One of my favorite movies is Mulholland Drive by David Lynch. Reasons, love the switching between dreams to reality but really I think the point Lynch is trying to make with his films is that dreams are realities and realities are dreams, no difference right? Cause what you’re thinking at night when you’re sleeping just affects your life when you’re awake. That’s why I also love Nightmare on Elm Street as well..I own the whole series, number 1 is my favorite though. Drinking tons of coffee to avoid sleep, yes, a familiar feeling.

But anyway, Lynch, loving metaphors and symbols and all, uses that Blue Box in Mulholland Drive to represent the switch from dreams to day, when she takes out that box in the Club Silencio scene. That blue box just represents the blue light between morning and day when the transition happens and I love how he created that box to represent this transition, he’s such an artist! Getting films made in Hollywood, so much disgusting behavior involved, selling out, compromised visions from money pollution, women being humiliated to the nines..I have so much respect for Lynch, favorite director of all time I think. I love how his stuff is non linear too, cuts to the chase, because linear storytelling is obviously staged. Black Swan by Aronofsky shows a similar struggle doesn’t it, but there was something pseudo-intellectual about the way her pain was shot. Black Swan and Mulholland Drive are really similar but I feel like Mulholland Drive was so ‘it’.

Anyway, this is my favorite time of day now, when the light is blue outside. I start off with cleaning up the kitchen, setting up my music playlist on my iphone, and figuring out what my hustle will be for the day.

Some fried foods and beer, and ..some friends. Pregaming. But lets take it vertical. Koreans are heavy drinkers, and they have these things called levels. 1st 2nd 3rd level. 1st could be dinner and drinks, and then 2nd can be going to a bar, and 3rd could be ending up back at someone’s house for more drinking, private house parties. Karoake, huge in Korea, this can be part of those levels too, depends. Kind of feel like this could be the same in all cultures, as worlds tend to be parallel. American youth seems to have this thing called pre-gaming, which is drinking before going out-out. First things first though, outfit priorities. Pink oxford, Luxirare hooded half sleeve jacket, Men’s theory trousers. Not really into accessories right now. I guess my earphones will suffice.

Wow I am being very good about answering all your questions no? Sitting down for a little break now. Just finished my 3rd espresso of the day. All this curiosity about knives..Is it this knife block below we’re talking about? Get it here.

Priorities: Getting some restaurant brioche loaves from Balthazar, and then doing a minimal french toast setup with 2 dipping sauces, no maple syrup… If you’ve been around the block with brioche, you’ll know that Balthazar’s really the only one worth eating.

Hey guys. I’m so over everything right now, really. Weather’s cold outside, making my way out of dream state at 4-5 am, I’m just craving warmth under the covers, and I’m this close to jetting down south for warmer climates. Why can’t spring come sooner? This blasé feeling is definitely going to influence the way I dress for spring. I’m craving strict uniforms and by strict, I mean really strict. I don’t want to think, already have my 2 acne jeans picked out, two mock neck shirts from Nike, and a classic oxford shirt. Sneakers: adidas and nike. Two pairs of heels. Ready to go. But I just needed one more thing. A sharp spring jacket. This I can’t buy, I have to design. What I want? It’s not out there yet. A jacket that cuts to the chase, no fussing around. When you know exactly what you need, you can afford to be concise.

My minimized wardrobe. I meant it when I said that I can’t be bothered with frivolous pieces here and there. I just need rules rules rules, at least for now. I am already starting to wear a uniform day to day.

Like to have my sunglasses on while I’m shooting! It protects my eyes… little behind the scenes peek here, to the right I have a stack of photography equipment (lights, batteries, lenses, films, etc).. New post coming soon! See you.

Pulled up some really old stuff! While making the switch from blogger to wordpress I let a lot of stuff go…Here is something I made for my dog inspired by the the look to the left… Who wore it better..?

Okay, now I have to answer more questions, first with all the curiosity on the Nikes, and now with the adidas. I give you my hand, and you want my arm. Well heck, take my body. Home now, finished work but still working.. e-mail comb, facebook pollution, you know the deal. No whiskey tonight though. Jesus.

First order of biz, adidas….Get em here.

2nd order of biz, got questions about the cuffs on the wallet necklaces. Yes they open up, there is a little switch on the bottom. Clip on and off.

3rd order of biz…Nikeez available here. I linked you to the leather ones, cause I think they will be better for you. My nylon ones got killed in the snow today! Feet freezing but I buffered with some of those tea bag thingies..feet warmers. If you don’t like white on black there are other options here. We good now? Cause I have to prep a new post, so much work work work. Let’s pull the plug for now.

Last night, mistakes! haha, morning, brushed off, and crystal. Got a girl on twitter asking me about my shoes, and girls in the comments asking as well. Gotta answer, so I did some googling for y’all. More info here.
