Marshall: what's the truth in your heart?

me: the truth of my heart, marshall
is that
there is no truth
no truth at all
it is a false heart
a vain and shallow heart
that cares only for itself
it is false, it is selfish.
it is of no consequence.

Marshall: you've just come back from bible camp haven't you?

Best Mix Tape Evaaaah

2008-12-14T22:17:00.000-08:00

Picture this:

Sunday morning. We're in bed. You're reading the Times aloud to me as I spread marmalade over a piece of toast for you. We discuss all the things we need to do that morning with the full knowledge that none of those things will get done because the entire morning will be spent talking/whispering/giggling/staring at each other in bed.

And, all the while, this mix will be playing at a clearly audible but non-intrusive volume.

The Plan

2008-12-06T22:43:00.000-08:00

While researching engagement rings for a friend I came across Doyle and Doyle for the first time. They specialize in vintage and estate pieces that are hand picked for their collection. And oh, what a collection. I've already found every significant piece of jewelery I'll ever need to be given on their website.

They are as follows:

The Promise Ring - to be given to me on our one year anniversary.

The Engagement Ring - after a minimum of two years, pls.

The Wedding Band - for our special day. but only if we can find a matching one for you. if not, we'll go with the tendrement bands from van cleef and arpels, kay?

You fuckin bastard. You need to die. At the very least you need to simply drop dead and cease to exist. At the most you need to suffer the most excruciatingly painful death imaginable over and over again for eternity.

I hate you.

I wish I had arrived 10 minutes earlier. I would have run you over with my car.

Turnaround

2008-11-14T23:35:00.000-08:00

What's the average turnaround time for this? I was doing pretty well; I thought I was done. There were moments where I pictured a whole world of opportunity available to me. And I'm not talking about some world of the future and opportunity in a general sense. I mean the world TODAY and NOW and SPECIFIC opportunities that, if I let go of my insecurities for a moment, I believe are within my reach. And then, the tiniest of things, and all of a sudden I'm back at square one.

Nothing to do but to start all over from the beginning I suppose.

Goodness. What a week.

Namecalling

2008-11-07T20:32:00.000-08:00

4. Dismissive

Since Nobody Seems to Get It.

2008-10-27T20:33:00.001-07:00

So I'm deciding whether to name my new iMac "Seven of Nine" or "Number Six."

Most of you don't have any idea what I'm talking about.

So, to keep it simple, look at the picture below and tell me which chick is hotter.

Left or Right will suffice.

Thank you for voting!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME FTW

2008-10-25T22:19:00.000-07:00

yeeeeeah...jealous much?

i have so much work to get done this weekend and i was getting so frustrated with my notebook so i just got up and went to the apple store.

whatever. i did the right thing. the AMERICAN thing. it was my PATRIOTIC DUTY to buy a new computer and help the ailing economy.

but, seriously, this huge LED screen is so bright, even on the lowest setting, and it's hurting my eyes and i cant even see the entire screen at once it's so friggen huge. need to get a deeper desk. and a herman miller. and that little desktop metal ball thing that demonstrates the conservation of energy. then my home office tableau would be complete and perfect.

That time of year...

2008-10-19T21:11:00.000-07:00

It's my birthday.

I'm single.

I'm living at home.

I'm depressed.

For goodness sake, buy me some Pita Chips. And by "Pita Chips" I mean "Diamond Snowflake Pendant."

Dear Eric Anderson,

2008-10-19T00:12:00.000-07:00

I have fallen in love with you.

Marry me.

This offer is contingent upon whether you look as good clean shaven.

Excerpted

2008-10-16T19:19:00.000-07:00

In an email I received today:
i dont kno if you kno this or not
but ur bday is next month

In a Facebook chat conversation I had today:
i like your style
i like your class
but best of all
i like your ass
;-P

How I ended an email I sent today:
just ignore this email.
i didnt say anything.
this never happened.

A voice in my head and a song on my heart.

2008-10-11T22:36:00.000-07:00

So I've talked to a few people recently about how powerful and alarmingly effective AND affective the act of singing a song for someone can really be. And by "people" I mean "guys" and by "someone" I mean "women."

Playing a song over a boom box outside her bedroom window will get you a date to the prom but SINGING her a song whilst accompanying yourself on a guitar?

::whistles::

You don't even have to be that good.
Pick a song and learn it to the best of your ability. You'll thank me for it later.

