How About That...

How about that, i havent blogged in ages when so much shit has happened in the last few months with more stuff happening in the next ! First off i gota give note to the n2s jam during feb! Basically, we lacked the presence of bodies that we normally would have. The night ended with only myself and mark to face the light... literally. We didnt dance as much as others but we did commit genocide on those crickets ... yes crickets, a swarm? of them bouncing around actually. i plucked a couple of legs and before you knew it. i had done so to about a dozen of them - we then fed them to the ants passing along. wat a way to kill time in the night lol how about that ay

How about that - the boys and i went clubbing last night right? Night started at Worldbar. we rocked up so i could say hello to my good friend since it was her birthday. Since i was so not filo i rocked up early with the guys just started drinking. had about 3 rounds before we hit the dance floor - i aint racist but damn the white guys there couldnt dance.. wait.. anyway... they were cool but.. haha heres a thought. WHITE GUY CRIP WALKING.. yep thats about as ironic and wrong in ever way. We locked, we popped, we TORE the house down.. nahhh playing haha. oh yeah ralph was breakdancing too lol. anyhow i gota try me one of those teapot cocktails sometime.. that shit looks deadly.

At about 9.30 we made our way into the city again and to say happy bday at another girls event. Talk about dogs... we rock up and organise to wait for her outside.. some half hour or so late we call back and find out she'd already gone into the club. FUCKEN FAIL. anyway i had stomach ache from the alchi. hadnt had much to eat so i was farting all over the place. it was probably a good thing we were outdoors for sucha long while. I have been to home since SUNSET PARADISE back in the u18 days. ne of u guys remember that? that shit went offff.. i picked up a girl and she didnt have a number! how does that work u reckon?... im asking you coz i forgot haha. so home was aiit.. alot of house music and company i didnt like. enough said

SKYGARDEN - surreal - is the words used by mark. we had what you would look back on as "good times" ... we also witnessed a shitload of FAILS in there. one of those fails kept tryna blow in our dance circles yeah a failure posing as a human... how was it fixed? a simple "im walking away... from the troubles" of my past.. yea thats right bitch. anyway the other fail was with mark.. ask him he'll tell u! haha. We danced, we rocked the night and knew about 80% of the people in there.. talk about fish bowl... yeah i need to get out. snowboarding anyone? all in all the night was hectic from the get go... how about that i cant complain !

How about that I FINISHED UNIVERSITY FOREVER!...CONGRATUALTE ME GAD DAMMIT !. For what was supposed to be a 2 year course took me 3. For all the unpaid work experiences i finally get to PROVIDE for me fam and self ! fuck yes.... Graduation is on March 31st at the powerhouse museum... getting my shit together so i can be sure to attend that without hiccups... yep big bad world here i come with needle in hand.. how about that eh ?

How about that! the boys and i are finally taking practical steps to making n[2]s OFFICIALLY running as its own entity. For anyone that reads my blog i really do call upon u guys to speak up and spread the word about n2s - ill try (in a nutshell) to explain what the n2s jams are about and what it is to me .... uncensored.

first off, i really dislike a vast majority of dancers ATTITUDES.. i dont hate. emphasising that aiit? we have too many hip hoppers in an already miniscule scene that dont do shit to further and better it. one eg. sellouts.. why do dancers get paid or treated like shit generally? its becoz no one takes a stand. if one person wants to get paid for effort they put into a gig.. chances are theyll be scrapped in place for some fools who will do that shit for free.... that aint doing anything for anyone else BUT themselves. selfish fockers. The underground is where i believe is where its at. its keeps egos at bay and gives a place for those that care an avenue with which to channel the right types of energy. Its a place that helps something that seems to have gotten stale since its introduction to Sydney. props to you Darrio "FRANK" Phillips.

.. this brings me back to the n2s jam. it's an avenue with which i have spoken about, it runs in the underground, there is no meaningless pressures on people to perform. We train, we laugh, we dance, we better everyone else including ourselves. This jam session is all bout the dancers and it really is as raw as it will get. We train in any style we believe the other has a strength in and we share what knowledge we do have with those who have an obvious passion for the artform.

^^^^^^^^^^^^ and with that id like to mention the above paragraph will mean shit all to the general community. so id like to breakdown the actual happenings of what does and can happen at n2s. basically its ~~~~ if u like to dance, got a passion or even just a small niggling curiosity about it contact one of the guys or use of the details below. we really do want people to come and jam with and just to have a good time. n2s runs from 8pm to sunrise the very next day so it really is a test physically and mentally.. heck even if u just wanted to exercise this would be a good outlet for you.

contribution to the monthly event?
ALL YOU NEED IS WATER AND THE WANT TO JUST DANCE

.. we got the rest covered. so how about that?

