Street Boogie

Serbian born, but brooklyn based photographer Boogie documents street life. From Sau Paulo, to Tokyo, and up to New York, Boogie travels into the worlds of drug addicts, prostitutes, gang members, skin heads, and the children all caught in these surroundings.

It's heartbreaking and beautiful all at the same time. His lens captures all the proper angles, lighting and subjects that make it a perfect shot, but at the same time you see the reality behind it and it is terrifying.

Problem Solving Workflow

Speechless

I feel the need to reiterate that personal style is a must. However that being said...it can go to far, and yes sometimes you do need a "2nd opinion". And when I say "2nd opinion" I mean the opinion of a trusted friend who only has your best interest in mind. Not your drunken man who would f**k you not matter what you had on.

For instance, when Amber Rose put this lil number on and then turned to Kanye and said " Baby, what do you think? does this look good." When Kanye looked up from his henny and coke cocktail, all he saw ASS, and then he replied " Hell yea my baby looks good." (insert some more x-rated comments and actions here) However, my point is... that Amber Rose most likely questioned this outfit initially for a good reason, and Kanye was to drunk and horny to relay any sound fashion expertise. (that he normally has)

Next time sweetie, grab your iPhone/blackberry and send a picture message to one of your girls and see what they think. It could've saved you this pix on the net........you don't see rhi rhi's fashion sense slippin do you? Hell to the NO, that women takes a physical whippin and keeps on tickin...

Pull it together Amber, I would say your better then that but I am not sure yet. But you're definitely supposed to be....so yea pull it together. Oh and fire your stylist :) You look like your doing a guest appearance on the Real Housewife's of Atlanta..

Note to self

When an ex says " Be Honest " they really mean : " Tell me what I want to hear"

DO NOT BE HONEST WITH THEM!!!

This is why I dont watch ish like MTV anymore

I love Mr. West. Besides the fact that I am naturally drawn to assholes, I respect him. He is talented, he speaks his mind, and he truly doesn't give a f**k about what people think about him.

All that being said he was out of pocket for this one.....

MTV Shows

Taylor Swift didn't deserve that, as a artist she deserved the respect of accepting her award and getting her 15min of fame.
Apparently Kanye has apologized to Taylor Swift and her fans by saying:

"I'm sooooo sorry to Taylor Swift and her fans and her mom," he wrote. "I spoke to her mother right after and she said the same thing my mother would've said. She is very talented! I like the lyrics about being a cheerleader and she's in the bleachers! I'm in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!"

And I would chalk this up to another MTV stunt, but look at poor Taylor!! Her frail little hands and that facial expression, that's sheer hurt and confusion from a helpless teenager. Not to mention Beyonce looks like someone just punched her in the gut too.... I know that face, thats that "Don't put my name in this shit" face. Low blow Kanye....Low Blow





Then to top off the disrespect edition of the hour. Half assed rapper Lil Mama decides to jump on the stage with Hov and Alicia Keys while they were performing "Empire state of mind" ....errrr beat it kid. She apparently also meant no disrespect, but just wanted to stand up next to her "idols" who were singing about New York. :/
Get in line KID!!! So do all the other 10 yrs olds from NYC. If I was Ms. Keys I would've said " Can someone get their Kid?"

But damn if it wasn't SPOT ON!!! CRAZY

Results of your
Short Personality Quiz
Here is how you rated on each of the Big 5 Personality traits -- extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability and openness to experiences.

Personality Trait Opposite Strength Similar Strength
Extraversion: 1.50
Agreeableness: 3.50
Conscientiousness: 5.00
Emotional Stability: 4.50
Openness to Experiences: 6.00

Below you will find a brief interpretation of each personality trait and what your score relative to that trait may indicate about you. Because this is such a brief quiz, however, please keep in mind that the below discussion may not be entirely accurate or completely apply to you. These "Big 5" personality traits are broad traits, and a brief personality test such as this one cannot provide a detailed interpretation of your scores.

Extraversion

You appear to be an introvert -- less socially outgoing and more reserved than most other people. Introverts lack the exuberance, energy, and activity levels of extraverts. They tend to be quiet, low-key, deliberate, and less involved in the social world. Their lack of social involvement should not be interpreted as shyness or depression. Introverts simply need less stimulation than extraverts and more time alone.

Agreeableness

You appear to hold a generally neutral view of humanity and others -- you appear to be somewhat compassionate and cooperative, but also at times suspicious about other people's motivations. While you see the value of getting along with others, you'll speak your mind when you feel like it. You probably hope that most people are honest, but are pragmatic enough to realize many are not.

Conscientiousness

You scored higher than many people on conscientiousness, suggesting you may sometimes value self-discipline (in others, if not always in yourself), trying to act dutifully when you can, and perhaps aiming for some kind of achievement in your life. You likely have a preference for planned rather than spontaneous activities and behavior. You are probably not usually thought of as being impulsive. You tend to avoid trouble and strive to achieve high levels of success through purposeful planning and persistence. You are also positively regarded by others as intelligent and reliable.

Emotional Stability

You appear to be neutral in the trait of emotional stability. You are likely emotionally stable in most of your day to day activities, but occasionaly have emotional reactions to stressful or difficult situations.

Openness to Experiences

You have scored quite high on your openness to experiences. This suggests a general appreciation for art, emotion, adventure, unusual ideas, imagination, curiosity, and variety of experience. The trait distinguishes imaginative people from down-to-earth, conventional people. People who are open to experience are intellectually curious, appreciative of art, and sensitive to beauty. They tend to be more creative and more aware of their feelings, and are more likely to hold unconventional beliefs.

Side boob

Your hawt Lindsay, but your better then this....Pull it together will ya?

NOTE TO SELF

Intellect is a gift, and a curse.

Turn your mind off once in a while and use your instincts.

Venus vs. Mars

Boys suck.....Throw rocks at them

Only God can judge him now.....

He was an intellect, and a visionary. A true renaissance man.
He inspired, encouraged, and gave a loud " I don't give a F**k" voice, to all those who could relate to his music.
His thoughts through the spoken word were deadly, influential and envious.....

Leaders are always taken before their time... And you can never appreciate his talent if you've only scratched the surface of his music. He was so much more then what he became, but what he became was a legend.

" Can ya hear me? Laced with this game, I know you fear me

Spit the secret to war, so cowards fear me

My only fear of death is reincarnation

Heart of a solider with a brain to teach your whole nation

And feelin no more pain "

Dear Diary,

Sometimes my own mind is my worst enemy. I can't stop repeating in my mind the horrible things that have happened to me....
A part of me wants to believe its because I don't want to make the same mistakes I have made over and over again, the other side of me believes that I deserve everything that has happened to me and maybe more. So I torture myself in my own head to make up for the all the wrongs I have done to others.

How bleak, and melodramatic. In reality all I am doing is regularly attending my own pity party. I'm telling my head to shut up noww....

Cream worthy

Ohhhhh baby....

In person I am everything and more...

I'm everywhere these other niggaz never been before, but inside Im treading water. Steady trying to swim ashore, I'm on a shopping spree to get whatever is in store.

You gotta remember

Every time you have unprotected sex, you are sleeping with someone else's past

Dear Diary,

Sometimes I wonder what I am doing....I plan my day out to the letter, but when it comes to executing the plan.... that is where I fall short. I lack motivation at times, and interest, and the over all ability to show anyone that I care about anything.

How and why did I get this way? Sometimes I enjoy being lost in my own mind, I can't even remember what I have been focusing on, or what I was day dreaming about. I'm rambling now, I must've lost interest in what was bothering me in the first place.

*sigh*
