Flicker was great-- the usual mix of bad films, bad self-philosophy films, cool animations, fun comedies, and miss comedies. I think it's a good thing but my film didn't have any other film that night to compare to... it was... different. Not better, just... different.

Work is picking up like crazy. I need to hire an assistant for a week. And I need some people...

I've been pulling 12 hour days this entire week at work. Haven't left the office before 10 PM. Means I haven't been doing any fun things in my apartment like sanding my shelves before I put my records on them and mounting artwork.

And this coming weekend will be the 4th consecutive weekend I will be going to San Diego to help my friend with...

the home improvement chronicles continue. new hotel style towel rack and leveled out the medicine cabinet mirror (it was crooked when i moved in and annoyed me a lot). unfortunately, the ground isn't level either, so it makes the mirror seem slightly off still, but at least i can see more now--it was also too high and only went down to my chin. you know,...

Hearing about shit that other people go through helps fuel the fire for when I beat the shit out of anyone that I catch trying to eff me over.
That way I can say, "And this is for Yourname!" as I punch 'em senceless.

Wait! Can I still slap you?

I am superwoman.

I moved a piano. A couch. A dresser doubling as an entertainment center and the tv, amp, preamp, cd player, vcr, dvd player, turntable, that goes on it. I moved a dining table, a coffee table, a Golden Acrylics steel rack doubling as a CD rack. All by myself around my apartment... to move them away from the walls I'm painting, to...

nice Rhodes

hmm.....i should call you up next time i move. I'm usually the only one doing anything. superwoman would be a welcomed addition.

class load not too bad just have to put a lot of outside time in on stuff. I'm really just a slacker at heart. I hate having stuff to do. Nothing is where its at.

congrats on the pics

i slept thru the vice party and a never made it to a dirty shame.

but today. today i saw tsai ming-liang's Vive L'Amour.

i was in a rush after to get to my "job" -- i wanted to say gig but my friend pat hates when i refer to things i've been hired for as "gigs" -- on the westside (videotaping audience reactions).
i...

Death is a pretty amazing thing but so is life.

That movie is an experience to say the least.

Taiwanese Cinema is pretty unique



jjay:
its a pretty amazing place thats for sure. I was fortunate enough to been able to take a history class on it....a very rare opportunity especially here where U.S history is shoved down our throats.

eek! i moved. one block from where i lived before. it is taking forever. i have little help and too much stuff. but that is my fault, really. maybe i should throw out all my broken turntables.

i think i am going to some vice magazine party today but that's really too hip for my taste and i will probably just see A Dirty Shame...

Don't forget S89 needs to die too. Draft = bad.

I know of this thing... it is an elusive and fickle lover.

Where I live now, I have a parking spot, but I had to fight tooth and nail for it. Before I succeeded in getting a spot, I parked on the street, where my car was broken into, had all four tires slashed, and was towed.
Of the three, I think getting towed is by far the worst. First I thought someone had stolen my car, Then, while reporting the theft to the police, they tell me it was towed, and I owe them money for the parking ticket, Then I go to the place that towed my car and I owe the bastards DOUBLETIME (city law states the towing company can charge doubletime for the inconvieniance of having to do what the police want when they want it.) plus storage!

mad mad mad mad mad mad

I sooooooooooooooo understand moving for parking.

Yeah, so that last year went by quite roughly.

My last birthday was spent alone, save the first time I've read my writing in LA... and my friend who I hadn't seen in a year showed up right after my reading... we talked for hours and he drank too much and puked in my bathroom and I took care of him. Now we are the...

the last couple of weeks have been jammed with things things things.

i worked as stills photog for two russian features (directed by the same guy, both featuring michael madsen) and boy is that madsen fellow out-to-lunch. and he's one mean and dirty motherfucker too.

he gives off this badass persona but he nearly cried during one of the scenes when he started to remember...

It was my friend's 22nd birthday last night and we went to the 4100 bar -- none of us had ever been but we heard it had "asian decor" and we thought it could use some live asian decor--like us.

we're cheesy like that and birthday boy said oriental a lot the whole night and i couldn't stop laughing. i was a little annoyed at...

I'm a little behind. Okay, so on Friday I helped my friend Lex on his music video shoot for this band, Scatter the Ashes. I did production stills. Yay on-set photography.

I hadn't really heard of Scatter the Ashes (pretty melodramatic name) and I still haven't really heard any music from them up to this point but they were nice guys and the crew was...

I made ice cream with Young's Double Chocolate Stout. Mmm...beer ice cream.

And what a crazy Euro Cup this year! I say, the giants are on their way down. The big footballers of Europe are crumbling. In the meantime, Man Utd might bid for Wayne Rooney. Nuts.

I'm a bit torn between buying a new lens, getting two tattoos that I've been waiting on at...

my new watch came today. i'm excited because ever since i lost my last one, i keep looking at my empty wrist to check the time i can't tell.

yay! also i think it's annoying to have to dig out my cell phone to look at the time. not to mention kind of obnoxious.

the watch is a little big though, my hands are just...

i chose not to wear a watch. My time perception has become better. I also don't feel the pressure of time. I hate the feeling of hanging out with friends and knowing what time it is. Besides, if I realy have to know what time it is, there are lots of people with cool watches I can ask.
