I went to the Critical Mass in Buenos Aires last Sunday and this dude was there filming it with a camera on a stick while riding a longboard. Check out the guy with a flowerpot on his head and the one dressed as a clown (who had drawn a six-pack on his stomach and “mommy” on his bicep). Also, the longboarding guy’s sunglasses matched his camera contraption.

I took pictures with my film camera, which I’ll be developing in… oh, maybe a few months :>

Judging by the shouts I keep hearing all around my building, there’s an important soccer match going on. Also, hearing people shout, “VAMOS LA CONCHA DE TU MADREEEEE*,” out of nowhere is always funny.

*Come on/go, your mother’s cunt. Argentinean swears are lovely.

You can’t tell, but there’s a really strong summer storm going on outside, warm with thunder and lightning. I absolutely adore summer storms, especially ones in Buenos Aires.
I wish my digital camera would come back from the dead, but no. So instead I took a bunch of pictures with my film camera and now I’m kind of dying to see how they came out.

Oh and my house is SO FREAKING COZY I CANNOT TAKE IT.

Critical Mass was fun today :>
Despite a stupidly impatient guy on a motorcycle crashing into a girl and throwing her off her bike. Thankfully, calm people intervened before others beat the crap out of him, and the girl only got a few scratches. Still, though, ugh.

Critical Mass last week was fun: there were around 4000 cyclists, more than there’s ever been, and it was also the 3º anniversary, which meant lots of people wore costumes and decorated their bikes with balloons. I’m not a fan of dressing myself up in strange attires, but I did take an entire lemon cake with absurd amounts of frosting.
This is meee, reflected on a bike light, with the Obelisk and my bike (silver one to the left) in the background.

My Chilean friend and his little friend (and first Argentinean housemate, as he later told me) biked hand-in-hand for a long while as everyone around them melted.

My bike mechanic boyfriend finished building this bike a few days ago, for a father who wanted to ride with his two kids. He made the frame from scratch :>
