lost in translation
i finally got a round to see the movie today and of course, it was a bit over hype for me to live up to my expectation. it was good but not great. visually delicious with some great moments but the story was too typical. anyway, while i am not chugging away at my single malt, i am analyzing the visual landscape to understand why i like it. most importantly to my enjoyment of the movie was the soundtrack against the strong visual dialogues. I am looking forward to the day when i can combine my love […]
simply brilliant
i’ve only two concerts so far this year but it’s all i need to see if it’s at the calibur of damien rice and sigur ros. i just find it so amazing when people go on stage and perform with the kind of passion that people would only reserve for great sex. they had the sweet combination of the sultry sexy female vocalist, the gorgeously sad violin, the whiny passionate male vocals that just came together like two bodies that melt together on a cold winter night. and they even covered a nina simone song! to be […]
pushing cheese
i did my first interior photo shoot today and although it was sorta boring, i found myself enjoying the boring process. after last week’s crazy wedding, i like boring shoots where i can actually have time to experiment. and so i played around a little bit with a new lens, a tilt shift type, that will invariably be my favorite for next foresesable future. i finally understood why large format photographers love their camera so much. being able to totally control your perspective with tilting and shifting is freaking cool as hell. anyway, the place i was […]
reflections about nothing
it’s been a year since i took broke away from the corporate system completely and life has come full circle. i find myself in a state of intimate turmoil, fiscal weakness and mental overload. the repetitive days seem deceptively simple enough. wake up. focus for 10 hours. loss focus for 3 hours. wash. document. sleep. it’s in a nutshell kinda of living. some days i rejoice in the simplicity of it all and other days, i wonder how long i can put up with this passive agressive intensity. funny enough, what i wrote down a year ago […]
she has left me again mix
I don’t think there’s closure on my side but at the same time, i just waiting to see what happens. part of me doesn’t want to deal with it because dealing with it doesn’t really get me anywhere. nevertheless, i have thought given thought on what is the future of the relationship. i think i am falling into the trap that i expect her to change otherwise I know that the relationship will have no future. And yet i would imagaine that she would expect the same of me, a transformation of sorts into a very different […]
the lamest conversation
a word of advice to myself, don’t ever talk about relationship stuff on email. serious conversation requires so much more observation and non verbal cues that in a meduim such as email and Instant messaging is lost. but the point of the lesson is if you want to be a chicken about communication, then use IM and email to say shit that lacks any emotional appeal. Just imagaine how easy it is to break up with someone when you just have to type like that you’re coding your website. Communication is a limited tool to begin with […]
the darkest hour
it’s the darkest hour of this long distince relationship. i guess i shouldn’t be surprise the relationship did a 180 within less than 2 weeks. from i can’t wait to get back into the states to my brother is going to pick my stuff in january. the funniest thing is that this all transpired through emails and IMs. she’s pull this string before but this time, it’s so much easier to just let it all go. she in her ‘you don’t support me enough and you’re shaping my opinion too much’ mode so it’s almost useless talking […]
