Like a lovely modern take on the 60s.

Why am I such an SPG? That’s Tom Sturridge from The Boat That Rocked (check out the trailer). I fell in love when I saw him in those glasses.
This is how I feel 99% of the time.
Randy Johnstan was 20 when he died last year.
Did you know that many have said that 300 is Orientalist (racist representation of the East by the West)? I was too busy rolling my eyes at its hyper-dramatism, primitive battle cries, and annoying shouting to notice that. IT’S LIKE THE WHOLE MOVIE WAS IN CAPS SO HOW CAN I PAY ATTENTION TO ANYTHING ELSE? I really want to be indulgent and go on and on about how 300 was just made to be spoofed, but I shall not because THIS IS ABOUT ORIENTALISM!!!
Anyway, according to some scholars, the Spartans represent freedom, democracy, and the West in general, while Persians represent the Orient, or East. The Persians are monsters, who are all slaves to a corrupt gay king. Spartans, on the other hand, (were as gay if you ask me) were physically perfect specimens, who defended honour and fought bravely.
Seriously, I don’t give a shit about how Westerners portray Asians. It doesn’t affect me that we’re stereotyped and marginalised. Some stereotypes are true and mockable, and I can appreciate that. I’m just glad to be Asian because we know what the East and West is pretty much about, whereas most Westerners just live in their own world.

I can’t wait to start taking photographs again!
We are like butterflies who flutter for a day and think it’s forever.
If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another.
I am often amazed at how much more capability and enthusiasm for science there is among elementary school youngsters than among college students.
It is of interest to note that while some dolphins are reported to have learned English — up to fifty words used in correct context — no human being has been reported to have learned dolphinese.
If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe.
The world is so exquisite with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for which there’s little good evidence. Far better it seems to me, in our vulnerability, is to look death in the eye and to be grateful every day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides.
We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology.
Carl Sagan
Carl Sagan’s a smartass astronomy author who was known for explaining big ideas of the universe. He studied at the University of Chicago (207, leave me alone.) too. Seriously, how can 1 human brain possibly contemplate that many big ideas?
Forgive my cheesiness, but I think that this little narrative about the Pale Blue Dot by Sagan is absolutely moving. I think that if everyone listens to this once every week, the world would be a better place.
I think Dior Homme needs someone to date all their models and write a blog about it. Please hire me.
Sounds pretty sad to me.
