Grimes is an amazing creature, you have to have to go see her if she plays a show where you live. This is a video-turned-gif of her playing Genesis last night at the Mosaic Festival. Sadly had to cut the gif down to a quarter of the length, damn you file size limits.
She closed with Phone Sex (that’s not on her album), so good to bounce around to.
I rarely share people’s videos here but this one is too good to pass up. Zooey & JGL, more more moooore!
So wherever you are in the world tonight, happy new year!!!
Holler to my bff, we love you and we’re gonna miss you tonight! xoxo (f_ _ _ h_ _ _ s_ _ _).
P.S. thanks to some of you who were so nice and encouraging about my rad red christmas photos, much love!
Yesterday I got to hear this tape of my brother & I when we were really little, probably when he was five and I was two. My ahgong recorded us on this actual tape recorder!! I don’t have the slightest memory of this machine and never knew it existed, so imagine my face when my ahgong plugged everything in and pressed play. I didn’t think it would work, how dare I. Then two seconds in, I hear this voice which I don’t recognize as my brother’s. But it’s him and I couldn’t stop laughing – he was singing rhymes and it just doesn’t go with who he has grown into now, heh.
This short clip begins with me wailing and if you listen closely, you can hear my brother laughing in the background. Then you hear my ahgong laughing too, in real life. He goes on to ask in mandarin, whose voice is that and I say, I don’t know. He hears my brother’s voice and says it’s “kor kor” (which means elder brother). My brother goes on to say “mei mei” (that’s me) and I say “kor kor” (which is what I still call him today) then he asks if I wanna sit MRT which is the term for our train system here.
Pretty fucking amazing.
Beans, beef fajitas, guac, salsa, fillings, everything – I almost lost my mind before the party started!
(Shal, were you posing for the camera here? WIN face!)
Sarah!
Mel and her, tongue!
Tower of rainbow madness was made by dearest ovenhaven!
And the game of charades begin! First we split into two groups and come up with the words.
Sherms making a face despite being on the winning team??!!
At the end of Charades, we all find out how nonchalantly good Miss Nabbycat is at guessing. Lady in the blue dress, that is. She, like, guesses EVERYTHING! Even the ridiculous ones, she gets them.
And if all these photos aren’t enough, haha, you can check out this video that Sarah made of the party. Actually, please check it out because it’s so so good! She called me one night to tell me it was up on her blog and I was all, grumpy doing my work, grunting at her. Next minute, I called her back squealinggggg!
Random but it’s my mom’s birthday today!
{Thank you Caili for photos! I stole some from you, Celeste! And boobyhug, Sarah for the video!}
This is a Chinese and Japanese character that stands for Sun, pronounced as “ri”. I took this outside a Japanese kindergarten. So go outside and get some sun peeps, have a great weekend!
(Also I really can’t help but want to make you want a slow loris too!)
