Quotes and song lyrics that I love:

(I miss you miss you)
Hello there the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in backround of the morgue
The unsespecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends...
~blink-182: I miss you


I am a little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I can’t help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got

[Chorus](I can't feel the way I did before)
(Don't turn your back on me)
(I won't be ignored)
(Time won't heal this damage anymore)
(Don't turn your back on me)
(I won't be ignored)

I am a little bit insecure a little unconfident
Cause you don't understand I do what I can but sometimes I don't make sense
I am what you never wanna say but I've never had a doubt
It's like no matter what I do I can't convince you for once just to hear me out
So I let go watching you turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I've got

[Chorus]
(I can't feel the way I did before)
(Don't turn your back on me)
(I won't be ignored)
(Time won't heal this damage anymore)
(Don't turn your back on me)
(I won't be ignored)

A relationship with you takes a lot of patience.

Happy Turkey Murder Day All!!

Woo-hoo. *sarcastic fanfare* "I'm waving my pennant of enthusiasm." I just thought I'd show that I acknowledge the holiday. Ahh Thanksgiving. The day people see their realatives, (some obnoxious, some nice.) watch a parade, play football, slave over a hot stove (if they happen to be female), and overstuff themselves on poor innocent turkeys.


R.I.P
Turkeys of America
1621-whoknowswhenitwillend?

OMG Johnny Depp Mad Hatter!!

Personally I think he could look slightly more insane. And more haggard. But that may be just me. I love this guy and this character, so we'll have to see how it turns out. The costume and makeup are subject to change anyway.

Tim Burton's New Alice in Wonderland Movie

Okay, so I'm excited about this one. Tim Burton is directing it. Linda Woolverton is doing the screenplay. It seems like she's done alot of good stuff...Lion King, for instance. Here's the cast according to IMDb :

Alice: Mia Wasikowska

Mad Hatter : Johnny Depp (YES! I adore him)

The White Queen : Anne Hathaway (I like her. Though I think the white queen should be portrayed by someone a bit older)

The Red Queen : Helena Bonham Carter (She was Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd. What more is there to say?)

The Cheshire Cat : Michael Sheen (Not sure how happy I am about this one yet.)

The Knave of Hearts. Crispin Glover (I woulda gone slightly younger, but he looks a-ight)

Caterpiller: Alan Rickman (Dude! Its Snape. And the judge. Very kewl.)

Tweedledum/Tweedledee : Matt Lucas

Here is an expert from http://www.comingsoon.net/

"Based on the Lewis Carroll classic "Alice in Wonderland," which will combine performance-capture imagery, currently seen in "Beowulf," with live-action footage. Disney released their classic animated version in 1951."

It said this is all gonna be a Disney film. I hope its a rumour cause idk about this..they may make it too light and fun, if they try to appeal to a younger crowd. Hopefully they'll keep it demented =) But since its Tim Burton, we should be alright.


Alright, once the rest of the cast guest finalized, I will do another postie on this.

Love to all!

More Chessie

Because there is a bounty of cheshire cat images on the web, I decided to share some of my faves :

Above Left: found on Deviant Art Above Right : found on Google Images...Its kinda like a stuffed animal, only more real looking.


This one is a sketch done by a person on Deviant art











The above left one is a drawing/computer animated drawing done by someone on Deviant art.


Above right is also from Deviant Art..it was done by photomanipulating a real cat.


And this last one is a painting I found on Deviant Art.

Cheshire Kitty

Because I named my blog after kitty (kitty is my friend's word for Cheshire, which I adopted), I thought I'd do a post dedicated to him. Yes, Kitty is traditionally a boy *sigh*. Okay, so here I go.. (Warning, this will probably be pretty image heavy)








The Cheshire Cat is the first character one thinks of when they think of Alice in Wonderland (other than Alice herself, of course). Cheshire is very helpful to Alice, though he sometimes waxes a little too philosophical for Alice to grasp. She first meets him at the Duchesses', and then he appears in the branches of a tree, and then later at the Queen of Heart's court as they play croquet. The king and the executioner then have an argument about whether or not you can behead a body-less cat. Because, of course the Cheshire Cat can dissapear and re-appear at will, which sometimes vexes Alice.




Because Cheshire is not an actuall breed of cat, Carrol probably got the inspiration for kitty from the English county of Cheshire, which was famous for its cheese, among other things. The Cheshire Cat is probably based on the British Shorthair, which was the mascot for Cheshire Cheese.



There are many depictions of the Cheshire Cat. First, Lewis Carrol's original drawing:









Or the very recognizable Disney version:






American Mgee's Alice is a really cool computer game. Its kind of a demented version of Alice in
Wonderland...I'll get into that more later. Here is that version of the Cheshire Cat, one of my favorites:



There are also several movie versions, other than Disney:




Whoopie Goldberg as Cheshire in the '98 version:





Telly Savalas in the 1985 version:



I can't really find any more movie versions, exept for Tim Burtons, which I'm SO excited to see!! I think Vyelle Croom (45 yrs old) may have snagged the role...I think I'll do a post on that later in the week.
