STUFF YOU FIND...

In New York you find all kinds of things.

It's not the clubs and rooftop bars and the shopping that i love about New York. I just love to walk around and take pictures of all the crazy people and the crazy shit you see in the streets.(ah yeah and the food, i love the food)

Go to some flea markets(this one is at the Brooklyn Flea market). I thought it was funny, "Bush Family Values" next to a skull+crossbones. Nice!!

"Hail Piggy!" or sumthing! I just found it funny what some people put in front of their restaurants. People seem to be obsessed with animals in uniform or clothes or whatever. Lucky this one isn't holding a bunch of sausages as they sometimes do..

And my favourite flea market find this year.. What are these?! Little fuck dolls or what? My opinion is still swaying between hilariously cute and kinda creepy! Btw, their pants were already pulled down. Great selling point, i get it!

I ♥ QUEENS

Last year when i went to Queens i totally didn't like it. Just got off at a random stop and it obviously wasn't the right one.

So, this year we tried again..

And we ended up at Flushing Meadows Corona Park.

It was fucking awesome!! I totally loved it!

You get to see all these remnants and ruins from the 1939-40 and 1964-65 New York World's Fairs. It's just totally amazing and space age.

Some space age observation towers.

This is pretty awesome! Time capsules!

"Buried alongside the 1938 capsule, this container holds an additional 50,000 microfilm pages, tranquilizers, one checkered bikini, credit cards, a fifty-star American flag, tektite, Beatles record "A Hard Day's Night" birth control pills, plastic wrap material from Echo II satellite, Kent filter cigarettes, detergent, freeze dried foods, irradiated seeds, a plastic heart valve, an electric toothbrush, and desalted Pacific Ocean water."

 The New York Hall of Science.

Yeah, so overall i would really recommend this as a destination if you want to see something a bit different on your next trip to New York. I'll be back!

I Miss The Freaks

Sometimes i miss NYC. I wish i could just pack up my bags and go there now.
I like the freaks. And i miss them.

Sometimes i see people running around the streets there, shouting or wearing the craziest things or just doing really random shit. I love it. It's so entertaining. 

Even the window displays in the shops are so fun! Old shops, weird shops, random shit. Whatever. I like to just walk around and check out the people and the buildings and all the shops.

Some of the shops look like they're stuck with a window display from like decades ago. Some look like the person doing the window is slightly disturbed.

Ah yeah, and one of the best times we had in NYC was at the Upper East Side at this deli and there were all these cookie old people and i just had such a great time(no photos though, i try to be polite). Man, if i was living there, this would be my local hangout.

Now i have to just scratch all the money together i can so i can go back there soon enough.

What are your favourite places? And why?

COLLAGE NR.1

I wanted to show u what i used to do before i started sewing, which i just started like mid last year.

I used to do collages and drawings and photographs and i thought i show u some.

I did this HUGE collage we had hanging in our living room. But it fell off the wall a couple of times, coz no nails(bloody landlord).

Anyways, it stayed in our storage room for a while and i was playing around with it over the weekend..., some of the pictures i really like.., its more like a collection of strange and weird pictures then a "proper" collage. 

Its fun..  I used to collect all sorts of crazy picture, paper clippings, cud sit on the floor for hours cutting up magazines, like Vice magazine and those culture magazines(Vice Australia sucks tho, thats all i can say to that).

 These pics are just a selection of the pictures i like. 

Ok, have fun and thanks for looking!

the names i gave the pictures:

1.Forest

2.China Garden

3.Gruene Woche(Green Week)

4.France/Berlin

5.London Chinatown

6.Balloons

TAGGIN

I have been tagged by two people in the last weeks so i felt really popular, the first person was estasketch
and then i got also tagged by Carley from vanilla pixie

so thats how it goes,
take the
6th picture of ur
6th photo folder
post it on ur blog and write about it!

Ooouh, i heard about this photo tagging thing before and i always wanted someone to photo tag me, i was actually curious to see what picture was the 6th in my 6th folder, but i must have forgotten to actually look.

Because i havent even got 6 folders. As in all areas of my life im trying to be a minimalist, so i only got 4!
So i thought i take the 4th picture in the 4th folder. and this is it

this isnt even a picture I took myself, its from when i was travelling thru Australia and uploaded all my friends pictures on my computer, so i think one of my german friends took it, it think it was Martin! And he is crazy!


But its a nice picture and im very pleased with it, all the other pictures of tagged people were so pretty, i thought already some might be cheating a little or helping with it, but i guess u dont have to do that!

So here are some more Martins creations, they are all his pictures. Hes quite a character that one and i also feel quite privileged to have such talented friends, ..they dont even know.. most of the time..

This is a picture of Martin, or as we call him Maadin,

hes really quite funny and as u can see he looks just as crazy as he is! Sorry Maadin, u know i dont mean it.. that bad -my english left me hereby for tonight and i blog with u later!:P

I tag Xenotees, Realisationcreation, Chrisy, Twilightspells, Raj and Paris.
