well, Joe read it, thought it was hilarious, and I was happy. We became friends, and again, I was happy. But one day, I showed him the new episode. And he fell in love.<br />
<br />
With the script, dummy.<br />
<br />
And as it turns out, he wants to make The Pale Ones into a webseries! And he doesn't want to change a damn thing about my script!<br />
<br />
He wants to PUBLISH it!!<br />
<br />
AGHHHH!<br />
<br />
So needless to say, I immediatley agreed and that, my children is my superexcellent newsKody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-17569370587688390672012-09-24T10:22:00.001-07:002012-09-24T10:22:18.233-07:00Post about the CatAs some of you know, I have a cat.<br />
<br />
His name is Jason.<br />
<br />
And I love him so so much. He's black and white, very fat, and sort of an idiot but I love him just the same.<br />
<br />
I got him 4 years ago when I was 13 and going through some major crap. I was sort of a brat, and hating myself and fighting with my mom, but tiny Jason (he was so small back then) was always there. He used to claw the crap out of my hands and lick my ears. He thought I was great even when others didn't Even as an outdoor cat, his favorite place to sleep is wherever I have been recently, like this summer when I stayed in my sisters room. Jason would sleep on my bed, or come in while I was sleeping to cuddle with me.<br />
<br />
I can remember the first time he brought me a mouse. I appreciate the gesture, Jase, but I don't eat mice. Bad for my digestion. I can also remember when I taught him to kiss. I used to kiss him on his muzzle, one day I leaned in to pet him, and he bumped his nose against my mouth. It was the sweetest thing ever. Even now, he's still the most affectionate towards me, I think.<br />
<br />
He's been there for William's birth, for Tony's birth, for those times when I couldn't stop crying and needed a fuzzy pillow to cuddle with<br />
<br />
So here we are 4 years later, me in college high school in Las Vegas, he's with my mom in Colorado.<br />
And I miss him so much.<br />
<br />
I love you, dumbass. Please don't get mad when I bring home a Freddy for you to play with.<br />

<br />
"Did what?" Spencer whirled to face his brother.<br />
<br />
"You gave your number to that guy. Ian."<br />
<br />
"No I didn't."<br />
<br />
Adrian sighed, crossing his arms. "And...I can't believe you didn't tell me."<br />
<br />
Spencer's eyes glinted as he also crossed his arms. "Tell you what? That I'm actually confident? Adrian, puh-lease."<br />
<br />
Adrian shook his head. "Spence...you didn't tell me you...like guys."<br />
<br />
As his heart stopped, Spencer found that he could no longer breathe. True, it was a bold move giving Ian his number, but...c'mon.<br />
<br />
"I don't."<br />
<br />
"Spence-"<br />
<br />
"<i>I don't like guys,</i> Adrian!" He turned to march away, but was stopped by Adrian pulling him close.<br />
<br />
"Little brother, you don't have to lie to me. It's ok."<br />
<br />
Spencer's dam broke just then. He relaxed a tiny bit, and sighed deeply. "Don't tell anyone...ok Dria?" he whispered, using his childhood name for his brother, because Adrian had been far too big a word for him long ago.<br />
<br />
They broke apart, and Adrian held out his pinky. "I won't, Spence."<br />
<br />
They locked pinkies for a moment, and continued their walk.<br />
<br />
__________<br />
<br />
Daisy Windstalker was sexy and she knew it. As she strutted down the street, her older brother Xander following a few steps behind. They were late to that stupid school's orientation but it was worth it to look this damn good.<br />
<br />
Her hair? Perfectly wavy and beachy. Her eyes? Smoky and sexy. Her outfit? Sultry and unique.<br />
<br />
Sexy and she knew it.<br />
<br />
So of course, her confidence level was up as she noticed a pair of men talking by a street lamp. One of them, the one with super long hair and glasses, well, he wasn't her type, but the one who looked like he stepped out of GQ? Perfect.<br />
<br />
Xander caught up with her then, breathing hard from chasing after her for blocks. "Daisy...for real? Stop walking so fast....Jeez." He noticed what she was looking at and groaned. "Not again..."<br />
<br />
__________<br />
<br />
Ian kept turning the slip of paper over and over, nodding as Erich babbled on about some new band. Normally he'd tell Erich to shut up, but...<br />
<br />
Erich punched him in the arm. "Hey. Hottie over there." He pointed at some girl wearing one of those leather bandage dresses. A man of similar good looks stood by her.<br />
<br />
"The boy or the girl?" Ian drawled, flipping the paper one more time.<br />
<br />
"The girl, dumbass."<br />
<br />
Ian sighed. "Fetch, boy."Kody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-78143967614922626882012-09-22T21:45:00.000-07:002012-09-22T21:45:21.049-07:00NUMERO QUATRO (IAN)The night was cold, but for Ian it was just right. He leaned against a tree in much the same pose Spencer had sketched him in earlier. His hair blew gently in the wind. It was perfect, except for-<br />
<br />
Erich nudged Ian gently. "Hey. They left."<br />
<br />
Ian coughed. "And you reek of pot, my dearest brother. Please, stay at least five paces behind me." With that, he set off silently after the two siblings<br />
<br />
Erich rolled his eyes. <i>Who the hell says 'paces' anymore anyway? </i>But he loped after Ian anyway, lighting up his cigarette.<br />
<br />
Spencer and Adrian walked along towards Whitechapel, unaware that two creatures of the night followed silently behind.<br />
<br />
<i>Perhaps Erich was right. The little artist looks familiar. But...no. It's a coincidence. That is all.</i> Silently cursing his brother for even allowing him to even entertain such notions, he halted.<br />
<br />
"Danger?" Erich whispered excitedly, sniffing the air.<br />
<br />
"No. Just thinking. How should we approach this? How shall we even dare to, even presume to meddle in their affairs."<br />
<br />
"Seriously bro. You are stuck in the 18th century."<br />
<br />
"My finest century. After all, I was alive then."<br />
<br />
Erich shook his head. "Stop dwelling on that. Look, are we protecting them or not? I have better things to do."<br />
<br />
"By that of course you mean my housemaid." Ian sighed the long suffering sigh of one who had put up with this before. "We must take a roundabout way."<br />
<br />
"Because you're way too proper. Let me handle this." With that, Erich stalked out of the shadows and directly into the pair's path.<br />
<br />
Ian nearly choked, rushing after his brother to drag him back-<br />
<br />
"Ian?" Spencer asked, grabbing his brothers arm.<br />
<br />
<i>This must be the poet,</i> Ian thought. The two looked alike, though they were like light gold and copper. And the poet boy...Adrian...dwarfed his younger brother by 7 inches.<br />
<br />
"Ah. Yes-" Ian began.<br />
<br />
"Hey. Whats up. My names Erich, you must be Spencer. Listen, you can't go to Whitechaple. Not tonight. There's some bad juju going on right now and-"<br />
<br />
"Could you be bothered to speak correctly, brother?!" Ian hissed, yanking Erich over to him. "Please. Ignore my brother he is a drunken vagrant. Carry on." As he turned to go, Spencer ripped free of Adrian and grasped Ian's arm.<br />
<br />
"Hey." he smiled.<br />
<br />
Ian paused, not sure how to proceed. "Um. Yes. Hello."<br />
<br />
Spencer reached into his jacket pocket, and placed a piece of paper in Ian's hand. "Nothing. Carry on." He winked so fast Ian thought he must have imagined it and walked back over to Adrian.<br />
<br />
Ian couldn't breathe.<br />

