A Hot Shave

Finally I sat down and finished one of my projects. I made a stop motion video of me shaving my beard off. It was my first one so its a little .... rough .... but I think it turned out pretty good. Here it is ......

Trading, Bartering, and Dreams

So awhile ago I heard about this 17 year old kid that traded things on craigslist. He started with a cell phone and eventually ended up with a Porsche! So I decided to try it out and although I started with something a little better I now have something that I've wanted for a long time!

So here is the story ...... I have had this Remote control truck for years and I haven't touched it.

So I decided to put it up on the local classified ads page and I got a few offers but non that caught my eye. Finally a gentleman called me with a 2001 Specialized FSR Rockhopper. (Its a mountain bike) So this mountain bike was in perfect condition and it had upgraded shocks and breaks. It was beautiful. The guy I traded works for Specialized so he probably got it for free.

We traded and I was happy.

The next day I was on the internet looking at the trade ads and I found a guy that had a 1980 Kawasaki KZ650. It is in great shape, just over 13k miles. The guy was looking for a mountain bike so I contacted him and we traded and I was Happy.



So In less that a week I went from a remote control car that I never used to something that I have always wanted ...... a motorcycle. I plan on converting it into a cafe racer, and then who knows. I will probably trade it eventually and we'll see what I get. I am addicted to this trading thing now. Who knows maybe one day I'll get a house like Kyle McDonald.

Help me! I'm trying to make my dreams come true!

My roommates and I are going to Washington the bigging of October and it just so happens that my FAVORITE band is going to be there at the same time .... THE BLACK KEYS. There is only one problem. They are sold out and the only other tickets I can find are over $150. I am a poor college student and can't afford that! So I am asking if anyone knows anywhere I can find cheaper tickets or just any solution to my problem! Please help me!

Stop motion

Awhile ago I posted a stop motion video from youtube that was amazing! I felt inspired to make a stop motion video myself. That was about a year ago and I couldn't think of anything to make a stop motion video on ....... until now. Let me explain. It is summer time and therefore it is hot! Long hair and a thick beard doesn't make the heat any less intense. So I have been thinking about shaving my beard off lately and so I am going to make a stop motion video of me shaving my beard off! Anyway until then here is another stop motion video that my friend Joy showed me!
