Whitney Biennial 2006

Hit or miss, as I expected. The " Caligula" movie trailer remake and the 911 impossible projection were the best by far. It's amazing what's considered art these days.

I didn't forget

The American Idol play-by-play synopsis is coming up later this weekend. Just too much to write about it right now. Overall, I'd have to say the best TV I've ever seen.

Oh yeah, and Nelly Furtado's "Promiscuous"

I love the Dixie Chicks!!!

Specifically "Lullaby" and "Not Ready to Make Nice".

Graduation

I'm not officially graduating till August, but I walked in the ceremony this past Sunday. Other than the lame address to graduates, it was pretty great. My family wasn't there, but a few friends of mine came. I love you guys, you know who you are. Thanks Dmitry for being my b*&#^ and carrying my stuff around, taking pics, etc. Thanks Patrick for the loud screams in that ever so quiet Avery Fisher Hall. Thanks Lara for being my stand in Jewish mom. And thanks Jim aka $mall Change for being you. MySpace Top 4 baby!

I changed my mind?

Katherine did not bring it tonight. Taylor did. I just don't think she wants it bad enough, but I give her props for taking risks.

Jack Bauer never gets a break!

And then there were 3...

I'm still 100% sure that Katherine McPhee is going to win. When she's bad, she's very bad, but when she's good, boy is she good. She's so inconsistent, but I can't help but watch her. She has presence.

When the other guys sing, I tune out. Feels like I'm watching a lounge act. I guess I have to agree with Simon most of the time. Although, I usually love me some white boy soul.

Oddly enough music man Clive Davis did a really bad job of picking songs, which didn't help matters much. Paula's half here, half lost comments bore me. Somebody's taking too many happy pills.

I just got a DVR about a week ago. Instead of making my life more efficient, it's making me a slave to TV.

Yankees/Oakland Game 5.12.06

Went to a game as part of Senior Week for school. Started a full wave AND got some peanut-throwing punks thrown out of the game!

Edvard Munch

I checked out the Edvarch Munch exhibit in it's last few days at the MoMa. Here are some of my favorites (Separation, The Day After, The Kiss III (woodcut), and Madonna III). If you haven't checked it out, go while you still can this weekend:

David Blaine in the Bubble

David Blaine waved at me today, as I'm sure he waved at every girl he's seen while inhabiting his blue bubble. I have to say, he is THE hottest magician I've ever had the pleasure of placing my eyes upon. I remember seeing David Copperfield live once, and his tight plastic tan frightened me.

I will be DVRing the special on Monday night, as I just picked up my new DVR today! I might even head on over a few blocks away from my class on Monday night to check out the end of the festivities in person.