And in case you want to know:

I was driving home from work tonight and Ray LaMontagne's new single "You Are The Best Thing" came on the radio. I thought to myself...if a guy performed this song for me in earnest and then asked me to marry him, I'd have a helluva hard time saying "no."

So...You Are The Best Thing.
Sing it to me (preferably in Ray's soulful and gravely voice) and I'm yours for the keeping.

If only I could get these from EVERYONE, EVERYDAY.

2008-10-01T16:12:00.000-07:00

...starting a new job next week, which im looking forward to.

im looking forward to moving forward. to change.

ONWARD HO!
HUZZAH!

And now, I think, it begins.

2008-09-30T21:31:00.000-07:00

Last night was excruciating. I'm trying to steel myself for tonight. It wasn't so bad before but, for whatever reason, it is now.

Have you ever felt this way? Have you ever felt the entire weight of your own consciousness turn into and upon itself? It is crushing. It is debilitating.

There is nothing I can do about it except wait it out.

Time, they say, heals all wounds. Time is the panacea for all ills such as these, such as mine.

I need a distraction. I need ~~something~~ someone to make me forget.

I need a lobotomy.

I need a hole in my head.

I disgust even myself sometimes. These times.

Sunrise

2008-09-23T20:17:00.000-07:00

I never feel more lonely than I do at sunrise. I don't know what it is about watching the sky slowly turning from black to blue and seeing the sunlight break through the shop window and driving home into in the bright glare from the East that makes me so acutely aware and painfully conscious of my state of alone-ness.

Although, if I really thought about it, nights are no better.

Brad

2008-09-07T16:04:00.000-07:00

Sam J., one of my fave photo bloggers, snapped some photos of Brad Pitt at the Toronto Film Festival.

Brad may be all tired and worn and 45 years old but dammit he's still got it.

Cake

2008-09-03T21:38:00.000-07:00

For reasons I can't fathom, I am head over heels in love with these Martha Stewart Whiteware Cake Stands. They're just so perfect. And cheap! Ranging from 14.99-29.99, I can make my own three tier cupcake tower for about $70 bucks plus cupcakes!

Dream

2008-09-03T16:38:00.000-07:00

I dreamt that I had ended up marrying him and, of course, it didn't work out and it had only been five years and I said to him, "Are we seriously going to be just another statistic?" and he didn't say anything and I slumped to the floor, sobbing.

Under the Nebraskan Sky

2008-08-05T19:34:00.000-07:00

Just returned from a week in Nebraska. I have to say, it was quite charming. It was wonderful getting to make new friends and catching up with old ones. It was just what I needed. Seeing James and Cady so much in love warmed my cold, cold heart and I am ashamed to admit that I cried on multiple occasions.

Then there's Carla's wedding this Friday.

STOP GETTING MARRIED, PEOPLE! My heart can't take it!

Stopover

2008-07-28T09:24:00.000-07:00

I'm finally heading back to Atlanta!

Too bad I will only be there for three hours and stuck in Hartsfield Jackson International Airport.

But, if you want to brave traffic to see me, I will be in the Atrium between terminals from 5ish to 7ish. Come and I'll take you out to dinner at Houlihan's.

Rough

2008-07-26T22:56:00.000-07:00

Cried [just a little bit] again today. That's twice in two days. WTF.

I don't know why I'm in such a fragile state of mind this week. Can't wait 'til I'm in Nebraska celebrating in the joy of others instead of wallowing in my own misery.

Which reminds me: I leave Tuesday and I need a dress.

I had forgotten...

2008-07-25T20:00:00.000-07:00

...but now I remember what it feels like. Only I don't think it's ever been quite like this before.

Chillin.

I also love how they are listening to ADELE.

Youth

2008-07-23T19:12:00.000-07:00

Been feeling quite old lately what with teenage girls running around the house during SSoT.

Last weekend my sister and I were watching tv in the basement and we came upon Ghostbusters.

"What is this?"

"Ghostbusters."

"What's Ghostbusters?"

"You know, Ghostbusters."

"..."

"When there's something strange in the neighborhood..."

"..."

"Who ya gonna call?"

"..."

"Ghostbusters!"

"I don't get it."

My sister has never heard of nor seen Ghostbusters in any of its permutations. It blew my mind.

