feliz día de san valentín.




These lovely pics are my Valentine's day gift to you.
Credit goes to Lina Scheynius, a photographer that I discovered last year.
I love her work.
If I were ever to learn photography, I think my style would be somewhat similar to hers.

Disfrútalo!

another time, another place.

Just wanted you to know that I hope our paths cross again one day. Nothing more, nothing less.

Oh, and thanks for reminding me that KOL actuals merits a listen. 'Only By The Night' defined January for me; 'I Want You' being one of the standout tracks.
---

Don't you just love secret message blog entries obviously not directed at you? Enjoy the KOL - a great song for capping the week off.
hehe ;)
Happy Friday the 13th!

single on v-day? solution: autoamor.

---
Another gem from the front page of Yahoo! en Español.
---

Pay special attention to the suggestions made at the end of the blog, especially:

"Por cada recuerdo bueno, prende una vela, por cada dolor ya superado prende una vela y asimila la lección aprendida. Con la luz de las velas, simbólicamente, honras tu vida y toda tu historia."

y esto:

"Brinda con champaña porque estás llena de amor y alegría para regalar a tus seres queridos, en este momento presente."

Thank you, Yahoo! en Español, for attempting to make me feel better about being single and for encouraging me to love myself. Your tips are simply and unequivocally priceless, as always.

caffeine is not my drug of choice.



DJ Koze - I Want to Sleep

Last week I posted 'Minimal,' as remixed by DJ Koze. This week it's Koze at it all on his own. This piece is mega chill and great background music as you just get started on all that crap you avoided doing this weekend. Coffee anyone?

And so... I think I'm about to establish a weekly tradition. Every Sunday night/Monday morning, I will leave a song for your listening pleasure. Get excited about yet another Monday! Music always helps... music makes the world go round :)

lighten up.... or light up?


To brighten up my blog after that last, slightly depressing entry, I want to present you with this: a quirky insight into my adolescence and a smoking hot pic of Russell.

A tidbit of meaningless information - I am a person of stages. One of these was a nearly unhealthy obsession with Russell Crowe. It lasted all of about 2 years while I was in middle school. My parents actually took me to see Russell play with his band, 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, at Stubbs here in Austin one summer. I think Gladiator drew me in, and from there I proceeded to blindly appreciate any and all of Russell's projects. 30 Odd Foot of Grunts didn't merit a second listen, but I wanted to believe it did. Oh Russell. I really haven't had any other major celebrity crushes; I think it's kind of pointless and a waste of time. Thank god I got over that one.

Bored and don't feel like prepping for my Spanish composition tomorrow, hence the pointless blogging.

buenas noches :)

sexy, sultry tunes.



Matias Aguayo - Minimal (DJ Koze remix)
"This track is pure sex." - fittingly put by a commentator on youtube.
The original version is actually better, but I can't seem to find it.

Enjoy. Just what you needed at 1 a.m. to start your Monday off right.
