"There's so much shit on the radio, I close my eyes to the music, Right now none of it turns me on"













Here's some Botticelli to you all! Look at "Pallas and the Centaur"! I've always been very interested in Italian Renaissance (it must be my fave historical period, along with the French Revolution), and Sandro Botticelli is one of my favourite artists of the time. Sorry for the crappy quality, but my scanner is not working -> these pics are just found from the internezzz. Click to enlarge, or just buy a great big book of his art. I wish I could just born again as Isabella d'Este...

Also, don't you think this young Josif Stalin is very handsome? He is, right? Nothing wrong with me, right?

Sorry for all this history talk, but it really really inspires me - and there's only 15 weeks till my final exam of history.