And of course, while watching Ghostbusters, we saw a tv spot for the new X files movie and it has a narrator saying something like "...together again" and my sister asked me "What do they mean 'again?'"

I had to explain to her that the X-Files was a television series and that this was the second film.

I spent the next few minutes pondering what else my sister did not know about.

2008-07-12T10:47:00.001-07:00

I just saw the teaser for Quantum of Solace and noticed that it comes out on my birthday.

Daniel Craig. Now that would be one fine birthday present.

The Night Before Last

2008-06-30T08:05:00.000-07:00

I'm at [a young] David Hyde Pierce's apartment and there's a party. We play fun games. People leave. It's just me and David. We sit on this weird modern design piece of a couch and I lay my head in his lap as we watch TV.

Oh look! I say. Frasier is on.

Yay Taco!

2008-06-27T15:31:00.001-07:00

I finally caved and bought the Yay Taco shirt from shirt woot. Imma totally rock it.

The Shutter Perfect Photography Street Team...

2008-06-23T14:22:00.000-07:00

...is now recruiting!

Do you love Shutter Perfect Photography?
Do you love Maryanne Ku?
Do you love spreading commercial propaganda to your friends and colleagues?
Do you carry a piece with you wherever you go and would love nothing more than to pop a cap in the ass of the competition?

If any of the above apply to you, we encourage you to join!

Deja Vu

2008-06-23T01:03:00.000-07:00

A lot of deja vu lately. I mean, a lot. Just felt it a moment ago as I was reviewing info on La Vie albums. And a few times while I was in Boston last weekend.

Soooooo odd. I hate that feeling. It's so weird and uncomfortable and I can't help but think that my soul is living the same life over and over again, trying to get it right each time but failing, doomed to try once more, again. For eternity.

well, poop.

2008-06-21T09:15:00.000-07:00

I'm pretty sure I sprained my ankle last night. I can't put any weight on my right leg.

Stoopid shoes. Stoopid paving jobs in Flushing.

I've never hurt my ankle this bad before. Do I need to go to a doctor? I don't think I do. I'll just buy some bandages at CVS and wrap it up tight. Maybe pick up a pair of crutches. I've never had to use crutches before.

This blows.

Dream

2008-06-13T08:33:00.000-07:00

Most people were dancing. There were a few, mostly women, including myself, standing on the periphery of the dance floor. It was a big crowd. Dance with me, he asked. No, I said. It wasn't until the fifth time that I agreed. He led me to a space in the center of the floor. Chris Brown came on. Dammit, I said, and I had sworn never to dance to Chris Brown.

Report!

2008-06-04T09:02:00.000-07:00

Including today's diagnostic and x-rays, if I go along with my new dentist's recommended treatment plan, my teeth will need work totaling two thousand dollars.

This is not including the recommended oral surgery to remove my wisdom teeth.

This is also not including the night guard (!) recommended to alleviate my TemporoMandibular Joint Syndrome (jaw clicking indicative of a misplaced disc).

I just got off the phone with the premier dental office in my area. I have an appointment on Wednesday. This will be the first time I've gone to a dentist in a very long time.

I'm scared.

Hold me.

2008-05-28T16:11:00.000-07:00

Josh and Megan and I went to CT to stay with Dad for one night on Sunday. When we returned, this is what I brought back with me, courtesy of Daddy.

1. Apple wireless keyboard. (The new super thin one to replace my existing and perfectly functioning Apple wireless keyboard!) $80
2. Green iPod Shuffle $50
3. Some bars of expensive cut to order Lush soaps. $70

Here is what Megan, my younger sister, scored this weekend

1. A $500 Coach handbag. (White leather, very nice, I will be borrowing it.)
2. New flats, red. $100
3. Mac Book. Black. Apple Care. $1800 ("Yes, Dad, she needs one. She's starting high school. She NEEDS one.")

Let's tally that up:

Me: $200
Megan: $2,400

I don't think I'm Daddy's favorite anymore. It's time to pass the torch. Go Megan, go!

2008-05-17T21:01:00.000-07:00

Saw this lovely bookshelf on Luxist.com. Ooooh so lovely. It would be the perfect shelf to display a pair of those Twins by Camper.

Black and White.

2008-05-08T21:01:00.001-07:00

I want these so bad it hurts inside.

Camper-Twins $160

Camper-Right $140

I think Camper is fast becoming my favourite shoe line.

