i went a bit nuts over there ....

"there" being tumblr. and switched things up and moved over a bit ago. i would feed everything over to Facebook, but I have too many posts of topless chicks for such a wide audience of acquaintances:


[and you already knew about]: faceandmirror.tumblr.com

i'll end things with some goth girls doing backbends, cause a) why not? and b) this would have been me if I had found ashtanga in highschool. 

Breathe into your chests, ladies.

[creations]

Some recent creations hot of the 3D printing presses. Unlike many other talented folks I know, I am horrendous when it comes to photo documentation of - well, basically everything. Thus, tis only a small sampling and some fairly shitty pics:

PINEAPPLES! The print resolution has improved (a lot) since these guys were made. NomNom.
ST Comm Badges - FUCK YES. I boldly went and painted one with nail polish.
'Nother gear heart - we've made about 7-8 now. Better print resolution and zillions of color trials.
Commissioned Job! Hooray! Jinja Triangles - made for some purpose that I can never quite remember...
Jinja Detail.
Lastly, here is Miles the Cat staring at the internet. I love them both so very much.

Ok, sure - why not?

Well my sis busted this out on her wonderous blog a bit ago. She used Bowie; I was inspired to try it out using the Talking Heads (my favorite). I already have a few alternative names*, but Moon Rocks would probably win the weird contest.

14. What is the best advice you have to give? Memories Can't Wait
15. If you could change your name what would you change it to? Moon Rocks

*Chandrika is the most widely used of the nicknames, I'm not sure if some people realize that my 'real' name is Cyndi. Whatever Works.

Also, here is a picture of Daria - but more real. Inspired by another nickname I had during the first run of the show. Yeah, I was in 6th grade - but I was born sarcastic.

breathing fully again

ah, finally out of my two-week funk. what i lovely feeling. these past few weeks, I have felt like i was standing in molasses any time i needed to go or do anything. the alarm at 4:30am was like the voice of satan, practice felt like torture and commuting seemed to take YEARS (not minutes).

it was.... a challenge.
This was basically me for all of May so far (i.e., Gloppy of Molasses Swamp in Candy Land.)
...actually no, far more like this.

but this morning, the alarm seemed only its usual level of annoying, practice felt vibrant and fluid, and all of my travels have felt far less...epic.

i think a day spent truly resting very much hit the spot. also, chatting and thrifting with wonderful folks doesn't hurt either. nor does trying on a shiny blue body suit and thinking, "hey, this kind of works." huzzah for pleasant surprises.

slowly, slowly i am coming into myself again. body, mind, and whatever else there might be to it. it always takes longer than you think it should. but then, don't most things.

p.s. i promise to post pics of said body suit. and all of the other wonderful things i have allowed myself to procure lately. it is just not worth it to feel like you are presenting a stranger to the world each time you leave the house.

LAST WEEK: No Compassion
THIS WEEK: New Feeling

i want this hair

and one day I will not be too lazy to make it happen.

the face and the mirror

oh tumblr. it was only a matter of time.

what can i say, i really do have a thing for faces....maybe i find them fascinating because i have always had to share mine. or perhaps, it is just because human beings are so incredibly geared to notice a Face. 

whatever it is... here are some i find interesting. found and posted here:

faceandmirror.tumblr.com

for as interesting as they are, however, it is surprisingly hard to find images where the Face is the main subject. much attention on bodies and accessories and Who and Where.


and, lastly, some fair warning - i am becoming a bit obsessed with Charlotte Free, so she may show up a higher than average amount. damnit, will i ever stop wanting pink hair?

(no)
