Since this blog solely serves the purpose of being an electronic collector of my thoughts and experiences, I have no-one to apologize to for the 3-4 month hiatus I have taken from writing. During this 3-4 month period time, I have done a lot of self discovery, traveling, schooling, music making, networking, relationship building/destroying, and recovering. Though hiatus' are normally a deterrent for continuous production, I believe that I received more benefits than injuries from this "brief" break that I had taken. Anyways, I have produced multiple tracks with my buddies Take One (Tommy), C-Enes (Joe), Keswick Productions (Gary), and HK-47 (Hwan); and I am still working on future projects (about 20 to be exact). Soon after this is completed I will be addressing the streets with clean marketing techniques so that I can expose myself (full frontal) to the world. Aside from being back and motivated to write again, I will be finishing up those last blogs shortly (this last sentence is supposed to serve as a reminder for me to write what I have not started writing yet).
But yeah, just got back from the beach. I'm salty and tanned (to a degree) and not ready to go to work. Life is alright, just gotta keep moving forward.

(The 7 yogic chakras, interpreted by Plato and his Greek supporters)
I once read somewhere that people way back in the Greek and Roman empire era once believed that your organs induced emotional states of being, something about blood (sanguine) insinuating happiness and the bile from the spleen aggravating temperament. So due to my uncanny interest, I did some research and found a few more explanations of the once accepted/practiced Greek medicinal belief of the connection between our insides... Continue reading...

(The Monarchs beat The Sharks 4-3 in OT)
Sorry for the delayed post, I'm a jackass sometimes. I get so caught up in vacations sometimes that any sign of work usually repulses me to the point of near regurgitation... and we all know that that is never good. What I did promise was to give you a look into the city of Winnipeg, Canada. I will now present you with the qualitative differences I noticed between us and our top hat (Canada).
1. Winnipegers seem to be kind and optimistic (maybe beca... Continue reading...

I usually forget the rest after that. I never really gave any attention to the full lyrics of a song I used to directly associate the country of Canada with every time I heard anything that had to do with Canada. Now that I am about to be in the country I might as well recite the full lyrics once to myself:
"O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all they sons command.
With glowing heart we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on g... Continue reading...

Yadadadadadadadada. Nonsensical people love to set an example of/critically destroy other people even in the milder situations in life. Now call me careless, but the huge deal that was made about the kids that were let into a JFK flight tower one day after another is a form of media murder. I was able to catch a brief video of the occupants of the flight tower during the time and it appeared, to me at least, that there were a couple of other employees in the flight tower at the time, incl...