"You...you think you met a vampire?"<br />
<br />
Spencer nodded, running his hand through his hair, shades darker than Adrian's own gold. His eyes were darker than Adrian's as well, but they could be twins.<br />
<br />
That and Adrian's being 6'4".<br />

Spencer sighed. "I <i>think</i>. I'm not for sure on it. He was just...his eyes..." he gestured helplessly.<br />
<br />
Adrian nodded thoughtfully. "Well, you said he left. I'll holy water the doors and set up my altar-"<br />
<br />
"Not that witchy crap again..." Spencer moaned.<br />
<br />
"Shut up, Spence. If it helps us I'm going to do it. Vampires are weird and he might be stalking you for all we know. So I'm going to holy water the door, simple as that."<br />
<br />
He turned and stalked over to the hotel bathroom, mind racing. <i>A vampire? No. No way. They're myths, I don't care what mom says. But...what if he's right? </i>Opening up his bag, he pulled out a jar of crystal clear water and proceeded to douse the hotel door.<br />
<br />
_______<br />
<br />
Erich watched as his brother paced the room, musing over things that really shouldn't matter.<br />
<br />
"For the last time, bro. He must have been confused."<br />
<br />
"I doubt he was. Liam is a reliable resource."<br />
<br />
"He's also your ex." Erich flicked a bit of ash from his cigarette onto the carpet, knowing it would irritate his stick up the ass brother. "I highly doubt he's THE most reliable source we have on staff."<br />
<br />
Ian glared. "Stop flicking your ash on my carpet. It's from Italy." He resumed pacing. "If he's right, which I believe he is, the little artist may be in danger."<br />
<br />
"He's the little artist now? What are you, Lestat come to life?" as Ian watched, Erich calmly flicked more ash onto the carpet.<br />
<br />
"No, and stop doing that or I will cut your arm off and feed it to my cat. I'm simply concerned. He seemed rather familiar and I would not like him to die."<br />
<br />
"Because you like him. Told ya so." Erich snorted, dropping his cigarette onto the floor and stamping it out with his bare foot. "I'm going to go find some-"<br />
<br />
"You are not going to smoke pot in my house, brother. Bothers the bats."<br />
<br />
"I'll smoke it outside. Just chill."<br />
<br />
________<br />
<br />
Adrian breathed in the scent of lavender. It permeated the air around him, wafting from the candle he held as he prepared to petition his guardian lwa for help. A most unusual way of summoning a spirit but it worked for him. He breathed in again.<br />
<br />
"It's not going to help Adrian! He isn't in a good mood. I just know, ok? We have to go to the orientation."<br />
<br />
Adrian glared at Spencer. "You want to be drained of all your blood?"<br />
<br />
"I'll wear my rosary. Can we please go."<br />
<br />
"You better wear your saint bracelet too or I will strangle you."<br />
<br />
Adrian blew out the candle and stood.<br />
<br />
"Are you wearing that?"<br />
<br />
"What?" Adrian looked down at his clothes. They seemed alright.<br />
<br />
"Jesus. I'm glad I brought this." Spencer rummaged around in his suitcase and pulled out a pair of darkwash jeans. "Put these on. White button up, DO NOT tuck it in."<br />

Spencer's hair was like a bronzed gold, long, not too long, at that pleasent length Ian adored on men. His eyes were the deep gray of a stormy sky, and his skin...<br />
<br />
Well.<br />
<br />
Ian looked away.<i> Impolite to stare, </i>he thought. If he stared to long, he'd get hungry and if he got hungry he'd seduce the poor boy and that was the height of impoliteness.<br />
<br />
Spencer had finished talking, and was busy scribbling, a faint blush coming over his cheeks.<br />
<br />
<i>Aha. I knew it.</i><br />
<br />
Ian smiled to himself, and touched Spencer's arm, just very slightly. The boy jumped a tiny bit.<br />
<br />
"You seem tense. Would you..." Ian paused here, knowing this would have to be handled delicately. "Would you accompany me to the pub? It's right over there." here he pointed at The Lion's Head, just across the street.<br />
<br />
"I uh....I should go get my brother." Ian marveled at how Spencer's voice, that accent, seemed to deepen with his nervousness. "He's going to flip if he can't find me soon. And I would prefer not to have to fight with him." Spencer stood, as did Ian, and they faced eachother.<br />
<br />
<i>Light and dark.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
"Nice to meet you, Spencer. Enjoy your trip to London, and I sincerely hope you get into that school. Such a talent should not be wasted." He managed to refrain from kissing the boys hand, but only just. Spencer stammered out something similar, and raced off, undoubtedly to find his poet brother.<br />
<br />
Ian walked the opposite way, humming quietly to himself until he reached a darkened alley, occupied by one very impatient werewolf.<br />
<br />
"Erich."<br />
<br />
"Ian"<br />
<br />
"You didn't have to wait."<br />
<br />
"Whatever."<br />
<br />
The pair glared at eachother, as opposite as a pair could be that looked so much alike. Erich's coffee brown hair flowed down his back, and he wore lenseless glasses. His clothing was not straight out of Vogue, like Ian's but was instead frayed, ripped, dirty.<br />
<br />
In short, a hippie and a gentleman stared at eachother.<br />
<br />
Ian casually tapped out a clove cigarette from his pack, lighting it with his zippo. "Brother," he started, "I do not know why you continue to follow me as if a lost puppy dog. It is most unbecoming, but then again, you are just a pup."<br />
<br />
Erich growled, used to this sort of remark. "Bloodsucker."<br />
<br />
"Mangy beast."<br />
<br />
"Leech."<br />
<br />
Glaring ensued.<br />
<br />
Ian exhaled a cloud of fragrant smoke, leaning against the wall. "What did you see?"<br />
<br />
"You mooning over some poor bastard."<br />
<br />
"Remarkably acute, aren't you."<br />
<br />
"I try."<br />
<br />
"Worry no more about the human. He's of no concern."<br />
<br />
Erich rolled his eyes. He'd heard this before too. "Like the one before him? And the one before that? Come to think of it he looks-"<br />
<br />
His speech was cut short by Ian grasping him by the throat and very calmly slamming him into the opposite wall.<br />
<br />
"I wouldn't discuss that anymore, if I were you, or I might have to disembowel my very own brother. And I do hate to get entrails on my suit." He released Erich, and very calmly walked back down the street, clouds of clove smoke following him.<br />
<br />
Erich groaned and trotted after him.<br />

