A Brick Wants To Be Something'' -Louis Kahn

When I was thirteen years old, while watching ''Indecent Proposal'' (1993) directed by Adrian Lyne, based on the novel by Jack Engelhard, Woody Harrelson held up a brick and said the phrase ''EVEN A BRICK WANTS TO BE SOMETHING'' whilst giving an architecture lecture. Today, twenty years later, the ''Louis Kahn-The Power of Architecture'' exhibition has just given me the chance to discover more about the complex and nomadic life of the real man who talked to this Brick.

''If you think of Brick, you say to Brick, ‘What do you want, Brick?’ And Brick says to you, ‘I like an Arch.’ And if you say to Brick, ‘Look, arches are expensive, and I can use a concrete lintel over you. What do you think of that, Brick?’ Brick says, ‘I like an Arch.’ And it’s important, you see, that you honor the material that you use. [..] You can only do it if you honor the brick and glorify the brick instead of shortchanging it.''

Interests

Exploring and looking at things from different perspective like a Architect. I find doing things differently by changing things or changing one thing creates a ripple effect like a drop of water.

My interests are math, English, political science, horticulture, music, dance, and comedy.

Rodgers And Hammerstein
My Favorite Things lyrics

MARIA:
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into Springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into Springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm in the process of REDISCOVERING MYSELF AS A PERSON. Which means this is NEVERENDING PROCESS.

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't judge a book by it's cover. I know it's too easy to do this because it's convenient. Everybody has their own story to share...
