Left the house sometime before dawn and didn't return until after 11 P.M. Coming from Chicago Rome is a comparatively small city. Small enough that you can walk everywhere if you really want to but big enough that the blisters on your feet will make you regret your decision later. Also, no matter how broken in you think those super fancy Frye boots are, they will give you blisters on the bottom of your feet. Thats a promise. This set of photos are my favorite outside of the ones I took in Matera, which are still to come. If I have any advice for some one traveling to Rome, see the sites before the crowds wake up. A feast for your eyes only will be waiting. </div>

Finally got around to compiling the best of day two. The Vatican is beyond anything words can describe and its epicness is impossible to capture in photos. We took a stroll all over town, down the Spanish steps and along the Tiber River that evening into Trastevere, think Logan Square meets the French Quarter. Hip, tight and drrty but still a good place to grab a craft brew and a ridiculous slice of truffle pizza. One of us got pick pocketed on the metro, one of us stopped to buy clean undies and the rest drank is the streets. Those photos will come later. Until then enjoy some pretty captures of Vatican art and some super sweet reflection pix bro. </div>

There is too much to say about my time spent in Italy. Many lessons were learned and many insights gained. The type of experiences that would be a bore to ramble on about but are the type that will stick with me and mold the decisions that I make for the rest of my life. However, the one thing that I must share is how unthinkably, unimaginably, and profoundly amazing the people that are in my life truly are. To call the people I traveled with my co-wokers would be an insult. They are my best friends and my support system and without them I'd be less of a person. The same can be said a hundred fold of my mother. You rule mom! </div>

Before I get all gushy and lose everyones interest, here are the best of the best from my time spent in Italy. Well, from the first day at least. There were so many images taken on this trip the only way I can think to properly organize them is by day. So here they are, day one: </div>

<span style="text-align: center;">Remember those little piggies we fed all that wonderous Ommegang brew to? Well this is what they look like prepared with Three Philosophers soaked cherries and cracked black pepper and pecorino blue corn grit cakes. You'll have to excuse the drooling. </span><a href="http://www.rivernorthbeer.com/News/NewsDetails/101" style="text-align: center;">Craig Fass from The Bad Apple</a><span style="text-align: center;"> and his crew did an amazing job of serving up these flavorful tiny bites for Chicago's foodies and craft beer fans on Monday night. This is coming from a completely neutral party since, ya know, I have ZERO affiliation with </span><a href="http://www.badapplebar.com/" style="text-align: center;">The Bad Apple</a><span style="text-align: center;">, but Craig's creation was the most flavor packed, savory punch to the mouth I received all evening and in my heart Mr. Fass and The Baps will always be the true winners. Though their win was well deserved, it came as no surprise that </span><a href="http://www.rivernorthbeer.com/News/NewsDetails/105" style="text-align: center;">Chef Cosmo Goss and The Publican</a><span style="text-align: center;"> took home the judges vote and we were all happy for our Lincoln Square neighbor </span><a href="http://www.rivernorthbeer.com/News/NewsDetails/100" style="text-align: center;">Chef Tim Cottini of Fork Restaurant</a><span style="text-align: center;"> to take home the People's Choice vote. Hop Chef 2013 was a great night spent mingling with some of Chicago's finest industry peeps and we were all honored to be there. This is a little slice of our evening dedicated to all our homies that held down the fort on Monday night. Rock on. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, after almost a year with no new posts, after almost two years with no digital camera, I got my hands on one and shot some worthy material. A few of my Bapple peeps and I headed down to Catalpa Grove Farms in Dwight, IL to feed our little Berkshire Piggies some beer. The beverage of choice was <a href="http://www.ommegang.com/">Brewery Ommegang's Three Philosophers</a>, a Belgian style quadrupel. And why feed a bunch of cute piglets a finely crafted brew you ask? Because lets be honest, you don't show your love and appreciation for pork by showing up with a case of High Life. Also, the incredibly talented chef Craig Fass of the <a href="http://www.badapplebar.com/">Bad Apple</a> had been chosen to compete in the first annual Hop Chef Chicago competition in which each chef must create a complimentary dish to one of Brewery Ommegang's delicious beers. Craig had the genius idea of snagging a few photo ops with the little Berkies enjoying Three Philosophers, since this is of course the beer they'd be paired with later in the competition. Genius I tell ya. In all seriousness though, it was a really great opportunity for some of the Bad Apple gang to meet the people that raise our goat, lamb and Berkshire Pork. Also, it may seem like an odd notion to some, but it was actually an incredibly humbling experience gettin' muddy with the animals that we gorge ourselves on every evening at work. Here's to all my fallen Berkies in heaven. Much love. </div>