Not staring, more like analyzing, and then transferring to the large sketch pad he carried with himself at all times.<br />
<br />
He'd managed to shrug Adrian off (<i>At last</i>, he thought with a sigh) and had found a quiet corner to sketch in. And he'd found this man.<br />
<br />
A classic beauty, this man was, with chocolate brown hair just long enough to brush his collar, carelessly windblown. He stood there, smoking a cigarette, leaning against a tree, looking for all the world like a rogue model escaped from it's handlers.<br />
<br />
Spencer eyed the man, taking in the shape -eyes, nose, profile, everything- and deftly sketching out. He'd always been talented in art, and today's sketch was no exception to the rule. It somehow, in a few wide strokes, managed to capture the very essence of the man. It was quite extraordinary.<br />
<br />
<i>Nose...sharper. Lashes...longer...</i>he thought, watching as the man ran his fingers through that tousled hair. He was in the zone, that perfect place in which nothing is out of reach.<br />
<br />
At least until the man looked up from his cigarette, looking directly at Spencer.<br />
<br />
<i>Shit! </i>Spencer thought, tearing his eyes away. He'd been caught staring. Every single time this happened, he got in huge trouble, with both the staree and Adrian.<br />
<br />
<i>Shit, shit, shit. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Scrambling, he stood up, almost dropping his pencil. In the hurry, he hardly noticed the man had walked up to him, and was waiting patiently for Spencer to notice.<br />
<br />
Which he did, almost dropping his pencil again.<br />
<br />
"Hello," the stranger said, smiling a little. His accent was British upper crust, refined, elegant.<br />
<br />
"Hey," Spencer squeaked, bracing for impact.<i> </i>His accent was pronounced. Awkward. AMERICAN.<i> 3...2...1...</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
"Hey," the man mused. "So American. I must say I expected you to be French. You certainly look it." He held out his hand. "I'm Ian. Ian Carton. You are...?"<br />
<br />
"Spencer Reed," Spencer squeaked again, taking Ian's hand. It was soft, warm, dry...a perfect hand in both shape and feel.<br />
<br />
"Hello Spencer. You aren't from around here are you?"<br />
<br />
"N-not really."<br />
<br />
"I thought not. Most Brits don't ever stare at someone for longer than three seconds. Not that I mind, as I see you are sketching. May I see?"<br />
<br />
Seeing no way out of it, Spencer sheepishly handed it over. Ian studied it, his deep black eyes thoughtful, and discerning. Soon, he looked at Spencer again.<br />
<br />
"You drew this. Just now. In perhaps 20 minutes, no more."<br />
<br />
"Well yeah. It's sort of what I do."<br />
<br />
"This is...it's exquisite! Remarkable! You have such talent," Ian handed the sketch over. "I insist upon joining you. Really."<br />
<br />
"Yeah! I mean sure, that's cool."<br />
<br />
They sat again on the cold stone steps. Ian studied Spencer's face.<br />
<br />
"So where are you from?"<br />
<br />
"New Orleans," Spencer said, just realizing he had an accent too. A Southern one. <i>Oh lord</i>. "My brother and I got asked to come here, to London for a chance at this scholarship, for a school of the arts. Super prestigious."<br />
<br />
"I can see why. Is your brother this talented?"<br />
<br />
"Adrian? Not at drawing. He's good at poetry. Writing. Things like that. He's kind of...I dunno, romantic? So he just about lost it when he found out we had to come here."<br />
<br />
Ian nodded thoughtfully.<br />

Enjoy!<br />
<br />
ADRIAN- Reserved and quiet, he's the eldest, but he has deep emotions hidden inside. As such, he is prone to angry outbursts of feeling which he pours into his writing. He only wants to protect SPENCER from the evil underbelly, forgetting that SPENCER is an adult now. His writing leaves him with rather romantic idealizations of life, and he wistfully wishes for simpler times. ADRIAN loves practicing magick, which gives him this strange sense of power and hope. He can be a bit overprotective, but he's also the practical one, wanting to sit back and look at the situation.<br />
<br />
SPENCER- Spencer is a comedian, but he has a deep innocent streak, willing to see the good in people, but way down inside he knows there's a darkness in some. He's never had much interest in magick, especially voodoo, so he tends to fight with his hands....that is, if he ever fights. He's a free spirit, willing to take off and draw whenever and wherever the mood strikes him. He loves ADRIAN, but hates always being tethered to him. It's not like he's dying! He's a bit more practical than he'd have people think, a lot like ADRIAN. SPENCER is hiding a huge secret, though it really isn't that huge to anyone but him.<br />
<br />
DAISY- The ultimate girly girl. DAISY has always been the popular girl others envied, and men adored. She's used to the good life, and can't stand it when the attention isn't on her. Despite that, she has a charitable side, and cannot walk past a homeless man without trying to help. She's also talented in music, but has never really nurtured the skill. She's two minutes younger than XANDER, leaving them with a tendency to fight amongst themselves, though she knows she'd be lost without him.<br />
<br />
XANDER- He's the ultimate strong and silent type, makes all the ladies swoon. He's like a backbone, willing to support but also step in and defend. He's also way smarter than people would think, talented in math, science and physics, though he'd never ever admit it out loud. He cares for DAISY a lot, though she can be a pain in the ass for him, what with the nails and the clothes and the hair. Though he's a pretty boy, and he knows it, his is the effortless beauty, shower dry and go.<br />
<br />
IAN- The perfect gentleman, IAN is practically the definition of British, save for the bad teeth and cockney accent. He's cultured, well educated in the arts, the sciences, all of it. And he's a vampire. Been around for 176 years. He loves all things beautiful, and he is beautiful himself. Once he had topaz colored eyes, but they faded to black as the change overcame him. He's seen loss, especially a loved one, time after time. He continues to chase after this soul, but cannot seem to cling onto it.Kody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-36151398577966102912012-09-22T14:53:00.000-07:002012-09-22T14:53:26.139-07:00CharactersI want to write a story. About voodoo and magic and demon marks<br />
<br />
Alright, I plan to make this story into an actual....story not just me and Twin's mnt dew fueled imaginations. So here are my new characters. Plot and other things soon to follow<br />
<br />
ADRIAN TUCKER REED<br />
Adrian is the eldest of all of the group, as well as the tallest and most talented in voodoo/witchcraft like his mother. He's supposed to look like Tomek Szczkiecki and Boyd Holbrook, meaning he has blonde hair, pale skin and light gray eyes. He's easily the most emotional and yet the most sarcastic. He's a cynic, but is gifted in writing, especially poetry. He's 22 years old<br />
<br />
SPENCER WILDE REED<br />
Spencer is Adrian's younger brother by two years. He's the shortest guy in the group, but he makes up for it. He has been trained in witchcraft but prefers to fight with his hands instead. He's also a blonde, looking like Jamie Campbell Bower. He's the fun loving one, always ready to turn anything into a joke, but he has an innocent and romantic side to it. He's gifted in art. He's 20 years old<br />
<br />
DAISY JO WINDSTALKER<br />
Daisy is a twin. She's a few months younger than Adrian, and considers herself the fashionista of the group. She's a super girly girl, slightly full of herself. She looks like Emma Stone with brown hair. She's never been formally trained in any type of magic, has never even been in a fight. But she's scrappy and tough. Her talent is music. She's 22.<br />
<br />
XANDER LEE WINDSTALKER<br />
Xander is Daisy's twin brother. He's a lady killer, and works out. He isn't vain, just practical and honest. Of the four of them, he and Daisy are more likely to be noticed, as they are very attractive. He looks like Jensen Ackles with dark brown hair and eyes. His talent, surprisingly is math and science. He's the solid member of the group, the backbone. He's 22<br />
<br />
IAN OLIVER CARTON<br />
Ian, to be plain, is a vampire. He keeps losing the people he loves, especially one person, over and over. He's a gentleman to the core, and 176 years old. He comes from England, but keeps houses all over the world. He's obsessed with beautiful things, be it poetry, art, anything. He lives in opulent historic houses and controls one of the largest vampire networks in the western hemisphere. Though a vampire, he refuses to hurt anyone, and only ever drinks what he needs. Much like Lestat, he dresses in finery from other decades.Kody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-65017410533044002082012-09-15T13:49:00.000-07:002012-09-15T13:49:11.752-07:00Autumn Glow makeupI like makeup tutorials so you must deal with this.<br />
<br />
1. Apply a light coverage foundation and powder<br />
<br />
2. Prime lids with concealer or primer<br />
<br />
3. Apply a rusty gold eyeshadow all over lid. Pat bronzey color into the outer v of the lid, and apply a sheer gold all over<br />
<br />
4. Line with black or dark brown eyeliner, in both water line and lash line<br />
<br />
5. apply a lengthining mascara to both upper and lower lashes<br />
<br />
6. Use a plummy blush on apples of the cheeks<br />
<br />
7. Highlight both browbone and cheekbones with a glowy highlighter or cream eyeshadow<br />
<br />
8. Use a plummy/brown toned pink (I used Cathedral by KVD)<br />
<br />
Done! Glowy for autumn!<br />
<br />

