 I've been waiting for months to see Helvetica, and I finally got to see it today (yay)! It was quite wonderful. I love typography and all things design, so it was insightful and really visually appealing. I liked the guy pointing at all the signs and just everyone they interviewed. Although, I kind of wished they interviewed a normal everyday person to get their perspective but it was still good nonetheless. The soundtrack was great, and I'm on a mission to find it. The band El Ten Eleven did a lot of the music, so that's neat. Afterwards, I grabbed lunch with Tall-J and Hip-C. Next to our table was this really awkward date. Well, at least I thought it was awkward. They didn't seem to be talking very much, and the guy was mostly trying to make conversation. Anyway, when the girl left to go to the restroom, the guy talked to us a bit. (I was playing with Hip-C's iPhone and that somehow always sparks a conversation.) Soon after the girl returned from the restroom, they left. I wandered into a local stationery store and found really awesome gift wrapping paper: maps! There was one with the map of the world, map of NYC, Tokyo, Rome, Paris, London, the London Underground... and it was gift wrapping paper! Normally maps like these are more expensive but since it wrapping paper, it was pretty cheap. I bought myself a map of the London Underground, and it's currently hanging with (ha!) my Keep Calm and Carry On poster. Maybe I'll buy the Helvetica film poster, too. So how was your day?
