Clock With No Hands x The Roots ƒ Mercedes Martinez
Thanks @questlove
I’ve been pushing through the final stages of this web design job all morning. All to the the rhythm of The Roots, and this jammer brought me out of the daze. A true beauty.
Here is a quick quest for you to mentally embark on.
Do you ever look at someone, and still wonder how they look?
A little world at the mercy of your finger. Godfinger.
I browse the app store every once in awhile looking for something new to screw around with. Last week I found Street Fighter IV. This week I got really lucky, I discovered “Godfinger”. It’s basically a roleplaying game, and you are god. You use your finger to navigate your planet as it grows at your control. As you level up you get access to more buildings, followers, and power-ups. Followers are the people that populate your planet, and you can give them different roles such as harvesting gold, worshipping your shrine, or constructing buildings. You control the energy to the buildings and followers with sun and rain, and you gain energy by being worshipped. That’s the basics, and there isn’t much more to it. I like the fact that I can play for 5 minutes, and be done for an hour or two, and get a notification if resources are low, or harvests are rotting. It keeps going while your not around, and sends push notifications to keep me in the loop. It’s not a demanding game, but it is quite fun once you get going. I was hard pressed to find a roleplaying style game before this, but this has filled the desire quite adequately. You can find it in the App Store for FREE.

Nuevo Vallarta, MX
I’m currently sitting in the aisle seat of flight 3213 taking me from Nuevo Vallarta where I just spent the last week basking in sun, to Calgary - The halfway point on this return home. Back to the confines of the “nine-to-five“. The ‘artificially lit mega-center’ of modern suburban society. Seven days now seems like more of a tease than a vacation. Especially as the beverage trolley nudges my elbow for the umpteenth time, and the ‘bro’ ahead of me leans his seat back to it’s fully-reclined position leaving me in the least ergonomically ideal arrangement. Nonetheless, all I can do is reminisce on the past week, and the pleasures that it held. Pics after the break.

Feel Good x Chip Tha Ripper.

I love this track, I hope you do as well. Check out the hook- it’s genius.
February was a slow, uninspired month. Outdoors are grim, morale is low, sales are down, and I am busy working at a job effected that. I didn’t shoot enough, I didn’t think enough, and in the end I was unproductive. On a happy note, I turned 19 on Feb. 26th, which means I am legally allowed to buy and drink alcohol, but I don’t so I guess it’s just another year.
March will be different, I am off to Mexico this thursday, and presuming my camera doesn’t sell this week, I will get some great photos I’m sure!
The other night was my friend Fraser’s birthday. The next night a few good friends got together, played some pool, and had a great time. Here is a quick video I made to document some of the night. Enjoy!
What Does it Take?
I subscribe to Esquire, I pick up GQ monthly, and read fashion blogs, tech blogs, and every type of blog that could possibly inspire me to want “things”. Every little boy dreams of owning a big house and a fast car, but do we actually know what it takes? The simple answer is - “Only millionaires have those things”. That is probably true, or at least $300,000+ gross incomes, but it’s not a realistic goal to set.
When I say the word ‘millionaire’, what flashes through your mind, or better yet - Who? I bet it’s hollywood, NYC, business tycoons, celebrities. Was I right? Probably. Real life isn’t like that. If 100 of you are my age, I bet in 10 years at the most 1 of you will have an established name nationwide. Chances are none of you will*, just because statistically it is very improbable. What is more probable is that you will have an established name in your community, or industry. This is something that can be just as fulfilling, and could have an equal pay off.
So here I sit. Still curious as to how much it takes to get to the top. I still wonder where the top is. From where I am now, I can’t fathom the top. So with that in mind- I might as well just keep going until I’m there, and when I get there - I’ll keep going.
Where do you want to be? What do you want to do?
Show me your dreams.
*I encourage you to be successful, by “none of you”, I was speaking statistically. Reach for the stars.

You will be remembered Mr Mcqueen. Fashion never dies.
I’m 18. I’m still young, expense free, and generally don’t have many responsibilities. For the last 3 years, I have been practically self sufficient. I have payed for all my fuel, clothes, cameras, gadgets, computers, cell phone, and the else. I have a roof over my head expense free, and a full fridge at all times. That said, over these 3 years I have blown essentially every dollar I have ever earned. I have bought 2 Macbook Pros, 2 Nikons, a Canon, and countless other gadgets. I have been shopping 4 times a week in some cases, and used to drive 500 km a week (locally, in school majority). Long story short, I was good for the economy.
2010 is about simplifying. Consolidating. Buying right, and being smart with my finances, and decisions. To start this I’m making a comparison of some small changes that will result in big savings. Feel free to compare my list to your daily life, and see how much the smallest things cost annually.
