Hi! This blog is just a way for me to ramble, complain, whine, etc. about the randomest things in life.
So, to all of you who want to have a better year than 2011 here are some tips.
- Sing in the shower more, no matter what your roommates think
- Talk to yourself, it’s a sign of genius.
- If you see a person you like or are interested in, talk to that motherfucker, regardless of what you think the…
I totally agree…if only I was a few years older, I would do everything on this list *wink wink*
A friend once told me that nowadays it’s sad that death is the only thing that truly brings people together. I can’t help but think he’s right.

It’s photos like these that inspire me to learn about photography and someday travel the world and take amazing photos and share them with everyone.
The Girl With the Drago Tattoo gives off a ripely kinky, menacing glow. It opens with psychedelic music-video credits, scored to Karen O’s caterwauling cover of Led Zeppelin’s ”Immigrant Song,” that set a mood of evil dipped in black rubber. That fanfare lets you know that the movie is going to have a sensuality and danger that the 2009 Swedish screen version, dutifully effective as it was, did not. Directed by the high-grunge master David Fincher (Zodiac, Se7en, The Social Network), the new Girl With the Dragon Tattoo sticks close to the spirit and most of the details of Stieg Larsson’s Swedish serial-killer novel, in which an officially disgraced left-wing journalist, Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig), is hired to investigate a homicide that has haunted an aristocratic family for 40 years. Larsson’s plot is nothing more (or less) than a clever conventional whodunit festooned with glimmers of depravity. Fincher, however, teases out the full mythological grandeur of the material. He’s not just a great director — he’s an artist with the eyes of a voyeur, and he has made The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo into an electrifying movie by turning the audience into addicts of the forbidden, looking for the sick and twisted things we can’t see.

So go right on ahead act like the spoiled fucking brat you are because sooner or later someone is gonna hand you your ass and when that happens don’t cry, whine, or complain about how the world is fucking unfair because now it’s your turn to put up with the shit that life throws at you.
London’s streets are full of symbols and, yes, I had a hard time to choose one of the photos I took during my first visit in UK’s capital, last summer (and, Great Lord, I admit: I’ve lost so many years before I discovered the city which actually defines freedom and liberty!). Finally, I decided not to contribute with The Tower or St Paul’s, nor with Big Ben or the double-deckers, neither other common images but to submit this photo of a typical Londoner doing his afternoon break with the newspaper under a tree in Hyde Park. It was an idyllic view. And then the dog came. Just amazing how this little creature explicitly posed - full of elegance but in a very possessive way: you can take a photo but he is still MY master! :)

I ask that when I die I could please come back as a dolphin…. Please! Battle scars would adorn my body like Polynesian Tattoos, I would get to live in Shark Bay, Western Australia and dine on my choice of the finest of the best table fish on earth. Mostly I could swim forever. I love to swim!

Camera Therapy: How to Help Kids Heal with Photography
Brian McCarty traveled to Jerusalem (the center of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) to teach kids how to express themselves with art and play therapy.
The kids draw pictures, and then recreate their scenes with toys, which they then photograph.
