feelbad video of the day

There is a considerable amount of people in this world who say things like "I don't want to watch a depressing movie right now. I'm kind of down so lets watch something that will cheer me up, a "feelgood" movie."

I am not one of these people. Quite the opposite actually. If I'm feeling depressed the only thing that will make me feel slightly better is if I can assure myself that everyone else in the world is equally, if not more depressed than I am. Films, books, music; I love sad people.

Now I am not a big time quoter of other blogs, but I saw this Sophia Coppola for Dior commercial pretty frequently on TV before I came to Iceland for winter break and every time I just wanted to punch blonde candyfloss girl:



And here's what Britt at fashionista.com had to say about this:

If you’re having a good day and there’s a trip to Paris with bicycles and macaroons in your near future, Sofia Coppola’s commercial will make you want to skip down the sidewalk.

But, if you’re having a bad day and the only thing you have to look forward to is next week’s Gossip Girl, this girl’s ridiculously perfect, ridiculously gorgeous life might put you over the edge.

Exactly. What's something I do excessively? Watch Gossip Girl. That's because there are never any macaroon filled romantic trips to Paris in my near future.

things said to me about me in the past 2 days:

former teacher: "everyone likes you" (I know for a fact that this is not true, but at least it means that more than one person likes me and that is good)

current teacher: "you need to chill out" (yes, yes I do)

Rachael London: "AND THIS IS WHAT I ABSOLUTELY HATE ABOUT YOU, MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE EVER: YOU LIKE SOMEONE AND THEN WHEN YOU ARE AROUND THEM YOU COMPLETELY IGNORE THEM AND ACT LIKE THEY ARE THE ABSOLUTE LAST PIECE OF SHIT YOU'D EVER WANT TO SPEND TIME WITH AND THEN YOU COME TO ME AND SAY "why doesn't he talk to me Rachael. I think he doesn't like me.""

(a truer truth has probably not ever been spoken rachael london)
