Yessss! I'm back, babe! Well again and back because LJ was being a doofus and not letting me type here, in rich text. Oh lovely, easy rich text. *hugs you* Ahem...anywho...what was the last time I posted something? I think it was the 17th, right? I'm too lazy to check so I'll just say that. So...a lot has happened since then, for example, I got my hair did on Saturday. It's now dyed black and I have a fuller bang and a a mop top. Oh yes, it's quite Beatle-esque and I can now shake my head from side to side like The Beatles during the "oooohh's", without my bangs messing up drastically, like before. Sunday was even better than Saturday because that's when the record show was. Woohoo! To quote Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Now that reminds me, before I get into what I got and what happened on Sunday, I'll speak on it.
Dancing With The Stars. Now I'm not one to watch that stupid show, just because it's usually lame and the fact that it's on ABC which is the worst network ever because they cancelled Life on Mars, one of my fave shows. They just don't know what's good and they clearly didn't advertise the show enough because if they did more people would've watched. Anyway...before I go on too much of a rant about ABC [Already Been Cancelled], I'll tell you all why I'm watching DWTS this season. It's all because of Melissa Joan Hart! Yay! She's dancing on it this season and she's just fab. If there's no other reason to watch it, she's the one. She still looks absolutely great and just like she did on "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" and I really hope she wins it all. She's still quite magical and happy go lucky and she looks like she's just having genuine fun. Now, onto the record show.
Sunday was quite amazing. I got pretty many Beatles records and I can't wait to listen to them. I also got a David Bowie tour book, which was absolute luck that I even got in the first place...because...this other dude was looking at it first and I was sure he'd buy it, but he actually turned out to be real nice and once I mentioned that I adored Bowie, he let me look at it. Then later on, when I was buying it, he looked over and told me that he was on the fence about buying it and he knew that I would buy it after he gave me the chance to look at it. I'm so glad he was so nice because now that's 2 tour books I have of Bowie's. All the records I got were Beatles, one being this rad picture disc, a cut out of all four boys on it, it being an interview with them where they supposedly tell all. I'll have to listen to it and see for myself. Heh. One thing I regret was that I didn't get this one T.Rex album because it was 25 dollars. I thought it was outrageous for one album, but then, while searching eBay, I saw it listed for 35 dollars and thought that maybe it wasn't that bad. -L- Maybe the guy that had it will still have it next time and then I'll try to haggle.
Speaking of Marc, it's still September, which means his birthday is coming up on the 30th. Tomorrow is actually his son, Rolan Bolan's birthday. That's quite awesome in itself and oh, I really need to keep this promise to myself. I AM GOING TO WATCH BORN TO BOOGIE THIS MONTH. I just need to and I planned to so I have to...it has to be done. Earlier this year on Bowie's birthday, that being January 8th, I watched Labyrinth and the Reality Tour, to celebrate. I really need to find more time to do the things I want to do. I feel like I've been putting off so much and just falling asleep and doing nothing. I'm so lazy and I have to do something about it.
Oh oh oh oh! My dad told me that Pee Wee Herman was on The Jay Leno Show and I just had to see it. One of my fave movies of all time is Pee Wee's Big Adventure and wow, I immediately found the video of him on the show and he's looks and sounds exactly the same! He looks great and he was so funny too. Pee Wee Herman is just amazing and it's fab to see that he's working with that persona again, because it's obviously still effective for laughs. Quite cosmic, if I do say so myself. I'll supply the video, so you dolls out there can take a gander at Pee Wee himself.
Hmm...that's really all I have to say for the time being. Maybe I'll do a part 2 blog for today or something, if it strikes my fancy. Tomorrow I plan to do a Jem and the Holograms inspired outfit and I'm all ready planning that in my head. It's bound to be fab if I can work my imagination. We'll see, well hmm I'll see to be honest. If you don't know who Jem is...do some research, lovelies. You're truly missing out if you have no clue. 80s hair, yes!
PEACE & LOVE.

MY.THREE.FAVORITE.THINGS.
