Empty the Drawers, I'm Running Away


Photobucket

No not literally, but I have managed to escape to my own world these past few days, which has been quite nice. I must mention an Icelandic group I came across called Parachutes, whose sound is similar to that of Sigur Ros. I already love them, but click on the link to find out for yourself.

Anyways, the lovely Ella, of Rebel Angel, tagged me recently and so here is my attempt at sounding somewhat interesting..

Six Random Things About Me:

1. I like planning everything out in my head
2. I love the feeling of anticipation, like when going to the airport and on airplanes when the captain announces the "final descent."
3. I'm really particular, especially when it comes to food
4. I like to live pretending my life is out of a dream or storybook
5. I can't sleep without music playing
6. I've always wondered what it would have been like to grow up someplace else

Six Random Things I like:

1. undefined poetry
2. abandoned places
3. lily pads
4. foreign accents
5. those dark, cloudy days that most people seem to dislike
6. nantucket nectars lemonade

Six Random Things I don't like:

1. people without manners and people who can't do anything alone
2. limitation and being told I can't do something
3. the idea of the past and memories slipping away
4. anxiety. it's a terrible thing
5. walking through wet grass
6. the radio

Six Blogs I Tag:

1. Qin at the Disco
2. Una Bella Vita
3. Thumbelina
4. Icon
5. Emily So Enchanted
6. Whoever would like to do this

Also, I received this beautiful award from Angela, of Rags and Scribbles. Thank you!

Midterms are Monday and Tuesday...something I am definitely not looking forward to.
Updates after those are done, most likely.

Thank you for the lovely comments and sorry for the recent neglect... school is once again to blame. PSAT's and the rest of my tests are over though, so I will hopefully be updating more often.

Anyways, one of my favorite photostreams on Flickr, at the moment, belongs to Olivia Bee.
I would post her photos, but I would also want to get her permission first, since I would feel awful if someone were to steal any of them.
So, for now just click on the link.

Tomorrow I am finally dropping off my Diana film to be developed from Italy! I can't remember anything of what is on the roll, so it will just have to be a surprise.
Expect scans sometime soon.
