The Weekly Musing #5

If you don’t know what The Weekly Musing is, feel free to check out a brief description of what it’s about by clicking here. Otherwise, let’s get things started…

The Weekly Musing #5

Before the Super Bowl kicks-off this evening (haha, pun fully intended on that one), take a minute to ponder these football-related questions. I’m not much of a football enthusiast, so I am going to try my best on this one… lol.

• First of all, do you even plan on watching the Super Bowl?
• What are some of your favourite foods to eat during football games?
• If you could pick the musical act for the half-time show, who would you pick and why?
• If you won tickets to the Super Bowl, would you go to the event or sell the tickets for a ridiculous amount of money?
• Name your favourite football movie, or your favourite football-related moment from any movie.

Thanks in advance for participating! Feel free to comment with your responses and/or repost the Musing on your own page. I look forward to reading what you have to say!

The Weekly Musing #4

It’s been a while since I’ve posted one of these. Probably because nobody was doing them, and I was extremely busy over the fall months.

Since I have been doing these daily memes, I have come up with some pretty good questions of my own and I decided, Why not start my own meme?

As the name implies, The Weekly Musing will be a (hopefully) weekly meme about pretty much anything that has come to my mind recently (observations, thoughts, ideas, etc.) and will include some corresponding questions. Topics might include a TV show I have been watching, a new album I listened to, a dream I had, a movie I saw… anything goes.

I am going to aim to post The Weekly Musing on Sundays and any questions will be answered on Saturdays. Feel free to answer The Weekly Musing at any point during the week. Next Saturday I will answer the questions that I posted below (as well as any others that were asked) for this week’s Musing, and next Sunday there will be a completely new musing.

The Weekly Musing will be apart of Fuchsia Revolver and a seperate category will be created for the entries. If you want to link to The Weekly Musing or mention it to everyone you know that blogs, please do…

Admittedly, I am partial to specific genres of movies and music, television shows, baseball (as opposed to any other kind of sport)… but that doesn’t mean that you have to be. If you want to share something that you have been musing over, or have some great questions and ideas you want to share, don’t hesitate to email me and I will gladly feature your musings at some point in the future. If nothing else… it is a plug for you and your site!!! Yay promotion!!! Who doesn’t like promotion?? Having said that, if you have something to say and want to have your site promoted, my email address is systematicdecline[@]gmail[.]com. I want my inbox filled with messages by noon tomorrow. Seriously, damn it.

Let’s get things started…

The Weekly Musing #4

Considering the holidays that have just passed by and the ones that are to come, this Musing is all about the holiday season. I’ll try to make the questions relatively generic, so answer them based on whatever holiday you celebrate.

• What were your wishes for the holiday season, material (presents – who doesn’t love them?) and non-material? Did you get everything you wished for?
• Name the funniest present (i.e. a gag or joke gift) you gave to someone or someone gave to you. It can be something from this year or from years past.
• What are some of your favourite foods to eat around the holidays?
• How are you going to spend your New Years Eve? What are your hopes and wishes for the new year to come?

Thanks in advance for participating! Feel free to comment with your responses and/or repost the Musing on your own page. I look forward to reading what you have to say!

The Weekly Musing #3: Results

Nobody participated.

If you don’t know what The Weekly Musing is, feel free to check out a brief description of what it’s about by clicking here. Otherwise, let’s get things started…

The Weekly Musing #3

Like the first Musing I posted, this Musing is also inspired by TV – specifically, TV shows related to fashion, make-overs, etc.

• Last Wednesday on Bravo, the final three Shear Genius stylists battled it out for $100,000 in their final challenge and a winner – Dee – was crowned. If the winning stylist or another celebrity stylist could do your hair, how would you want it? Post a picture of your ideal hairdo.


I love Rhianna’s bob haircut. It is so refreshing to see celebrities, like Rhianna and Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham, who are not afraid to wear shorter hair and look amazing. Aside from the bob, she has some other sexy short(er) styles, too.

As far as the colour is concerned, I actually liked the way my hair looked black, but I didn’t like the way it looked like shit when it was growing out and I didn’t like the sloppy cut. Both were faults of my own, of course, because I should have gotten it cut more often and kept up with the colour. Anyway, I love the way black hair with hot pink and platinum streaks looks on some people. While I don’t know how it would look on me, I would try it out in a heartbeat if I could have it done by a professional, especially if that person has a passion for creating funky-looking hair.

• Would you go on an extreme makeover program, such as What Not To Wear? How would you react to having your favourite outfit insulted and thrown away by the “fashion forward” hosts of the show?

I think it would be fun to go on an extreme makeover program just because I would be curious to see what suggestions they would give me and what they would change about my “style.” I am not sure that I would take all of their comments and suggestions because, from what I have seen, a few of their “makeovers” didn’t look that spectacular. Also, I wouldn’t consider some of the outfits that I have seen the hosts’ wear to be that posh, so who the hell are they to completely insult some of my articles of clothing? Everyone has a few fashion “dilemmas” and different tastes, even celebrities and people who claim to know fashion.

Moreover, I frankly laugh at some people who look too put together 24/7, and I also laugh at some of the things that are considered “fashionable” and “haute couture.” The “polished work outfit” the makeover show hosts would pick out might look a little too “polished” and too “I just purchased all of these pieces, including the matching accessories, and I am going to wear the same outfit an infinite number of times since the whole thing cost $1,000 and I was only allowed one ‘polished work outfit’ from the show…” And what happens if you forget to put on one of the twenty matching accessories; is the outfit no longer “polished” and “put together”??

• If a Project Runway finalist could design any type of garment for you, whether you want a sexy swimsuit to sunbathe in or a beautiful dress to hit the town in, what would you have him/her design? Be creative! Specify the type of garment, fabric, colours, accents, etc.

I am pretty basic, so I am going to say a corset made out of a luxe silk or velvet with accents like piping or rivets. Something hot that can be worn many different ways. I would also want a somewhat-matching skirt and trench, and killer boots.