Sep. 17th, 2009 | 08:29 pm
location: Mars
mood: 
pissed off
music: Survivor. lol
Those are: Bowie-ing, Bolan-ing, and Beatle-ing. If you have no idea what I'm talking about and you can't even figure out what I mean, then I shall explain it, for sure. That's what I'm here for. Heh...anywho, let me reflect on what happened yesterday, since I didn't exactly get to post anything. Hmm...those words aren't the phrasing I want. Get to post? No. I was TOO LAZY to post after so much Bolan-ing. Maybe that gives you another idea of what my three favorite things could be.
"Yesterday...all my troubles seemed so far away..."
All right. As you all know, or as you all SHOULD know, it was the day of Marc Bolan's death, well 32 years ago yesterday. I celebrated his life, by listening to his music and wearing a sticker on my face that read "R.I.P. Marc Bolan". If you really want to see my face, then head on over to my Myspace, which is www.myspace.com/kimbowiexd. I took pretty many pictures of my outfit, with all my pins, including my favorite one that reads "T.Rex Lives". Absolutely fabulous. I listened to pretty many of my vinyls, jamming good upstairs alone because I'm the only one in my family that likes glam rock, well is OBSESSED with glam rock and Marc Bolan and David Bowie in particular. After listening to my vinyls, I listened to my CDs as well, hearing some songs I neglected and now love with all my heart. I really can't explain how much I love Marc Bolan and T.Rex. Their music is seriously one of my tops of all time. Everything he did is wonderful and total magic in my book. I just know that Marc is up there jiving with the rest of T.Rex, minus Bill Legend and Gloria Jones, but everyone else having anything to do with the band is up there. It's pretty eerie, but at least Marc isn't alone. He'll always be such a bopping imp and a fantastic elfin man. May he rest in peace and may his legacy and music live on forever.
Along with the celebration, there was some ignorance, and it came from my mom. I was telling her how my Life and Health teacher knew about Marc, but only due to the song "Get It On". I told my mom that I hate when people say they only know that song and she, probably without thinking goes, "Why do you hate it? Because that's all he's known for?" To say the least I was stopped dead in my tracks and the only thing I could mutter was "Excuse you?" and she actually answered back, but instead of repeating her "off the cuff" remark, which was probably her true opinion, she changed it up stating, "Why do you hate it because that's what most people know him for?" I wasn't exactly happy with that answer either and replied with "No. That's what most AMERICAN'S only know him for" and with that, I walked away. I didn't need that disrespect towards Marc on the day of his death and it just showed me how my mom really doesn't care about anything I like. She says she does, she buys it, which I'm grateful for, but I still believe she couldn't and doesn't care less.
Anyway, back to the future, errr...present. Dang, I'm truly obsessed with the past and future, it's like this reality I'm living in, doesn't even really exist. Allll rightey then, in the words of Tamera Mowry and Jim Carey. Bowie-ing, Bolan-ing, and Beatle-ing. I think those three things are pretty self explanatory, meaning that I'll use one of those whenever I listen to, look at, relate to, do anything involving, Bowie, Bolan, or the Beatles. Needless to say I was doing a lot of Bolan-ing yesterday. Today, I didn't do anything that relates to my three favorite things. Instead, since I had to wake up at 6am, I took a nap for a couple of hours and then made dinner. I plan to do some Beatle-ing tomorrow, like listening to the two vinyls I got on Sunday and hopefully of course, listen to my remasters.
Lots of plans, lots of school jive to figure out too, but I'll procrastinate and hold off the boring stuff until Sunday, after the record show that is. Definitely after the record show. I have Monday as well, for the tues/thurs homework.
I wish this journal would stop glitching. I'm typing in all HTML because the Rich Text won't load, for some odd reason. Oi vey. Hopefully it fixes itself for tomorrow. Anywho, yesterday, while Bolan-ing, I watched another cute and magical video that I shall share. I definitely need to watch "Born to Boogie" this month. This vid's a clip from it. Or an easter egg on the DVD, I'll have to see if I can find it.

OH.YES.BEATLEMANIA.
