The Monster Ball – Toronto
So it’s been a long time since I actually went to the concert but I feel that I should FINALLY post something.
My sister and I went to The Monster Ball in Toronto on November 28th and it was incredible. So many people dressed up and I saw some amazing outfits but I didn’t bring my camera with me. Anyway, since I don’t really have any good pics I’ll just post some video’s I found from the show. The opening band Semi Precious Weapons was really funny and the lead singer looked like Brüno. He changed outfits on stage and was quite the actor. I loved them, they seemed almost brit-punk, kind of like glam-ified Sex Pistols. KiD CuDi put on a great show and ever performed Alive in a Max costume out of Where The Wild Things Are. It would have helped if I had listened to his actual album because his mixtape stuff wasn’t performed. He graced the stage during GaGa’s performance for a short rendition of I Poke Her Face which I enjoyed.
My favourite part of the show was when Lady GaGa played Poker Face on the piano. This was the song that started it all for me, spawned my love for her talent and it was amazing live and great to hear it in person. I sang along to all the songs I know but was very reluctant to dance excessively due to my profound shyness. Enjoy the videos.
Random Pictures We Took (Bad Quality)
sorry about the blurriness.

ThreeDee
So recently I started working on my international 3d animation project again with my friend Simen out in Norway. Things are coming along slowly. Just thought I’d post some of my recent small models for the project. Keep in mind my skills are EXTREMELY limited.
Here is the latest preview from Simen of the village as a whole.
And finally A KEYBLADE just because I love Kingdom Hearts that much.

Snoww and Eats!
It was almost out of a movie, (although this post is very delayed) at around 2 am on December 1st we had the first real snowfall in London. Perfect timing. Albeit by morning the majority had melted but not without traces of proof. Either way I ran out to the balcony, mostly naked, at 2am to get some pictures.
I also took a trip to get groceries. To say the least, I have tried my best to cut back on nutritious eating into order to feed another hunger, my longing to spend. The money I save on food helps fund my wardrobe and concert goings. Therefore, this is what my diet consists of.
Delicious!

Pixarpedia
A few weeks ago my sister texted me informing me that her and my dad were going to Chapters and asked if I wanted anything. Back when buses in London still existed, I visited Chapters more then class. I’m pretty sure I read every magazine of interest available as well as The Sartorialist’s book among many others. Anyway, the only thing that came to mind was the Pixarpedia. I saw this book and wanted it instantly. It is an encyclopedia of all the Pixar movies to date.
For those who don’t know, I LOVE Pixar. Any animated movie for that matter, especially 3D ones. I love all of those that are released and have multiple times tried my hand at animation. Anyway, I enjoyed the beautiful artwork so here are a few snaps of it.
Just beautiful. I love Disney and Pixar.

Erin McPhee!
One of my classmates from long ago recently started selling prints of her artwork. I contacted Erin awhile ago because I loved her typography work and just wanted to let her know! Here are a few shots of her work.
Anyway, as soon as I heard about this I had to buy one. Not only does my room need some decorating, but I am always happy to support both independent artists or small business as well as local talent. So here is my latest purchase!
Check out Erin’s site!
