i adore my father
i adore my Father








isnt it just great:
when God gives (")precious moments(") when you fall in love with everything beautiful.


{i love to play with words. }

more lookatbook:

MAC: And this will be the official start (glasses clink).
RORY: It makes sense, you know, it's the starting point.
OLI: The agreed starting point, the water between the two cities.
MAC: It's two places. It's Brooklyn and it's Belfast and it's...
RORY: It's begin. I didn't take anything more than that, you know.

MAC: Next.

MAC: The first one for each one of us is: how do you respond? Is there a theme we're trying to work towards here? And so I think each of the first ones are really...
OLI: Testing the water.

MAC: That's funny that you had an immediate response, then spent four days doing something that you covered up.
RORY: Yeah, exactly. And then just changed it at the last minute and boom, did it, you know. Another immediate response. And the answer is: I want cake.

OLI: If you picture that as an entirely white piece of paper just asking 'what do you want?,' he left me that question. What do I want? I'm ready to move, was what I wanted. At that time it was the sense of itchy feet, itchy feet, itchy feet, sense of something was about to happen, something was about to change. This piece is about traveling, it's about moving. May I point out that this piece has the distinction of being finished in Pat's Bar.

DUKE: Should I start rambling about this one here? I just- I don't like getting taped, man. It bugs me out. So start rambling on about this one... I was trying to respond to the past three. This one is something that my dad's always said to me...
MAC: Which one?
OLI: Just don't get caught on the dance floor?
RORY: Just don't get caught on the dance floor after the music stops. Because let's be honest. It is the worst.
DUKE: And then that sort of brought up the whole idea of using a plan, versus not using any plan at all. There are no plans in life, so the best plan is always no plan and, uh... I just- I don't like getting taped.

RORY: Hold on, hold on. Before you start, I recognize this guy and it's busting me. Who is he?

ok you know what. just read it all. and join my obsession.

fireflies - amanda falk

A cool summer night was spent watching the fireflies
dancing in the light of the moon
who would have guessed that what we thought was real
was so fragile and ended so soon
i miss what we had together
promised each other forever
was it a long time ago
i dont even know
i barely recognize the places that we used to go
ive lost track of time
seems like just yesterday
but you're slipping away
you're slipping away

i reminisced
i recollected all the thoughts of you and placed them in a box under my bed
nothing i can do and nohting anyone can say
can replace the memories in my head
you're a vision
that wont go away
why wont you stay
why wont you stay
it was a long time ago
i dont even know
i dont recognize the places that we used to go
ive lost track of time
it seems like just yesterday
but you're slipping away
oh you're slipping away

was it a long time ago
i dont even know
i cant recognize the places that we used to go
i lost track of time
it seems like just yesterday
but you're slipping away
oh you're slipping away
oh you're slipping away

a cool summer night was spent watching the fireflies
dance in the light of the moon

thoughts from this week:

i had an amazing week. doesnt that sound a little out of place and off centre? it does to me considering ive been so worried/busy (they go hand in hand, ugh) with school this week, and thats why. now erase those two sentences and start from the amazing week. i cant help but love to wake up and go to school. when i go to school, all i have to do is schoolwork and friends. personally: friends is the highlight. and i pray its the same for everyone.

dont you just love it when you look at someone. and you know they're thinking the same thing? apparently i have a facial expression: "i know something that you dont and im about to tell you". just ask kathleen. wow: i gotta give a list:

things im loving:

christmas trees
snow men
skating
sledding

things im missing:

unicycling
swimming
lakes
green trees

more loving:

connections

friends, i havent told you this lately. but i love you. a lot. and i appreciate you.

this is getting to be so simple. i love it just because i dont care what i sound like. and its just flowing in a bunch of sentences all together.

now im adding colour. cause im missing out on it.

this week was amazing. this week was amazing. i think im going crazy just in time for christmas. hm.

"o christmas tree. oh christmas tree. how loveeely are you branches."

frank owen gehry - born february 28, 1929.

1. "he is an architect of immense gifts who dances on the line separating architecture from art but who manages never to let himself fall."
2. "i approach each building as a sculptural object, a spatial container, a space with light and air, a response to context and appropriateness of feeling and spirit."
3. "professes to be unsure of what is ugly and what is beautiful. it is irrelevant."
4. "at the point where architecture and sculpture meet in anxious and uneasy confrontation."

tarajoy: "________"

look a book --

MAC: You only respond to your interpretation of the piece. We didn't call each other, we didn't ask what we were doing while we were doing it. It's not even a dialogue, because when you’re in a dialogue, you have the opportunity to explain yourself.
