been listening to this amazing uk band all week...

i heart burning man (BM)

it's that time of the year and a friend who i met there wrote me recently, which reminded me of why i love and miss burning man so much. below are pictures my dearest friend holly took of our first BM (2008) trip. oh how i miss... the 10-hour whiteouts (not really), cycling in the dessert, watching the sunrise, walking around in a tutu and rain boots...

thank you

i found out the best way to deal with breakup and shed heartache was to celebrate it (with champagne)... which i happily did last night.

many thank yous to my friends for all their sweet advice, reminding me of who i am, and giving me hope. love you.

p.s. below are bits and pieces of advice, quoted from friends (boys).

santigold: i'm a lady (benny blanco remix)

yael naim: pachad (fear)



a dim fear cover the eyes
I want you to wait for him alone
connecting my hands, and tell me to ask
give me a hand
want you to folding to him
want you to wait for him forever
white courage pushing me into the water
want you to get wet
come to me
shining the skies for me
give me a hand, want you to try by yourself
this is the time that you will bloom forever
swim alone now, he says
want you to bloom forever
its time that you figure out who you are
give me a hand
give me a hand

give me a hand, want you to try by yourself
this is the time that you will bloom forever
swim alone now, he says
want you to bloom forever
its time that you figure out who you are
who are you?
who are you?
who are you?

you
