Mishaps and Bubble Wrap

Yesterday, in my painting class we were discussing Julie Heffernan's painting "Self-Portrait as Wunder Kabinet". Someone wanted to know what exactly a "wunder kabinet" was, so the professor was explaining how it was a cabinet or room that was first used in the 16th century to store objects such as valuables or antiques. I started giggling, and when my professor asked what I thought was so funny, I told her that it sounded so much like it could be the wardrobe to Narnia.

Gotta love how my mind works....

Today, it was "Superhero day" at school. Our school has an elevator, and as I walked passed, four stormtroopers came out along with some fog from a portable fog machine. Darth Vader proceeded to walk out, look around, and went on his way. My college is the best.

I think no matter which Darth Vader you're assuming this could be, this is pretty darn awesome.

From a few days back....an epic text conversation I had with EmperorWhenua. The randomness that occurred felt necessary enough to share with the rest of you, because even now, I'm not sure why he was texting me random letters or why I thought up such odd replies.

EW: R.
Nukaya: R? R is for....rabies? OMG, you have rabies?!
EW: Y.

Nukaya: O....ouch. The run I just finished really hurt.
EW: Aww.

As myths go, apparently if you butter toast, and it falls, it is supposed to land butter-side down no matter what.

And, cats are supposed to land on their feet no matter what.

So....

Cat+piece of buttered toast strapped to its back=antigravity?

Where is my cat? And where is the bread?

So apparently it's illegal to dress up as Batman in Australia.

And Halloween isn't that far away....

Phy, watch out. I'm headed your way. This Halloween is going to be fun.

Even though it has been out for ages, the Wall-E soundtrack is so great.

Anyway, what are some of your favourite movie soundtracks?

Last day for voting in the final round! If you do vote, thank you so much! (click banner for a link to the voting page)

WANT.



Like, I would sit around my room at school and drink pomegranate juice from these and act really overly refined.

It's funny that you think you'd be drinking pomegranate juice from those.-FN

Lookit how cuuuute! With the little swooshy emo bun hair and everything!

So, I had a dream last night that I was back at college and a tornado hit my school and I remember watching the tornado ripping through a wall while I hid under a desk.

This wouldn't be so weird if it weren't for that when my mom was a kid a tornado hit her school and completely destroyed it.

And you think this was a weird dream. You have no idea what you're in for.-FN

EmperorWhenua: "Iz diz txt RANDUM?"

Well, it did make me laugh when I received it at lunch, to the confusion of the people I was sitting with.
