About blogging

Well... i know i've been a slacker lately. More than that, i just completely ignored blogging. I forget i have a blog sometimes.

Its funny as i always think i have so much to say but i can't really comunicate, i guess. neither i feel like it most of the time. i seem to still find a little unexceptable of me to expect people want to hear about my grieves or joys, which sounds totally sad i know but its the truth.

I like to write about food, something i am passioned, but i fear turning this into a food blog and being more obsessed than i already am. I believe that even though its a good thing to post about food and eating and im soooo excited about going vegan, i'd dont know how much of the writting about it would be a mere extent of the disorder or just really a subject of interest.

I dont wanna talk about fashion all the time even though i make posts about it and never publish. there are so many fashion blogs out there and i just dont feel like writting about lusting a pair of shoes because you know what, i do love shoes and fashion and its a part of my life but i just dont like the idea of desiring material things. having that said, i still want many balenciaga pieces... MANY... but that wouldnt make my life any different, thats basically where i differ from other fashion bloggers.

I love talking about movies but its personal and i watch more classics than new things and i hate reviews.i try not to pontify but i do, i cant just throw an idea out there and i make it personal because thats what i believe a movie experiencie is. If it made sense to you in a certain degree, its personal. How you view it its personal.So if its mine, what should i bother you with all the reading? If it was meant to make sense for me? hehehe, its complicated and i can post about how tecnically a motion picture was outstading and i do (read the post about "THe Wrestler") but most of the times i can only talk about how i also make my house and backyard as my biggest adventure and probably only Carl Fredricksen would like to read that.

I can't make Grey's Anatomy as my main subject but OMG, what was that 5th season finale??????? And i want me some Major Hunt... i do i do i do. i can't believe they might kill George... see... i can't talk about this all the time.

I love talking about the world, refugees, darfur, vietnam, corporations, vulcanos and the inorganic underwater sea calls (one of my favourite things in life... their call is fascinating) but not on a page where i'm, maybe, to a certain extent, expected to make sense. i dont make sense. i like that.

so thats why i havent been writting.
while my mind is always going everywhere and i keep a fat journal, after all of this time i havent learn to deal with other people than myself. talk to other people that arent well... me.

So i hope many many posts will come along but im sorry if i dont writte much, you 8 lovely people that read my blog hahahaha. I'll try my best ok?

Big Hugs
Kell.

P.S.:And Lauren and Stef, i hope you are doing fine, i miss you all =**
Lauren, i just remembered i totally forgot to reply your email. but im gonna hehehehe... seriously, im gonna.

xaitax says:

deneuve says:
to have a short name or a nickname you have to file a document on city hall
signed by the person who wants the nickname
other 15 that possibly created the nickname
and that will, by its own will, allow you to use such creation
and then you have to wait 21 days
pay a fee
try the nickname for 20 days
come back
file another paper
saying that it works
and it needs to be registered in the goverment as yours
xaitax says:

If you ain't Newton, you ain't shit

Ok, is it just me or Mario Sorrenti is trying to channel his best Helmut Newton in this pictures?







See... people usually pull up with certain photographers *shit* because by now they are well known (God knows why) but the thing is, Helmut Newton knew how to do it.
In this particular case, Sorrenti doesn't. its just so much more than skin, than sexuality you fools.
and the worse part is, i LOVE Sorrenti. I think he's fantastic. but this editorial is all sorts of wrong.
i mean, ch'mon: no tongue people. who are you, Megan Fox?

and who was the stylist, Ivy Walker?
The only thing missing to be a total disaster is Alice Dellal with her "i never showered before" look that i hate.
Pardon me, i'll take a Palmolive anytime.


"if you ain't cowboy, you ain't shit"." and darling, in this case, you're no cowboy.

Rest in Peace, Michael!


I remember growing up and listening Michael Jackson singing "I'll be there" and "Ben" with my mom (her favourites songs from Jackson Five), and oh i loved him.
He's genuine talent, charisma, his beautiful voice.

I really hated when everybody used to say bad things about him, things i always refused to believe and i still do. All i could see was this kind person, that grew up to be someone different just because he was special. HE IS SPECIAL.
Leo used to mock me a little because of me always defending him, but i honestly admired his guts and i've always been so sorry for his awful childhood.


Rest in peace Michael.
Music is what it is because of you.

You are a legend, the true King of Pop and i can't believe you're gone so soon.
You will be greatly missed.
I love you.