Sep. 15th, 2009 | 09:43 pm
mood: 
calm
music: SPACEBALL RICOCHET--{t.rex}
Oh yes. It came. It came! I got my Beatles Stereo box set in the mail today. I came home and was greeted with a big box from Barnes and Noble on the front step. I was so happy that I had my sister let me in through the front door. I opened the box right away and was so ecstatic to actually touch all the CDs in my hands. Wow. The box set blows my mind and if anyone is thinking about getting it...I say go for it if you have the money because it is soooo so so so so worth it. I opened all of the individual CDs and all ready ripped them to my lap top. I can't wait to listen to all the songs when I find more time. I'm super excited to hear everything remastered.
This week is surely something. Tomorrow is Marc Bolan's death day. I know I've been saying this a lot, but I just want everyone to know. CELEBRATE HIS LIFE. I know I will be. I shall play records and CDs and what not tomorrow for him and spread his music to the world. I know that that seems unreal, but I mean what I say. I can't wait to see my other Bolan fans on the internet remember him for the magical person he is. It's surely something. I know I'll be wearing "R.I.P. Marc Bolan" on my face or my shirt tomorrow. Spread the word about him and in two weeks everyone can celebrate his life again on his birthday, September 30th.
This weekend is busy for me and I'm always happy to be busy on the weekend. On Saturday I'm getting my hair dyed and cut I suppose. Getting it black in color and something done with my bangs probably. It isn't all figured out yet, but heck...I have time to figure it out before Saturday. On Sunday, I'm going to a record show, it's actually called an LP Blow Out, but it's not like it's the first time I've been to one. I truly hope to find a lot of records I haven't seen and for cheap. I'm super excited, like I always am and I'll be even more thrilled if someone there has pins or badges, so I can hopefully find a Janis Joplin one. The past certainly has my soul in a choke hold. I need to get working on that time machine so I can go back and see the Beatles and save Bolan and marry Bowie and all the other jazz. Oh it'd be wonderful. I can just imagine it.
Okay, well that pretty much ends it for today...I know I didn't exactly say much, but tomorrow I'll most likely have a lot to say about Marc Bolan and I'll share some vids and pics and what not. I'll share one right now. Here's Marc singing "Spaceball Ricochet". It's an autobiography for him, saying that the song is definitely about him. He sings it so lovely and it seems like he's the only one in the world when you watch this. He sounds so vulnerable and it's just magic. This is from 1971, 6 years before his death in '77. Watch it, learn to love it. He makes you smile, right? He holds that power over me, that's for sure.
( MOVIE.TIME. )
Thanks for reading, if anyone does. I hope that I'm making at least one person out there recognize Marc Bolan and all the lovely people of the past.
PEACE & LOVE.

OH.MY.BLINKIN'.GOODNESS.
Sep. 14th, 2009 | 07:37 pm
location: Mars
mood: 
bitchy
music: Sounds of the Patriots on the TV.
There are tons of things that I want to reflect on today. The title hints at either negative or positive reflections, you'll just have to read and see. First off, before I say anything, I want to tell everyone how bummed I am. My Beatles Stereo Remastered box set didn't come today. I was so thrilled to perhaps see it on my doorstep, but alas. Needless to say, I was depressed for the rest of the time. I actually went upstairs to sleep and just forget about reality for a while. Right now, I'm still bummed, but I'm hoping for it tomorrow. I know I shouldn't get my hopes up to possibly have them crushed again, but I know I will anyway. There's really no way I can't. Okay, onto the first of the "Oh my blinkin' goodness"'s. If that's even grammatically correct.
Oh my blinkin' goodness! Kanye last night at the VMA's...what a total doofus. I know everyone's been talking about this, but I feel free to reflect on it too. Now, don't get me wrong, I didn't waste my time watching the VMA's, I just watched a recap on the internet. Like I said, I think he's a total doofus. He always thinks he has to be in the spotlight and in fact, no one wants to see his face. It's not our fault that his latest album practically flopped and it lacks the charm of his last ones tenfold. Seriously, he changed his style of songwriting and composure and in my opinion, the singles from it have sucked. He should've stuck to rapping, because that's where he has the possibility to shine, but alas. Just that he stole the spotlight from a 19 year old girl. Does he have a heart? It seems that he doesn't and that he's a total idiot that everyone seems to hate now. This isn't the first time that he's done something as dumb as this. I'm sure everyone remembers last year's VMA's when he threw a tantrum, like the little kid he is, all because Britney Spears got to perform instead of him. Newsflash Kanye, no one likes you because of your antics, you flippin' dummy. It was absolutely lovely that Beyonce made up for Kanye's stupidity and let Taylor shine. Very lovely, then again Beyonce's a fabulously lovely person.
