Pure Brilliance!!!

Check out this video: "Blue" - The Birthday Massacre



Add to My Profile | More Videos


I love this song, and the video, it reminds me my old house, where I grew up. I used to be a very gothic dark little creature on my own. I used to poke my dolls' eyes, cut their hair and rip off their cute little dresses to put some of my chemises instead of those beautiful little dresses that they came from. I usually cut their hair (very badly) and they looked really freaky. To the point my brother was scared of them.

Why did I do it?

1. I used to cut their hair because I thought it grew back like mine's. (my grandma asked my why? when I was about 4 or 5 years old. I clearly remember it. I remember what I said.

2. I poked the eyes of some of my dolls because I wanted to know what was inside. But when I found out something very dark was inside I never did it again.

3. I did change their clothes because I wanted to be more like me... at that age I usually wore only undergarment clothes at home.... I still don't like dresses. They are so uncomfortable.. You literally have to take care of every single side of it! It is so annoying!!!! to much attention for just a silly garment! I want to be free of movement. Does that make sense????


I used to put all my "adapted to Lucia dolls" over my bed and my brother and I slept on the same room sometimes. He was so scared of them. I never understood why. Until today. Even though he explained me it was because of an episode of "night Gallery" (galeria nocturna) where a doll used to suck blood out of the people at this huge mansion. hehehe very scary. I'm glad I didn't watch that episode. oh! and the looks of all of them, all messed up, very shocking... but I just liked them because they were perfect for me, more like me, more "casual" hehehe :Op...

I guess my aesthetics are completely different from normal people.

The Story of the Two Wolves

One day an old Native American grandfather was talking to his grandson. He said, "There are two wolves fighting inside all of us - the wolf of fear and hate, and the wolf of love and peace."


The grandson listened, then looked up at his grandfather and asked, "Which one will win?"


The grandfather replied, "The one we feed."

Búscame Sergio y Estíbaliz.



wooow, how should I start? how long is it been? 20 years? yes, 20 years that my quest to find this song started. It was around 20 years ago that I heard the song for the first and only time. But... it was so beautiful.. it was one of those songs that sticks inside your soul forever. this was when I was probably like 4 or 5 years old.
Thanks to my elephant memory I did remember all this years the lyrics... sometimes I had to concentrate so hard to get the song out of my old memories. But there it was... all the time... replaying in my memory everytime I wanted! :O) :OP for my own and private pleasure... Until one day... I was traveling from Tampico to Monterrey by bus and I THERE IT WAS! the bus driver, who always plays music when driving, put a cd on this stereo (I was traveling on seat #3 as usually, hence I could hear all the song)

and I couldn't believe it! it was the song!!! that mysterious song, I almost thought at moments it was kind of a dream... I mean, all this years, passed by and never knew who sang it and what year it was! nothing! I search for it on the net many years after, just to find out another girl with the same problem, as strange as it was she remembered the song and lyrics although she only heard it once! JUST LIKE ME!
anyways here I was, in shock, petrified and I couldn't even dare to ask the bus driver what song it was because I was afraid to stop listening to that song!
it was just too shocking!!!!

after the song finished I promised to myself I will find out who sings that song. And I also thought that probably the bus driver didn't know because I remembered him saying those cds where burned and that a friend of him, lend his CD collection for the road. ouch!
so there I was for the second time in my life, after so many years after, listening to that beautiful song again.

That song reminds me of my childhood, my grandma, the movie matinee about scary themes like The eeeend of the woorrrrlllddd uuuuuuuhhhh!!!
hehehe :Op
me just climbing to an orange tree and staying there all afternoon at my father's ranch. And watching my grandma looking for me while I was hidden on top of the tree, when it was begining to get dark. I never liked dresses because of my free spirit always looking for adventures at the forest, ranch, plantations and everything that sounded like nature!... I used to wear only a white little t-shirt and navy blue shorts although I do have an ugly scar on my knee. As a kid I had long hair, always kept in a pony tail and bangs or fringe over my forehead :O) which I managed to keep until today ;O)
The pony tail and my beautiful hair is gone because it was too painful to brush!! It was simply too long: below my waist. :OS
painful when you're a child!

oh well, it was until today I found the song and the name of the song thanks to youtube... just today I got all that eerie feeling from my childhood
weird but very very happy. And happy to find it again!

Love driving and love this song!
This remind me my University days, when I used to drive back and forth from Monterrey to Tampico. Driving my red 300zx Oooh boy. Or when I felt uneasy and just took my car and drive along the super highway to Texas, at the maximun speed!!! feeling the freedom of driving!


