Royal Caribbean - Shellphone
This is one of the most beautiful ads I’ve ever seen, hands down.

In the past 6 months I’ve learned more about design than in the last 10 years. I’ve found myself liking things that were not exactly “my style”. Simplicity. Here’s a logo I really like. It’s an abbreviation, a serif. Anyone could have done it. What makes it special however, is the lockdown, the hands. What do you think? Posted via email from C....

About the sub-conscious.
As I headed to work, I had some sort of mini-epiphany. it’s about the sub-conscious. You see, no matter where, you’ll find yourself thinking about x or y situation, object, person or otherworldly being. Since I am no psychologist, this “theory” of mine might not come as news to you, but I still manage to find it quite interesting. As far as I’m concerned, us humans,...

Red, like the shiny skin of an apple and heavy as diluted maple syrup was the drop that had fell in his forehead, he thought he was showering. After a few minutes in what he thought was the bath tub, a big bang woke him up. He listened to the steps above him and listened to the steps of someone coming down the stairway next to his room. He panicked, wiped his forehead with the back of his palm...

Understanding Women, Part 2.
“When you rule the world, I want to be in charge of the advertising of your government.” It’s how it started. I was not planning on writing. I was rather fascinated by how gracefully she counted certain amount of money to finally call her day off. “With all this money?” she answered, turning her hand and looking at the money. “Or you mean that we women are going to rule the...

Dead Serious
Being dead serious about something stupid and recognizing it does not mean that you‘ve lost your mind, it means that the child within you wants to end a chapter and finally go into hibernation.

Women, we can’t live without them. If you know me, follow me on Last.FM or any other profile, then you probably know I have a thing fro female-fronted music. There’s something exciting yet calming about it; from a capella (yes, it’s written separated) to symphonic metal. Women are able to (besides all things they do and deal with) put beauty into effort and dedication...

It has just begun
Lyrics are from “Forever Is The World” by Theatre Of Tragedy. That very part has been stuck in my head. Either I relate too much to it, or the fact that the band is giving it’s last concert on October 2nd has me a tidy bit upset. Either way, enjoy. Posted via email from recarx’s | Comment »

Spa:: Con que quieres aprender Dominicanés?
No, el termino Dominicanés no existe en ningún diccionario (aún), pero creo que antes del primer viaje a marte el término se va a concretizar. Pues si el Español es una lengua viva y constantemente actualizada, el Dominicanés lo es aún más. Desde prestamos lingüísticos, hasta la invención de términos como “Watagatapitusberry”, el Dominicanés pronto será la lengua que lo abarque todo. Al...

Why Valentine's Day Shouldn't Exist.
Oh February, that time of the year where everything is red. It’s that season where passion’s color is used for love, yet it’s okay because passion is not love and you know it, right? No? Doesn’t matter. It’s that time of the year again where single people feel anti-social, anti-social people feel socio-phobic and socio-phobics laugh at how ridiculous...

Understanding Women (Revision 2)
Some time ago, I started thinking on how hard Sigmund Freud tried to understand woman, and for some reason my mind just started the emission of somehow twisted but certainly true statements on what women want. In my thoughts, I got to the point where I decided that if we want to understand women, then we should think like them, which, is pretty much the problem since it is hard for most of us. I...

Alejandro DM - Let It Be
Let it be is the new track by DJ/Producer Alejandro Taveras, better known as Alejandro DM. The track has been done for quite a while now, but was made available only as a preview on Last.FM and on his live gigs. Now you can enjoy it too and do so for free. In this track he features a collaboration by DJ Haniels that adds a little spice to it. As his friend, I’ve decided to re-name the track...
