woosah 100th post

i've been kinda mia lately, and that's entirely due to classes starting again. not only am i spending a good 40 hours a week between classes and homework, i also have a job now too, so i on a daily basis i don't usually get the chance to come online and post something. today, however, is a different story.. i don't have class until 2:00 tomorrow (and how i can't wait for it!). anywayyyyy.

one thing i wanted to start doing blog wise in addition to posting more pictures is giving my two cents on new shit that's coming out. i haven't been doing it much lately because let's face it, most of the street wear business is for dudes and i'm tryna take a step back from dressin like a bro all the time. kanye's recent collab with louis vuitton, however, totally got me pumped today.

now i've never been one for spending insane amounts of money at louis vuitton (mainly because, let's face it, i can't afford it). but i'm telling you. these kicks could very well be my first louis purchase. i love them.i love the gray, and surprisingly, i love the hot pink. but my absolute favorite detail is the gold bear that's on the laces. I FUCKING LOVE THESE SNEAKERS. i feel like if i actually got them i would be way too chicken shit to wear them, but we shall see. i could end up wearing them every day. very impressed mr. west, very impressed.

WHAT A DREAM.

i don't know why, but for some reason last night i was super super nervous before i went to bed. i don't know if it was a combination of talking to certain people before bed, the events of the night, or for some reason being really freaked about classes starting again. whatever it was, it made falling asleep really difficult and made waking up in the middle of the night real frequent. somehow though, between the nerves and the sleepless syndrome, i managed to have quite an odd dream.the dream starts with darryl and i just getting out of class. we go to the cafeteria to grab some food, and on our way to lafayette (i don't know why we were going there) we see five open house signs. since we were looking for an apartment, we decide to take a look. at the first apartment, we notice that there is a sign for an office and we decide to stop in to talk to the owner. as soon as we step into the office, there is a woman standing at a podium, the rest of the room is jam packed with people. the woman at the podium is holding a phone in the air yelling "WHO CAN GO TO EUROPE WITH DIDDY FOR TWO DAYS???"to my surprise, nobody offered to go to europe with diddy! i was so confused, so i raised my hand and said "umm....when?" and the lady quickly responds with "STARTING TOMORROW". i explain to her that i would go with him, but i don't have a passport so i'd need to see if there was a way i could get an entertainer's passport that could be used just for this trip. she starts to get really frustrated with me and ends up just handing me the phone. i asked her what she wanted me to do with it and she said, "talk to diddy". everyone left the room.i get on the phone with diddy and explain to him the situation and he tells me to call this woman who works for the government and ask her about it. i couldn't understand what name he said so i asked him to repeat it. randomly i turned around and the woman's name and phone number was written on a chalkboard that wasn't there before. i awkwardly nodded and gave the phone back to the lady.

then i woke up for real because i thought i missed obama's inauguration speech. i tried to fall back into the dream, but i couldn't.

BUMMER.

oh good lord. totz speechless.

completely trashed watching double shot at love. so weird.

tonight was so nice. real update tomorrow. night probably.

pulling the kind of blog blogging i never thought i'd pull.

straight from ian's tired mind.

In the cave: 11-12

Me & ash were in a sparse crowd of friends and friends of friends who decided to come out in the cold. The music was confusing we couldnt decide if we love it or hate it because we couldnt dance to it. It was inspiring in the end because we came up with a 'clever' rhyme i wrote down in my phone after. I got a buzz from my christmas present. We left to go get warm/ food.

In the womb: 12-2

After we ordered our food, We got into a good talk about where we see ourselves after school/ the state of our lives/ how there are really on 2 types of gay guys: brooklyn and manhattan. I told ash that I would have drank more tonight if I were alone for the wrong reasons and was glad to be out. Discussing things rationally made me upset and alone. I felt like the tomato basil soup in front of me was the best thing I had for a second. Ash thought she saw LL Cool J and followed him with her eyes. Cafeteria is full of couples in a chelsea atmosphere at an odd hour on an odd night. Couples are making out, drunk, going to the bathroom together and then theres me and ash dancind in our seats to hercules & love affair like were getting paid. Some of the waiters are remotely cute. As Ash watches LL Cool J I was sitting across her staring blankly in front of me thinking about how cold I was and how I just wanted to go sleep. I just wanted one of the waiters dressed in brown like a ups man to gently guide me as if i were attached to a fluid bag in a hospital. The moment was all about me and pleasing me. I was guided to the back of the kitchen and there was a brown bed waiting for me in a dark corner. Together me and the waiter lie down, ignoring our surroudings and quickly subside to sleep. Then when the dream can get no better i focus again on ash, and on the candle beneath her and ask about LL Cool J. He left and we never found out if it was him. I accidentally left my card in the place and when we went back to get it, the waiter with it subtly hits on me. Odd and unusual night.

