Happy Valentine's Day! I hope yours was a good one. Here are the links I love for this week:
- I didn't get any macarons this year but it would've been nice if I did.
- Things we can all learn from Jeremy Lin (Forbes).
- Adele's interview in Vogue. I love this part, “I am quite loud and bolshie,” she says (British slang for unruly and clamorous). “I’m a big personality. I walk into a room, big and tall and loud.” Bonus: quotes from Adele's album of love from Huffington Post.
- Brainy models changing the catwalk, God help us all (normal women in the world) in The Economist.
- PDA: Presidential Display of Affection from Foreign Policy, photos of world leaders locking lips, gazing wistfully, and other awkward moments.
- 55 Powerful Photos from 1955-2011 (winners from Every World Press, a yearly photo contest in Amsterdam) and a look at a novelty Chinese Sex Toy Factory (made me remember the film Lars and the Real Girl and the fact that sex is, in many ways, a trade).
- The trailer for Pride and Prejudice (2005). I didn't have time to read Pride and Prejudice this Valentine's day (I always do) but I did start and end my day watching this film. It is my favorite film of all time--the electricity, the beautiful screenplay, the amazing soundtrack c/o Dario Marianelli. Oh goodness, this movie is a dream.
