The Eyes Of A Spectator

So we decided to stay at for house, and that's what we did for about 2 days. We didn't stay that long, but it was a very fun two days, and the amount of joy we had could barely be compared to anything really. We came at around like 8 PM to her house, and we just talked, and Mike looked around, and loved the place. The whole house is brimming with artwork to the very corners of the whole apartment. There's art literally everywhere in every room, and alot of people fall in love with that, and Mike really loved it. So we went to sleep, to awake to a beautiful aroma of food in the air. My mom had made crepes, and it was delicious. We talked about her artwork and how she doesn't prove it because commercialization is dishonorable and how her situation with how she lives is horrible. For those of you who are interested, she is indeed very ill. She's suffered from two heart attacks, and has Diabetes from when she was 7 years old. On top of that, she is completely blind in one eye and has very poor vision in the other. She's a pretty tough woman, who can stand all of that, but it can only go on for so much. Luckily Mike's mother is a trained professional in diabetes, so maybe she can help, I hope for the best. So after the breakfast we decided to head out and venture into the city. My other told us to go to Chelsea Pier to go see The Frying Pan, which is a boat off of the Titanic which sank, but we skipped that and just walked around. We got really hungry and went to this place called Nooch, which is a fantastic place! Really nice. Go there if you can some day. Then while walking we found a guitar store which was pretty unique. I forgot the name of it, but it was really unique in a unique way. From the outside it looks like a Guitar Center or Sam Ash, which are pretty popular instrumental stores. However, when you go inside, it's very small, and everything is all in your face, you hardly do any walking. What was amazing was the stuff that was in the store. Huge amps, small amps, new guitars, old guitars, old old old old guitars, and really interesting guitars. I recognized an original Les Paul and Fender Stratocaster from like the 30s or 40s, amazing. Mike took some pictures, which turned out great. So after that, we kept walking along, and passed a bondage store. I really wanted to go in because I was so curious as to what type of things are in those kind of stores. I walked in and Mike came in along with me, and we had no regrets or doubts going in and were happy. So we go in and we see this guy with tattoos all over his body, and he comes right up to us and asks us if we were 21. Well, we got kicked out, and I got all sad, and vowed that I would go back in once I turned 21. I don't understand why we have to be 21 to go into the store, we weren't even going to buy anything anyway. So we continue walking and we get to this exhibition in The New School, which was pretty cool. There were all sorts of gadgets from many miscellaneous companies created, and selected by the school to show to the public and review them. I got some really good macro shots in. Enter pictures.


Great macro shots eh? So after the exhibition we were really tired, so we went outside and sat on a bench. We talked about life, and girls, and having fun, and what we should do for the future. So Mike came up with an idea for a social experiment. He wanted to talk to random people, any people, who would talk about what excites them, why they go out, why they do things, what motivates them, and I put that into practice, but not until later, I'll do that next post.