Oh my blinkin' goodness! Lady GaGa's performance at the VMA's was totally magical. It was like nothing I've ever seen before. She always raises the bar and takes it t the top. Last night was no exception. She's such a talent and I love her to pieces. She makes music interesting and mixes it with art, which a lot of people today can't or don't do. Art and music do go hand in hand and Lady GaGa knows how to work that. Her fashion sense is another factor that makes her absolutely amazing. Fashion, music, art. You saw all those things last night when Miss GaGa hit the stage and when she started to bleed, it was a total shock, but it was all part of the "play". I love that she loves horror and it was awesome that she incorporated that into her performance. If you have no idea what I'm talking about then I shall supply you all with the video. I've watched it twice all ready and oh, to Chio in the morning...watch the vid, man! If you still think GaGa is a hermaphrodite then this vid will show you the truth because her outfit doesn't leave much to the imagination. She's a woman you dope. Get over yourself and your stupid thoughts about that rumor.
Oh my blinkin' goodness! Trish Stratus is the guest host on RAW tonight! I so can't wait to see her again. It always fab to see a real diva in the WWE again, even though she's just going to be the GM for one night, that being tonight. I hope she gets to teach one of the skanks that call themselves wrestlers, a lesson. That would make my night. I'm sure she'll look great, she always does and wow it magical. Last week was Bob Barker, this week Trish?! I love the whole special guest every week dealio. Absolutely amazing on the WWE's part. If nothing else is exciting, having Trish as the special guest will be.
Oh my blinkin' goodness! I read in the beatlespics community today that Mark Chapman, the bloke that shot John Lennon, is going to be able to have Playstation and Xbox in his cell, amongst other inmates. That makes me terribly sick. First the flippin' murderers get free health care/medical care, then they get free college educations, if they want it and now THIS? No, it just isn't right. What has happened or is happening to our legal system? Why is it that people in prison are better off then a lot of people trying to make it in the real world? It's horribly wrong and backwards and all this "special treatment" for criminals should be stopped. Honestly...if those creeps get all that, then heck I want to go to jail or prison and get all those perks. Dang, I wouldn't have to work and I'd get free college and get to sit back, relax and play video games. Just ain't right, just ain't right. Now, back onto the direct topic of Mark Chapman. He's an absolute creep and even though they say he's on good behavior, he doesn't deserve and he shouldn't have the right to possibly play and imitate John Lennon by playing The Beatles Rock Band. It makes me want to puke! I can't stand this guy and I really don't think this should be allowed to happen. He killed John Lennon for no good reason and now he has the chance to see the guy he killed, in video game, digital form. Absolutely horrifying and wow, I just can't believe criminals get the Beatles Rock Band before I do and for free! What is the world coming to? Seriously...everything's all topsy turvy, like the MC Escher room in "Labyrinth".
Well, that pretty much ends my OMBG rants. Some were good, some were bad, some were just downright ugly, but all in all...I made a point and got it across. I'm psyched to listen to my records tomorrow, hopefully I find the time and even better if my CDs come. Oh I can't wait. If anything, watch RAW tonight and see the beautiful Trish Stratus. Oh and if anyone out there reads this...please, please please comment and relfect on anything I say. I'd love to hear from others.
PEACE & LOVE, glitter too.

OH.TODAY.
