kerri & eva.

Dear Anon, we would LOVE that.

Any little scraps of kindness that you ever feel like throwing our way would be incredibly appreciated; such love would be returned to you tenfold!
You can do so here: http://kerri-and-eva.tumblr.com/ask - our ask box is always open. :)

Thank you for this message, you beautiful human.

Make us think.

I’d like to point out that I am in dire need of a film where him and Tom Hardy play brothers.

Or, you know, if that’s not possible, just give me something where they can work together; on my screen, in the same scenes, looking completely dashing.
(No, Wuthering Heights does not count.)

I considered posting more pictorial evidence, but that would be overly obsessive - just scroll down.

Apparently, this blog has become a shrine to Harry Potter, The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural. In essence, it’s become a true reflection of my life.

But it was completely unintentional, I swear! I’ve been trying to post more Disney and.. well, anything that isn’t related to the aforementioned fandoms. It’s just so hard to not love them as much as I do and, you see, I just want you to all see how wonderful they are.

Because they are - wonderful, I mean. They’re so wonderful that I could just cry with it all.

Okay, so I’m being ridiculous. Nothing new there.

I’d like to tell you that I’m going to post less of those things but that’s just never going to happen. I love them too much; what can you do? /shrug. Anyway, I’m instead going to assume that you either love them as much as I do, or you’re just used to me and my bouts of obsessiveness.

Yeah, I’m well aware that this post has been completely pointless.
Kerri, x

Ps. I’ve really been wanting to post this gif for so long and I feel as though now is the time regardless of the fact that it has no actual significance.

Kerri-and-Eva is the featured blog in Girlfriend Magazine’s May issue!

BLOG LOVE
KERRI-AND-EVA.TUMBLR.COM

These Aussie girls love Harry Potter (us too!), The Vampire Diaries (hear, hear!) and gifs of Jensen Ackles (who doesn’t?!), so therefore, we love them. With their regular posts about cute celeb guys, movies, TV shows and a whole bunch of other stuff we heart, you can’t tear us away. Go. Read. Now.

Guys, we’re so bloody honoured! You’ve just got no idea. This is completely unexpected and lovely!

Running this blog has been an absolute ball and every time we can make you laugh or cry or think about something brilliant, just keep in mind that we’ve posted it because we too have had those responses. That said, it can be difficult at times to maintain a steady flow of posts and, in addition to that, try to post something for everyone. We like to mix news, gossip, TV shows and movie posts with personal blogs that hopefully (and maybe even apparently?) keep you all entertained. 

To know that the hard-work that’s gone into running this blog has been acknowledged and loved is just amazing. Amazing.

Also, when a magazine both notices and mentions the sheer number of Jensen gifs you’ve posted, it’s probably pretty safe to assume you’ve got a Jensen-Ackles-gifs addiction.. His face is just so beautiful expressive!

That’s all for now.
All our love,
k&e.

Frankie and I got home from a wonderful little movie night at Grace’s - 10 Things I Hate About You and Sister Act - just after 1:00am and poured ourselves into bed for a somewhat philosophical chat about life, love and the universe.

Woke up this morning, said goodbye to Frankie as she showed herself out, and went back to sleep. Woke up again this afternoon and headed into the city as I had to run some errands for Mum. I ended up detouring to Borders.. who are having their closing down sale.. It was a bad decision on my part because I know how terrible I am at saying no to books. Hence, these lovely little pieces of literature are now mine (or my parents’):

• The Rembrandt Affair by Daniel Silva.
• Sunflower by Colin Mclaren.
• The Collected Stories of Katherine Mansfield by Katherine Mansfield.
• The Comedy of Errors by William Shakespeare.
• Absolute Power by David Baldacci.
• 18 Best Stories by Edgar Allan Poe by Edgar Allan Poe.

As if this hadn’t made me happy enough, I then got a call from Eva whilst still in my own person bookstore-heaven! She said, “Uhm, so, apparently we’re in this month’s issue of Girlfriend Magazine,” obviously trying to maintain some semblance of calm. I may or may not have squealed an altogether too-loud ‘what’ somewhere in the midst of my questioning of her, but I was able to find out a few things.

Georgie Carroll had tweeted Eva to let her know, Eva had called me pretty much instantly, and had also found out we were in the ‘Click It’ section of the magazine. Well, that’s all I really needed to know! Borders was out of Girlfriend so I headed into a near-by newsagency to pick up a copy.

Check out the next post for more on our own little appearance in Girlfriend Magazine!

WE’RE GETTING A SEVENTH SEASON! YES!

(For the bad news, click here)

Yeah, they both attended.. you know, no big deal there.. they’re just going to festivals and movie premieres together, and holding hands (what is this, Kerri, primary school?)!

