weekend

current selection | rinocerose – mental mental dub

its already monday? damn…weekend was a little too short. this was my relaxation weekend. no strenuous anything, except for mebbe popcorn-eating. grab food-place in mouth-chew. i met up with fish on saturday in jersey city. we opted to hang out at mitsuwa (aka yaohans) up in edgewater since i hadnt been there in a while. fish had never been, so he was down with it. i picked up a masamune shirow art book from kinokuniya, and then we headed over to the cafeteria to grab some din. we headed down to the edgewater cinema afterwards to catch a 9:45 showing of identity. i dont feel like writing some lengthy elucidation of it, so ill jus say that it was a damn good thriller with a crazy plot twist.

sunday rolls around and i decide to hole up in bed til noon. after some deliberation about the pros and cons of the world outside my bed, i then decide to go back to bed til 1. at 1 i get up again and decided id check out the cherry blossom festival with marisol and paulie. (it was brought up the nite b4) we meet up at 2:30 and start making our way over to brooklyn. the traffic was pretty crap, so we dont actually arrive at the botanical gardens til 4. by then the gardens were packed with ppl. it was nice tho regardless…since how often do u get to see white ppl in yukatas? alot of the cherry blossoms hadnt blossomed yet, but the ones that did were pretty nice. everybody and their sister seemed to have their cameras out too…since what better way to say ur an artist than with an slr in one hand? me included, of course. after some aimless wandering, we sprawled ourselves on the lawn and watched the grass disappear and magically reappear in marisols hair. around this time, i get a call from my friend jane saying she was coming into the city. woo! so after we head back to manhattan, me and marisol meet up with my friend jane. we head to cho dang gol in k-town for some tofu loving. mebbe a little too much tofu loving…ooochies. marisol heads home after din, and me and jane wander around times square. she gets in some shopping at sephoras, and i get a sampling of 5+ perfumes up and down my arms. wait…left elbow was not utilized. i send her off to grand central afterwards and then crawl home. i was hoping that was jus the saturday. shit…nope.

cant find a picture!
