Went to some super exclusive douchey bar(the eldridge) tonight for a model party. Saw Donald Trump, the lead actor(chuck) in the tv show "Chuck," tons of hot models, and talked to Wayne from "models.com"
Pretty sweet night considering I dont like the bar thing that much.

I want to be this close to you every single day for as many days as things stay this way. And even a million miles away, which in reality is only 147, you're still the most important part of my sunrise and sunset. From the time I call and wake you up in the morning to the time you call and say goodnight, I never stop thinking about you, and I don't care what anyone has to say about it... I'm so lucky. I love you, Kevin.

jamie fell off his bike and his face basically took the grunt of it. >.< he had to get stitches and probably won't be able to work for a while. really sucks.
i recently got into a fight with a customer at work and ended up leaving 40 minutes into my shift. whatever.
i really need a new job. i need something else because this just isn't working out in the least bit.

awesome.
P.S. So is Sheena a lesbian or what? Because that's the only thing I can think of that would make her go "from one extreme to the other". Unless she's... not really Asian? Or... is quitting ANTM and becoming a nun?
Best nun ever.
EDIT: Oh, I guess it WOULD make more sense if Sheena was standing up for Isis or something. But wouldn't she make an awesome nun?

Австралиец Билл Хенсон (Bill Henson) делает то, чего делать, наверное, не следует — фотографирует людей в оперном театре. В рамках своего проекта в 1990-91 годах, Билл Хенсон сделал серию портретов людей, пришедших — добровольно или, в случае с детьми, под давлением родителей — послушать арии в Парижскую оперу.

[04 Sep 2008|08:51pm] |
русский живописец, график, театральный художник. Учился в Петербургской АХ (1883-1887) и в Париже (с 1893). Входил в объединение «Мир искусства». В книжной графике (журналы «Мир искусства», «Золотое руно», «Аполлон») и станковой живописи («Древний ужас», 1908, Русский музей, Ленинград) испытал сильное влияние стиля «модерн». С 1909 жил главным образом в Париже. Один из ведущих декораторов «Русских сезонов за границей» и антрепризы С. П. Дягилева (балеты: «Клеопатра», 1909; «Жар-птица», 1910; «Нарцисс», 1911; «Дафнис и Хлоя», 1912, и др.). Наиболее значительные графические работы: иллюстрации к «Носу» Н.В. Гоголя и «Снежной маске» А.А. Блока, цикл рисунков «Гримасы города», графические портреты Андрея Белого, К.А. Сомова, И.И. Левитана. В театральных работах стремился, прежде всего, передать «дух эпохи», нередко склоняясь к его мистическому пониманию. Особенно привлекали Древняя Греция эпохи архаики и Восток. Стилизуя мотивы античного искусства и экзотические восточные одежды, создавал утонченно-декоративные, часто фантастические костюмы, являвшиеся одним из важнейших элементов красочного театрального зрелища. В 1910-1920-х работал в театрах Парижа, Лондона, Нью-Йорка, Брюсселя, Рима.

| Broken Toyland |
[04 Sep 2008|08:17pm] |
Американский художник Broken Toyland родился и вырос в Лос-Анджелесе, Калифорния. В 1996 году он переехал в Польшу, через 2,5 года вернулся в США. Сейчас Broken Toyland проживают с семьей в южной Калифорнии. Broken Toyland - это розовый панк и готический дух одновременно. Источником вдохновения для художника служат игрушки, старые фотографии, а также мультфильмы и комиксы из эпохи 1920 - 1950 годов. Но произведения Broken Toyland не для детей. Его творчество - это безумный мир, где нет надежды, где уживаются кролик и кровавые убийства, алкоголь и наркотики, одиночество и страх.

4 steps to getting organized 
Super-organized people are innately fussy. It’s annoying.
The anaphylactic, anal-retentive manner in which they respond to clutter calls Sigmund Freud to mind. Freud attached this kind of compulsive tidiness to having been potty-trained by an impatient and intolerant parent. Whether he was right or not is impossible to discern without bias once you’ve seen such people in action and made the association. Chiefly troubling is the notion that organized people believe they have the power to veto a fundamental law of nature; they think that by putting everything in the right spot once, it is somehow beyond continental drift, or universal expansion. Yet the second law of thermodynamics says that life moves toward disorder, not toward order -- nobody has ever spilled milk only to watch it return to its original carton. In short, it is next to impossible to stay organized and still do things other than stay organized. Getting organized -- well, that’s different. We can all set aside an hour now and then and get organized, and for that we present the following traditional four-step program. It will not keep you organized without added attention -- nothing can achieve that. But every month or so, after everything around you has started to slouch, return to these reliable four steps to getting organized. Step 1
Take inventory
Give yourself a good overview of just how disorganized things have become by gathering together all of the component parts. If you're organizing your desk, get everything off the desktop, out of the drawers and onto the floor. If it’s a closet, empty it all out onto the floor. If it’s a schedule, clear it off. Whatever it is, clean the slate because we’re starting from scratch. Use a pen and paper or open a file on the computer, and take inventory of each of those component parts you've just removed. Don’t concern yourself with categorizing things right now and don’t worry about deciding what to throw away; just create the damn inventory. step 2
Eliminate the unnecessary
Using the inventory list you just compiled, you’ll want to thin it out a bit before any actual reorganization begins -- otherwise you’re just wasting time. To do so effectively, you’ll need to establish some criteria regarding what is and what isn’t necessary for this particular space or system to function efficiently. For the pack rats of the world, this is a very difficult step. The idea of throwing anything away is hard to swallow, and they can generally manufacture an excuse to keep virtually everything. Whether or not it’s possible to be both a pack rat and organized is beyond the scope of this piece; instead let’s try to determine some initial, workable criteria. For a desk, throw away anything you haven’t accessed or used in a month, and you can’t foresee needing it for another month. The same goes in a closet; are there clothes you don’t ever see yourself wearing again, even as the seasons change? Dump them. This applies to items of clothing that are visibly falling to pieces as well.
step 3
Establish a home for everythingYou have eliminated or thrown away the unnecessary; what you’re left with are the components that will represent the newly organized space. The issue then becomes in what fashion you will group these components together prior to going back into the system. The method you choose will, to some degree, dictate just how long you’re able to stay organized this time around. This applies to a weekly schedule as well. For example, group together the various duties by room, the various errands by location, and so on.
Begin by grouping like things together so that when you assign a new home for them, they will all fit nicely and neatly. If you’ve ever seen a U.S. television show on the Style Channel called Clean House, you know that this is where they generally introduce plastic bins, often with lots of enthusiasm. These bins are not going to save the world, but if you think they can help you, go buy a small stack.
step 4Re-assemble groups in a logical sequenceYou’re almost done -- there's just one final step left. Here, you’ll need to restore all those components back into the system. Before doing so, establish the most effective method, one that’s not only easy for you to remember but also one that makes good sense: alphabetically, big to small, by priority -- whichever suits you, so that you remain this organized a week or a month from now. At your desk, this might mean alphabetizing in a clockwise fashion, beginning on your left-hand side. If you are organizing a weekly schedule, the same thing applies. For example, schedule all of your outside errands for a certain time on a certain day. Do the same for assigning a day to do housework.
This last step is where you truly try to stamp some order on a disorderly world, order that can last a decent amount of time before the inevitable drift sets in.
