Fuck I’m old. Sort of. And technically it’s 11:52PM on the 22nd but who cares. I’m 28 now. FUCK. I know I been slacking on the blog but you know what? I have a career to attend to and of course my gym routines. I’m down 20 lbs from the last time I weighed myself (like 1.5 weeks ago). I’m stonger…. My body is shaping up fairly well. My chest is rock solid and I’m up to 80lb dumbbells. Back to the matter at hand… I don’t want a shitload of happy birthday emails/messages and shit so let’s keep the comments on this one blog post.

“Birthdays was the worst days…” - Biggie

And when I get some more time, I’ll blog about more shit. Until then, Cheerio motherfucker. Bye.

Wow. It’s been a quite the 6 months of detaining my ass at home but today… as of 8:30AM, I was told that I could ‘cut it off’ (some of you guys will understand and some will be like WTF did he cut off?!) - FREEDOM! When I was told that, I didn’t immediately do it. I waited till 4:30PM before I actually detached myself. I video taped the ceremonious event. Time to actually live life again. NORMALLY. Back to the gym. Back to normalcy. FREE AT LAST. Time to put on those dancing shoes and of course… my jabawockeez mask.

It was actually tough to cut into the rubber. Inside the middle center area of the rubber ring, there was a thin metal wire. I guess that’s the tamper protection mechanism. FREEEEEEEE.

So today, I took some time to analyze the metrics to my website. If you own a website, I think analyzing your metrics is a very important thing to do …unless you just don’t give a crap. It tells you what you’re doing right and what you’re doing wrong. What’s working and what’s not. It’s only been half of April and so far the stats are exceeding the prior month. I launched on March 7th, 2008. But this chart does prove the fact that content is king. Not only this is a place where I put my work, I also blog about my personal life. So may think that can be a bad business practice but it doesn’t bother me one bit. I’m human. I go through human things. I’m not perfect. My work speaks for itself. So that’s enough talking from me, here’s my stats… CLICK THE IMAGE! DUH!

P.S. Thanks for reading my blog

So last night (Wednesday night, Apr. 2nd), my friend Agustina from California calls me and of course she wanted me to help her with something. If you haven’t noticed… I’m “that guy” to call when you want some help with something technical. She tells me about a competition that her store, exclusive wireless (a T-Mobile authorized dealer), was having. There was no real prize or money involved but I’m a helpful person… not to mention that I’m as competitive as it gets. She tells me that a co-worker at another store was the “graphics guy” for their franchise for awhile and also that he uses Illustrator. He reportedly submitted 3 drafts into the contest. So I was starting to have doubts that maybe I didn’t stand a chance. So Agustina and I stayed up to 3AM EST, working on this flyer for a “Tax Free Weekend Sale.” - It came out good, but I wasn’t too happy with the image on the upper left but I was too tired and exhausted to continue to work on it. It was due the next day. Damn Agustina and her last minute missions. It felt like the show Dinner Impossible but for graphic design.

So she calls me today and tells me that I’ve won! And the flyer will be posted up at every exclusive wireless store in the Sacramento market. Hopefully if they have future sales like this, my flyer might make it to other exclusive wireless stores in Modesto, Sacramento, Reno (nv), Visalia, Bakersfield, Tulare, Madera, Porterville, Delano, Dinuba, Turlock, Atwater, and Stockton. Her regional manager loved it and the owner of the franchise was impressed as well. VICTORY IS MINE! I just want to thank the associated press, My mother for having me, the teenage mutant ninja turtles cartoon that inspired me to draw during my childhood, and thanks to my buddy Agustina for giving me to opportunity.

Westsideeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

This was very uplifting for me due to the issues in my personal life. Thanks Agster!

P.S. Agustina, you owe me a video testimonial.
