Hello, 2010!

okay, after month's of neglecting my blog i think its time to come back. I guess its one of my faux-resolutions of the year. There's too many things that happened, too many shows that were attended on 2009 and i feel really bummed because of the fact that I never posted anything about it. Well, it's never too late, I guess... So i'll be working on that during the week.

So its the end of January, this is my first post for 2010 and I've lacked of night life action. Wayo and myself went out a couple of weeks ago to downtown Tijuana and we had the most wicked time. I love creating new memories that remind me of old memories (does that make sense?), on that same evening and that same location I stumbled upon some old friends, which was amazing, nothing makes me happier, i think; just seeing people you really care for when you least expect bumping into them. Just thinking about it makes me happy. (The pictures from above are from INDIE GO! located in "El Callejon de la Sexta"... full of hipsters, loved the moss+doherty art.)

On January 2nd Ayerim, Kenia, Denisse and yours truly went to Disneyland, I think it had been like 4 years since I last went. We had a blast, we finished riding all the games at noon (because we got there really early and there were no lines), we got soaked, rode the brown mountain like a gazillion times and took a loooot of pictures. I love getting along splendidly and becoming friends with my friend's - friends. Kenia and Denisse call me Dad now too... good times.

"The Office" has becomed one of my favorite shows, i cant get enough, thank you netflix for letting me watch from season 1 to season 5 in the comfort of my own home. I was so frustrated that they didn't have season 6 available that i watched episode per episode in the internet, which is a pain in the ass, really. But i'm finally up to date now. (haha i know, i know...)

Musically, i'm researching new bands, I'm STILL trying to get off the TWILIGHT: New Moon soundtrack (dont judge, i dont like Twilight one bit, but...) this record is really fucking fantastic.

I also started to listen to Jeff Buckley this year, and he just makes my skin curl. I dont think there's much i can say about him that hasn't already been addressed; his voice is magical and his lyrics are no exception. He's with me 5 days a week from 9 am to 5:30 pm. And seriously every time i take a second and just do nothing but listen to whatever song's playing i think to myself.. how can a person feel THAT MUCH?! It's amazing, just amazing. I'm glad he existed.

And as some of my closest friends already know, I have an obsession, Devendra Banhart. I just love every part of his being, he really has inspired me. Thats all i can say about him. D, i love you. (listen to Megapuss. It's what you want to call word play + melodies = songs)
And as for Coachella, i cannot wait. I hope that nothing gets in the way of this trip.

In other news, I'm moving (again) soon! To a place (i hope) that is near downtown. I'm specially psyched because my best friend/faux sister, Ayerim is moving in with me, so i can only imagine all the shit that we'll do. It'll be sick.

All I can say is that, as always, I'm hopeful for the rest of the year, for the new people that will come into my life, all the changes, the people who are and still will be in my life, for trips to Europe (fingerscrossed), for music festivals, for inspiration, for art, for love, new projects and last, but not least i seriously look forward to every single challenge for there are always better times and lessons learned after they've passed. That's never bad.

Right now, I'm visiting my mum.
This is it thus far.

xx.
