Savannah News.


So where have we been? There was a lot of hubbub last week to get things done and moved around. Before then, there wasn't enough money to go out and buy things or to go see things, but it all paid off in the end.

After a pretty decent four hour trip, I made it all the way down to Savannah, GA. Even though I'll only be here for a short while, I'm already enjoying myself and my trip. I have a couple of pictures from a restaurant, and a few pictures of beauty products. I'll upload as I can, but all in all, I want to just kick back and recharge before taking on more of my self imposed duties.

Though I'm not blogging a lot, I'm running around and talking to you guys, so let's build a great relationship while there's still plenty of time. Until the next blog (or until I see you on your blog), take care.

The ULTA-mate Combo




Pixelmator's gone. I feel as though I lost a part of myself, but instead of moping, I shall forge steady on and tell you about this lovely I got from ULTA. I also got a kohl eye liner pencil for about $1, and I have never loved a pencil more. Unfortunately, I can't necessarily use it for my eyebrows, but that's later on in the review.

They were selling a lot of things for $5 and under—single eye shadows, lip and eyebrow pencils, etc etc. I think this single shadow right here cost me $2 so I was happy to get this.

The Hot, Paved Tekkokkinkreet



I'm really behind on things that I've seen/done and actually enjoyed. Like really behind. Let's try and make this better. About six months ago, I had the pleasure of watching Tekkonkinkreet, which is one hell of a name to type.

The movie is based off the seinen manga series and came out in 2006. Man, am I late. One of the things that got me about the movie is the art style of the characters and the crazy amount of details in the background. I didn't think that I was going to enjoy it very much, and I wasn't sure why. I just had that feeling. I'm so glad that it was wrong. This ended up being more than a story about two brothers trying to survive in this dangerous world of gangs and steel.

For Kuro (/Itachi), this world is all about surviving and trying to keep it safe enough for his brother to live in. Shiro isn't 100% oblivious, but it's obvious that he's not completely there as well. They mean everything to each other, and while that's an easy trope to fall into, I think that Tekkonkinkreet takes it to a whole new level when Kuro gets obsessed with leveling the playing field between him and, well, everyone else.

I think it's a really good movie, and I'm glad I finally got around to checking it out, you know. This is a movie for those who don't mind action, brotherly love turning into overprotection, and a bit of madness. Check it out for yourself, and let me know what you think.
