Japan A-Z: Eigo → lovegeek.net

Wasei-eigo literally means Made-in-Japan English. These words are derived from English, but have a whole new meaning in Japanese language. Sounding very similar to the language of SMS, these guys were dropping letters before mobile phones were invented (although I think that has more to do with the structure of Katakana above anything else).

The thing I most want to do before I die, is travel the world, stopping at every music festival along the way.

(via itsalex)

If you replace music festival with film festival, me too!

“When you’re a little kid, you’re a little bit of everything. Artist, scientist, athlete, scholar… Sometimes it seems like growing up is the process of giving those things up. One by one. I guess we all have one thing we regret giving up. One thing we really miss that we gave up because we were too lazy or, we couldn’t stick it out or, because we were afraid.” —The Wonder Years (via littlemiss) (via followthatcab) (via creampuff) (via unicornology) (via somethingofadreamer) (via robot-heart)

I wish all my friends lived in Melbourne

So then I could move there! But without friends, it makes it so much harder.

Google map updating the Victorian fires. When the CFA couldn't keep up with the demand on their website, google stepped in and saved the day. → mapvisage.appspot.com

To all the Victorian tumblrs...

My thoughts are with you as these fires burn out of control.

If anyone is interested you can donate to the Australian Red Cross to help all the firefighters and volunteers that are working to save lives.
