So I went to this drawing meeting club thingy at Coffee Cartel and it was fun. I love it when people have different opinions and are not afraid to share them. Like the French say If we all think alike, no one"s thinking!
But, I did notice on the corner of my eye this really cute girl. She works there. I think I have a thing for nerdy girls... I think they're hot.
Anyway, here she is. Has any of you seen this show called "Dead Like Me"? She reminds me of the weird little sister. hehehe.

I feel so good...
I don't know why. Maybe it's because Spring is finally here. I also feel like I'm at a crossroad, come to think of it, aren't we always at a crossroad? lol.
I'm meeting a lot of people and it's great to be in different circles. I can't believe how much I was limiting myself.
I also want to go to Guadeloupe this Summer but I don't know if I'll have the money. If I keep selling art tho, I'll be able to buy my ticket. Yay! hehehe.
I went to this party last night and I have a lot of fun...

Playing video games!
So I'm playing Fallout 3, it's a really cool game and yes, I'm a video game geek. It reminds me a bit of Bioshock, another really really cool game. I can't wait for Bioshock 2 to come out. I'm also waiting for Mass Effect 2, the first one was awesome!

My show in Carlsbad!!!
I guess I have to back up a little. It's been a while since I've posted anything here.
I went to Carlsbad California to an artfair. I really enjoyed myself and met some really cool people. If I hadn't done so many drugs when I was younger I'd remember their names. I do however remember Judy Jewel. I really liked her work.
Ok, so here are some pics of my time there.

Momenta - Necklace videocam I WANT IT!!!
The Momenta PC is a finalist in Microsoft’s Next-Gen PC Design Competition that you strap to your neck. Momenta necklace isn’t a whole lot more refined, but at least it’s a touch less noticeable. It’s got a camera that’s constantly recording what’s in front of you, but it also measures your pulse rate. When you get excited about something, it automatically saves the previous five minutes’ footage for you to review later...[ Click on the title or here for more about this article ]

New years eve
It was great!
I didn't want to plan anything.
I hate planning. I told Tory and Latchi that I would make it to their party weeks before, and I felt obligated to go.
I hate that, but I had fun.
First, Do and I went to 609, in the Loop, to smoke a hookah. I asked to bartender to add a shot of Sambuca in the water.
They didn't have coffee drinks, so he brought us 2 french press coffee with a 2 shots of Bailey's Irish Cream and Kahlua.
I mixed it up, it was delicious!
This was at 6pm, at 7 we went to Tory's but the door was locked. We rang and he came out of the basement sweating and wearing military pants and a Giraffe mask. They were, undoubtedly having sex.
The party didn't start until 8pm, he informed us, we left.
We drove to the Boy's house and chatted for an hour and went back to Tory's.
We stayed there for about an hour and then proceded to our next stop: Latchi's.
Her condo is way out there but I'm glad we went.
I love Latchi, and it was great seeing her and her new place.
It was nice seeing everyone else.
It was interesting seeing the horror in Susie eyes when Do tried to shake her hand, but that's another story.
We left an hour later to go to Perry's Jacuzzi. No one was there. It was amazing. We chilled outside in the tub for an hour.
I'll skip the details of what happened there...
We ended up home at 11:58, just enough time to mix the champagne and pineapple juice and climb on the roof to see all the fireworks from downtown, clayton and webster.
2006, here we come.

Festival of Nations
So tomorrow, Sunday, I'll be playing drums representing the island of Guadeloupe at the Festival of Nations in Tower Grove Park at 4:00pm.
If you can, you should stop by.
One thing I notice about St. Louis is that it's so easy to miss events because there are no huge banners in all the street to promote it. Only the usuals remember.
In other cities, when something's happening, you can't help knowing about it. The ads are everywhere.
Anyway, enough of that.
I had to tighten my drum today. I'm going to have to tape my finger because some of the skin peeled of as I was streching canvas.

My theory on alien abduction
MY THEORY ON ALIEN ABDUCTION.
I believe that the brain records everything whether you remember it or not. All sensations that you had since childbirth, and probably before, are stored there.
What struck me about these stories of abduction was the similarity between them. They all see this bright light, they are then probed, tested, etc... by these creature with big eyes.
Well I believe they are just having a flashback about their own birth. If you think about it, at birth, your eyes aren't very developed so your vision might be blurry, then you are yanked from a warm and dark place into a cold and bright unknown space by these unknown creatures. All you can see are their eyes because the rest of their faces are covered with fabrick. These "aliens" Doctors and nurses manipulate, test, probe, weight, etc... your body.
So between some theory of weird looking creatures probing humans for unknown reasons or having a "flash back" of an actual experience...I'll stick with the actual experience.That's my theory and I stick by it :)
TOMORROW: IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION?

My birth day
SOoooo it was my birthday on June 9th. 38 years old :o I feel like I'm 28 and I act like I'm 12. It's all good!
I don't think I could be happier. I wake up when I want to, do a little painting, walk around the park, play video games, pet the cats, eat on South Grand....what else could I wish for.
I have no boss, no uniform, no timecard, aaaaaah, it feels good.
So I went to Denver last week and it was super great! It's an amazing feeling to be able to sit outside downtown eating a Cali-beni (Eggs benedict with avocado, yumm!), and see the mountain range in between the buildings. That was so cool! There's a free bus that takes you up and down this mile long shopping district.There's a HUGE art scene...well, compare to Saint Louis.
We found a really good Italian restaurant that actually cook the pasta al dente unlike our dear friends from The Hill that calls themselves real Italian (yeah, I know, I'm making a lot of friends by writing this :) ). The restaurant has it's own gelateria. Now that's Italian. It was delicious, I recommend it. If you're ever in Denver go to Parisi
On another subject, you guys shouldn't miss my art show on June 24th from 5pm to 8pm at Gallery M and don't forget also akachique every second Friday for "Arzy Hour".

Azulik...a dream vacation!
Have you ever been to Tulum in Mexico? Well let me tell you it's awsome. Tulum is one of my favorite Mayan ruins because it was built right on the beach. It has 2 beautiful white sand beach and is enclosed by a privacy wall.
The place I'm talking about it Azulik. It's a wood and palapa cabana right on the beach.
The resort is clothing optional...need I say more. It's like heaven. Here are a few pictures.
