the swine!

so, the end is nigh at last! we're all going to contract swine flu and have lots of coughs and other stuff then kick the bucket! better start stock-piling all the essentials such as cashew butter and baked beans! also have the possibility of going out to live in the country at my dad's house near reigate if it calls for it!

this all started in factory farms by the way, so you know, do something about it guys!

all jokes aside, i actually captured photographic evidence of the vast clouds of swine flu as it traversed across greater london! prepare to be stunned by the damning image below!


even individual influenza particulates can be identified! this leads me to the chilling conclusion that we're all doomed and we might as well start the lootin' now baby!

peace, loot x

school is chill

it's that relaxing time of sixth form where you don't have any work to do and you get loads of time off. it's just the exams which are the kick in the arse. the weather ain't playing up too much at the mo' though so that's an added bonus! great!

rapid transit.

today, my bike arrived. fresh from the box me and joseph worked to assemble the ''80%'' already completed bmx. 7 spanners, 4 alan keys, 3 screwdrivers, a lid-full o' cooking oil and 2 hours later the metallic masterpiece was ready (though the tires were still a tad on the squishy side).

We set off for a little ride round our east london neighbourhood and began to find ourselves heading deeper and deeper into the city. jumping redlights and pulling out infront of angry bus drivers and swearing motorists we cruised through london. we found ourselves at oxford circus after riding for roughly an hour and a half. unsure of what to do we took turns manning the cycles and purchasing various snacks and beverages from inviting offies, as well as perusing around the fave outlets. we thought it best if we started heading home, in the knowlegde of the quest ahead of us we were unsure how to get there. we assured oursleves that as we got to the west end unnaided surely we'd be able to get back to the ends in one piece.

dodging buses near chancery lane i slowed down though joseph 'mr no-brakes' (i'm yet to reach that calibre of bmx riding) didn't see this manuva fit. he was behind and instead of swerving past in a stylish fashion yelled ''speed up!'' roughly 0.23 seconds before impact. my bike wobbled as he made contact and toppled to the ground in the middle of a busy london road 'shit' i thought 'this could be bad'. god however seemed to be on our side and decided not to place any speeding cars behind this clumsy pair of riders. joe survived with a few cuts and bruises on his hands and arms etcetera though the feeling of guilt remained in me...

anyway we navigated out of central london and back toward our home. fatigue was really kicking in for me, new in the biking department, though i pulled through and we stumbled through the front door a mere four hours after departing. peanut butter on toast and water all round.

lucidity - at last

for those who know of my personal quest for lucid dreams they will be familiar with my endless scribblings of the previous nights adventures. this has finally (after a long three months) paid off, and it was a pretty surreal experience.

after getting loads of long, vivid dreams at the start of the year i decided to nuture it. this continued the phase and i continued to get more lengthy and fun adventures. i've got pages and pages of bullet-points from different nights, some of which had up to 7 dreams in them! each page unlocks a strong memory of a situation or feeling, it's quite nice too have all these interesting little things that can be easily accessed.

anyway, to the actual dream in question baby. was quite strange that i hadn't been that strict or precise with my dream recall recently and hadn't been really writing anything down. so it was basically out of the blue, which i suppose is relatively cool (you can judge that). but i did go to sleep very late, around 5am, which may have had an impact. for any of you who care this lucid dream occured on saturday 28th march.

but yeah, the dream, i'll cut out the beginning for times sake. me and some mates were bmxing round the back of some big concrete building and a security guard came up to us and accused us of having drugs on us. i just flipped out and chased him while shouting and managed to take him down. then went on to punch him in the face and the people i was with caught up with me. i asked them to get my jacket from where we were before but they arrived back with my blue and orange mishka crew, but i was wearing it already! so there were two of the same jumper. this made me realise, within the dream, that i was in a dream. it then also sprung to mind that i could now control it as it had become lucid. we walked down the path we were on and i could feel myself starting to wake up, but i didn't, and i stayed in the dream, which was now lucid.

i don't want to go into the specifics because for all i know a young child could be reading this. but let's just say it was fun but only last a few seconds, it then reverted to a normal dream, even though i was aware it was a dream, i was not in control. was stuck on some gardening website and needed to get off of it to find inspiration for more lucid adventures but i couldn't control it to get off of the website. so i guess this means the ending wasn't lucid, even though i was aware it was a dream.

hopefully more to come!

keep watch

volume seven of the Mishka keep watch mixes was put up today. i was glad to see (or hear?) that it is following suit with the recent installments - just a fab soundtrack to jam to. first four minutes were just great, but then it got into eastern jam and i ain't feeling that tune at all! sort of this big patch of crap in the middle of all this wonderful music.

also loved the chill moment about 20 minutes through, a nice little breath of fresh air. so peaceful. i don't have the determination to find out which song that is from right now though, maybe save that for a rainy day.

check out the mix here:

save the world

just been watching some old school jackass episodes and i was getting ready to film the 'shark ride' part because brandon's voice-over in that bit is just priceless! anyway, i was just sitting there, camera poised, and this advert popped up about global warming and there was this dopey donkey as the host.

he's just there, doing what i always do, putting recycle-able detritus in the necessary place. except he bit a banana skin and that's something you never want to do! mmmm, i can taste the bitterness now, mmmm! he seems really relaxed too, there's no rush. love his style!

but i was also thinking, was this animal treated properly for this filming? tried looking into it on the internet but couldn't find any results which amounted to anything spectacular. it would be sad to think that he donkey went through any suffering to promote a positive attitude towards the environment. this would be a counter-productive way to go about things.

anyhow, here is the video you've all been pining to see!

fight or flight

so i bumped into jamie on the way home while i was out on my bike. and we had a little chat and all that mumbo-jumbo. then i notice this tall, skinny man with trailer-trash clothes and he was walking at a high pace. he also had a strange smile, or smirk, across his face. my genuine initial instinct was that he was just leaving the scene of a rape. he seemed really cocky and too cocky. then he got into his car, that we were right in front of, and slammed down on the accelerator. his tyres screeched and he sped down the road.

i thought he was a bit of a moron so i gave him the good ol' v-sign after he'd gotten a considerable distance away. he didn't respond too well to this gesture (he must have been peering at us through his rear-view mirror). he hit the brakes and started reversing. i just soiled my pants and began riding as hard as i could. he then came round the corner and like pinned me but i turned the other way. i shouted to my brother to run to the house and open the door or just ring someone's doorbell in the hope that they'd answer and let us in.

i wouldn't have been so bothered if it was just some normal skinny trailer-trash man, but this guy just had an air about him, he was like a schizo and thought he'd just do something literally crazy. and all the time, jamie was just standing there, not acting, not doing anything, just chilling! i then rode past him and tried getting to the house, but the guy pulled up and said "ha, you would run if you ever did that again". jamie just gave him some aggressive back-chat.

afterwards i just reflected on how funnily i acted. but it was just down to how i'd seen him before the happening - total nutter!
