We do not expect people to be deeply moved by what it not unusual... If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is on the other side of silence.

Random Photos for the Month of May 2008

I know I haven't been updating but here are some pictures that were taken during the month of May I thought was pretty random. I'll be on vacation so I wont be updating for awhile. Here are the places I'll be in Europe for the next week and a half or so:

London
Rome
Florence
Venice
Milan
Luzern
Paris
Brussels
Amsterdam

Enjoy the pictures!

I was at a travel agency picking up the vacation itinerary and happened to come across this poster of a province in Thailand. It's pronounced "poo-ket" but thats not what came to my mind at first lol.


















Well I never would've thought that this corner on Baxter and Canal in Chinatown would close down but apparently it has and the reason is for safety measures....








An old Chinese superstition is that if you make 1,000 paper cranes, your wish will come true...








The pictures speak for itself lol.









Was walking around in Chinatown when I saw an elementary school kid doing his HW on the sidewalk next to his parent's newstand...









Haven't seen old school Vespas in awhile...










And for the last photo... while picking up Jeff from Penn State, came across this truck. It's just asking for a kidnapping to happen lol.



See you all when I get back !
