Koushik - One in a day...

noreply@blogger.com (Kissey Asplund) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 13:25:00 +0000

Believe it or not, listening to music goes in phases for me. I recently been having my head very deep in to 2 new projects and about a couple of weeks ago my ears just yelled'n'screamed: AAAAAAAAAAAA nooooo mmooooooooore!!!! So this resulted in that I been only checking out the tracks I've posted on here, tweeted about and some retro-jazz when cooking. (this is dramatically less music-listening!). Been trying to tune into my environment instead when walking, running, talking, cell-phoning...waking up... The world has a lot good to say. This morning my head and ears felt like: ...hm..maybe we can start again and this 'Koushik'-track felt like a marvellous way to begin...

Kissey is: In NY, drinking her Taiwanese Oolong and going for a looong exercise soon.

Parade. City Hall was full of so much people...me and Scribe had to stand at the jumbatron a couple of blocks away with thousands and thousands of Yankees-fans. (not that I minded that )Talk about hanging out with a bunch of happy people a sunny but chilly Friday midday.:) A little bummed out that I didn't get to see the actual parade... feel the Ticker-tape-rain...but Scribe told me that he heard on the radio that the fans that were standing parade-upfront had been there since 3 am....I was asleep 3 am...

Manhattan-walk...

noreply@blogger.com (Kissey Asplund) — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:29:00 +0000

Yesterday I decided to walk from almost the top of Central Park to and over the Brooklyn Bridge. On my way there I spontaneously decided to see the exhibition 'Slash' at MAD. The whole exhibition is made with paper. With that said the above piece made by 'Andreas Kocks' is...yepp you are right! With paper...

...My walk continued. Bought a fake pair of Ray Bans that I pooped the licensees out, a huge turquoise ring (you will eventually see pictures of both)...

...The most marvellous enconture happened during this walk. I was crossing the street at NYU and on the opposite side comes no one less than my friend 'Shantell Martin'. Jet-lagged, confused and chocked as I was I couldn't really get a sensible word out, but it was sooooo nice to see here. And the bridge? Well...I mange to walk pass the ramp...by then I walked for 5 hours and actually felt to tired to walk it. So I'll do that some other day. Guess the experience was more the walk than the actually getting there...

...these roses are part of my project 'Everyday'. Going to boost my creativity by trying to do a small mini project everyday. Conclusion: My sisters arranging are sooooooo much more gorgeous, she got the 'fingers', but I had so much fun and felt so free doing something that I knew that I'm not good at.

After forgetting my credit card, putting it and my half-awake sister in a cab - destination 'Stockholm airport'. I crossed the Atlantic Ocean :) Good morning sunny-and-much-warmer-than Sweden New York.

I missed out on the marathon that went down here yesterday...BUT the streets was crowded with supporters, runners, curious Georges and other Homo Sapiens long after it was over. Went for an early dinner at 'Mana'.

and reliving funny things from back in the days.Used to watch those pit-potatoes over and over again...

One of the greatest things that happened when I was younger was when my parents got a new VCR. Me and my siblings found the amazing world of watching 'Huxley the Pig' in slow motion ...clay animation is soooo much funnier in slow motion...

My sister told me about this blog yesterday (her best friend told her about it). It's really...well see it with your own eyes. The story she told me was that it is a couple that have the... *tada*... classic distance relationship. So He set up this site and started to write love messages to Her...so that she could go online and see them even thou he was far away. Eventually she started to post back to him and today you can follow them both. Felt so warm reading this...

...Go to CardboardLove's main site (with the posting of the day) or go here to see the archives in scroll.

Hi darlings,

Just came in, been for a walk, been for a talk, Sunday today....Mmmphmm (said in a carribean way) The snowy weather is gone again and now we are back in the gear autumn. Thanks for asking - Benjamin (the tree) is doing very good indeed. Moved him to a new spot, next step is to replant him in a beautiful big pot...kind of killed my orchid...left her standing in water for 2 days... :S ...not to good....not good at all. Been surfing the blogs since I got back in, checking out what's up in the www-world. Found this video on 'Get shit Done'. Wish I had known about this piano-stairs when it went down in Stockholm. Fun way to spice up your everyday.
