Bacon and scorpions

Well I had recently went to the city and hadn't had the time to share this earlier. Walking through east village last Saturday had definitely gave me interesting experiences! First of all, the main reason that I had travelled to the city in the first place, was to find blesbok horns for my costume. Knowing that of stores that would even sell real horns in general was rather sparse, I had done a bit of research on possible places I could score myself some genuine horns! At first I had tried the store Obscura, known for it's television show on the Science Channel, Oddities. I've visited quite often searching for peculiar things, I absolutely love collecting odd things in general. For example, I had recently bought a taxidermy pufferfish that was attached to twine and a small wooden ring like contraption that could easily function as a Christmas ornament! It's rather adorable. But back to the subject, I had walked in with an objective but immediately got distracted by all of the knickknacks and antiques that they sold. I had struck up a conversation with somebody who had worked there, his name was Mark I believe, and he had explained to me how the store had bought a mummified hand and I found that absolutely intriguing. Finding out that they did not in fact sell these horns, I had set my location on another store that mainly specialized in animal bones, taxidermy, jewelry, minerals, shrunken heads etc. called Evolution. To my delight I had found out that they in fact sold these alleged horns! But through further conversation with the people who had worked there I had found out that these horns were attached to a jewelry holder of sorts! You would imagine the frustration. Upon leaving the store I had bought a lollipop with a scorpion inside. I foolishly had bought the green apple flavor, despite my dislike for the flavor. The scorpion itself was rather tasteless. On the way to the station, my father had pointed out that the person next to us was in fact Kevin Bacon with his wife! Which would mean I was in his presence which was pretty jazzy.

So close.. Yet so far..

My résumé is not quite finished. It's not yet up to par, I'd like to improve it a bit. It looks a quite childish.

Interesting Articles, Still Continued.

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/late-finance-pioneer-muriel-siebert-leaves-millions-animals-article-1.1455215 Muriel Siebert, known as Manhattans first woman of finance passed away a bit more than a month ago. Her rank in the stock market world is intriguing in itself, but that is not entirely what caught my eye reading the article. She happened to have been an animal lover. "No leash, no lease" was her motto. Protesting against not letting animals in the building she was currently working at. In her will, she had left her beloved chihuahua 100,000 dollars. 100,000 for a small Chihuahua, whom she had lovingly named Monster Girl, seems a bit silly to some. But she also left millions for animal rescue and care in her wake.

Intriguing Articles, CONTINUED.

From the prior article that I found incredibly interesting, I came across this. http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/poe/poe07.htm There happens to be a song that I absolutely adore called Skirnir by Falkenbach. Well browsing through the web the name Skirnir caught my eye, and immediately I thought of the song. Being completely oblivious that it was an actual tale, I was amazed to see the lyrics matching the actual text in the tale, adding some light to it.

I find the the tale in itself really snazzy, I think I would enjoy it even without knowing there is a song based off it.

Intriguing Articles.

Well, I was browsing the web when I came across this article. http://www.theguardian.com/books/2012/mar/05/five-hundred-fairytales-discovered-germany I find this incredibly intriguing. 500 new fairytales? That could absolutely inspire new films or children's movies. What really peaked my interest about this was the fact that it wasn't entirely directed towards children, a number of the stories were pretty gruesome and morbid, including a story about a young girl who transformed herself into an ordinary pond, due to being in pursuit from a witch. And that same witch happened to choose to take a drink from that pond, then drinking the young girl. Then having the young girl slice through the witches stomach with a blade. Isn't that pleasant? I'd like to read that soon.

Them Heavy People added verse.

Searching for a sense of truth in my lies.
Creating words from a false page.
Making room for that one wisp of hope left.
This truly isn't the end, no it can't be.
