Edward Herera's IKEA Manifesto

While shopping for a hip new nightstand (which we all know is essential to survival!) I came across something interesting. Tucked onto a shelf between some storage baskets and a kids toy chest was one of the store shopping lists, these brochures with a store map and a little grid for writing down the names and numbers of furniture you want to buy. Someone in pencil with very bad handwriting had scrawled all across the back of it and left it behind. Maybe he thought it would be funny. Maybe he did it because he was bored and his mom came to find him and he panicked and hid the evidence. I say "he" because this handwriting is 9-13 year old boy bad, and if it were anyone older I would suggest remedial school. Anyway, I thought, since Edward Herera (he signed his name) had something to say, I should help him say it.

IKEA SHOPPING LIST:

by Edward Herera

Ikea sucks balls and rusty and old they have everything very expensive and it's a rip off It is only for rich people with a lot of money

THAT'S WHY THIS STORE IS GAY

Interesting point of view, young Edward Herera. If you are ever interested, I might be willing to make some calls to their corporate headquarters and see if I can't set up a lively roundtable discussion between yourself and a representative of the IKEA company. Possibly televised? Possibly CNN? I look forward to hearing from you.

Things I've discovered lately...

There is no damn point to a cappucino. Seriously. What the hell is the point? Foam?

When I do chassez in dance class and I'm jumping I look sorta like Spiderman jumping off of buildings and things. I am not of graceful plus good.

My mother thinks so much of Riders in the Sky that she not only attends their concert but feels the need to share it with me by sending an autographed glossy 8 x 10. Oh, mom.

I managed to argue and sucessfuly prove to my Vocal Production class that Encino Man is indeed a modern day reincarnation of Pygmalion. Take that, George Bernard Shaw!

Carnivale is an awesome show.

I am actually very excited to be missing Thanksgiving. I have realized I don't much like turkey when it isn't on a San Fran Melt.

I had forgotten until now much I love the play SubUrbia. It has as much to do with the story as it does with my love of spending time at 7-11.

Check Me Out!

Its no secret that I love to read fashion magazines. I just luuurv them. Problem is, I don't really enjoy the high-end stuff like Vogue or Elle. They're really high-end, and a little frosty. I like my fashion funky and...ehm...cheap. I don't really have much opportunity or desire to buy a six-thousand dollar black versace dress. Show me how to make legwarmers out of old shirts? That's gold! So Vogue or Elle, no. A new crop of funky younger magazines are here though, from the same people. Kinda. I am proud to stand up and say that I read ElleGirl and Teen Vogue. They are awesome. They also welcome reader contributions of art, zines, photos, collages, etc.

So you can imagine how loud I made that squealy girl noise when I opened up my new issue of ElleGirl and right smack dab at the top of page 22, the Reader Contribution page, is the postcard I sent in!!! I love my random deco art and apparently so do the wonderful people at one of my favorite favorite magazines. If anyone wants see for themselves pick up a copy of the December/January issue of ElleGirl with Gwen Stefani on the cover. Look for the name Lola on page 22. Punkrockpunkrockpunkrock!
