This is what happens when you don’t have to go in to an office every day.

This is my first recorded freestyle. In other words I just made up whatever came to mind. I think I can do better, but whatever.. it was fun and random. I was also sick this week so couldn’t go out and work out much. At least I let loose on my musical side.

Youtube has spawned a new generation of online musical artists doing more and more “covers”.

Well at least it seems to me that I’ve been hearing that word more and more.. so u know what?

I made a little “cover”.. go ahead, get lost in it!

Check it! Ungh!

By the way, the song is called “Lost in Love” by NB Ridaz. We are just being random.

Quick mini shout out to Ryan Huang and Cool Silly for inspiring me to make random music videos.

I think the title of the post says it all.. but just to announce it, I got my FIRST DONATION today!

THANK YOU TIGER SHARK! YEAR OF THE TIGER! Woot!

first donation

When I first set up my blog, I found this donation tool and put it up, but then after a month or so I took it down because I thought, who really cares about donating to me and it’s probably a stupid idea… and in fact!.. just a few days ago I was upgrading some plug-ins on the blog (just to make sure its spam and virus FREE!) I saw this “donate tool” O_o…. so I thought, I’m pretty unemployed; it couldn’t hurt to put it back up.

…and u know what miracles do happen. A few short days after I put the donate tool up, I got my first donation.

I want to say THANK YOU again.

I think these contributions big or small are helpful to me because for one thing.. I am unemployed. haha. I am not saying that I will starve, but when you give up stability for an unstable but passion filled future the more financial support you have, the easier it is to keep your wits about you and help you stay focused on purely doing what you do and achieving those goals. It shows me that people who are following my journey support what I am doing. To me, it means that I have made a connection in some way whether it’s just an entertaining post, an inspirational beam of hope, or a reflection of someone else’s life and goals. It helps me continue on my path towards success in business, entertainment, and martial arts. It helps me continue writing this chapter of my life’s story.

I don’t think I have mentioned this phase in my life yet.. because I probably didn’t feel it was relevant until this post.. BUT.. what are my plans if and when I achieve these goals I set out to do ?

I would like to re-focus my energies on creating a charity or foundation to spread good. I have not thought that far ahead as to what specific aims this foundation would focus on because its too far forward right now and things always change… I feel that when that time is near I will be inspired by something in my life and know what the focus should be on. In a general picture I think I am always in support of medical research, children, and the environment.

I guess I am just talking out loud again, but yeah, in addition to helping me “make it” in these goals I have.. I see it that anything that helps me and my businesses succeed is something that also helps my foundation succeed. I know that it is pretty presumptuous to think that I will be so successful that I can actually create such a foundation or non profit organization, but these are just my plans and I am verbalizing them. I don’t know what the future will bring I can only gravitate towards my goals and make them known so that if there are like-minded people our efforts can be in unison.

Enough philanthropy talk. Time for me to go train. =)

300 NT = about $10 All you can eat Vegetarian / imitation meat buffet!! woohoo!

Then later – MUCH LATER – that day I crave real meat after a night of partying at PRIMO in Taipei and we end up at the world famous McDonald’s. Here I accidentally discover a special trick to get an EXTRA free meal.

Please do not try this at home.. or at McDonald’s. It was actually just an accident that I got an extra meal. =P

Then the next day Co-Host and Video-grapher Sarah and I head to the “Fu Hua Fan Dian” or Howard Plaza Hotel and I bring you along on an exquisite display of floral and panda art work. It is quite magnificent! Please remember the pandas!

We enter the Art Gallery!

Kimbo Slice

Internet star kimbo slice goes up against big roy nelson on The Ultimate Fighter ‘TUF 10′.

This video took me a while to find so I thought my fellow mma fans could appreciate this link to the Kimbo Slice vs Roy Nelson fight.

http://mixedmartialartvideos.com/kimbo-slice-vs-roy-nelson-video-tuf-10-episode-3/

(Spoiler comments below) ————-

The fight was sort of as expected for intelligent viewers. Many people obviously WANT to see Kimbo knock people out like crazy, but he’s just a novice mma fighter at this point. Roy Nelson has experience and many more wins under his belt. What could we expect? Kimbo definitely creates added publicity and hype for this season of The Ultimate Fighter, but his performance in this fight was a little lackluster. I know you got a heavy 265 pound guy on top of you, but it didnt even seem like he was trying to get him off.

What do you guys think?

Erotic Services

I am surprised to hear this. Although it is partially due to the death of a prostitute in Boston, I have mixed feelings on a site being forced to change their content/categories. I feel craigslist is merely providing a forum for trade and communication. I can understand the heat coming on them, but at the same time we can’t ‘protect’ everyone all the time and instead of it being open and trackable on a relatively secure site, this sort of stuff will still spring up and exist on other sites. My point is that anyone could actually be in danger or killed if they meet up with the wrong person – be it for buying a couch, xbox, or sex.

adult services

BOSTON (Reuters) – Online classified site Craigslist will replace its “erotic services” ads with a new adult category following pressure by state authorities after the murder of a masseuse who advertised on the site.

The “erotic services” section will end within seven days and be replaced by an “adult services” category where advertisements will be individually screened by Craigslist staff, Craigslist said in a statement on Wednesday.

The measures could set a precedent for similar sites, said Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, who led a 40-state task-force on Craigslist and campaigned publicly for tighter controls on the San Francisco-based service.

“Closing the erotic services section, a blatant Internet brothel, should lead to other blocking and screening measures, and set a model for other sites, if Craigslist keeps its word,” he said.

Craigslist’s sex-service listings have faced intense scrutiny since the April 14 murder of 25-year-old masseuse Julissa Brisman, who advertised on Craigslist in Boston.

Philip Markoff, a 23-year-old Boston University medical student, was charged with killing Brisman and with attacks on two other women he met through Craigslist ads.

Megan Fox

Megan Fox Bi-Sexual
Transformers actress says she fancies women…

Megan Fox has revealed that she is attracted to women but would never consider giving up men altogether as she wouldn’t want a man’s ‘dirty’ seconds.

As the male population breathe a sigh of relief that the former FHM sexiest woman on the planet is still into men, the Transformers actress claims that she is attracted to women but would only sleep with a lesbian.
Talking to Esquire magazine, Fox stated: “I have no question in my mind about being bisexual.”

She added: “But I’m also a hypocrite: I would never date a girl who was bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I’d never want to sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.”

The actress, who is currently dating Beverly Hills 90210 actor Brian Austin Green since 2004 also recently claimed she would never consider dating a younger man like Zac Efron or Robert Pattinson.

Fox is set to star in the second Transformers film, Revenge Of The Fallen in the summer.
