Be Funky

This is what happens when a friend tells you about a great website and you don't want to do stuff for school ;-)

Last friday a woman fell into a painting of Picasso, causing a six-inch gash in the canvas. On the blog Marvelous Kiddo there was a link to the New York Times Artsbeat blog and the comments are just as funny as with that idiot I wrote about a few days ago!

Here are some I just love:

"Was she speeding?"

"too bad it wasn't an andy warhol painting"

"Remember that Steve Wynn put his own elbow through his Picasso.....ah, the power of art to be so disorienting!"

"She really fell for that Picasso."

"Who gives a darn about a painting. Is the human being okay?"

"I'm guessing that art class just cut the cocktail hour out of its curriculum."

"Does anyone else notice a resemblance of the figure in this painting to Barack Obama?"

"Someone should send this woman a bottle of wine and tickets to the next Damien Hirst exhibition."

This week is a week with a lot of college stress. At the end of this week I have to make three tests, one presentation and I have to make a school programme for kids between the ages of nine till twelve. And actually I have to do a lot more, but I think this is enough. The rest will come next month.. But it is already so much that I don't really know where to start.. When I see this picture, it motivates me. So I probably should buy it and hang it on my wall so in moments of crazyness I can have a look at it and know what to do.. get my sh*t together and make it work ;-)..

Complex

Speaking of tumblr's, the Audrey Hepburn Complex tumblr makes me everytime I visit it, also sooo happy :-)

Free positive thoughts

I work for a company that just introduced a new beauty brand, called Deep Skincare. For the online campaign they started a tumblr with free positive thoughts. Believe me, if you need some happy feeds, just take a look at the tumblr!

Amen

On the blog of the New York Times some 'journalist' wrote after watching the Golden Globes that some of the actresses looked like they gained some pounts. A Maura from Chicago wrote this as comment and all I want to say is: "Amen sister!"

"are you out of your ever loving mind? i bet you are some sad man who sits alone every night and eats himself into an oblivion. first the michael hall comment and now this? in what realm of reality is a size 2, 5 foot 4 woman fat? if you look at any health website at an BMI index you would see that they most likely UNDER weight. before you go ahead and ruin some young girl out there who thinks she has to starve herself to be pretty - think about the fact that you, as a journalist, have the power to make that girl think that she is worth something. why don't you take that route? why be a sad individual who clearly has some issues of their own and ruin some stranger's life? why don't you show yourself in THOSE EXACT DRESSES and let us judge you? then once you see how it makes you feel, you'll think twice before being such a pompous jerk. and as for michael hall, i personally never watch that show, but as a 'journalist' (and the air quotes are because i'm pretty sure if i actually call you that anymore the real journalists out there will genuinely be offended) MAYBE you should hire and intern to fact check for you. you deserve all the wrath you are getting for both of this inhumane comments. the man has cancer and all those women in my humble opinion, need to eat a cheeseburger.

love, maura (a 5'10", 150 lb women who is engaged - just in case you thought maybe i was sad, alone and overweight)"
