I Am a Deeply Superficial Person. -A.Warhol

Yesterday I had the pleasure to go see the exquisite Marilyn Monroe exhibit at the Andy Warhol Museum. I happen to love Andy and love to go to his museum ofter. But there are others that happen to dislike Andy's work and have no desire to drift into the imaginative world that is Andy Warhol's. This trip, I went with my father and is was absolutely exquisite. My father going mainly for the Marilyn exhibit, but did actually find other works that he did enjoy in the museum. This blog will take you, as best as I could, inside the exhibit and throughout the museum. The photos are poorly taken since no photography is allowed, I snuck a bunch with my iPhone since I am not one to follow the rules. Enjoy!

Death means a lot of money, honey. Death can really make you look like a star.-A.Warhol

If I'd observed all the rules, I would have never gotten anywhere.-M.Monroe


A sex symbol becomes a thing. I just hate to be a thing.-M.Monroe


Isn't life a series of images that change as they repeat themselves?-A.Warhol


Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday Mr President
Happy birthday to you
Thanks, Mr President
For all the things you've done
The battles that you've won
The way you deal with U.S. Steel
And our problems by the ton
We thank you so much
Everybody, happy birthday -M.Monroe, 1962


Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.-M.Monroe


What do I wear to bed? Why, Chanel No. 5 of course.-M.Monroe


There was my name up in lights. I said, 'God, somebody's made a mistake.' But there it was, in lights. And I sat there and said, 'Remember, you're not a star.' Yet there it was up in lights.-M.Monroe


In the future everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes. I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is, "In fifteen minutes everybody will be famous.-A.Warhol


What I was actually trying to do in my early movies was show how people can meet other people and what they can do and what they can say to each other.-A.Warhol


Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.-M.Monroe


If I'm a star, then the people made me a star.M.Monroe


Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years when they could just say, "So what." That's one of my favorite things to say. "So what."-A.Warhol


I love Los Angeles. I love Hollywood. They're beautiful. Everybody's plastic, but I love plastic. I want to be plastic.-A.Warhol

Death means a lot of money, honey. Death can really make you look like a star.-A.Warhol

I hope you enjoyed the tiny sneak peak of the 13 photo's I can give you and if you are ever in the Pittsburgh, PA area I definitely suggest visiting the museum for yourself. I adore it and have been to a million of museums in NYC, and D.C. but the Andy Warhol Museum is still in my top 3. I'll leave you now with my favorite quote from Andy. I agree with this immensely!!! (Of course I would if you knew at all haha) Also here is the link to visit for more info on the museum and while on the site don't forget to check out the awesome gift shop! http://www.warhol.org/

"I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of "work" because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don't always want to do. Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery." Andy

Got My Ass Squeezed By Sexy Cupid

We all know bars aren't the best places to meet people, but we never really obey that rule. Yes, we all go out to have some champagne here and there so whats the harm in meeting someone else who is just enjoying their cocktail as well? A lot. Everyone is WACK when they are at a bar. It's like the airs different in them and it gives good vibes of one nighters and public make out. Sick! But yes, I've been there and so have you boys and girls. It's only natural. But I actually have not been going out but rather enjoying nights in with loved ones, my journal, or my ear connected on the phone to my sisters that live in different states. Now by doing this, and especially for not having hangovers from drinking, I have my days to do some research on finding the hottest girls and hottest boys who actually share the same interests as you. This entry is going to be an ode to Pittsburgh......but you can truly adopt this to any city.

Whether you are a sporty or artsy person there are places in the city to fit your needs.

Walnut Street in Shadyside. Kinda like a little wannabe M Street in Georgetown minus the fab Intermix and Barneys. Lots of hot boys and girls and tons of coffee shops. Bring that laptop and act like it cannot connect to the WiFi so then you can ask a hot boy or girl that you see to help you out. This leads to conversation which will always lead to dates. Don't be afraid of doing the asking out. Do you really want to live your life thinking "what if?" Museums. I woke up this morning and I couldn't wait to get to the Warhol Museum for the new exhibit! I know some of you don't think this way. I've been gay like this since I was 3 but it's never to late to start showing an interest in Visual Arts. Especially Andy's! The Museum idea also works FABULOUSLY in DC and NYC as well of course! Just drop your program, do the "bend and snap" and you're on your way!!! Carson Street. I'm a sucker for the southside and I love that it's absolutely nuts. Once again.....coffee shops(I have loved the Beehive since I was 14), tons of music venues that gigs usually run at 7pm....a good time because hopefully nobody will be seeing double at 7. Now theres nothing better to me than a guy that either plays or enjoys good music. Soo hot! A million little resterants including my favorite....Mallorca. And the Art Store that's around 24th street I think. I spend hours in this store wishing I could draw, staring at the beautiful white canvases, the lovely oil paints, and always letting myself get something even though I can only draw stick figures. Hey, a girl can dream. I ALWAYS see hotties here. And who doesn't want a boy that can bust out some Leonardo moves and draw you with nothing but a diamond necklace on??? Too busy to go hang out at these places?? No prob. It's called match.com. Now this didn't work for me but I do have a close gf who LOVES it and actually does find boys she likes on it. The best part about Match.com is that is you really want someone that plays tennis, listens to your favorite bands, and has dark hair and dark eyes; you can totally find them. I only found one person that, for me, was datable and we lasted a little over a month. I dumped him because he literally BOREDDDD me to death. And I'm a talker, crazy, fun person and he just wasn't meshing well with my flow so he had to go!

Here's my new favorite spot for meeting hot girls and boys, Wardrobe Fittings, Casting Calls, or on the Set. Yesterday at my Wardrobe fitting(that lasted almost 3 hours!!!!) I met the cutest little model boy. We talked forever and here's the downer, he lives almost 2 hours away from Pittsburgh so I don't do good at LDR's so I had to call it quits but I cannot wait to shoot with this hottie next week. Just love him. Then on my way out I saw two other really hot boys waiting for their fittings. And don't worry guys.....the girls were gorgeous as well!!! So if you have the experience and the looks go read for your local agency and hopefully you will get represented and booked for a few gigs.

And the last thing......you have to have the confidence of no other. I can't stand wimpy guys and girls who complain about "I was too embarrassed to talk to them", "Theres no way a hot boy/girl like them would like me", Or the classic "It's the boys job to ask me out". Well you know what.....it's 2009, we have to make our own paths. If you want something just go after it and get it!

Ohh yes, and lots of girls say sports bars but it's to my belief that this is the worst place. Boys are into sports. Let them have their guy time. They don't come bother us when were getting mani's and pedi's so why bother them. I mean we all saw what happened to Samantha on SATC with her basketball loving boy toy? Complete disaster!

Peace and Love
