Subject: an idea

i was thinking that if we only changed clothes once a week we could restructure time. it would require a certain level of denial about certain structures already in place of course, but think it could really make a difference in terms of the way we use and think about alloted time and if the whole world were complicit then we will have essentially succeeded in slowing the passage of time, who cares about the actual fact of things, the revolution of the moon is a mere footnote.

anyways, time passes so fast for me these days, i feel like this is already the case.

Strawberry Fields this morning.


This morning I woke up in the middle of a dream, I suppose, reading the scrolling lyrics of Strawberry Fields Forever, as if I were in a Karaoke bar. It was 5:15 but I didn't really have to get up until 6:30. I tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't. It's something that has been happening to me more often lately. I can't sleep right. I think I am having some generalized anxiety issues. I had to get out of bed and work on something. So I made this bad photoshop piece, depicting my hippie dream. Does hearing the Beatles music in my dreams make me a hippie or just lucky? I don't know, but I rarely even remember my dreams so this was a welcome change.

Virginia Beach, yesterday...


We skated John's TF and then went looking for some street spots. We didn't find much, which is pretty well documented here. NIck got a lot of footage from the day though and I am assuming a webisode is to follow...

Killer Bro Vibes


Gnarly Neal has officially started a blog. He is in a fraternity at UVA. This could get crazy. KillerBroVibes.blogspot.com John Chaplain might have met his match in this category.


*oh, and I have no idea why it looks like I am smelling his beer, I think I was trying to drink it.

Class work

I had to make an animated .gif for my Computer Graphics class, demonstrating the technique using Photoshop. It had to last at least 30 seonds, and the topic had to do with "Increasing Awareness." I kept it simple, scanning in hand drawn images and text.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

*Blogger wouldn't host the original size, so it was resized on Photobucket.

Nick loves JuJu!

End of the night.
