Surreal Desert

Last Friday, I had trouble falling asleep. In fact, I didnt sleep at all. haha I ended up staying awake until around 6:30, when I finally crashed. One of the things I entertained myself with during that time was a tutorial I found a while ago. I had been reluctant to try to do it, but on Friday I said "what the hell" and gave it shot. I crashed before I could complete it, and never got back to it until today haha...Here it is.


Click on it to see the full size...

If anyone is curious about the tutorial, I found it here.

Cool huh!?

Blind Dates

I don't understand how some people can be comfortable with their friends setting them up on "blind dates". I guess you have to really trust in your friend's judgement. My thing is the person that your friend tries to hook you up with is pretty much a reflection of how they see you. Obviously, they wouldn't hook you up with someone they KNOW you won't get along with. So, that person, whoever they may be, is going to pretty be what your friend thinks you like, or matches you "perfectly" ...or close enough...This kind of sucks if you're like me, who only shows a certain side of yourself to certain friends. So if, lets say, you only really show your funny side to a friend, they'll go off and tell that person of how FUNNY you are...and how you always have something FUNNY to say...and this person will naturally create this image of you in their mind of you being incredibly funny and entertaining, I suppose...And now, you're fucked because there's obviously much more to you than your jokes, but you're limited now by these preconceptions of you. Now, when you go on this "date", hoping to find a potential significant other (because really, if you're not..then you're kinda wasting your time, arent you?), and you can't even be 100% yourself with this person 'cause you're stuck playing a "role". lol And as tempted as you might be to say, "Fuck it. I WILL be myself", you know that you can't because if you do, you are risking disappointing the person you're on a date with who came, expecting to see someone funny...and got something totally different...which may or may not be a pleasant surprise (you just never friggin know)...and that would kind of make this date a failure for the evening...and now you've just wasted your time AND the person's time...not to mention, possibly damaging your mutual friend's credibilty as a cupid-wannabe match maker. O_o So, blind date? No thanks...

Porn and Life?

I don't think that anyone should be "exposed" to porn at TOO early an age. It can kind of mess you up, if you're not really ready for it. lol..I can't remember how old I was when I first saw porn. But, I'm pretty sure it was before I was even in the 6th grade. So, you already know my mind was BLOWN. And it's really crazy because during these "developmental years", it's not like I could really talk to my father about these things. (Really, I think the only "talk" he and I ever had that was remotely close to anything like this was him lecturing me to forget about girls & relationships and just focus on school..O_o THEN, he'd go on to say "look at me...if I hadn't gotten serious with your mother, I would've finished school and I could be an engineer right now". lol Maybe I should've responded, "Yeah..and I probably wouldn't be alive. YAY!". But I digress..) Also, I don't think I got along well enough with my brothers to have those "man to man" talks like we have now...sooooo who was guide? Porn. Porn porn porn. lol And it's really friggin crazy! I'm not saying that I'm insane or anything like that...and no, im not some sexual deviant (at least, I dont think so..O_O). But it did influence me a great deal. I mean, I've got to admit that there were times when I envisioned the "perfect" world as a friggin porno. Everyone fucks each other (without the cheesy 70s porn music...Sorry yall..no BOM CHIKA WAH WAH!). No jealousy. No one gets heart broken. And the only people who ever die are the evil Aliens, hell-bent on taking over the world, by brainwashing humans with anal sex...O_o

See what I mean??? lol...

Cruel Life

Here's an example of how cruel life can be:
We are born blind and have to die,
in order to see.

If I had...

I'm vibing off of this right now...I'm pretty sure a lot of people can agree with a lot of what Eminem said this song. Check it out...

"If I Had..."

