That has such people in't!
Name:Bright Young Thing
Location:York, United Kingdom
Bio:
.0 1
19 year old english literature student with a dead poet fetish. accumulates much dust and innumerable books and dvds in her messy life. enjoys drinking champagne cocktails in bars. likes skirts you can twirl in. finds the omniscient quality of third person narration appealing, but is drawn to the rather more unreliable first person.

I wish I had a body like a bottle of Jean-Paul Gaultier perfume. I wish I was the heroine in a 1930s screwball comedy. I wish more people spontaneously burst into song. I wish I wore pearls more often. I wish I had Sofia Coppola's record collection.

QUOTE UNQUOTE
"Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night."
Matthew Arnold, Dover Beach


"It's a lie. It's a bunch of sad strangers photographed beautifully, and... all the glittering assholes who appreciate art say it's beautiful 'cause that's what they wanna see. But the people in the photos are sad, and alone... But the pictures make the world seem beautiful, so... the exhibition is reassuring which makes it a lie, and everyone loves a big fat lie."
Alice, Closer

"She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I cant help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run"
Radiohead, Fake Plastic Trees
