Speaking of Sex and the City, anyone wanna go see it?

Please My Favorite, Don't be Sad

Right past the Fireflies that Sleep in My Heart

Last night I went out to some bars with Kevin and Mikey. Carlos left earlier but I wish he was there with me. I think Bar Nine was the one we landed on, and proceeded to get drunk. Actually, we got pretty wasted and I talked about some shit that I really shouldn't have. The combination of the puking, loss of motor skills and crying really made me feel shitty for the rest of the night. And not to mention I was having a pretty deep existentialist meltdown too about my place in the universe. I don't even know why I felt the need to even fucking blog about it. I guess it just feels therapeutic to let it out. Well, this past week has been nice and the rest of the summer does look promising. I think I can drink to that..sans the bad feelings. Now I'm leaving Kevin's house and have class from 6-9 later today and thursdays too. Awesome.

As I Look Upon the Myriad Harbour

The past few months, especially the last couple of weeks, has probably been some of the best in my life. Sometimes I want to cry about all the fucked up shit in my life and the world around me, but now I feel like I'm finally on my way to finding myself. I've met so many good people and I'm grateful that they're in my life. Now that I think about it, I can't wait for this summer and the rest of my life. Good people, good food, good music, good books and good art.

For the first time in my life, I feel hopeful about the future.
Thank you!

i wrote "my life" in that exact succession too many times. haha

Pass the Wine

I went for a walk today and thought about some things. More so my existence in this world. Is there a purpose for my being? For living? Sometimes I feel like I'm giving so much to people who don't even care how I am. Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I did things differently. Whatever, I want this semester to be over with.

Maybe this summer New York will be kind to me..

Spitting Hot Bonfires

Nas was amazing.the Dream sounded terrible. We saw Orions Belt and the Little Dipper and burned some awesome wood. I can't wait for summer. hellllll yess

New Chrome Messenger Bag!

My brand new Chrome Citizen bag came in the mail yesterday. It's comfortable beyond belief. I didn't expect it to be as big as it was. Enough space for cigarettes, books and water! I might opt for the Kremlin or Sultan Roll-top bag this summer, providing I do more traveling and build a new fixie or ss.

Here's a link because I don't have my camera with me. Pictures and maybe more in-depth review as I test it to follow.

My new love!

Peter Gronquist at Gallery 1988

HAHAHA YES!
I completely forgot about this!

Over the years, we've seen fashion powerhouses put their own signatures and styles on all kinds of products, but Peter Gronquist's display of embellished weapons at LA's Gallery 1988 is definitely a first. The exhibition showcases an arsenal of weapons including AK's, rifles, chainsaws, grenades, and even electric chairs. All these instruments of death are covered with patterns and logos from labels such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Versace, Coach, Burberry, Fendi, and Dolce & Gabbana. The exhibition only lasts till May 16th, so go check it out if you're ever in LA.

Illmatic

What's that? Nas? Yes? Yes!

Happy Birthday Keith Haring

I am the man who loves you

The news was broken to me by my roommate this morning that Stephen Stakey, a freshman, died yesterday at the Roth Regatta.

Here is the exert from Stephen's About Me Section:

"Well I'm Stephen (insert one of many nicknames here). I am a computer science major at Stony Brook University. I am a lavagator. I spend too much time on my computer, but I love tweaking and building them and just learning about them in general. I was valedictorian of my class at Mattituck High School (yay monopoly money!) and love intellectual conversations (especially when it comes to computers and hacking) and the North Fork.

I am a bit quiet and shy, but that usually doesn't last too long with new people. I am a blogger who just sometimes can't understand the rest of the world and it's technology decisions. I am a former Microsoft MVP which explains the seemingly endless supply of free software I have.

Why not friend me?"

Stephen Stakey passed out yesterday, 5/2/08, at mid-day for unknown reasons. He passed out at the Stony Brook Regatta, and the amazing Stony Brook Volunteer Ambulance Corps reacted in seconds stabilizing him and rushing him off to the Stony Brook Hospital. We then recieved word shortly after that he had died at the hospital, the reason still unknown pending an autopsy.

Shit like this really makes me grateful that I'm still alive.
Go out and appreciate life.
My thoughts are with his family and friends. R.I.P.

Keith Haring 50th Birthday Memorial

For Keith Haring's 50th birthday on May 4th, the Deitch Projects with the help of Goldman Properties, the Keith Haring Foundation and Gotham Scenics have reproduced one of Haring's most stunning pieces in his illustrious career. The huge wall only lasted a few months before it was painted over but it would go down in art and neighborhood history as one of the most memorable works for its vivid colors and trademark Haring aesthetics. The wall was painstakingly redone via old archival photographs taken during the wall's original inception in 1982. The wall will be on display from May 4th until December 21st at Houston St. and Bowery in New York.

I actually has the privilege of watching this beautiful wall being painted about two weeks ago. This will do the man proud.

One Nation Under CCTV

So in my art class we watched a brief interview with Barry McGee and I realized why graffiti was such an important part of my life.

I haven't felt this inspired to do something like this in a long time.



I have my paint and my ideals and that's all I need.
