I end up making cool little videos to store in my memory bank like the one below.One a my classes ended up letting us out early so there was about a two hour gap between this one and the next. I THINK I SHOULD FIND SOME MORE FRIENDS.
Side note, I finally got my driving permit, so if you don't hear from me in a few weeks then you know what happened. I know what you're thinking, WAY TO OLD, but I think we all have to start somewhere.
Side note's side note, I've almost got 200 followers, YAYY. In truth this was my initial goal from the very beginning, so to see that you [and I] are still very interested in this blog is quite exciting. When the day comes I'll have to do a very special appreciation post, but today I bring you one that is almost completely aimless. Oh well.
Well I'm sure you like these, so if boredom ever kills you, then here's my YOUTUBE and VIMEO link.

Phoenix Turned to Stone
Well of course I watched Runaway silly, how could I not. Truth be told I wanted to post this earlier just to make sure that everything was still fresh in our minds, but I wanted to watch the film/epic music video at least one more time before I decided to express my opinions. Well I did, so....
All in all, I think that the film was done in a very beautiful manner. The cinematography was, as expected, top notch, the audio tracks were most wonderful, the ballet was eye catching, Kanye was Kanye, and our lead Selita Ebanks was quite fetching to the eye
[OH YOU KNOW]. At first I seemed to have a problem with the acting [little that there was], thinking that well, they couldn't act. Watching it again, I noticed that it was more of an art house, minimalistic vibe goin on, so for the benefit of the doubt I'll just say that the dry dialogue was meant to be dry on purpose.
The wardrobe choices were just too legit. Every time I see Kanye
[on and off the stage] he makes me feel like I need two things: gold chains and chest hair. I don't know what it is with this guy, but he's just bleeding cool--ALWAYS. Everything was just done so well, I really enjoyed....except for those wings though. It was a little too obvious that someone was pulling the strings up above when they were fully extended, and the green screen action was just a little too green screeney, but that doesn't really affect how much I enjoyed the video. Simply put the film was awesome, and if this is what new Kanye has to offer then I don't think I'm going to object to him sticking around. Stay up Yeezy.

If by chance you couldn't find the time to catch it on television
[I didn't], then don't fret, it's all right HERE, advertisement free of course.

Deadbeat Summer
So you and I are friends right? AT LEAST I THOUGHT WE WERE. There is no reason for any of you to not of informed me of Neon Indian [real talk]. You know I love a good band, why was I left out of the loop? I thought we had a relationship--now I feel as if you've broken that bond of trust we have had. Anyway, I think I might of fallen in love. Every time I find myself a new artist
[this goes for all genres] I do some heavy thinking, pacing back and forth in my head trying to see if my lust for them is legitimate or if it's just another passing moment that soon subsides. The latter isn't the case....I think what we have might just be real.
And as for YOU guys, I think you've got some making up to do. If you ever feel like you wanna put me on an artist, please don't be shy, I likes the good music.
OOPS, I forgot to tell you. I decided that I liked Neon Indian so much that I wanted to make my own unofficial music video slash blog promotion dance flick. I've been told that my moves are a mix between a 14 year old white kid and a 60 year old black man. Hey, at least it's my own.

Bow Tie Fever
So I finally broke down and bought one....I'm excited. We all know that I'm an Ebay hound, and I can get pretty relentless when I'm gunning for what I want. Luckily enough I didn't have to work too hard for this one, dude had a bunch. It was about 9 bucks total if I recall correctly, and beside that unsightly sow line I'm pretty happy with it. Unfortunately, I don't really have anywhere to go that requires me to get all fancy, and if I wear it to school I'll probably feel like a koi fish in a pond filled with tilapia, but who knows, I'll probably be breaking it out sometime soon.
The first two are of me and the others are just cool photos that I thought'd be good to fill out your time here. No lie, I stood in the mirror for at least an hour and a half trying to tie this thing but I want you to know that I did it all for your viewing pleasure. #HOLLABACK

Sperry x Band of Outsiders
I know, more things I can't afford [but I do continue to dream]. If there's one thing that I do love about Sperry x Band of Outsiders [except the price] is that they don't exist in super limited quantities that are only sold on some obscure Japanese website that requires you to list your entire lineage before they allow you to buy the shoe. ALL the shoes are sold right on the Sperry website, allowing anyone who can afford that 200+ price tag to buy at their heart's content. A few of the pieces seem a bit too trendy or maybe even a bit too much for someone to actually be able to wear, but the only reason I say this is probably because I wouldn't be able to pull it off but hey, I'm speaking frankly.
The fall collection is actually pretty neat too, with a lot of your staple items that if taken care of, could last you a lifetime. They've been on this Polaroid kick lately so of course the lookbook was shot in similar fashion to its previous collections. There's also a nice little video for Scott Sternberg [head of the pack] at the end of all this so make sure you check that out too. You're already here aren't you?
Fall/Winter lookbook all right HERE and Sperrys are HERE too. I think it's just easier that way.

Remix Remix Three
THE DUBSTEP EDITION. I know it's probably not okay for one man to be so into another man's music but you know what, "f**k that," Kid Cudi is one of my favorite artist of all time [sorry yeezy] and I am no longer afraid to say it
[I never really was]. I know he's still quite young music wise, but when someone comes along and is able to sing-rap everything that you've been feeling inside then you just can't help but to follow along in every move that they make in their career. To think that I had the opportunity to see him live for 15 bucks only a year and a half ago sickens me, so I guess I'll just have to catch him on the next one. The album is set to release on November 9th so make sure you keep your eyes peeled for that one. Toast to you Cudi.

Like Father Like Son
I'm not even gonna lie, I can't wait to have kids. As a 19 year old alpha male, I probably shouldn't say things like that because in truth I'm really not trying to any time soon, but really--I can't wait [I think you understand]. I think my want of an offspring has less to do with spreading my seed and more so with having a connection with someone who looks up to me to teach them everything they need to know in life. I don't know about you guys, but there are few times where I've had someone actually listen to me just because I was me. Not because they knew I could get them an A on their essay, or because the only way I'll ever shut up is if they let me finish my story, but just because it was me, and they were there, and we were together. It's a great feeling knowing someone loves to hear you ramble on just because they love the way your ramble. It'll be like having the ultimate protégé except this one last forever.
AH WELL, none of this matters though because chicks are, how do you say in twitter, #CONFUSING. You think you know them, and then you don't. You think things are going okay and then you take a second look and realize she's not all over you like you had originally hoped she was. Such is life I suppose. No worries though, I think I have two more lives left so I'll just slip in this quarter and go for the win while I've still got a chance. Game's not over yet.
Now why is this all relevant? Well, one a my favorite brands [Fred Perry] finally got around to adding a kids line to their collection. When I saw it this got me thinking about my life and kids and all that biznazz, so I figured I'd just share my thoughts since this is one of the few outlets that I actually have. Now I don't know how I'm going to afford it considering that a bottom dollar prostitute can walk off with more money annually than any high school teacher I know, but if daddy has a cardigan then so shall son.
