Andreas Gefeller









Images by German photographer Andreas Gefeller.
German photographers always seem to approach their subject matter in such a different way than anyone else. Industrial-like, I suppose.
When I first saw these images, they instantly reminded me of Berndt and Hilla Becher's typography of German industrial architecture:

I guess I should mention that one year ago from today, I was on a train leaving to Montreal for the adventure of a lifetime.
At about this time, I was at the camp in Montreal, making friends and trying not to be lonely.
1 year! That seems so long ago, but I still remember that day, how I felt and all the amazingly awesome people I met.

milan mens fashion week

So I'm back from California. I hung out in LA, spent a day at Beverly Hills and walked around downtown Santa Barbara. There are 2 sides to California. There's the super glamourous, all-plastic, perma-tan side, where everyone looks fabulous, and then there's the laid-back hipster/surfer/vegan/hippie contingent. Both can be annoying in their own right. Although I enjoyed the beaches, walking along the pier and making friends with dudes who fished off it, I don't know if the coastline is enough of an incentive for me to go American. I think the maritime coasts of Canada might be more ideal.

I had an interview with H&M today. And so begins another cycle in the retail world. I was just called back for a second interview next week. They're kind of intense. Like super intense for being H&M. Must be a Swedish thing.

(509): My booty call said shes done doing the walk of shame. Wtf is that?
(541): It's what anyone that sleeps with you, specifically, does when they leave. Some do it even when they just think of you.

Oh goodness

Dear Maggie,

Good to know.

The next step is to contact your travel agent, especially someone that can give you a good deal.

Please find out the cost of a return flight that will take to Singapore first, with a layover there of two days, and then a connecting flight to Surabaya. Please explain to your travel agent that the itinerary must be round trip, including the Singapore-Surabaya portion.

I think it is best to avoid transit or going through Hong Kong since they have had cases of swine flu there.

For your layover in Singapore, we suggest the Grand Mercure Roxy Hotel. It is near the airport; they offer shuttle service to the city centre and also to the airport. It is a nice hotel and convenient, especially for the rraveler.

I believe that your travel agent will have suggestions and can get you agood package deal, airfare and hotel. For the connecting flight to Surabaya, there are many options: Garuda Indonesia, Silk Air Singapore, Jetstar Asia are some of the more popular carriers.

Please do not make any bookings at this time but send us the information as soon as it is available to you so that we can approve it. As per posting, we will be responsible for 50% of the cost of the airfare and accommodations in Singapore.

Regards,
Jacqueline Tjandrawidjaja

chyeahhhh

Dear Maggie,
We have received two references on your behalf but we have not heard from one of them, Marylene Plante. I think she could be busy or out of the country.
However, we do have the reference letter you provided. I do not think we need to wait longer for any other document to come. We believe that we have everything we need. Your references were very good and we hope you are still interested in the position.
Please e-mail at the earliest. Thank you.

Regards,

tattoo #2 is ruminating in my mind.
im just scared that ill turn into one of those people that have a gazillion small tattoos that really dont have any connection to one another that are sprinkled all over my body.
maybe it has something to do with my neurosis, but i like the idea of everything having a theme or being apart of something bigger and more... whole (?)
also i dont have a job which will (very soon) turn into i dont have any money.
obviously there are other things that my money should be going towards (saving up to move out comes to mind).
