Une geekette à Paris

This post is a list of the odd things people throw away here in Paris. Every morning I wake up and I take my way to the Tube station, every morning I take pictures of the odd things I find abandoned on the street.

Aladin would not be very happy about this…

Green door

Yes, it’s not hot in Paris, but this is not a reason to set you free from a fan!

R.I.P.

There’s a great gap dividing two solitary soulmates.

They meet and like. They are similar. They love each other, but they love their solitude as well.They feel good when they can waste time, when they can decide what to do without thinking of the other. And that’s a great problem when we a relationship is involved.

Well the gap can be filled may be, despite one thousands kilometers. How?

Thought. Thought is the most powerful element. It is always with us, we cannot stop thinking, and as a consequence, soulmates cannot stop thinking of each other. Yes it’s a game of resistance, because nobody’s going to tell how much they are missing each other, because this would mean they had to renounce their solitary life.

Music. I think Music, can hit, and reach the heart. Music can communicate, music can tell a lot. And shared music is a helpful element to understand how the people are feeling. When you know your soulmate listens to songs of solitude, of abandon, of love…well there’s a good chance that he is thinking of you. 

Social Networks. Maybe this is quite trivial, but I think that all relationship nowadays are influeced by social networks. Social networks are our grip to control other people live’s. And you cannot wait to check if the person you are interested in has updated his status, or check the profile of the person he is now friend with. Want to know where he is? check his check ins. 

By the way… you can spend your life just wondering what soulmate is doing.. but this is not living a relationship. This is just losing time… 

So please, go outside and meet new people! Don’t waste time.

Live your life!

The Gardener XLVI: You Left Me

There’s always a sense of thrill before the show to start. When the dsow is the famous musical titled “Priscilla queen of the desert” the thrill is even stronger! A story of Drag Queens crossing the Australian desert, from Sidney to Alice spring, on a pink airbus called Priscilla. A kind of modern bildungsroman of three friends who share their passion for spectacular costumes, sparkling make up and deadly high heels shoes.The main characters are a young boy (Felicia), a father (Tick) and an old trans (Bernadette).

The show is pure energy! And the people absorb it as sponge and spread it out by singing and dancing as well.

The drama of prejudice and the impossibility of integrating are well explained in a sort of cinical word game between the old Bernadette and the young Felicia. Dialogues are, in fact, often strong and coarse, but the youngest audience seemed not to care about it.

Though, the trip will lead the characters to the acceptance of the human being prejudices about Trans and homosexual people, the end is instead a kind of releaf. Tick’s son, in fact, is the proof that innocent minds are not involved in stupid prejudices, but only care about the love they have and the one they need, even when it belongs to a drag queen father.

Priscilla queen of desert shows us how to be happy in spite of other people opinions about us.

And what is more, it teaches us how to feel real women just by wearing deadly hihg heel shoes!!! Girl power!

29 WAYS TO STAY CREATIVE from TO-FU on Vimeo.

Once upon a time, there was a Little Star. She lived in the milky way. She wandered,she laughed, played and joked. She knew one thousand stars living with her in the milky way. She was small, but shined a lot, and everybody stared at her as she was the brightest star in the sky. She looked happy, she had all she could desire, but very often, at sunrise, when she was alone and the other stars could not see her, she darkened and became sad and nothing could make her laugh.

One day, she looked down. There was a wood, covered by the snow. But looking deeper in the wood, she saw a bear. He was all alone looking at the sky and counting the stars. There was one star that most of all arouse his curiosity. He had already seen her the other nights, those long nights of solitude, and wondered why she shined so much. Bear was shy, introvert, suspicious, and could not understand why he was so interested in a Little Star. Two single beings, so different, so far.

Every night Bear was there, in the wood, looking for little star. Every night Little Star was there, in her milky way, looking for Bear. Their eyes shined one to the other, but neither he nor she, made a sign or a kind act. They spent the nights staring at each other, and when the sun went up, they both went to sleep. It was so beautiful to wait for sunset that this had become the best moment of the day. The dark night to look into eachother eyes. Bear was shy, but wanted to know her, Little Star was unafraid, but she feared a new world. One day Bear tried to build a stair to reach Little Star, but the attempt failed and Bear fell to the floor. “Poor Bear” thought Little Star watching Bear falling down. Another day Bear tried to fly, but his plane could not fly so high. At last, he tried with a spaceship and that was the way he could invite Little Star to have dinner with him. She wore a beautiful red dress, he wore an elegant black top hat. Around them the firmament. They danced among the stars, fluttering in the silence of the universe and enlighting the sky with sparkling light. But soon the moment of goodbye arrived, and it was so sad to say hallo because their hearts were beating stronger and they felt so happy. Then winter arrived, clouds covered the sky, it was impossible to see through. Every night, Little Star could hear Bear, in his wood, cry and say her name. It was very cold, but Bear didn’t care, and spent the nights hoping that the sky suddenly split. This is how, Little Star, while pushing herself down, went out her orbit and became a falling star.

That was the brightest wake in the last one thousand years. Little star was scared, she thought she was going to crash, but fortunately, she fell on the soft snow. When she opened her eyes, Bear was there. He had seen her falling.

“How are you, Little Star?” whispered he.

“Well, Bear, I think”.

“I carry you home, it’s so cold here, I will give you some hot milk”

Many days later, they realized they had to live together, they could not do without eachother. Not only was the night beautiful, but also the day and each single moment of their life. Everyday had a different light. Little Star enlightened Bear’s days, Bear gladdened Little Star’s ones. The wood had become their reign, and their house a castle…

This is where Care Bears come from…
