travel

check out our video of the mixed use tower crawl we did last week:



jiddy is a brilliant editor...it's so awesome. we showed it at the beginning of our presentation yesterday and it was great. unfortch i only had like 5 minutes to give my part of the presentation because the group before us went like 20 minutes over. they were great - brought beer and peanuts for us because their presentation was on stadiums. i presented on albertslund syd and oma.

it's so busy here. every day passes and then i can't remember what happened because it went so fast. yesterday was the opening of the musical ross wrote, brick by brick, (based on the stories of edgar allen poe), which was surprisingly amazing. i mean i knew ross was talented, but generally i hate musicals, and this one i actually really enjoyed. i also think it was because my friends were in it - erica played the sassy hungarian nymphomaniac and jarett played dr. de kock, an insane doctor at an insane asylum. that was pretty much the funniest thing ever. jarett's stage presence could stand on its own beyond any show or anything like that...i just laugh and laugh at that stuff. afterwards he told us after the first number he faced in our direction because from our hysterical laughter he could tell where we were sitting. i wish i could describe the mannerisms to you. imagine a rooster dressed in 1890s clothing, wearing eyeliner, who uses his entire head as a beak, and keeps going squuauaaaarrrk. anyways erica has a really, really amazing voice so it was great. i was happy for all of them.

then an hour later there was a lampoon show, well really they opened for "treble in paradise" which is a female acapella group. HA! anyways hilarious. they ended with a joke about a wheat allergy, which really got us all going. anyways it really took me back to highschool in a way - everyone's doing the SEEEEENooooiiiirs thing, and watching "the last show" of this school group. i felt like i was in mem hall. except a much queerer, less waspy version of mem hall. the black squirrel is in a room that is really pretty incredible. big bauhausian windows on one side, 20ft ceilings... too bad they slathered party carpet all over the walls. yeugh! actually i'm starting to like it just because it's so bizarre. it feels like a cross between an abandoned warehouse in brooklyn and a chuckey cheese in illinois.

then i think we were going to go to the bar, but it was just too much to do. i went home and went to bed. woke up this morning to a lot of rain, hopefully it'll end before tonight, because take a look at the poster for this party max martin and some other dudes are throwing tonight:



HAH! we need this.
