Freewrite [about me]....
I like to do this once in a while, so I can see who I was at a particular time . See if I changed, stayed the same, if I was different. See if I progressed as a person, matured so to speak.
My name is Chukwudike Nwankwo, not many people know that, because they all call me “Chuk”. I’m stupid happy at the moment for so many reasons. I’m happy, I’m blessed. I am really...

Shooting Katra...
last night was a blast, filled up an sd card just like said I would. Everyone smiling and shit, made my job so much easier; Thank you cooperative people. Althought there was one downside to lastnight; shooting again made me realize how badly I really need to upgrade my camera. she does a great job, but as time goes along, she gets pushed lower and lower in standard. I can afford to have a bad...

My camera got severely fucked up last summer, saddest day of my life. I haven’t really been shooting since. Few shoots here and there, plus is was cold out. I’m shooting again, and Katra is mine tomorrow night. Should be fun, I haven’t shoot love to love in so long. I loved it so much. The summer again, my albums are going to look stupid. Going to parties almost every night, and...

Just when I think I learn something new about girls from girls, girls tend to show me either something newer than the previous new, or just completely lose me in the contradiction of thought I’ve had from what I previously knew. Simply, they switch shit up quite a bit. This is good, I’m learning…
Interesting, interesting indeed.
Thumbs up.
Language...
I like instrumentals. Something about them, kinda pure to me. I like music before it gets to the hands of the singer, rapper, musician or whatever. I like samples, like you wouldn’t believe. I love old music from 50s to early 90s. I catch a tune on the radio occasionally, but I don’t know anything about current music outside that window of time. I like big headphones, they are like a...

I’m sick, I think I caught a cold of something. Its kinda bad because I’ve been in and out of bed. I got a few medicine bags and the ladies spring pants done, so I’m at least happy. I’m selling that along with some t-shirts on May 15th at the loft showcase.
Being sick is actually like missing a day of work, and I’ve missed 3 days. My workload has piled up on me. I...
Block recovery...
I’ve been having some serious trouble coming up with designs, and beats for the last 3 weeks. Today, I made 3 beats, and 2 web templates. The beats I like most of all. Alas, the “Strange People Need Love Too” mixtape has a satisfying 15 tracklist. Next month I believe May 15th, I should be DJ’ing for an artist showcase, so I’m psyched that I have new material out for...
I went to the movie theater and wasted 150 minutes...
Sometimes I talk, and no one listens. Go see clash of the Titans they said, its a really awesome movie they said. I can’t believe I let someone sucker me into telling me what “my” taste was. Clash of the titans was not a good movie, it wasn’t even mediocre. I’m not going to be the one to ruin the fun if everyone is all psyched about seeing a shitty movie. Its one of...

I think I have allergies. It might be because my eyelid look like grapes or that my nose just can’t stop with the sneezing. Ugh, this is amazing. It literally feels like death. I had a meeting today, I showed up with my eyes puffy. This has never happened before. I’m going to quit my bitching because I’ve got work to get done tonight.
Everything besides the allergies is great,...
10 Things {for the freelancer}...
Being professional doesn’t necessarily come from a physical appearance. Have a strong portfolio, and heavy references. Also being well mannered helps.
Be firm. Every employer is going to see what they can try to get away with for free.
Contact. No one wants to seem like they are doing a job for free. Make sure that your client is able to be reached at your pressing concern.
Constantly...
Live forever...
I’ve been a Nujabes fan for a long time, listened to as much of his music as I possibly could. I could say it ruled a certain period in my life. I just found out he died not too long ago. And so did a lot of other people recently as well, collectively… weird lol. Anywho, some people want to ruin it a little. Its like saying you’re a bigger fan while the person was still alive....
Ceremony
I stumbled in the house from last nights shenanigans at a little past 8 this morning. My head hurt and I feel like crawling into bed. I’m almost surprised at myself for what I know happened last night, all in the spectrum of good and bad. At least it was all shirtless.I remember bits and pieces so far. I remember Britt told me “You dance like a ho”, and I said “yes, only...
Shirts off and shit...
I can’t wait. Tomorrow I’m going to be a mess. I went out once this week. I can’t really say I had the best time. Dunno why, but It wasn’t the same. Opposed to one particular night I keep being reminded of. Apparently I was so drunk, when “Passin’ Me By” by Pharcyde, is was the loudest mother fucka in the club singing along. So if that didn’t happen...
