DSCN0763I wrote a little story with my neice called “Cara and The Witch” a narrative that she made up. Where Cara with the purple hair gets put in a dungeon by a witch, but then she gives the witch a potion. The witch becomes beautiful….and transforms into a pretty red haired girl, aka “the new girl in town.”  The last time I spoke with her she said next time we hang we will make chapter 2: “The New girl in Town” bahahahahaha i love it! How did she know thats my life?! A little blogger in progress i see :)

Ah yessss my other bestie, KIMBERLY (aka the pink ranger…) took me on my first Winner’s Shoppping spree. Well…those of you who know me….know that I get really flustered and overwhelmed in these types of searching for fashion treasure stores…Kim’s solution to it:

“OMG you HAVE to try it…its sooooooooooo LADY GAGA”

“look at this its sooo LADY GAGA”

hehehee oh man! I wish I could spend halloween with her, she is one of the funniest, quirquist, silliest girls i know….but its totally encouraged, i don’t think we could be friends otherwise

yoooooooo lets get these chains. Me: THAT IS DEFINATELY LADY GAGA!

yoooooooo lets get these chains. Me: THAT IS DEFINATELY LADY GAGA!

The winners couldn’t last forever….I am more of a DVD sale girl….and I kept talking over and over and over about how we should go to Walmart to Buy DVDS! Kim did not understand the urgency. So I finally explained the obsession with her.

see in Vienna we don’t get alot of North American Media…all I get is Austrian MTV and movie streaming, but its not the same as sifting through 5$ dvds at walmart, because then you don’t know what types of treasures and forgotten movies you may stumble upon! You CAN rent movies here….but its expensive and there is only ONE english rental store i know of.

We sifted through them…I ended up getting JURASSIC PARK trilogy (for 20$), My Girl, 007 Die another day, and wedding crashers, annnnd a Scanner Darkly. NON of which I would think of downloading or watching streaming…

It really sounds silly. BUT you have no idea how many hours i take sifting through movies online i COULD watch – there is just too much selection. NOTHING replaces digging through that 5$ bin at WalMart…NOTHING!

I know the WalMart corporation has sooo many negative implications for globalization, human rights, and the environment…but it is my extreme guilty pleasure (amongst other things!)

DVDs & ME! Notice my excitment...now THATS THE LOOK OF SATISFACTION RIGHT THERE (also notice another guilty pleasure....McDonalds) lol

My favourite love to hate it, but hate to love it around the corner hidden delight!

BOYAKASHA!
