Fuck november. I fucking hate this month. Everything seems to go wrong this time of year for no apparent reason, i decided to go clean of grass for a while, becuase today my friend got really nauseous of it. He puked like 5 times, litterally puking out his whole stomach content..

School is fine, no real problems there, maybe for some exceptions that my iPod's been jacked. And i have been in a very bad mood because of that. But classes are fine, Mathematics course is way too easy and my teacher of layout praises me for anything i draw.

here's a drawing i finished just now. please enjoy.

Time lost.

Finally, after almost 2 months, A blog post! Hey, it's a good thing. Means i'm not dead yet. But anyway, school has been in session for almost a month now, and so far, it's not that splendid. 2 Notes in my agenda in only one day, including one for detention on Friday. Which has a backstory of me plagiarizing 2 InDesign Documents (1 i do not take credit for, since there is no real proof and a second one i got busted on, Since a friend had the document, and i was being to lazy). Furthermore, i have money, i've got smokes, i can not complain. Although i am feeling Very sick. Earache, burning throat, runny nose and headaches. Note some diarrhea and such.

I just posted a video on youtube on a craze that is quite annoying in dutch countries; Sad stories. Which revolves around a plot in which a girl (it's almost always a girl) leads a tragic life of things like; Parents not understanding, annoying little sisters boyfriends and loverboys (other term ; pimps in high school). The girl is always depicted as a ugly entity (fat, warts, other disgusting shit) that comes in contact with a hot guy and ends drastically. In most cases, the story ends in a Suicide. the build up and the spelling are so atrocious that it's actually more funny then saddening.

Here's my video response;

I promise i will update more; good day!

note; it's just a practice/test thing i wanted t oshare with you.

I have returned!

2009-07-21T08:16:00.000-07:00

And my god was Dour awesome or what? Really. Best 6 day of my summer. Definitely going next year!

Only bad news i have is that my hard drive full of music and movies has completely disappeared. Gone. Deleted. I was upset, but that still didn't bring me down. I was glad i went to Dour. And realizing that if you sleep in a very small tent for 6 days, once you come home everything looks bigger.

Here's a picture of bob.
We found him passed out in our tent. He was a pretty nice guy. Same for everyone except some assholes from Mechelen. that kept bothering me and my friends for Ecstacy.

But that's like the only bad thing that happened. For the rest everything went great.

this is it!

2009-07-15T01:16:00.000-07:00

In less then an hour from now i'll be departing for dour via bus and train! I'm just writing this post to say sayonara for 6 days. Because i'm going to be away from the PC for 6 days. I'll leave you with another picture i found, just to capture the sudden blow.

This is an old picture of my dog blitzie. If you look close, you'll see my batshit crazy dog goldie in the background. Really i love this picture. (R.I.P. homedogs)

well, san sayonara, au revoir, auf wehdersien or whatever, i also leave you with this;

See you in 6 days!

and there's no driver at the wheel

2009-07-14T03:20:00.000-07:00

In less then 24 hours from now i'm going to be partying it down on Dour for 6 days. I'm just writing this post to kill time, because i got some stuff to do. And at the same time i don't.

I wasted my morning sleeping till about 9-ish. Then i got out of bed and decided to clean my closet (with which i am not done yet). I just found a old polaroid from 3 years back. When i still had a bed;

Sure, the kitty might look cute. But under that cuteness hides a monster that was tormenting me for about 2 years. She's been calm right now, But she still has that bitch attitude sometimes. When she isn't drugged on Zylkene.

Just went to fill in some work papers. Which was pretty lame. Got some lucky strikes and Tigra, Rizlas and filter tips. and a nice green lighter. Finally something different from all the blue lighters they were giving me.

I've been a very electric avenue mood. My god that song is so goddamn catchy. Here's some electric avenue for you to enjoy, together with me.

Fucking Awesome. Hands down.

The car is on fire.

2009-07-13T14:54:00.000-07:00

not a much meaning post. Me and my sister went to stock up on some canned food and energy drinks for dour. Drawing some stuff on MS paint.

Here's some pixel art i did. After my friend psibat persuaded me into trying it. It looks okay. But i'm not going to boast all of my MS paint doodles and projects on this blog.

Really, i'm just killing time right now. Drawing on MS paint, cleaning my room and listening to merzbow. also some far France (see; last post). With less than 24 hours to go, all i can do is wait, and get ready.

Summers are fucking awesome.

2009-07-12T14:11:00.000-07:00

Hey guys, long time.