Given the recent insane string of events that has been my life over the past couple of months, photograph taking has been kept to an undesirable minimum. I thought I'd share these even though, in my opinion, these photographs aren't great because I took them, but because of the beautiful subjects Amber and Camela. They are both yoga instructors at <a href="http://www.mokshayoga.com/">Moksha Yoga</a> in Chicago. Although I have not enjoyed a session taught by Camela, her out going and energetic personality at the shoot indicates she would probably be a super fun teacher. I have, however, had the pleasure of benefiting from Ambers thoughtful and attentive yoga instruction and would recommend it to EVERYONE I know. You are both gorgeous people! </div>

I've always wanted a garden. Mostly I've just always wanted to grow strawberries. My grandma always had strawberries growing in her garden and my other grandma always made sure there were plenty in stock when I would visit as a child. I finally have some sort of space and surprisingly enough time to devote to growing some delicious strawberries and much more. At this point I have two cherry tomato plants, six strawberry plants, two peppermint plants, one mint plant and EIGHT (!!) pepper plants. OH, and I forgot to mention the two cucumber plants I adopted! Ive also got some little baby cilantro's that I started from seeds, not even thinking they would actually grow and to my delight FOUR of them did. Mind you this list doesn't include the five planter boxes I have with regular old annuals and perennials in them. I bit off way more than I can chew and I couldn't be happier. Turns out the side effects of having lots of flowers on the balcony is that I now have a purdy party space and I plan to put it to good use this summer!</div>

That's including all the art museums I've been to in the world, all the natural history museums I've been to in the world, regardless of how many drugs I had consumed prior. The only one that might give Jellies a run for its money would be the Alexander McQueen exhibit I had the pleasure of experiencing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC, which stands to this date as the ONLY exhibition that has ever brought me to tears. Now, I sorta feel like this is a weak sauce photo post in comparison to the rest but I haven't done one in a while and figured some is better than none, right? Plus, Jelly fish are wicked awesome.<br />

