Psychosomatic Perturbances





A comfortable but chic look for the third day of senior year. Printed and patterned pants seem to be very "in" lately. I purchased some from Goodwill as a lucky find last spring and happily wore them out. Then, suddenly, they were everywhere. I expect this to die down soon but for now I plan to enjoy the abundance of patterned pants to the fullest. Statement pants, especially loose-fitting and baggy as these usually come, can be an effortless way to ....well, make a statement! Pairing them with other patterns is even more eye-catching. All in all, these meet my my requirements : fun, easy to dress up or down, and comfortable.

I managed to set up a very janky "tripod" in the media room. I may be getting the hang of this?

I hope everyone is either bracing themselves for the academic year or enjoying the commencement thoroughly! 'Till later, little watermelon seeds.

Quick Nail Update - Bee and Puppycat Inspiration

Hello! Happy August? (happy birthday to my brother specifically, woo~)
Apologies for not posting in a while! This is just a quick post of my venture into nail art...

Bee and Puppycat parallel. Photography so well done.
I'm new to any nail art, basically anything more than one color on one nail. It turned out kinda thick and untidy up close, but I really liked the colors together nonetheless.

Also I can't begin to tell you about Bee and Puppycat, if you haven't heard about it yet. It's a tv show on YouTube's CartoonHangover channel which have some really neat toons. The creator of the show is Natasha Allegri, who is an awesome artist well-known for her art in Adventure Time. The show itself is SO amazing imo. There's only two episodes but I'm in love. The animation is so pretty and wonderful (obviously I dig the colors) and I just think it's all so hilarious. I really feel for Bee and her way of speech and fantastic outfits.

If you're a fan of Adventure Time, Miyazaki films, or adorable ridiculous hilarity, you should be interested in Bee and Puppycat as well. The episodes are only like 5 minutes, but they makes me so happy!
