Hwayoil Hangeul!

Okay, so it's Wednesday and I forgot on Tuesday to post the Hwayoil Hangeul word of the day, so I am going to do it today on Sooyoil (Wednesday). I learned this word from a kpop song of the same name. It's from the group f(x).

Hangul Tuesday!

Okay, the HOBO has been on hiatus, but I got an idea. I am learning Korean, so why not augment that learning, by putting up stuff to aid myself and others? So I will be doing "Hwayoil Hangul".

Hwayoil means Tuesday, and Hangul means Korean (characters). If anyone sees a mistake, or has any tips or suggestions it is all welcome. I am learning. I didn't just start but I am bulking up and more serious about it now.

In my picture "Hangul" is actually "Hangeul". They are interchangeable romanizations but the "eu" is the correct translation of the characters. It's coming, next Hwayoil!!

I have a workshop in Baltimore coming up...

Some original poetry from the HOBO

On Oct 21 I wrote these poems:


UNTITLED:
In the dark dwells
the husky musky smells
sprinkled with the glimmer
of the night sky
illuminating the shapes
as they writhe and sigh
moan and cry
in a bliss
be it real
or contrived they feel, so alive.

BY Lenore Johnson



UNTITLED:
Sent into a despair.
Can I stand what
I cannot declare?
Remove me
don't pursue me
Send me to a place
of neither hurt
nor care.
Here.
I just won't fair.

by Lenore Johnson


JOSEPH:
Those sad sullen eyes
grow wicked
when surprised
because they are
eerily compromised.
your long dark lashes
and deep dark skin
is there sincerity
in your smirk or grin?
What is going on within?
Is it selfishness
or sin
or perhaps
something more akin
to the turmoil
within?

by Lenore Johnson

Express Sidewalk Runway

Last Saturday Express held an event before it's runway show a 9pm. This event, Express Sidewalk Runway was trying to break the Guinness World Record for the longest runway show. Pulling people from the street in Times Square it allowed people to be a "Model for a Minute". They also advertised prior on blogs and in magazines to help accomplish this task. Seeing that the previous record was made last year in Paris and it was only a mere 521, surely an attempt held in New York City's Times Square would be able to defeat that number and it did by double. Each walker had to be no more than 30 seconds apart with no breaks, else the number would start over. It was to be fro around 9am to 6pm but ended up being around 10am to 2pm. What fun!

Last Saturday, at the 136th Preakness Angelissima Cosmeticos debuted in the US. It is from Mexico and is really big there and I heard in parts of South America. You won't find these products in stores they only will be sold by representatives in a similar fashion to Avon.They carry a wide range of products including makeup (I like the lip gloss in clear), nail polish, skin products, hair products,deodorant, supplements, etc. So keep your eye out for Angelissima, you heard it hear first from the Platinum Hobo!

Platinum Hobo- Frivolity is Necessity!

Nice nail tricks...

Okay so these photos aren't great but you get the idea. This houndstooth design called "Check it Out" is a Sally Hansen Salon Effects design they have lots of other designs like leopard print, flowers, plain colors and glitter among others. You peel of the polish like a sticker and adhere it to your nail, for me it lasted about a week before it chipped. I tried out using them on just my thumb nails and then I used the Revlon scented nail enamel in "Not So Blueberry" on the rest of my nails.The Revlon polish's scent last for about 4 days for me. It was fun to try and my boyfriend liked the way my hands smelled, it was cool for amusement. The shade is sort of shimmery. Why not try it out?

Thumbs up.

UPDATE: Use all of your SalonEffects polish once you open it because it loses its stickiness after a while and will not adhere afterward.
