A Wise Man Once Wrote...

And he definitely still is. Go visit http://www.gotmilkfart.blogspot.com and you'll see what I mean. For back in 2003, this great guy (yes girls, he's single...he's DA MAN!!) made a post specifically for me and my situation at the time. Although it is now only a blur in my memory, it still has residual strength that will continue for many years to come. Thanks Jay. That year was definitely one of the best.

So people, click here http://gotmilkfart.blogspot.com/2003/10/at-that-age.html and listen to Brand New Heavies, "Stay This Way" (The Heavy Mix). Really smooth combination. hahaha

I'll speak more of this soon...so stay tuned.

Live It Up, Thug Lolas, and Foam?

Yeahh yeahh....that's right, "Live It Up"!! Well, the song from John Legend. Really good song, uplifting even. But I was sort of disappointed with the CD, expecting more soulful songs. AWWWW...it is good nonetheless. Ahem...anyways, on to other things.

Last night was definitely fun. Who knew that a friend's (James' family. Thanks a bunch man!) Grandmother's 80 year-old party would be so interesting and enjoyable. Not that I was expecting it to be boring. That's almost an impossibility if Rocky and Jay are there. hahaha But really, it was hilarious, I couldn't stop laughing. But damnn...Filipino parties are the best! They gotta be...the food (chicken, and those cookies...can't beat those), music (a live band too at this one), dancing, friends, people you sorta know...it's great! And that feeling at the party...I can't explain it really. I've DJed many Filipino events in my short lifespan...first bdays, Weddings, Debuts....but even though they're most often strangers, I always feel like I'm at home. And for the band Jay....that's for sure. When we figure out how to play, ohh the music community better watch out (no, I mean they better watch out cause we're good. Not cause we're gonna beat down on our competition. Well, maybe.)

No, that's not really us. You bastards.

As for today? I was awakened by the sound of my sister shouting..actually, to remind me to shovel the driveway. So, I get on my thick Roots, down-filled, puffy jacket (that makes me look like Stay-Puft Marshmallow man, my walkman, and obviously my pants and procede to the driveway.

To my shock. It got colder. I couldn't believe it. Anyways, I continued the task of pushing and throwing the snow with the shovel (*note: you shouldn't throw snow, but I do it anyway because it's fun). As I looked closer and closer to the ground, I began to notice something strange. WTF? PACKING FOAM? I thought I was losing it. What the hell was packing foam (view picture below) doing in the snow? Was this mother nature's way of telling me to stop polluting, so she decides to send some white foam my way, instead of just pure snow?

Well, I finished it quickly and ran...haha. Who knows, maybe there was a possibility of more coming down. Maybe a car bumper was next. Or maybe even a car. THAT wouldn't be too bad.
