I wanna be a Andrew Eldritch too. I seem to be advancing very slowly now though, with such limited computer access...

Poor kitty 
My grandma told me she got heaps of cats when she was younger. When I was little and living with her there was only one survived, I thought he/she must had been really old. He/she was never kept in the house, always wandered around the neighbourhood, but always came back everyday. We got so attached to him/her, and I think a part of him/her really was really connected to my gran, like, he/she must had been a part of her life even before I was born, and the idea to ditch him to a strange place would extremely upset me. And my grandpa seemed to love him/her too.
He/she's gone now  . I don't even know how or when or where.
Sorry for the pronouns doubling, I don't know whether he/she was a he or she.

I'm a she, not a he.  Yeah Pookie didn't really like being caught... one specific hiding spot of hers was under the corner cabinet in the kitchen, the gap was just big enough for her to crawl in there and be out of my reach. >_>
I'm in a bit of trouble lol, I need to come up with a theme for my personal art project for my portfolio course, but I can't think of anything fully developed enough to use.
I want to do something creepy and creative with hospitals, and three ideas we need to incorporate within our chosen theme (well, we need to use at least one of them) are "looking through a peephole", "plain versus pattern", and "isolated detail". I'm thinking along the lines of terrifying crazy doctors, distorted architecture, checkerboard tiled floors, etc. I'm into experimental, abstract and comic book style artwork, so my work would probably come out like that.
Anyone fire any more ideas at me?

Oww, sorry, haha.
Sorry can't come up with any idea right now because I'm currently lacking creativity and anything else but sloth in that matter.
I'll see what I can do later.

The crazy doctors idea sounds good. the only thing I can conjure up with hospitals is operations....0_0 I suppose that doesn't really help either....sorry.

Magpie, you know you are valued no matter what label some website arbitrarily attaches to your name.
-------
I wish there was a new Batman movie to go see at the theaters,
-------
Floss comes in flavors ... that strikes me as strange.
------
There is a magazine called Mental Floss that I like a lot, however.
------
Also, those Brazillian g-string bikinis that are nicknamed "dental floss"; I like them a lot.
... yes, indeed I do!
Do they come in flavors? *wicked grin*

I have a question here. Is it wrong to be solitary?

Sounds a bit overdone and cliche. Try this: hospital operating room with the doctor cutting open the patient and inside the chest cavity is a doctor operating on a patient. Aspects of this have been done before, but I can't recall this specific version. Or to play off a Roald Dahl story, a homeless guy gets a tattoo of a beautiful woman on his back, goes to the hospital, has his back skin removed and the 'painting' winds up in an art gallery with many others.

Absolutely not. Just because most people rely on constant company with others doesn't mean it's wrong to prefer to be alone.
Niksaa: I can see where you're coming from, but I need to have a theme for a whole project which will encompass a lot of experimental work and eventually over twenty individual final pieces of work. I like the idea you've suggested there but I'd then need to think up 19 other things to go with it. :0

No, but it's wrong to end up in solitary.
So whether you walk alone or with others, be sure to walk on the right side of the law.
And that's about as seriously as anyone should answer that question.

Maybe I am still confused on the whole of the project; but you can play on several versions of this selling of the body. A play on a lottery version of this same theme: several down trodden persons milling about anxiously awaiting the results of something and the 'reveal' would be a blood type or organ match, which causes rejoicing in one of the people.

Why, thank you Ben. After a crappy weekend and a bad couple of days after, that was something I really needed to hear. Thanks!

As I was flicking through the pages of todays Guradian newspaper, when I found the Music & Film section I noticed Andrew Eldritch was in the top corner. Went to page 5 to discover an interesting article on Goth. Anyways I wanted to show you guys so I thought I'd stick it here (I didn't want to make an entirely new thread on it, as it isn't that important)
http://arts.guardian.co.uk/filmandmu...882764,00.html
Enjoy

Hmm. I'm bored so I thought I'd post here. I'm very cold. I'm also very tired. Tomorow I have the joy of doing an essay on why the revolutions in Italy around 1820 failed. My pet dog is watching me as I type, in a rather sinister way 0_0

Where I live, they call it "booty floss". This store up the street from me sells them in flavors...
Yesh...
Well, aside from that--GO JILLIAN!

Why is it that guys will tell you that they like you when you are with them and spend the night but when you tell them that you do not want to have sex with them for a while they totally turn around and say that they aren't interested in you as anything more than a friend?
--------------------------------------------------------
Also when did gothic and punk clothing become mainstream in the US I walked through the mall and in the front of a Claires store there was gothic and punk clothing. Then as I was walking around I saw girls who were preppy as shit wearing gothic clothing and talking about some pop group it made me want to slit their throats.

I got a spiked wristband from Claire's Accessories a few years ago. It was pretty nice quality, but the spikes were screwed on so I lost a couple of them. <_<
It just amuses me when I see "Claire's goths" out and about though because they always look like they're trying to pull off a gothic fashion model look, and it just doesn't work...

You shouldn't buy stuff from Claires.
It's seriously low quality. I brought this lacy crucifix necklace & when I put it on, it snapped. I brought another (because they were cheap) & again it snapped. I went through 2 more before I decided to give up.
Also I brought some 'angel wings' from there, but after a while they don't look so good anymore. I've re-named them the 'pigeon wings'.
