They danced down the streets

I can't even tell you how much I'm looking forward to this film:

 


I have tried reading On The Road a couple of times, but I can't seem to get into it. Which is embarrassing, really, since it's such a cult classic, and I do love Kerouac's style of writing. Yet there's something that just doesn't resonate with me, so I'll lose interest in the story and start skipping pages... Which doesn't really count as reading in my book. Anyway - for some reason, I'm completely convinced that the film is going to be amazing! A road movie in the truest sense of the word, with lovely actors (I have developed somewhat of a girl crush on Kristen Stewart after watching The Runaways and Welcome to the Rileys) and that beautiful, nostalgic feel... How could it not be amazing?

After a week of train travelling and exams (My Italian exam went better than I thought it would, thankfully) I'm itching to do something with my hands again. I'll run out to the shop in a bit to get some more wire for my candle holder making, and I had an idea to pick up some sort of clay while I'm at it - I really want to make a ceramic owl for my desk. On that note, aren't these animal trends kind of random? A couple of years ago, all you could find in the shops were elephant necklaces, and now it's the same with owls... If it were up to me, seals would be next.


(And yes, I changed the name of the blog to the name I first had in mind, to better match the url. Thinking about these things is probably a sign that you have too much time on your hands...)
