[VIA HELLOOKS]
So this is the new year,
and I don’t feel any different.
I am the ringmaster,
in a world of zany zaniness.
This world is like a circus
kinda like the Britt Spears song/album
and I am in the middle
and every1 is looking @ me
and things are crazie
Circuses are metaphors
for when
the world
getz 2 zany 2 handle
and the whole world
is watching
(me)
I want the whole world
2 watch me
bc my prsnl brnd
is worth watching
What will I do next?
What will I wear next?
What will I say next?
What will I be next?
This was a poem that I wrote to support uniforms + dress codes in public school.

XX BONUS FOREST ALT XX
This bro lives in the forest, free from society, and free from design/fashion norms. His life is simple, yet conceptual, and he has a clearer state of mind than you.

[via lookbook]
In 2k8, there was the electro jungle, populated by entry levels in Am Appy headbands + neon/Afrikan leggings & altbros in oversized graphic print tees. Now that we live in a less-electro era, we will venture into the Conceptual Forest. In this forest, we can hear songs more conceptual, open-ended songs. The Conceptual Forest is an incubator for authentic expression and progressive techniques of recording sounds.
In the Conceptual Forest, our minds are free, and we seek ‘meaning’ that we cannot find in a major metropolitan area. We are alone in this Conceptual Forest, allowing us to get in touch with who we truly are.

Will u leave a major metropolitan area 2 find urself [via the Conceptual Forest] in 2k9? (At least maybe take a weekend trip?)
/// We are living in a Post-Merriweather Post Pavilion World
/// And I am a Conceptual Bro

You are so naive. Grow up. Talk about something important.
I think this quote from your page sums you up:
“I ♥ my mom. (She just added funds to my bank account + replaced my iPhone). …. But maybe I had a bad childhood. And I resent my parents.”
Do you see how childish you look? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news…but you look ridiculous.

YES! Please leave Brooklyn and go back to the sticks in the Mid-West where u came from, cause real New Yorkers don’t want you there anymore. You’ve managed to gentrify a truly authentic borough and triple rent. Tell me, is it worth 3 grand a month to live in a closet, just to be cliche and tell everyone ur from fggy Filliamsburg? But I guess its not that much when ur parents pay for half..
Brooklyn is no longer authentic. You can go back to Ohio now. Douches
