9:53:06 AM stam: oh yeah updating
9:53:08 AM stam: i should do that
9:53:19 AM alex in the ussr: yes you should if you get kicked i'll never breathe again
9:53:45 AM stam: dont lie a lot more people could keep you breathing besides me
9:53:53 AM alex in the ussr: no i'm seriousthat was from yesterday morning, but i am still convinced that alex suarez is a liar. just because we consider ourselves husband and wife to one another, doesn't mean that we have a totally loving relationship like he thinks that we do. in fact, i think that it's far from an affectionate, meaningful relationship and the only thing that we ever bond on are episodes of law and order: special victims unit and things of that nature. other than that i love to tell him that he doesn't love me the way that he does, no matter what sort of suggestive sort of comments will come out of that boy's mouth.
but, that being said, i guess that it's time for me to update because if not i'm sure mc
login will get pretty pissy on me and give me the boot. which obviously i can't afford to have happen because well i don't really want it to happen and things like that. so here i am, in the middle of the afternoon, sitting in bed and enjoying this sunday. i don't want to go outside because the east coast weather has been a little on the ridiculous side as of late and can't make up it's mind about what it wants to do, or how it wants to be. take for example right now, it's 25 degrees but it feels like 11. so needless to say i am in no rush to get out of my apartment. i even skipped the morning starbucks run so that i wouldn't have to leave my warm bed. instead i put my espresso machine to work that i've probably used twice. but today it got it's use and i've been lounging around in my pajamas all day long. a sight that i'm sure everyone wants to see, for sure.
right now i'm not even sure where i should be going with this. lately i've just had so much down time that i'm starting to go a little stircrazy. though, since the last time i had updated there has been a million things going on in my own personal life. none of which i'm sure i want to bring up and out into the open. it's something that i had never really talked about in detail before, so now it's just like, should i stray away from all of the nameless, hintfilled updates that i had had before just to go into detail for this one? who knows, i've got a long way to go before i'm done with this so i've got awhile to think about it. but yeah, like i said, for now things have just been a little on the slow side, though the pace for which things are going to be happening is going to start picking up really, really soon. new york fashion week starts february 1st and from there the whole month of february is going to be nuts. it's always like that twice a year since i'll go from new york to london to milan to paris and back to new york. sometimes i'll hang around milan or paris to shoot some things. i can't even really wait until it all starts up again because i'm getting to that point where i'm getting ridiculously ansty and just need something to do.
the new spring campaigns are out, so you'll soon be seeing my face on the billboards and in magazines for
dior and
dolce & gabbana. both of the ads this time around turned out amazing, if i do say so myself, and i'm really excited about flipping through the magazines and seeing my face. jk, jk. i am not that into myself and if i were i would probably want to kill myself for sounding like such a wench. in addition to the spring campaigns that are out there, there's also this ridiculous acid trip-y editorial in the new issue of V magazine that includes myself and a male model luke warrall. i saw the finished product the other day and it's just so crazy and nuts and it's probably one of the favorites that i've ever done just because it could have been so bad, but it had turned out to be so good. i honestly felt like i was being pulled out of a scene from fear and loathing in las vegas like i've dripped too much acid or took too many shrooms. that's really what it feels like and if you want to see it, you can go ahead and look at it
here. don't say i didn't warn you about all the prints and the colors and everything like that. because i did!
so in my time off i've been watching a lot of movies and going to a lot of movies and i've done a couple events too. adrian grenier and i are involved in this "charity: water" charity and before christmas we held the second annual event for it. it's something that's a totally great cause where you really get to help people who don't have clean water. in a way it's sort of like what the ethos water does and provides clean, drinkable water for people who don't have it in countries less fortunate than the one we live in. the basic premise is they sell bottles of water for $20, which most people would think that twenty bucks is a little ridiculous, but all of the proceeds from it go to fund well building and construction in places like africa, india, and bangledesh. every year that we've done it (so far it's been two that we've done the annual ball, but they do other events all the time) it's been a total blast and we raise so much money to help these people out. even you guys can help out and check out the
website to learn more about it.
but let me get off of my soapbox for a minute because i'm sure no one wants to hear me preaching about what you can do to help other people. lately i've been watching a lot of american psycho and i've been quoting it left and right. on top of being one of my favorite books i've ever read (yes, i do read) it's also one of my favorite movies. there's no possible way that you can get enough of patrick bateman and his ridiculous psychotic, yet oh so humorous antics. i mean who else runs around with a chainsaw naked aside from his sneakers? and yeah, i said sneakers. speaking of that scene,
here it is in all it's youtube'd glory and it's at times like these that i wish ij would let us embed them, that would be fantastic.
i've decided that this update has been a total load of bs and not worth anything, and i've also decided against talking about some things that i could be talking about. there are just certain things that don't really need to be made public. it's not worth it and is definitely just something that should be kept between myself and the other person. you know who you are and that's that. so i guess to wrap this up it's time to say what's up to ashlee, jenny, joel, adam, and alex. and if i forgot anyone, then hello to you too.
see you in three weeks.
