The Postman Always Rings Twice
Okay, if you haven't seen this movie you need to.
Lana Turner as Cora- that's enough to make you watch it in the first place, but on top of that, it's a love/murder story with an ending that will make you seriously want to scream.
Anywayyyyyyy I was at the book store with my best guy will, and there's this GIANT book all about Lana that I want but don't have 35 dollars to spend on. Soooo I just told my boyfriend about it and hopefully he gets the hint ;).
Ha I've just realized my blog has turned into the Lana Turner blog. I'll try not to gush anymore!

new hair, new outlook
That's my new brown hair.
I like it.
On the other side of things, I've been really pissed off at a lot of people lately and I'm tired of putting up with bratty bitches and spoiled people from milwaukee. I'm fed up with everyone's bull shit.
Over the past week I've met, among others, a person who was raped for 5 years, a person who was stalked by an online predator, over 20 people who have attempted suicide, and just as many drug addicts. My life, compared to them, is amazing.
Meeting and making friends with all of those people has made me realize that almost everyone I know takes nearly everything they own and nearly everything they're given for granted, and most of them throw a lot of stuff away because they don't realize their worth.
My friend is angry at me because he thinks I sabotaged his chances with a girl, and a week ago it made me feel really bad about myself, but now I just laugh when I think about it, because compared to the friends I've made recently he looks like a baby crying over spilled milk.
I've been getting into a lot of arguments with people over the past couple of days, mostly because I realize that they're being ungrateful for what they have. I wish that everyone could go through what I've gone through so that they could see their lives from that perspective.
Anyway, I hope this post at least makes whoever reads it think a little bit more about their lives and their problems, or maybe makes them appreciate what they have and what they're given.

Princess Tuvstarr and friends
I just stumbled upon these really really amazing pieces of art by John Bauer, and I wanted to share them with you. They're from "Among Gnomes and Trolls" which is a Swedish annual publication about traditional folklore and fairytales. Most of these are from 1913-1915, the most famous being the one of Princess Tuvstarr sitting by the pool from "The story of Skutt the moose and little Princess Tuvstarr". Does anyone know this story or any of the other ones? I can't find them anywhere, in english at least. Anyway, here they are, enjoy!

Bored!
There's nothing on tv... and I have something like 8000 channels, that's pretty horrible.
I was watching a little Lana Turner earlier, I think I'll probably have to name my daughter Lana after her.
Who else thinks she's gorgeous?! Marilyn Monroe my ass, Lana is more interesting and could actually act.
Anyywayyy, Twilight comes out on thursday at midnight (technically Friday) and I'm suuuper pissed that I can't go! I've been reading Midnight Sun to fill the hole.
Comment or whatever, I'll get back to you

On a Candlewax Train to Paradise...
Listening to Buddy Wakefield...
Alright, since I've got this I should probably say a few things about myself.
My name is Ellen, which is pretty boring.
Blonde hair, green eyes, big mind.
I've been into the theater scene for a pretty long time, it's something that really interests me.
I know a lot of useless information, but that's okay because I know one day it'll be important.
Love music, like everyone else with a brain.
I think animals are really amazing, I'm very drawn to them.
Thinking outside of the box a lot.
Old movies are a hobby of mine, whenever I'm bored I just turn on TCM. Lana Turner is a big influence.
I'm a dreamer- in my opinion, your imagination is the most important thing you'll ever own.
I'm never good at writing things about myself, so I'll leave it at that.
