  This year has been a very great year, it has brought us many good memories. Some better than others but that just depends’ on who’s getting into more trouble. I have met and made a lot of good friends this year, some I really don't consider hanging out with but that's just me. This year has also brought me closer to a lot of my old friends. Overall this year for me has been a big learning experience, not only in school but in life.


  When it comes to friends, I got the best. These people have taught me and stuck by my side threw the thick and thin. Let me start off by saying that my best friends and my brothers are Hiroshi, Andres and Ruben. These three dudes are my ride or dies’, we would take a bullet for each other. Besides my hanging dad, hanging out with these three locos has made me who I am today. Then there’s Jazmine , who has been in my life for the past three years. She has taught me so many things about life and especially about girls. This girl has taught that girls a big pain in the butt. My next victim is Matthew Lujan who I have just met this year. We have made some very good ass memories in and out of school. This right here is my dope half Mexican brother. Then there’s Julain, he calls me his dope half black brother, I don't why but I guess I'm going to roll with it. When it comes to friends, you can say I have made friends with the best of them.

  This year has brought us many good memories, like times we would do good and times we would mess up and get in trouble. There be this one day I will never forget, my friend Andres had just borrowed a camera from the school because we were going to film a little production. We filmed a scene where we go to McDonalds in Rubens truck. Rubens truck is just a one seat truck and, there was about like six of us all jammed into that little space. I had to hide in between everybodys legs because I was the skinniest one. So this lady from Mcdonalds comes out with our food. I'm all cover up in sweaters and clothes. This lady comes out with our food and they hit me with bag and I start moving and Ruben says" Shut up you don't want that duck tape do you!" and I start screaming hysterically and moving all around. The lady freaks out stops and listens for a while and takes off into the McDonalds. 10 minutes later we see a bunch of cops rushing to that McDonalds. Of course we did some more things and recorded it, I just can say what we did. So the next day we go to school and Andres has to return the camera, the teacher watches our videos and Andres gets suspended and kicked out of our school. Man was he pissed, but now we look back to that day and laugh our asses off. I could sit here and write about the other memories I have had that are way crazier than that but then I would be getting carried away, just know that the adventure has just begun.

  My story just keeps getting better and better. I know I'm going to have my ups and downs but I'm never going to break down. I learn something new every day and I teach somebody something new every day. A great teacher once told me "Cease the day." and thats what I plan on doing for the rest of my life.

Anything possible but nothings fo sho!!

  Some might say lifes full of opsticales, some harder than others but for me lifes full of adventure. I spent a lot of time bitching and complaining  about how hard life is but in reality it's not. You just have to look at life at a different angle. I spent most of time always worrying about others and never stopped to think about myself. This is where I started to realize why I was put on this earth.

  Well I know I'm 16 but I'm living like a 21 year old. I love to have fun and make every moment rememarble because you live once and me I plan on living history and my mark on this earth. How? You say. Well I'ma start my story by saying that I'm a 16 year old graffiti artist who has 99 problems and a girl aint one. I know I won't become a millionare off doing art but for me it's for the love of art and thats all that matters.

  To many art is just a bunch of lines and wierd shapes cordinated very well but for me it's life. My art work reflects my life the colors the lines the style, they say a picture says thousands of words. Well I guess my art is my autobiography just in symbols and colors. Anybody can draw but few actually draw to express life. Art can express poverty, childhood, love and anything that the artist might be feeling at that moment.

   I've been drawing and painting for over 5 years now. Can you imagine a eight year old running wild with a sharpie. I used to tag my old elementary school, nothing to be happy about but I just had to let you know where I started. I started taking it serious in the summer of 08', at the age of 13. I came up with a local krew that me and some ex friends started, I was the original leader of a three man krew. This krew is going nation wide but let me tell you that none of them know eachother or are worth painting with. I have friends who have drawing and painting for a shorter period time and they're way better than them, but that's another story.

  I know I'm not the best role model because yes I'm a sinner but I'm also a winner. I try to not do bad but I'm going to do what ever I have to do to make it to the top even if it means biting the hand that feeds me. Now in days people are not slacking and are constantly doing this and I plan on leaving history for my childrens children to remeber me by.

Wisdom Qoute

-T.I.P-

"Stop bitching and live life."

Excuse my french but I didn't have another way to explain my lifestyle. I live life to the fullest no regrets and I move foward.Only looking back to the good and the bad to learn from mistakes. Nobody knows when we're going to go but till that day I'm going to live everyday like it's my last. I'm don't really to much worries in life and not only because I'm young  but because I have a great family, friends, and so many traits that will get me threw even the biggest of challenges.

  Living life to fullest, let see where I start. Ah, yes. Lets start by saying I love to have fun anyway I can, even if it involves getting into trouble because down the road where going to laugh about. I'm a serious guy, most of the time. You'll hardly ever see my mad or sad because I'm always laughing and having a good time. I hardly have any enemies and it's because of my personality, and to all the people who don't like me, they write me a letter which I never will read.

  I never tend to have regrets of what I do or what I have done. Life a bitch then you die, So I try not to stay stuck in the past. I move foward the only direction for me I guess. Everyday is a new day and this life is only borrowed to us, and I always try to make the best out of every situation wether be bad or good. I take everyday as it comes, well atleast on the weekends atleast.

  Friends, not to much to say but I got real friends who will ride or die for me and I got friends who I'll hang out with. I think I'm the luckiest dude on this earth, and not only because my friends are the best but because I also got a family who always has my back. Threw the thick and thin these people always lead me to the right path, when I already know my future is set.

 Life a rollercoaster it has its ups and downs, but what ever it is I'm going to along for the ride. The only way they're going to get me off is when my ride is over and the way things are going I don't see my ride ending till the big man says it is.