So, here you go. Asylum girl makeup. I wore this to my audition to Asylum/Hotel Fear haunted houses. More on that later.<br />
<br />
Step 1: Whiten your skin with a light, full coverage foundation. You can also use childs Halloween face paint.<br />
<br />
Step 2: powder it down, for a ghostly appearance.<br />
<br />
Step 3: mix a matte beige and deep brown eyeshadow and apply it to the ball of your lid and under the eye. Blend it around the edges. You want to look very tired.<br />
<br />
Step 4: apply this mix to under your cheekbones, at a slant, to look hollowed out. Blend this a lot.<br />
<br />
Step 5: pale down your lips with either a foundation or a nude lipstick<br />
<br />
Step 6: line both your waterline and lash line with the dark brown eyeshadow. Apply mascara<br />
<br />
Mess up your hair if you desire a crazed look.<br />
<br />
And you're done! You want to look sleepy or starving. Wear a white dress for authenticity.<br />

I knew, you knew, hell, even God knew.
So here it is, the birthday list for this year. I know I've posted like 50 of these but this time, I mean it. Let's get started<br />
~LA Ink seasons 1-7<br />
~Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper<br />

Sure, this is normal for a 16 year old hormonal girl, but I believe my utter hatred of Shakespeare and of geometry is not.
Or maybe it is.
Whatever.
Despite my loathing of the aforementioned, as well as Biology and...oh let's say the Civil War, I tend to know a lot. About things. Many things. Things I will never ever use again in my life, unless to win on Jeopardy. And even then, it's not things many people are apt to know....
Such as:
~I can tell you that King Henry the 8th had 6 wives. And how each of them ended up. And their names. In order. Fast forward 50 years, I cannot tell you anything about Queen Elizabeth except she liked plays.
~I can tell you the names of each of the most 'prolific' FBI profilers, and their specialties.

As you can see, the things I know, don't quite outwigh the things I do not know. But many of those things I don't know, I don't learn in school. (This had a point, really). For example, high school doesn't offer a taxes class, or a social skills class, or how to ass kiss in buisiness, or a self defense class, or smart shopping for 18-23 year old high school graduates.
So maybe, just maybe it isn't that I hate Shakespeare. It's that I will never use him and his work again. I have enough nonsensical trivia in my brain, little of it pleasent. Can I get some real info instead of how Othello is a Tragic Hero please?Kody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-90912344923194825562011-12-10T21:31:00.000-08:002011-12-10T21:31:32.389-08:00The Best Vampire MoviesSo I was thinking about it last night. Okay, last week. And I was thinking about Twilight and how much it sucked, and how it started out as blah blah blah.<br />And I realized, people don't really know what I think about Vampires and Vampire movies. So here are my top 5 vampire movies of all time.<br />Bear in mind, these are my favorites, that if I were to go out and rent a movie, I would rent these. I'm sure someone will say Nosferatu or Dracula 2000 was better, but I don't really care.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcgAZj94GZc1PJaFJsNrRaVIYuYhYmR9xuzmIb8DJrpd-G9RhJecv6y4eXoiY1Apo92HgLL3mWZFMv10yFJfCxemKfXjNQkv7LSiT4w5gmq73JsFikiaCBYqdUoI1GNXLhBSfUYxze5FU/s1600/images2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 171px; height: 253px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcgAZj94GZc1PJaFJsNrRaVIYuYhYmR9xuzmIb8DJrpd-G9RhJecv6y4eXoiY1Apo92HgLL3mWZFMv10yFJfCxemKfXjNQkv7LSiT4w5gmq73JsFikiaCBYqdUoI1GNXLhBSfUYxze5FU/s320/images2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5684726809184442162" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><span style="font-style:italic;">Number 5: Queen Of The Damned (2002)</span></span><br />So, this is not exactly the greatest Vampire Movie ever. In fact, it's supposed to be the movie version of the book by Anne Rice of the same name. It failed miserably. The only similarities were the fact that the characters names were Lestat, Akasha, Marius and Jessie, and Lestat was a rockstar. The movie totally skips over the pivotal storyline of the book, getting rid of many important characters, and reducing the ones left to...this. Why is this my favorite if it sucks? You ask. Well, the soundtrack is amazing and features original songs. And if you have never read the book, this whole thing totally makes sense. It also has great actors in it. Aaliyah plays Akasha, the Vampire Queen of the Damned. Vincent Perez stars as Marius, (Who unfortunately is but a shadow of the true Marius, and hispanic, while Marius is a blonde Roman.) Perez also stars in The Crow: City Of Angels, which I loved. This also stars Stuart Townshend as the all-important Lestat. As much as I hate Townshend's interpretation of Lestat AS I KNOW HIM, he was good as Dorian Gray in the forgettable yet very good League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. <br />This movie is great because of the soundtrack. And Aaliyah. It's only number 5 because there is one Armand Cameo and Armand is my second favorite character. And Marius is not a hot blonde roman. And the storyline is messed.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9I07glerhjfCMqOUyjb4cOQch5IqKKdGec-77iScW81j522ADS2lOawdeKVolHYDb4ciQyRgQ0ZtHrixy22KYMMht_c1na2UocX21zpQCo0A2MWkGIm8ogj20wfxhYza5fVHntHC39po/s1600/underworld-limited-edition-20060120051137534-000.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9I07glerhjfCMqOUyjb4cOQch5IqKKdGec-77iScW81j522ADS2lOawdeKVolHYDb4ciQyRgQ0ZtHrixy22KYMMht_c1na2UocX21zpQCo0A2MWkGIm8ogj20wfxhYza5fVHntHC39po/s320/underworld-limited-edition-20060120051137534-000.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5684729189445799794" /></a><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Number 4: Underworld Trilogy<span style="font-weight:bold;"></span></span><br />So. Underworld. I love these movies. This is one of those movies that tried to take the genre in a whole new direction, and did it well. At least the first two did. The third (Rise of The Lycans) was just a rehash of everything we learned in Underworld part 1. And Part 4 just looks awful. (Spoiler! Michael Corvin, the pivotal, unique character who was the utter FOCUS of the first two films is gone.) <br />The movie is very interesting. Vampires and werewolves (called Lycans) are at war. Selene (played by the ever sexy Kate Beckinsale) is a Death Dealer, vampire trained to wipe them out. Well, the lead werewolf has a plan. He kidnaps members of the Corvin family, attempting to create a vampire/lycan hybrid. He succeeds with Michael Corvin. In the second installment, Selene tries to expose a corrupt vampire leader to the last remaining elder, and the world goes to hell.<br />It's hard to summarize these two movies because there are so many plot twists and turns, that it would take me far longer than this blog post to explain it all.<br />Great movies. At least the first two are. The next two are blights on the very name.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVo1Nz4QvAOGLz1fChfaP-ZNKVENiA5SJiHnI1FsL5VB2PUgLW44AgDdujfJjMLaR1Ql4DMv8F_dhSkocqgrx3HLToqjbVE7NLdTdhzCDPhdA1xTLu24Y9LH3KHCGKbK-cDJZGOE3QWKQ/s1600/10937097_det.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 180px; height: 263px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVo1Nz4QvAOGLz1fChfaP-ZNKVENiA5SJiHnI1FsL5VB2PUgLW44AgDdujfJjMLaR1Ql4DMv8F_dhSkocqgrx3HLToqjbVE7NLdTdhzCDPhdA1xTLu24Y9LH3KHCGKbK-cDJZGOE3QWKQ/s320/10937097_det.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5684731943184328242" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Number 3/2: The Lost Boys<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br />The Lost Boys. What a movie. This features The Coreys, both Feldman and Haim. And...two words...Kiefer Sutherland. This movie may be pure 80's cheese, but it is so fantastic. Brothers Michael and Sam move to Santa Carla, the self proclaimed murder capital. At a beach front concert whatever, Michael sees star, David's(Kiefer) girlfriend. He follows her, leaving Sam(Haim) to meet brothers Edgar and Alan (Feldman and that one kid no one remembers much because he was not a Corey)at the comic book store. They are assigned the whole xplanation thing. And they do it well, cementing their role as the amatuer vampire hunters. <br />Michael and Star meet up the next night, coincidentally meeting up with David's gang, including Alex Winters (Bill, of Bill and Ted fame.) as Marko, the nameless but totlly hot actor who plays Paul, aka 'that twisted sister vampire!', and, of course, Billy Wirth as Dwayne. Billy and Paul are totally only there to say like one line and prance about in mesh shirts and leather but that's ok, they are HAWT. Seriously, between them, they have one line, and I still totally think they are the most interesting characters like oh my gawd.<br />Anyway, David and Michael have the whole testosterone fight over Star going on. And in a pivotal scene they hang off a bridge. But before that, David makes Michael eat maggots and drink vampire blood. The next morning, Michael awakens as a half vampire, like Star and the kid that she takes everywhere. The point of this whole thing is you cannot be a full vampire until you take a life. So, words are said between Sam and Michael, Michael almost eats Sam, their mom dates the head vampire of the whole gig, and it's just a funny, cheesy, 80's Vampire movie. With Paul. Who is the only blonde guy I'd totally date.<br />So this is both my number and 3 AND number 2. Mostly for the mesh shirts and the bridge scene.<br />Well, that and Paul and Dwayne. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLBvUyKuKzxHv-IFxBfIKe1gyfkQ6ZWtUBJmNGKBTDiWPuzCCPcqD1G7IoK8HnXwHPrHIfdXf3t1q8dTCdkFHzC6L_Udts38piySzN3W4PWbxNOANkD21WOZ8zGJ31riA7aKHFIAg7xDg/s1600/51FLy3aHhSL._SL500_AA300_.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLBvUyKuKzxHv-IFxBfIKe1gyfkQ6ZWtUBJmNGKBTDiWPuzCCPcqD1G7IoK8HnXwHPrHIfdXf3t1q8dTCdkFHzC6L_Udts38piySzN3W4PWbxNOANkD21WOZ8zGJ31riA7aKHFIAg7xDg/s320/51FLy3aHhSL._SL500_AA300_.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5684737406890537426" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><span style="font-style:italic;">Number 1: Interview With The Vampire</span></span><br />Where do I even begin??

