Alex Turner, 25, slips entirely alone into an empty art-crowd brasserie looking like an indie girl’s indie dream boy: mop-top bouffant hair which coils, in curlicues, directly into his cheekbones, army-green waist-length jacket, baggy-arsed skinny jeans, black-cord zip up cardigan, simple gold chain, supermoon-sized chocolate-brown eyes.
Alex Turnerism
Being completely, utterly obsessed with Alex Turner, lead singer of Arctic Monkeys. Symptoms may very, but often include: stalking pictures of Alex Turner, daydreaming about Alex Turner, and constantly talking about Alex Turner.
^I think I have a serious case of this. Reblog if you do too?
Things I can and cannot do according to Alex Turner:
Can:
- break a mirror
- roll the dice
- run with scissors (specifically through a chip and fire fight)
- go into business with a grizzly bear
- find a well-known hardman and start a fight
- wear my shell suit on bonfire night
- fill in a circular hole with a peg that’s square
- bite the lightning and tell him how it tastes
- kung fu fighting on my roller skates
- do the macarena in the Devil’s lair
Can’t:
- sit down
I’m really in love with this man…
Dear All,
Since the big earthquakes hit Japan in the afternoon of Friday, 11th March 2011, we have received so many heartfelt messages from all over the world and truly appreciate your sympathies and encouraging words. I would like to reply to each of you separately, but please allow me to send this message to you all on my return to the office after the anxious weekend. Luckily, Haruki Murakami and his family were away from Japan when the earthquakes struck and are still in a safe place. Also, all his staff members in Japan are okay and have got no direct damages. As you should know from media reports, the earthquakes and tsunamis have caused serious damages in northeastern Japan. So far, Tokyo is safe, though we are still frightened by aftershocks and possible induced quakes. I really hope that as many lives as possible are saved and believe your prayers reach suffering people in this country.
With many thanks and best wishes,
Assistant to Haruki Murakami
(3/14/11).
