COLD SOULS



This movie looks great. I first heard about it when a friend of a boyfriend of a friend (who worked on the trailer) told me about it. It looks so unique and fantastic. Plus Paul Giamatti rules! Go to the Cold Souls site to see when it's playing near you!

DEAD SNOW



Last week my boyfriend and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary. We happened to be in Chicago that weekend looking for our new apartment. We were super excited because Dead Snow was coming out that weekend in Chicago! This is just another way we aren't a traditional couple....we went to see Dead Snow for our anniv. It's basically a Norwegian nazi-zombie comedy/horror film and it's AMAZING. If you're at all a film of zombie movies (which I definitely am) then I highly recommend you go out and see it. It's only playing in very select cities, so look around to see if it's playing near you!

BAGGU




I know Baggu is totally old news by now, but in case it's not I'd like to preach the Baggu gospel. I've been pretty frustrated lately with all the "green"shopping bags with their cheesy slogans. They've made going green such an obvious trend. Now virtually everyone is selling the alternative eco friendly shopping bag. You can find them pretty much everywhere now, which is totally a good thing. I'm just a little fed up with the design of most of these bags. All I want is a simple bag, no print, but looks great. BAGGU! Baggu comes in many different sizes, patterns and colors. My boyfriend who's been baggu-ing for quite some time has been urging me to switch to Baggu over the terrible bags I'd been using.

The problem for me is that I usually keep my green bags in the car and have to rely on remembering to bring them in when I shop somewhere. I don't. I always forget! I feel so terrible and most of the time I say "no bag please" at checkout and then have to leave the store with things falling out of my arms. Getting to the important part, Baggu compacts into a little bag making it super easy to fit in your purse or pocket. Anywho, enough of my preaching. Below is a pretty Baggu commercial of sorts. Enjoy.

Nakagin Capsule Tower





For those of you who watched Tokyo! you may have noticed this building in the first film Interior Design. This is the Nakagin Capsule Tower. Completed in 1972, this building hosts both residential and office use. Each cube measures only 2.3m x 3.8m x 2.1m. Unfortunately this building has not been kept up and has a lot of asbestos issues. I've heard on many blogs that it will be torn down any day now. So sad, it's such a beauty!

Thanks Picture!