I'm a capitalist threw and threw. But I'm also not blind to the issues capitalism inherently creates, no one system is perfect and includes everyone on a fair level, not even Socialism. I've been sorta, lazily keeping up with the play by plays on the actual protests, but really, what has gotten my attention the most has been the opinions that my friends are voicing. I seem to be stuck right in the middle while a lot of posts I've seen on Facebook, Twitter, Blogs etc are very opinionated. There's the 'get a fucking job you stupid hippies' mentality which I laugh along with and a certain part of me is like yea, stupid hippies, what are you really getting done by sitting on a sidewalk anyways?? And there's the opposite. The 'I am the 99%' mentality, which, well, basically put I am the 99%. <br />
<br />
It's no mystery to anyone that knows me or maybe doesn't even know me that well, that I didn't have a hard upbringing. Maybe I did in comparison to the super upper middle class lives my peers had, since my family was being supported by one parents income rather than two and we technically lived in Lisle instead of Naperville. Ew. But it was still very cushy. At any rate, I was surrounded by people with high expectations of getting their own car when they were 16, attending a top 10 university and having all this paid for by their parents. There was a small time period when I was blissfully ignorant and thought 'Yes this is what I expect too, I will have it all!' But I remember the moment I realized my life was going to different than the rest of my friends. When having a discussion with my mother at about the age of 14 I mentioned how one day when I move out she would, of course, be helping me with my school and rent costs. She quickly put the brakes on and asked where the hell I got that idea?? I remember thinking 'Well, what do you mean? Isn't that whats suppose to happen?' I had been so brainwashed by my friends conversations and life style that I just assumed that that was how the world worked. Holy wake-up call.<br />
<br />
At that moment I realized and have been realizing more and more with every new experience, that hardly any place on earth is like the town I grew up in. So yes, from that day forward I've learned that you have to work your ass off for everything you want and if you don't want to work that hard don't fucking complain if you can't eat. But then there's the other side. I work my fucking ass off and because I made the "smart" decision by not going to college right away because a) I didn't know what I really wanted to do and didn't want to waste time and money on a degree I might not even use and b) the thought of being done with college and having more or less $100,000 in debt hanging over my head scared the ever loving shit out of me, I have to work even harder to get what I want. Sometimes to no avail.<br />
<br />
To the people who are of the 'get a fucking job you stupid hippie' party, I have one thing to say to you; I'm TRYING! The only reason I have a job right now is because an awesome friend, that I will be forever grateful to, hooked me up. I go on Craigslist EVERYDAY and send out at least 5-10 resumes. I've gone in person to more than 15 businesses that are hiring in last month and have had only 2 call me back. Of those 2, I have had 3 interviews with each and I definitely didn't get the job with one and the other is still up in the air. Not to mention, I'm a pretty girl who is well spoken with TONS of experience. And I still can't get a fucking job! So tell me, how is someone who had a lesser education then I, might not be as well spoken, has hardly any experience because no one will let them in the door suppose to support themselves?? Hell, the only reason I'm not on the streets right now is because I do have a family that is well off and loves me. A lot of people don't have that. Now you might say, hey that's capitalism baby! Got it. But since when has capitalism meant being an ignorant fuck is ok, and being an insensitive dick is a requirement?? What I mostly notice about the divide of opinions as well, is that the people that have never been poor, or below upper middle class, and have cushy steady salary paying jobs are the ones that hate the "poor people". Where as most of the people that had a harder upbringing in maybe say a working class family are all about supporting their own, the 99%.<br />
<br />
You may say, duh, so obvious Jessica. But what I'm trying to do here is speak to both sides I guess and really just work out my own thoughts on paper. I have had experience on both sides. And to the Occupiers I say, I love what you stand for and I think this is a time when SOMETHING has to be done even if it is sitting on a side walk yelling at people in their office buildings. I UNDERSTAND your struggle. I'm in the same boat, in fact most of the people that are against you are in the same boat. I also say to my friends that are of the insensitive capitalist party; great. You are entitled to that, you have worked hard for what you have but I bet nine times out of ten if I asked if you had any help from Mommy and Daddy with that degree you'd say yes. Which is fine. That's what they worked to spend their money on and I don't hate you for that. Am I completely jealous?? Fuck yes. But, like I said, I'm a capitalist. Your family worked hard for you and Im sure you're working hard for yourself and that's why I'm not on those streets waving a sign. Because I'd rather be working, fighting the good fight, no matter how shitty the job may be. But how can you be disgusted by someone who didn't have the opportunities you did? And how can you criticize them for being born into an unfortunate situation that never gave them the opportunity to better themselves?<br />
<br />
This is one way in which I am definitely against the "hippie haters". I would assume that a lot of the people Occupying have been in their shoes before. Having a some what cushy job, maybe had alright education and ya know, I bet they even worked just as hard if not harder than the people with the $350,000+ paying jobs. But I KNOW most of those bloated salary havin' folks have NEVER been in the Occupiers situations. They most likely had a good family who supported them in their educational and financial endeavors, had a solid upbringing. And if not more power to them. But how can you so brashly speak on matters you have never had the displeasure of partaking in?<br />
<br />
After being in another country for 5 months, the one major thing I took away is that I fucking LOVE America. In that time I have also seen and experienced, to a certain level, where we might be headed. We are still a country with a middle class, however dwindling it may be. We are still a country where you can be born into poverty and still have a chance to work your way out of it. But all that is definitely starting to change and something needs to be done to stop it. And really, if you can't get a job anyways you might as well go out and hate on all the greedy motherfuckers that are keeping you from getting one.<br />

