How cool would it be to learn how to do long exposure photography??
I would love to learn.
Tried to find an option on my digi cam last night, bit I've lost my manual for it so it's a bit tricky...

Caroline Gray

Went to party Saturday. James What played at The Paramount; music great, people superficial. So we left shortly after. Off to Tea Room (the new one). Another friend was playing; very good! Unfortunately place closed, so went to house. Then another house. Then Sunday-day-party but we buggered off home.... Slept all Sunday.


Met an American girl who turned out to be a great artist!
You can find here here at Saatchi - Caroline Gray.
She uses old snake skin on her paintings and wants to make a handbag out of human skin to make a statement! Super cool chick.

I'm in love.......

Did I mention?

T.Magic

I read about this guy who designes these amazing things - T.Magic.
You can find his blog here and the official website here.




His work is quite simple, but yet so powerful.

Gotta check it out!

We're going to a members-only club in Tottenham Court Road where we can watch the sunrise over London from the top floor.....





Our friend James What is playing.




And this is what I'm wearing!


With shiny tights and heels...

house hunting makes me go mad

Today I tempted myself with a bit of house hunting!
Although I don't know if it does me good or bad.....

Here are my two favourites which makes my heart beat a lot faster than normal!
An old shoe factory and a converted synagogue:





Shoe factory in Hackney






Synagogue in Whitechapel


Too bad they're both over 300,000 fuken quid.
Un-affordable living.
In my dreams.

stik




So this is STIK.
I got this little signed print from him on his last exhibition in Brick Lane.
Unfortunately I couldn't afford any of his bigger stuff, but luckily this was only £5!

Cans Festival





I love this video of the Cans Festival they had in Waterloo last year.
Especially the picture of the 'cleaner' at 3.13 minutes!

finally going


So a ticket was finally booked!
To France.

Or, we're flying in to Barcelona, renting a car, maybe a drive around Spain, and then cross the border to Perpignan where we are staying in a country house.

Niccce.


The idea of going somewhere closer than to Thailand was to save money, but renting a car is apparantly extremely expensive for some reason! The costs just adds up and up and up.... Rediculous really.

Anyway, right now I'm so desperate for a holiday that I almost don't give a damn how much I end up spending on this! But I promised Frenchie this vacation, so it's all on me.




I'm stressed this morning. Don't know why. I need to learn how to relax and stop going through past emotions in my head. They mess up my heart. I always thought I knew so well how to live in the 'now', but apparantly I need to practice.






On another note, I was at a good party this weekend. It ended at an afterparty at 'Ghost' in Farringdon. A very cool place.






Song of the day: Sneaker Pimps

open space

We took a walk yesterday, me and Frenchie, from Shepherds Bush all the way to Tottenham Court Road! It was so nice, hot and sunny; we walked barefoot through Hyde Park, and elbowed our way forward through Notting Hill.


And we bought 4 pairs of sunglasses each once we reached SoHo!




I'm in a very strange head space at the moment. I don't where it's going, and I don't know where I want to go. And I hate feeling like I'm wasting my time by doing things I don't like.





I'm bored.

recently...



There has been.........


  • Secret parties under bridges until early morning
  • Nasty bills

  • Travel plans that went to shit

  • Lots of loving

  • Cats with fleas in a flat which is never clean

  • Dreams about converting a warehouse
  • Dreams about running a gallery

It just gets frustrating..........

being me



I've been bad at writing lately.
But I have a good excuse...

- I'm in love !




How wonderful life can be.


Right now we're looking for a trip to some place exotic.
I wanted to go to Thailand, but seeing the monsoon period starts now, we better not.
So I've narrowed it down to India or Java in Indonesia.
hmm.........decisions......decisions.....
