A.I.R
i took another quiz on blogthings.com on which element i am. Air, i'm always air.
but this was the best result explanation of it:
You are highly creative and often inspired. You love to be spontaneous and hate restrictions.
You have a yearning for travel and adventure. You want to have a wild and crazy life.
You actually feel a bit more balanced when there is structure and stability in your life, but you avoid it.

lomo lomo holga lomo
that right there is my new obsession. the holga camera. photography has been on my OH MY GOSH THIS IS AWESOME list for a long time, so i think it's something that i'm gonna stick with. whenever i go to urban outfitters to eye browse i always stop and look at their cameras, they were cheap and nifty. so i went on their website for more info and then went to google and voila i learn about lomography and the whole movement. it seems like my thing, though really i'm still learning all my isms. (but that topic is for a later date).
but yeah. i dunno, it's pretty much one of those things i'm excited about at the moment.
my favorite thing that i've sorta learned from the lomography website are the 10 golden rules.
- take your camera everywhere you go
- use it anytime--day & night
- lomography is not an interference in your life, but part of it
- try the shot from the hip
- approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible
- don't think (william firebrace)
- be fast
- you don't have know beforehand what you captured on film
- afterwards either
- don't worry about any rules.
so that's all for now. i guess. tomorrow (or later today) i'll talk about some music that i've been listening to.
peace folks :]

moma rainy friday
so we went to the MoMa (Museum of Modern Art) yesterday and it was pretty fantastic. it was crowded but i saw a lot of interesting pieces of work like they had this one performance piece where (i guess) people took turns staring at this lady. it was kinda awesome. the tim burton exhibit was going on too, but that's for another day.

shakespeare deep in love
we started watching Shakespeare in Love today in class. Oh my gosh, i laughed during it but that is (so far) the best crumby love movie i've seen. here's one of my favorite lines we've heard in the movie so far:
Viola De Lesseps: [to her Nurse] I will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all. No... not the artful postures of love, not playful and poetical games of love for the amusement of an evening, but love that... over-throws life. Unbiddable, ungovernable - like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love - like there has never been in a play.seriously that is beautiful & really really crumby. so if anybody hasn't seen the movie, go see it when you're in a mood to be in love.
peace & love folks

blind/watercolor love
so this is the first post even about love. but i'm taking a class about love in school right now. today we had a discussion that i was really interested about. it was about interracial couples and race in love in general. well we started about dating websites and if we had to check a box about ethnicity preference would we and all that juicy stuff. some people were like, well yeah.. and then others, like me, were like no i wouldn't choose any, or if i had to check a box i would check all the boxes.
i don't know the idea of race and love is something that will always be discussed, it's something that we cannot be blind to. and in a way it sucks but i'd rather be blind about it. i don't know if that sounds ignorant to some folks, but don't people always say that love is blind? then why on a dating site have the job to click a box of which potential suitors you'll be able to check out and what not.
i guess that what i have to say about the subject right now.
