I FORGOT: My 10 things

March 14, 2009

APPLE HQ:

My laptop. Guardian of my ideas, contacts, music, messages, and memories. The best investment I’ve ever made. The only piece of equipment that I’ve ever been attached to all my life. last thing I use before going to bed and the first thing I check when I wake it. I use it for work and recreational purpose. It’s a love hate relationship. I hate being on it for hours but I love the creative freedom it gives me (art and music wise). I hate and love how easy it makes life.

Toque:

Who knew that a black piece of fabric can bring so much joy to a person. It keeps me warm in the winter, and keeps my messy hair hidden. Makes sure I don’t get a ear infection when i walk outside with wet hair, and gives me more time to sleep in because I don’t have to “do” my hair. It goes well with what I wear and if I’m to hot I just take my toque off.

Glasses:

Old vintage glasses. I got these glasses when I was in Paris at the vintage market. They remind me of my travel and the people I met. They are the most perfect glasses for me. When I was young I got hit in the eye with a boomerang (yes a boomerang). This causes my left eye to be extra sensitive to light (sunny days). These glasses let me just flip the shades down when I’m outside, and flip them back up when I go indoors.They are old and have a story to them.

Guitar:

My old guitar. I never got good at it. Well pro at it. I wrote many songs on it when I was in high school. Now I barely touch it because of design. It still represents my first love, which is music. But now my musical taste has changed and I do more with Ableton Live then on my guitar. When I’m bored I still take my guitar out and play for a bit. It is a great stress reliever and another great creative outlet.

Abraham Lincoln:

This Abraham Lincoln sculpture belonged to my grandpa. When I was young and used to visit him at his house I would always look up at this black sculpture of a man sitting on this big chair (Just like my grandpa) and assumed that it was a sculpture of him. As I grew older and taller I was able to actually get close enough to the sculpture to see that it was in fact Abraham Lincoln. When I grandpa passes away I asked my grandmother for the sculpture and she of course let me have it.

Books:

I have a love hate relationship with books. When I am told to read a book, I rarely do. I like to read for myself and on subjects that I am interested in. I enjoy art & design books, but also english literature. To me there are another source of inspiration.

Wine:

Red Wine. It’s better then tea. it’s relaxing and  it’s suppose to be real healthy to have a glass everyday, but the problem is you just can’t have one glass. Scientist are creating a pill with the nutrients of red wine, and they say it’s suppose to extend your life expectancy to 10 years. Oh well, it’s still a good chill out drink.

Camera:

The photograph making machine. Who doesn’t like taking pictures? especially of your friends when they pass out, or when they are doing something embarrassing. Photography is just another form of art that I dabble in (not enough to even consider myself a photographer). My favorite camera would have to be the Pin hole camera. The pin whole camera is great because you can make it out of any box and any size. For now i just use my Rebel XTI. My 50 mm lens is what I am shooting with now.

Jeans:

Dress up, dress down meh.
