Costume Karaoke

Wow what a weekend. This weekend was insane. I went on a photo trek and got sun burned. Went to MD day and eat bad food and still had enough energy to have a "Costume Karaoke" event. This event was sweet. Everyone dressed up in different costumes. It was sweet. I love doing Karaoke because its so fun to see people just crack up dance and sing. Its the best way to bring people together for a fun time. I have the coolest people that come to this event. They are so full of life. I get allot of repeat people and everyone is so fun.

I mean lets face it y'all life is short so spend it with people you love to hang with and having a fun time :-)

Your Song

YOUR SONG
Is one of my favorite songs no doubt. I think the reason why I love this song so much is it reminds me of my dad. In fact i think my dad looks like Elton John allot. I have sang this song so many times i got it memorized. I figure I would post a blog in tribute to this song. I have two recording below. Both at karaoke bars. the first one was done at a bar in va beach. Sound recording is a little low but if you turn it up its not bad for a karaoke bar. The second one we all sang together me and many of my awesome friends i got the lucky chance to meet in Europe. This video recording of it was sung at a karaoke bar in Paris. I am so exciting a bunch of these peeps are coming out here in May to hang out with us at the PJ party. Going to be sooo fun.

Music is art and art is always a great thing :-)

Cali Trip Episode 1 ( San Fran )

I left my heart in San Fran. Well not really but it was great to see all of the old places. I check out my old house at 90 Webster street. Got a great burrito from my old place. Checked out the beach and yes Twin Peaks. Packed as much as I could in one day of sight seeing but whats the point of words. My video blog is much better at explaining it all. I will add my video from the farm soon also.

One of the cool things i got to do was visit my moms new business making signs. They are really cool. I video some of it but she did not want it posted as she has some trade secrets. But the work she is doing is very cool and very artys. Got to love art its an awesome thing.



Note: In the video it was not my high school it was my middle school hehe :-)

Poor Country Farm Boy Goes Home

HAYFORK THE LAST DAYS
Its been 20 years since I have been back to the place i grew up as a kid. The place my brothers and sister refer to as "THE LAND". The last time i saw the place I was 13 and some officers were looking for me and my friend Matt who was one of my closes friends on the farm. The police drove up and me and Matt ran to the hills like scared little kids. The second time a friend of the family came out to find us and assure us the police meant no harm. We were dirty poor mountain kids hehe really. I mean we knew that land like the back of our hands. No one was going to come take us away with out us going. But we did go. The police picked us up and took us away. Now I will be coming back and I am not sure what to expect. I think of going back now and all i want to do is climb the mountain and sit in the woods and think. When I was a kid at night we would here the coyotes yell back and forth as they were trying to find each other. Almost as if they were looking for each other. One would yell on one side of the mountain the others would yell back. it was amazing and it was nature.

ALL GROWN UP - OR SO HE SAYS:-)
I left a kid 13 years old scared and not knowing where I would end up. the first thing I got when i left the land was a new pair of shoes. I never remembered having a white pair of shoes that looked like this in my life. All of my shoes were always used hand me downs. I left with a dream to do something with my life. To be someone. To maybe some day have a care and maybe make a semi decent living. I wanted so badly to not worry about where i would get my next meal from or ever being Hungary again. Now I look back and can not believe i was ever that kid. I can not believe where I came from. I have no idea how i got to where I am now. I look in the mirror and wonder some times if that was ever me or was it some strange dream. I will say one thing I never regretted anything that happen in my life. Be it good or bad. I leaned so much. When i buy something I always enjoy it. How many people can say that. A simple cup of hot coco to a new TV. What ever it is i get I enjoy so much because to this day I still remember what things were like and how lucky I am to this day. How I have when many have nothing. I am thankful for this and feel oh so blessed. Sure maybe I still can not spell but I can do almost anything else I have ever put my mind too and for this I am for ever grateful.

Making Dumplings

Tonight I leaned to make dumplings with my friend Sharon and new friend Karen. Both were so very nice to open up there home and show a rag tag group of dc peeps how to make them. Yes there was a big contraversary who makes better dumpling the Korean style of the Chinese style. I have to admit i loved the Chinese style dumplings with the Korean sauce. Hmm so good. The video tells the story of the making of the dumplings. Hmm Hmmm sooo good :-)
