Look what my lovely girlfriend got me! Also included was a sweet Rebel Alliance window decal and a painting she made me. What a great Christmas :)
Facing South on the Northbound.
So monday morning while driving on the freeway, my car hit a patch of water which sent me spinning uncontrollably towards the carpool lane. Next thing I know the right side of my car hits the median, scrapes along for 15-some feet, and I end up facing back towards oncoming traffic. My heartbeat raced and my muscles tightened as each car approached, praying that they don’t hit me straight on. Thankfully, police came shortly and escorted me to the right shoulder where I waited for a tow truck to get me.
Thinking back, I can’t help but laugh at how lucky I was. I somehow managed to not hit any cars and came out of it completely unscratched. How crazy is that? And sure my back is fucking killing me right now but at least I didn’t hit my head against the window or something! And there I was, seeing a Kodak moment in all this chaos and fear. (That’s what three years of Art School teaches you)
So here I am now, sitting in bed at 2:40 am with my laptop on tumblr, writing a post so I can thank all my family and friends who gave me so much love and support upon hearing the bad news. And especially to my beautiful girlfriend Meghan for helping me get through the aftermath with a smile on my face. I’m so happy that you weren’t with me because i don’t know what I’d do if you ever got hurt. And I promise you that I’ll never make another phone call like that again okay?
Anyways so everyone please promise me that you’ll drive extremely carefully during the rain. Be safe this holiday season.

Learning to see in color after three years of shooting purely black and white.
This should be fun.
So all summer long I’ve been learning and teaching myself how to play Football (or Soccer to us Americans). I look like a professional player - with the jerseys, the cleats, the ball, etc - but I sure as hell don’t play like one. However, slowly but surely my first touch is getting better, my passes more accurate, and I can finally juggle a ball more than two times!
And why am I doing this? Besides an undying love for Liverpool FC, I really just want to be able to teach my future kid how to properly play “the beautiful game.” (and subsequently turn him into the next Lionel Messi…hey it’s my fantasy.)
