Well I failed horribly at my 366. It was just too much going on to be honest with me getting into the accident and all. I will take pictures to my best ability every day though. Well my homie Francis swang thru my new spot to say whussup. He is one of the co-creators of Above Average. Keep an eye out.

Can I kick it?

Well today I worked out for the first time in like 2 years. Let's just say my body is super tired. Anyways, I went to a little kickback last night and it was pretty chill. Hookah, drinks, and good friends.

Well today was the day that I moved into my new spot. Didn't get much shooting done besides my new room mate and his dog. Excited for what has to come!

Crash and burn.

So I thought it was going to be a normal friday. I ended up getting into a car accident and had the crappiest day I've had in a long time. Basically I was about 2 minutes away from work this morning and I was at a stop light. All of a sudden i hear brakes screech and I got rear ended. Basically the whole front end of her car crumbled up. I ended up going to the emergency room. Now I am in this stupid neck brace and on hella medication. Well, time for me to go to sleep again. Tonight is my last night in my apartment and let me tell you...I am one sad guy tonight.

You bring hot sauce in your purse?

We all have that one friend that is addicted to hot sauce. Ling is seriously that girl. She came over for dinner and brought her own hot sauce. I swear...If I ever were to cut here she would bleed siracha hot sauce...

Mike Dash E- IAMHUSTLE mixtape

FEATURED ARTIST
I got the pleasure of meeting Mike sometime last year at the Blue Flame 2 concert. I always heard about the dude, but never took a deep look into his whole campaign. I've talked to him every once in awhile on twitter and he turned out to be a real chill guy. He currently dropped his IAMHUSTLE MIXTAPE today and let's just say he is creating a real big buzz right now. From the bay area out to Hawaii, I've been getting people asking me who he is. I'm glad that this year we are coming together to bring a few new projects and collaborate on a few things. Keep your eyes open and hustle.

I ended up calling in sick to work today. I feel like I missed out on money, but I needed my rest to try and get back on my feet. The cough I have is seriously hard to deal with. Well decided to take a photo of my car since I didn't go out besides to go to the doctor to get a note for work since they wanted me to. I have a lot of things I want to do to my car, but it takes time and money.

I've been really sick lately. Today was the first time I went to the doctor in about 2 or 3 years. It was kinda weird. My chest has been on fire and I've been having difficulty breathing. Went to work, went to the doctor and then pretty much fell asleep around 5 and work up around 10:00. I feel pretty crappy right now, so yeah... Hopefully the medicine works.

Packing.

2012-01-02T22:25:00.000-08:00

2/336
Well I spent the bulk of my day in bed. I woke up around 1:30 pm and just was being a lazy sack of potatoes. It's my last week in my apartment and I started the packing process. It's weird to think that one year ago, I moved into my own place. It was a big learning experience for me. Especially since I moved in with my girlfriend. I've grown a lot since last year. I learned that I barely had enough for bare minimums like food and toilet paper. It was definitely a struggle to rent out a spot, so we both decided to make different living arrangements. Well half the apartment is packed and it's mostly the bulkier items that need to be moved. It's going to be sad when I leave, but when one door closes, another opens.

Begin.

2012-01-01T20:02:00.000-08:00

Bringing in the new year has got to be an exciting chapter to me. I take a look back at what happened to me last year and I learned a lot. I also think it's time for new beginnings. As for me and Kayla, she is moving back with her family and I will be moving in with a few friends. I am about to join Mike Dash E's campaign called 3rd World Hustle. As for projects I am starting a 365...no, I'm starting a 366. It's a leap year, which means I get to take one extra picture for this year. Another project I am doing is called "The Other Side." I want to keep you hanging with that one, but I will give you a hint, I am working with Asa Akira on this one. Just google her if you don't know who she is. Some of my many big plans also coincide with Dj Jack with shows all over the bay area. As for last night, I spent it with my friend Joey out in Fremont. Met a whole bunch of new people and just had a good time.

It's been a yearly ritual when my friend's mom leaves to Egypt for 4 months at a time to throw parties at his house. This tradition has been going on for a good 6 years now and last night I got to go back to the spot where all my partying began. It was a mix of a bunch of people old and new. It seemed like just yesterday we were all still in highschool worrying about the test we had coming up, but it was different this time. I felt a little older this time. This wasn't something I had to sneak out to go to. It was great to see all my old friends.

Stockton parties.

Once again I got to do some event coverage and chill with some friends of mine. Shout out to Dj Jack for always inviting me to go with him to events like this. I finally got to meet Starting Six and talked to them about covering their next shows. I also met a lot of people that I haven't formally met such as Mike Dash E, Young Bari, and several other rappers. To my surprise, I was in the V.I.P. and met Clyde Carson. Overall, this shit was smackin'.

2011-07-03T00:41:00.000-07:00

They may seem like just a bunch of friends, but from what I got to see today was more then that. What I saw today was brotherhood. In my opinion, they aren't just a b-boy crew. They joked and messed around, but when it come to it they got down to business. Ladies and gentlemen, look out for this well established b-boy crew. At the end of the day, the homies took home the 3 v. 3 competition.
