L.A. Story

  • [Admiring a painting]

    • I like the relationships. I mean, each character has his own story. The puppy is a bit too much, but you have to over look things like that in these kinds of paintings. The way he’s *holding* her… it’s almost… filthy. I mean, he’s about to kiss her and she’s pulling away. The way the leg’s sort of smashed up against her… Phew… Look how he’s painted the blouse sort of translucent. You can just make out her breasts underneath and it’s sort of touching him about here. It’s really… pretty torrid, don’t you think? Then of course you have the onlookers peeking at them from behind the doorway like they’re all shocked. They wish. Yeah, I must admit, when I see a painting like this, I get emotionally… erect.

    Starbucks

    starbucks

    I like this quote:

    The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don’t know what the hell they’re doing or who on earth they are can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall. Decaf. Cappuccino.

    XD I just pulled that out of thin air XD

    Animal pajamas!

    There’s a friend of mine who used to wear  bear pajamas when he was eight years old. That’s one of the reasons why he likes Serial Experiments Lain. This is one of the alter-egos of the main character in her pajamas :

    bear pajamas!
    Oh, the nostalgia

    Doing some research, I found out that some people in Japan wear their pajamas in public. These people are referred to as ‘Kigurumin’.

    I don’t even wear pajamas to sleep! Though I’m considering to buy a cat pajamas, you know, just for fun n.n

    And now, the egotheque, august edition. This are my two favorite posts of the month:

    Suddenly I see ♪


    … That I’m damn depressed! I got so depressed today. Nothing’s exciting for me. I’m not even sure to add the ‘anymore’ to the previous sentence.

    I feel like no matter what I do, nothing’s gonna make me feel good. Like I have that “Can’t get no satisfaction syndrome” Leo Babauta talks about in his blog.

    Genial Post de Lunes /Amazing Monday Post

    Necesito conseguirme una mejor y más emocionante vida personal para que mis posts personales no sean tan aburridos XD

    Siempre escribo sobre cosas que quiero o debo hacer, no de lo que hago – bueno, para eso está twitter XD – o de lo que hice.

    Bueno, próximamente mejoraremos eso… creo XD

    Necesito retomar mi lista de cosas por hacer! Lo único que hice fue lavar ropa, empezar a leer el libro y empezar a buscar trabajo… Pensándolo bien, no va tan mal la lista. Estuve pensando en quitar de la lista eso de ‘crear algo todos los días’. Pero dije, quizá no me pongo toda crafty, pero sí estoy creando algo todos los días, I am already an artist. Que está creando una particularmente fea obra de arte XD.

    Hoy llegué a la brillante conclusión de que si no me dan ánimos de trabajar para conseguir mis metas o de seguir mis intereses – música, fotografía, etc. – es porque no cuido de mí misma. No me alimento bien, no duermo bien, no me veo bien. Esto de no tener ánimos lo saco a colación por el plan que teníamos mi novio y yo para ayer; ir a un concierto. Pero yo en verdad no tenía ánimos de ir *se sonroja*

    Bueno, al final no fuimos, pero no por mi falta de ánimos, sino porque la entrada era muy costosa =S.

    Y, bueno, sólo porque ya no sé qué más poner y para demostrar mi obsesión por las listas de cosas por hacer, aquí les dejo una foto – a falta de scanner – de una lista de cosas por hacer que hice hace más de un año. Pregúntenme cuál de esas cosas llevé a cabo.


    I need to get a better and more exciting personal life so my personal posts aren’t this boring XD
    I always write about things I want to do or should do, but not about what I’m doing – well, for that we have twitter XD – or what I have done.
    We’ll improve that soon … I think XD

    I need to resume my to do list! The only items I crossed off the list were ‘Do some laundry’, ‘Start reading again “Nunca renuncies a tus sueños”’ and also I started tying to get a job. On second thoughts, my list isn’t going that bad. I was thinking on taking off the list the item ‘create something every day’. But then I thought that maybe I’m not getting all crafty, but I AM creating something every day. I am already an artist. An artist that is creating a particularly ugly work of art XD
    Today I came to the brilliant conclusion that if I don’t feel like working on accomplishing my goals and following my interests it’s because I don’t take care of myself . I don’t eat healthy, I don’t get enough sleep, I don’t look good. I bring up this subject because of the plan my boyfriend and I had for yesterday; go to a concert. But I really didn’t feel like going *blushes*

    We ended up not going, not because of my lack of enthusiasm, but because the ticket was really expensive =S

    And only because I don’t know what else to talk about and to prove my obsession for to do lists and lists in general, here’s a picture –lacking a scanner – of a to do list that I made more than a year ago. Ask me which of those things I actually accomplished.
