This is the world. This is my mind. These are my words.

The band, now with more protest: Gay Pride Parade 2009 - Seattle


MUSIC MONDAY: Fuck You

Lily Allen - Fuck You

I keep meaning to…

I find myself planing to do things. Great things, fun things.. meaningful things. But i also keep realizing that those things remain un-finished, un-said, un-started. Today i will do great things. Today i will say meaningful words. Today i will begin something grand. Well actually, maybe i’ll wait until tomorrow.

my shoes and the ground


MUSIC MONDAY: Cheap and Cheerful

The Kills - Cheap and Cheerful

American Spirit, Paper Princesses, and Dr. Seuss: Fremont Solstice Parade





This was my first time at the Solstice Parade. I was told about the naked bikers… i thought i understood, but as it turns out i was not prepared for the number of penises flapping in the wind. I got a ton of photos of the parade but not very many good ones of the naked painted bikers.

MUSIC MONDAY: Oh My God.

Ida Maria - Oh My God

The end of my life in film

Seattle International Film Festival 2009 came to an end today. I had a wonderful time volunteering and meeting new people. I wanted to see a ton of films, but sadly life kind of gets in the way of movie watching. With volunteering, normal work, and social obligations i only managed to see 13 feature films, and 47 shorts.

Things that make me happy: A random list.

The feel of water on my finger tips.
The gust of wind that arrives in a subway station before the train.
Thunderstorms.
Unexpected hugs.
Swinging.
Boarding an airplane.
Staying up late and sleeping in.
Making snow angels.
The smell of mint.
