I've got a new longboard! It's not really the shape I had in mind I'd much rather have had a Longrifle or Citycruiser instead of a Speedboard but hey, I'm not gonna complain if I get it handmade by our school's own soon-to-go-enterprise product design crew for a mere 25 bucks...

Love

I'm So Hip

ccseabass — 2009-08-11T17:20:00Z

Now will you look at that, if it ain't Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biehl grocery shopping last 4th of July. Not interesting you say? Wrong. Cause if you take a closer look, you'll discover that the Prince Of Pop is wearing the same Adidas sneakers I was already sporting over a year ago.

I'm not hip, I'm über-hip ;)

It's Not What You Think...

'Cause it's not a fixie and never will be. I have to admit though that the whole race bike craze didn't leave me unaffected. I really did enjoy the speed and agility of these things while trying them out back in Germany. But still, I can neither relate to the lack of the freewheel mechanism nor to the lack of brakes. I guess I'm just too pragmatic when it comes to that and need/want both. That's why the Alta bike I'm gonna buy off of Bleed (but which is already in my possession, muahaha) has these two little 'extras' :) Now I just need to re-negotiate the price a little...

The Internet Is Giving Me The Creeps

What you see below is a screenshot of my 'Suggestions' page on Facebook. For those of you, who don't use this social networking platform: on this page you find a list of people that Facebook 'suggests' to you to become friends with. These 'filtered' people are in 99% percent of the cases friends of your friends on Facebook (so you might actually know them). It very rarely happens that someone completely unfamiliar pops up and if they do, the connection is something like same school, same university etc. but at least there still is some sort of connection...

As for the girl I circled, Päivi from Finland, I also know her. We met on an online apartment search forum about two years back when we were both looking for a place to stay in Copenhagen. We exchanged email addresses and had planned to find an apartment together opening up a flatshare seemed easier and cheaper than finding something by yourself. To cut a long story short, finally we both actually did end up finding something on our own but decided to at least meet up for a coffee just for kicks when we were in Copenhagen. So we also exchanged phone numbers, met, had a coffee, found out that we had very little in common and that was that. We never had contact after that again. Not via email, sms, anything. And now she pops up in this very 'Suggestions' page.

And here's the really scary part: we have no mutual friends on Facebook, we never visited the same school or university she studied at Copenhagen Business School heck we most likely don't even have the same interests posted. We only lived in Copenhagen during the same period of time. So I ask myself: why, of all the people that Facebook could possibly pick for me as a 'potential friend' it for fuck's sake chose Päivi?! How the hell does it know that we had contact (and that only very briefly)?! Maybe it doesn't know, maybe it was just a very stupid coincidence. But actually I just can't believe that. My head just went into paranoia mode and now I'm thinking that Facebook somehow, somewhere pulled this information off the internet email records, phone bills, whatever. I know that sounds ridiculous, but seriously, what are the odds?

Deutschland, Here I Come

In a little less than ten hours I'll be heading to good ol' Germany. Happy to go home even though it's gonna be some extremely busy two and half weeks. Hope everything works out ok. Wish me luck!

Good Advice

Mixtape Bug

ccseabass — 2009-05-04T08:12:00Z

Ok, it works again, but I had to sacrifice my good old Mixtape :( I guess the Boombox is cool too. If only that &$%@! play button weren't so hard to find. Arrrrgh!

Well

ccseabass — 2009-04-11T22:29:00Z

...I kinda have to agree.

I'm in Amsterdam! Blog updates might be scarce over the next couple of days.

Shoes Shoes Shoes

ccseabass — 2009-03-07T13:12:00Z

I never really noticed, but we have a shitload of shoes at our flatshare. Altogether we must have something around a hundred pairs. Not bad for seven people...

:P

I wish I could already show you guys the Bombay Sapphire posters and invitations I did and which arrived yesterday. But unfortunately the whole campaign doesn't launch before next Monday. And that means I can't put it up yet. I already took a couple of pictures today and got all excited until Annika very rightfully so pointed out to me that I might be heading for quite a shitload of trouble should anyone of relevance see those images be up on my blog before the official start.

Grrr.

Just schtuff.

Cool

ccseabass — 2009-02-28T12:27:00Z

It is not cool to work 16 hours straight on a week day.
It is cool to walk home in daylight for the first time in months.
It will hopefully be cool, when I'm going to the print start on Monday to see my posters and flyers be produced.