And let me just say COME ON YOUNGER ME! STOP SHAVING YOUR EYEBROWS!<br /><br />So, here's some advice for you lil babybats all obsessed with being the perfect Ville Valo and Amy Lee clones.<br /><br />1. No one is goth 24/7. No one. Some days even Robert Smith of The Cure prefers to sit around in his pj's and watch Tough Love with no makeup on. <br /><br />2. do not go to bed with your makeup gone. Seriously. Don't. <br /><br />3. black lipstick and heavy eyeshadow for school makes you look stupid. You WILL get made fun of, sorry. And black lipstick looks good on nobody. Brandon Lee is the only exception and see how well that turned out.<br /><br />4. Corsets and fishnet tights/gloves in school are no-no's. Especially middle school. And if you're in high school, wearing them to a job interview is a huge no-no. You can wear gothy clothes to an interview, but they should be corporate and professional. No shirts with naked vampire girls.<br /><br />5. Stop wearing Bloody Mary powder foundation and hot topic eyeliner. It's 99 cents, and trust me it looks like it. If you're poor, drugstore companies like covergirl offer very pale foundation and dark liners. If you save up, Sephora's Kat Von D collection has pale concealers and a few dark liners. If you are REALLY rich, English company Illamasqua has foundations for paler skin. DO NOT GO WHITE, that's for clowns, but they have pale foundations that look good. And wear some blusher please. Illamasqua has blush for the pale. Drugstores don't. Use pale pink eyeshadow. Anyway, Their company also has a charity for Sophie Lancaster, an English Goth beaten to death for being goth. Their darkest black eyeliner is even named Sophie. So not only are they makeup geniuses, knowing not every woman is naturally tan, but they are pro tolerance, of ALL lifestyles.<br /><br />6. Please know where 'goth' music comes from. There's a never-ending debate on which bands are goth and which aren't, but we all seem to agree on what started us off. The Cure, Joy Division, Bauhaus, Sisters Of Mercy...those are starting points. You don't have to like them, I certainly don't, but at least know who they are.<br /><br />7. You can't listen to only My Chemical Romance or Evanescence and call yourself an expert in goth music. You can't. You can call MCR your favorite band, but don't try to sell them as the gothy-est band ever because most of us will disagree violently.<br /><br />8. Prepare to get taken seriously in all the wrong places. My parents accepted the goth thing a while ago, and set a few ground rules (No Corsets or bustiers, for my dad at his house it's no all black ensemble.) Your parents may not. Expect to hear 'it's just a phase' a few BILLION times. And yes, your classmates will tease you. If I had a dime for every time someone asked if I was reading Twilight or hissed at me or called me a vampire I could afford 2 bottles of Freak by Illamasqua, and 3 full coverage foundations in RF115. Also, no matter how joking you are, don't say 'I will eat your soul' to a classmate. Because they will somehow take THAT seriously, or they will make fun of you endlessly. This has happened to me. My sense of humor is very...dry and somewhat morbid, so when I dead pan 'your soul', when someone asks me what I'd like to eat, it gets taken VERY SERIOUSLY.<br /><br />9. You do not have to wear all black. For me, it's not possible 24/7. Also, with my black hair, my skin looks even paler. You can find gothy shirts in red, purple, gray, orange....even White. Yes. White. And be prepared to answer some stupid questions. Such as "You're not goth, you're not wearing all black!" or "You're not goth, you don't have on black lipstick/eyeshadow/hair." don't be like me and snidely ask them how many goth people they know besides Marilyn Manson, then get REALLY sarcastic when they answer none. It's not their fault they're...(grits teeth)...misinformed. Blame the Media, who portray us, at best, mopey depressed freaks in a corner cutting ourselves, at worst, satan worshipping sluts who kill cute bunnies. So do not get rude, it doesn't help our image.<br /><br />10. Find your own style! Yes, Amy Lee looks hot, Emilie Autumn is beautiful, Ville Valo is great, Gerard Way is...well, and Jyrki 69 is so gorgeous he makes me want to go straight, but do not dress exactly like perfect little clones of them. I categorize my style into 5 different sub categories. <span style="font-style:italic;">Horrorgoth</span>, which is my Wednesday 13, Al. B. Damned, Rob Zombie side, <span style="font-style:italic;">Electric Gypsy</span>, which is Motley Crue, Back in Blood/Lost Boys/Devils/Angels era 69 Eyes, LA Guns, motorcycle LA trash, <span style="font-style:italic;">Hollywood Vampire</span>, which is mostly Back in Blood 69 eyes and Sixx A.M. Corsets and velvet blazers with jeans and knee high boots. <span style="font-style:italic;">Girly goth(Perky goth)</span>, which happens to shop at Kohls and does my makeup, <span style="font-style:italic;">and Victorian, traditional goth</span>, which is Wasting the Dawn/Gothic Girl/Dance D'Amour 69 eyes, Emilie Autumn, corsets, velvet lace style. See, I work many different styles, and so should you. Don't be a clone.<br /><br />So, that's it cuties! my advice for you adorable babybats.Kody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-84917922747944358682011-11-25T12:29:00.000-08:002011-12-02T13:34:16.167-08:00Kat Von D Makeup ReviewsJust for fun, I'm going to review the Kat Von D items I own and use.<br />Most of Miss Kat's items are hit or miss for me...everytime I order I lose a bit of my soul I hate her THAT FRIGGIN MUCH. However, the woman knows makeup. Just look at her. You don't wear that much eyeshadow and not know anything about makeup.<br /><br />She gets great reviews on her eyeshadows and lipsticks, and for the most part I tend to agree. Again, some can be hit or miss, and I can't be a great source because my lids and face get very oily. This is what science calls a variable. <br /><br />Just for background, I own all her perfumes and they're all ah-mazing. Except for Poetica, the purple one. That one is very floral so it's only a 'good' in my book. I got Saint And Sinner when they first came out. I was 13. So yes, I did have vague knowledge of the Sephora Kat Von D line. Then I got a Sephora giftcard, bought her makeup, and...well.<br /><br />Of all her products I own: Poetica/Saint/Sinner/Angeles Eyeshadow Palettes, Hustler/Party Animal/Stormy/Gunshine/Retox/Sexer Lightning Sheer lipgloss,High Voltage Eyeshadow Primer in Skin and the Lock 'N Load Makeup setting mist.<br /><br />Let's get to it shall we?<br /><br />First, eyeshadows. I don't have the swatches right now, but they are on my facebook.<br />As for why I'm providing two definitions? Well, In person and on the skin, they look nothing like they do online.