Talking seriously though... if anyone knows of a friend or something that is interested in dancing.. get them to holla at us.

Just For You - Happy Valentines 2009

The following is a lil video my boys and i have put together that took all the time in the world to do..... last minute. haha this video is for our girls "J, L and A"... you know who u are if ur reading this :). Hopefully u find this vid a nice surprise.. coz i only did mention to my girl that all i got her was "chocolates" =P.. anyhow heres the vid.. Happy Valentines :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Verse I - Mark
You shine like my shootin star
Bring luck n love near n far
I don't need to front ma,
My love for you is real,
Tell me how you feel,
Now lemme tell you whats tha deal,
Jump in ma car, n we can ride
To tha south side,
Where we can lay all day,
or choose to bump n grind,
together we can find out how we match,
Then I can brag to your friends howw you're my perfect catch
We can eat kebabs and chill in the sun
Fail Class Together and have so much fun
Do anything to prove that you're my world
& Foreva you'll remain my favourite girl

Verse II - Chris
First time, eyes on thine, wanted to make you mine
Forget the right place, time, as long as we got the right mind
Mesmerised each time when you hit those lines
The sight of you locks me up everytime you smile
Winding it down, setting the mood
Let it amp the room the way when we set our groove
Counting each eyelash, while gazing in your eyes
Watch you fall asleep - time paused - quarter to 5
You're good, you're bad, you are miss independent
You're this, you're that, more than my words ever mention
You're the blessed type, gods given angel pearl
My untouchable aka my gods given angel girl


Verse III - Ralph
Favourite girl, you know who you are
No need to introduce, you know you're a star
Two years runnin, steppin up to three
Movin up, hand-in-hand just you and me
Brown eyes, perfect smile, you know what i like,
You're my perfect girl, you got me for life
Appreciate lil things you do for me
From flyin to the sky, to the things i dont see
Through the good and the bad, we still make it through
Every year we grow stronger, our love we renew
And no matter what happens ill always be true
Cos aint nobody ever love me, better than you do


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Forgotten lyrics, failed software, hardcore rain, failed camera battery, low budget gear, makeshift "black mamba" mic filter, clueless driving, unpreparedness, delirium... and when we were at the finish line - copyright issues with youtube

2009 is a great year..

peace out

~boy takes dance class,
boy gets intro'd to girl.. so he can invite her to this thing called n2s jam sessions,
boy gets her number,
boy already has a 2nd 'idea' of what to do with this number
boy comes back the next week with his brotherly sidekick and checks girl out
boy cant get over how she moves that body
boy is hesitant to make any major moves becoz of the other dose of testoserone she came with
boy soon susses out he's harmless ;)
girl seems shy. seems hesitant but suprisingly she came to the n2s jam sessions
boy has another one of his "realisations" - he wants her
girl has absolutely NO idea... ;)
boy from then on finds excuses and sometimes none at all to contact girl
girl gets the idea... plays along with it... lovin' it haha
boy is into girl
girl doesnt know what boy wants
starbar - enough said... all i will say its because of you
boy and girl took things to more than friends level
... havent looked back since.

' havent known each other for that long, some may even think it's wrong..
what ever! i say - 2008 is now done and gone,
now that i have you, i look more forward to each day,
we can go chillout, and just make everything turn out our way,
luvin' the way you move that body, the way you dance and move,

Hey everyone, been awhile so i thought id share something witchu all. Dance quotes that i carry around with me everywhere on my mobile. Hope these quotes inspire more to dance, motivate those who already are, and get everyone on this party bus of dance.


"Dancers are among the most passionate and dedicated of artists and rarely take their work for granted."
"You can't make a pointe if you don't understand the details."

"Why do I dance?.....Why do I breathe?" ~anonymous

"I don't have an attitude, I'm just REALLY good!" ~Dance Caravan

"If you say you can you can, but if you say you can't your right!" ~anonymous

"You know you're dancing when tears of pain and happiness blend in with your sweat" ~anonymous

"We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams."

"Dancers are an admirable bunch of people. The way they work. The stress is extraordinary. It's a difficult career. I think it's hellish; the fact that they are over the hill as they're emotionally maturing. That calls for a terrific strength of character." ~Lady D. MacMillan

Japanese proverb: Dance Quotes
We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance.

I don't want people who want to dance, I want people who have to dance. ~George Balanchine

Dancing is the loftiest, the most moving, the most beautiful of the arts, because it is not mere translation or abstraction from life; it is life itself. ~Havelock Ellis

They who love dancing too much seem to have more brains in their feet than in their head. ~Terence

Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain. ~Author Unknown

Dancing is the perpendicular expression of a horizontal desire. ~Author Unknown

Dance, an Art Form
The Body, an Instrument
Learn To Play The Instrument
So You Can Master The Art Form.
--Attributed to Debbie Dee.

