Photos: My School’s Award Show + Gala

Last Wednesday, my school held a Gala & Award show. I’m a bit upset that I got there pretty much at the end of the ceremony because I was stuck in never-ending traffic :[. I won 3 awards: 2 trophies for MVP in basketball & Honor Roll/Best Class Average in Grade 11 and a certificate for my co-op program. I didn't get my moment of shine on stage but it's all good. I'll be sure to be on time next year...that's if I am nominated again, lol :D. Enjoy the flicks!





Photos: My School’s 2009 Graduation

My school’s graduation was last week and all my Grade 12 friends spent their last moments in my school’s auditorium. I was the soundGRL/techGRL for the night and I had to make sure everything was running smoothly. I took lots of pictures and it made me excited for my graduation next year! Take a look.


Where am I? Behind the lens.

Fully Wholly Collection: Disney Collection

Because the kids don’t play….and Bryan Espiritu is back with another one. Do you not see why I admire this man’s work? So so so creative. One day I shall be like him. If you missed the past Fully Whollys, check them out below.

Fully Wholly: Air Yeezy Collection
Fully Wholly: The Simpsons Collection

This collection of Whollys is based on the loss of innocence. It’s based on our neglect for the children around us, and how many of my generations childhood experiences so differ from those of the youth growing up today. I wanted to take the most recognizable children’s icons and create awkward, intriguing, and somewhat disturbing juxtapositions to a poem that I wrote to accompany the set.
















She’s done highschool

I want to send out all my love, x and o to my homeGRL Jessica. She graduated from Campus Magnet in Hollis, Queens, New Yaaaawk (New York). I am very proud of her and wish nothing but the best for the new chapter in her life. I love you girl. Check out this pic of Jessica and her brother; Dominicans I tell ya, lolllll.




Video: A-Game – Go Head Shawty


I posted this video a while back but I had to post it again because this tune is soooo hot & gets mad radio spins. Here you go people, my favorite twin duo rap group! The song is produced by T-Minus & directed by Aaron A. I will definitely get DJ LissaMonet to pull this one up 10 times at my party. What it is shaaaaaawty, go head go head.

P.S. You see that A-Game logo? You already know who designed it ;]. It’s ya GRL.




Nickelus F x Portishead – R.A.R.E. (Reliving A Real Experience)



Artwork by yours truly.

R.A.R.E. (Reliving A Real Experience) is the latest and most introspective project from Richmond, VA artist Nickelus F. It’s a passion project that delves into Nick’s thoughts about his career, life & music.

Nickelus F gives new life to Portisheads classic material on this project without taking away from the original mean and sound of Portishead’s production and lyrics.

R.A.R.E. (Reliving A Real Experience)
is also a lead into more original work with Portishead that will surface in Fall/Winter 2009. Nickelus F & his band Silverust are working on music with Portishead front man Geoff Borrow that will be released in the UK and of course can be found online.

Look out for that and more from Nickelus F. Thank you for your support.
