a drink with jam and bread...

seattle is officially the coolest city on the face of the planet. 13-year-old Eric Martin has liver cancer and he has always wanted to be a superhero. The make-a-wish foundation and the city of Seattle made that wish come true:

You guys, I was SOBBING. So amazing. read the full story in the Seattle Times. (I really love that the section heading for the story is "Living").

ten ten ten

wow.

I know I'm on a little video spree but...this project looks amazing. A great statement of how interconnected we truly are. Visit One Day on Earth. I appreciate that they focus on the everyday, good and bad things, just a snapshot of the history of humanity. I really want to go do some somersaults through the grass right now.

Everywhere

One thing that has been on my life list forever: join a flash mob

I was just watching the T-mobile "life is for sharing" ads. Now THAT is advertising I can get behind.



Also improv everywhere is super cool. Their mission is to create silly situations with large groups of people for the simple purpose of making people laugh or smile (or cry tears of joy during every video like me). World peace people. I'm telling you.

what a wonderful world

"For seventeen days, they are roommates.
For seventeen days, they are soulmates.
And for twenty-two seconds, they are competitors.
Seventeen days as equals. Twenty-two seconds as adversaries.
What a wonderful world that would be.
That's the hope I see in the Olympic Games."

Changing the world

Ahh! These videos make me so happy.

These stairs are in Stockholm. I wonder if they're still there?
One of my dear friends will be in Sweden for spring break, I've sent her on a quest to find them!


Look how excited everyone gets!



hehe! These projects are part of The Fun Theory, by Volkswagen. Makes me proud to drive a Jetta!

I love the whole world...

And in response to yesterday's post:

More reasons why I can't wait to travel the world.

Thanks for the awesome commercial Discovery Channel!

where are you going?

I can't believe I haven't posted this yet!
Where the hell is Matt?

Matt is this guy who travels the world and gets video footage of himself (and sometimes other people) dancing like a maniac. It's so silly yet so cool!

He's been doing it for a few years now. Check it out, it will make you smile.
Or if you're a sap like me, it will make you cry out of joy.
Dancing, laughter and smiles are universal.
It's reasons like this that I want to travel the world and experience life.
