and no, I am not going to say it's thousand and great --- I find the phrase too cheesy for the potential this year has --- this year is that year.
Cast that stone --- the phrase came to mind as I was typing.
This year. Will be one of the corner stone years, that one will look back on half way down the line and say,
those 3 to 5 years of doing this and that have amounted to this year.
I am mad inspired, feeling good, feeling great. I am mad excited about the (n). project. I am mad loving 75, more so what people feel about it, it's bloody awesome.
I am excited about the prospects of Studio83 (even though Gorgeous don't listen), I am more excited that S83 has now allowed me to work on the design (the web site that is), don't get me wrong KOTN did mad justice to it --- amma just elevate it.
Gusto, live your life with it. Word to moms. As I type this, I am 30% percent done with it --- I can't seem to get to the end, can't wait to finish it --- it will change what we call 'blogging'.
A few minutes ago, I was rolling with Umdabu --- listened to his 3rd un-released album --- mad ideas happened in 10 minutes --- I am excited about that. ICE+BLOK Sessions are now truly going to happen, I've just found the soundtracks for the sessions, word to moms!
Last night, I was with Sizzla The Kingrat --- he has silkscreen equipment, you know what that means, that illusive t-shirt dream called Apara, Skippa, is now starting to clear itself into reality.
This state of mind, is all because of a young woman I spoke to just before I left for Cape Town. I said to her, the reason why most of the things I want to do never get done is because life gets in the way.
She replied:
... then you need to get rid of the life that gets in the way of the life you want to live.
Amen, Sister.
"... then you need to get rid of the life that gets in the way of the life you want to live." ????? Mad crazy ish!! I had said to myself that I need to do the things I would love to do more and those I don't like less. Hence the resonance.

True,
I think she was saying --- just do the things you enjoy, don't do anything else.

the illusion of a new year is a good one. In my true, the days are the same - its day, after day, after day.
But we give these days names, to kind of give us some level of focus, some...agenda...goals. And it is all worthy.
(can't remember why I got into all that).
but yah, your work excites me. I want to tell the whole world about it...timing...timing...
I really do admire what you guys are doing. Truly, truly - you guys should be on that Mail & Guardian yearly supplement of 100 South African you should keep your eyes on.
I hope you stay motivated and keep innovating. It'll pay off for sure.

On your day after day --- i think its the same thing that Woody Allen said: the illusion of continuity.
But, ja --- i'm secretly* eyeing' you Heartwarmer one of these days our paths will cross in favourable conditions (as in, err, bizness, no pleasure, ;-)