The colors(With sephora descriptions in italics, mine in regular), left to right are:<br />Venus(<span style="font-style:italic;">Shimmer bronze</span>/Golden bronze copper), Leather (<span style="font-style:italic;">Matte Dark Chocolate Brown</span>/Orange based matte brown), Specimen (<span style="font-style:italic;">Pearly Medium Brown</span>/True beige), Rehab (<span style="font-style:italic;">Pearly Beige</span>/Creamy light beige), Peggy (<span style="font-style:italic;">Pearly Turquoise</span>/Jyrki 69's eye color), Bukowski (<span style="font-style:italic;">Pearly Aqua</span>/Shimmer Turquoise), Bellbottom (<span style="font-style:italic;">Pearly Slate Blue</span>/Shimmer denim), and Morphine (<span style="font-style:italic;">Cream White</span>/Worthless crap white)<br /><br />So, what's wrong with this palette? Not a whole lot, actually. The brushes that come with are worthless, and the cream eyeshadow, as it is in ALL Kat Von D palettes is crap. My only problem, not even with this palette in particular is that her shades are VERY shimmery. Too shimmery, at times. And her browns and grays, if you blend too much, can end up being orange and blue. Yes, I'm serious.<br /><br />But this palette is not bad, even with the shocking blues. The blues are very blendable, and nice for a pop of color. The browns are very subtle and wearable.<br /><br />Except for Venus. Venus is not a color for very fair women like me. It ends up not being a nice color, way too dark and...copper. It is just not a good look.<br /><br />My favorite color is Rehab. It's a nice skintone, and looks very cute. I wear it daily, as a matter of fact, for a little shimmer on my lids.<br /><br />Overall, 3.5 out of 5 stars!<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Sinner</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKvKs-YL11C-ymVAHkG8F-AHEchOrN_BaUVFXobSFNr1ufH6GYZrIpJs4eLopbfTDsJD2FZ4H860MLFI5U-AFD2w6lc4KDk5DBJGa9S8A2dfqpoSrEoRAAbU6e3ho4T7ypr-RGd_gmVU4/s1600/Kat-Von-D-True-Romance-Eye-Shadow-palette-in-sinner.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 180px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKvKs-YL11C-ymVAHkG8F-AHEchOrN_BaUVFXobSFNr1ufH6GYZrIpJs4eLopbfTDsJD2FZ4H860MLFI5U-AFD2w6lc4KDk5DBJGa9S8A2dfqpoSrEoRAAbU6e3ho4T7ypr-RGd_gmVU4/s320/Kat-Von-D-True-Romance-Eye-Shadow-palette-in-sinner.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5679041579271530066" /></a><br /><br />The ultimate goth girl's palette. This is THE dark palette, and not a very wearable one.<br />Again, colors, left to right:<br />Disco Dust (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized soft pink</span>/shimmery baby pink), Linzy-Jane (<span style="font-style:italic;">iridescent purple</span>/Light purple), Ace of Spades (<span style="font-style:italic;">burgundy w/ purple sparkle</span>/Dark purple with purple and silver sparkles), Violator (<span style="font-style:italic;">smoky purple w/ purple sparkle</span>/gray-purple with silver and purple sparkles), Holy Bible (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized silver</span>/Silver tinged shimmery white), Glock (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized gun metal</span>/blue-gray), Dorian Gray (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized charcoal gray</span>/darker blue gray), Lucifer (matte black).<br /><br />With these next 3 palettes, they all come with a mini eyeliner, which isn't worthless, but isn't exceptional either.<br /><br />Like I said, gothy and dark. Except for Disco Dust, which I use as highlighter on my eyes and face, they are be very hard to wear to say, work or school. Unless you think the smoky eye is okay for those places (It isn't. More on extreme makeup in my Advice for KinderGoths post, should be up by tomorrow.), or you're IN a field that requires dramatic makeup, like a makeup artist, or a stripper, or model. (An aside to Twin and Kelly. Your makeup is NOT a smoky eye. Yours is acceptable, and very cute.)<br /><br />This is a beautiful palette, I love love love the colors, I really do. It's just hard to find a place to wear them, so if you're not able to find a place (For me it's concerts, pictures, Dance Recital, and Theater), don't shell out the money for this.<br /><br />4 out of 5!<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Poetica</span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR_sHI5NyfCMbuYfG2YqmZifT3ADKQY_DzxcZIXsOt4qul_S6qiSp9r8thhmZ4mX96y2QOeR3Wk480QQ45Pocae_WeHjOlPw528BKPKOPnF9ZrdCDJjM82hyphenhyphen9_ICGXC8aMpRWEIpBmYAQ/s1600/Kat-Von-D-True-Romance-Eyeshadow-Palette-Saint-Sinner-Poetica-003.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 220px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR_sHI5NyfCMbuYfG2YqmZifT3ADKQY_DzxcZIXsOt4qul_S6qiSp9r8thhmZ4mX96y2QOeR3Wk480QQ45Pocae_WeHjOlPw528BKPKOPnF9ZrdCDJjM82hyphenhyphen9_ICGXC8aMpRWEIpBmYAQ/s320/Kat-Von-D-True-Romance-Eyeshadow-Palette-Saint-Sinner-Poetica-003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5679045361356565058" /></a><br /><br />LtR: Forgiveness (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized butter-cream</span>/Shimmertastic cream), Sand Timer (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized sand</span>/Matte beige-skintone), Chandler (<span style="font-style:italic;">pearlized copper</span>/ Venus in a new palette), Tijuana (<span style="font-style:italic;">brown and black with gold sparkle</span>/Matte brown-lots of black with minimal sparkle), Wonderland (<span style="font-style:italic;">burgundy with gold pearl</span>/Burgundy with a hint of gray, a few sparkles), Skiba (<span style="font-style:italic;">purple with gold pearl</span>/gray purple with sparkle), Babe (<span style="font-style:italic;">lavender</span>/Neon purple), You Alone (<span style="font-style:italic;">matte vanilla</span>/Shimmery vanilla).<br /><br />Another palette hard to wear in the daytime hours!

