sunday

what a great weekend.
(un)fortunately i have an interview tomorrow morning which i must stay up all night preparing for. but, i'm going to home sweet home (a spot on chrystie st) for a sick lineup instead. a decision i will regret in three months when i'm facedown in a gutter.

50 cent is the future

50 cent keeps a close eye on what he puts into his body: no alcohol, lots of vitaminwater, and the occasional bullet. in 2004 he obtained a minority equity stake in energy brands, inc., aka glaceau, in return for his representation of vitaminwater and related products. when coca-cola announced its $4.1B acquisition of glaceau in q3 of this year, 50 netted $100M from the deal alone.

the deathly hallows

bitches

what is intimacy? is it a feeling or a situation? i guess that depends on whether only one person in a scenario enjoys it. in the great maelstrom of life a person looks for someone he can share secrets with. deep secrets, not "i tripped today and i felt so stupid" but deep dark haunting secrets he can't tell his parents or childhood friends or perhaps even his brother. could intimacy ever be uneven and one-sided with a special person? when one person truly and genuinely believed that real intimacy existed, and the other didn't? probably.

a girl i used to see, helga, believe it or not, buzzed her hair. now she looks like a half-asian demi moore from g.i. jane. luckily for her (and my respect for her) she has very feminine features so there aren't the awkard problems of androgyny.
still... what the fuck.

tony bennett - plenty of money and you

"it's the root of all evil
of strife and upheaval
but i'm certain honey
that life would be sunny
with plenty of money... and you"

malouda

the city is best during the summer. i have been roaming around manhattan for the last month or so with very few responsibilities. the best part has got to be the conversations. i am having so many amazing conversations with brilliant people at fantastic rooftop bars with scintillating views. i wish i remembered more of them.
