Happy Birthday Lauren!






Sunday night I went to Lauren's birthday party. We went to Ayza on 31st, which is this classy wine/chocolate bar. It was absolutely lovely, but even lovelier than the atmosphere was the great company. After Ayza, two of Danielle's friends showed up and we walked to Angels and Kings, where we were told it was lesbian night. there were like 5 people at the bar. How come gay bars area always so packed, but lesbian bars are few and far between? Anyway, we sat and hung in our group for a while and then Danielle's friends left and Jason showed up with his friend Amanda. We left lesbian night and walked somewhere for kareoke. Crista and Danielle left and the rest of us sang a shitload of kareoke. I did Torn-Natalie Imbruglia, Darling Nikki - Prince, The Denial Twist - The White Stripes....I could go on. It was a long night. We sorta closed the bar.

On our way home we stopped for Apple Jacks and candles so Lauren could blow them out. We then came home, took a music video of us dancing to Mika, Jason dyed his and my hair and then me and lauren started on some collaging. All in all a great night. i woke up feeling like crap though.

Topless Collage Roomie Night



Oh yes. I just had the most fun. Kristen and I each made a big piece for the living room! (Mine is the one on the bottom) I forget how therapeutic it is to do culture jamming.

Culture Jamming:
"At its best, culture jamming homes in on the flip side of those branded emotions, and refocuses them, so that they aren't replaced with a craving for the next fashion or pop sensation but turn, slowly, on the process of branding itself." (p.288)

"The most sophisticated culture jams are not stand-alone ad parodies but interceptions-counter-messages that hack into a corporation's own method of communication to send a message starkly at odds with the one that was originally intended." (p.281)