Less than a week after returning from Brazil Katharina, Skyler, Chad and I were at it again. We got together in Gurnee, IL to transform ourselves into gypsies, clowns and other 1930's inspired Circus folk. The hilarity was shot at the horse barn that Skyler attends horse riding lessons at. My favorite part of the whole shoot had to be the fact that every prop and outfit used for the shoot was already something one of us owned. Multiple people asked where we had gotten everything and upon hearing our response that the clothing was our own, they would mostly just giggle uncomfortably. Also, people seemed to be weirded out when we informed them that we were just doing this for fun. When did people become so boring? Why is it so strange that 3 grown-ups and a 13 year old want to play dress up and take some sweet photos??? Anyways, love it or hate it, we had some good old fashioned, non drug induced fun. Although something tells me a couple of drinks and other unmentionables would have taken this shoot to a much more entertaining level. Katharina gets credit for the majority of the photos and creative genius behind the entire shoot. I take credit for capturing most of the clowns besides, obviously, the ones of myself. Are these your tears gypsy? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz30AQAksD3wPvfxTNM-OomazCVTVI3cnmrznGIUFMiI5vFhyphenhyphenuaTLnJCek-65mEQ9R2PqJH0heAYDJhReDrclhDIKIqgVsrfAL61y75JnGQfMkzTvIuLKwTjfUAukCB-XCxkDrT2l2Bhk/s1600/DSC_8870+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz30AQAksD3wPvfxTNM-OomazCVTVI3cnmrznGIUFMiI5vFhyphenhyphenuaTLnJCek-65mEQ9R2PqJH0heAYDJhReDrclhDIKIqgVsrfAL61y75JnGQfMkzTvIuLKwTjfUAukCB-XCxkDrT2l2Bhk/s640/DSC_8870+copy.jpg" width="428" /></a></div><br />

No pun intended. (totally and completely shamelessy intended) What better way to spend my last week in Brazil than in Rio? We had a short list of thing's we wanted to do and in addition, after seeing Snoop's video for "Beautiful" a bigallion time, we made up our own little tour of Rio based on the video.</div><div style="text-align: center;"> We found out where the crazy grotto was at the end of the video with the sexy ladies dancing Samba. Which I must say, the real deal was 10 times more breathtaking in person but not quite as much fun as they had in the video. It's actually part of an art school and down each corridor artists have their huge canvas' set up and you watch them paint away.</div><div style="text-align: center;">We also found the stairs Pharrell and Snoop were sitting on. Escadaria Selaron. This place was also magical. It was just a nasty, gray, typical Brazilian stairwell when Selaron decided to re-vamp it with a dizzying amount of tile mosaics. And to make things even more interesting Selaron himself was there just hanging out on the stairs chattin' people up. Score. He is forever adding and changing the mosaics and according to him, "This unique and crazy dream will only be complete on the day of my death."</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Last but not least we went to Copacabana Beach. There were far less bikini clad extremely curvaceous women there which got me to thinking; where those women professional models hired by Snoop for the video??? Darn who'd have thought? Isac and I both left with the WORST sunburn we've had in a while. He's Mexican so I don't know what his excuse was but mine was the shameless Brazilian bikini I decided to don. When in Rome...</div><div style="text-align: center;">All in all, Rio is amazing. And I will forever regret not living there for 4 months instead of the dirty, over populated, no beach havin' Sao Paulo. You can go straight to hell my friend, oh how I will never miss thee.<br />
<br />
P.S. I would like to preface these sub par photos by stating the fact that right before we left for Rio Isac and I sold both of our DSLR's, cuz technology prices are MAD inflated here. So all we had was a little point and shoot. Booo.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

For example a couple could be walking down the beach on a secluded island adventure when suddenly a fellow popsicle enthusiast pops out of the bush looking for a light because his popsicle went out. Now 4 people, from extremely different walks of life are enjoying some light conversation, as none of them speak the same language, sharing popsicle flavors. One of the men may be named Carnval and he would have been an extremely patient individual. Going so far as to draw photos in the sand to communicate with us, uh I mean the lovely gringoes on their island adventure....yea... He may also have been an artist that had moved to said secluded island to escape the harsh landscape and rough ways of the people in Salvador. Carnaval also would be so kind as to allow one of these gringoes to photograph him creating his art which he sculpts out of found and recycled pieces of wood. These are probably what the photos would have looked like :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCZufxyDwuRxfb_EF3o-WATrGfTOXOoI00NkULD4SMwOytrZ8kCzjTpH8hwEu4M2OT25y7NpS-gV8MdCOOjXReboufHWtXnmQty3h-JE2MR2ScMIHsEL9SHrh-RohkCU2vOIdL3YDOIzA/s1600/DSC_0638.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCZufxyDwuRxfb_EF3o-WATrGfTOXOoI00NkULD4SMwOytrZ8kCzjTpH8hwEu4M2OT25y7NpS-gV8MdCOOjXReboufHWtXnmQty3h-JE2MR2ScMIHsEL9SHrh-RohkCU2vOIdL3YDOIzA/s640/DSC_0638.JPG" width="416" /></a></div><br />

