Speaking of one of my role models (WHO DEFEATED VOLDEMORT YESTERDAY), I must share this trailer for a movie that doesn’t exist. But OH! How I wish it did.
(While I love Julie Andrews and the music of the Disney movie, it bears little resemblance to the books. Mary Poppins is not nice. She is unsettling, at times petty, and never explains the strange things that happen around her. I LOVE HER.)
Common Characteristics of Natural Born, Freelance, or Career Writers
- An “odd ball” childhood.
Writers tend to start off as peculiar kids. They never quite fit in with their classmates. Their abstract thinking begins early on, and it causes them to struggle to relate to other children and elementary interests. Future writers commonly start off as either lonesome or socially inept kids.
- They were handed books as toys.
Naturally gifted writers are almost always reading enthusiasts. They have a further developed vocabulary and stronger syntax abilities because their scholastic experience goes beyond traditional curriculum.
- They believe in the “All or nothing” policy.
Writers are often perfectionists that will edit until their eyes bleed or completely scratch an idea off the table. They tend to carry that trait into their other projects as well. The writer will either create something complete or nothing at all.
- They take pride in their work.
Even if they need help, writers like doing their work 100% themselves without contribution. This is seen often in college, when the self-proclaimed writers don’t show up to office hours or ask for tutoring. Writers tend to treat even essays as a personal work of art. It’s their work, and it matters that it’s only theirs.
- They are equally organized and disorganized.
A writer’s mind works in choreographed chaos. With too much chaos comes no productivity. With too much organization comes no passion. The writer has learned how to have the perfect combination of both.
- They have both an ego and self-doubt.
-Enough ego to invest in one’s own thoughts, enough doubt to revise and rethink continuously.
- They enjoy simplicity.
Hot coffee, music, and a sunrise could make their morning flawless.
- They are observant.
Writers tend to learn about things from as many angles as they can. They’ll see the same sign for ten years and connect ten-thousand other separate things to the sign in that amount of time. They take in what they can and make a mental map of how things co-exist.
- They recognize the importance of memories.
Writers learn how to utilize past moments as criteria for their work. A writer will not forget their first love, or heartache.Via sherlocksophy, blueeyes-auburnhair, finallysomeaction, and psychjournalism:

Now, look at this:
That’s “Paul Mounet”, a french actor, who “died” in 1922.
His body never was found.
Then, look at this:
An unknown man, painted in 1530 by Parmigianino.
Compare them:
He’s a motherfucking vampire
His beard in 2011 even grows the same way as the painting in 1530

The most important thing
THE WEDDING DRESS
But… what makes it so important after is just the clothing worn by a bride during a wedding ceremony.
Colour? Why white?
We wear white after Queen Victoria made it popular in the 19th century.
What about Red?
Many wedding dresses in China, India (wedding sari) and Vietnam (in the traditional form of the Ao dai) are colored red, the traditional color of good luck and auspiciousness.
And why just one when you can have all you want?
At Japanese weddings, brides will often wear three or more dresses throughout the ceremony and subsequent celebrations with a traditional kimono, white and colour dress combination being popular. White is used, because in Japan it symbolizes death—in this case, the bride becomes dead to her family. The bride will eventually remove her white kimono to reveal another colored one—usually red—to symbolize her rebirth into her husband’s family.
I quite like Japanese style.
Rich or poor? Who are you?
Over the centuries, brides continued to dress in a manner befitting their social status—always in the height of fashion, with the richest, boldest materials money could buy. The poorest of brides wore their best church dress on their wedding day.
Be a 21st century bride and buy a second hand one, if you dare ^_^
“Your dresses should be tight enough to show you’re a woman and loose enough to show you’re a lady.”
Edith Head
I am…We are getting married.
But what’s Marriage?
A social union or legal contract between people. Often formalize via a wedding ceremony.
Too cold, too formal. What is it?
“a more or less durable connection between male and female lasting beyond the mere act of propagation till after the birth of the offspring.” Edvard Westermarck, 1921
Just male & female? Quite old fashion definition…
A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.
John Steinbeck
I quite like this one.
And If you’ve got any questions about what I think:
If I get married, I want to be very married.
Audrey Hepburn
(coming up: Planning a wedding, your worst nightmare…)
One: yes, these are things a lot of my friends (on tumblr or not) say, and yes, I’ve said some of them, too.
Two: I want her hair color. With black tips and bangs. But yes, that’s the color I want. (If you listen closely, you can hear the RealHusband muttering, “Oh good G-d, put the hair chemicals down.”)

This is a reference shot that I took for merchandise for another project I’m working on, but I’ll make the whole outfit available to buy soon, unless you’d like to see it in some different colours...
