Today I woke up at 6:30am. I don't think I have been awake that early (being awake from the night before doesn't count) in like a year. I didn't mind though, it was definitely worth it :)
In other news. Today I sold my beloved Panda. We had a great run, and many, many, MANY problems along the way, but it was time to part ways. It was kinda sad to watch the new owner drive off in the car I worked so hard to build just how I wanted. I think it is for the best though, it is time to move onto bigger and better things, aka a House, the Preulde, and some traveling.
I shot photos today of a French R&B singer. It was interesting. After waiting for almost two hours for them to show up, I finally got to shoot in the blistering cold for an hour. Talk about miserable. Try standing on the edge of the river taking photos when it is freezing cold and windy. Its lame, trust me. I guess I will post some photos when I get a chance to edit them.
My night ended with seeing City and Colour at the Black Cat with my friend Stephen. I honestly wasnt that impressed with his performance. I had seen a lot of videos on youtube of live performances where he was amazing, but I guess tonight was an off night. Oh well. I still think he is rad.
Tomorrow I will be seeing my friend Jenny Owen Youngs play at DC9. I am sooooo excited!! It has been several months since I have seen her play live and I know she has a few amazing new songs in her arsenal. If you dont know who Jenny is... I dont think we can be friends. Either way, watch this:

Sick.
So somehow I managed to get some sort of stomach flu or something. Wack. Anyway, I have been spending most of my time in my bed but there were a few things that required me to move, mainly, the release of the new collaboration between The Hundreds and Disney. Apparently, only 100 shirts in each design were released worldwide, luckily Palace 5ive was one of the four stores that received them. I'm not positive I want to take it out of the sealed bag so here is a stock photo, I got the one on the left:

This morning when I woke up there was a box on my front steps, addressed to me, from New York. I couldn't remember ordering anything but as soon as I picked it up I knew what it was!

Fader Magazine!!! This story starts out with me shooting the cover of a mixtape for them last summer, it was a lot of fun and I got to meet some really rad people. Fader is one of those companies that you really look forward to working with, ever since that shoot they have taken care of me so well. Right off the bat they gave me a lifetime subscription to the magazine and the mixtape, so every month I have those coming to my house. Its great! Also, when I was in NYC for the Red Bull Experiment in July they invited me over to their office to show me around and hang out. There was so much cool stuff in the office, including Guinness on tap and a huge poster of biggie that was signed by B.I.G. himself. Anyway, im getting off track here. Inside the box was a New Era Fitted Hat, designed by High Places (who you should check out here)this hat is the third in a series of limited edition hats that Fader commissions rad bands to make. I am too lazy to take a photo of the hat so you get another stock photo:

So I have decided that I want a Honda Ruckus. There are so many reasons, but the main one is that they are fucking rad. You can buy all sorts of parts from them all over the internet, mainly at: www.PasswordJDM.com a store I have been buying stuff from for so many years now. I might need to get rid of some of my current toys to get one, but I think it'd be worth it. Here are two of my favorite ones, photos were found on www.Honda-Tech.com

Couldnt pass these up...
They aren't my size, and I dont really mess with Abingtons but the price was right. Thanks goes out to Nick at Palace5 on 14th Street NW.

As promised earlier. Here is what was in that big fancy box on my porch this afternoon. My new Mercier Kilo TT pro. I havent had much of a chance to ride it because I was working on my car, but I took it around the block and its a lot more comfortable than my Fuji. Thanks to my homie Cristian for taking the sick photo while I was drinking a Red Bull and doing nothing. Word!!
