Bijan Sabet: The upside of rejection
This morning I was thinking about rejection.
On my way to the office I happened to pass by a former building owned by NYNEX.
Back in early 1991, just months before I would graduate from college, a number of my classmates were getting jobs at fancy big companies in Boston.
Others were going…
my year 2012
life:
Happy 100th, Chevrolet — what better way to spend their 100th anniversary than with some vintage photographs of an American Classic: The Corvette.
Heart in a Box
Grey’s Anatomy, season 8, episode 8 “Heart-Shaped Box”:
Cristina:
Heart in a box, what should I put on my wish list?
Heart in a box, what should I put on my sandwich?
Can’t believe how many great songs this episode has! Every song sounds just so perfect. Kudos to those ones who chose the music for this episode. I recommend you to check these tunes out…
1. Matthew Perryman Jones - Looking For You Again
This guy is just WOW.
WOW.
2. Miss Li - Shoot Me
Walking down the street
But I can’t move my feet
No more guaranteen
For you but not for me
Miss Li is, according to Wikipedia, a Swedish singer. Well, go Sweden! Again. :)
Love from the first note.
3. Miss Li - I Can’t Get You Off My Mind
Go drinking with the girls
To quit this thinking about you
Miss Li strikes gold twice. Another brilliant and catchy song.
4. Feist - How Come You Never Go There
How come you never go there
How come I’m so alone there
Quite hypnotic song, stucks to your head and you just hit repeat button over and over again.
5. Morgan Taylor Reid - Where Do I Even Start?
My heart is broken
Somebody fix it
Calm, sad. I’m feeling like I’m sitting on a cloud and watching planes fly by…

Wonderful Life vs. Called Out In The Dark
I really like Hurts’ song Wonderful Life. It has nice 80’s sound and look even it was actually made in 2010.
Snow Patrol has recently released a single Called Out In The Dark from their new coming album Fallen Empire. If you listen to the single, wouldn’t you think that it sounds similar to the Wonderful Life???
My Playlist 03/09/2011
Nero - Guilt
This song rocks and hard. Warning: Video is weird but very hypnotizing… :P
Adele - Set Fire To The Rain (Thomas Gold Remix)

Admittedly the original song is very good but it’s a rare occasion when a good remixer cannot oomph the song properly. I think there is enough oomph here.. what do you think?
Adele vs. Skrillex - Set Fire to Everybody (ca7’s Mashup)

Keeping still with Adele but now with a twist! Ca715al1v3 has done a brilliant mashup putting together Set Fire To The Rain and Skrillex’ Kill Everybody (Bare Noize Remix). Worth of listening!!!
Clare Maguire - Ain’t Nobody (Breakage Remix)

You might have seen this new Renault advert.. which at least got me to google immediately what is this great tune they use there… :)
Retail Therapy - Extempore style
Today I was just going to go and browse the shops and see if there is anything I’d like, plus I knew I needed some new T-shirts but as I don’t like shopping and not really shopping when it is Saturday I didn’t think I’d actually buy anything. To my surprise I managed to do quite well today. Painless experience and also I kept my budget which was £60. I love extempore shopping!!
So what I bought today….
4 x Basic T-shirts from H&M: black, white, brown and grey.
Lots of socks from Primark.
Black “YesYes” Skinny Jeans from New Look.
Black Patent Bow Pumps from New Look
Also found nice trousers from Oxfam charity shop. …
And the total was under £60! :)
