We Can Dance If We Want To

by Leila Dayne


I admit it…

I have an un-natural obsession with the “Safety Dance” song.

I don’t know how to explain it, or for how long I’ve had it. All I know is, I love it.

2345

I also love movies…especially movies with DANCE SEQUENCES!!! So can you IMAGINE how happy I was when I found this video of dance sequences from 77 different movies SYNCED UP WITH SAFETY DANCE!!!???!?!?!?!

Heaven; guys….I WAS IN HEAVEN!!!

Happy Wednesday everyone!!!!

All My Love,

Ohhhhh Shinnnnyyyyy!!

I’ve made no attempts to hide my very obvious over obsession with everything Great Gatsby at the moment, and luckily I’m not alone which is great for feeding my fanaticism :]

Today I finally got around to checking out Tiffany and Co.‘s “Jazz Age” collection with pieces made for or representing the movie.

Sadly, I don’t have the disposable income for…well…ANY of these pieces but they sure are gorgeous to look at!! I made sure to take screenshots so you could see the prices!! Sheesh!! Tho if I had $200,000 dollars to blow on a head-piece you could fucking bet it would be that one!!!

Also, I stumbled upon this quote today that I just adored!!

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.” – Eric Roth (From the screenplay of F. Scott Fitzgerald‘s ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button‘.)

Having All The Answers…Sort of…

by Leila Dayne


As I was bouncing around the internet today, I came across this really cool little graphic.

It’s a beautiful little chart that lists some of the most commonly asked job interview questions and then gives you handy insight on how best to formulate your personal answers to them.

This would come in soooooo very handy for those out there looking for a job, but also just in general as something to look over and review so that if these questions ever come up in a business or personal setting you can already have a well thought out response.

I’m always thoroughly stumped by the question of “Tell Me About Yourself.” It’s not a hard question, of everything in the world…I know the most about myself. But when put on the spot, in either a business or personal setting, it becomes a hard question for me to answer. How many good things can I say without sounding cocky? How many negative qualities before I sound like a self pitying cry baby? By giving yourself the time to really think about this in advance you can build a platform of ideal responses in your head that can be added or subtracted from if they ever come up without panicking and becoming the deer in the headlights :]