Sep. 13th, 2009 | 08:59 pm
location: Mars
mood: 
chipper
music: Nada xB
Today was something to say the least. Let's see...I went to the flea market I always go to and got two fab Beatles records, they are "Beatles '65" and "Beatles For Sale" I absolutely love them to bits and I can't wait to listen to them later this week. I'm totally thrilled. I love getting vinyls every week, cost me, ahem, my sister $30 dollars on the two of them. Fantastic good deal in my mind, but my flippin' dad is getting mad that my sister is spending that much on me just about every week. Seriously? Seriously. He makes me mad to all ends and it's just insane. He doesn't understand anything and I mean ANYTHING about me and sometimes it makes me want to cry, but mainly, I just want to punch his face in or give him a swift low blow. Honestly. He's something and today, he got on my nerves pretty bad. He makes everyone else angry too. That including my mom and sister. He needs to learn to cool it and try to understand us better and then we wouldn't have all these blinkin' arguments.
Onto something happier. Yesterday, I got a book titled Beatleology and it's to find out which Beatles is your inner Beatles. I took it today, though most of the questions were still scenarios for me, because I haven't exactly "lived my life", so for now at least, I know which Beatle I am mainly. Guess who it was? No it wasn't Ringo, nor Paul, nor John, so obviously I'm a George! I personally think I am in fact a George, all the traits of George point to me for this stage of my life. I have to read about my "Inner George", and oh that should be exceptionally fun. My minor sign, meaning the Beatle that ranked second in my results was John! So my major Beatle sign is George and my minor is a John. That's pretty much fab in my opinion. Paul and Ringo came in tied after them so that's also fantabulous. Reading books, reading manga. Something I love to do and I need to do it more often, but the history book for college is always getting in the way. I never want to read that, I always want to read stuff that interests me. That surely doesn't. Hopefully I'll find some free time to read about my inner Beatle and to catch up on all the manga I've been neglecting.
Pins, buttons, pins. I didn't find any Grateful Dead or Janis Joplin today. Total drag. I really wish I had so I could give them to my history teacher, but alas. This won't get me down though, I'll definitely keep looking. I'll make a vow to find at least one before the semester ends. As for my pins, my sister found me more Beatles pins at Border's. Now I know that they're new and I usually like legit, old school pins, but these are just to rad and I love that my sister was thoughtful enough to show them to me. I got a new fab vest. It cinches in the middle with a button, unlike the one that my pins currently call home. I'm definitely going to transfer them to the new vest when I find the time. Maybe I'll do it tonight after WWE Breaking Point, which I'm watching right now. It's fun to multi-task, but as of right now I'm looking at my computer screen more and more. I really wish that my main man, Edge, was at the PPV. If he suddenly showed up during something, I'd mark out so bad and become so blinkin' elated. I really do miss him and I just know that he'll come back a face and the fans will love him again. I really want to see that. Edge deserves to be loved. He really hasn't been ever since the Edge/Lita/Matt debacle and the lame-o's that still hang on that as judgement of a great man, really need to grow up themselves, realize he wasn't the first to cause someone to cheat, and then forget about it and see Edge as the fantasmagical wrestler he truly is.
School tomorrow...just typing these words depresses me. At least I don't have to wake up at 6:15 tomorrow. Thank goodness that's only on Tuesday and Thursday. If my Beatles Remastered comes tomorrow, again I will be elated. I just can't wait for it! I really hope the albums are just like the ones they're selling in the stores, or I'll have a fit. I don't know if I'll keep it if they aren't. Just have to wait and see. I wish I had more to talk about or more to know to type about, but hmm I don't really have anything to go on here. If anyone takes the time out to read this, thanks. It means a lot and even if no one does, I'll still write this for me, like I said previously.
Oh, oh, oh! Anyone out there know what a drow is? Well it's a dark/evil elf. ^L^ and well my IMVU avatar is one. I'm not exactly evil, but I can be guiltless and all that jazz, so maybe some people would call that evil. Come hit me up on IMVU, search my username: KIMBOwieXD over there and invite me to a chat. I'd love to chat with anyone out there that wan'ts a wonderful conversation. All rightey? Thanks and people, don't forget...PLEASE don't forget that this Wednesday is Marc's death day. I plead to you, celebrate his life and remember his music and legacy and all of that. Learn about him and spread his wonderfulness. Please. He's fabulous. I shall leave you with a magical video of Marc Bolan.
PEACE & LOVE.

