I had an interesting 2 weeks. I filled my life with love, music and art and trash compacted them in to a solid tiring 14 days. Mexico was a beautiful time especially with her. It was everything I wanted it to be and more. It was a great vacation from my busy life in the bay area. I tried to make most of the day to enjoy it because I knew that this would probably be the only time I would have to enjoy my self.
Once I came back from Mexico, I dealt with family. That was exhausting in itself due to circumstances I would rather keep personal. I was picked up by JNL, and we worked on music from 7:00pm - 12:00am Sunday-Tuesday and Friday at Yuco. We knocked out 4 tracks and I do have to say that the music is excellent. Quality and content are strong and I am excited about that. Working on music is draining considering I was staying at Rodney's Brother's house all week. I was greatful to have that opportunity to link with an old friend and just hang out with good company. We just shot the shit and talked about us for a change and what was going on with our lives.
Monday morning I did the Made photo shoot and that was interesting as well. I am happy with the outcome and I am excited to work more with the SX-70. The digital shots were great but the SX-70 made everything way too sexy.
Wednesday I was in the studio with Rodney, and Jason came to visit us and we had a good time just catching up and be grown folks with it. Jason looks healthy and happy and that makes me feel good about how things ended up.
Thursday we went to La Cita and I met up with my rowdy cousins. I was already on one from the BBQ that Jeff had before we even arrived at the club. I realized young people are crazy, and some times they have to be put in their place, and luckily I was the one to put my young cousin in his place rather than some angry stranger. I thank god I was there for that reason. I realize that I was young one and I try not to be frustrated, I should try to be more understanding.
I left Rodney's Friday night after my last studio session with JNL. She greeted me happy early birthday, which I was thankful for, but I realized I would be spending my birthday alone. Im fine with that, some times thats just how life has to be, I dont feel alone because I know I have a close group of people who love me.
Saturday night I went to Burbank because my younger cousin turned 21. I drank more than I should have of liquor I really hate and came home 3 hours before my train left to San Diego.
I left for San Diego 7:00am Sunday morning to get ready to do a photo shoot of some retro BMX Bikes that DJ Bluballz creates. I found their bike culture to be pretty interesting. They are all original parts. no remakes. I road around Pacific Beach and shot alot of their bikes. I was still hung over from Saturday so I decided to call it an early shoot and go home. I ended up watching the Strangers with friends. and passed out once I got home.
I had some alone time today before I left for the bay. I had a good time out in southern california. I was sad to leave, I wish I had more hours in the day to visit the people that mean the most to me.
I realize after a year people change, some for the best and some for the worst, but the fact is people change. We have no control over it. I think the people that are the same every time you see them, they are your true friends. Some times peoples feelings get hurt, others make wrong decisions, but I am not in control of their feelings or their lives. It sadness me some times, but life goes on and now I'm here in the bay realizing I have too many things to take care of! I miss you all, and I hope I see you all soon.
