House Guests..

So a couple of days ago I woke up at 5am to the sound of screeching cats. I dont know if any of you have ever heard a sound like this, but its like nails being dragged down a chalkboard, or like baby animals being slaughtered. Its just horrible. I dont know where these cats came from, but it seems as though they have established their permanent residence in my garage. I have yet to figure out how they even got in.

So anyway, today when i was leaving my house, to my surprise what do i stumble upon but four kittens (born about a two days ago) being kicked out of my garage by my dad. I guess the shrieking of the stray cat was it giving birth. Anyway, I decided to share the pics i got of them with all. We were gonna give the kittens away bcuz they are so cute, but we left for like 30 minutes and went back and all the cats were gone. (i guess the parents came and moved them to a new location)

But I Love Her...

AMY WINEHOUSE

Shes my idol! And although I know in my heart i shouldnt say that too loud or too proud, for people may think i idolize all thing negative (drugs, alcohol, making a fool of myself), but i cant help it. I absolutely LOVE Amy Winehouse. And the fact that she battles her inner demons so publicly is such a shame.

Her recent performance at the Rock in Rio Lisbon concert proves that she needs an intervention immediately.


Her obvious disregard for her career is making me extremely sad. Her music is the soundtrack to my life, and the fact that she can no longer sing those songs I love let alone create new pieces, saddens me.

This is the Amy i once adored and looked up to...


but i am now constantly having to see the 'current' Amy...withering away and slowly killing herself.

Its onlii fair that i share with you what i recently seen that made me dedicate this post to the one and only Winehouse, and that was her recent performance at Rock In Rio. Below are the videos of a once amazing rising star, on the road to failure...







Horrible. Embarrassing. Disappointing. and downright Ridiculous! I can onlii hope Amy looks in the mirror and realizes that she can get help..and its never too late for a change/intervention. As upset as it makes me, i will still always root for her.

So instead of leaving this negative imprint of my idol in all of the minds of my fellow bloggers, i will instead leave you with a lovely performance when she was still good... Enjoy!

Imagine All of Us Just The Same..

I'm back..and not by any exciting force... I know i have abandoned LoveHateSensation and all my great blogger pals, but ive been feeling 'blah' these past few months. Blah about school (which is now over thank goodness), blah about my nightlife (which has been rather non existent lately), and blah about everything else I've been around.

But i'm back..I wish with some good news, but no. Instead i'm livid. Livid and annoyed! I went shopping yesterday, one of my favorites, hoping to rekindle that old flame i once shared w/ the wonderful cultural NYC. Instead i was annoyed by everything i saw. And what I saw was modern day conformity....

SoHo, once the place for individuals is now covered with a uniform. But not those classy cute preppy catholic school uniforms (which i wore a mere 2 years ago). No! its a uniform of the Hip Hop Punkster Hipster Posers (my friend likes to call them KANYE-SWAG-DUPLICATORS) .... what is this uniform you may ask? Well it was once something i thought would be cute for the spring, a new look that not everyone could pull off, but those that could would do it with class and dignity. I thought this until i experienced it first hand and it was completely overdone.

The first part of the uniform is the colored skinny jean...


now i myself cannot say i was not once into this jean..matter of fact i bought 3 in the winter excited to let them be seen by the world in spring. But yesterday after seeing them being sold in EVERY store (even on some street corners) and counting 9 girls in Forever21 with the exact same ones on and then a boy outside the store also wearing them, I realized, its time to let the jean go. And that is exactly what I did, I let that jean go to my 9 year old cousin. Maybe she can save it for when style will be recycled by the time shes in her late teens.

Part two of the uniform...the Kanye scarf..


You know you've seen it..cuz i seen it EVERYWHERE, and im sick of it! Now I am a scarf lover myself. I love how they keep my neck warm and are a great outfit accessory, but thats when there is a swift breeze outside, not when its 74 degrees. And i never been a fan of this style scarf to begin with. Now i have a few friends who own this scarf in many colors, and love it with all their might; but for me, this needs to go. If your not a performer on the Glow In The Dark tour and your not Kanye's entourage, maybe its time you let it go!

Keeping on the topic of Kanye, something i saw wayyy too much... shutter shades..