Well...sorta.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So now that I've given you the picturesque beach, ocean and palm tree view of Boipeba I guess it's about time to share some of the photos I took in "town". When I say town I mean Velha Boipeba. I refer to a town with ONE cobblestone paved road. I refer to a town that has no cars and moves their goods from one side of the island to another by horse and cart. I have to say that I'm very disappointed in myself for not documenting more of the peoples story in Boipeba. But I really have anxiety about being a tourist. It's odd being a white girl in South America. There's no hiding. Every day I leave the house I feel like I've just showed up to a rodeo in a suit and tie. On top of that, being a white girl with a fancy camera? Well, I'm just begging to be heckled. I really didn't want to invade these people's lives. I didn't want to make it seem as though their way of life was a novelty to the rich white girl who was there for 2 weeks pretending to speak Portuguese while getting a tan. Having said that, my photos do not have many people in them which, I feel, ultimately makes them less interesting. So, sorry I let you down. I know you had SUUUCCHH high expectations for my next post. I plan on getting better at this once I can speak more of ANY language other than English.

Just beautiful images of all the beaches we spent 2 weeks exploring. The whole island of Boipeba is about 6 miles long and about 2 miles wide. There are no cars on the island just tractors and horse drawn wagons. So to get form one side of the island to the other you must walk through the interior or you can chose to walk the miles of beautiful coast line. We took both and I must say neither were disappointing. When walking through the interior I liked to imagine I was in a super happy not so frightening version of 'Lost'. And instead of an ominous black mist chasing us there was a fine glowy sea mist kissing our skin. My favorite beach by far was Praia da Cueira. When I walked onto this beach I felt like I had just walked into someones Window's desktop photo. Coconut groves and huge waves. <3 My second favorite were the tide pools. Sea creatures galore and crystal clear water. The only reason this was not my favorite spot was 1: we didn't have snorkels and 2: coral and rock are NOT as fun to walk on as they may seem. Also, a crowded day at the beach in Boipeba meant you saw max 10 people. We really were on a deserted island. Feast.</div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

A paradise that, if you are poor, is hell to get to. For the rich, there is a plane you can take from Salvador straight to Boipeba in about 30 minutes. For the poor (us) the trip goes as follows: A 10pm, 3 hour flight from Sao Paulo to Salvador. A 4 hour wait in the Salvador airport. A 5am, 1 hour bus ride through some not so comforting parts of Salvador to the ferry. A one hour ferry ride to Itapirica. A 2 and half hour bus ride from Itapirica to Valença. A 2 hour lunch and intermission (waiting for bus 3) in Valença. An hour and half bus ride through the back country and pot hole filled roads of Bahia. This bus ride will forever be carved into my brain as the most painful vehicle ride of my life. The pot holes were the size of the Asiatic cows that grazed in the fields lining the road of death. This bus transported us to the final lap of our trip, a one hour ferry ride to the Brazilian utopia, Boipeba. There are plenty more posts to come regarding this island, so as much as I would like to give away the details of our trip now, my lips will remain sealed. This is my documentation of our hellish trip there and a few sneak peaks of our stay at the end of the video. After 2 weeks cut off from the world; no internet, no cell phone, no tv I'm SO happy to be back in touch with the world. NOT.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Sao Paulo is about 60 miles inland so unless you have a car it's really hard to get to the beach. Thanks to a friend's friend, well I guess he's my friend too, Mao, we (Melina, Mao, Tiago and myself) were able to drive over the hills and through the jungle to get to the coast. I don't remember the name of the beach but all you really need to know is in the photos below. Beautiful hills topped with a fine mist, crabbies scuttling in and out of the water, waves speckled with surfers and picnic all on a wintery, brisk 80 degree day. I had a holy shit moment while slowly sinking in the sand as the waves washed in and out. Holy shit I'm living in Brazil, holy shit I'm living my dream, holy shit nothing else matters except all of this. The next 2 months will be all about reliving that moment and clinging tightly to that feeling. </div><br />