It's actually a peacy nude.), and Sexer (Sephora says peach, more or an apricot pink.)<br /><br />The rest of the line was discontinued, but the other colors/names as near as I can guess are Stripper, Rocker, Marg, Strutter, Fierce Red, Saint and Bam. Those, of course are the really sexy pretty ones. -eye. roll-<br /><br />I love this lipgloss. For 5$ from a huge place like Sephora that's a steal. They are also very shimmery and glittery. A few of the shades (Hustley, Sexer, Gunshine) are very sheer and provide minimal color, but there are a few colors (Party Animal, Stormy) provide some real color payoff. Party Animal is...orange, and Stormy is a sexy dark burgundy. The only problem is it tends to wear off easily.

It's not an awful series, in my opinion. I read the first 6 books and I don't hate it. It's an interesting series aimed for teenagers, mostly girls. It does address Wicca in positive lights, indicating the author does know what she's talking about. So far so good right? We're off to a good start? Well...kinda. Cate brings in the whole idea of Blood Witches, which means you are part of an old family of witches and your powers are derived from your family, making you royalty.<br /><br />Lets deal with that 1 problem at a time, ok?<br /><br />I understand without the 7 Families concept, Mrs Tiernan wouldn't really have a story. I get it. It does make for interesting subtext.<br /><br />But if you are a 13 year old girl very much into Wicca, or your notion of it, the 7 families concept is not a good one. Like it or not, other teens, but we are subtly influenced by what we read. And these 13 year olds do actually think Mrs Teirnan is showing what Wicca is actually like. They think there ARE 7 families of witchcraft,oddly always Celtic (Irish and Scottish), based mainly Wicca. And they start claiming they're a part of one of those families.<br />How do I know this? Totally happened to me. I WAS that 13 year old. <br /><br />Also, powers? Come on. I'm going to leave it at that.<br /><br />Like I said, I understand why Cate Tiernan wrote these books, so it's not her I want to freak out at. She's just writing a book series with a few glaring inaccuracies, albeit a VERY interesting series.<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Exhibit 2: Silver Ravenwolf and TeenWitch.</span><br /><br />Let me just say, Raven Digitalis and Silver Ravenwolf, even if you both didn't have really bad books, you would still be snickered at for your names. Silver. Raven. Wolf. You sound like a goth 20 year old girl at the clubs.<br /><br />Alright, that was a bit snarky of me, but come on, when you hear Silver Ravenwolf, do you think seasoned witch of 20 years, or angsty teen girl?<br /><br />Silver Ravenwolf is not popular among the Wiccan crowd, mainly because of her bestselling book Teen Witch.<br /><br />I read Teen Witch, and since I was 12, I don't remember much, but reading snippets and clippings now...<br /><br />Wow.<br /><br />She's really controlling in the whole concept of Wicca. DO NOT HARM! and NO BLOOOOOOOD! seem to be her main arguments, though any Vodou Mambo could tell you sacrifice (Not of the human kind, calm down.) is a good thing, nay, needed in most of their rituals. <br /><br />She also cals herself Mama Silver, which just makes you think of that sweet 30 year old woman at the occult bookstore, guiding you on the right path. This lulls the parents into a false sense of security, until she busts out with:<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Teen Witch! Is at the bookstores NOW. Call 1-800-THE-MOON to place your order, or bug, bother and pester your neighborhood book store till they can't stand it any more. Oh, and for the adults that don't like this statement? Maybe you don't care about their future, but I do.</span></span><br /><br />If I weren't going to let my kids read her books before, I'm most assuredly not now. Really? Bug your parents? For a dang book?<br /><br />My parents would smack me, not buy it.<br /><br />She also encourages lying to parents, by telling them you're 'praying to angels' or some such nonsense. <br /><br />Surely there are easier ways to tell your parents you're exploring a new religion. It wasn't easy for me, but I pulled the bratty 13 year old approach, not the mature adult approach in which you calmly explain why you are interested in this particular religion, and offer to let them read the books you have so they can see for themselves what exactly you're looking at.<br /><br />Side note: this would probably work for my parents, but every parent is different, and in some cases, NO they aren't always going to understand you. My mom is still twitchy about the goth thing, and my dad has gotten a lot better at accepting my fascination with the darker side, but still won't let me wear all black.<br /><br />Oh well. In 2 years I can do whatever I want, though I've started accepting that you do not have to wear all black only black 24/7. Now, if only other people could understand that because I'm not wearing black lipstick and dramatic eyeshadow doesn't mean I'm not goth.<br /><br />But I digress.<br /><br />Silver Ravenwolf does not portray Wicca in an accurate light. She makes it fluffy and rainbows and sometimes its not. Not all witchcraft follows the Harm None ideal. (I'm not Wiccan but I still try to hold to that ideal.) For more info on 'Mama Silver' check out the links below.<br /><br />Silver Ravenwolf also makes anyone not Wiccan out to be stupid simpletons. The main targets of her wrath are usually Christians. I may argue some parts of Christianity, often angrily, but I will never say they are stupid sheep who blindly believe everything, and can only be saved by turning to us, where we must deprogram them. And as ridiculous as I find the deeply fervent followers to be sometimes, some of the greatest, nicest people I have ever met are christians. A good friend of mine is Mormon, and he is great. My mom's family on her maternal side are Christians and they are great people. I babysit for a christian family every tuesday while the mom goes and works at church. Again, great people. I may not agree with their way of thinking, and though I may have said it in the past, they are not naive stupid sheep. they are AWESOME people.<br /><br />I mean come ON.<br /><br />So, why exactly am I not Wiccan? Well, besides the actual initiation into a Gardernarian circle and all the ho-do, I just have moved on from the fluffy bunnies part of my life. It was cool and unique when I was 13, but I don't really connect with nature like many do. Don't get me wrong, I love being in unique nature spaces. They're just usually overgrown graveyards, not forests or fields. When I went to New Orleans last March, I really connected with voodoo and the energy there. I don't practice it officially, I sort of blend what I've been doing with what I understand now, but I'm still learning and progressing.<br /><br />However, I will say, it's because of the inaccurate information that I do distance myself from Wicca, ever so subtly.<br /><br />And that's the skinny. <br /><br />http://www.ecauldron.net/opedtarnishedsilver.php<br /><br />http://www.fortunecity.com/roswell/vanthal/608/id57.htm<br /><br />http://wicca.cnbeyer.com/ravenwolf.shtmlKody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-67900754817998843712011-10-19T21:17:00.000-07:002011-10-19T21:22:36.889-07:00You're 14. No, You don't get to smokeMy school is in an uproar. Not because school lunch prices have risen to more than their 2.50 for a disgusting slice of pizza. Nor for yet another assembly about how the white race gets it way easier than everybody else. (Not here we don't. In the deep South maybe.)<br />Instead its because our schools designated Smoking area is closing. We call it Telly.<br />And no this area isnt for teachers or overage students legally allowed to purchase these cancer sticks.<br />It's for any student. Kids at my school are 14-18 and roughly 75% of them are out there at lunch smoking.<br /><br />We are the only school in our district, the ENTIRE district to have a student designated area for smoking. And no, the campus monitors don't check and make sure you're of legal age to smoke. All they care about is that you keep walking.<br /><br />Where's the responsibility here? And why has NO PARENT complained?<br />Oh yeah, I know, they're trying to get their kid to cut down from a pack a day to only 6 cigarettes a day. No, I am not exaggerating.