tattoo our sweat and tears forever, you and I;

IGGY Part 1.

The first/second(?) day we knew each other, I think.
Bethan, Lydia, Lisa, Cara, and Toni's forehead. (:
The first excursion Creative Writing had was to the museum.
Now I'm all for museums, but I'd been to this particular one a number of times already; so I just occupied myself by taking pictures.

Like this pseudo-CK boxer ad.

Outing to Chinatown- we had a competition to see who could smile the biggest.
I won.
At the expense of my photogenicality.


"oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hairrrr..."
Graham tries to pull a Sandi Thom.

roomie love.

"NUUUUU"

Our first picture!
this was still pre-pink starz. i know: awwww.

the guyz in their sarongs at the Malay Heritage Centre.
they're bringing sexyback. yeah!

Joe's hot pink legwarmers and Toni stealing his gigantic (i kid you not) shoes.
---THE FIRST IGGY WINTER U 08 DISCO----
...was awezome.
I did makeup for about five/six girls and they all looked killer. Not that they needed much work- they were already gorgeous to begin with. But I had so much fun playing around with their mascara and eyeliner (think channelling Brigitte Bardot for Lisa, and Bollywood bombshell for Sanusha, and au naturale beauty for Becca, for instance) that I barely had time to do my own.

the girls playing around with all my accessories.


my pretty little makeup creation.

...AVRIL LAVIGNE, NO?!

Lydia (UK's future top model) and I.

Beth: "I'm like the pimp! Omg I'm like the pimp!"

Kimmmmm.

Asian chicas.


so much happened at the disco.
the start of something new(?) and flinging wild limbs and caterwauling on air guitars to Bon Jovi's "It's My Life";
mass IGGY limbo! and me failing hopelessly and getting up to see the two Joes laughing at me-
"you're so small, you could just have walked under it";
dancing together with a circle of people clapping around us (i'm surprised someone didn't yell out "...not IGGYpropriate!" and sidelong glances all night and, later, tentative conversation on glossy wooden steps;
teaching people how to spin and whirl and then twirling around in his arms to Sara Bareille's Love Song like a modern day Cinderella-- flying past people and seeing everyone's faces lit up; happy; immortalized in strobe lights.

The best SM group. Ever. I miss you guys.
