The Part at the End of the Week

Helloooooooo Saturday! Also known as photo-dump day, if you're me and you put it off every week. I really need to stop doing this. Here we gooooooo!

June 8, 2013. Stayed the night at Brandy's so we could go up to the Bridge to Nowhere again... I did that hike twice in two weeks! Oh it was so much fun. We definitely had a great time, and Brandy jumped off the boulder! That pool is deep enough to jump into, and she was all nervous about it, but then she finally did it and it was great! I have a pretty hilarious quick-shutter sequence of her thinking about jumping and then getting ready and then, JUMPING! It was very cool ^_^

June 9, 2013. Because I was making pasta. If I'm not careful, this blog is gonna turn into a food blog. >.< Haha. And also, because a wise man once told me that bow ties are cool. Turns out he was very right. Doesn't hurt that they're delicious too. Nom.

June 10, 2013. E. Writing away.

June 11, 2013. T-chow, after finishing her final final as a UCLA student! Congrats Chow-Baby, you've got a degree! Lookit you, finishing in four years, when they said it couldn't be done. So proud of you ^_^ And so proud that you know the first thing you do after you finish is party like it's going out of style! Thanks for inviting me along. This was, indeed, the prequel to a very entertaining night.

June 12, 2013. E and texting the boy. We keep having really interesting discussions about men and boys and all sorts of fun things because of this silly OkCupid thing.

June 13, 2013. Night shot! We were both curled up in bed, but E was texting her fam (I think), and it just lit her and the wall up so well ... I tried to capture that, but it didn't really work. Still kinda a fun picture at least though.

June 14, 2013. Apparently I wasn't the only one with a weird week, so Caitl decided to go dancing and invited me along and we went out with a bunch of animators! Very fun. Meerkat Friend is making faces. It was pretty hilarious, all in all, actually. Basically, it was the epilogue to a very strange week, and then the prelude to a pretty awesome night!

June 15, 2013. We went to LACMA today! E, and the OkCupid man, and some Disney folks, and I went to the Kubrick exhibit, which was very interesting and fun. Really neat to see some of the costumes and design work for Kubrick's films. BUT! this is actually outside on the grounds of LACMA, and it's this giant boulder thing that they ... split in two? And then brought to LA and bolted over this walkway, so you can walk under this giant boulder? Yeah ... as Film School Friend says: "LOOK! ART! I dun get it." But, it is kinda cool, in that you're under this giant boulder thing. It's a little trippy to think about; maybe it's supposed to be a commentary on how people have been shaping our world, versus how it used to be that something that massive and heavy used to shape us. But now, we have the power and technology to bend it to our will? Yeah. I'm just gonna go with that. ART! ^_^

Anyways, that was the week in photos, but there's one thing that I didn't around to photographing before I passed it on the FSF... THE NEW GOO GOO DOLLS ALBUM CAME OUT THIS WEEK! Oh it's beautiful! It's like an eleven-song love letter to the perfect girl. It makes me so happy when I listen to it. I can't say it's my favorite over Dizzy Up the Girl, but it does a damn good job of being a beautiful, complete, and focused album. Never hurts that Johnny Rzeznik's voice is like caramelized gold. I cannot WAIT for July 17th. Let's go Goo Goo Dolls!!

And here's a quote to round out the post, before E and I go to see Man of Steel!

"You know I love the girl
Who said that I could change the world
If only I was brave enough
To live the life in front of me"
-- "Slow it Down", Magnetic, the Goo Goo Dolls.

I could probably talk for hours and hours about how much hope this quote gives me, but I won't. Maybe another time. I just love this album so much. EVERYONE GO LISTEN TO IT!!

And with that, good night!
