ENG VS PAR 1:0
!!!!!!!!!
I'm sick with bronchitis so i stayed home all day, pigged out on crab cakes, and was going crazy being inside so mike and i went to barnes and noble and strand and later watched a movie. The movie ended at 2am. At 4 am we went to the new mac store and now I CANT WAIT FOR THE INTEL G5 TO COME OUT so i can buy it already. The quad is so fucking beautiful.
the apartment is still a mess and i have little energy to clean it but i really must because i can't keep living like this.
i bought a book yesterday that is going to change my life.
i've been looking all over for tim walkers issue of stern/spezial fotografie but it is no where to be found. WTF
and finally...
starting from today my life is going to change and this excites me more than the prospect of moving to germany. Because I was getting terribly bored being here in new york city. It is quite a dull place with only a few tolerable people and even less cool people. The architecture is boring and i dont want my special thing to be staten island or the empire state building. How boring. I realize I'm incredibly lucky to be here, doing what im doing, living where I'm living but like always I want more because I havent found what I really wanted to find here.
What I really don't like is that this place is overcrowded. its not very glamorous to me anymore. I like that its very much ecclectic here but its become too dark and too grungy for me. There is no culture. There is no culture in the sense that all the street art is gone, all the artists are hibernating or moving, the younger generation seems to be lacking in enthusiasm. All that is left are a few skateboarders, lots of cops, and the high class art scene...the kind I cant afford. Anais Nin said "we dont see things as they are, we see them as we are." which is probably true which means I need to do something with myself to change this negative new york. I thought my solution was to move but i really need to just change.
one thing that I like very much is that for a few days now, right outside my window a man practices trumpet. And while it sounds horrible, its really quite comforting in an odd way. like he is saying, "i feel comfortable practicing my shitty trumpet in front of all of you because in new york we are family" or something cheesy like that.
i saw the guy from boondock saints yesterday and i nearly died because i use to have the BIGGEST crush on him.