"Will You Be There"




Hold Me
Like The River Jordan
And I Will Then Say To Thee
You Are My Friend

Carry Me
Like You Are My Brother
Love Me Like A Mother
Will You Be There?

Weary
Tell Me Will You Hold Me
When Wrong, Will You Skold Me
When Lost Will You Find Me?

But They Told Me
A Man Should Be Faithful
And Walk When Not Able
And Fight Till The End
But I'm Only Human

Everyone's Taking Control Of Me
Seems That The World's
Got A Role For Me
I'm So Confused
Will You Show To Me
You'll Be There For Me
And Care Enough To Bear Me

(Hold Me)
(Lay Your Head Lowly)
(Softly Then Boldly)
(Carry Me There)

(Lead Me)
(Love Me And Feed Me)
(Kiss Me And Free Me)
(I Will Feel Blessed)

(Carry)
(Carry Me Boldly)
(Lift Me Up Slowly)
(Carry Me There)

(Save Me)
(Heal Me And Bathe Me)
(Softly You Say To Me)
(I Will Be There)

(Lift Me)
(Lift Me Up Slowly)
(Carry Me Boldly)
(Show Me You Care)

(Hold Me)
(Lay Your Head Lowly)
(Softly Then Boldly)
(Carry Me There)

(Need Me)
(Love Me And Feed Me)
(Kiss Me And Free Me)
(I Will Feel Blessed)

[Spoken]
In Our Darkest Hour
In My Deepest Despair
Will You Still Care?
Will You Be There?
In My Trials
And My Tripulations
Through Our Doubts
And Frustrations
In My Violence
In My Turbulence
Through My Fear
And My Confessions
In My Anguish And My Pain
Through My Joy And My Sorrow
In The Promise Of Another Tomorrow
I'll Never Let You Part
For You're Always In My Heart.

Ok, i know im a totally sucka for Kate Bosworth and it shows.But how can you not be??

LOOK AT THIS!!


she looks like a floating angel in this GORGEOUS Rodarte dress. So simple, so elegant, so delicate.

See Megan Fox: you dont have to look like a stripper/10-dollars-blow-job-hooker vomited on you to be sexy and beautiful.
TAKE THE INFORMATION AND GO (ha!)

Preliminaires


Its been a long long journey for Iggy Pop! He - as an artist - has given so much with his earthy voice, screams, boredom, punk past, courage, intense sexuality, drugs, short leg, shirtless looks, Lou Reed, Bowie and Madonna's songs that I really thought i'd seen (heard?) it all.

But he did it again.
And he did it big time
.

Its funny... sometimes its not easy on my generation to really comprehend the importance of certain artists even throu history/legacy because its impossible to recreate the enthusiasm, the time it all belong to, as most of the times its not only about their expression form, it includes a certain social movement (rebellion) behind and we are, in the end of the day, used to such different things. We've been exposed to a world with a whole different perspective but he has proved - yet again - why he is who he is: AN ICON.

"Preliminaires" goes to eras i never imagined it would go, with Iggy bringing the best of himself since (dare i say) The Idiot times. He is never apologetic and will never be: He simply throws you in his vision of himself, of Gatsby's jazz, old age, spanish little cities and even Tom Jobim (i kid you not).

His songs "I wanna go to the beach" and "Spanish coast" are so different from the Iggy Pop i know (but isn't the whole album?), no longer "bored", no longer "lusting for life"... he's prancing throu life now with the feeling it can go away but he's here, "waiting to make his scape".
Listen to him channeling his best Serge Gainsbourg in the song "Les Feuilles Mortes" with its beautiful arrangement was mind blowing while "Je sais que tu sais" is like a good memory from the old Iggy along with a Jane Birkin doppleganger making my ears melt with sexyness.
And, even though i HATE playing favourites here, the song "He's dead/She's alive" has such a Leonard Cohen/Keith Richards vibe, with GORGEOUS blues sound and life of its own, that made me have goosebumps all over my body.



I'm glad, really glad he has done this album as it, for me, is a proof that the artist that i love so much is not famous solely for rock and roll abuse, heroin and Bowie's gold touch. He's an amazing, versatile, talented singer and performer, that somehow managed to stay alive enough to give the rock and roll's history a reason to look back and say: At least one singer made it throu all those years without looking like a sissy with unfortunate hair ;)

But enough with my words, his are much better.