Life.. by Marshall Mathers
What is life?
Life is like a big obstacle
put in front of your optical to slow you down
And everytime you think you gotten past it
it's gonna come back around and tackle you to the damn ground
What are friends?
Friends are people that you think are your friends
But they really your enemies, with secret indentities
and disguises, to hide they true colors
So just when you think you close enough to be brothers
they wanna come back and cut your throat when you ain't lookin
What is money?
Money is what makes a man act funny
Money is the root of all evil
Money'll make them same friends come back around
swearing that they was always down
What is life?
I'm tired of life
I'm tired of backstabbing ass snakes with friendly grins
I'm tired of committing so many sins
Tired of always giving in when this bottle of Henny wins
Tired of never having any ends
Tired of having skinny friends hooked on crack and mini-thins
I'm tired of this DJ playing YOUR shit when he spins
Tired of not having a deal
Tired of having to deal with the bullshit without grabbing the steel
Tired of drowning in my sorrow
Tired of having to borrow a dollar for gas to start my Monte Carlo
I'm tired of motherfuckers spraying shit and dartin off
I'm tired of jobs startin off at five fifty an hour
then this boss wanders why I'm smartin off
I'm tired of being fired everytime I fart and cough
Tired of having to work as a gas station clerk
for this jerk breathing down my neck driving me bezerk
I'm tired of using plastic silverware
Tired of working in Building Square
Tired of not being a millionaire

But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick
without a condom on, while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big enough ass for the whole world to kiss

I'm tired of being white trash, broke and always poor
Tired of taking pop bottles back to the party store
I'm tired of not having a phone
Tired of not having a home to have one in if I did have it on
Tired of not driving a BM
Tired of not working at GM, tired of wanting to be him
Tired of not sleeping without a Tylenol PM
Tired of not performing in a packed coliseum
Tired of not being on tour
Tired of fucking the same blonde whore after work
in the back of a Contour
I'm tired of faking knots with a stack of ones
Having a lack of funds and resorting back to guns
Tired of being stared at
I'm tired of wearing the same damn Nike Air hat
Tired of stepping in clubs wearing the same pair of Lugz
Tired of people saying they're tired of hearing me rap about drugs
Tired of other rappers who ain't bringin half the skill as me
saying they wasn't feeling me on "Nobody's As Ill As Me"
I'm tired of radio stations telling fibs
Tired of J-L-B saying "Where Hip-Hop Lives"

But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick
without a condom on, while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big enough ass for the whole world to kiss

You know what I'm saying?
I'm tired of all of this bullshit
Telling me to be positive
How'm I 'sposed to be positive when I don't see shit positive?
Know what I'm sayin?
I rap about shit around me, shit I see
Know what I'm sayin? Right now I'm tired of everything
Tired of all this player hating that's going on in my own city
Can't get no airplay, you know what I'm sayin?
But ey, it's cool though, you know what I'm sayin?
Just fed up
That's my word

Subway Performers

Every time I take the F train, I always see someone performing, either in the train itself or at one of the stops. Usually its at Broadway & Lafayette (in the afternoon). I was used to seeing these dudes bang away at some buckets n pans as if they were drums and make some reeeeally insane beats. But this time was different! The other day, I saw these two characters and I HAD to take a pic...Unfortunately, I was in a rush to go home so I didnt get out of the train to get a better angle on them...



The one in pink was playing the Cello...and the other guy was playing the xylophone. It actually sounded pretty cool. I hope I get to see em again. I'll definitely take a better shot!

Peace

Turd!!!!

LOL This is amazing. A few days ago, I was coming home from the laundrymat and I just happened to glance on the side of the building with a flier on it. I took a closer look and saw that it said: "Reward $1000 For Turd" lmao! It looked so funny to me..I figured someone was just being silly, so I took a picture of it...



I thought nothing of this afterwards...this is...until today. This morning, I was jogging home from the gym and I passed by the same building. On the same spot that the flier had been before, someone (I'm assuming the same person) left another message...And I just HAD to take a picture!



LMAO CLASSIC ISN'T IT!? Now I really want to know who this Turd is! Friggin hilarious! :-) Kudos to whoever you are, meng. KUDOS!
