The Hills will be retuning for another season without LC

MTV announced today that all of your favorite “characters” from The Hills will be back. As for Lauren, she will be leaving the show (finally) and starting to promote her new clothing line for Kohls.

“Heidi Montag, Audrina Patridge, Spencer Pratt, Brody Jenner, Stephanie Pratt, Lo Bosworth, Justin Bobby and “fresh faces,” will be back, the network teases in a statement.

“Spencer and Heidi will be newlyweds, so the stakes are higher than ever before for the two to make things work,” adds MTV. “Viewers will find out life in Los Angeles only gets more complicated as friendships, relationships and loyalties are tested like never before.”

Epic fail. In the words of Kristen Cavallari, “I’m so over it.”

Dining Out For Life

This Thursday, for one day and night only, Dining Out For Life will be taking over many of Seattle’s restaurants to raise money for AIDS service organizations. Not only is this happening in Seattle, but in major cities all over the country and in Canada.

It really is such a great cause and it’s so easy to give back.

“When you dine at a participating restaurant on this day, 30% of your bill goes directly to our local AIDS organization, and the fight against illness and hunger in our community.”

Seattle U students, get off campus and go eat somewhere else for a change. I know we all get a little tired of C-street and the bistro sometimes so whether it’s breakfast, lunch, dinner or cocktails (for those of age) every little bit counts.

For Participating Restaurants

Cause I’m running in circles searching the world for you

Last night was literally a blast from the past. I would like to extend a big thank you to The Real You for allowing me to take pictures and giving me the opportunity that I haven’t had in a long time. I took out my camera for the night. You know… that one that I’ve been using a lot lately.

I haven’t shot live photos with this camera since I was sixteen and back then I was very in your face and I found myself last night being a little bit reserved almost intimidated when I shouldn’t have been. Anyways, here are some of my favorites. I’ve forgotten how to edit them the way I used to so all 8 are edited in different ways.

Joy of Life

On Friday, Dom went in for her tattoo and I brought my camera to document it all. It was actually a really cool experience because I had never seen it being done before and it was Dom’s first tattoo so we had to get this on camera.

Sidekick LX

The original sidekick has gone through so many models over they years, I’m suprised they’re making another one. T-mobile’s Sidekick LX will be released in stores May 13. Now with an even bigger screen and a thinner body, the LX features a GPS system, integrated Facebook, Myspace and Twitter, a 3.2 megapixel camera and many other features that I don’t care as much about hahah

I remember when I was fifteen and wanted a sidekick. It was the ultimate necessity for every scene kid.

Swimming Pool Illusion

Leandro Erlich is known for his innovative designs and recently decided to feature this number in his latest exhibition.

“Erlich has constructed a full-size pool, complete with all its trappings, including a deck and a ladder. When approached from the first floor, visitors are confronted with a surreal scene: people, fully clothed, can be seen standing, walking, and breathing beneath the surface of the water. It is only when visitors enter the Duplex gallery from the basement that they recognize that the pool is empty, its construction a visual trick fashioned by the artist. A large, continuous piece of acrylic spans the pool and suspends water above it, creating the illusion of a standard swimming pool that is both disorienting and humorous.”

MTV needs moar music

In 2007, Justin Timberlake accepted his award at the video music awards by saying, “play more videos.” It has taken the network two years to do just that. MTV had finally gotten rid of their used-to-be popular show Total Request Live (TRL) after that too had finally stopped being about the music. Earlier this month, the network created AMTV – which is a 6 hour block of straight music videos running from 3-9AM.

(Geez MTV really put out for that one)

I suppose it’s a start but realistically I’d rather see music videos during the day not at a time slot where I’m sleeping. At least they’re trying?

Be Green: Reuse your old bottles

New Soap, Old Bottle is a product that puts NEW soap into old bottles such as Coke and Heineken. After being sanitized, the company purchases the liquid soap to pour into these bottles for purchase. They are $4 a bottle and benefit towards the hard hitting recession and being green at the same time!

“Big companies aren’t going to do this on their own. So we’ll do it for them,” said Scott Amron, designer, electrical engineer and founding principal of New York’s Amron Exprimental. “We buy brand name liquid soap by the barrel and package it in old bottles here in America.”

Summer, Summer, it’s fine

I’ve never missed the beaches of Okinawa so much. These pictures aren’t shot there but I miss the beaches, I’m not talking Houghton in Kirkland. Photographer Stuart Gibson from Tasmania shot these incredible pictures of the water, I’ve never seen anything like it.