Now i know we couldnt tell Kanye nuthin', but i can tell you something... You look stupid!! your not blocking the sun, and your not wearing a prescription...leave those shades to the pros, K. West himself.

Last part of the uniform which worked my nerves yesterday were the faux gold rope chains:


These chains once made popular by Run DMC back in the day, were all well and dandy back then, but when paired with all these other things..it just doesnt work.


Conformity, I know nothing can ever be done to change this. I mean followers will always need someone to follow. Personally, I am not once to want to look like the next guy, and i am definitely going to try my hardest this summer to avoid this uniform by all cost.

You may agree, or you may not, but I hope that coming back to my old LoveHateSensation with such a passion can onlii bring positive posts in the future...

Bust A Move

So as usual I stumbled across something interesting. These inmates in the CPDRC detention and rehabilitation center in the Philippines dance to choreographed routines. On their main youtube page it says that dancing transforms negativity, and i think its a brilliant idea. Here is my favorite video of them doing Michael Jackson's Thriller (by the way it may look like its a coed prison...but they're all men lol)



heres the youtube page::

Im Back

So im back from vaca and i thought my writers block would be gone but its def. not. I think the gloominess of this weather is getting to me..WHERE IS SPRING??

Anyway i had a great spring break spendin everyday in 90degree weather was wonderful even if it was only a week. Heres a pic of my view from my house:

and heres a good shot i took at the beach; i just think its really exotic looking:


So i dont have much to talk about, but since i came baq i been jamming to MTV and P Diddy's latest hit creation, the boys of Making the Band 4...Day26.


They're cd is so amazing...i LOVE it!!

Heres one of my favorite songs (if it wasnt for you) from their debut cd :

So I plan on being on hiatus for a week and a 1/2 for spring break in the Carribean...hopefully I come back relaxed and ready with daily updates!!!!

Jam Session

So I been jamming to this song lately a friend put me on to...its crazii funny..so i decided to share...

Back to Basics

Ugh I love her so much...always classy and beautiful! Christina Aguilera is the new face of Stephen Webster jewelry and i think she looks amazing.

Another Exhibit

So i went to another art exhibit at my school..this one was directly based on images found on the internet re-created as paintings. The artist, Joy Garnett did a really good job on the exhibit called "Scoundrel Time"...here are some pics i took:

'Cluster'

'Flood'

'Leap'

'Stones'

'Leap'

'Boy With Photograph'

They Grow Up To Fast..

So I visited my aunt this weekend and got to see my little cousin. She's 8 and out of control. Her and her friend were going on telling me all this stuff they know about sex and love and I was like where are you guys learning this from. So they told me that their school library has this book called Its So Amazing which all the kids are borrowing because its so interesting, and they showed me the book. I was truly traumatized. It was a bit too detailed and advanced for my little cousins eyes if you ask me. I'm all for sexual education but thats like in 6th grade not 3rd. And we wonder why these young kids are getting into so many situations. Here are some pics directly from the book.

How Your Body Looks as You Grow Up

The Amazing Sperm Race?

Different Types of Love (straight/gay)

This is all to much. Here a pic of my cousin (on the right) and her friend with this filthy publication.

A Picture Says A Thousand Words

Has anyone seen Lindsay Lohan on the new cover of NewYork Magazine channeling her inner Marilyn Monroe. I personally dont like the shoot, I don't think she did Marilyn any justice....

I Just Cant Stop..

Shopping is definitely my addiction... i just had to get these super hot Chinese Laundry boots.

Fashions fade, style is eternal..

Since I've realli been on my whole fashion rampage these days, I had to add that I have purchased 4 shoes in the past week and to top it off i paid about $85 all together for all 4 (yes i know, im a SmArT shopper!!!)

here are the pics...

Can you blame me for loving shoes and shopping!?

Only Great Minds Can Afford A Simple Style

This past week has been so great for me and yet so sad. Being able to attend two shoes during fashion week is a definite milestone, but now that its over, i miss it already. Anyway, I had to share the second show I was so happy to help out with..the Project Runway Finale!!! And what an amazing show it was. I had to include some of my favorite pieces but of course I wont tell you whose they were and spoil the show:




Here are some of the pics I took:

Heidi Klum


Sweet Pea



Chris


Jillian


Rami

And my husband Christian!!!

I cant wait to see the finale to know who wins (of course my vote goes for Christian)!!