A.DAY.IN.THE.LIFE.
Sep. 12th, 2009 | 11:02 pm
location: Mars
mood: 
excited
music: FRESH PRINCE OF BEL-AIR--{will smith}
This title? Hmm...well I listened to this song about 3 times today and then read in a book that it's the #1 Beatles song. Wow. What a lucky guess on my part, right? Right. I personally love the song, I mean I think that was obvious as I said I listened to it 3 times and if I despised the song, believe me, I would've lifted the needle and placed it on the next song and I wouldn't have searched it on my EnV Touch, just to play it on the car. The lyrics are fantastic, the melding together of the songs is cosmic. I can't wait to hear it digitally remastered. I can only imagine, well for a couple more days. Speaking of the Beatles, I went to Best Buy today. You can probably guess what I'm going to say next. I sat down on the stool in front of the drums and waited for my sister to show and we jammed good to 9 songs. So magical. The graphics are absolutely stellar and wow, wow, wow. Everything about it lives up to the hype and I really wished I walked out of the store with it...but alas. Nothing THAT magical happened. I loved playing Ringo's drums and wow, my sister did fantastic on guitar. Whooped my butt on a couple of the songs, but I also beat her on a couple. x3 Maybe Santa will haul the loveliness of the Rock Band to my house. I'll just have to wait and see.
As for what else I did today. Hmm, went to the mall and got even more Beatles stuff. Books, pins, a t-shirt, got some manga as well. NANA 18 is out! But supposedly I'm lame compared to the people who read NANA by chapter on the internet. Whatever. I'm a manga COLLECTOR, as in I like to buy the books, as in I like to read full volumes instead of chapters. This isn't too exciting, is it? Well then...back to the Beatles and what's up and coming in my life.
I listened to all my Beatles records by this time. I have an Alternate Sgt. Pepper cover and I thought it was going to be the same songs, you know the usual track listing, but it wasn't. It was totally different and it even had "Penny Lane" and "Strawberry Fields Forever" on it, two songs that weren't even included on the final Sgt. Pepper. The title on the label isn't Sgt. Pepper either, but instead titled nothing but "1967." I was looking on the internet and I can't find anything about it. If anyone out there in cyber space knows a glimmer about this fab album, please chime in. Anywho, tomorrow I hopefully will pick up some more vinyls from the flea market I frequent. I also listened to David Bowie''s debut album and my sister loves the song "There Is A Happy Land" off of it. It's a fancy little song, very Mr. Rogers, but I love it as well. It sure is something. If you haven't heard it, do yourself a favor and educate yourself. Thanks.
Watching Fresh Prince of Bel-Air now. That show never loses it's whimsy. I love it so much. xD Hopefully I'll be back with more exciting news in later days. I'm on the hunt for Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead pins tomorrow! Should be fun. I shall leave you all with one of the cutest clips that will hopefully inspire you to buy Born to Boogie or find it online or something and watch it for the celebration of Marc's life. If you like Ringo, then it's a double whammy of fun.
PEACE & LOVE. Check you all later.

Helloooo there, cyber space. Hmm...does anyone call the net cyber space anymore? If not, all the more reason for me to do so. xB Anywho, I haven't posted here in ages, but I'm back and yes, today I'm wearing black, so the title makes sense. Today, it's been pretty good. I'm home from college, so that makes it all the better. I hate the feeling of possibly being called on and the skits we had to create for Life and Health class were quite embarrassing. I'm so blinkin' glad I didn't get called on to go. Hopefully she forgets after the test/quiz on Monday. All rightey then...this school chat is super boring and such a drag to talk about. In much much happier news...
I got the Beatles remastered stereo box set! Weee! I can't wait for it to come in the mail so I can bask in its loveliness. I acted like a total doofus to have my mom buy it, but I'm not a fab person when it comes to getting what I want and more importantly acting wrongly when I don't get what I want. I hate myself when times like those happen and I feel exceptionally guilty. I'm such a bad girl, but I'm so glad to have this part of history on the way. I'm a new Beatles fan, but I adore the music, the look, the era, the everything! x3 Everyone knows I'm a past freak, addicted to anything and everything that relates to the 60s, 70s, and 80s, so loving the Beatles is only furthering this. It's something really.
