Ahhhhhh… So much to do, so little time… and yet, still, I cannot find where to begin. There are so many things I need/want to do. I feel like I am in constant struggle between what I should do, and what I actually do. It’s hard to be stretched so thin, in the end your time is distributed to many places with not much left to yourself. Still, I feel like working this hard is making me more motivated and more creative. I guess it must be the fact that I work well under pressure. I have this secret list of goals I would love to accomplish. I guess it’s like they say, “slow and steady wins the race” I just need to be in the race. Anyway, here’s a little bit of beauty I’d like to share.

The following I saw on this amazing blog I just discovered. Sorry if you do not read spanish. But the content is spectacular.

I’m loving the interweb right now. So much good information. Adding to my list of things to do when I get to NY… February, please get here, but don’t hurry too much…

John Legend’s “Get Lifted” album always does it for me. Then, now, forever. <3

anyway, imagine listening to your favorite tunes on these babies:

Sorry bout that last b.s. post. I was delirious and wanted to finish what I had started, but I may as well not posted at all. Anywho I started “tweeting” in case you missed it (twitter.com/forthearchive) (yeah shameless plug, its my blog I do what I want!) . In case you don’t know what the deal with twitter is; it is an online social networking site in which you connect and keep updated by a series of short messages. So if you want to tell the world, that you are gonna have tuna for lunch, or that you just filed for divorce papers, or any other worthless info, you can. Sounds pretty useless right? wrong. I thought it was useless at first too, buttt, I am learning to love it. You don’t have to “follow” only individuals, you can get streams from other sites, blogs, news, teams, stores, celebrities, whatever you can think of. and I am finding it increasingly interesting to see what’s new in different areas of interest to ME. So here go a few of my twitter news updates. Oh yeah, btw, following the NY Times is getting hella depressing.

Vionnet Revival! (If you don’t know who Vionnet is, don’t ever refer to yourself as a “fashionista” or any other lame terminology of the sort)

Also let me fill you guys in on a twitter abbreviation tutorial, because I KNOW I was not the only one who didn’t know.

SMH= Shake My Head

NSFW= Not Safe For Work….

Byrd and Bell Laptop Sleeve

as seen on Coolhunting

Quite possibly the best laptop accessory  I have ever seen… and that is not an exaggeration.

I recently made a decent investment in a new phone… seeing as the one I had before was acting a mess and kept dying on me, I thought it was the perfect time to finally get with the times and buy a tech phone, at least thats what I call them. 

Here it is; The Samsung Memoir

Here is my not so knowledgable review:

Everything is pretty cool. The camera of course is awesome for the phone (8 megapixels) My issues are the touchscreen scrolling situation. Maybe I gotta have the right touch, I tend to be heavy handed, but I have a really hard time controlling the scroll screen. Of course it doesn’t help that I have used an Ipod touch and iphone before and the scrolling on that is better than this. But I can say its pretty easy to navigate and figure out. and as previously stated, the camera is great. So in conclusion I would recommend this as a first tech phone to anyone who isn’t impatient with touch screen navigation.

Here are some photos I took to test out the camera
