PrettyBaby liked a post in a topic by Hello Heaven in Your Least Favourite Song From Btd?
haha, I think we were born to live aswell and sometimes I don't really feel like listening to the song but I feel that when I skip a song, my mind then starts to think I don't like it or something so I get annoyed everytime it plays. So I try and avoid that.

I thought this interview was downright incredible. As an artist myself, it was fucking rejuvenating to read

It's "Indebted". "Indebited" is not a word.

The only books I have read this year are Hunger Games, Catching Fire & Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, they're pretty amazing. I've also read Of Mice & Men for school. But, as I've just started English Literature for College I've got to read Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and also Dracula by Bram Stoker. Then I have to read Jane Eyre. But apart from studies, I'm interested in reading Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov (No guesses why

You did film and editing, no? Come on, you should understand the brilliance of this editing. This is hilarious. H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S.

Okay, this is freaky. This thread inspired me to go listen to Ceremonials (which I downloaded about a month ago for 99 cents but haven't listened to yet). Then another thread inspired me to go check out the book/film Never Let Me Go. Then the Florence song comes on.
I'm just a little weirded out right now.

'Hello heaven, you are a tunnel lined with yellow lights on a dark night'.
I love that line but honestly, Lana's just such a fabulous songwriter. She's never let me down.

PrettyBaby liked a post in a topic in When I Met Lana
I just copied and pasted it from the Tumblr page I made about it right after, so I never forget:')
Just so everyone knows, by posting this I am not showing off about the fact that I met her, it's just that people often ask me about it so I thought it easier to put it here..
If you don't already know, Lana is my idol. My favourite music is by her; I love her fashion sense; I love her personality. Basically I love everything about her.
I met the flawless Lana Del Rey on 10/4/12 outside the Jazz Cafe in Camden, London. I'm under 16, so couldn't get tickets for the gig, but waited outside for hours in the rain to see her. Call it weird or say I'm a stalker, but waiting 6 hours was worth it. When she got out of the car there was a huge crowd so for about half an hour my friend and I just hung back then waited by the door so she couldn't get in without speaking to us. Lana signed autographs and I just stood in the crowd basically in total shock. Some of the stuff Lana did / said was pretty funny. Someone held out a Complex Magazine for her to sign and she pointed to it and said, 'Ooh I like this one, it's so pretty', which is kind of weird to say about yourself, but so sweet! At one point one of her managers / security (I don't know who!) said 'Lana, you've got to go inside now ' and she turned to him and said, 'Fuuuuuuck you!" and laughed. He then decided to stay quiet. The crowd was backing into the road and taking up so much space, there must have been over 100 people. Everyone was pushing and shouting and she looked kind of scared. It was the first time she'd been in public with her newly dyed dark hair and when I first saw her I knew she looked different but it took me about 5 minutes to realise it was her hair. She actually looked quite different to how I thought she'd look. She wasn't wearing loads of makeup, just fake lashes, eyeliner, and lipliner all over her lips. I thought she'd be quite tall but she was only about 5"6' ish, which is huge compared to me, but average for a woman, I guess. When I met her she told me she loved my Lana t-shirt, signed it, signed my phone case (which sadly rubbed off) and wrote an adorable note for a friend who was too ill to come and meet her. When I told her that my friend had been admitted to hospital that morning she said 'Oh my gosh, poor thing', and pulled a sad face. She took photos with me, (it took my friend three attempts to get an okay photo of us as I was shaking so much so the first 2 turned out so blurry), and I gave her mine and a friends letter to her. She said, 'Are those for me? Awww baby, thank you!'. I thanked her for following me on Twitter, and she asked my username, I told her, she gasped, started laughing and then said, 'Oh my god, baby, it's you?! I've read your messages, aww sweetie, baby! No Way, I can't believe it's you!'. She held my hand for ages whilst everyone was shoving and pushing, as there were lots of people and I was probably the youngest and smallest. As I was next to her for ages she kept looking down at me and smiling. She kissed my cheek 4 times and hugged me 4 times. She thought I was about to cry, (I wasn't, I was just trying not to say something weird and fangirly to her!), so cupped my face in her hands and said 'Aww baby!'. My friend kept saying stuff to me such as 'Oh my god Chloe you're shaking so much!', 'You look like you're about to faint!' and 'I've never seen you so happy!', and then I said stuff to my friend like 'I think I've died and gone to heaven, oh my god, this is the best day of my life', not realising that Lana was listening. Whenever she heard one of us say something about my weird fangirlness she started giggling and would squeeze my hand. When she kissed and hugged me goodbye, she said 'We'll stay in touch'.. I know that she read the letter I gave her because she passed round the envelope for fans to write their Twitter names on so that she could follow them, and she followed them the next day. I gave her a friend's letter with mine, and she followed my friend the next day, ahhhh! It was seriously the best day of my life. The day after I met her I went to New York and sat on the plane listening to her music still in shock.
By the way, Lana messaged me on 29th August and one of the things her message said was that of course she remembers me, ahh!
Just a couple of crappy phone snaps I managed to get.. my hands were shaking too much to take anything better!
Found a paparazzi photo of Lana signing my phone case, haha!

I was happy, upset and angry all in one lol. And true, but maybe just not in a conventional manner.

Cleopatra liked a post in a topic by PrettyBaby in Book Thread!
The Hunger Games series was amazing, all three of them.
A new favorite author of mine is China Mieville; his sci-fi/fantasy heroines are quite interesting. Embassytown is a wild look at how language can function (sounds boring, but it's not -- I love analyzing communication!). Un Lun Dun is a Young Adult book, but grownups can enjoy it too; it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland, but funnier and modern.
I'm addicted to Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire series (Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood), and I devoured Deadlocked in two days. I'm in the middle of The Sookie Stackhouse Companion -- worth checking out; the new novella at the beginning was quite good.
Another favorite read this summer was Divergent by Veronica Roth. I am next on the waitlist at my library to get the sequel, Insurgent, and I am too excited.

As long as she find a medium for expressing her creativity is ok . She's unique and I do think she has a lot more to say , be it in a song or a movie .
