Western Canadian Meteor

METEOR'S ARE COOL!!!

Night of Debauchery






One night Josh and I decide to go out on the town. We went for a wonderful dinner at Chu Chi, and then had drinks at Lakia, (which Josh though was a hilarious name for a bar cause right after I told him where I wanted to go he said..."oh ya, whats it like?" and I replied, " its like-a..." and he burst out laughing... " you walked right into that one, Danielle!") then we went and picked up Chloe and headed up to Blizarts for some dancing, then over to The Academy for some late night after hours. We were gettin a little hungry, so Chole suggested that we go to Chinatown and have some late night eats. We were almost there when Chole said... "Hey, I wanna show you this place.. its so cool!!" so we go into the Holiday Inn 'Select' and its crazy. The lobby is like this huge coy pond, and you walk around on these paths though the hotel to get to the fancy restaurant, and the other things, like elevators. I forgot to mention, the reason why I got special treatment from Josh was cause he was suppose to have a pool party the next night as his going away party, but cause of stuff and things, it was canceled. I was soooo excited to go to a pool party, that when he said no go, I thought I was going to cry... so he said "Ok, we'll go out and have a night on the town instead, just you and me, kid!" So when were all Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool, and I got this great idea to go swimming in the pond!!! Off went the clothes, and into the pond I went... it was fun, and I would have kept swimming, but it was cold! Chole took a photo of me... im just getting out saying how cold it was.. ahhahha....

Right, so off we go to the Chinese food restaurant, and were having our food when all of a sudden one of the Asian gangsta posse hanging in the back flips out and trashes the place, flips a whole tray of dishes over smashing everywhere! They all get ready to leave then their girlfriends go up to the cash and say " sorry" and throw down like 300 bucks. It was almost like living in Vancouver again, except there was no gun fight.

It was also the first night of snow in Montreal!

I like the photo with Josh and I with the funny face hes making. He looks like hes wearing grills or his teeth are really dirty... ha!

man, I need to start going out again, so much crazy shit happens where your out and about... I totally forgot.. where the hell have I been!?!? Oh! under a rock... We'll ya'll better watch the fuck out!!! Danielle's back, and shes got a few new tricks up her sleeve too....

Potluck-East Indian Style




Chloe and I had this wonderful idea that we should have a potluck every 3 weeks... so we had a trial potluck and it went fabulous. Though this one was small, we all made enough food to feed a small village. JP was just in India for 6 months and so be brought back some pretty potent recipes, Brent choked a few times. He also brought back some bang grid, but the CD kept skipping.

So next potluck theme is "Asian," Chloe has originally chosen Japanese but JP said that was too expensive, so were just going to go with a general Asian feel, excluding India. Im pretty excited, cause this time theres going to be like 10 people, and Evan's going to be there this time!!! YAY! Hopefully I can get some decent photos, the ones that i took were all bulry, I just dont like using the flash... I like the one with JP stuffing his food in is mouth with his fingers.

Oh sweet fractals and Nipple Clouds



And this is what the fractal is going on top of...yep.

Skull and Bones Fractal.



This is a work in progress. I drew the skull and bones, then scanned the images, created the design in photoshop, then screen printed it onto some sheets of "Sebastian" paper that I was saving.

Its a 3 layer tonality, going on top of something else.

Psychedelic Dream Machine


I really try not to post anything about bikes here, cause I feel as though as much as I love them and they are a huge part of my life and art, there are wayyyyyyy too many sites that already do this for me. BUT THEN I found this! There is no way in hell that I could not post this photo, it has all the elements that I love about life. Bikes, graffiti, art, METAL, fantasy, shiny stuff, hots chicks, and psychedelics. I mean really... its just amazing, even though the bike looks like uhhhh... well, no hard feelings, so I'll just leave it at that.

St. Joseph's Oratory






Religion is. Thats it, it just is. It had 2 churches, and 2 gift shops. The draw to this place was to see the cane room, and I saw it and I was happy. I really dont know what else to say.. it was fuckin crazy! The big church is kinda ugly cause its all new, and looks like it was renovated in the 70's. The smaller one is the older one, really beautiful.

Its amazing to see how many people still light candles to this day, these photos dont do it justice at all.

This is a holograph paper where Mary turns into Jesus. Uhhhhh.. What!??!

Isnt that the star of David?

Insectarium






You can only look at butterfly's, moths, and bugs for so long... but it was really cool. One little dude got stuck upside down in his sticky sugar food... I feared for his life, he came all the way from Africa. poor little duder...

When we left we walked around the the Biodome, and there where these trippy glass pyramids everywhere... you look inside and its the most depressing thing that youve ever seen. Conference rooms... go figure.

Chinese Lantern Garden






Ive been wanting to do this for sometime, and I'm so glad that I went. Evan and I thought it would be the best idea to go right at dusk, and it was! The garden is so beautiful, I totally felt like I was in another world, but as soon as we left the gardens to head over to the Insectarium we saw the flood gates opening. We were told that there was an 2 hour line up to get in! There was people even waiting in line to get parking passes... crazy!!!

SORREEEEEEE...


Soooooo.. to make a long story short, I kinda made a bobo, and deleted all my photos. Therefore I cant show you any more from my trip, nor can I show you my trip to Val-David, Which really really sucks, cause that place was totally amazing.

All things happen for a reason so I guess that means this is a beginning of a new era.

Chandrakirti Kadampa Meditation Centre


This is where I stayed for a week, so nice. It was such a pleasure to be a guest in that monastery, I met some really amazing people, cant wait to go back.

much love.
