Random thoughts

Hey don’t you think avril lavigne is just a little too much like Madonna?

Her latest single is called DON’T TELL ME, released just 2 years after Madonna released the single DON’T TEL ME. They both have international sucuess…and they’re both…like…girls…

V2- yeah totally dood!

And Here You Thought This Blog Was Dead…

It took wordpress almost 60 seconds (that’s like hours in internet time) to load the “write a new post” for this blog, probably because I almost forgot about it.

I was thinking how great it would be to have a place on the net where I can catalog cool places I’ve visited in the city.

I had an interview with Icelandic electronic pop group Mum last week at a cozy cafe in Shibuya called Colabo Cafe. It seemed like a great place to get lost in a book on a rainy day and escape things for awhile. It looks like you can rent the cafe for days at a time, so might not be the best place to just ‘drop in” to. They have (what seems like) a frequently updated schedule on their website, so check it foo!

PS. Happy 2008!
