I found this photo by Friedemann Hauss.


I'm not sure who the woman in the picture is, but the way she is posed and the look on her face is just extraordinary. Something so simple can invoke so many questions and thoughts. This is the kind of photo that can let your imagination run.


What was she thinking? 


What's the story behind this photo.


The answer is probably simple and nothing so spectacular as what can run through a mind. But it's still nice to think about it.


To me the photo also reminds me of an old royal photo like those of The Romanov's




 Such simple picture, but the people in it lived far less than simple lives, and met an end and was anything but civil or simple. Little Alexei was only 13 when he and his family were murdered in the basement of a house they were hiding away in. But when you look at the picture it's just a simple family documenting a moment in their life.

So today started off with me getting the game Alan Wake  

"...players assume the role of Alan Wake, a best-selling suspense author suffering from writer's block, who escapes to a small town only to experience the mysterious disappearance of his wife.

Set in the deceptively idyllic town of Bright Falls, Washington, Alan Wake immerses players in an intense and expansive cinematic world that enables players to explore the hyper-realistic and interactive environments. Alan Wake is mission-based with a deeply engaging and suspenseful storyline unveiling new twists and profound character revelations at every turn. Unravel the riveting plot through multilayered character interactions, unique problem-solving, and intense combat against terrifying enemies. In this nightmarish world, where fantasy and reality collide, Alan Wake must use a variety of weapons to survive, including his most powerful ally against the darkness - light itself."

So far the game is freaky and I love it!


Also today I went to the Richelle Mead signing with Jessica, Jen, and Mari! Yippy it was fun I got my book signed and when also got a copy of the 3rd Amanda Feral book I didn't noticed til it was already paid for that it was signed haha yay! So I'm going to stop the 7th Sookie book and start Spirit Bound! 

Pictures from tonight
















I'm surprised there was no hair pulling by Jen since she has red envy XD always trying to out red people haha if Bonnie Mckee ever moved back to Seattle I think Jen would shave her bald erm or Bonnie would lock Jen in the basement like her music video ;-)




I also found out some pretty horrid news Lacuna Coil show is 21+ but I'm thinking I might go down there before the show just to say hi to the band.  

BUT more good news I spent the last to days working helping out with the photography for a hair magazine!

So my niece reminded me about this game I played called Fatal Frames 2 when I played it I was actually to scared to get past more then the first house but I've decided to try again so I bought it and the first Fatal Frame which is equally scary!

May I say that Japan knows how to freak me out! I also have this irrational fear that a dead Japanese girl with long black hair is going to come out of my closet and kill me!! seriously I can't go to sleep at night unless my closet is closed 

for some reason the trailer for FF2 reminds me of the cover for A Tale of Two Sisters which I haven't seen yet but I heard it's what the Uninvited was a remake of.

What do you think the lower age limit should be for LiveJournal and other social networks, and why?

First question listed was submitted by [info]digital_jay. (Follow-up questions, if any, may have been added by LiveJournal.)

I think that the lower age limit on these sites should be 15. Yes I know a few people younger that are mature but I believe that younger kids should be outside playing and socializing with kids their own age in person not behind a screen.

Nazar:  In Turkey, evil eye jewelry and other such trinkets are particularly common. The evil eye is also known as the Eye of Medusa. A nazar or evil eye stone (Turkish: nazar boncuğu) is an amulet that protects against the evil eye. Colourful beads, bracelets, necklaces, anklets, and all manner of decoration may be adorned by this particularly popular symbol, and it is common to see it on almost anything, from babies, horses, doors to cars, cell phones, and even airplanes. Source Wikipedia


I first found out about Nazars from the Vampire Academy books by [info]blue_succubus (Richelle Mead) Rose gets one as a gift from her mom who got it from Roses father and it's always in the dream that Adrian walks in as a belly ring.

 
The first dream I was walking down this long dirt road in the woods with a girl I didn't she was wearing a nazar around her neck and I looked down to see a nazar half buried under some fallen leaves and dirt I thought it was pretty so I picked it up and as we walked further down the road I kept finding more a few feet apart from each other these were all cracked (which would suggest they worked in protecting someone) but soon the girl with me disappeared and where she had been there was a cracked nazar I back tracked to find her and she was being killed by a dude and soon I woke up.

Second dream I was shopping with my mom, and all of the cupcakes and other sweets had nazars on them and soon everything in the store had nazars on them I ended up in the car with my mom and she then ran over my cat and looked to me laughing. Then I woke up

weird freaking dreams!
