Welcome. :]
If you dont know where you're going, any road will take you there.

I'm afraid I can't explain myself, you see, because I'm not myself,you see
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would

-So today i came across a short film (around 6minutes) which i very much fell inlove with.  and its set in london (my favorite place in the world) but it was pretty sentimental, and quite touching. I recomend it, for those who wear their heart on their sleeves. Heres the dialogue that follows:

And I wanna play hide and seek, give you my clothes, tell you I love your shoes, sit on the steps when you take a bath, and massage your neck, and kiss your face, and hold your hand and go for a walk. Not mind when you eat my food, and meet you at Rudy's and talk about the day. Talk about your day and laugh at your paranoia. Give you tapes you don't listen to, watch great films... watch terrible films. And tell you about the TV program I saw the night before, and not laugh at your jokes. Want you in the morning, but let you sleep for awhile. Tell you how much I love your eyes, your lips, your neck. Sit on the steps smoking 'til your neighbors come home. Sit on the steps smoking 'til you come home. And worry when you're late, and be amazed when you're early. I'd give you sunflowers and go to your party and dance. Be sorry when I'm wrong and happy when you forgive me. Look at your photo's and wish I'd known you forever. Hear your voice in my ear, feel your skin on my skin. And get scared when you're angry. I tell you you're gorgeous. And hug you when you're anxious and hold you when you're hurt and want you when I smell you and offend you when I touch you and whimper when I'm next to you, and whimper when I'm not. Smother you in the night and get cold when you take the blanket and hot when you don't. Melt when you smile, dissolve when you laugh. But not understand how you think I'm rejecting you when I'm not rejecting you and wonder how you could think I'd ever reject you. And wonder who you are. But I accept you anyway. And tell you about the tree angel and enchanted forest boy who flew across the ocean because he loved you. I'd buy you presents you don't want and take them away again and ask you to marry me and you say no again but keep on asking because though you think I don't mean it but I always have from the first time I asked you. I wander the city thinking, but I'm empty without you, but I want what you want and think I'm losing myself.
But I'll tell you the worst me and try and give you the best of me because you don't deserve any less. Answer your questions when I'd rather not. And tell you the truth when I really don't want to. And try to be honest because I knew you prefer it. And think it's all over but hang on for just ten more minutes before you throw me out of your life, forget who I am. And let me try and get closer you.

... And somehow communicate some of the over-whelming, undying, overpowering, unconditional, all-encompassing, heart-enriching, mind-expanding, ongoing, never-ending love I have for you.

This is for the times you've made me laugh and smile. This is for the times you've told me everythings gonna be alright. This is for the times that we've just stared at a starry sky, wondering what would happen next. This is for all the times that you've made me feel so loved. This is for sounding like a hopeless cliche-but i hope it means something to you.

" You know when you're inlove when you cant

 fall asleep because reality, is finally better then your dreams" 

-Dr. Seuss

"To say the truth, love and reason hold little company, nowadays" -William Shakespeare.

Time is gonna take my mind
and carry it far away where I can fly
The depth of life will dim the temptation to live for you
If I were to be alone silence would rock my tears
'cause it's all about love and I know better
How life is a waving feather

So I put my arms around you around you
And I know that I'll be leaving soon

My eyes are on you they're on you
And you see that I can't stop shaking
No, I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes
'cause what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath
Oh could burst it if it were a bubble
And I'd better dream if I have to struggle

So I put my arms around you around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me

I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No need for anything but music
Music's the reason why I know time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists

So I put my arms around you around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
So I put my arms around you around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (more known for his pen name : Lewis Carroll) (27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898) - famous for his Alice in Wonderland novels. He also is a photographer.
He deeply inspires many of todays contemporary artist with his, mystical, hallucination-like ideas.
I love reading Alice in Wonderland, its like my escape for the real world.
Lewis Carroll is one of my sources for inspiration. Talking flowers, hookah smoking catapillar, endless ideas come out of his work. Here are some of my favorite quotes:
[x] "Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle."
[x]'The time has come,' the walrus said, 'to talk of many things: of shoes and ships - and sealing wax - of cabbages and kings.'
[x]"The rule is, jam tomorrow and jam yesterday - but never jam today."
[x] "Take care of the sense and the sounds will take care of themselves"
[x]"She generally gave herself very good advice, (though she very seldom followed it)."
[x] Oh, 'tis love, 'tis love that makes the world go round.
[x]'But I don't want to go among mad people,' said Alice. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the cat. 'We're all mad here.'

David Lachappelle is one of my tip top favorite photographers. He is probobly the best definition to what kind of art i like. I like to call this... Avant-garde.
Avant-garde
- adjective
1.) pushing the boundaries of whats norm.
He's taken pictures for magazines like vogue, worked with super stars (album covers etc.), various ads for companys (like skyy vodka) he also sometimes directs video clips. In his photography he involves nudity and a twist of pornography, which in my own opinion is why his work is so amusing. The contrasting vibrant colours the edgyness of it all. i love it. i love it all. Again i must limit myself this time i choose randomly because...their just all so good.
warning: some of these pictures are quite shocking, not for those under the age 13.

in⋅sip⋅id

–adjective

1.	without distinctive, interesting, or stimulating qualities; vapid: an insipid personality.

2.	without sufficient taste to be pleasing, as food or drink; bland: a rather insipid soup.

I was away on a science barge trip, floating down the Chao Phraya River. It was an experience, especially taking 3 minute max. showers. i had alot of time to take pictures. :] these are just 2 pictures, more will be posted up later for the benefit of cyberspace.
