Magnifique!



Paris Je T'aime is a movie everyone should see. It's deeply complex visual interpretation of love breaks down relationships just perfectly. I could watch the movie for days.

My favorite scene is that when the Mr. Mime is searching for someone to love,and instead finds himself in jail. The most unlikely place to find a woman; however, as life can often find love in the most unlikely of times, the mime finds his love. The next scene, about 4:47 in the clip below, is to me one of the most romantic scenes. The angled camera view of the two 'driving' around the Eiffel Tower with quirky happy music is simply brilliant

Today I made my way through Harvard Square, encouraging book stores, cafes', and whatever else I stumbled upon to convert to using canteens. This is one of my favorite parts of Boston. It hold's an old aesthetic appeal much of Boston has lost, and not to mention the girls are amazingly beautiful. I promise I'll follow up with my favorite places to check out in that area. For now I must sleep. BC High will be seeing my beautiful face in the morning to install a Pura Vida machine.

Rob a bank, steal a car, run away

Did you ever wonder why your cat or dog always kills animals and brings them to the center of your house. A friend came up with the theory that they are grateful for you providing them with food and that it's their duty when they can to provide food for the family. - Just a side note.

The independent visual arts company CANADA has recently grabbed my attention. Colors, innovative scenes, and lots of boobs...lot's of boobs. Something similar to Alexander Jordosky back in the 70's but mixed with modern technology.

Here's a video they made for Two Door Cinema Club: What you know

Another for the Scissor Sisters: Invisible Light

Obscure

Today is one of those days when you think about the things you could have done and presumably become saddened by the fact you've missed so many opportunities but simultaneously you realize everything you've done is perfect and things are right where you need them.

Classes, work, rugby starting up, and the other laundry list of things I've had going on, have all come to a halt as 10:00pm this evening. Spring Break has commenced and this means a few things. Sushi night at Tsangs (probably by myself the way I like it), adventures through Boston with a new playlist and a book(maybe I'll finish one of the 50 I've started and haven't finished? who knows) finally spend some quality time with sis and the fam. Times racing and sometimes we've got to slow it down and appreciate what's around. Cheesy sure, but it's true.

Few weeks ago Sam McGowen and I finally set up the hand rail in rt53 and took some video of it.Watch below on vimeo



While on vimeo I suggest checking out a few cool things.



First a really sort of obscure video of Japan. I'm not entirely sure if this video should scare me or intrigue me. I guess both?





The next two videos are published by a group who makes some of my favorite works. CANADA is their production title. Mostly random colorful images whose symbolizm I've yet to dipict but I'm sure theres something meaning full behind the work. They've done quite a few music videos one of my favorite is above, Two Door Cinema Club: What You Know, which is a fantastic song.
