Such A Good Influence

Every morning when I wake up, I look at the pictures of this book and it really helps me become more motivated towards my dreams. To look at their fabulous, fortune life and be able to socialize with fashion legends such as Karl Lagerfeld and Diane Von Fustenburg, it's pretty awesome to see how they really are through a book. It feels like you were there when the interview took place. Your also able to see how they get inspired for their great fashion sense. For those who haven't seen it or read it, you should check it out. It's a great visual and text book.

About Time

This long over due. A book from Kanye West, especially a "Glow in The Dark" book that is based on last year's amazing tour. I just want lots of photos like these. It'll be an interesting book, I doubt Kanye would give us something with a lot of text. 

"Kanye West: Glow in the Dark will chronicle Kanye's journeys around the world as he tours and hits up fashion parties. Photographer Nabil Elderkin also captured him shopping in Asian malls. The book will come with a USB drive of previously unreleased music and will cost $50."

1/9 Movie Releases

Later on today, I will be going to the movie theatres to watch these two movies! I love Clint Eastwood and he's a great actor so I'm sure this movie will meet my high expectations. Plus, I heard this is his last movie... If that rumor is true, then I'm sadden by it but he does deserve a good break.

Anyone who knows me... Should know by now that I'm a huge Che Guevara fan. I grew up admiring him since I was really young because of my dad. I've read two books about him and the more I learned about him, my admiration for him expanded. I've been waiting for this movie for over a year! Also, it's directed by Steven Soderbergh. I already know it's going to be an awesome movie! Plus, my twin Catalina Sandino Moreno is in it. In high school, I would always get told that we look alike. I still get that comment! *Until this day, I don't think we have any physical similarities.

The books I've heard about Che were "Manifesto: Three Classic Ways To Change The World" and "Exposing the Real Che Guevara: And the Useful Idiots Who Idolize Him". Like Santata said, "Che may be dead for you, but he lives in our hearts.. Che is all about love and compassion."

I know this is random but does anyone remembering watching Jay-Z performance on MTV Unplugged in 2001?
