The balcony to my house overlooks the lake, so the fireworks were clearly visible. Such a great set this year, happy 4th! Coldplay / Death And All His Friends [via]

This brilliant installation entitled Breeze Reflection, designed by Djeff, uses body movement to change the way the screen lights up and blows air (through small fans). The concept is about changing your surroundings through innocent gestures. We all affect our society and environment through our actions. This is so great.

Pogo / Go Out and Love Someone

This is a happy day, and this song makes me feel the most happy; my favorite song of Pogo. Watch this clip from Carry On Cruisinghere. Skip to moment 6:40.

I love you all. Go out and love someone.

I just came out to my parents!

I ate at P.F. Chang’s last night and opened my fortune cookie. Read what it said, here. I am a firm believer in fortune cookies, no matter how ridiculous they may sound. In the long run, they end up making sense. This particular one really really encouraged me, because before I opened the cookie, I took a NO H8 photograph with Adam Bouska. Just being a part of a campaign that really meant a lot to me, made me realize that I could tell my parents and hope that they will love me for who I am as a person, as their son.

So, I sat them down this morning and told them straight up. “I’m gay.” They paused for a moment (which seemed as though it were five minutes), looked at each other, then they both started crying. I asked my mom what was wrong and she said, “I’ve always known, Devin. We both knew, we were just waiting for you to be comfortable with who you are and to tell us proudly. We love you so much. I am so proud of you!” Then my father started crying, then I started crying.. It was just so unexpected. I love my family so much, they mean the world to me.

I thought I should share my story, because it really worried me back in January when I wrote this post. Thank you to those that have supported me all this time! You’re all so great, I love you.

Listen to Pogo’s latest creation, “Scrumdiddlyumptious”! The sounds taken from the candy man scene in the 1971 classic Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory!

My favorite is still “Mary’s Magic”, his take on The Secret Garden (1993).

My friend Lyzz and I are driving up to West Hollywood to get our NO H8 photographs taken with photographer Adam Bouska right now! Stoked.

Update: First of all, we got so lost in West Hollywood. We ended up finding the place 3 hours later. But, it was so much fun! I was #994, with my white v-neck and a temp tattoo of NO H8 on my cheek. Adam Bouska is so great, he told me which poses to do; I loved how he showed off my ‘good side’. Ha. Adam Bouska and Jeff Parshley are the nicest guys ever, let me tell you. I’ll be receiving the photo(s) in a week or so.