Isac has been busy preparing his 81 pieces for an exhibition in September and seeing as <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/43729279/The_World_s_Most_Expensive_Places_To_Live_2011?slide=2">Sao Paulo is the 10th most expensive city in the WORLD</a>, I've been doing a lot of Rosetta Stone, baking and reading. Yea, you feel that? That's jealousy. Or maybe you just have gas. Either reaction would be appropriate. At any rate, I really am enjoying my time here. It's wonderful waking up every morning with an empty canvas knowing I can create whatever I want out of the day as long as it doesn't involve spending more than R$10. There are exciting things on the horizon though, which are also reasons for my not spending any money. A possible trip to Rio while Isac is in Buenos Aires for 5 days and the long awaited trip to the magical secluded island of <a href="http://www.boipeba.tur.br/portugues/boipeba.htm">Boipeba</a>. Until then, this is what my evenings consist of. Watching my mad scientist at work. <3</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsGoqXExIu0QjEesWtgYcFHxICO-x53DXBBi1cYcgzNVAVpQe-Ektqv4HIxQf-XyAMcdXjNl820Ps8NXzCnS-VpF1ymzL1UeGPeviB4OOa8tdMIq28vKmRuRbn8mzToiIBQvJQ3RT_7KY/s1600/DSC_0588_1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="427" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsGoqXExIu0QjEesWtgYcFHxICO-x53DXBBi1cYcgzNVAVpQe-Ektqv4HIxQf-XyAMcdXjNl820Ps8NXzCnS-VpF1ymzL1UeGPeviB4OOa8tdMIq28vKmRuRbn8mzToiIBQvJQ3RT_7KY/s640/DSC_0588_1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br />

The day started with dreams of getting tipsy (shmammered) on the national beverage, Caiparinha's, which is basically a sweet Gimlet made with sugar cane booze, and eating at, in the true American spirit, the most delicious and expensive pizza joint in town. However, things took a turn, for the not so worse, and we ended up with a more modest celebration. <br />
<br />
Isac has an older Polish gentleman friend, Jasinksi, that has a antique restoration space of sorts here in Sao Paulo. He called and invited us over for soup. A steaming hot bowl of soup and Jasinski's company turned out to be a perfect remedy for the wet 45 degree weather. The best part, beyond the soup, was taking a gander at all the paintings, statues and other knick-knacks waiting for their turn in the restoration line.<br />
<br />
After our visit with Jasinski, we headed to Isac's friend Melina's house. She, as well as Isac, is here on a Fulbright scholarship and to much delight, has the same predilection for whiskey as I do. It was a tame evening spent with fellow American's, drinking cheap beer and whiskey. Which, really what more could you ask for when you're in another country on the 4th of July? We did go for a long walk with seeing a movie in mind but upon arriving at the theater and seeing the $16 price tag we decided that our money would be better spent on <a href="http://recife.olx.com.br/coxinhas-lanches-iid-67380630">coxina's</a> and more booze.<br />
<br />
My photo's from the 4th of July aren't particularly interesting or great. I'm more posting them for all my friend's who spent the weekend obliterated, blowing things up for hours on end in the scorching summer heat. I hope you appreciate the fun you got to have you bastards. <3<br />

With more than 3 million people participating, it was a MUST see/photograph event for me. I water proofed my camera with a shopping bag and some masking tape and we set out into the rain to shake our booty's down Avenida Paulista with 3 million other LGBT supporters. As soon as we got off the metro, probably more than 100 ft underground, we could feel the bass from the floats passing by over head. It was an experience I won't soon forget. People dancing, smiling, making out with strangers. The Brazilians are not a shy folk when it comes to PDA. Add a couple hundred thousand excited, slightly intoxicated gay boys and girls you get a whole lot of lovin' going on in the streets. See for yourself. </div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