Man, my summer couldn't get any better. I have a source of income. I can get wasted and High. I can do almost whatever i want. Except for Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Cause' then i have to work.

But what about my drawings? Sadly enough i haven't spent to much attention on drawing as i used to. Since i'm occupied with other crap like work. And the fact I'm leaving over 3 days, to dour. for which i will be gone for 6 days. Kinda crap. But no worries. My friend gave me an idea. to make a shirt design, just a design by me. Anything. So i decided to stick to the Obey giant. But that seemed unoriginal. So i made this drawing. Which i will cut out in stencil and then put on a shirt with an Acrylic textile Medium. So that kept me busy for like 30 minutes. I came up with this;

cant wait to see that on a shirt. I will take pictures once it happened. Thanks. i might print multiple shirts wich i might put up for sale. But that's for later. Now, enjoy a sneak preview of what's to come. Also, for your entertainments sake, Enjoy;

An another note (i gave up the numbering)

2009-06-11T14:06:00.000-07:00

Now, it's night.

2009-06-11T13:41:00.000-07:00

The street lights went mad. Actually, the whole universe went mad for 5 minutes. And it was Worth seeing. Since you missed it. I took some pictures of it. Just for you.

I went outside this evening.

2009-06-11T12:44:00.000-07:00

And i took a camera with me

It was fun, i had enough time to think. To get my mind in order. Since it's exams, i'm kind of a mess. My room isn't clean. I fear for bad grades.

But eventually. Everything is going to be fine. You know why? because without the outside world i would feel dead.

on another note; part??? of???

2009-06-09T13:00:00.000-07:00

The design is by me, i want to thank my friend Nicholas for cutting out the design and printing it on my sweater. Thanks a bunch man.

also, i have 2 of these left, Alex, you can expect one.

PS: it was my birthday this weekend, Hooray, now i'm 16 and i can smoke legally and drink legally and fuck legally.

2009-06-09T12:47:00.000-07:00

While most people complain. keep in mind that Egon Schiele only lived 28 years. And in that lifespan he went through so many remarkable events. So when you're complaining about getting old and sad, keep that in mind.

'I believe in the immortality of all creatures. '
-Egon Schiele

For my dead Friend Egon, here's a hommage to his art. I might not be him. But it's the best i could do.

Also, let's not forget to mourn the death of isabella.

oh those rainy days

2009-04-19T02:11:00.000-07:00

The easter holidays are over. And i need to go to school tomorrow. Also, i got a holiday job. Even in a time of crisis. So hooray for me.

mondays are very progressive.

2009-04-06T13:58:00.000-07:00

I was bored so i made a bunch of stuff, like this little guy

meet jorge, he was in my backpack;

Then i decided to make a painting, which pretty much consumed my whole afternoon;

here it was around 2 PM, when i was like half way there:

and this was around 6 PM, complete recut from A2;

So, how was your day?

generic.

2009-04-05T14:11:00.000-07:00

Have you ever met a girl, who had similar interests, similar ethics. So beautiful, so...Daring and so weird, you'd just tend to walk up to her and start making out?

well, no. I haven't. Because there are no beautiful girls that share the same ethics or interests. that are daring and weird. Because this is a miserable world full of douchebags and whores.

but i can't complain, i still have my friends. and my drawings. And my family.

anyway, here's something a sketched up yesterday. Kinda fits this theme, no real comments, just a generic drawing

How are you?

There's something about easter.

2009-03-31T21:25:00.000-07:00

well, i got a ticket on the bus on monday, of 75 Euros. Fucking public transport system, it wasn't like i was doing anything bad. But, then, on tuesday, while i was learning french, i got some handy advice of my study counselor (which is a great man to talk to). And he told me i should try to do 'tension meditation'. the concept behind it was being really tense, but build up on your serenity with that tension. So that's why the busride seemed so tolerant last night. Or maybe it could've been my mp3.

Anyway, here's a work-in-progress.

Exams... Bleh!

2009-03-28T01:39:00.000-07:00

god, i really hate exams. I'm typing this whilst i'm now between the books learning for maths, the class i payed the least attention to. But the studying is going along smooth, but slowly, it's a painstaking process. But i smoked a doobie an hour ago, it seems to help me concentrate on maths. But right now, i'm a bit distracted through Blogger. But that doesn't matter, it's geometry with comparisons, one of the things i also payed a lot less attention to.

