This is a really beautiful song, I’ve been searching for a killer remix but I can’t find it yet, if anyone knows of one tell me pls =)

Why was this week so slow when last week just flew by? I blame the Olympics, which were awesome btw! Such an whirlwind experience and Canada kicked a$$ with 14 gold medals. Nicely done, Go Canada!  (and USA getting silver and coming in 2nd when they thought they’d be 5th was pretty dope too)

So all week I’ve been getting up super early and falling asleep the same time I did when I was 12. Leaving oodles of long hours during the day to do everything I need to do (and I have so much to do right now between work and personal projects which I’ll tell you more about later ) not to mention I’m moving at the end of the month so I have to start looking at new places as well.

Went to see The Crazies the other night, I didn’t want to see it because I thought it was about something else, so I was pleasantly surprised. Its pretty gory tho. I hate movies where I have to cover my eyes for half of it- I’m pretty sure I can live a full, content life not knowing what someone looks like strapped to a table being stabbed to death with a pitchfork. If that’s your brand of vodka however, you really should go see it.

A friend showed me this, oh the wonders of facebook. I alternately laughed and then felt bad for the girl then laughed again. Your thoughts? Is it too much?

It was 6:45 am and I wake up to someone yelling ‘Are you reaadyyyyyy?’ and loud music. I go to the balcony and look down to see the street lined with people with umbrellas and cop cars stationed at all corners. Suddenly the song switches and an Olympic torch runner comes jogging down the middle of the street, to meet another guy with an unlit torch waiting right infront of my building.  I grabbed my camera and caught the whole thing on film. If I wasn’t in my p.j’s I would have gone down to meet them too.

Enjoy the vid, it’s the first time I’ve tried to edit one

Here’s some photos from my gig in Beirut, Lebanon. I had an amazing time overall.. learned a LOT & experienced new things..so many new things.

Highlights of the trip:

- dropping my beats in a new country (obviously) what a rush!

- meeting some killer dj’s.. dj Pablo from Lebanon, and dj Avid from Jordan they both tore it up!

- checking out the many clubs and non-stop nightlife

- $1 beers!!! ^_^ (the whole exchange rate is pretty awesome I did mad shopping!)

- afterpartying in a man-made cave in the mountains

- all the beautiful sites:the Mediteranean Sea, mountains, hillsides..its all just breathtaking.

- meeting lots of new people to party with.. Laura & Ingrid <3 you girls! everywhere, even our waiter at Roadsters Cafe lol

Not so great:

- losing my luggage. for 2 days!! ..but thankfully I got it back intact

- my serato wouldn’t hook up at the club, so I had to leave, burn my set to cd’s at a friends house and rush back to spin my set on CDjs (always gonna be bringing a backup set on cdjs now)

- a lot of the food made me feel sick (even though it was delicious, so not fair)

- when they say don’t drink the water, DONT DO IT! I thought my Dunk ‘N’ donuts coffee was safe. I was wrong.

- the internet was so slow it should be in a new category. Updates during the trip were not an option, not even twitter.. my phone abandoned me.

- I got a migraine on the 15 hour flight home, and the tylenol I took made me nauseous, not to mention the 2 hours of turbulence, I was a wreck! I couldn’t even look at my in flight meal lol

I’m a lil bit disgusted buy the consumer greed that runs rampant through the crowds on boxing day, but I can’t say much about it this year as I myself had to dive into the throng headfirst. Usually I sleep through most of the day following Christmas, so maybe I’m just not desensitized to it? I had a good excuse though; leaving the country for two weeks starting tomorrow left me no choice but to brave the mall-chaos and plead with sales girls to let me do a couple exchanges while I picked up last minute essentials like batteries, foundation …and a couple skirts and tops that were such a good deal I’d be crazy not to pass them up. *blush*

They call it Boxingday Madness for a reason, the crush of my fellow bargain hunters was so thick I could barely move at times! My girlfriend and I expertly weaved our way in and out of the congestion like the seasoned shoppers we both are, but even still this was not a place to be if you were in a hurry (which I was) and we had to take frequent breaks outside to cool off and regain our composure. The day was hot and intense, I think we both walked off our Christmas dinner and then some, but we survived with noone getting too agressive and the general atmosphere was rushed but pleasant. Overall a surprisingly enjoyable experience, but the icing on the cake was my last stop. A big name electronics store that was so suffocating with shoppers you couldnt move unless you took ‘side roads’ meaning random deserted isles and circled around til you closed in on what you wanted. I almost lost my mind trying to find a Middle East compatible power adapter for my hair iron.. but finally a nice sales guy not only helped me but rang me up at one of those little stations, and in doing so let me cut in front of a good 20 people in line. (I didn’t realize there was a line when I asked him for help it was too crowded) Big thanks to my gf and the angel sales guy if you’re reading this you saved my day and my sanity!!! xx

It’s 10pm, I leave for Beirut, Lebanon at 2pm tomorrow and as usual I’m rushing around doing last minute things. I’m about 75% packed but I still have a whole list of things to do before I take off. My boy and I are playing at Citrus nightclub in downtown Beirut this New Years Eve, its going to be magical!!. My first overseas gig! =)

I will of course take many photos to share with all of you, but I may be a little out of touch for the next two weeks, I have no idea what kind of internet access I’ll have out there.

Here’s the flyer…

I’ve always been fascinated by body modification. Below are my own ‘mods’.. I have the obligatory navel piercing every teenage girl had to have.. some pretty tiger lillies (unfinished) on my side abs and lower back microdermals that I seriously LOVE (courtesy of Russ Foxx in Vancity). I planned them out carefully since they’re all pretty much there for-ev-er, unless I have them lasered/surgically removed =P Below my pics are some interesting ideas that may not have been thought out so well.. >_<

side tiger lillies still waiting to be shaded in

………………………….

I’m not sure how this girl is faring but I freak out if I get a tiny eyelash in my eye, let alone a big chunk of metal. It L00Ks neat tho.

Hmm.. well at least he’ll never lose his glasses ^_^

I get squeemish at the idea of anyone cutting into layers of my eyeball so I this one is hard for me to look at. Thankfully eye implant jewelry never caught on. (so far) I just like it cuz it’s shiny

This guy decided he wanted to give the sexy cowgirl on his leg some silicone upgrades, I have to admit its a great conversation piece… but unfortunately the implants rejected and had to be removed.

This is funny.. but I actually love a well done backpiece.. I think it’s incredibly hot.
