It has begun...














The first of the designs I've created are up. Real simple stuff but it works well.

Have to go out during the daytime as well or at least bring a really good light out with me at night so I can see what I'm doing and prevent overspray.

More to come!

A 40oz for breakfast just to get me through the day

My first year of university is finally over. In celebration I will resound a mighty "HUZZAH!" across the intarwebs. Did you feel it?....is it in yet?
I certainly didn't do as well as I had hoped I'd do though. Too many distractions over the course of the year kept me from really putting my entirety of being into my school work. Which, mind you unless you're a natural genius, is what one must do in order to be truly successful in university. There really is hardly any time for fun once the machine starts grinding along. It's just work, work, work.
But c'est la vie mon amis is what I say. It was a learning experience and I've come away with some improved skills and a clearer outlook on my education and its future.

Now that school is done though I have more time for other pursuits that fulfill me. Like updating this little piece of the blogosphere on a much more regular basis. What a weird word 'blogosphere' is. It makes me think of a strange monster from a distant world attacking Earth. Like a Star Trek monster. Which, if you haven't seen the trailers yet, looks "le fucking fantastic" as the French would say. I just may be one of those nerds everyone adores waiting in line for a day or two waiting to see it on opening night. I refuse to dress up though.....because I'm dressed up already.

On the inside.

What else do people 'blog' about? Dammit I hate that word! Blog, bloooooooogggggg, B-L-O-G. Who the fuck made up that word? Leading research indicates that this man solidified the usage of the term. I do not like this man and, yes, it is for a petty reason.

My moms just bought me a chocolate bunny and I told myself I'd refuse chairman-maoing it down until tomorrow. I couldn't resist and ate its ears. So now it can't hear me discuss with myself how delicious it is.

Here's what kind of music I'm listening to right now in Light and Heavy flavours:

Heavy Rotation :

The Go! Team

Eric. B & Rakim

DJ Shadow

KRS-One

Light Rotation

Patti Smith

Souls of Mischief

Talib Kweli

That's about all really. I'm diggin' The Go! Team something fierce. It's just music that gets me moving ya know? If you can make music that makes somebody shake, rattle and roll than you must be doing something right.

Music's making a fierce sideline comeback into my life recently too. Arguably more than art has. When I was younger music was my life. There wasn't a time when music didn't feel my ears with it's rhythms and melodies.

This summer I declare it will mainly only consist of the 4 elements. Breakin', Rapping, DJ-ing and Getting up. That's it. That will be my only recreational activities. That's all I've developed my interests in.

I also have to break open my japanese and french textbooks again as well. I was doing really well in BC learning japanese and last summer I was all over french grammar like a fat kid on a bucket of mashed potatoes and gravy. (cliiiiiiiiiiiiche!)
Alright that was mean to fat kids, I mean...thinly challenged kids, so let's use a different simile such as 'like a Shriner getting a boner when he sees a tiny little car". Too obscure? Yeah, well screeeeeew you.

And this post is fuckin' done son!
