Wheels On Fire

Devirginized Dita             April 6th, 2011

I remember riding my bike down the boardwalk
with nowhere to go and looking at the girls.
It was really innocent.
- Mark Ruffalo





It's bad enough that I have a crush on a bike.. what more having learned that it's female? I am a lesbian bike lover. Lol. Joaquin and his friends should start a show called Queer Eye For The Straight Bike. They gave Joaquin's grandfather's bike a makeover and named it Dita because the flat black reminded Quin of Dita Von Teese.

Joaquin rode Dita (how kinky) to SJ's house at 3pm and the boys first stripped her down and then rebuilt and repainted her. Aaron was in charge of the power sander, SJ with the cabling, and Joaquin with the bodywork and painting. They all assembled it back together and SJ's dad helped with Dita's chain..  Too kinky for my life. Quin rode Dita home by 11pm. She went from nottie to hottie in 8 hours! Good job, guys!


P.S. I have 2 bikes and 2 scooters just lying around the house. You might wanna pimp my rides. :D One baby blue bike, please. :( And I wish you didn't move to Alabang, Quin! I need my awesome neighbors. 


Here are pictures of Dita's transformation taken by Joaquin!

Danbo Feels

D-A-N-B-O

I have a new obsession. It's far from the usual ones -- flowery, fluffy, sparkly things. This one's very.. square. And cute! But Arielle knows how to make it extra cute that I've become so obsessed and started making my own little Danbos.

Danbo (aka Danboard) is a carboard robot from the 28th Chapter of the Japanese manga series Yotsuba&, and underneath the cardboard box suit is Miura Hayasaka!

I asked Arielle Nadel if I could post some shots from her project titled 365 Days of Danboard because it made me smile and I wanted to make you smile, too (now smile)! Arielle is good at a lot of things. I'd say she's most gifted in photography and being a great BFF to Danbo (Right, Danbo?). 365 Days of Danboard shares with us the different sides of Danbo as well as their everyday adventures and experiences.

It's amazing how Arielle is able to bring out emotions in all 365 pictures of the ever straight-faced Danbo. Great work, Arielle!
