Rockefeller Center, bathrooms, central park

we took the subway to make it to the rockefeller center bathrooms, which were, naturally, totally crowded.



Afterwards we walked north towards Central Park. We passed the Trump tower, all different expensive shops and everything you might think to find on 5th Avenue. Very nice walk, even though it rained again.




cab home, and had dinner in a nice restaurant. now we gonna go to a bar and have a drink.

shores of Brooklyn

no time, gotta leave again, but just some blurry random shots from the shores of Brooklyn

Lower East Side, Union Square and Broadway

We went over Williamsburg Bridge, into the Lower East Side. Actually we were looking for a shoe repair store, but since most of them are
Jewish they were closed because of sabbath. After walking around Lower east side we found a great guitar store with veeeery cheap prices. I wonder how that works, how can they be that cheap. But i didn't buy a thing yet :)

Walking up Broadway to Union Square we found an Usbekistan-shoe-repair-shop. Had a coffee at Union Square. My mistake was to choose Broadway to continue the walk up to Times Square... Didn't know it was Broadway though...Way too many people trying to sell stuff on the street and at times you couldn't walk at all. Eventually we made it to Times Square. Pictures to follow.
Took a packed subway home. Met with Samantha (Gillians sister) at 1am, trying not to fall asleep again. ;)

pictures will follow. Soon i will be able to climb the Empire State Bldg, and take some nice pics.
take care.


these are: me on Union Square, Manhattan looked at from Williamsburg Bridge, and some tall buildings at Union Square


some sculture(s) down in the subway, very cute

new tune

i got a new tune for you:
click me
it's a little blues jam track. not the best i made, but sometimes quiet interesting ;)

on completely different news, i watched "children of men" yesterday...thats really an amazing film. go watch it. it is sometimes disturbing, fascinating and i often didn't think it was the (possible) future i was looking at....really realistic and to the point of how the world nowadays is.

alone in big B

Hey there,
now both of "them" are in Portugal. And I feel like the last remaining in Berlin.
No I don't ;) But as i try to (look at the title of this page) find emotions and dwell in them, i certainly know how it would feel like.
I have zero to none knowledge of soccer. But i want to give a guess on who will become world champion (i love this term ;) )
It will certainly, and with my very educated guess, be:
GERMANY!
Hehehe. I know it is one of the least potential contenders....but hey who knows? When they win I can shout: "I TOLD YOU SO!" And if they lose...hell..everybody knew they would lose. ;) Sounds clever doesn't it. Hihi.

take care and don't get a sunburn down there!

Xmen - The Last Stand and no music at all

Hey there,
sadly i won't be able to "release" my song until perhaps the end of the week. But that is only guessing I must admit. Urgent deadline for my project at university keeps me from completing the song. But please don't mind Cathy ;)

The last stand is really a nice movie, you shouldn't let that one slip past you. If you are not so much into the whole Xmen/Superheroes thing than it's at least a decent action movie. Superb special FX and good sound :)

If you are feeling the XMen than you might have a little problem with this flick. I find it to straight-forward. I don't want to give you too much hints on whats going on - find out for yourself - but the struggles they have to overcome seem so simple in comparison to whats going really on.
But one last hint:
When you see the closing credits, don't stand up. Stay sit and enjoy the music. Else you would miss a very important hint regarding a possible sequel...

cheers

Xmen3

Hi,

Take care and i will tell you tomorrow what to think of XMen3.
cheers

been some busy weeks lately. my father ruptured his achilles tendon, right after moving into a new flat. lots of help needed. then the typo2006 (www.typoberlin.de) started on thursday, and i attended my lectures as well as helping my father with his calligraphy workshop which was a blast as the last 3 years!

i listened to the lecture of chip kidd (www.goodisdead). he told us about how he came to create the new paul simon cover for example (paulsimon.com). lovely baby on the cover ;) it's his godson as he told us. hehe. of course you see this cover right here.

then i watched "daVinci Code" today. quite interesting movie, but not such a big deal :(
