it's not easy livin' the life…

I know it’s a few days late but hey it’s the thought that counts…

How have the first few days of the year been for everyone?!?  It’s been nice to me, thank god, since I rarely get this lucky with time and / or life =)  actually a few days ago, I had one of those rare chill Saturdays.  Nothing much to do but sit around Starbucks and have some tea.  Well, my friend OJ and I decided to look for a few abandoned buildings and take some pictures and here’s what I came up with.  Aaaaah HDR Love in the beginning of 2010.  Lovely indeed.  Before the whole Auto Concept/High End gig we had this group of five cars and we called it “Regent V” dope ass name don’t cop it since we’re still rocking the decals =).  Here’s the true Regent II.

Narcissistic Much? LOL

This area is a huge part of Oxnard that was abandoned.  Well, it’s now pretty torn down since apparently they’re gonna be building high rises in this area.  They’re just waiting for a few businesses to exhaust their lease and they’ll start.  I don’t know if that’s a smart idea but meh… It’s actually a really good spot for shoots.  There’s an old school western motel there that is a nice location.  Unfortunately it’s all boarded and chained up.  Wished I could climb up there and do some fashion and glam shots.  That would be ideal.  Nevertheless, nice chill day after some crazy ass partying the night before.

Check it. I actually Yoinked this from Noriyaro Blog which can be found at Noriyaro.com Insanely awesome blog if you guys haven’t seen it.

Look at these pictures of this sick JUN Evo X. It retains all the OE parts yet just with the addition of the JUN lip and front side and rear diffusers, the car looks aggressive as hell. Love it. Simple modding but it brings out the best of the car. Seriously Evolution X as far as looks goes, lip, wheels with right offset and then dumped. DONE!! well, as far as exterior is concerned.

Aaahh the new year, a new beginning, a new life… Well, not really. Same life, no reset and no start from scratch. Just same old life I’ve had since birth. The year 2008 just past and I would have to say it was an excellent year for me. Met a lot of good people, memorable people actually, that impacted my life in a good way. Got new accomplishments and done new things that I’ve never tried before. Won’t go into detail but all I can say, once again, is that it has been an awesome year. From the Vegas trip in January, ending it with another Vegas trip last December, to taking part in the FF4 Movie (And meeting an Amazing person) to getting a creation on a video game. It has been a extremely busy year but in turn very rewarding.

Crazy work schedule, parties, hardship, challenges, accomplishments, sadness, and rocking out, all that are ingredients to a formula of growing and being knowledgeable. All parts important to take part of the year that just pass. Wouldn’t have it any other way. Well, maybe a few things here and there but I’ll take what I had. Can’t win em’ all, can’t have everything.

So here it goes. Year in reviews in photo mosaic form. As been said over and over again, picture says a thousand words and I have about 10000 photos to tell a tale. Enjoy.
