gimme

i want these

[ EDIT ]
hmm. these weren't the shoes that i originally posted up, but they're pretty fly too

street scene

i'll be here on sunday.

its my first year going cus for some reason i never liked the festival. maybe its the name, but whatever. you cant deny a good lineup. especially if it headlines the killers AND brand new. yayyy!



UPDATE:
simian mobile disco: dope, but you could only dance for so long on dirt and sawdust before your cant see or breathe

too short: a time killer turned in to one of my most memorable shows. what a funny guy.

brand new: amazing! although i preferred the crowd, venue, and general vibe/atmosphere at their glass house show, their set here was much better. who the hell thinks of screaming in their guitar?? still confuses me of how it works, but the shit sounds craaazy.

arctic monkeys: very, very nice live. it sucks, but their cd sounds like you're listening to one song on repeat the whole time, but they really deliver each song nicely at a live show

the killers: i was told previous to coming here that they put on an EPIC show. that word carries so much weight and expectations, but i am so glad to say that they were not hyped up AT ALL. although that brandon guy is one cocky mother, he honestly has a right to be.

excuse my lack of words for better descriptions, but im sleepy.
goodnight.

amazing

this chick is IIIINSAAAANE



she's an incredibly dope dancer (and my new found inspiration to become a better dancer), but her music choice is what puts her over the top for me. i love dancing hip hop, but dancing hip hop to shit like no doubt and yeah yeah yeahs is just ridiculous! it's the perfect merge of both my favorite worlds.

mariel martin of funkanometry san francisco. youtube, myspace, recognize, respect.. cus she is goooood.

hello stranger

daaaamn its been a long time.

but the break was well worth it, cus im glad to say that i am OFFICIALLY done with my 3rd year of college! after takin a full course load over summer, i finally get to enjoy the few weeks left of it.

id update with all the shit that went down durin the time i was gone, but its 4:52am and im finally dead tired.

but before i leave...


look familiar??

yea..


maybe im just too pop-culturalized, but i came across the former in my art history class and the first thing i thought of was the BP rolling stones cover. after relentlessly trying to figure out if this issue's photographer david lachapelle was inspired by cindy sherman's work, i came out with nothing but the fact that miss BP "didnt want to be buttoned up." if only we knew.

btw, on a not so random note, if it werent for me getting a D in accounting and not qualifying for the business program, id never find my way to art history, which i love love love so much.

its funny how things work out.
