goodbye minimalism....and hello to you*bottom.

Sigh... i really shouldnt have changed my blog template.
Because my old one was no longer available on the blogger template selection.
Now i am stuck with the new fancy but over-compartmentalised themes to choose from. As can be seen. I feel so restricted now. Like... restricted. Just look at the invisible lines around this post. Urgh!
It's disgusting.
Sigh.
I think blogger was thinking it was doing users a favour by 'upgrading' to more 'modern' themes.
Sigh.
Gone are the days of stylish minimalism.
The secret to everything timelessly, good-looking.
You know what's the real problem?
The real problem is that people think that more is good.
oh here we go: the age-old flawed beyond recognition equation of more=good.
Omgoons i wonder who came up with that warped concept because it is so inherent in our society today and it could possibly be the cause for everything going haywire.
Including, the blogosphere.
I use to remember, i still do it actually, i would/will visit blogs and literally, cringe when music starts playing (pls dont get offended if your blog plays music because there are always exceptions in life), and when there are so many things on a single page my eyes go into a "where's-wally-mood", just that this time i am not finding wally, i am finding the words that form the posts of the blog to read.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it is that bad.
And now, behold, for i have become just like one of em.
GASP. the horror...... (wow i didn't know i could be so dramatic)

.................................................................................

Okay, wait i just have to show you what i mean.
This is what a house would look like if you designed it, based on minimalism.



Ta-da! Gorgeous ain't it? Precisely.

Now, what about minimalism in....... fashion?



oh my. beau-ti-ful.
I have always been a firm believer in the minimalist-movement.
Excess, as my English teacher always says, denies.

ANWY, my title says hello to bottom with a star, on bottom because i am not quite sure how many of us know who bottom is.
Yes, that's right, bottom is actually a who.
Not the best buds you constantly make to kiss the floor.
Bottom as in the fictitious character Shakespeare brings to life in, A Midsummer Night's Dream. (i hate this play btw)
Anyways, bottom in the play is this obnoxious, yet lovable character, who, literally makes an ass of himself.
So thus, hello to you bottom, because my theme now and everything else that constitutes this blog just screams obnoxious now.
Be it the larger than life fonts, or the louder than loud backgrounds.
Urgh...
sadsad.
Oh wells, what's a girl to do?
But to embrace it.
