After much anticipation, the day is finally upon us: today is, as I have decided to call it, Wonderland day! The day Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland is released! To say I’m nothing less than bouncing off the walls would be an understatement. The Alice books were two of my childhood favourites growing up, and I always look forward to film interpretations of them. (I think my favourite thus far is the 1999 TV special starring Tina Majorino.) So I think it’s safe to say that I’m very much looking forward to Tim Burton’s film. I, unfortunately, won’t be going to see it this weekend or within the next few weeks as I’m moving into mid-semester projects, but as soon as I have the opportunity, you know I’ll be there squirming with anticipation for the opening credits to roll.

Anticipating… the release of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland in the next few days. The Alice books have been favourites of mine since childhood, so I’m quite excited to see Burton’s take on them.
Also anticipating… the release of the new Goldfrapp album, Head First, and She & Him’s album, Volume II, which are both out this month on March 23! So excited!
Trying… (to no avail) to clean out my feed reader. I have way too many blog subscriptions and I can’t keep up with them any more. How on earth do people decide which to unsubscribe from? This is too hard.
Re-watching… Skins series 1. Classic.
Puppysitting… my aunt and uncle’s dog. She’s so adorable!
Listening… to copious amounts of A Fine Frenzy and Tori Amos. I always go through strange phases with my music.

I’m feeling a little under the weather today, a feeling that tends to bring out either the hopeless romantic in me, my inner child, or a huge wave of nostalgia. In this instance, I have a bit of a case of all three. The only possible cure I could come up with was: breaking out the ole VHS player and popping in a few classic Disney movies to brighten up my day. I find a good happily ever after can be the perfect medicine for when you’re feeling a bit sluggish.

Birman cats.
Listening to music I haven’t listened to in a long, long time and falling in love with it all over again.
Bright Star. ♥ Again. (Why yes, I am obsessed!)
Cliched sailor-style tattoos.
The colour magenta.
Christmas lights that are still on in the middle of January.
Brilliant ideas in the middle of the night.
Homemade blueberry muffins fresh from the oven when the tops are still crunchy.
Snow! (Snow never gets old in my books, and is always happiness inducing.)
Receiving a response to a message I sent Coco Rocha. “Oh you’re sweet. I’ll tweet about it after 7pm! Xoxo” Saving that forever!
Eating so many Sweet Tarts your tongue becomes tingly for hours.
Discovering my Dad also likes Natalie Portman.
