mixed tapes, movies, music, laughing, bailey's, badmitton, breeze, driving across the country and going through a million national parks and Seeing Some of The Most Beautiful Landscapes I Have Ever Seen and feeling really free and happy because I was doing something with my life- even if it was just driving somewhere. Reading, food, thinking about learning about cooking, baking cookies, dabbling in art, pictures, photos, thinking, relaxing, spanish, kids in cowboy gear, thinking about moving/looking for an apartment on craigslist (only ones with pictures please), going to colombia(!?), my mom's 60th birthday party, my brother and sister, finding cheap tickets to Boston and/or Salt Lake City, pretending I'm Mexican, learning how to dance el duranguence/the robot (ask for explanation), getting to see mpls in a whole new light and...making new friends.

"Do not be critics, you people, I beg you. I was a critic and I wish I could
take it all back because it came from a smelly and ignorant place in me
and spoke with a voice that was all rage and envy. Do not dismiss a book
until you have written one, and do not dismiss a movie until you have
made one, and do not dismiss a person until you have met them. It is a
fuckload of work to be open-minded and generous and understanding and
forgiving and accepting, but, Christ, that is what matters. What matters is
saying yes."
-Dave Eggers, *The Harvard Advocate*
"My work operates precisely on the assumption that every claim to 'authentic' culture and lifestyle is illusionary." Michel Majerus
a good beat, a good message, a good doo-doo rhyme, old schoolish nostalgic shit, music that's got a good way of making me feel like i'm some place else, that makes me feel like dancing, that makes me feel like...i'm feeling something completely different than what i thought i was (does that make sense?).

"Jala una silla,sientate a un lado, aqui, donde pega el sol. Mira las plantas como reaniman la vista alrededor. Parece mentira, los pajaros vuelan hasta mi balcon. Mira a los ninos juegan con globos de cualquier color . Mira a la gente, compra helados de cualquier sabor. Parece mentira que haya tanta vida en este lugar, que felicidad! Parece mentira que entre tanta gente en esta ciudad no tenga a nadie con quien compartir la vista desde mi casa este sabado al mediodia"-Cafe Tacvba
"Si acaso vuelves otra vez
se, que si me vez tienes que llorar
al recordarte con dolor de alguien
que te amo con sinceridad.
Si solamente para ti
fui la diversion de tu vanidad
y ya cansado de sufrir me deje
arrastrar por la adversidad.
Me fui muy lejos para ver si acaso
me olvidava de lo mucho que te ame,
busque otros brazos para ve si acaso
me arrancaba de la sangre tu querer.
Pero cansado de buscar
donde refugiar todo mi sufrir
solo me queda un gran dolor
por tanto, tanto amor que yo te di..." - Vicente Fernandez
