time to carry on with the party

 

So surprisingly New Year’s Eve went great. Never been a big fan of it since after I was 12. Seemed like too much of a hassle. And like any normal person I could never understand why questions about spending it arose in early October when I at least only figure out what’s going to happen every year usually a couple of days before. And I know the people asking and they’re never the type to make reservations. 

So anyway… Went to Goblin. Brand new club, opened in Lipscani Area, Str. Smardan, Nr. 30 to be more precise. It’s warm and with the best vibe I’ve encountered in a Bucharest party spot in a while. The air there just… has a nice ring to it. I thought it was just me until New Year’s but then everything seemed to fit too well in place to be just coincidental. 

Next Thursday, on the 8th I’ll be there attending a… reggae party. Which I’ve been doing a lot lately because I dig the content manager of Jah Army too much to say no. The cool thing is that it comes from a series of parties that took place early in 2009 and pretty much the best I’ve seen around here in terms of theme parties. The crowd made you feel right at home and the club, then Suburbia with it’s former darker appearance, was always lit up and turned red, gold and green. I know it sounds like a clichee, but the atmosphere was so different then than usual that I’m really looking forward to this one. With Goblin having enter the picture, that’s two good vibes at work. 

So anyway… my advice would be to check it out. It’ll get you through the first work/school week faster and better then you’d imagine. And we all could use some color right now. 

So… see ya there! Oh, and you can get more info about it here.

I wanted to show you this because they’re about the most interesting 3 pages I’ve read lately.

I don’t have too much insight on it, hell, what could I say about it. But there’s something that feels amazing about the fact that 21st century or not, art is still happening, the struggle to stand out (which has in fact also caused much pain throughout the years) is present as ever and maybe, just maybe we’re not dying out spiritually.

In between flicker, jaiku, twitter, linkedin, facebook and whatnot, people are still getting up from their chairs and doing… something. And it’s not short movies, it’s not anime or techno music.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have a thing for giant buildings in particular. Or for anything giant and artificial as a matter of fact. It’s just nice to know that apart from well lit office buildings we’re also capable of producing other architecture. And I do believe that collective internal architecture stands out in what’s being erected from the surface of the ground.

On the other hand, i really have no clue what I’m really talking about. But come on… just take a look at this:

and… they did it!

I forgot to post this yesterday, but I think it’s tremendous. So I’m making up for it now. Really, look at it, it really makes up for the lack of faith we’ve come to have in medical advance in general. It’s not that it doesn’t help, it just seems the diseases are doing a better job at advancing that we are.