We, unfortunately, found this out by showing up at the Mercado Municipal at 4 only to see the doors closing early for the holiday. Damn it. So, we decided to take advantage of the few daylight hours that were left and took some photographs. This was specifically fun for me considering I was using a new lens. A 50mm 1.4 Pentax lens to be exact. It was limiting in a lot of ways but it forced me to change my perspective as a photographer. I had one range instead of multiple with my 18mm-200mm lens I usually use. I also really liked the softness this lens gave when I took the aperture all the way down to 1.4. Not the best work I've done but the first in Sao Paulo. </div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

It was spent in the most plush and fancy hotel I've ever had the privilege of staying, courtesy of my uncle, <a href="http://www1.hilton.com/en_US/hi/hotel/MIABMHF-Hilton-Bentley-Miami-South-Beach-Florida/index.do">The Hilton Bentely</a>. Ridiculous. As I was packing I glanced out the window and noticed the beautiful sunset the storm clouds had created. To the West the sun set over the city and to the East over the turqoise waters, a rainbow. Out of all the skies I've had the privilege of passing under in the past 2 months, Miami's has been hands down the most breathtaking. Sunset and mid-day. I'd like to think that rainbow was there only for me. Something out there wishing and assuring me "boa sorte", good luck.</div><br />

Yes.I've never seen or experienced something as powerful as this natural wonder. 20 ft rapids on the CO River become water washing over pebbles and a massive gorge becomes a scratch in the dirt. I don't really even want to post photos because they just don't do the Grand Canyon a fraction of the justice it deserves. But alas, how else are you going to keep up with my enviable life. :) Live it.<br />

Sucks. But despite being stuck in (even though I chose to visit) this suburban sprawl wasteland, I really enjoyed myself. Nina and James hosted my broke ass and their kitty Desmond was on snuggle duty during the night and many a naps. <3 We hit up the usual. Venice Beach, the Hollywood sign and of course the oh so necessary punk rock show.<br />
<br />
Seeing as it was Memorial Day weekend, we decided to honor our Vets the only way we knew how. Good old fashioned white trash BBQ. Complete with squirt guns, water balloons, 2 buck Chuck sangria, Coors Lights, and the most well designed American grill ever designed, created by none other than Mr. George Foreman. The evening before was the high point of my drunkeness on this trip, spent at The Dwarves show, so I had to sit this drinking excursion out. I ended up passing out before the sun even went down. Boooo.<br />

In order to redeem our trashy selves, James and I decided to have a cultural and class filled day at the <a href="http://www.getty.edu/index.html">Getty Museum of Art</a>. This compound was gorgeous! My favorite exhibit was <a href="http://www.getty.edu/art/exhibitions/walker_evans_cuba/">Picturing Cuba</a>. I loved the post revolutionary photographs by different photographers taken in the past 20 years. Really a great visual documentation of how the country has been affected and how ingenuitive the people of the country have been.<br />
<br />
Of course the best part of being in LA was getting to see Nina again. We reminisced through old photo albums of our psychotic teen aged years spent under age drinking and being complete fucking idiots with no care in the world. Ah, those were the days. Things have definitely changed but it's been nice to see that every single one of my friends has remained the same in all the right ways. Photo time.<br />

I recently listened to <a href="http://www.thedwarves.com/">The Dwarves</a> new album and I'll preface this with that fact that, yes I know I'm not a music critic. But I am a fan and what else really matters to a band with with their kind of status. But really? What is this crap? I'm going to see The Dwarves tonight and thought I'd take a peak at their new album. As soon as I heard Blag wining about how life used to be so much simpler and now he's "a working class ass hole" now, I immediately pushed pause with a scowl on my face. I frantically searched for Blood Guts and Pussy to audibly redeem myself. Now, I get that The Dwarves and most punk genre bands aren't musical genius' but does that mean they all have to turn into crap slinging assholes? Or another side to the story, maybe I'm the asshole. Maybe I've "grown up" too much and just can't appreciate horrible music like I used to in my psychotic teens. Either way, I'm going to enjoy the show a little less tonight for having listened to that album but I'm sure it's nothing a few (many) glasses of tequila and punk rock show antics can't remedy.