By the way, the view I had, it was exactly the same! it was so great!
Makes me wanna go and get my car! (is still sitting in my garage! ;O)

TIME - PINK FLOYD.



God! all my deepest fears lying under the ink of this song. So deep.
I knew it back then, @ Cafe Iguana.
Just the memory of walking around that little bar it used to be.
with my dark clothes, my black dress, my black Dr. Marteens boots.
those days went by like sand over my hands.
But even then, I was aware how fast my life was running out of time.

It is the only thing I can't scape: TIME.

INDEED THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK OF MY LIFE.

I WILL NEVER FORGET THOSE YEARS, I WILL CHERISH THEM FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY.


Home, home again,
And when I come home cold and tired
Its good to warm my bones beside the fire


My Home right now is in Vancouver,
-that's exactly the feeling
every single night
I come back home.

The Doors y el gran Jimbo. -Break on Through



I don't have to break on through, I AM The Other Side.

DEPECHE MODE RULES
MONTERREY CITY HERE I COMEEEEE!!!!!!

I'm going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make you mine
It is written in the stars above
The gods decree
You'll be right here by my side
Right next to me
You can run, but you cannot hide

Don't say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without me
I know you can't be
'cause it's no good

I'll be fine
I'll be waiting patiently
Till you see the signs
And come running to my open arms
When will you realise
Do we have to wait till our worlds collide
Open up your eyes
You can't turn back the tide

Don't say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without me
I know you can't be
'cause it's no good

I'm going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make you mine
It is written in the stars above

Don't say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without me
I know you can't be
'cause it's no good

FOBIA RULES

Fobia - El Diablo



it's FOBIA!!!
THE DEFINITIVE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!
FOBIA RULES!!!!!!!
THE First time I heard his songs, I really dig them, it was just a pirate analog tape in the middle of the nineties in Mexico (Made at home or probably bought at the CHOPO MARKET),but my cousin play it for me to see my reaction without knowing who they were!! right choice for a musician!!! I just loved them! then after several months I saw a poster of them, but I was so hookep up with their music!
No matter if they become so old, like this video, where their parents play the instruments of theirs songs, I'll still be a true a true fan of their music! PERIOD!!!
it's SO MAGICAL! JUST AS SIMPLE AS THAT. IT ENCAPSULATES THE FEELING OF A GENERATION AS MINE!
THESE ARE THE THINGS I'LL MISS WHEN I'M DEAD. FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!

My birthday

Today is my birthday, and it entered with tons of works (it's 2:36 am and still working on the editing suite). VIFF 2006 is here and that's exciting news. I really really want to see Pedro Almodovar's Volver, but I don't know if I can make it :OS. For some reason I think the Opening Gala will be full before I can even buy a ticket.

Once again, a lot of movies to watch in so little time. This year I am working even more than last year. Which is a little bit annoying... but I had to put food over my humble table.
I saw the new Chabrol's film I think it was good but the ending was a little bit dissapointing. The Riddle was a great and fun movie to watch! highly recommended.

Mark agreed to work with me on the production company and that's a relief! but I really don't know if he really enjoy the job. Hopefully he will come back for the next work. Still I am worried. I was his camera assistant years ago. Great guy and definetly a great DOP.

Itinerante Productions Inc. started this year in Vancouver and already has clients, that's a good sign and good enough for now. El Kiosko is poorer but it is still too early. It is like a child for me, so forget it IT IS NOT COMING DOWN! A few years ago when I was driving my car and thinking over a beautiful brigde in Monterrey city (on my way home) I realize I had to study film and keep going with my life. Last year, I was driving over the same brigde with my very same car and thinking exactly the same, obviously the conclution was still the same... if I ever get sick or old there is no other way: I'll just keep walking, just keep going... I'll go as far as I can.

I am getting really sick because of all the work. But doesn't matter... I have to keep going. VIFF is here and at least I can enjoy watching movies and work to make a living on what I love.

I was the first female video jockey and I used to love to play this song... I can't forget those years. U2 is part of the Original Soundtrack of my Life. And Win Wenders, of course is one of my favorite directors... Favorite movie? Wings of Desire of course!...

It was, it is and always be: Wing of Desire.

a/k/a Tommy Chong

I've just finished watching a/k/a Tommy Chong, finally I know why it was one of the most popular films at VIFF 2005, too bad I was working when it was screened :Op

But it's coming back to the VIFC www.vifc.org

I'll write the review... I was going to say tomorrow, but IT IS already tomorrow! Yikes! :OS