Oh oh oh! Today, my history teacher loved the pins on my vest, called Bowie a girl, but I let that slide, and asked if I had a Janis Joplin pin. I said no, because I don't and it turns out he's pretty much her biggest fan. Now, since I offered, I'm on the hunt for Janis Joplin and The Grateful Dead pins for him at flea markets. I'm sure I'll have luck. I hope I find something for him before the semester is over. That would make me happy and it'd certainly make him happy. ^L^
So...let's see. My life is pretty flippin' boring. I don't do much but, sit home, surf the net, and watch TV and go to college. It's so monotonous. The only things that pull me out of this cycle are my vinyls. Yes, records for a record player. I love listening to them. I'm collecting Beatles ones now and T.Rex and Bowie too, but it seems like I have all the Bowie ones, even though I know that isn't true. I only have all the common ones.
RINGO <3333 He's my main, new obsession right now. I all ready love him dearly, probably because I knew the most about him before I got into the Beatles. He directed the motion picture "Born to Boogie" for T.Rex, another one of my obsessions. Seriously, Marc Bolan is an amazing man and his music should be remembered, even though he's gone. This month, September is the month for Bolan. Honestly, if you haven't gotten into him or listened to his music, do it this month. On September 16, 1977, Marc died in a car crash and that date is coming up. Tragically, his death was only 2 weeks before his birthday, the 30th, so be sure to celebrate his life on his death day and also celebrate his birthday. I know I will be, I'll be watching "Born to Boogie" and all that jazz.
I shall let you go now, but I will try to post a blog everyday. rLr That may get a bit difficult to do, but I shall try. I doubt anyone even reads this, but eh...it's good enough for me to write. I'm always on IMVU as well and Gaia once again. Come check me. Gaia: KIMBOwie, IMVU: KIMBOwieXD.
Speak to you later, Planet Queens and Space Bosses. Stay well, keep jammin' good.
PEACE.

KIMI.KAWAII.DESIGNS
Jun. 30th, 2008 | 02:13 pm
mood: 
productive
music: The sounds of the television...hehe
These are my designs. I love sketching out clothes, unfortunately, none of them have become reality...yet. Feel free to request a sketch. All I need is what color scheme and for female or male and what designs, if any do you want involved, like a theme.
Anyway, here is what I've done.

I drew this wedding dress for a girl at my school who wants a Gothic Wedding when she grows up. She really adored the dress I drew. Her name is Courtney.

Here are three sketches. The first one is inspired by Japan, with the hair close to the head and the floral pattern of a pretty modest dress and Vivienne Westwood shoes. The second one is inspired by the sideproject band of AFI, Blaqk Audio. I liked the pattern of the one BA shirt I have with volume pattern of how loud the beat is so I made the skirt resemble that and I cutsew the shirt I already own. The third one is super Kawaii. I love it and I'd wear. I ahve to make it someday. It's a cupcake princess inspired by Jeffree Star and being cute and sweet.

This one was drawn for my friend Stevo. This is the only one I drew for a guy. I like it though. The one side is short where it looks like the leg was cut off with bloody accents.

I went with a triadic(red.yellow, blue) scheme for this, except the red is pink, but it's still a tint of red. The scan doesn't do the pink justice. I was just bored and whipped tihs up. The style is totally me and I'd wear it. I love how unique and decora it is.
http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r134/P
The first one is inspired by the RATED R superstar himself and my favorite wrestler, Edge. It even has a drape along the lower half the same pattern as his leather cloak. It's GothLoli with an Edge theme. The second one is black and white inspired by the band, The Hives from their Black and White album. I just thoguht this is how the girl uniform for the photoshoot would look. ^^

Last but not least this is the GothLoli dress I drew for a contest for ShojoBeat magazine to try and win real Japanese GothLoli clothes, but I didn't win. I love it though. It's very "Lady Stardust" and inspired by Ziggy and the spiders from Mars themselves. I <3 David Bowie.
What do you guys think? Rate/Hate?
