I was pulling pictures to update my address book and i started a collage on my desktop. this is a capture of it. fun, huh? top L is a lot of capoeira ppl and top R is a lot of PA school friends. In the middle are a lot of random Jersey friends and then my family. I forgot I had a picture of my brother blowing fire. The bottom consists of buffalo/ohio friends.
Ive made out with 7 of them.
Ive worked with 5 of them.
Ive done drugs with 11 of them.
Ive gotten drunk with 57 of them.
Ive gotten drunk in another country with 4 of them.
1 of them has felt my liver.
Only 2 have seen me cry (not from laughter).
I slapped 1 in the face.
Ive thrown a preying mantis at 1 of them.
only 1 of them made me want to end my life.
about 40 of them gave me reasons to live life.
i have started a mosh pit with on a moving boat with 1 of them.
1 threw me out the house when i was 17 years old. Another gave me his shirt off his back and the money in his pockets when i got tossed.
All of them in some shape or form have changed my life.

Omi teaches rhythms on a berimbau - an instrument we make from a tree sapling, gutted tire wire, a gourd, a rock and a stick and sometimes you can get a lil shaker by putting seeds/beans in a lil shaker thing. pretty sweet, no? Professor (say Pro-fess-or) Omi teaches capoeira at my studio - Capoeira Angola Quintal. He was…
“ Idalina : A slow, but powerful game. Another of Mestre Bimba’s toques, the accompanying game is played with knives/razors. ”
Capoeira toques - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
… i had no idea i was singing the invocation of such a game when i sang “sai sai catalina..” now im a lil disappointed no one ever brought out knives/razors when i sang that. crap.
Fuckin Lost
so, dood, i have been able to avoid tv fairly successfully but occasionally - and it seems like mostly when its a family holiday - i get sucked in again. this is kind of odd because in general each separate entity of my family is intelligent and well read but for whatever reason when we all have to spend time with each other - ON goes the tv. ANYWAY, this xmas break my little brother got me watching Lost. being a stubborn half german i had to netflix it from the start. i got a few discs down that weekend i was sick but im still not done with season 1 and theres been lots of Lost talk and its a struggle because i want to read what you people are talking about because of my interest in the show but at the same time i dont want any spoilers. and since i dont really watch tv i dont get spoiled via adverts. phew. so yeah, tumblrs, way to drive me nuts. oh but i heard jack is still alive and thats great because hes friggin HOT but i was wondering the other day why if hes so smart didnt he just set up a distillation set and get to work boiling off the saline in all that ocean water so people could drink it? hrm?! and im not sure yet if i like that cowboy character. i hope someone cuts his hair. jeez. i also kind of hope they run out of boar and have to eat the fat guy. heheheh.
tomorrow i fly to buffalo. im going to try to get some stuff for the flight manual group on flickr, so keep yer eyes open. oh and if my plane crashes and i never tumble again its because ive taken that big tumble from the sky. and if my plane crashes and i tumble safely to an island i am totally starting an organic chem set the first thing i do. but seriously if i tumble too hard - someone make sure i get a goddamn irish wake. cheers.
