// Savour Everything...
Slow down kid, where do you think you’re going with that speed? Oh, them? You’ll always see someone else zooming past you, they aren’t important, they probably aren’t going in the same direction. Listen kid, its about the journey. You don’t have to go anywhere too fast. Move at your own pace, not others. You’ll get there eventually. Also remember to savour it,...

its like standing in a shallow swimming pool, with scuba gear on. Its like being a runner up, and being called a champion while the trophy is handed to the victor. Its like spitting in the wind. Its like being caught in the bathroom, without a roll of toilet paper. Its like a karate chop, with your foot. Its like the idiots guide, for reading. It’s like positive reinforcement for the dead....
//The Bigger Picture...
As a human being, you have to understand that you are not the center of the world. Things that you make, aren’t that important. No matter how important they are, they really aren’t. You need to see the bigger picture. Not everything is about you, or what you make, or what you put on your feet, or what you silk screen. Its a much bigger world than that, and at the end of the day its...

recap. Friday night, off to Adultcity, got hit in the face. Found out the next day, I bled. All for the sake of video. Saturday, party. Thanks for coming! Notice some strange-ness, I’ll keep that to myself. I will say this though, time together/apart always modifies relationships. Trouble is, I can’t tell if its good or bad. Moving on. Sunday, clean up was a bitch. Made 4 beats,...

//Anniversary
The marauder brand has reached a year. Its quite a big deal to me because in the past, I haven’t stuck to any projects. I count my blessings and acknowledge my journey; the brand has pumped out quite a few designs (including web & graphic), some clothes, music, and a shit load of photographs. This all started as a blog with intent to fill it with photographs from New Yorks’ night...

Marauded “Fashions Night Out” at a T-World event with free custom t-shirts, they silk screened them right in front of you. There were a shit load of designs; you pick one, grab a free tee, and hand it to the silk screener. Free drink and stuff, people had me signing bags and t-shirts (overwhelming, yet humbling). Bunch of photos to post, good night out.

10 Things...
Be true…
Sometimes the only reward from great effort is being able to say you did it. Sometimes its also the best…
Never ever ever ever say ever.
When everyone is different and special, no one really is.
If whispering out into the universe doesn’t work, try screaming before you give up.
Bursting into random jubilation is good for the soul.
Life is short, take a photo.

//Party & Mischief...
I moved out my old place before I had my painting party. I feel sad and shit, but…. I just posponed the date. Now its some kinda house warming/birthday party. My roomate and I are having a BBQ, and a friend of mine said he’ll bring his set for music. We are going to have booze, bud, and maybe Brownies. It is always a great idea to bring your own of course (I honestly encourage it). I...
