Today you are You, that is truer than true.

There is no one alive who is Youer than You.

♥ I am fascinated by Devon Aoki’s features, she looks like a doll to me. Love her in the December issue of Numero Tokyo from ModelCouture:

♥  I want this pair in different colours, peppermint green, baby pink, purple and yellow:

♥  Love the heart-shaped specs

♥ Hayley Westenra covers Japanese songs. I especially liked her cover of Mika Nakashima’s Yuki no Hana (Snowflower) which was originally from a Korean drama, I’m Sorry I Love You.

We could share the very first snowflowers of the year
In your arms where I belong
Watch as the city turns from grey to white
The day turns into night
Love that floats like wayward clouds, that’s not what we’re about
Sure and strong is my love for you
And it comes from the bottom of my heart

♥ These lovely illustrations from Sarah Hankinson:

♥  My unrelenting crush on Matthew Gray Gubler has been going on since I have been hooked on Criminal Minds. I am so hooked on this series that the last episode I watched reduced me to tears. Anyway, this guy’s so awesome! I liked this particular section from the Mademoiselle Robot interview, it just makes you go “awww” :

What is the craziest thing you have ever done for a love interest?

Wow…let me think…I have done some pretty crazy stuff…  I once hand made a girlfriend a 50 page leather bound book.  It was an illustrated fairy tale about a princess and an eccentric magician.  The magician had his heart broken so badly in the past that instead of keeping it in his chest where it could easily get hurt again, he kept it locked up in a rusty trunk under his bed, where it had withered into a shriveled apricot.  a lot happens that cant really be summed up in one paragraph, but at the end, his apricot heart swells to the size of a house and they end up living happily ever after inside of it.  It took me about a month to make, it was all rhyming, hand painted… something i was pretty gosh darn proud of.  I really poured a lot into it, and I think its filled with some of my best paintings yet.  Sadly in real life the story didnt end as happy as it did in the book.  Lets just say i’m living alone in that giant apricot heart at the moment.

I once gave a girl a bloody fake ear in a TIffany jewlery box with a letter that said, “will you Gogh to prom with me” yeah, I guess I’m a romantic.
