serious!

almost one year since ive had my camera.

i think i can now officially upgrade my status to serious amateur.

i am consistently "fluking" out and getting more shots that i like.

i still believe it will take another 3-4 years before

i get what i really want.

my thoughts are,

put in your time...and get the stripes.

i will move up in rank, stay in the grind.

year one was good, year two ....?

tha w!

heard the new wu album.

it take me back to a time when

the wu-tang forever album came out.

i was listenin to ready to die,

low end theory,

lots of what i didnt know was classic stuff.

i miss that era....

it seems like there isnt a wide variety of high quality albums out there.

im still lookin for the new cormega album, cant seem to find it.

here my fav picks for this year's releases:

kanye west - graduation

krs-one/marley marl - hip hop lives

wu-tang clan - 8 diagrams

cormega - who am i cd/dvd

common - finding forever

rich boy - rich boy (sah -prize!)

king jaffy joe - public enemy no. 1

disappointments for the year:

50 cent - curtis

jay-z - american gangster

young buck - buck the world

and im anticipating:

juice (bws)

nas - n****** (thats balls)

the chill!

fall finally hit home for reals.

maybe i should say winter.

im starting to climatize to vancouver weather, and i hate it.

feelin' chilly? naw son.

im goin to tough it out, t shirt and shorts style.

maybe not.

stretch!

it is recommended that u stretch everyday.

im trying to stretch more physically and mentally.

maybe an aim for next year to make it happen daily.

hot ish for the moment:

- lg viewty (id support that before iphone, word)

- killah cam public enemy no. 1 mixtape

- esoteric vs. gary numan

- ghost squad + wii zapper (aka old school cappin')

- shepard fairey: obey supply and demand

alive!

survived cracksville.

not as scary as i thought it would be,

BUT

u should never go there alone.

on some other ish,

i finally bought the shepard fairey book.

pretty pimp.

sun shining out there right now,

i think im going to go outside.

into the hood!

today im off to the hood.

aka the crappiest part of town,

east of main and hastings.

it should be some fun pics in there somewhere.

i am not goin alone.

pray for me. LOL.

sideways crazyface,

thanks!

today is american thanksgiving.

im happy i get to watch some football while i draw.

im happy i get to cap summo terrorists tonight on the ghost squad.

for 30 bucks this game is hot.

heard a crazemania album today.

esoteric vs. gary numan.

hot hot album.

check the lyrics.

and while u are checkin that out, check out the cool kids.

the beat is mad niz-uts.

shoot em up!

got the gat out, time to start cappin foos

gots resident evil umbrella chronicles,

terrorists in ghost squad.

its just like confidential mission and the virtua cop series.

gotta love sega.

oh, zombies and capcom get love too.

now i have to find king of the fighters 11 and

fire pro wrestling returns for ps2.

warning!

such a dope sign.

i like the fact that it shows that the dog will

turn terminator on your ass if u step into the yard.

also i like that there are no words,

so little kids can figure out

that this yard is not to be f'd with.

renamed!

ive decided to rename last nights ufc to

"decisive"

what a blah ppv.

a trend thats going on in ufc

is to play it safe in the top tier.

maybe there should be a bonus when finishing fights?

or overtime round?

i like the format in pride with the 10 + 5 minute rounds.

(which will never happen in the usa)

or tuf 2 x 5 min rounds +

overtime round to brawl for it all.

split decisions suck,

if fighters knew scoring going into the final (or any) round,

who knows what would happen.

validation!

time for ufc tonight.

i think rashad will destroy,

but i would like to see bisping take it (ya!).

im kinda torn, i like ryo chonan from the pride days,

and representing pride fc....

but i like the judo aspect of parisyan.

i think karo will take out chonan,

but watching the anderson silva vs chonan fight,

chonan can pull out the crazemania.

halfway!

slowly but surely im putting in the mileage on the photos.

the aim was 1000 snaps a month,

but looks like i will hit 10 or 11 000 snaps by the end of the year.

anyways,

ive passed halfway on galaxy.

and i now know what my next project

is going to be at work and at home.

this silence thing is working (i think).

gaming season!

an avalanche of games coming out this month.

first supa mario, now res evil umbrella chronicles,

next week, wii zapper + ghost squad (whadda lame name).

wish i had a 360 or ps3....but i think ill wait til next year.

i gotz too much to shoot at right now.

views!

something weird goin on with flickr.

some weird keywords ive seen on some of my photos

have recieved alot of views.

there are people out there who constantly search for obscure photos.

anyways,

super mario galaxy is hotness.

nintendo has done it again wtf.

silence!

workin on a theory about creativity.

im constantly listening to something walking to work,

at work,

while exercizing,

while drawing....

so ive decided to enjoy the silence for a while.

maybe go into meditation or some sh.

sounds like i am dialing into my own chi...word.

foliage!

heres some different colors for fall.

enjoyed the day off. (and reflected on our fallen soldiers).

super mario galaxy is out tomorrow.

should be crazemania.

a whirlwind of games out in the next two weeks for ll systems.

stars!

i like this structure during the day more than at night.

more hot verses:

mos def - beef ("is not what jay said to nas")

krs-one - my philosophy ("right up to your face and diss you")

cormega - dead man walkin'

guru - so wassup?!

snoop dogg - nuthin but a g thang

since we are in the digital era,

where singles seem to mean more,

i think next time ill think about full albums that rocked my ass.

the best!

today i read an article on the top 20 verses of all time.

here's some of mine off the top of my head:

notorious big - juicy (1st verse)

nas - live at the bbq

inspectah deck - triumph

big daddy kane - aint no half steppin (final verse)

canibus - 2nd round knockout (the whole thing - best diss ever)

milk d - top billin

rakim - juice (know the ledge) (1st verse)

ice cube - alive on arrival

scarface - mind's playing tricks on me (1st verse)

the suck!

wow.

planet terror,

then death proof,

then fantastic four: rise of the silver surfer,

then a movie that came with death proof,

switchblade sisters.

i guess tarintino put his name on this and helped put it on dvd,

but damn.

this movie is hella wack.

this week, 1 win and 3 losses.

flush the week down the toilet?

or rebound and watch planet terror over and over

to get back to 500.

box!

after watching both grind house movies...

planet terror is the bomb.

death proof was okay.

the car stuff and kurt russell's character was awesome,

but way too much unecessary (character building?) dialog.

on some other ish:

i found this crazy site with a bunch of fighting game ranking battles.

this means nothing to almost everyone.

but it has some weird ass games (for ranking battles).

karnov's revnege

super street fighter 2 turbo

street fighter three: third strike

cyberbots (wtf?)

last blade 2

capcom vs snk 2

darkstalkers 3

capcom fighting jam

fatal fury real bout special

power instinct 3: groove on fight (such a japanese title)

if you care,

mi-ka-do.net is tha joint for fukdupness.

grindin!

ish for the moment:

epmd - nobody's safe chump

black rob - whoa!

t.i. - im talkin to you

kanye west + lil wayne - barry bonds

watched planet terror last night...

lots of ass kickery.

maybe death proof sometime this week.

f!

wow i gots the hella hangovah this morning.

time for round 2 today.

i have the spidey wrap up party today,

which could potentially be a bender.

night!

finally dug up these pics from sept.

anyways, workin towards some more drawings.

finished 2 last night, and hopefully 2 more tonight.
