Oh my god! It’s been about a month or since I updated! Well it was a lot of writing I did on those last three entries so today I’ll be nice and give you something to watch and ponder about for the week.
As for myself I had a Visual Culture exam at school, so I’ve been away studying like a musty, antisocial, underground creature. Now life couldn’t get any better! Let’s hope I didn’t fail epically as I sometimes do. (I surprise myself in undesirable ways)
Neon lights, pounding bass, remixed nintendo tunes and candy coloured teenagers dancing like robotic figures from a 1980’s disco flicks is the new COOL. Is it no wonder that our trends don’t run in linear patterns but rather in a full circle? Haven’t we done the 80’s fashion enough?
NO WE HAVE NOT! Some may exclaim, or as I like to say everything is new again! We’re attached to our ipods by the hip. Cellphones, laptops, blackberry, sidekicks, Zunepods, ICQ, bittorrent… we cannot stress this enough.
I noticed our jeans getting tighter, our pant waistlines…just a bit higher. All of a sudden space shoes are now acceptable. So is sleeping all day and dancing all night to fast tempo music. It’s like a Kylie Minogue video… WE’RE GOING BACK TO THE FUTURE!
