Kelly's obsession to destroy every broom she sees someone holding.
25 things about me, tagged by Lizz and Haley. I think I did one of these a few years ago on Flickr, so I hope I don’t repeat myself!
1. I own too many dolls. Really, far too many. But I can’t bear selling them. I do it at times out of absolute necessity, but I really, really hate it!
2. I like to run. I started it about a year and a half ago because I’d had a bad break-up six months previously and needed to focus my mind on something. It’s become a bit of an obsession – I ran a marathon this year, and I find that my mood can be almost wholly dependent on how well my running is going (I’m not always nice to be around when I’m injured!)
3. I’m obsessed with mirrors. I’m either avoiding them completely, or scanning my reflection repeatedly, depending on my mood. In restaurants I try not to sit opposite a window I can see myself in, as I get distracted by looking at my reflection, and it’s kind of embarrassing!
4. I’m really retarded with toothpaste tubes, the kind with the pump on. I break tube after tube, I can’t understand how I have a degree but can’t work a toothpaste tube.
5. I like to wear bright colours, I’m definitely not one of those people who lives in black. In fact, I mostly dislike black being close to my face, because I think it washes me out. The only colour I won’t wear is lilac (for the very same reason).
6. Although I wear bright colours on the outside, my taste in underwear is extremely dull and practical. I favour flesh-coloured T-shirt bras, and no-VPL knickers, much to the disappointment of many a boyfriend!
7. My pet hate in people is flakiness (in terms of personality, not dandruff – though I don’t like that much either). Sadly, flaky people seem to disguise themselves rather well, so I end up befriending them, only to realise further down the line that they’re completely useless.
8. I’m severely body dysmorphic and worry about whether or not I look fat every single day. It’s nauseating – things are nowhere near as bad as they were when I was in my early-20s, but I still wish it could be better.
9. I still watch Neighbours. I find it hilarious (in a ridiculous way) and I really, really want to go to Melbourne and go on the Neighbours trail. I would be sooo excited to meet the cast members!!
10. In addition to Neighbours, I still watch Home and Away. I also watch 90210, and latterly, One Tree Hill. Oh yes, I watch some very bad TV.
11. I want to kill the couple on the match.com ad, who “like old movies, like The Godfather 3” (it’s on right now). They’re dreadful, and I hope they don’t breed.
12. I plan to train as a pilates instructor next year. I’ve become obsessed with the benefits of core strength, so I figure that I may as well teach it to others (rather than boring people about it in general conversation like I do now!)
13. When I move in with my boyfriend next year, the first thing I want to buy is a ragdoll kitten.
14. When I move in with my boyfriend next year, the first thing I will ACTUALLY have to buy will be lots of glass cabinets to house my dolls, so that said ragdoll kitten does not destroy them.
15. At the moment I work three days a week from home, and two in the office. I have a horrible habit of doing no work at all on a Monday (in fact, I’ve done just that today) which makes the rest of my week suck. I never learn!
16. Although I’m not mad about chocolate, I have become oddly addicted to chocolate-covered rice cakes. They are yummy!
17. I’m a bit OCD about certain things. If I’m watching the TV, the volume has to be on a number that is divisible by five. I eat crisps in fives too. My boyfriend finds it hilarious to put the volume on 14 and hide the remote, or feed me six crisps then run off with the bag.
18. I’m absolutely starving right now. All the running means that I have to eat really often, and that I get maaaad if I can’t eat when I need to!
19. I think that the two most overrated celebrities of the last fifteen years have been Cheryl Cole and Princess Diana.
20. I really like guinea pigs. I had them when I was small and they lit up my world, I squeal whenever I see a picture of guinea pigs because I think they are so lovely. I couldn’t own them again though, as they don’t live long and would break my heart after just a very few years.
21. I don’t Twitter, because some random girl in the US already has the ID “Blondiepops” and I stubbornly refuse to call myself anything else.
22. I hate religion. Hate it. It’s done so much harm in the world that the word pretty much leaves me cold.
23. The above pic is of me with my Grandma. She was fantastic, and had the best Scottish accent in the world. She passed away in 2008, and I miss her.
24. I am experiencing big love for vintage Christmas decorations this year.
25. Now that I have written this, I am off to de-box some new dolls, then go to a pilates class. Both of which are very “me” activities!
I hope that wasn’t too boring!