But we can't all be lucky, can we? anyways, here's some doodles i drew on Thursday during free period, enjoy .

Late night blog

2009-03-25T15:08:00.000-07:00

Well, not much was happening today, just drawing during free periods. And i'm starting to watch freaks and geeks again. I love that show.

I'm going to bed now, sleep tight internet.

but yeah enjoy, and Alex, if you're reading this; please, we should try to talk again.

On another note... Part 2 of....

2009-03-24T11:24:00.001-07:00

My sister makes some bitchin' tea.

Feet to the fire.

2009-03-24T10:37:00.001-07:00

I hate the kids in my class, really. If it wasn't for the god damn law, I'd blow their brains out with no hesitation. They can never shut up. They're like fucking chainsaws. they just keep going. No common sense in their little brains. They are like retards or chemo-kids. They really don't know what the fuck is going on.

teachers are also putting me under a lot of pressure for are partial exam of maths next week. like 'if you don't look at it, you will fail' or 'quit fucking around, you need to study' and even the best; TAKE THAT CIGARETTE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH AND GET INTO YOUR BOOKS'. Dunno, some assclown shouted that to me. But i was walking, and wasn't paying much attention either, I was to busy smoking.

i might skip school tomorrow afternoon, well, at least if our In Design teacher is still sick. Because i'm not intending of sitting on my ass for 3 hours doing some boring ass task some dude gave us.

also; here's a few drawings (click image to see full size)

It was raining today.

2009-03-23T14:10:00.000-07:00

it was very depressing. You can really notice the mood swings in weather.

but thanks to mind-killing internet, i sort of forgot my misery, and decided to draw a bit.
here's my attempt at time-killing, I should really buy a decent sketchpad.

Brave new blog Article.

2009-03-22T12:53:00.000-07:00

so, Alex ( they are flying) and me were talking on MSN for a while. And we were in this interesting conversation about infinity. Unfortunately he told me he had to go'n brainwash, so left me with the suggestion of a book called island by Aldous huxley, he told i might be interested, so i quickley searched it.

i had heard of Huxley's book, brave new world. and even read a fragment of it. seeing the wikipedia page, it showed some references to brave new world, but in a totally different context. Because island was the completely different way around, while brave new world was about destroying personality, drugs for pacification and forced sex. Island had a more euphoric upper tone, and a more free feeling then a brave new world.

of course, i refered a brave new world to a lot of cult elements. which was interesting, because a few weeks before (somewhere in february i think?) i did a little research for a school project on cults. And i came on charles manson and the manson family. I have heard of manson, but never really took the time to listen, read and see. coming to some references from the book. for example (taken from multiple sources);

Drug use for Pacification; Manson gave his members doses of LSD, in which the had to see spiritual enlightement, since Manson was very influental and manipulative person, so while they were on these acid trips, he knew that they were more manipulative than in a sober state.

Enforced sex; i'm using a wildcard; David koresh, known for being the (Ex) leader of the branch davidians sect in Waco texas. Certain reports of some mebers were that Koresh would ask women over to his wing of his compound in texas, believing that his sperm was 'holy' and 'ethical' he ravished women, no matter what age or skin color. But the people saw it as a blessing rather than 'raping or a 'sexual assault'

destroying personality; Basically, every cult does this, so this isn't something you shouldn't know, it starts of as a simple process of showing love, and appreciation, then completely crack the individual and then start making your demands, most cults do this, as most people are told what they have to be believed, and don't feel the degrading process. not many individuals dare to be beware of what's really going on, because while they are thinking that they are reaching closer to god, the leader takes all their worldly possessions.

but who are we to judge, there are over a thousand cults on this planet, with half of them with no bad intentions, and another half of making money. People join these things out of curiosity, or out of the fact that they need somebody that they can relate to, because in a world with an insecure future, we all need a figure that we can hang on to.

but anyway, on the book, i highly recommed you reading it, even if it's just an excerpt or a complete chapter, there is something in there that relates to you.

also, here's a new art piece. inspired by listening to GY!BE's john peel session and Isis, i came to his surreal mix of marker work and pointillism, with a high contrast element. concept came from the illuminati. that hypnotising all seeing eye was a great inspiration

On another note....

2009-03-22T10:24:00.000-07:00

I can play some mad tunes on a right handed 3-string guitar and i'm left handed. Unfortunately, there aren't any recordings, so you may be happy of the thought that i might, or might not be telling you the truth.

please enjoy this video. This is not a test.

wrong time, wrong place.
