Cancer Sucks... but Kristen looked HOT in Korea

Aloha!

I am here:

This is my real life. like WHAT?!

And I'm loving it.

The first thing i want to discuss is Fandom Gives Back. I'm not entirely sure if all of you saw this, but Team 411 is doing a fundraiser for FGB. Why am i mentioning this? Well KSIBTU has a shirt and hoodie available for purchase. Remember how I've been saying that you are the best fans in all of FandomLand? Here's your chance to prove it. If the shirt is not for you then perhaps you can make a small (or large) donation to the cause. 

Fighting pediatric cancer = amazing cause

I woke up on Monday to several e-mails asking me if my name was Jordan, and asking me if I knew these shirts were being made. My answer is NO my name is not Jordan, and YES I knew these shirts were being made (for a couple of months, actually). Jordan, from KSWI, is named Jordan. I am not named Jordan. That was a simple (and very brief) mistake where he was given credit for my site and vice versa. 

So when #411 approached me asking permission to use the KSIBTU name I jumped at the opportunity. Why did I want to do this? We all have a story, and I am going to tell you mine. This is a rather personal story, so this is the closest we will ever be. After I share this with you all, we are officially besties forever and ever.

In November of my freshman year of college, I went home for Thanksgiving break. One morning I received a frantic call from E that I had to get to her. To make a long story short, she sat me down and told me she was diagnosed with cancer. She was 18. A kid. My best friend since 2. Cancer. Cancer claimed the life of her father less than one week before her Bat Mitzvah when she was 13. Cancer killed her grandmother. Cancer killed my grandfather. And yet here cancer was, trying to take away my best friend who was just a fucking kid.

We struggled, a lot. There were treatments, surgeries, pills, shots, and lots of pain. This went on for years... years. One day about two years in, E's mother called me and said I had to come over. When i got there she was sobbing on the stairs.

"She is giving up." Her mom said with pleading eyes, "Please. You have to tell her to fight it." 

 I went upstairs and laid with her as she cried and she finally sat up. She brushed her hair off of her damp face and was nervously looking around. I sat up with her and tried to figure out what she was thinking. Her next words are words I will never forget.

"Sometimes," she said grabbing my hand, "the fate of wood is to burn."

It was her way of telling me that her fate was to die. And it wasn't. From that moment on I vowed never to let her give up, and as her friends we rallied. And to make a long story short, several years later she was told she was in remission the day before her twentysomethingth birthday. She was one of the lucky ones. Thousands of other kids aren't. Pediatric cancer, or cancer in general, is a cause very close to my heart. You and I can help. As humans do what we can, so if you can, please do. The fate of wood is NOT to burn. It can have any fucking fate you want it to.

I'm sorry if that was heavy, but cancer sucks. I hate cancer. Let's move on.

When I went to sleep two nights ago, Kristen had her cheeky little haircut aka post Joan Jett hot hair. When I woke up, Rapunzel, in the form of Her Holy Hotness, was staring me in the face.

Get the eff out.

I love it so much that I actually can't look at it for too long in fear of an overload of hotness. 

I like long hair for the following reasons:

1. It looks pretty and I'm afraid of short hair.

2. My dad told me I looked ugly with short hair when I was in the 3rd grade. TRUE STORY.

3. It gives the guys a little something something to hold onto… IF YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING.

The dress was something I loved.

Are you wearing a sweater?

I didn't like it as much as the one in Australia, but beggars can't be choosers. It sort of reminded me of the cover of Allure, ya know?

hot.

I find this dress dark and sexy. It's also a bodysuit, if you will, showing off all of her lovely lady lumps.

There were also these:

Um yeah, she is defo better than me.

Miles and miles of porcelain leg perfection.

Now let's talk about the shoes. My heart is actually palpitating when speaking of these. When I was in the eighth grade, there was a pair of silver sparkle (legit like glitter) platformy-ish (that's a word) heels. I begged my mother for WEEKS, and one fateful day she bought them for me. Guess what? I wore the shit out of those. I have friends that still talk about how bomb they were. I love glittery shoes.

So one day I was walking through Saks and saw these:

glitter.pumps. Did you hear me? GLITTER.PUMPS.

My heart actually skipped a beat. I belong with flashy shoes, and I don't even wear them once I obtain them. They are in mint condition in perfect boxes in their perfect place in my less than perfect closet.  Then I looked in my bank account and realized that they would have to be placed in my 'hopes and dreams' jar right along with Robert Pattinson.

Ummmmm yeah. Ovaries exploding.

So when I saw that Kristen Stewart was wearing THESE JIMMY CHOOS:

ahhhhhh.....AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I more than died a thousands deaths. I actually think that someone in my family (or one of my best friends) called her stylist and paid her off to make Kristen wear those shoes just to make me want to perish. It's true. Those are my favorite shoes of all time. OF.ALL.TIME.

Now, the face is what I save for last. You know in a movie when they pan up a body and then they stop at the face and zoom in and the clouds part and angels sing? That's real life folks, in the world of CC. Lots of you e-mailed me about this look and ALL of you were dying over the face.

I won't talk about my blotchy face.

Well duh. Anytime she has a little bit of color on the lip everything just looks that much better. The dark eyeshadow illuminates her green eyes and the pink lips just make it pop in an outfit that is otherwise so very dark.

I know I didn't talk about any of the interviews, but I found nothing that was too inspirational or attention worthy. You know what I do love? This:

K: *Fake smile leans in and whispers* If you think you and TaySwift are beating me you are high off your ass

T: *Fake laugh and responds* Yeah okay we'll just see about that! She tweeted. You're going down. Finally.

I know you guys hate Jacob Black (and trust me, no one hates Jacob Black more than I do), but KStew and Taylor are fucking adorable!!! (I hope we're still friends) You can't look at these pictures and not smile! They're so cute!! I like cute.

So now we will go our separate ways until Monday. Why Monday? This is on Sunday.

fav.moment.eva

Want to hear about what a failure at life I am? I have a redeye from Hawaii back to SoCal at 10:45pm on Sunday night. I will be in transit as it airs. Lucky for me, it airs at 9pm EST, which is 3pm Hawaii time, so i'll know what happens before I get to see it. I'm dying with you to watch. No matter what, we know she'll be on that stage. I can't wait to see the outfit and what transpires.

#LetsDoThis

This has nothing to do with anything, but I'm really proud I took this. Thanks for listening.

Because she grew all that hair in one night, KStew is better than you.

[A/N: Listen, I know a lot of you are frantic over what's going on right now. Here's my advice: be above the drama. The more attention you pay it, the less likely it is to go away. By Sunday people will hate her for sitting next to Robert Pattinson anyway. Rise above my peeps! Moving on, PLEASE donate to FGB in whatever way you can. On the last day I will be making a donation in the name of KSIBTU and in the name of E. I know a lot of you wanted Lies shirts and that is all coming... NEXT WEEK! But it isn't attached to FGB so PLEASE donate/ buy a shirt if you can.  Now, what did you think of the Korea look? Fav? Not fav? Did you like the hair? Are you dying over Sunday? I am. I'm going to a pineapple farm today. How badass is that? Tomorrow I'm learning how to surf aka making fool out of myself and paying 100 dollars to do so. I hope you all have the most lovely weekend. I cannot WAIT to talk to you next (muhahahah)! Aloha!]