<br />I mean seriously? If you don't think having a school environment that accepts and -lets be honest- even encourages smoking will cause more smokers, you're an idiot.<br />Having this area and this laissez faire attitude totally encourages smoking. It practically lights the first one up for you.<br /><br />I know the other side says at least they're doing it on school grounds, if you take this away they'll sneak out and go to private property. It's not illegal to smoke it just to buy it if you're underage!<br />(The whole point of where they'd have to GET the cigarettes from I guess just zooms on by.)<br />As you may have guessed, the other side are mostly students who are cool with dying.<br />As spencer reid says, 6 minutes.<br />(From a Criminal Minds episode in which Reid tells a hooker every time his mom lit up, he'd tell her '6 minutes' as in, 6 minutes off your life span per cigarette as in less time I get to spend with you.)<br /><br />Quit Whining. You're underage. It's illegal. I hope you tell the cops that bust your ass that you didnt buy it, you were just smoking. Yeah, 18 year olds still get in trouble for having sex with 16 year olds. Even though it's 'legal'.<br />I'm glad they're shutting it down. I'm perfectly happy with not polluting my lungs anymore. With the amount of smokers? Just going outside sends tons of that smoke down.<br />Quick trivia: 90% yes 90% of non smokers have residue of cigarette crap in their lungs.<br /><br />Thanks. Now I get to die with you stupid underage brats. You don't get rights over this, you're 14. Shut up and deal with it. You're not losing any rights, you never had this right to begin with! This is at best a privilege. And privileges, as those of us who were raised well realize, can be taken away.<br /><br />Final point: Smoking causes yellow teeth and bad breath. Not to mention I cannot stand to go within 5 feet of you. You reek. You are 14 years old and you reeeeeek of cigarette smoke.<br /><br />What happened to this country?Kody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-86324747363549593552011-06-29T03:33:00.000-07:002011-06-29T04:59:43.646-07:00Private LivesI'm always so intrigued when I hear about actresses, especially disney actresses having to apoligize because they sometimes act their age, which is usually over 18. Vaness Hudgins had to apoligize for sending sexy pictures of herself to her boyfriend. My question is, why do private lives matter so much? I doubt the 8 year old watching HSM is going to hear about that. I was freaking weird as a kid and I never watched the news. If the Murder She Wrote star had had a sex tape out there, I never would have heard about it, so why do people have to apoligize for being adults and having sex/getting plastic surgery, etc.<br /><br />I'm going to be honest, I love Jack White and Matthew Gray Gubler. But I don't know shiite about these guys except for that they're hot and talented because that kind of news doesn't really affect my life. I mean, I can dream, but unless MGG reads this, decides some 15 year old chick is his soulmate and can wait a few years, I doubt I'm ever going to meet him, let alone GETWITH the guy. (Jack's married and around mid 30's early 40's, ew when I look at it in perspective, he just plays a lwa in one of my books that stay in my head until I get really bored. Well, his looks were the inspiration for the lwa anyway.) Matthew I love you. As the weird teen who sadly identifies with Dr. Reid. <br /><br />Anyway!<br /><br />So when I hear author Judy Mays was given an ultimatum of epic busybody proportions, the kind perpetrated by women who've only gotten it missionary style as ordained by 'teh bibleh!' instead of the fun way ordained by...everybody..., I was shocked. Mays writes erotic or romantic type novels. Not exactly light material, but it's fun. Sexy. Shapeshifter slash human fun sexy stuff. She teaches students as well. Let me make this clear; I don't care or want to know what my teachers do at home. Could not care less. In fact I would prefer I never ever find out. Because my teachers stay teachers. If I see them outside of school it's awkward and we have nothing to speak about except my impending initiation into the crazy people who diagnose other crazy people crew. If one of them turned out to be an erotic writer, hell, I probably own one of their books, that's what would make it awkward.("Oh, Ms. so-and-so, the...book was...good, I really liked- ok I'm leaving here's my report kthnxbai ma'am.") This woman who 'exposed' Mays claims that Mays will either be looking at her son, or her son will be thinking of the sex scenes he probably hasn't nor will ever read. The kid actually came to his teachers' defense, no shocker there, ey students!?<br /><br />For the record Mays is married and has kids apparently older than her students. Also, come to think of it, if you didn't want your apparently easily influenced kid to think about it, why'd you bring it up in the FIRST FRIGGEN PLACE, lady? That insecure?<br /><br />Interesting how freedom of speech comes to mean freedom of whatever we want you to say. You get no private life. You get no devious, sexual behavior. You get no kinky whatever the hell YOU do in YOUR bedroom in YOUR house that doesn't affect ANYBODY, because we don't like it.<br /><br />Well the school board gave Ms. Mays an ultimatum*; you can write your books, or you can quit teaching. You can't have both. Like it really matters. You're forcing her to give up something that she loves, there's no way she can win! Reminds me of the people who say gays shouldn't teach kids, they'd be ogling us! I sincerely doubt the lesbian teacher finds a 15 year old straight chick with braces and acne and a bad attitude sexy, but people can be incredibly stupid and incredibly reaching for a reason to be a bigot! Same thing happened with Mays. She wrote sexy stories, she MUST be sexually deviant. A pedophile even, although none of her books or any evidence shows there to be pedophilia. And why would she even want some from your awkward inexperienced kid? Jeesh. Thinking about/wanting Sex=/=pedophilia, woman who is so sexually frustrated she needs to deny to herself that people the world over are having some faaaantabulous smex RIGHT NOW. AS I TYPE. YOUR MIND HAS BEEN BLOWN.<br /><br />Sickens me, why private lives need to be what parents think your private life should be. Even though it's YOURS. Ya know. Like a boss and all that.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />*Ms Mays wasn't fired, the whole thing was dropped because people realized sex in written form is not the devil, AHEM Mrs Apple, aka the person who clued us in...</span><br /><br />More info here: http://nancyholzner.wordpress.com/2011/04/27/support-judy-mays/<br /><br />http://hillarymonahan.com/2011/05/03/heres-to-you-judy-mays/<br /><br />http://blushingbooks.wordpress.com/2011/04/28/in-support-of-judy-mays/<br /><br />http://www.savvyauthors.com/vb/content.php?1115-Illegal-to-write-erotica-in-Pennsylvania<br /><br />http://culture.bitchbuzz.com/the-problem-with-literary-slut-shaming.html<br /><br />http://www.castlesandguns.com/2011/04/hide-your-children-romance-writers-in.htmlKody Nightshadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16862042780957358586noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4162553532890175790.post-23101397038254150082011-06-27T03:44:00.000-07:002011-06-27T03:50:51.813-07:00LOLWHUT?Continuing this weeks y'all can suck it theme, I'd like to update. One, me and Pip from al b damned Im-ed. And had a real conversation. I know I'm tooting my own horn here, but what. Do you and a member from your favorite band IM? No. You do not.<br />Unless your favorite band is Al B Damned.<br /><br />I also got to see Rock Of Ages with my dad as an early BIRFDAY! present. It was indeed face meltingly awesome. And although the seats weren't near the stage like at CATS, ours were in the balcony.

To many famous people. Including Al. B. Damned. <br />Recently though, I ment Al Franken. THE Al Franken, of SNL and democratic fame. We were in Minnesota, and off of our plane and I WAS OVER IT. OVER IT!<br />Seriously, I hate traveling with more than one person. If it's 4 other people, I'm apt to commit matricide.<br />So I was being a grumpy bitch, I mean brat, and just generally growling at strangers when mom was like, 'Ky! It's Al Franken!'<br />Then I got nice.<br />What now! I met a senator!
