What I’m upto….

SO things have been quite busy and like may of my blog posts I’ll try and sum them up in the best possible way starting right now….

Work is hecktick, I’m in the middle of setting up a mother of a site for one of our clients, its truly a daunting task I hope it can get off the ground there are so many intricate levels to this site that I hope it comes out working.

Tomorrow I head up north to do some prelim specing for a video shoot coming up in the next few weeks, should be a nice day venture then back to the city.Might prove to be fun.

The kid is well on her way, while we were in NYC my dad finished painting the room, and I should post some pics shortly on the peanut blog. In the meantime we are busy picking out names which is taking along time cause there are quite a few girl names I’m stoked on. Plus we have all this great kid stuff I want to start building but we are getting the floor re-finished in the kids room so once that is done we can start building things.

NYC was awsome I wish we could have stayed longer, I suppose I should post some pics from that too.

Home work is taking longer than expected, I have to finish the kismet films site which I put on hold for a while, same with teh maple racing site, comps are done but I need to photograph stuff with paul so that still needs to be done. Plus there is the constant updates to the dance site and the skateshop these things keep me busy, if only I could make a living off helping friends.

My new skates have sat unskated for about a month now, its a damn shame cause I really want to skate but the days I find that I have the time the weather tells me its too wet outside… Damn.

Exclusives™ v2.0 is in the works some new site styling plus more linking goodness plus I’m sure there are some Exclusive™ things in the works, but more on that later. That and I should reallly get around to getting Another™ up and going but thats going to be a while.

Thats it in a nutshell, oh and I bought a copy of maya off of ebay and need to install that when I get a chance, should prove to keep me busy when the kid is up till all hours in the morning, ah I’m not busy at all.

damn

Day to day I work on some similar brands, matter of fact they are basically 100% automotive and even then I’m down to a few brands I deal with exclusively if you will.

Being a person of constant change my mind gets going on what it would be like to work on some “dream clients” every designer has them, their top tier clients they would perhaps lay a portion of their body and soul down for some quality design time. Some of mine are as follows.

Shaolin Training

Growing up I got kinda into martial arts, there was a studio down the road from my parents house in an industrial complex that I attended for about 2 years. I got out of doing karate and ju jitsu in favor of getting a job at the shoe store. But before I left the dojo I had a chance to take some kung fu classes. It would be your typical old man taining you, his sense of humor strangly funny lead the class. I really got into kung fu more that I had with karate and ju jitsu and quickly found myself only attending the kung fu classes and skipping the karate. I always found it to be more enjoyable of a class, my body felt better doing the motions and forms of kung fu.

For years I’ve always meant to get back into it, but since my first experience was so enjoyable I didn’t want to try another dojo, part of the appeal was that it was right down the street withing easy walking distance. Now that I’m no longer at home I cant see myself driving to take a class. But yesterday while in Chapters I saw a familiar face, it was that of Sifu Shi Yan Ming. A 34th generation shaolin monk. I had seen him on TV on TLC or discovery and was always intrigued by his studio in NYC and the story of his life. So I picked up his book. The Shaolin Workout : 28 Days to Transforming Your Body and Soul the Warrior’s Way I started reading last night, I can honestly say the book has already put great thoughts into my head and I look forward to taking on kung fu again. Even tho alot of the training will be solo I’m pretty confident that I’ll remember much of what I had learned before and that I can get my body polished as they say in the book and regain my energy and self confidence. I’m stoked on this.
