Glow





Today was a bit melancholy. "The Darjeelng Limited" is like a magical, muddled up song stuck in my head, the kind that drives you crazy till you're all shook up, and the only cure is to listen to it over and over again until your brain can let it go. Sometimes, when I see a beautiful movie, while it fills me up and makes me glow it also makes me sad, because all I want is to live inside it, forever. But there are trains to run for and groceries to be bought and noise and traffic and lines and and jabbing elbows and angry stares and headaches and homework and real, ugly life getting in the way of everything. I just want things to be simple and soft and beautiful, always. If only, if only.

yes if only...maybe all who feel this way can go in together and get an island that has little sections like their fave movie.
no more elbows, and angry stares. :)

hauna-buy those tights girl! Targhaaaay!
my love-I'm glad I tipped you off to Hotel Chevalier. It really makes The Darjeeling that much better, and stands on it's own as well.
a.swank-actually, that is disturbingly closer to my broader life plan than you may ever know...
candid cool-the wardrobe is IMPECCABLE. The luggage is to die for. Visually, as you might expect, the film is a stunner, no question about it! I feel like it was only a matter of time till Marc and Wes teamed up, you know?
