trash.

the brooklyn garbage men must be on vacation this week. its been a week since they've been to our neighborhood and trash bags and junk have been piling up everywhere. and people wonder why brooklyn's dirty...

white stuff?

sooo new york is receiving it's first "big" snowstorm tonight. We'll see how many inches we actually get. it's been such a pathetic winter. so needless to say, i got a little excited and went out a took a couple pictures in my neighborhood.

where's winter?

i think 2007 is a little confused. it's january...and almost 70 degrees all weekend . what's going on? i live in new york because i like the change of season people. not a state where the temperature is the same year round. i miss snow. i want snow. i haven't been able to hear the crunching of the snow under my boots once this winter. this isn't even winter. well, i suppose i should enjoy it while it lasts. here's to winter...i guess...

what century is it again?

i am excited to announce that i am writing this post in my own apartment - with internet! it's been four months - 4 months i repeat - to get this internet up and running. in a very kind and loving manner, i want to simply express to everyone that verizon is a slow and incompetent company that does not know how to do their job. i can't tell you how many days i wasted on the phone with them. and how many days i was transferring to random departments that had nothing to do with my problem. it took them 2 months to send us our freakn modem - thankfully they didn't charge us for it. but apparently to actually configure the dsl in our apartment was nearly impossible. they told my roommates and i that it might not even be possible. ok - let me reiterate something. what century is it? do i not live in one the most flourishing city's in the united states of america? and yet it took them almost 4 months to configure a dial tone! i am not exaggerating people. i moved in, in august...it's december! enough ranting...i am very very thankful for joe in tech support who helped configure the whole thing (because of course the installation CD didn't work) once our modem finally arrive this week. i pray God brings him wonderful things in life and he wins the lottery. i've had fine service with verizon for my cell phone...but this? this is asinine. all i want to do is call the company and speak with someone who is intelligent, knows how to speak english, and do their job and help me to the fullest degree. is that too much to ask? so i caution you all i guess (even though i'm sure you all have internet already) from this very incompetent company.

on that note. please expect more fun-filled blogs with pictures alot more frequently.

have a great weekend everyone!

art and wonder.

i spent all day this past saturday at the chelsea art galleries with my friend collin, and need to convey how impressed i was with the work on display. if you're familiar with the world of chelsea art at all, you know it can be quite far from anything normal one would normally see at any other museum. not only was there a whole exhibition of andy warhol's early prints (sorry no pictures of those..) but also exhibits of ellsworth kelly and one of my personal favorites - frank stella. i thought i would share a few pictures so you can catch a glimpse of the same splendor i did this weekend.


the following prints i believe are white charcoal on black paper and probably one of the most stimulating things i've seen in a long time. the detail on these works are incredible and these photographs do not even come close. the beauty that they convey is unexplainable. i just love creation and the things unseen. the things that are so simply unnoticed or forgotten. i felt rather small after seeing these. and people think there isn't a God...

oh ellsworth!

these works by ellsworth kelly were absolutely beautiful. their shape, their color, how they were displayed - everything. there were a total of four works, one on each wall around the room. it's amazing how such an incredible experience this can be...

millions of mirrors.

are you ready?