Stop Me

2008-05-07T21:15:00.000-07:00

I've taken to browsing zappos.com again. Someone stop me!

But look at this yummy pair I found for only a mere sixty bucks!

Cherry Stem

2008-05-03T23:12:00.000-07:00

Tonight, over yummy sweet tamales and savory enchiladas, I successfully tied a cherry stem into a knot with my tongue for the second time in my life.

This time there is photographic evidence.

It's comin, people. It's comin.

May Have.

2008-05-01T22:01:00.000-07:00

So...I may or may not have spent nearly $1,500 today at B&H.

Well, shit.

2008-04-29T19:22:00.001-07:00

Why did none of you bitches remind me that today was free cone day at Ben and Jerry's?

Pointers

2008-04-27T22:26:00.000-07:00

I'm lookin for some pointers as to how to finagle some free premium channels from the cable guy who is coming tomorrow.

Should I have some fresh baked cupcakes out? Or should I put out my fresh baked cupcakes, if you know what I mean?

Haha, kidding.

Seriously, though, how do you swing free HBO?

P.S. I need more tissues

2008-04-27T00:45:00.000-07:00

I've gone through an entire box of tissues in less than a week. I had forgotten how bad my allergies get here in NY. I may have to considering shelling out for some Claratin or something because this is killing me.

Also, I must've gone through about 20 some odd tissues tonight alone while watching P.S. I love you. I keep crying every 5 mins. So pathetic.

But now I am out of tissues and the next time there's a scene where she flashes back to her hot, dead Irish husband I am going to have to resort to paper napkins.

You and Me at She and Him

2008-04-21T11:21:00.000-07:00

I have an extra ticket to the She and Him concert at Skirball Center this Wednesday night at 8 p.m.

Please come with me. Please? I only had one friend to go with and he has left me all alone.

I can't go to this thing by myself. I refuse to be that lame. Please save me from such a terrible fate!

Coooooooome wiiiiiiiiith meeeeeeeeeeee.

The less I have to do, the less productive I get. And since I have next to nothing to do, the little I DO have to do is suffering for it.

Dress

2008-04-13T20:43:00.000-07:00

It turns out at least one of the dresses I bought does in fact fit me thanks to the loose tailoring of the late 70s or early 80s and the elastic waistband.

I wore it today to the meeting at my church. I got a lot of stares. That's the same thing as a compliment, right? They stare because they're jealous. Uh huh.

That was the lesson today in my 9th grade class. Thou shalt not covet. I think of all the commandments this one is the hardest. Who doesn't want something? Anything? What is a human being if not a creature of desire?

Back in the day (and by "the day" I mean like 3 years ago) Lee made me a birthday present.

It's a soundboard. Of me. He would call me and hang up. I would then call him back and he would not answer. He used clips from the voicemails I left as well as some clandestine recordings.

Tricky Lee.

But yeah, I had totally forgotten about it until he brought it up today. I sound like an idiot. I call him a douche. It's great.

SO PRANK CALL YOUR FRIEND PRETENDING TO BE ME!

"No, no," I say. "You mean see you later."

"What?"

"See you later, alligator."

She stares at me.

"It rhymes, Mom. Later, alligator. In awhile, crocodile?"

She pauses.

"Okay, I'll see you in a bit, alligator," she says as she walks out the door.

I wanna buy you presents.

Anyway, on the way to my interview, I just so happened to walk past the Crumpler boutique. So, of course, on the way back to the train I ducked in for a quick peek. I just wanted to say that I, Maryanne Ku, did not buy a super cool, super awesome, super customizable Crumpler camera backpack even though I really wanted to.

Progress, people.

Of course, afterward I hopped the L train to Brooklyn and somehow ended up with 5 dresses.

Baby steps.

Why

2008-04-04T22:01:00.001-07:00

Why does every new guy I meet always end up laughing at me?

Oh.

Stoopid Boys

2008-04-02T23:34:00.000-07:00

If you want tickets to San Antone this weekend, some of my buddies are trying to unload a pair of tix for all three games.

Email or call me.

Poop.

2008-04-02T20:53:00.001-07:00

Well, junk. It's sold out.

Ugh.

Seriously

2008-04-02T20:47:00.000-07:00

Seriously, though.

Anyone want to come with me on the evening of the 22nd to see She and Him?

Please?

Thanks, Daniel.

