LCD Soundsystem rocks!

I went to a concert on Wednesday, the most fun concert I went to in a while, to watch LCD Soundsystem. From the beggining to the end, my best friend, my boyfriend and I couldn't do anything but dance, dance, dance! We left feeling super happy and lucky, since we were some of the last people to see them live, since they're separating soon. They'll give their final show April 2nd at Madison Square Garden and that's it for them. The show was awesome, they played all their hits and I'll share this cool song to dance during the weekend. Enjoy!

Goodreads + World Book Capital

I've recently discovered Goodreads and as a reader I find it a very interesting site. You can keep count of the books that you've read, the ones that you want to read and share with your friends your opinions on them and also get recommendations. I might be getting to know this site a little late, but I'm loving it so far and I check it at least once a day. If you like, you can friend me there. ;)

In other news that get to me late, I've JUST found out that Buenos Aires is the World Book Capital for 2011. I can only blame the city's goverment for this... it's a completely underestimated fact! But this doesn't come as a suprise, I'm not ashamed to say that I think that the city goverment sucks. The most important things to be taken care of such as education and health are forgotten... don't even ask me were all of our money goes. I'm tired of politicians stealing our money. I'm not about to make this entry a political entry, it's not what this blog is about. I'd just like to be proud of having my city as the World Book Capital and knowing that the goverment is doing something about it.

Anyway, in the spirit of booklovin' I'll end the post recommending you a book of one of my favorite writers. The Wind Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami.

Telling what this book is about is a little hard, because, like all of Murakami's books, there are a lot of paralel stories and characters to follow. So I'll just say that it's a book that changed my life and that I felt sorry it was over when I finished it.

Have a great weekend!

I want to be a Mad Men gal

I've said it already, I loooooove Mad Men! And lately I'm in love with vintage clothing, I'd kill to own a 1960's dress!  And guess what? I've found an amazing Etsy shop tu fullfill my needs! Daisy and Stella is now officially bookmarked, here are some of my favorites.

Mandy's Giveaway

Miss Mandy over at Chocolate Creamcake has one of my favorite blogs and since last week is hosting a super giveaway. I think that you should take a chance to know about her and her blog, it's swell!

Interview at My beautiful disaster

My penpal and friend from Canada, Erin, over at My beautiful disaster, posted an interview featuring yours truly. You can read it here and while you're at it, enjoy Erin's blog. Thanks Erin! :D

Catfish

Like the poster says "Don't let anyone tell you what it is". So... I'm not here to tell you anything but WATCH IT! And then let me know what did you think about it. ;)

Photos

I told you on a previous post that I got a pinhole camera for my birthday. I've been taking photos with it, some results were pretty bad and other not so bad. So here are my two favorites.

I've been reading lately that there's a Valentine fever going on. That's not a super holiday here in Argentina, I don't know anyone who celebrates it here. But I might prepare a little something for my boyfriend anyway, really just as an excuse because I like surprises (getting them and giving them as well). Any suggestions?

Disconnect the dots

I love my new skirt!

 My cat Toto seems to like it too :P

Mad Men

I love watching TV series... If I had to make a quick calculation of how many shows I'm currently watching, I'd say over ten. But the one I want to talk about now is Mad Men. I've watched three of the four seasons so far and it's been a blast. The show is about a guy that works at an advertising company and the name of the show has two meanings: mad men (as in crazy persons, obviously) and Mad (short for Madison Avenue) Men (as in the guys from the street where all the advertising companies used to be).

All the characters are pretty good and what I love about the show is how well the '60s are represented. The wardrobe and art are just amazing! I'd just love to buy all those vintage dresses and wear that kind of make up...

And also there's a super hotie playing the main character of Don Draper, an ad man who suposedly has the perfect life, but not everything is what it looks like...

The plot line is captivating, I highly recommend you this show!
