Got A Complex About Being Too Complex.


Mighty Joe - Dream - Mighty Fine Mixtape

My wish list for Santa Clause to realize in present-form:
01. Red Visvim Backpack

02. AdidasxFTC Superstar Lows

03. Fuchsia Basic Long Sleeve (to go w/ my fuchsia G-Shock!), peace to Vanaly!

04. Nike Dunk Low Pro Nightshades (I'll never get these.. but if I could have my wish, why not!)

I need the laptop most of all, my Vaio is finally showing signs of giving in!

BIRTHDAY PARTY UPDATE!

Apparently, this was the last Style/Plus Sign Vibes event @ Agave Ultra Lounge; although the attendance was more timid, all the better to have all that space with all my good folks!!

Happy Birthday, Lisa. (& Me!)


Michael Jackson ft. Bart Simpson - Happy Birthday, Lisa - The Simpsons: Stark Raving Dad

Since my 20th birthday, December 4th hasn't been as crackin as it once was: When I became 21, I had to study for a Calculus final and an Intermediate Macroeconomics final, both to be taken on the same day... WEAK! And on my 22nd? I had to go on campus to a REVIEW SESSION, that time for an Intermediate Accounting final and a Fraud Examination one..

Basically, I've had to study when I should have been going hella dumb, ghost riding my Maxima on Westcliff or some other outrageously dangerous Santa Cruz road with zero-pavement, binging on High Lifes, banging my head on sushi tables before bellowing "Kampei!" to the alcoholic I Love Sushi restaurant owner while being with good folks.. but nooooooooo! Anyway, I always felt that college robbed me of a decent birthday with my classmates, but nonetheless, it's time to celebrate (tomorrow that is)!

Formulas For The Perfect Mixture.


Lisa Shaw - Grown Apart - Cherry

I wish Multivariable Calculus formulas were just as easy to understand as these ones.. And these formulas aren't the type that describe something boring like why hyperbolic paraboloids have saddle-seat shape, no siree--these formulas describe facts of LIFE!!

I Want Those Flashing Lights.


Colin Munroe ft. Wale & Dallas Austin - Will I Stay Remix - Is The Unsung Hero

This post is basically a fanboy-esque dedication to Colin Munroe's "Is The Unsung Hero" mixtape.



Thoughts before the first listening: This is the same guy that sung over the entire Flashing Lights/Kanye instrumental, and had that blurry video with people treating him like garbage and the cool light effects right?
1st Impression: "_______" <---- SPEECHLESS!
2nd thoughts: still "_______"
3rd Impression: "I LOVE THIS MIXTAPE.

The way Munroe flipped Fever and Will I Stay are OUTOFTHISWORLDLY. Yes I'm making up words (similar to a Will-Ferrel-impersonating-Liption-and-procuring-new-word-goodness moment!) but strictly because this listening experience left me trying to find new blends of vocal vocabulary I never knew I had or was ever privy to. Bottom line was that I had fun listening to this musical mixture and give it my highest reccomendation!

Guilty & Magnificent.


Kissey Asplund - Caos - Plethora

Christmas Time Is Here, word to Vince Guiraldi! After Thanksgiving dinner @ my cousins' spot, I drove by the Vacaville Premium Outlets just to see if people were silly enough to be in line as early as the 10pm time it was... and I was aghast! People were lined up around the Coach outlet, a 20-deep line was already in place @ Banana.. I decided to skip out on all the stores that I'd probably float around and fine nothing I'd particularly fall in love with, so I decided to go ahead with the classic s^%@ and went to the Polo Ralph Lauren outlet.

Just my luck! They were letting people 2 HOURS EARLY as part of their 'Early Bird Special' sale, and I was able to cop $350+ worth of Polo outerwear for $150 (due to Black Friday-only mark downs and a nifty 20% off total purchases over $150.. not bad at all!

Included in my coppage was this very fly, black and toasty-warm pea coat, originally $225 but copped for that low-low.

this is basically the same RL pea coat; unlike those hella weak Old Navy peas that just fall apart and aren't warm.. this one'll stay in my closet for good!

And I Want You.


Flying Lotus ft. Dolly - Roberta Flack - Los Angeles

This is dedicated to someone I used to really dig.

First time I met you my heart skipped twice,
Struggled to find you despite these dim kitchen lights,
First time I saw you, distantly behind a curtain,
Finding you disappear in curtain flutters had me hurting,
for that first meet, to learn your name, learn your whispers,
Eyes closed on those stairs I swear i could see your light flicker,
not the light in plain sight that reassures you there's life,
but the hidden light, invisible--your love light shone bright..
took you to the cafe, at the movies held your hand,
like a bite of 100 grand when i kissed you my mind went DAMNN
you were everything, still don't know what happened,
just want you to know you were the freshest, ain't no blastin'
all the late calls, smiles with no asking?
tuned me to the fact that love's better than i imagined,
better than letting go of a peeve long despised;
all i want is you, back then you were a beautiful surprise.

L + Lg.

"I never knew a love like this,
gotta be somethin' for me to write this,
queen i ain't seen you in a minute,
wrote this letter & finally decided to send it..."
