Music: This Will Destroy You
A new instrumental band I discovered this week has put me in a peaceful and concentrating mindset at work. After Tycho and Bonobo, This Will Destroy You could be my new obsession when craving for a light background music. I also found out they had an album called Live In Reykjavik, Iceland, which corresponds to my next to go destination!
Place: Carthage Must Be Destroyed
Exploring new places in New York City has always been an exciting way to spend my weekend. I saw this new restaurant on a blog and remembered the name immediately. Everything is pink inside the restaurant (even the pink tubes and a pink door from outside), ranging from cute plates to the expresso maker, the walls, and you name it. As a passionate foodie, I can also be responsible enough to assert that the food there is fresh, light, and enjoyable. An interlude happened during the lunch was that the waiter forgot to place our order and we waited for half an hour before we asked another guy, who turned out to be the owner and offered the food free of charge.
Chilling outside the hidden gem
Fun Fact: Most of the players of the Boston Bruins are Canadians.
Frankly, I don't watch sports very often and this Sunday was my first experience of watching a complete hockey game, with a Canadian friend. The game was between the Boston Bruins and the Montreal Canadians. I was surprised that he is a huge fan of the former because my superficial left hemisphere attributed the name of the teams to the place automatically. With a long, detailed explanation from him I learned that in the old days the junior league that belongs to the Boston Bruins was based in Canada. Although now the team members are able to choose whichever team to join after the junior league, the majority of the players of the Boston Bruins are Canadians.
Fun Fact follow-up: I wielded magic and settled the dust for the Boston Bruins with a 4-0 victory.
