it seems the world is finally trying to solve this anorexic/bulemic problem but starting at the roots. In europe and shit, models that are too skinny are being banned. i think it's great!! maybe boobs will become fashionable again! (fuck fashion, i still wanna be flat!) however, does it really seem right to ban anorexic models? i mean, sure it will help stop this generation from suffering anorexia and bulemia and stuffs by not making bones the fashion, but will it really help those already affected?

for me, looking at it from that point of view, it will just make those people feel even worse about themselves. and most times they already see themselves as fat. i guess another thing people have their preferences, and those who are trying to lose weight probably have their preference on skinny. hmm... i feel that doing this ban of skinny models might cause first a worsening in those already 'skinny' and will take a while for the skinny fashion to wear off.

another thing. what i dislike is when people say others are too skinny when they're about average. ok, it might be saying 'you look a lil under weight and thats unhealthy' but it might have the same effect of calling someone too fat. hmm, funny thought crossed my mind, if skinny became the new fat and a new mental disorder where people binge and become obese to avoid being slim...

it would be nice if their were models employed with a natural body shape, skinny, big, curvey, flat, whatever, just a be variety, but it was all natural and the designers still designed clothes as normal, but had to fit it to an individual instead of all size 6s or 8s!

also, despite this increase in eating disorders... anyone else notice clothing sizes increasing? i swear 10 used to be the small.. but you had to be really small to fit it and 12 used to be the medium, not large, and that usually fit most people of an average body build. these days, in big w, i can barely wear a size 8 pants because they are too big.. ok, well, it has to do with the style i know, but that's like half the stuff (i was trying on jeans). i find myself on occasions searching through the kid's section to find skirt and stuff.

kids section (wow this turned out to bea really long rant). the clothes are becoming an increase of a concern for me... ok, veronicas, they can do whatever they want, be lesbian incestuous sluts, i really couldn't care, good for them, but the issue i have is that they are advertising to a young crowd. no, not young adults or promiscuous teens, lil kids! the stuff i've been looking for like slutty school girl skirts that seem to cost a fortune and you can really only find at specialised stores cost only 20 bux in the kids section in the veronica style in target! i ended up buying it, ahhahaa! but that's a worry! things have become quite slutty. and for my friend who's feet haven't passed children's size 2 no longer has to worry about only being able to wear kid's shoes, because i the find kids shoes more appealing than the adult sizes! anywhere from school girl style black shoes-dorothy shoes-joggers-adult style high heels.

man, mini-skirts, skinny jeans, crop tops, slutty brands... i'm not sure how much i can handle. its even more concerning because 2 of my sisters are into what i'm into. i don't mind, except for the fact that its now actually available to them in their sizes.. *sigh* its really sad when you see an 8 year old girl walk by you in a shopping centre wearing slutty clothes than what you wear to the beach, or while performing in a strip club!

ok, anywayz, i guess i should leave it there. so if you actually read that, good on ya, leave a comment with your views or whatever. anywayz, bye!

Why is it that when you're gone, I feel so bad?
Why is it that you mean so much to me?
You've helped me heal...
You've helped me through...
But when you're gone, my seams start to undo.

They're not visible to the naked eye,
But if you look close enough, you may see the thread wearing.
It seems the thread you gave me isn't so strong,
I need you here to keep replacing it.

But I try, holding myself together with pins,
Hoping you'll be back soon.
Because I know that when I see you,
The healing begins again.

yes indeedio.... iv made another rare visit to livejournal.... i admit, though, its onli for this community iv joined...

i totali wanna learn organ. so bored, need a job, and moneyz... ttyl!

i was jut readin over sum past journal entries, including my most 'popular' one to date, 'just a comment in general' (or woteva it was called). dude... randomness.

i was readin sum of the stuff posted (it was reli funi) and i couldnt help but laugh at the posts made anonymously. ok, fair enough people would rather hide and not have people against them, but if they're going to argue about things and put on a brave face, why post anonymously? unless you don't have a livejournal, then thats understandable.

i remember one girl who said that anyone posting anonymously was a coward. anyone posting anonymously didnt deserve to speak badly of her, leave comments in her journal, etc. i fin it so ironic that she should do so herself though. but ah well... wot can ya do?

dude.. onto sumfin else now...

OMG finished skool! hsc around the corner, totali gonna die! @.@ dude! ah well, just study then its over.

goodluck to everyone doing the hsc or who hav end of semester exams (uni) or anything else thats stressful! anywayz, ttyl!
