Back

So, I've been neglecting my blog due to laziness. I wish I could make it more exciting around here. I should update more. I've been meaning to, but like I said - laziness. So ultimately, here's what should be a lazy post.
About the two photography classes I attended, they were pretty fun. I met some cool and friendly people. The Creative Lighting for Studio Portraits class was probably the most memorable, since we were all aged 20+, experienced, more outgoing and mingly. It was also fun being able to work with models, and it was cool because people seemed to think that I had a connection with models. Not one to brag, but they said I had 'control'. I know... I'm dead sexy. Plus I got to make friends with one of the models, so.. what you got to say about that? Thought so.
Mmm I've mostly been watching movies and series on my computer, listening to music and making music. My sister's attending this leadership thing she was invited to in New York (enter Theme from New York, New York). She's staying with her friends at her friend's uncle's house in New Jersey and apparently she's having fun, so way to go Carlton!
As you might have noticed, I stopped doing my 365s because I couldn't keep up with it. I might start all over again sometime though. I'm currently listening to the Theme from New York, New York. Fun, fun.
I keep falling into weird sleeping patterns. And speaking of sleeping (I just wrote 'sleeping of patterns' but I corrected it), I'm trying to become a lucid dreamer. Haven't had much luck though. Sometimes I forget, but I'm trying.
The other night last week, I slept over at my brother's apartment. That was pretty cool.
I started DJing on blip.fm. it's nothing special, but what I like most about it is that I get to discover so much good music through other people. It's connected to Twitter. The only people I follow on Twitter are my sister, Kevin Nealon, Jon Favreau and some musicians like Deftones and Limp Bizkit. Call me strange, but I like reading Tweets. I don't know why. Follow me if you want though I'm not really into Twitter. I might be though if I was still in Canada or knew some friends who use it.
I started making beats again. They mostly come off as dark, and contrasty to what I'd [usually] come up with for my 3rd album (beats compilation) but I kinda like that. I figure I could throw those into a [separate] 4th album.
I'm planning to start writing some short films. I need to get a notebook to write all my ideas down and whatnot. And then I need to force myself to get on Final Draft and start typing out some scripts.
I'm still reading Watchmen. And now I must go. I don't know what else to write about except what I just remembered, which is that I bought 2 books I've wanted to read - The Life of Hunter S. Thompson 'Gonzo', and Choke by Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club). I actually started Choke back in Toronto, like in December 2007 or something, but my roommate Ed had to leave and it was his so I never got to finish it. I used to read it sitting in the can...

One Love.

Holy god almighty you made a post and I missed it by like a million days! Shows how much I'm lacking in the land of le blog.
You know..I need to take your example and update my blog more than once a month.
Also..I seen someone do a "52 weeks" project..so instead of taking a self portrait every bloody day, he took one a week. It was pretty awesome because he could put some effort and thought into each photo..so they all turned out pretty spiffy. I'll be here cheering for you when you start up again!! =D
