So I've been lurking Nick's blog lately and have been inspired to create another one of my own. Probably about the 5th or 6th one of these that I have tried to maintain, but hopefully I will be able to keep this one up for awhile. I like Nick's approach to blogging because I think it'll be a much lower maintenance approach and realistic ambition to update daily, or at least frequently, if the entries remain short and simple. My plan for this blog is less daily activity, life of Michelle sort of things, so hopefully no emotional rants or drama coverage, but rather, art/news/music/film/ideas/literature I want to reflect on. Perhaps brief notes of my life will be included, but more so my personal artistic endeavors and travels. I think that covering the trip to Korea that I am soon to embark on, come the 20th of June, would be legit to cover.
The picture above in case anyone is reading and wondering is from Godard's La Chinoise. I watched the film fairly recently (about a week or so) with Cassidy and it just blew my mind. I figured I'd put it up so I could mention my screen name's inspiration (littleredmaomao,) particularly the sweetest french rock song. The song is all about communism and has a great hook that consists of a little "Mao! Mao!" hail at the end of each verse stanza. I would really like to cover it. I highly recommend the film, I think it's definitely one of his best. The movie is especially pleasant if you are able to watch it in a place where you can smoke simultaneously, as French movies often include chain-smoking and can be rather torturous to get through if you are a smoker and have to pause every half hour to relieve yourself.
