So Ive already posted something about a female that I really enjoy, Patricia Day.
Here is another lass that I think is particularly amazing

Amanda Palmer

Heidi Montag/ Sociological imagination

I have a soft spot for the Hills , I know its quite sad.
In my sociology lecture today we were learning about a man who wrote 'the sociological imagination' which is basically the handbook of sociology.
So im practicing using my sociological imagination.
one thing that stood out was the 'I' and 'me' factors. Children don't know 'me' they know 'i'.
'I' happens when we are first born , we don't understand the 'rules' of society , we don't understand that screaming in the supermarket is not socially accepted. 'I' is when we don't understand that the world doesn't revolve around ourselves , that the people in our lives aren't just there for us and we don't understand that everyone else has their own wants and needs.
'Me' is when we have become more 'socially constructed' , we learn the rules of socially for example when we walk into a class room we don't turn and face the back of the room light up a cigarette and start yelling .
We also generally feel compassion for our significant others and understand they aren't there to please us.

'Me' also involves a couple other things
1. we become aware of who we are and what we think about ourselves.
2. we become construct what we think others think of us
3. we now try to become what we think others think of us
3a. we try to morph ours selves and become socially accepted.
3b. we now try to become socially accepted and fail and wear the seal of shame

Now i most likely got that a bit wrong but that's what i took from the lecture.

Here is Heidi Montag who has tried to 'improve' herself. She is so ridiculously in her own little world that she has no idea what she has done to herself.
Im not sure if she has got this surgery because she was deeply unhappy with herself or she is just so intent on pleasing others.
anyway here is hollywoods tragic idea of beauty

Patricia Day

I think shes fabulous

Risks

So I'm not one to take many risks.
But the other day I took my first and Ive decided that this year I wont be afraid of them.

The other day when I was driving home from work i was thinking how miserable my job makes me , not just miserable but I'm actually getting ill from it.
So I sat down when I got home and decided how I can take the steps to feeling better.
I quit my job and applied for Uni.
You may not think that's not much of a risk but I haven't even been accepted yet and I'm out of a job.
I'm not living at home and I'm not ready to regress into that 'daddy can i have some money?' stage again , I haven't been there since i was 14 and I don't plan to go back.

Ive noticed that I tend to stick to the safer path ,this doesn't mean I'm a boring person but it does mean I can miss out, whether it be trying a bit of exotic food or missing a big break because I can be shy.

So 2010 is going to be about taking risks.


Here's some photos on google under 'Risk'

Freaks

I havent seen this film yet but I hear it had a lot of meaning behind it , especially considering the time it was made





I need to start writing more and stop being lazy with Videos and photos till then

So its been ages since my last post and a while since Christmas but i thought i might as well Post this blog because its was an amazing day.

I was lucky enough to get the part of Snow White in the Elerslie Santa Parade.
When i say got the part, I mean i didn't want to be a fairy I wanted to be Snow White.


Before the Parade



Me on the back of Hannah's Scooter with Rory who i think is suppose to be a reindeer








This is me at my 6Th Birthday , looking very excited if i do say so

Converge

So i heard today that one of my favourtie bands are coming to New Zealand early next year (on the 12th of March to be exact).
This is going to be fucking rad, my mate Rory saw them a few years ago in London and he said they were amazing and he even got to have a chat with the singer who was really impressed that Rory was from New Zealand.



This music isnt for everyone so i want you to know Im not forcing you to listen to this video
