OMFG MTV VMA



Last night, the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards rocked my world. Here are a couple of reasons why.



Creativity of Location

The Paramount Lot (Arlene's old office?) served as a dynamic stage to many performances, which made even boring performances look fun.



The Redeem Team

Yes it's nice that Britney won something, but three times including Video of the Year?… Continue

A Little Sappy But Oh So Sweet: An Old Music Video, First Day of My Life by Bright Eyes

Song has been added to the music player.



What I love most about this video is how it doesn't seem staged at all.



Lyrics:

This is the first day of my life

I swear I was born right in the doorway

I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed

They're spreading blankets on the beach



Yours is the first face that I saw

I think I was blind before I met you

Now I don’t know where I am

I don’t know where I’ve… Continue

My Experience at the SF MOMA - A Refreshingly Interesting Museum

I like to frequent museums on occasion, but I usually find myself getting bored after the first twenty minutes upon arrival. That's why I was pleasantly surprised by the SF MOMA.

The SF MOMA is currently showcasing the work of Frida Kahlo, which runs through September 28th. There is something so real and… Continue

Haven't Been to the LACMA Recently? Go to See Some Warhol, Lichtenstein and Koons Art at the BCAM.

As I get older, I've started to notice that I've gained a great appreciation for things like art, wine, and classical music. Frankly, MTV seems to always disappoint me (what kind of Britney showing was that last night?!), I'd rather watch the newest show on Bravo (thanks sis for the heads up on Rachel Zoe's new show) or check out a festival or art… Continue

Well, Schultz...This Actually Sounds Like a Cool Idea...The Good Sheet Available on Thursday

You all know that I'm skeptical of Starbucks. I've got to give it them, however, on a few fronts. They're always trying to change things up...introduce a new drink, test out some new food items (side note: that oatmeal ain't so perfect)...and I love getting my NY Times there every morning.



This coming Thursday Starbucks is going to be giving away a… Continue

My Virgin America Experience - Fly With Style, Comfort, and Entertainment

One of my favorite places to be in the world is in an airplane. I revel in excitement as I embark on a new adventure and enjoy being comfortable on the way back home from a tiresome trip. This is why I really appreciate a good airline.



Virgin America makes flying fun again in a time when airlines always seem to be cutting costs and making us pay for it… Continue

Changing the Way We Understand the World, Again!: Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers, Coming Nov 18th

I'm a huge fan of one Mr. Malcolm Gladwell. Somewhere in my house I have three copies of The Tipping Point and one hardcover copy of Blink. What I love most about this author is that he dives into the psychology of how trends start in a way that's on one hand obvious but on the other hand completely enlightening. In The Tipping Point he… Continue

Saturday Night Fever



Jay Alice and I super sad about losing in poker. haha



I was lucky enough to be invited to hang out with the superest coolest people on Saturday night, and we had a blast. I hadn't been to a shooting range in quite a while, so that was really fun. I had no idea what kind of arsenal Sam had! That rifle was intense! Next we went to this soul food place for dinner. THE FOOD WAS SOOOOOOO GOOD. After that we hung out and played poker.



The night started out with… Continue

Trading a Red Paper Clip for a Three Bedroom House. The Ultimate Blogger/Craigslister.



This is probably one of the most resouceful and unusual stories I've ever come across. In July of 2005, Kyle MacDonald started out in his quest to trade a giant red paper clip into a house. Sounds crazy? It absolutely is. But he was successful in doing it by trading for bigger and better items each time on Craigslist. How many trades did it take? Only 14 trades and he is now living in a three bedroom house in Canada. The scary thing is that it… Continue

And You Thought Painting Took a Long Time? Try Growing Your Art.

I love art and I love food. There's no better way to enjoy both than to grow food that turns into art. Each year the residents of Inakadate, Japan work together to plant their crops so they'll grow in patterns visible only from above. They do this by planting different varieties of rice, and as the harvest matures, the leaves fill in their colors and the end results are larger than life paintings.…

I Want to be Friends with Lily Allen, and I Want it NOW



I love everything about Lily Allen. I love her adorable face, I love her adorable music, and I love her adorable fucked-up-ness.



Here she is co-presenting some catfight, I mean, award with Sir Elton John at the GQ Man of the Year Awards in association with Elton's AIDS foundation. Meowwwwww. Why, oh why, can't we have awards ceremonies like this in the US. That there is one way to up your ratings, OSCARS!
