18th August 2007

listening to: dj krush & toshinori kondo - ki-oku - 10. ko-ku
reading: kahlil gibran - the prophet

did a lot of stuff yesterday suprisingly. even waking up close to 12, me and Rog went to scoop Meredith and then headed over to the Legion of Honor. it's a sweet museum, with a bunch of chill artists, like picasso, boucher, monet, lot's of rodin, van gogh, watteau. and it's in lincoln park so you walk out of seeing beautiful works of art and then get to see the beautiful landscape.

there was a bum sleeping on the front lawn of the legion of honor. i guess even hobos like art

after we got some food at this place called the beach chalet restaurant. they are their own brewery as well so it was nice to have some microbrew with food.

they served their bavarian hefeweizen with lemon though.. to each their own i suppose.

went to this huge record store on haight called amoeba. got a bunch of cds.. maybe too many. and rog got jipped. being a new/used/record store apparently you might buy common's new cd and get a daddy yankee cd... returning that reggaeton trash today. not to say reggaeton is trash.. but daddy yankee? list;

dj krush & toshinori kondo - ki-oku
dj krush - stepping stones: the self-remixed best (2 cds)
dj krush - milight
dj krush - meiso
dj krush - code4109
dj krush - the message at the depth
dj krush - oumupo6
dj krush - kakusei
lee 'scratch' perry - on the wire
charles mingus - mingus, mingus, mingus
thelonious monk - genius of modern music, vol. 2

so i think i made out pretty well. i figured pi|2ating dj krush for so long i should actually support him because i actually respect him as a musician. after amoeba we went in to a store, big giant robot, which is full of asian anime/cartoon/joke stuff. they also had some chill graffiti books that i liked to check out. after that we met some of roger and merediths friends for "dinner" at this chill chinese spot yet wah. carrie, jason, byron, aaron, aaron's gf, mike - aaron's dad, and ..gary? brad? i can't remember his name right now but i'm sure i'll see him again some time this weekend. after yet wah we just came home and crashed..jpurple.

read..

.kahlil gibran. he's probably the smartest dude out there, or was.
here's an excerpt from his book The Prophet :

"And the weaver said, Speak to us of Clothes.
And he answered:
Your clothes conceal much of your beauty, yet they hide not the unbeautiful.
And though you seek in garments the freedom of privacy you may find in them a harness and chain.
Would that you could meet the sun and the wind with more of your skin and less of your raiment,
For the breath of life is in the sunlight and the hand of life is in the wind."

i'm going on vacation

i'm going on vacation.
san francisco the 16th,
home the 20th,
off to Nova Scotia with Dave Chow the 21st.
if anyone wants anything,
go to hell on your own vacation.




btw. i'm a bitter 21-year old man.
