I just received the complete version of another track for my album called "Este Mundo". It's a deeper song than the other ones, it's basically my "heal the world"... lol. But it has a very strong feel to it. I have gotten really great reviews on it from my closest of closes since this is a track that I will not release until I release my EP. But trust me folks, this is another one that you need to hear.

Wet Paint Syndrome E-Zine
There is an article about me featured in my friend Will's "Wet Paint Syndrome". It's primarily a photography, modeling, and art in general e-zine. I did the interview a couple of months back and I'm very pleased with the article. So make sure to check it out and to sign up to his e-zine!

P.S. If you look close enough, you might catch an article that includes my manager, "Babylinda"

Panic! At The Disco - June 30th - Sayerville
Wow...what a show... it started with a band I never heard of called "The Hush Sound", but I liked what I heard and I will pick up their album very soon. The drummer Darren was also a sight to see. He had so much energy and had alot of facial expressions that added to his energy. Great band.
Then, came out these two unknowns that I really didn't like at all. They started off with an alternative version of "Oops I did it again!" that was more stupid than cool. And then they had a 10 minute song that was just keyboard and drums where the girl performer (who was on keyboards) was making dumb faces while the drummer just beat away at the drums.
But then, Panic! At The Disco came out and it was a great show! I know the majority of the songs (it's been a while since I knew the bands entire catalog, so it was nice to feel like a young kid again, studying all the lyrics of my favorite band) The band had great energy, great presence, great use of lights (there were some times where there was one center light on the stage pointing towards the band where it would look like it was a 1920's performance, very unique!)
So if anyone is looking for a great band to follow, I highly suggest Panic! At The Disco. They are a refreshing, unique band that have great songs and just a great sound in general!

Fun Filled Birthday Weekend!
Well, it's Monday and the office is a little slow, so I decided to give a re-cap on my birthday weekend.
Friday afternoon I picked Jen up and she gave me the rest of my gifts. A bag full of my favorite candies, a device that connects via USB to keep your drinks cool, and also a device that is called "TV-B-Gone!". It has over 1000 tv brands programmed into it. When you press the button, it begins to go through it's cataloge to force the TV to turn off. I used it in a couple places and I got mixed results. Some TVs turned off, some didn't, but it's still fun to use!
Jen and I went to a cuban restaurant in the faggiest part of NYC, Chelsea. I mean, they even had banners outside of the windows, but that could have been due to the gay pride parade that was going on during the weekend. We both had Churassco, and it was really good. The meat was very tender and suculant, and the sauce was really good too. Then we had a tres leches cake, which wasn't that good, but I got a memorable birthday presentation from the waiter. He came up with the cake, lit the candle, and said a simple "Happy Birthday". I looked up at him and said "Thank you" and continued to look at him, expecting a song or a cuban style happy birthday wish..... I got nothing... he smiled and walked away, while I sat there like a lump. Sooo, I blew out my candle, we had the cake, and then we headed uptown for my next "surprise"
We got to about 45th St. and 8th Ave. and Jen told me it was there, but there was a line to get in. So, to keep the surprise a surprise, I decided to go to a website and read some news articles on my blackberry so I wouldn't hear anyone talking about the show around me. As soon as I got in, the usher pointed me towards our seats and my brother Juan and his girlfriend Melissa were there waiting for us. What a surprise that was that they were there too. The show Jen took me to see was Avenue Q, and I liked it. It had the infamous "The Internet Is For Porn" song in it, which I had no idea was from the show. It was funny, but very dirty at some parts (let's just say I got to see what puppets having sex looked like)
Saturday was busy too. At around 12pm, I went to my dad's house to have a birthday lunch with him and my brothers. So I had a hotdog and a little nibble of some ribs my father made (which were awesome), then I left at 5 for my next "surprise".
I parked near blvd. east to take a bus into NYC, and I see my friend Oscar standing there at the bus stop. At first I thought it was a coincidence that he was there to go into the city too, but then I found out later he was going to my party at Dave & Busters. We got there and Karla was sitting at a table waiting for us. So we all talked, and played a couple of games. Then the rest of my friends showed up, Felipe, Yamaris, Omar, Lui, even Nardeen came! And then there was a huge surprise appearance by Danny, Karola, and Alyssa! I haven't seen Danny and Karola since they originally left to Florida, so I was happy to see them again. And Alyssa is a baby that's not related to me that I actually like! She is really playful and funny! I also made her smile a couple of times and I even had the honor of being drooled on by her... but I really didn't mind, I mean, she's a baby! Drool is 2nd nature to babies!
Then Sunday came and we all went bowling in Hackensack. I did pretty well in the first game, but then iiii suuuuucked the 2nd game.. lol. After that, we headed to Pizzaria Uno cause Danny was craving it since the closest Uno is 3 hrs away for him in Orlando. I had a side salad and a coke since I wasn't that hungry since before bowling Jen and I had some General Tso's from a local chinese joint.
So yea, a very fun weekend with all my friends. Thanks to everyone who shared my birthday weekend (well, Fri-Sat, Sun was just a regular chill day). Also, thanks to Jenny for my great gifts and my surprises. But I think next year, I'll ask her to just tell me what we're doing since Jen is reeeally bad with directions.

Busy busy busy
I've been super busy with work. It's worth it though because I know I am working my ass off for now in order to finance my music. I tried to look for investors in the past, but I didn't find anyone. So, like my mother always taught me, you can't rely on anyone but yourself. So now I'm working my ass off. I get paid pretty well, but man do I have 9-5s. I just don't like how you basically are a slave to a company for days, months, years of your life. And for what...to buy a house? Car? New toaster? Life should not be like this. We only have a limited time on this planet, were we really meant to be in an office setting, copying, filing, faxing? It really is sad how lost the world has become. All of that time spent in school and college to hopefully get a good job. And what if you get that job and realize that this isn't the life you wanted? All of that sacrificing and nights of staying up late to get just one more chapter in before you collapse from exhaustion.
So basically now I'm more determined to continue my music career. I cannot live like this. I can't wake up at 7:00am, come home at 6, and feel good about myself. I want to live life to it's fullest. The way we were meant to live. And cubicles aren't involved...

Finished recording
I'm on the bus right now and I just finished recording my last two songs with donte. These two songs are called "Suda Y Cansa" and "Este Mundo". These two songs are two completely different flavors of my music. Suda y cansa is a club friendly song with a nice melody and beat. Este mundo is a song with a meaning behind it, it'll be a ballad with great harmonies and writing.
I will update you all when I get the tracks in my hands. I won't be releasing these tracks, but they will be available for download real soon!

First Day at Naturex
Today was my first day at my brand-new job and it was grrrrrreat! I was kept busy all day and I loved it. I installed a PC, a local printer, and I also installed a couple of PCs to the network....and I did it from the ground up! I actually cut wires, unwinded them, put them in a jack, connect the PC, then go to the HUB area, patch the network cable, a voila! It was really exciting and I learned alot today. Tomorrow I will be setting up my office voicemail, company email, username/password, and I will receive a blackberry that I'll play around with. This job = awesome!
