Soweto Gospel Choir

Though I have been in one myself, I've never really like choirs... like almost at all. I will admit there is something uniquely powerful and beautiful about the sound a good choir puts out. It's like nothing else and can move you to the core.... but still... I always get a cheesy vibe surrounding the whole choir thing. That being said, I just found a choir that changes my mind about all that. I introduce to you the Soweto Gospel Choir from South Africa: 

(Just try and not cry.. hang in 'till the end.)

This isn't the best they have, I just love this song ha. It's the deepest song of my soul. :))))))))))))))))) (Thank you Jesus!!) The songs in the South African dialect and style are the best in my opinion. But yah.. dang man. They're good.

Gillian Goerz

I stumbled across a neat illustrator today named Gillian Goerz. I like her work because it's simple and therein lies its power. 

Outta-sight watercolor!! (Below)
Love this one.

I just did "in-depth research" (google image search) of about 10 cities in South Korea. I am blown away by the geographic diversity and beauty of that not so large country. I could post a lot of photos... but I want to leave you with one from Gangneung: 
I think it might be magic there.

Jeju, South Korea

Tonight I discovered the island of JeJu (South Korean province) on the internet. Simply put: I want to go there.





 I ever increasingly marvel at this world...and to think it's just a glimmer of what's ahead? I can't even imagine. (And I'm pretty good at imagining).

Bangs = fall appropriate 

Feel inside...and stuff like that

This is genius. I just watched this in coffee bean and managed to semi-contain my laughter supernova. (It still escaped in a mini, creepy giggle meteor shower.) I'm not sure if that's a feat or a shame. ANYWAY, watchhh thissss.

"Jemaine and Bret from Flight of the Conchords were asked to write a song for CureKids- a charity that funds research for childhood illnesses. They interviewed a bunch of kids about what they should write the song about, and then, based off of the ridiculous ideas, they did, along with a bunch of famous New Zealand artists."
