The Usual Suspects

August 30th, 2009

One of my favorite movies ever was The Usual Suspects.

You need to watch it if you haven’t and don’t watch any spoilers before you do.

Then after seeing the movie, preferably at least twice, watch the interview.

Remember, do not watch the interview until you have seen the movie! :)

Episode Five of the Kevin Pollak’s chat show (episode list here).
Part 1 of 4 / Part 2 of 4 – Christopher McQuarrie

(The parts 3 and 4 are with Paget Brewster.)

Had to post it here. Thanks to Alvan for posting it on his blog.. so I could steal it. :D

Inspirational eats

June 21st, 2009

Here’s a great video about making organic cupcakes.

I am trying to fix my eating habbits, but it’s difficult. I need inspiration. :)

I keep telling people about a great vegan cake I made for christmas one year. Maybe I should try that again, and make it organic.

I am not going to go vegan again, but I’d like to try to eat healthy, organic food that I made myself.. Trying not to keep with the ordering pizza at the last minute because I did not bother to make any food for myself all day -routine any longer.

This home is so beautiful, by the way!

I started Twittering. People are either sick of the whole thing already or just really busy with Middsummer madness. (Well  I guess that’s just here.. Finland closes down during the days around Middsummers’ eve.)

T cool

June 10th, 2009

I just love this t-shirt called Swinger, by Three Delight.

And this is a fun idea.

These kids made their cool shirts!

I want to learn to design things on t-shirts and bags.

I have been feeling a little feverish lately.  I hope I am not getting a flue.

This moves me

June 9th, 2009

I was hiding from the rainy weather and eating strawberries while surfing the net and found this cute pattern by Anne Bryant. I just love cute and creative patterns. One of the age old ideas I have yet to put into action is that I would buy small pieces of fabric and frame them. And I need to set up my sewing machine so I can get some small bags and things done. I might even start a small shop.. if the tax office allows. :)

I have been dreaming about a caravan like this lately. And now I found one online. It’s so cute! If any of my friends move to the country side, I am moving in their back yard with one of these. :D I am sure they’d be thrilled. :D (Mental note to self: must buy a dvd of Wonderfalls from my next pay).

Supergreen urban design

May 23rd, 2009

This is an interesting project, with a cool poster, ofcourse. I love projects where people can submit ideas to make their city greener and more fun to live in.

Here’s information about renting a cheap (2 e) bike in Helsinki and some bike tours of the city. Remember to get a helmet too!

My bike’s at my parents bike cellar again. It was in Tampere with me for a while but I never got around to driving it. I know, that’s lame. I have realized that even if you don’t forget how to drive a bike, you still can be really bad at it after years of not doing much sports. I used to be a fiend on a bike as a kid. But I support the idea of bikes fully and plan on one day to take up the habit again. It’s summer, maybe I’ll get around to getting used to it again sooner rather than later.

To keep up with the tradition of linking to posts about decorating, here’s Lauren’s crib. I found it randomly. I think it looks pretty awesome. I want that color on my walls! And that yellow lamp, I want that too!

I need to watch Fifth Element again, for like the 1878171th time. It’s made of awesome!

Police: Are you classified as human?
Korben Dallas: Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

DJ Ruby Rhod: What was that honey? It was BAD! It had no fire, no energy, no nothing! So tomorrow from 5 to 7 will you PLEASE act like you have more than a two word vocabulary. It must be green.
Korben Dallas: Can I talk to you for a second?
[Throws Ruby up against a wall]
Korben Dallas: I didn’t come here to play Pumbaa on the radio. So tomorrow from 5 to 7 your gonna give yourself a hand, green?
DJ Ruby Rhod: Supergreen.

Water

May 16th, 2009

I want this bottle designed by Helen Dardik, but it costs a lot to order it from the US. And I don’t have a credit card. But I want to support her art anyway, so I am showing it here.

I need to drink water at work because I do customer service work over the phone a lot. I have been reading about store bought bottled water and I really don’t feel like drinking it much. I do have a plastic bottle but the water does not taste very fresh in it, I kind of feel like the plastic is making it taste funny. Maybe I am just silly. :)

Wicked

May 6th, 2009

This is seriously wicked. You need to watch the whole thing, wait for the Bearded man. :)
