-uptownbandit: The Zimmerli Art Museum →
I didn’t get to explore it in its full. We were on something like a strict schedule but what I did see was beautiful. It started with the exhibit of Childrens’ Book Illustrations. I wish I would’ve pulled my camera out sooner. There wasn’t much but what was there was enough to inspire. I’ve…
New Brunswick in two days
Rutgers and the Zimmerli. I plan on photo bombing the hell out of one of my two blogs.

There’s nothing like knowing when to use singulars and plurals. Seriously, knowing when and when not to add a s or the correct punctuation makes a world of a difference.
I have identity issues.
Favorite Chip track, hands down.
The art of breaking things and letting someone...
Let me first start off by saying, I do not break these things on purpose. Everything is completely unintentional. I don’t know what it is; I suppose I’m just accident prone. My latest unintentional victim is our brand new washing machine. Okay, its not so new but still newer than anything else in the house. I came home from work on Saturday all ready to wash clothes so I’d...

I temporarily forgot about this song. Childish Games by Consequence and Asher Roth. I actually really love it. I loved it the first time I heard it and I dig the fuck out of it now, especially since there’s a video for it. The only thing I hate about this is that its a collaboration and people will automatically turn it into a competition of who out rapped out. It’s not allowed to...
From NYC to SanFran & now Chicago
A miracle came to me today in the form of a young Asian man named Greyson. Greyson Hong. He works in admissions at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and traveled all the way to little old Mercer County to give us a presentation about the school and all it has to offer. There were about 10-15 of us in the room, if that, and we all sat quietly as he spoke more passionately and...

I’m torn between deciding that I’m really not made for this and tearing my hair out because I can’t force myself through it. I can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel but I can’t let this go because I’m only decent at but so many things. It just so happens that I can’t completely wrap my mind around any of them. I haven’t written anything...

It will be a wonderful day in music when people remove the focus of “Top Five” and “Top Ten”. It will be a wonderful day in music when the competitiveness of it all is knocked out of the park and people pay more attention to the quality. There are too many labels involved. Too many trying to enforce separation instead of embracing unity. I know everything in music...

What's with the push to stay local?
It’s like every time I start talking about school and needing to get my applications in so I don’t miss out on housing someone’s jumping in telling me to apply to local schools. I don’t understand why they can’t understand why I don’t want to stay here. I’ve been here for 21 years and enough is enough. I don’t feel like I’m progressing. ...
The final list
It’s been a while but I’ve finally finished compiling a list of schools to transfer to once I complete this semester. It’s been four long, annoying ass years, should’ve only been two but what happened happened and it can’t be changed. In any event, by this fall I’ll be in New York, San Fransisco, Oakland, or Chicago at one of the following schools.

I was born and raised in the suburbs
And for some reason, I’ve never wanted to be me. I was an individual among my peers but never in a way that most people aspire to be. It felt like I was on the outside looking in, scratching the surface but never breaking the membrane. I didn’t know where I fit in. A lot of my friends were white and I wanted to be just that. White with pretty long hair and lovely colored eyes. I...
