Too much love will kill you

What's your 30 day challenge?

I like to browse through presentations that people make on TED Talks. The other day I ran into Matt Cutts' presentation. I've heard this theory before yet still found the presentation fresh & funny and above all motivating.

In a nutshell, it takes about 30 days to develop a habit or to get rid of one, depending to the situation. So when you feel your life is dull or stuck in a routine give those things you always wanted to do but never had the chance a shot.

So what big or small, crazy or sustainable or all together idea will you try for the next 30 days?

Lanterns

There's something romantic and magic about lanterns...

Thanks Delikatessen & We heat it for the great pics.

Time is of essence

Check out this really cool tune & video by Cold Mailman.

Inspiration of the day

I've just discovered Agnes Obel's amazing voice and decided to share a wonderful song & its lyrics with you.

What is wrong at the end of the day

What is really wrong no one dares to say

You know you're wrong when there's only one right

but what is wrong when right is out of sight

Right rode away long ago

Before rescuing wrong from below

I might be mistaken I know

But hey we need to be somewhat 

Foolish, feeble-minded, wrong and senseless

Right rode off long ago, 

There's nothing nothing more you need to know

There's nothing more you need to show

Let us disagree, cause wrong was made for you to be

What is false when we can't hear no more

And there is nothing to cover for

What is wrong in this old wasted game

May right and wrong be one and the same

Right rode away long ago

Before rescuing wrong from below

I might be mistaken I know

But hey we need to be somewhat

Foolish, feeble-minded, wrong and senseless

Right rode off long ago,

There's nothing more you need to know

There's nothing more you need to show

Let us disagree, cause wrong was made for you to be

Cum ar fi...

Apasa-l, apasa-l!

Valentin Ruhry a avut ideea geniala de a pune 5000 de intrerupatoare portocalii si le-a transformat intr-o "panza" goala pe care poti scrie mesaje. Imaginati-va posibilitatile :)

Proiectul se numeste "Unititled (Hello World)" si este expus in cadrul Forumului Cultural Austriac (Austrian Cultrual Forum) din NYC. Asa ca daca sunteti prin New York vara asta go see it si sa-mi povestiti si mie cum e sa te joci la toate butoanele alea. :)

Windows on the world

What's your window like?

What's your current read?

One of my New Year's resolutions was to read more. So at the beginning of the year I made a beautiful handwritten list of 100 book titles that I was planning to read. Of course that project didn't go as planned...

What changed? Well for a fact the number of books on my list. Somehow for each book I've read so far I've added other 8 or 10. So now, 6 months into the project, the list has 210 titles and I've only read 15 of them. But that doesn't kill my buzz. :) If nothing else it just sparks up my interest.

Nevertheless the other day I stumbled onto the coolest site ever! It's called What should I read next.  Basically for those of you who lack inspiration in what book to pick up next or who are simply hunting down a good book to read, the site searches according to your favorite reads and authors and suggests similar books. So next time you ask yourself "What Should I Read Next?" just click on the link :)

Si a fost Bon Jovi la Bucuresti...

Aseara am fost la concertul Bon Jovi din Bucuresti. A meritat 100% asteptarea, caldura, inghesuiala si banii. 55.000 oameni au avut parte de un show incredibil si 3 ore de cantat live. Jos palaria! Este un sentiment minunat sa fii inconjurat de o multime care canta alaturi de tine cu aceeasi pasiune...

Torturi + pictura = Van Gogh

Cine e de parere ca facutul prajiturilor si al torturilor nu este o arta se insala amarnic!

Cred ca Van Gogh ar crapa de ciuda daca ar vedea tortul din imaginea de mai jos...

Totusi trebuie admirata perseverenta cofetarului respectiv. As fi curioasa sa aflu ce gust are tortul - van Gogh cu aroma de lamaie sau fructe de padure? Voi ce parere aveti?  :)