Dance, one of the oldest forms of artistic expression, requires only the human body for its realization. *Igor Youskevitch*

One is born to be a dancer. No teacher can work miracles, nor will years of training make a good dancer of an untalented pupil. One may be able to acquire a certain technical facility, but no one can ever 'acquire an exceptional talent.' I have never prided myself on having an unusually gifted pupil.

Beginning dancer. Knows nothing.
2. Intermediate dancer. Knows everything. Too good to dance with beginners.
3. Hotshot dancer. Too good to dance with anyone.
4. Advanced dancer. Dances everything. Especially with beginners. *unknown*

Dance first. Think later. It's the natural order.
--Samuel Beckett

I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself.
--Mihkail Baryshnikov

I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than to teach ten thousand stars how not to dance.
--e. e. cummings

Nothing is more revealing than movement.
--Martha Graham

75

To all the ladies out there that come by my blog, this one's for you


1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you,nothing can make him stay.
2. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
3. If you have ANY doubt in your mind about a man's character, leave him alone.
4. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
5. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.
6. Don't force an attraction.
7. Slower is better.
8. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you trulyhappy.
9. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no you can't 'be friends.' A friend wouldn'tmistreat a friend.
10. Have faith in God regarding your relationship, but don't let faithmake you stupid. God does things decent and in order.
11. Don't settle.
12. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
13. If he keeps changing his mind about the relationship--take that as a BIG sign that he is unstable. Do you really want to be with a man like that?
14. Don't stay because you think 'it will get better.' You'llbe mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
15. Honorable men take care of their business and aren't involved in awhole lot of mess.
16. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
17. There's only one 'reason' a man dumps you; he doesn't want you.
18. Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?
19. You really do have to kiss a few frogs before finding the prince.
20. Always put yourself and your happiness first.
21. Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
22. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
23. Like from the show Sex and the City, if he doesn't call, he just isn't that interested.
24. Be honest and upfront.
25. Know when to cut the cord, don't be strung along.
26. Don't fall for the 'I'm confused role' . Remove yourself from the situation to let him figure things out (but don't wait for him, move on).
27. If you want to have a clue as to how he will treat you, watch how he treats the WOMEN in his family (not just mom).
28. There's more than physical abuse, there's emotional and mental abuse.If he causes any of them...flee.
29. You cannot change a man's behaviors. Change comes from within.
30. Don't let him place rules on you that he is not willing to follow himself -- double-standard.
31. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he has more education or in a better job.
32. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
33. Demand respect and if he can't give it, he can't have you!
34. Don't compete with other woman, but be aware that men are attracted to what they see.
35. If you think he is cheating, he probably is. Confront him right away and if you feel he's lying, let him go.
36. Actions speak louder than words.
37. Never let a man define who you are.
38. Never rely on a man for compliments, look to yourself for that.
39. Never borrow someone else's man.
40. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
41. Just because he says he loves you, doesn't mean that he won't hurt you and it doesn't mean that you are meant to be with him.
42. To use painful hard-won wisdom -- 'get it right' the next time.
43. Know that you deserve to be the number one person in the life of the #1 person in your life.
44. Love is a verb ...
45. Learn to give up your life long task of trying to make someone unavailable-available, someone ungiving-giving, and someone unloving-loving.
46. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
47. All men are NOT dogs.
48. You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is a two way street.
49. If you don't love self...you can't love anyone else.
50. You cannot mend someone else's broken heart.
51. You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage...deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.
52. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...notsupplementary.
53. Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
54. NEVER give more in a relationship than you are getting out of it.
55. Never become your man's 'therapist'.
56. When actions and words conflict, believe the actions. Respond to the actions.
57. A real healthy relationship requires two people. One person can end it - but it takes two to make it work.
58. Don't fall for the 'I'm not the loving type'...when a man loves you there is nothing in this world (within reason) that he wouldn't do for you.
59. Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him he takes it for granted.
60. Give him his space...let him go out with his boys, don't pressure =him to spend time with you, You cant force a man to hang out with you.
61. If you wouldn't allow your daughter to be with him you shouldn't.
62. Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
63. Never move into his mother's house.
64. Provide financially for yourself and don't depend on anyone.
65. Never co-sign for a man.
66. Never believe you have the perfect guy and he is so innocent.
67. Never spoil your man; let him spoil you.
68. Never let a man mess up your credit.
69. When it's time to let go; let go.
70. Good men should be treated like good men.
71. Don't play games.
72. You can't make a %#&@$! into a housewife - or husband.
73. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
74. Compatibility in terms of educational attainment, values, beliefs,personal and career goals, and socioeconomic status, are important.
75. Never date a guy who wears colored contacts.

there u have it.. 75 point of food for thought
..oh and some highlighted bits for importance !

peace.
