D.M.V. stands for the “dynamic modus vivendi” – the “D” will change depending on the entry (i.e. dramatic, dull, dysfunctional) and “modus vivendi”, for you uncultured folk, is Latin for lifestyle. Confession: I really just wanted to use the Clueless reference (“Girlie, as far as you’re concerned, I am the messiah of the DMV.”). And so I spent hours, nay days trying to figure out what D.M.V. would be an acronym for. Apparently the Latin language invented that phrase specifically foreseeing my need for an “M” and “V”. I guess that’s why I really am a Messiah.
Anyway, this blog is my creative outlet and is going to be devoted to all things that I find interesting – mainly fashion, pop culture and the occasional blog re: politics and current events. You know, just to round things out. Even though I’m the Messiah, I’m also very receptive to others’ opinions and comments and I pretend to consider opposing arguments. Therefore, I welcome all contributions and suggestions.

Comment by messiah February 23, 2009 @ 7:23 pmI didn’t know what “modus vivendi” meant! Am I uncultured?
Comment by kwonsunil September 3, 2009 @ 10:09 pmhaha no you’re not. I was uncultured too – I knew I wanted the “MV” before I even knew that phrase existed. It was a mini miracle that it fit so well
