I love summer time. Woke up at around noon today as we had a PD day and got a breakfast sandwich over at Bagel Run, then ate it at Starbucks with one of their “London Fog” drinks. After that I hit up some stores and whatnot, then I went roller blading on some next level path my mom showed me. Wish I had brought my camera to take pics. After that my mom and I got some food at this little fry stand called Fritomania. Overall it was a great day, and I’m just relaxing now/ doing some pushups.

You need to understand there’s nothing fake about this

Beautiful day here in O-town. Took a trip downtown, got a nice sang-weech (sandwich in Italian-american) from Botegga Nicastro. After that I met with my mom and dad and had a Gelato from Piccolo Grande and enjoyed it in this little European inspired courtyard.

Went to Schad Blu with my dad and there was a crazy 3 for 1 sale so I picked up these Naked And Famous Slim Guy’s in Black Selvedge for less than half of retail (52 dollars to be precise)

After that I headed home. Just finished a nice little Two Ball dribbling workout and gonna try and get in a decent strength workout in and as well as some cardio.

It has been some time since either writers have posted anything, however I definetly think it is a much needed return and in the next few months you will be seeing much more posting from me at least.

I will continue to post the hottest news in street fashion and music, but there will be many more personalized pieces this time around.

Oh ya…

I started using Google Chrome (I know, I know, I’m a little late aren’t I?) and I must say it is fantastic. I’m loving the Artist Themes. Right now I’m using the Jeff Koons theme.

Anyways, it felt good to come back.

I don’t know what you’re going to think about this shit…

I dont even know what I think about this…

Lately I’ve been realizing more and more how much of a mistake it was to treat you the way i did

You made me smile. You made me laugh. You made me happy.

Why did i have to ruin that?

Why I am I always so self destructive?

You told me how you felt, and to be honest, I didn’t even take it into account.

I was so selfish I couldn’t even try to think about how you felt.

And now, you think I’m a joke. Just like everybody else does.

Baby, I miss you. I wish I could of kissed you farewell, and been you everything you want wanted me to be.

I tried to think of what the chances were of you telling me you were still crazy about me like you used to be, and that you missed me me too, but i just ended up feeling bad about myself.

I thought writing this would make me feel a little better about myself, but now I just feel like a creep.

Why am I pretending that you’ll ever even see this…

Would you even CARE?

“Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was I?
Now I’m breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines”

“Designed in the same scheme as the fragment design Chuck Taylor’s of years past, we’re graced with yet another classic creation from Hiroshi Fujiwara and his creative collective fragment design. The shoes follow a simple navy blue and white color scheme with a tonal navy toe cap and embroidered fragment design logo. For those feeling this new colorway, the kicks look to drop on December 26th through DQM.”

MVP’s New Music – 09/12/09

Remember when being lower-middle class was cool? A great ode to beautifully broken homes.

“Mum I ain’t being rude just turn up the heating
She said ‘move out if you ain’t warm enough’
Coincidently, suddenly i’m warming up!”

Matt & Kim. Just another great indie band to come out of NYC. Even though we’re not always sure what they’re talking about, it all seems to make sense the second time around. And with their bright melodies, catchy hooks and marching beats, they’re a soundtrack for disenfranchised youth everywhere.