I would like to be....

The person I would like to be for a day would have to be Can 2 a famous Canadian graffiti artist, who has been writing graffiti for half of his life. One of the best this graffiti writers to date, a New york wild style with a twist. Sponsored by Montana spray paint, one of the largest high quality spray paint company of this era.

 

  This guy is my idol when it comes to graffiti, his style is so clean and original. Many try to do it like him and many have failed. His color schemes and shading techniques are so amazing and for him it's cake. His can control is outstanding, like if he were using a pencil. Straightest, clean lines and even coats of color, it's like seen a super model walking into smiths, everybody is left in aw. I guess hard work does pay off, because he's been doing this for half of his life.

  Half of his life is a lot of practice. I've only been doing this for a few years and I'm already well known in Albuquerque. Like every graffiti writer he's been busted by the cops, and so have I.  It's nothing to be proud of, but he it makes you a smarter artist. It even makes you think if you really want to keep doing graffiti art, for me I guess I fell inlove once I sprayed my first can. Like a great artist once said " It's like the greatest thing next to sex". Many might think well that's stupid but in reality it's true.

   I guess this story went from my favorite writer to my own life story as a writer. It's not the easiest life, but then again life isn't easy period. All I can say is that I'm going to live my life even if I'm not Can 2 or Seen or Cope. Graffiti is my life and it will always be till God decides it's time for me to leave my last mark.

 
 

 

Poem

“Today is the day to start. Realize that you are not forever. Begin today.”


– Anonymous quote on a bathroom stall



Phrases scrawled on a bathroom stall

Holy scriptures of adolescence

Psalms of hormone-driven emotion

Etched in pencil

Or pink or black marker

I love so and so

Inscriptions of hope

Love not war

An occasional cruel word

The tribulations and triumphs

Of the teenage soul

Impassioned phrases

Seeming so insignificant

Meaning so much

Behind each of these statements

Lies a poem unwritten

Betrayal

 

Not to long ago I had a friend, as a matter of fact a "best friend' nearly my brother  but after many years i finally realized that he was just a joke, a buster. For all you people out there who don't know what  a buster is, a buster is someone who says they are something they're not. Anyway back to the story, well i've known this kid ever since the 3rd grade and he was my friend all the way till 9th grade. We had our problems but the truth didn't start unfolding till we got to high school.

So many secrets, so many lies. The person who I thought was my ride or die was really my enemy. I figured out that he would talk crap behind my back and try to get with my girfriend or should I say girlfriends. Everytime I would achieve or accomplish something he would lie to my face and be happy for me but later on I would hear people say he was saying stuff to make me look bad. I guess he was jealous, but hey I would be jealous of me too. I would always want to beat his ass but because of the brotherly love I had for him I never laid a fist to his face. When I found out he would try to get with my girlfriends I really didnt care because girls were like candy, and flavor any type I could have them all. That was when I was little kid, but now I got some more sense in me.

Even when it came to graffiti he was always putting me down. Starting back in the 4th grade graffiti was pretty big, I hung around a lot of kids that did art and graffiti. I'm not going to lie but back then he was better than me but after many years of practicing and never giving up I final put his ass shame. Now people are like speechless on my stuff and people tell him, dam you need some serious help. Graffiti and art is and will always remain my one true love, and I hate when kids like him abuse her and waster her time.

I could tell you this persons name but then you wouldn't believe my story. Once my brother, my bestfriend, now my enemy. I guess my mom was always right " You came in this world alone, so you don't need nobody". Once friends, now foes.

New Episode

  Speedy debuted in 1953's Cat-Tails for Two, directed by Robert McKimson. This early Speedy was a meaner, skinnier, rattier-looking creation with a sizable gold front tooth. The cartoon featured him outwitting a smart-and-stupid pair of cats, George and Benny (parodies of George and Lenny), aboard a ship.It would be two years before Friz Freleng and animator Hawley Pratt redesigned the character into his modern incarnation for the 1955 Freleng short, Speedy Gonzales. The cartoon features Sylvester the Cat menacing a group of mice while guarding a cheese factory at the Mexican border. The mice call in the plucky, excessively energetic Speedy to save them, and amid cries of "¡Ándale! ¡Ándale! ¡Arriba! ¡Arriba!" (Spanish for "Go on! Go on! Up! Up!) courtesy of Mel Blanc, Sylvester soon gets his comeuppance. The cartoon won the 1955 Academy Award for Best Short Subject.

On a beautiful Sunday morning, right after Mass Speedy was on his way to the local market to get some cheese. When he sees Sylvester chasing Tweety Bird along the border. Speedy rushes over there to help him get away from the ferocious cat. Speedy and Tweety get chased into market, they hide in fruits and local junk. While Sylvester is roaming around looking for them. Speedy and Tweety come up with a greet plan to capture the cat. With Speedys great speed and Tweety great knowledge they make a trap. While Sylvester was turned around they were putting the plan into affect. While Twitty is finishing up the trap, Speedy gets Sylvesters attention. Sylvester then chases Speedy threw out the market and right into the trap. "WHAM" Sylvester runs into a fake wall while Speedy went right into the cut out mouse hole. Then Sylvester steps back and Twitty moves the prop. Sylvester still dazed see's what appears to be "Tweety" but does not see the cage around fake bird. He runs in there graps the fake bird and as he's doing that Speedy and Tweety shut the bird cage and lock it shut. Speedy and Tweety chuckle and walk away in the market. Later on that day Tweety had to go back home so Speedy walked him to the border and gives him a sombero and a pancho to remeber him by. They say their final good byes and Speedy dashes off into the sunset yelling "¡Ándale! ¡Ándale! ¡Arriba! ¡Arriba!"