Je fais une fixation sur Althéa, mais d'un autre coté, comme je lui ai fabriqué un headband et que mes lys sont éclos, ça aurait été dommage de ne pas faire quelques photos d'elle, ma demie elfe ♥
As you may already know, Me and Michael took the girls to the lake. One of the women who live down by the lake were telling us about how her neighbor was moving to the city, and didn't know what to do with her koi fish that were currently living in her front pond. So her husband dumped them into the lake the night before the move, and by the time the locals realized what had happened the couple had been long gone. The woman begged us to take them, and at least flush them away. But as you could imagine, the girls were deeply touched by the little koi's ill fate, so they pushed Michael into taking them home. So for about four hours we thrashed through the lake, catching koi. It was easy at first, because most of them stayed in the shallow region of the lake near the grassy area. A few big ones went as deep as eighteen feet. We caught sixteen koi, one of them completely "flipped out" when Lauren stuffed him in her bathing suit, and ended up dying of fright. I love these fish, they're are so elegant and friendly, except for one, who Anna Maria concluded was either pregnant or on her period. (the things kids learn). So all the girls are downstairs in the kitchen coming up with names for their fish. Of course, they named one Jake. So far we have Selena Gomez, Lil Wayne III, Kenan Thompson, and Cinderblock.
Ok...really...I was soooo obsessed with finding this sign and taking a few pics of it and I don't know why!!! I even called the Hotel concierge to tell me where the hell it was!!! I should have stopped on the median but we didn't cause it's kind of a highway with alot of traffic. So basically after you pass this sign...you are on "The Strip"...Las Vegas Blvd.

this is from the recent series of nudes i did, most of the slides are from all over europe from when my dad back packed there for months just after he got out of university. the idea was show the shape of the body and not necessarily too much detail, i chose female because frankly i do not find anything beautiful about male genitals and i was going for beauty. although, male nudes can be made very useful among many other topics. please enjoy (said in the same way its mentioned in hell yes by beck). i told you he was obsessed with fountains.

Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam 2011
De Zweedse kunstenaar Nathalie Djurberg (1978) is vooral bekend van haar animatiefilms, die op het eerste gezicht lief en onschuldig lijken. In haar werk behandelt Djurberg thema's als obsessie, macht, genot, begeerte en geweld. Deze tentoonstelling ‘Snakes Knows it’s Yoga’ is het grootste overzicht van hun werk tot nu toe.
Speciaal voor Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen richten Djurberg en Berg de grote Bodonzaal van 1500m2 in. De installatie ‘Snakes Knows it’s Yoga’ is een project dat bestaat uit sculpturen en projecties van animatiefilms van Nathalie Djurberg. De ruimte is gevuld met de experimentele muziek van Hans Berg. Bovendien worden tien vroegere werken uit de periode 2005-2010 getoond.
The Swedish artist Nathalie Djurberg (1978) is known above all for her animated films, which seem sweet and innocuous only at a first glance. In her art, Djurberg treats themes such as obsession, power, pleasure, desire, and violence. This ‘Snakes Knows it’s Yoga’ exhibition is the largest ever overview of their work.
Djurberg and Berg have created an installation for the 1,500m2 of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen’s spacious Bodon Gallery. The ‘Snakes Knows it’s Yoga’ installation is a project composed of sculptures and projections of animated films, the air filled with experimental music by Hans Berg. The presentation includes ten earlier works from the period 2005-2010.

My Obsessions set
~Macro Mondays~
Theme: Smallest Devices
As well as having an obsession with tweezing my eyebrows, I am known to clean my ears more often then is required.
I know that the wax is there for a reason and it can become unhealthy to clean the ears frequently. I have cut down a lot but I used to have a daily (sometimes twice daily) obsession with jamming these little Q-tips in my ears.
I remember in grade four a girl in our class who never cleaned her ears. The orange wax caked her whole inner ear and this is what started my obsession, mostly in fear that my ears would end up in the same state. The vision plagued me for years. Later on it was just the "eargasms" that I craved.
I heart Q-tips
