Pictures Of My Life part 1...

   

 

In the Pattisserie..

I've been eating out a lot lately...one of my newest found was this little pattisserie, their peach-like flavoured frozen yogurt is not really the best but i like their lasagna although the size is a little bit too small for me whose pretty much very hungry at the time.

And they have this menu of two tray with selections of mini cakes for tea party which i wanted so bad but there's only two of us and i don't think there's plenty room left on our stomach for those pretty mini cakes.

this lasagna look big cause i take it in a very close range.

DASH SNOW

Another young and talented artist died too soon.

For Dash Snow photography becomes a way of engaging with environment and memory. Each snapshot captures a place, time, and emotion, freeze-framing the individual components of everyday experience, mapping out the compilation of an identity. Using a Polaroid camera for its instantaneous results and association as keep-sakes, the familiar format of Snow’s photos replicates the sentiments of his images: cheap, disposable, and plebian mementos become humble evidence of discarded beauty.

Documenting his life through a lens, Snow’s photographs explore personal existence as a periphery to globalised culture. Presenting an unabridged account of his marginalised lifestyle, Snow’s often uncomfortable images paint an intimate portrait where topical issues such as sex, drugs, poverty, and anti-social behaviour are confronted from a frank position of personal participation. Translated through the generic quality of his medium, Snow’s photos convey the disoriented fragments of memory as voyeuristic observation, conceiving the experience of ‘self’ as a bi-product of mass media dissociation.

Picturing the underbelly of contemporary culture, Snow distances his images with cinematic veritas. Graffiti, ironically broken signage, seedy hotel sex romps, and instances of human despair don’t evoke empathy, but rather suggest a poetic affirmation of humanity and against-the-odds survivalism.

Almost Unreal

Today's been a mix of good and bad things.

I'm barely breathing to catch up with the way life turns.
In one day I've seen
two different sides of people.
two different kind of movie.
Two different stories about one silly rumour at the office.

Life is Fine

I went down to the river,

I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but couldn't, So I jumped in and sank.
I came up once and hollered!
I came up twice and cried!
If that water hadn't a-been so cold I might've sunk and died.
But it was Cold in that water! It was cold!

I took the elevator. Sixteen floors above the ground.
I thought about my baby And thought I would jump down.
I stood there and I hollered! I stood there and I cried!
If it hadn't a-been so high I might've jumped and died.
But it was High up there! It was high!
So since I'm still here livin', I guess I will live on.
I could've died for love-- But for livin' I was born
Though you may hear me holler,
And you may see me cry-- I'll be dogged, sweet baby,
If you gonna see me die.
Life is fine! Fine as wine! Life is fine!
(Langston Hughes)

unperfect day turns out perfect

i can't really think of myself as an easily happy person,
but today's been great.

The food, the movie, the picture, the atmosphere, everything is right on it's place.
