Nov 26th 2008, around 8am, I wake up with a frightnend painful screaming yell, so i jumped out of bed and seen my sister running downstairs to the shouts. I ran down to only see… My own mother on the floor covering her nose with her bloody hands and with a puddle and i mean a puddle of blood on the floor. I FREAKED out. Honestly i was never so shocked and scared in my life… (More scared than when i had a gun pointed in front of my face) Anyways my sister started to freak out and we called 911. Thank god Brooklyn Hospital is like 4 blocks away from me, The ambalnce came in no time. My sister went with my mom to the hospital while i stayed and cleaned up the bloody mess. I thought i was okay with seeing blood but i guess since it was my moms blood that i was cleaning it made me real sick. Im not going to lie, i vomited.
After i cleaned it all, i clothed and ran downed to the hospital. She was in the emergency room freaking out. I stayed by her side till i started to feel really sick and again i threw up. She kept telling me what would’ve happened if she didnt wake up… heh thats her way of telling me to go to school. Time passed and my pops came and i went back home. As i got home i felt really sick and i passed out. I woke up with a phone call from my sister and i went back to the emergency room to find out that nothing happened while i left. I found out what happened to mom though… She apparently hit something and passed out or passed out and hit something that broke her nose and… how do i put this.. Right underneith her nose the crease, it ripped apart. Basically like a 2 inch hole. *Sighhhh*
So Brooklyn Hospital sucks. Im not even kidding, they didnt stitch her back up till 12hours later. What kinda shit is that? In the emergency room you can have only one visitor so my sister and i took turns whenever my pops came out to smoke a cigg or something. To make things worse my sister was looking for good doctors or good plastic surgens but they all seemed to be on vaca cuz of the next day, Thanksgiving. Anyways time passed and finally late at night she got stitched up. I didnt get to see her after it b/c guests were only allowed 11am to 8pm. So that night we all went home. Quiet home. I never in my life seen my pops so mad and angry. He was actually shaking and trying to break things. I hugged him while he cried a little. So thats how that night ended…
Thanksgiving. The infamous turkey family day. So instead of the original thanksgiving plan, we as the family, stayed with my mom in her room the whole day. Spent time with her while getting massive phone calls. Litterly the whole film world wanted to come by to see if she was okay. Crazy! The doctors told us that since she couldnt remember how she got into the accident they would have to keep her for days and test her. Anyways its Nov 30th now. Since that day, i been in the hospital everyday with her while ignoring the world. So if you called and i did not respond now you know. and sorry.
-One lifes can disappear before you know it. Crazy how you appreciate things after a incident happens.

Went out last night to The Park lounge @ 17th and 10ave. First time chillen with Nicole dolo. It actually turned out to be pretty fun. Anyways, theres some things i been wanting to talk about.
-Knicks!
If you know me then you know that i am the biggest knick fan… So what happened the other night? We traded CRAWFORD for HARRINGTON, ZBO and MARDY for MOBLY and TIM THOMAS. Thats a lot of trades for one night and besides that the knicks were playing with only 7 players and we still kicked ass! Q and Nate went crazy… anyways u ask how do i feel about this trade? as much as i hate to see crawford go it all makes sense what the knicks are doing. We did get Harrington a 6′9 forward who can post and shoot the three. We actually been trying to get him for like 4,5 years now and we finally did. kudos. We’re getting a bunch a shooters and i swear if we dont get lebron next year im going to be real tight!
-808’s and Heartbreak
Ah yes… finally kanye’s album dropped. It was very hard to not listen to and leeked songs but it sure was all worth it now. I love the album. Many prolly hates it and i can understand why but if ur on some depressed type mood this album is perfect for u…. Again Kanye! u never disappoint me. Kudos.
-White Collars
Thats the TV Show i was supposed to start working tomorrow. But, again i have such bad luck i got fired before i even started lol. Hear this, the production lost its budget so they started to cut ppl. Theres two HD cameras which usually requires 7 ppl. Cause of the budget they cut 3 ppl. Meaning they arnt guna get shit done. Simple as that. I swear ppl are fucking stupid. Theres a reason why theres requirements… anyways so it still starts tomorrow and their going still shoot with only 4 ppl and lol nothings going to get done. As soon as the production realizes their fucking mistakes im probably going to be rehired. So i’ll probably start Wednesday. Hopefully.
-Friends
Ahhh friends, lost many but the one that sticked gained more respect and love. The friends i have left nowdays are truly good friends. Shit i used to have a whole click. Now look what happened to each and one of ya… Its a shame. But its also good i guess. I moved on to big and better things and look at me now, i got a bright future ahead of me. Friends come and go, but theres a few who i know will stay with me till i die. Especially like Lizahle. I dont know what i did to deserve all these things from her lol She Cooks for me! Always down for anything, even payed for my tattoo. Def a down ass….. chick lol And well im not going to name anyone else. U guys all know i love ya equally.
I need to sleep. Nighty night.
My cousin left yesterday. He’s been here with me for a whole month thru all the partying and drama im sure he had fun… See u in a month! Paris here i come!
Instead of long texts that can take forever to write.
Pictures instead!

Tony,
Chris has been a phenomenal asset to us. Always there, always paying attention, offering to help out because he already sees what needs to be done. It has been great to have someone with such an active brain and above average intelligence on our team. He will go far. We will miss him the next couple of weeks when we are being forced to bring in a political hire. His set demeanor and work ethic are exquisite. I hope he can come back again and finish up the job with us. Heather” |
So i pretty much got released. It sucks balls. I even turned down a tv show to work on this and now i cant get on that either. Released because the DP owed a favor to someone for my position. Ahhhh but its whatever i got to move on. I might be back on this movie after thanksgiving but its not guanteed. Anyhow at least they know how hard i work and how good i am that they’ll def want me back for a next movie or something.
Anyways Last night was crazy. My cousin, my spanish cousin marc from spain, been staying with me for about a week now. And Last night was his last sat in America, SO! like a good person i am you already know i had to party it up. Around 8ish my click met up at my crib. While my cousin was getting his hair braided we were pre gaming with bacardi and drinks. At 10ish bit drunk, we headed out to bar called Happy Endings. Turned out there was a huge line so we bounced. Went to No Malice Bar on 3rd and B. All of us started dancing having fun, i was having a blast! Then this girl shows up… This girl i been trying to avoid lol and she came with the dude i got problems with. So whatever i didnt make a big deal out of it. Played it off cool and did my thing. So everything was cool till i was trying to leave to goto a different bar to meet up with my other ppls. And then Drama broke out. I hate drama. But for some weird fucking reason theres always drama between me and this girl and last night got lil crazy. But whatever, i pissed her off pretty bad lol and then we headed out to the bar…
Let me be Drama Freeeeeeee~
God im tired. I thought yesterday was bad.. ha! i just got home! 2am! and whats tomorrow? friday. Yep thats right in film term it means hell. I gotta start taking pain killers for my knees.
