the sprawl

list of things i need:
1. polka dot tights from target
2. pair of black shorts
3. black cardigan that's not too long and not too short (impossible to find!)
4. ankle boots (i wish i'd grabbed the $7 ones from the salvos the other day)
5. big floppy sunhat from big w
6. another pair of stilettos that actually fit
7. a floral summer dress
8. love heart bag from cheap store on swanston
9. plain zip-up hoodie
10. faux fur leopard print coat (IT FEELS LIKE I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOREVER AND IT BREAKS MY HEART)


gave up on buying/making my alice in wonderland costume, ended up being edie sedgwick for halloween instead since it will be the last year i'll have hair short enough to pull it off. i wore 120-denier tights as pants, a long striped top and huge earrings, pinned my hair back to make it look shorter and sprayed it silver with temporary colouring and did full edie make-up complete with beauty spot.

chain-smoked all night, justified it with the "historically accurate costume" excuse.
i had a good time. at these parties i can forget life at school, escape judgement and just have fun.

ridiculously fucked

my school has cracked down on wagging, i've been all but caught and i need to go and do a tearful confession as soon as possible tomorrow if i want my parents to remain in the dark: so far, extremely unlikely that my coordinator will abstain from telling them

i have forged countless notes, wagged countless times, and now i'm fucked. they might even suspend me.

and i have less than a week left of school. what a joke. i cannot believe this has happened, when things were going so well for me. life is a bitch

trash

grace and elegance is all well and good, but sometimes i just love a good hot mess.
