a cup of moca please

A really full Friday, which is rare since most of my days off are spent sleeping in till 1pm and constantly running errands. I went with my sister to the Barney's Warehouse Sale. Didn't find much because I am broke; but I did treat myself to a cashmere sweater. Later that day, I met up with K_la to see the Ecstasy exhibit @ MOCA near Little Tokyo. I have been meaning to catch this one and February is the last month to endulge the ectasy art. The plan was to meet around 3ish, but 405 traffic pushed our meeting up time to 430pm. Cameras were off limits, but K_la is hella good in sneaking some snap shots. She caught some great shots of the art. The highlights were some Murakami stuff (a painting on the wall and mushroom sculptures). There was also a room with rotating mushrooms on the ceiling and the flourescent lights on the floor. It was a bit trippy since everything was reversed. One of my favorite rooms was filled with tiny christmas light bulbs all configured in vertical and horizontal rows to fit the whole room. To walk through the room was a dizzying experience; I was scared that I would fall or something. The exhibit was interactive in some aspect. It had to do with the video art that gave you a headache or a light show that almost blinds you. So... back to work tomorrow, nothing new for the weekend.