Shh, it’s wonderful.

it’s my sister’s engagement party today/tonight and we’re quite —

okay, apparently i don’t have time to talk. she’s freaking out a little about early guests and getting everything ready in time. i’m off to go do as much as i can without getting in the way.

i’ll post pictures from the night as soon as i can - just wait until you see the garden, it looks so lovely.

if i could wrap up all the possibility in this world, all the choices and all the futures, i would fold it neatly in a handkerchief and hand it carefully to you.

in your little palms would be the answers to your uncertainties, and you would be safe and secure in a world i’ve crafted out of darkness, just for you; all the subjects of shadows called to the frontline and prodded into forming your army, falling to their knees in servitude.

at your command they would ward off demons and the dark spirits they formerly coerced with in plans for your demise. at your command, they would smooth all future paths and clear the way for your tentative steps into this world of possibility. and at my command, they would promise a safe journey into all the unknowns you once feared or simply could not see for all the darkness that hindered your usual perceptiveness. at my command, you would have this world at your feet and at your bidding.

if i could, i would give you all the positivity that the real world has to offer. all the good and wonderful and lovely things would all be yours. i would give you every beautiful song and every brand new sight. as it is, i give you every first and last thought and every ounce of faith i possess, which isn’t much in the big picture but is everything in mine.

Mmhm, that’s right!

i think i’ve distracted myself so thoroughly from my own problems by working hard for the last two weeks (and trust me, that’s a long time for me to go without drowning on my sorrows a bit here and there) that, by not giving them a second thought, i’ve only exacerbated everything.

brushing them aside in addition to being asked to talk about them, which i actually don’t mind because, every now and then, it’s good for me to talk about the things that are bothering me, it can all just be a bit.. i don’t know how to explain this.
it’s easy enough for me to speak about things. it’s later, after the purging of thoughts, that hurts.

i just tell myself that it helps to talk about the things that bother me. not only does it alleviate some of the pressure one feels from harbouring such burdens, but it also allows one to work through thoughts and emotions more actively - i often find that i understand to a better degree why i’m upset after i’ve had a good chat with a friend.

so, i would like to offer you my ears eyes and compassion. please feel free to talk to me about anything. if you need to get something off your chest or you’re struggling with something, let me help you talk it out. we can even try to find some solutions together.

you’ve been here to see my problems tumble across these pages, so let me take some of your concerns in return.

the more research i do, the more i am outraged and overwhelmed by the injustices hidden amongst the laws that govern our country. i am also saddened that the only people fighting for change are those that are deeply affected by it. and the people against change are simply scared, fear of the unknown urges them to cling to a mindset from medieval times.

Chris Colfer: For his pitch-perfect portrayal of a gay teen.
By Dianna Agron.

(an excerpt)
Chris has always wanted to be an actor, as he says, “since I was an embryo,” which gave him the determination to say, “Yes, I can,” despite the many who had said no. Chris, 20, who lives by extreme truth, speaking out against the epidemic of bullying that he, too, faced in high school. The honesty that he infuses into his Glee character, Kurt, leaves you reeling. Our cast is blessed to hear things like, “Your character has helped me through this, or helped me do that,” but none more so than Chris. To witness the power he gives to his audience firsthand? It’s wonderful.

Dianna.. This cast is so lovely.

sometimes i wonder if all the secrets i’ve kept, all these little niggling thoughts, are doing some serious psychological damage. i wonder if they’re all going to come out at some point in my life and cause a riot; cause fires to start without warning; cause walls to crumble at my feet.

the bringer of dismay and an upheaval of ideals amongst my family, as truth after truth is brought before the attention of the jury and judged upon. all i’ll be able to do is huddle amongst the scrambling of walls and whatever remnants of facades we once maintained as their stares focus on me and hone in with harmful sharpness.

how much am i hiding from myself so that i don’t have to risk ever facing the consequences?

maybe it’s all in my head. maybe it will stay there.
k.

so, this is what i looked like last night when i finally got home. i had just worked 7am - 9pm days for.. a week and a half, plus a sunday and the work crew had gone out to celebrate with a ‘few’ drinks. my sister (whom i work with/for) and i didn’t stay long - we’re old souls inside and our beds were calling, plus i wasn’t feeling too well and her fiance was waiting for her so he could have dinner.

you know, if i’ve learnt anything these last couple of weeks, it’s that my sister and i get along better than i ever thought was possible.

i’ve been with her for just about every single waking hour in the last two weeks and i haven’t gotten sick of her once; we’d even come home from work and watch a movie together some nights. even when she lived at home we didn’t spent this much time together.

the respect and admiration i have for her as a person has grown immensely. i’ve always thought she was wonderful simply because she’s my big sister; she does things first, guides when necessary, teaches, aids and comforts - all the things a big sister should do. working with her has given me a chance to see her differently.

if we’re as alike as everyone says (we won’t often admit that we are), this has certainly given me some hope for my future.

“Paul Wesley wants Stefan to let loose a bit, Candice Accola and Zach Roerig just want their characters to live to see next season and Ian Somerhalder wants Damon to go on the run with Elena, but Nina Dobrev just sounds ready for another kind of vacation.”

Usually, I wouldn’t post something this crap-looking, but it’s Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder!

And they’re holding hands and looking cute!

If they’re not together then I shall eat my hat - which might be a problem if they’re not, considering that I do not own a hat to speak of.

Look at this photo guys. Just look.

They’re all close and in love and you just know they’re going home together after this.. ;)

Also, it’s 6am and I can see and say what I like because it’s too early to be conscious, let alone sane.
/humph.
