finally someone said it

here's the official video for Jay-Z's new single DOA or "Death of Autotune". personally, i think it's long overdue and couldn't think of a better person to say it.

art

i've been painting a lot more lately. i will try to take some good pictures and post them. they are nothing exciting, but it's good to get back into it. i have some ideas that i want get out, in-time i will. the problem is i can't get my hands to make the paint look how i envision everything.

i will get better as time goes, hopefully i can use this to exhibit my works.

bye friends

oh mann

oh mannn this was a tiring weekend. i was able to see my gf which was great but there's never enough time spent with her. and as always it was hard leaving.

i couldn't get tickets to see Passion Pit either, my connection wasn't able to pull his strings. big bummer but in the end it turned out fine b/c then i would have had to drive from NYC to VT by 12 b/c i was working Sunday. never fun!

im back in VT working, biking a little bit, and working more! have a nice day, bye friends!

boston... i'm gunnin' for YOU!

art

so my brother showed me an artist a while back and since then i've seen his name everywhere. if you're in NYC you've seen his work in SOHO when he was commissioned to paint on some buildings a few months ago.

anyway, the artist i am talking about is Banksy. he's got an exhibit coming up in his hometown of Bristol at the Bristol Museum. here's a video my brother sent me via HighSnobiety. it's a sneakpeak of the show.

ridiculous

in the fall of '08 Ken Block came out with a video of him driving a tuned WRX STi pushing over 500HP showing off crazy driving skills. there was so much buzz around it they had to come back and film a 2nd. they didnt know how to top it, but they did.

recently they released the 2nd video with his brand new "Gymkhana" Subaru WRX STi. the video is crazy! the driving is madness. i wish it showcased more of the driving instead of some of the antics, but it's still insane. here are both videos feel free to watch over and over again to try and understand how he can do this!

it's been a while

sorry friends it has been a while since i have blogged!

i have been busy since moving back to VT. i have been busy with some odd-jobs for friends and it has been taking up all of my time. the weather got nice and was able to hit up the dirt jumps in Stowe and in Johnson, both are riding smoooth!

this past weekend was amazing, so much happened! i had an AMAZING time with my girlfriend, went fishing in the bay, my brother caught dinner (it was delicious). played with my dogs. i gashed my knee wide open, almost had to get stitches. and my brother proposed to his girlfriend Maggie and they are going to be getting married.

in addition, i know what my next move is, well i know where. my girlfriend and I will be looking to move to Boston SOON! my step is to get a job there while she has opportunities to advance within her company or switch to another in Boston.

A lot happened this weekend and it was great! back to real life unfortunately, but now i have a mission!

ill keep you informed friends!
