S.O.S. to my mother, take the hinges off the door

I've really been neglecting this blog. It's been a long time, ever since I made a tumblr I've lost desire to blog sadly. ima-robot.tumblr.com
I think when I get some awesome camera, with a large, clear lens, IF that ever freaking happens, then I'll post more. I like photos better. For now, I'll just harp on some uninteresting things, cuz that's all I'm good at.

So insane, unique jewelry has been invading my thoughts for the past month or 2. I have been finding out about more and more jewelry designers who make just the greatest things! Some examples are MANIAMANIA, Bong Drag (accessories, mainly Pamela Love ones), A(r)mor Jewelry...

Immortals Ring from MANIAMANIA


stalacite cuff, also maniamania


Crow Ring, from Bona Drag & Created by Pamela Love

Pamela Love Talon Cuff

Pamela Love Crow Necklace

Pamela Love Cage Ring
There are many more on Bona Drag that I love that aren't Pamela Love but I only wanted to post the favorites.
I will never be able to purchase any of these. Sadly, uniqueness, nice design, & good materials comes with a price, that I won't be able to afford any time soon. Or ever. I can't DIY these, like I am in the process of doing with the A(r)mor Jewelry pieces that are all made from chains, which aren't hard to work with, that I previously blogged about.
I will be making a replica of this sooner or later though! Excited.

Goodness I love jewelry, I could see myself creating this stuff for a living! Don't think I ever will though...

If only you knew, would you save me? Can you teach me to stop the rain?

I should be going to bed now, I have to wake up at 8 tomorrow. Whatever.
So my love Lexi posted a list of what happiness is to her on her last blog post. And I decided that I'll do it here too. I have a feeling mine's gonna be a bit more wordy, i'm just like that.
Happiness is to me:
  • The finer things in life.
  • People who influence me to be my best.
  • being by myself
  • Being with those few friends that you know you'll always love, no matter what
  • the benefit from consciously making a good decision
  • coming up with an outfit you love
  • feeling creative
  • listening to music that is beautifully created, with great lyrics, great singing, and instrumental elements.
  • listening to music that changes my mood, into good or bad; just because that's when you know the musician created something really moving. (hoping this isn't a contradiction...)
  • black & white
  • getting away from your familiar life for a short period of time
  • coming home to your familiar life
  • Delilah (sometimes with her Jack)
  • my family, no other words needed
  • long car rides
  • my magazines
  • understanding what's going on in any math class
  • being in the midst of fashion week - like updates on shows on style.com
  • seeing the extreme creativity and artistic value in fashion collections.
  • wearing a bunch of rings
  • SHOES.
  • getting lost in an alternate world (...a book, sims family, a story you wrote)
  • beautiful photographs
  • a clean room
  • 1000awesomethings.com
  • meaningful, long hugs :)
  • feeling independent.
  • aster flowers
  • sassfras the rock
  • feeling like i belong
  • Religion, God, trust and faith in Him.
  • staying awake
  • seeing my long stack of cd's
  • davey havok's compelling words and voice.
  • writing in cursive
  • moving from acquaintance to friend
  • heart to hearts
  • reading a book you know you'll remember for a while
  • listening to lyrics you know you'll remember for a while
  • tulle fabric :]
  • wedge heels
  • Watching Sleepy Hollow.
  • painting my nails
  • taking long walks until my feet are killing
  • being in crowds
  • Manhattan
  • big fluffy cheerful dogs
  • being flattered
  • looking for shapes in the clouds
  • feeling content
  • meditating
  • being immature & proud (so often)
  • Accomplishments
  • When you're period's over (yeah, I did just mention that.)
  • having a booked weekend
  • having something to look forward to.
  • staying up late
  • no responsibilities
  • dancing like a maniac in your room all alone to a great song.
  • feeling confident
  • the 90s, Such an unattractive decade, I love everything about it.
  • thunderstorms during the day
  • when you make other people laugh really hard
  • the ancient romans & greeks
  • having a dream so good that it takes you a while for reality to set in.
  • Not forgetting a dream over a few hours or days like I usually do
  • jewelry
  • Best last few:
  • Going to local band shows in small venues.
  • AFI
  • The Killers
  • The Dresden Dolls
  • Italy. Visiting Amalfi, Sorrento, Pompeii, Naples, Rome, staying in my mother's town Liscia, the long car rides, the beautiful scenery, the warm people, the different way of living, and the emotion part that came with everything. Every part of that trip had a song to accompany. Visiting Italy for 3 weeks in 2008 changed my life so much.
  • The best for last, going to concerts. Best feeling in the whole world. You're hot, sweaty, and going nuts to music you live for. Watching people go nuts on stage and in the pit. Playing for you until you've fallen head over heels in love!
so theres my list :D
this was sooo hard to think of so many.
btw, i got a tumblr. you can follow tumblr blogs on blogger! party!

Swallow Your Pride









The title is lyrics from a song by The Devil Wears Prada.
Swallows are such beautiful, interesting birds.
I would love to own one- any bird as a matter of fact birds are my favorite animal (next to kitties) but I don't have the heart to cage one. My older brother used to own a white parakeet named Peatree. I still remember that adorable birdie :]
If I could get any tattoo, it would be a swallow on my ribcage on my right side... even though I have this all planned out I would never get a tattoo.
Bye for now,
taylor

P.S. I like having a signature at the bottom...I think I'm going to do it for now on