In the Subway: 2-3

*GROAN*

took another nyquil. i should be sound asleep soon. i. can't. wait.

idk why shaq's tweets don't show up on my twitter feed anymore.. but SHAQ YOU A HORSE!!!

well. at least the rats aren't runnin' around.

i was just about to start a new series of small paintings on paper when i came across this.wtf, mcdonalds. wtf.

homeboy FREAXX me out

enjoying my final days of not working. on wednesday, i'll be working for the first time since august. i didn't work at all last semester, and this semester i'm totally od-ing on having things to do besides school. ahhh well.

dudes on craigslist are a riot.


that's all.

just decided homeboy at abrcramby looks more like tyson beckford than tyrese

i've been staring at this picture of anderson cooper on my desktop since new years eve. every time i see it, i just stare for a minute and think about how i want to spend a minute indulging in my number one silver fox and blog about him. strange that i'm just getting around to it now.

ian and remy were over tonight and we spent a majority of the night chillin and watching tv. lots of news related programs for us, which is totally out of the ordinary. a little jon stewart, a little stephen colbert, a little anderson cooper. cooper was obv the best out of the three, followed by stephen colbert because he's actually funny, and finally jon stewart.

on new years eve ian and i watched anderson cooper and kathy griffin hosting their version of a new years celebration from times square. there was a totally hilarious dynamic between the two of them. i think it had something to do with kathy being SUPER comfortable (maybe overly comfortable??) around gay guys and coop trying to keep the mood on a more serious note. he was definitely confused by a couple things kathy said, which made for an awkward silence, which was funny. especially after sipping on champagne from a flask! (thanks mom~)

anyway. all this watching and obviously individually silently questioning coop got me and ian on a "let's see what we can find out about anderson cooper" spree on the interwebs. the best of coop: he has good blood (related to the vanderbilt's who owned the breakers mansion in newport, rhode island.....hubba hubba), was a model in his pre-teen and early teen years for calvin klein and macy's (just to name a few.....hubba hubba), he works out at one of the equinox gyms in the city where he showers in his undies (because he doesn't want people to see what he's workin with.....hubba hubba), and, HE DATES BOYS HALF HIS AGE.....HUBBA HUBBA.

right after we watched ac 360 tonight i got this weird urge to watch queer as folk. i was missing me some gale harold in my life. i don't really have anything to say about him, except that he's amazing and i can't figure out if he's all wifey'd up or not. he could totz be my anderson cooper and i could totz be his half-age boy~~
as soon as he ages more (or stops coloring his hair, whichever comes first), he could totally be my new number one silver fox. until then, a gay man controls my silver fox life. FIGYAHS.

dj dj dj cumming in my mouth

had a great night last night. me and ian will have photos of it so soon. theo told me about a video from the ninja sonik performance here at school. all'a me and kish's moves got us a cameo for a hot second!

VIMBY - Ninjasonik

i got a mad case of the nerves right now.

i've been pretty absent from this shit lately.. got back to bk and immediately started getting myself settled and figuring out what i'm doing with my life. i think i got all that under control right now... but i have an interview today and i'm nerve-wrecked for it. seriously. don't like this shit.

no school has left me with a lot of time to do really enjoyable things, like take insanely long walks around the city, read all my favorite design blogs, paint and take pictures. and re-arrange my room. to the MAX. i found these new packaging concepts on a blog that i absolutely love.with this entire packaging package (hah) i love how they've made everything relate to each other. no piece in this set looks like it doesn't belong. and the color palette is pretty great, too. seeing things like this makes me really excited to graduated. this is the kind of stuff i want to do for the rest of my life! bags and business cards and cup holders and carry out boxes! aye aye aye!

this is another one that really caught my eye:and this is just fucking hilarious. this is milk. it's called teet. like a teet that milk comes from. and the packaging look like teets. that you would suck milk out of. and on the side of the teet holder it says "you, suck". CLEVER AS HELL. i'm thinking this must be an asian product. i don't even like milk, but if i ever saw these i would buy them based on packaging alone.

..just like the new coke aluminum bottles. have you seen them? if not, you're missing out. i spent two fitty on one of them muhfuckas just because i wanted to drink out of that sexy new bottle. lemme tell you... it was worth it. and it's reusable forever! hallelu!

people who, for some reason, i don't like to see on my tv.

happy new year y'all. hope it was a good one. i sat alone in my room for a majority of the night until 11 when ian decided to stop by. spent the first couple hours of 2009 in bed with a glass of champagne and keith haring. may that be a sign of what's to come!

i don't think i'm going to come up with a new year's resolution this year. in the past i've found that i can't hold true to them. but i am, however, going to try to blog about more things that my dear dear readers can relate to more. yes, yes, you're welcome. the same entries of things that are just bouncing off my noggin, and more visual content that stimulates you're mind. i'm sure the two people that read this will be uncontrollably excited over this.

so for starters, i wanna talk about the actor pictured above, fabrizio filippo. i don't like him. as an actor he creeps me out, and just seeing his face, i get a little uncomfortable. my first introduction to him was in queer as folk. towards the end of the second season, beginning of the third, this fella plays ethan gold, a violinist who captures the heart of justin and steals him away from brian, thus making me hate this time period in the entire qaf series. some of you might have remembered his face from that really old late nght mtv series "undressed"? does anyone besides me even remember "undressed"? i feel like i am lone in remembering that series. for some reason i found it interesting, but then again i was, how old? ten?
i thought i would never see fabrizio the violinist actor again after suffering through his stint on queer as folk, but to my dismay, i just ran into him again. [or at least what i believe is him. i just checked fab's track record on imdb.com, and nothing is listed for the tudors, but i swear to you, i've too much experience with this face to be wrong! ahah ha!]
just like he stole brian away from justin, he acted as a kinda of distraction for a hot minute for anne boleyn in the series "the tudors". once again he's back with his fucking violin being a court jester, runnin' a muk givin' people ear orgasms and me a load of unnecessary and sort of inexplicable stress. luckily, in this series, he lasts a mere two episodes, if that, and doesn't have sex with anyone, so i don't have to see him nekkid.

what do you think of him? attractive or no?


EDIT: he appears again! playing the violin shirtless with a man standing in his doorway who says "that was beautiful". this then goes on to repeat acts as seen on queer as folk. figures. i spoke too soon. though, in these scenes i'm not sure if it's him. maybe the casters pulled a fresh-prince and replaced the actor?