2008-04-01T18:36:00.000-07:00

Thanks, Daniel, for sending me the creepiest photo ever.

She and Him

2008-04-01T17:55:00.000-07:00

I was recently informed that Zooey Deschanel, my girl crush, and M. Ward, one of my favorite guitar players, had been collaborating and had already, in fact, produced an album that was released a few weeks ago.

How did I not know this? It's a match made in indie heaven.

After sampling their new album entitled Volume One (which tacitly promises at least a Volume Two in the future), I have to say that if I were a person of less sound mind I would totally take up the life of a stalker and spend my days following Zooey around.

In truth, I don't think it's as good as it could have been. I like her voice better in some songs, not so much in others. I still think her voice is best suited to low register jazz and swing from the 50s. But, on the whole, the album is such a pure little gem of honest and sincere music making. There's no polish, no overproduction, just her sweet, sweet voice accompanied with perfectly tailored instrumentals.

Tickets for the April 22nd show at the Hiro go on sale at midnight. $20. Please come with me.

And now I shall leave you with pictures of the girl I wish I was born as:

OMG WHY CANT I BE HER.

so not fair.

Logic

I live at home with my mother.

Aishwarya Rai lives at home with her mother.

I am [super smexxy] like Aishwarya Rai.

Jealous much?

2008-03-30T21:24:00.000-07:00

I've got smokin hot ladies emailing me their photos.

Jealous much?

(If you are a Caucasian female living in the metro NY area and are interested in a TFCD shoot, email me a headshot and full body shot and a number where you can be reached.)

Overheard in the video store.

2008-03-29T18:03:00.000-07:00

Mother and daughter consider Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium.

Daughter: ...and all these things come to life.
Mother: Oh, the museum movie.
Daughter: No, Mom. That's an entirely different movie. In this one it's toys.

Uncertainty

2008-03-26T01:50:00.000-07:00

Leaving the gym tonight I walked by two guys who were discussing the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. No joke.

I am uncertain whether something like that repulses me or turns me on. I think I'm leaning toward the latter.

The $64,000 Question

2008-03-24T21:59:00.000-07:00

Lightroom or Aperture 2?

"That face."

2008-03-23T12:53:00.000-07:00

"That face," he laughed as he shook his head from across the table at yet another awkward lunch set up courtesy of Mother.

Frankly I was slightly shocked at such a statement. What about my face? I was looking at my would be matchmaker as she sat next to me talking about the things she talks about and I suppose I must've had some sort of exasperated expression on my face or something.

I'm realizing that I am pretty easy to read and my face is pretty expressive. I probably don't have as good of a poker face as I think I do.

He had a nice car, though. Nice Samsung phone. Super nice Ferragamo wallet (black leather, bi-fold) which I glimpsed at when he fought over and won the tab. Alas...Azn.

Also:

Happy Easter, darlings. I bought you all tickets to hottest peep show in town:

Found It

2008-03-22T13:28:00.000-07:00

Gucci - Cruise 08

Milk Cotton Shantung Egg Shape Dress w. Contrast Detail - 2,795.

They do not have it in stock at the Americana in Manhasset otherwise I would totally go see it in person right this second. It is in stock at the store on 5th Ave up to size 40 which I think is a size 6 US. How about I drop the dress sizes if you give me the three grand to buy it? Deal? Deal.

In Search of a Name

2008-03-22T12:44:00.000-07:00

Specifically, a designer's name. I need the name of the person who designed the dress Drew Barrymore wears in this month's issue of Domino. It's lovely. I want it. FIND IT, MY PRETTIES! FIND IT! FLY! FLY!

Appearances

2008-03-21T15:42:00.000-07:00

So there I was feeling good about myself. I was dressed. I was going to actually drive my car somewhere. I was going outside for the first time in what felt like a long time (48 hrs but it felt longer than that).

My mom sees me as I'm heading out the door:

"You're so cute. You look like a homeless person."

2008-03-21T01:53:00.000-07:00

Somebody please punch me in the face and knock me out so I can sleep.

A Verbal Cartoon

2008-03-17T16:52:00.000-07:00

Home Depot Nightmare.

I had a nightmare that I found the woman of my dreams but she was on a top shelf at Home Depot and I couldn't find anyone to get her down. I finally found a guy in an orange vest, but by the time he came back with a ladder she was an old lady.
