Yesterday, Mar and I went to the San Francisco Thread Show where we spent too much money. The show, held at the Fort Mason Center, was mostly local artists (although I did meet some people from Miami and Las Vegas) who showcase their work and sell it for way cheaper than it usually is. LOVED IT. I bought some awesome shirts (ying, yang POW), some cool jewelry for my sister and myself, and an awesome bowl made out of an old record. One of my favorites that I got were these wearable magnets from UNO. I love them. You can be so creative with them. I really wanted this jacket that I saw, but couldn’t justify spending that much for a jacket, especially since I don’t have any money. The fashion show was pretty interesting, as it had a live singer while the models walked down the runway, which I thought was a good touch.
I also had a huge Hoagie with meatballs and a cocktail because I am obese. But both were Oh so delicious.
Overall, it was a great time and all the designers and sellers were super friendly. Ill definitely go back next year. Enjoy some pictures after the link.
I was on the T train, heading downtown the other day to meet an old high school friend.
On the train I overheard the following awesomeness:
Girl 1: Can you still get STDs when you are on the pill?
Girl 2: No, I don’t think so.
Girl 1: Oh good.
Fun little surprise we saw while checking out the Richard Avedon exhibit at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It was my first time there and since Katrina’s parents are members, we used the membership to get in for free. Boo yeah. The museum is amazing, especially those exhibits that had Elaine and I looking at each other and saying “WHAT THE $%^&*”.
Its official…They need to be saluted.
So does Tecate.
Meet Andy. He is an actor and model from Memphis that just moved to SF. We had such a fun time on our photoshoot. First of all, he reminded me a lot of my good friend Aaron, just this tall and goofy guy. But once we got shooting, he acted like a total pro! He definitely knew what he was doing and what is great is that he gave me a lot of great advice on photographing people.
He needed new headshots for his portfolio. While the picture above is not a headshot, it definitely is one of my favorites.
Turns out that cloudy days can make for the perfect light.
It was probably not a good idea to go out that night considering I was semi-recovered and had an early AM photoshoot the next day. But after a pitcher of Margaritas and Martini’s at Blondie’s with Katrina, Katie and Elaine, I was feeling a lot better to go meet more girls at a dance club. Weird how alcohol does that.
Anway, it was Anna’s birthday and she decided to have it at Supperclub. What is so awesome about this club? Its not the music (because it SUCKED), but its the fact that its huge and it has Beds all over the place. Yes, beds. Although, a club full of beds and drunk people doesn’t really sound like it would mix well does it?
Little sister Cindy was busy this weekend too.
1st place at Regionals.
Soon they will take over and outdance every other team at State.
CONGRATS HERMANA!!!!!!
It was a pretty nice day.
Went to get a haircut and shop around the Castro.
and make myself sicker. Had lunch with Katrina and Marcela at Catch in the Castro.
Delicious, but the drinks are a tad overpriced.
Not really sure I have the energy to go out tonight.
Not feeling well and I have an early photoshoot in the morning (unless something comes up).
Oh well, nothing Dayquil and Nyquil can’t fix!!
WOOT!
Is that you learn all these sweet photoshop moves that make your pictures that much crisper and sharper.
I also LOVE these Kubota photoshop actions I recently got.
So. Awesome.
And it makes things so much quicker and simpler.
Although the lovenest that is Briana and Michael make me even sicker.
Hopefully I am 100 percent by Sunday because I have a shoot with a Musician.
I hope I don’t blow it.
In line at Subway
Woman: You are the most gorgeous Indian Man I have ever met. You perfect skin color and eyes! What part of India is your family from?
Me: Actually, I am Mexican.
Woman: Noooooooooooo you are definitely Indian. I can see it in your eyes.
Me: No, seriously my family is from Mexico. Jalisco and Sonora.
Woman: Wow….well you look OK as Mexican, you look better as Indian. Maybe you are half Indian! My nieces would want to marry you.
Me: I don’t even know how to respond to that.
Woman: You speak Hindi?
Me: That was never an official language in Mexico.
Woman: So you really Mexican?
Me: Yes…..
Woman: Oh. Sad.
