this movie will obviously be all about bruce and his acceptance of batman.

from what we got in the trailer, i'm gonna assume that batman has been gone for a while. with gotham in shambles, bruce has to come to terms with how much gotham needs batman.

when he fails against bane, he will need to overcome both his physical and mental demons. when bane beats his ass (i don't know how nolan, if he does, will work with batman's broken back), he'll have to confront his past (e.g. parents), his role as savior of gotham (both as batman and bruce wayne, the philanthropist), and his openness to love/emotion (e.g. with catwoman/selina).

at the end, batman's gonna have to out-smart bane. the thing is bane is essentially batman's equal in terms of brains and brawn (more brawn, i think). when bruce finally learns how to separate batman/bruce wayne, he'll "rise" and overcome that fear that he will succumb to in the first fight with bane. nolan could really cover a lot of topics with TDKR.

will batman get his back broken?

i definitely think this teaser was rushed. the title cards are really not nolan's thing. i wonder if they're going to do the viral campaign they did for tdk. i still have some swag from it.

moleskine or cartesio (standard pocket one/lined)?

help me decide, brobocops. thanks.

i'm looking for books on amazon about fashion, menswear, style, etc.

anybody recommend anything in particular? thanks.

ps - thoughts on glenn o'brien's book? (http://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Man-Behavior-Gentleman/dp/0847835472/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1310847963&sr=1-1)

let me first preface this post by saying that sam is the shit. she's honestly the first person i talked to (on sufu) about music and our shared love for jazz, Sade, and everything in between.

let's get on with this. i came home from tennis to this superdank package from samantha (samsikle) (i lol'd at the UO box). i had a good feeling that she got me in the swap, and when i saw this post, i knew she was gonna come through with the goods:

I'm just gonna leave this here:

I saw one item Sam is sending, and it's glorious. It's the epitome of what superswap is about, and mad + rep is due. Sam's partner, you are extremely lucky (I'm fucking jealous).

i open the package to read this:

the (very well-wrapped) bag at the top contains an OG Four Loko:

i open the black Y-3 box and find this awesome master chef denim apron, which is, i'm assuming, what OkayOkay was talking about.:

-=-=-=-=-=-

all of this was wrapped very nicely (package within a package concept). i seriously said "holy shit" out loud when i opened the Y3 box and saw my name on the apron. the denim is unbelievable on this. sam mentioned me teaching kids how to cook in the note. i was a bit confused at first, and i laughed hard when i understood what she thought. what i meant was cooking (based god dance), but she mistook it for actually cooking (food). lol, i'm gonna have to school her on this.

barring that, next level doesn't begin to describe this package. apron = my love for denim + cooking + cooking (dance) = goddamn. these chocolates look so dank and i'm especially intrigued by the olive oil sea salt one. unfortunately, i'm on a strict diet now, but i promised my little brother (who will also be making use of the apron; he apparently dubs himself the "next david chang") that we'll eat them together next month after he gets back from a summer program at boarding school.

i'm not gonna lie; i have a major crush on emma stone. my tumblr is filled with her, so kudos to sam for including the vanity fair issue. the amoeba tee fits like a glove and i'm definitely gonna give A Public Space a read. those 3 dvd's (brothers bloom is definitely underrated) have now joined my to-watch list. the four loko is being saved for some fun coming up soon.

in closing, i'd like to thank selective beef (for the pervburger patch - so swag), mrip (for the OG four loko blueberry), and most importantly, samantha, for a supersickdopefuckingawesomewoowooswag package.

added you all as well

^ those are great for summer wear. they're a bit thicker than the regular uniqlo colored socks.

bombino at le poisson rouge this friday (15th)

catch me dancing and cooking there.

^ my daily meals (4) consist of chicken breast + salad + soy sauce + pepper + lemon juice

no processed foods. no juices. only water.

if i could somehow cook all my chicken in advance, that would save me a lot of time.

i used to eat at pho bang on mott st. years back when it was at its best.

i had pho there a few months ago, and it just isn't as good anymore. i'd go as far to say that it doesn't deserve its good reviews.

the rest of my family was even more harsh. they say it downright sucks now. you'd be better off eating at nam son or pho grand.

off-side: my dad was the neighbor of the owner of pho bang back in vietnam.

sucks when you're on a strict diet and everyone around you is going out to eat while you stay home

i ate at pho pasteur in vietnam a few years back and they served that (dau cho quay) with my pho tai bo vien

so dank

i still have not tasted pho as good as the one i had in the home country. shame.

somebody help me break 5k rep

will +rep back. lol

i got the swag and it's pumping out my ovaries

^

lifting feels s0o0o0o good

just got accepted into my school's finance scholars program. apparently the most prestigious program in the business school.

200+ applicants, only 30 get in. i know dudes who have legit bank internships who applied. i never really thought i'd get it, considering i finished the application/essay in half an hour.

got the acceptance letter today. i'll take it as a sign of giving finance another chance.

i honestly thought this was clopek:

^ thanks boo

anybody know who this is?

anybody read about that quentin tarantino sex "scandal"?
