We live for the moments where time seems to stand still, yet I find myself stuck in this habitual cycle of trying to pass all of the time away… Right now Sigur Ros is playing on my pandora, I’m halfway through a bowl of mac n cheese, everyone in my family is well enough for me right now… because they’re alive.. I don’t want anything to change. I don’t want to...

I woke up today, with too much to carry on my own again. You’d think by now I’d know how to properly prepare for these things- auditions, i mean. Somehow the threshold of my sanity level peaks at this time each year. Usually, I tread the waters of misfortune pretty well, only letting myself crack when necessary, marinating in it until there is hope in sight and then using that light...

Jenny: [Seeing Caroline in the restroom] Ugh, slut. Caroline Wexler: What did you call me? Jenny: I think I just called you a slut, slut. Caroline Wexler: Why? Jenny: Because everyone knows that you’ve banged, like, forty different guys since you came here. Caroline Wexler: Really? Forty? [pause to look in mirror] Caroline Wexler: Okay, let’s just say that I have banged forty...
Still Water.
The story of a hundred average sized fish in a broken fountain.
A healthy person is a happy person. Generally speaking, a half finished cigarette on the ground was probably put out by a person who is either too busy to finish the remaining amount, or it’s their way of “cutting back,” in which case they are still able to walk away feeling somewhat accomplished for having the...

“Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke
“For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror which we are barely able to endure, and it amazes us so, because it serenely disdains to destroy us.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke, Duino Elegies

Aubade Boy
leave the skin from the
willows tears baby
they’ll decay and then maybe
sink into the soil
Winter is coming to
redeem the mourning
of our fall and our autumn
tomorrow is calling us…
oh but I am no mistress to
your midnight addiction
when the sun hits your skin
your heart will awake
awake, awake, awaken
your consciense
remember the daylight
my sweet little aubade boy

Sidewalls- The introduction to this movie was brilliant, it was a series of simple shots mixed with some intricate architecture and the dialogue (en espanol) was narrated from two perspectives, in fact thats the way the whole movie is laid out. This is the dialogue, following by a couple of pictures that essentially describe the movie.

“All wisdom ends in paradox.” ― Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides
“It seems to me that almost all our sadnesses are moments of tension, which we feel as paralysis because we no longer hear our astonished emotions living. Because we are alone with the unfamiliar presence that has entered us; because everything we trust and are used to is for a moment taken away from us; because we stand in the midst of a transition where we cannot remain standing. That is...

There is a similarity between photographs and memory, both give off the illusion that time, relation, and the essence of something was- at a certain point, unchanging. The latin word for solid is solidus, a combination of the words salvus and sollus, meaning ‘safe’ and ‘entire’. If Solidus associates the concept of completion with absolute contentment, then turning a...

Hot. Hot. Heat.
I am at a loss as to which comes first, do we succumb to intolerance or must the temperature peak before- out of defense, we pull away? Is it weak, or is it noble… is it heroic to counter the motionlessness and counter it with movement. Is it sudden if it happens at all? Wouldn’t everything be sudden if it’s measured by the instance before, during, and instantly after? Abrupt....

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?

Embody The Mind
They say smell can evoke memory, while images recollect the lost files of moments stored deep within our own minds. Instances of doubt, loneliness, and uncertainty are the loudest, unless of course the symphonic silence of peace is able to counter the misfortunate nature of the human race. I believe it was Rilke that said, “Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human...

Recently, I was driving around with a friend of mine when he introduced me to a Cuban band called The Buena Vista Social Club. I’ve never really showed interest for my Latin roots, but something about this song “Chan Chan” just captivated me. As a musician I listened, and as a student in the world of music I finally heard. I heard a visual, and the visual was something like the...
Stranger than Acquaintance
I’ve been siting in a coffee shop called Pavement, full of just an infinite amount of people from all over the world just HERE in this same location in Boston. The woman to my left was on her computer, the girl to my left reading a book and taking notes. The couple behind me spoke in wonderful French accents, going in and out of broken English and their native tongue. I was reading when this...
