Custom Kicks - The Hundreds Nike Dunk High

Jest3r, a popular customizer around the internet made these Hundreds inspired dunks as a part of a contest going on right now. These multi-colored beauties are not only super creative, but the re construction is beautiful. In some recent commentary on Sole Collector, he made the mention that he was focused more on comfort than function, and sacrificing the traditional factory look was worth it. I am still unsure how I feel about the half swoosh, but then again, with the inclusion of the traditional Hundred’s bomb, I believe it would’ve been too much. Personally, I am wondering if these will show up in their store any time soon.

Big Ego Vs. Ego Driven

Since the release of Beyonce’s song “Ego”, I’ve noticed that a lot of people are embracing having a big ego. I take no issue with this because I understand that there are a lot of people who have never had a strong sense of their ego and this gives them justification in doing so.

Although there only might be a thin line of difference, there is a huge difference in having a “big ego” and being ”ego driven”. One difference that I find in the two is a “big ego” starts and ends with itself , while being “ego driven” is when you have a strong sense of self. Of course I think that I’m the latter and here’s why…as much as I feel like I’m all that, I know that I’m not all there is.

I really think when you’re really ego driven, it allows you to be really open to other people egos. I’m never threaten by someone else’s strong ego because I will never allow it to take from mine.

My ego demands of me to live by this. And it’s not because it’s overinflated, but more because it’s never satisfied with what it has done…all due to being super focused on what it can do!

Another difference between a “big ego” and being “ego driven” is this…a “big ego” requires praise…being “ego driven” requires only recognition…

think about it.

SHMOPFEST: The Evolution.

For those of you that live under a rock, Im a part of an elite group of young men called Leaders of the New Skool, or LNS for short. were known in my area well actually around the bay area now as the creators of the phenomenon that is the SHMOPFEST. the shmopfest is not just a party, or a "fucntion", its a full blown event where we have ppl come from all over the bay come down to have a good time. You're guaranteed to have the time of you life and you wont leave disappionted. it is something that we pride ourselves on and many have tried to duplicte the success but have failed. lol

The term SHMOPPIN means Smackin x Poppin, something like the next level of fun. Me and my bros have indeed created a monster. starting from small get togethers at Kool Johns house, then they became small house parties, then Big House parties. Then, they quickly evolved into something great, and over time took the snowball effect and became something out of control to the point where we couldnt even hold em in houses any longer. We had to expand!

We took the concept of the house party and reinvetned it wit different themes and drees codes. shmopfests 1-10 have consisted of pajama/lingerie attire, sports jersey themes, revenge of the nerds, the obama party (on election day),blackout theme, and finally the last one was dress2impress: red carpet theme. we even invented different shmop names/aliases to go along with. I had names such as, Shmoppin Tarrantino, Bill Shmopsby just to name a few.

At the end of the day, the Shmop is just a place to go where u can have fun, meet new ppl, network, not worry about fightin or drama, cuz everyone is there just to have a good time. You officially haven't partied unless youve been to s Shmopfest... seriously. theres many more to come, so get ready. theres nowhere to go but up, and the sky is definitely the limit. we headed to the top my friends.

If you've been to a Shmopfest, I wanna thank you for helping make it what it is today, and know that youve been a part of history. for those who havent, smh.

KOOL PEOPLE DO KOOL THINGS. HINNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE

Allow Me to Re-Intoduce Myself...

Hey Folks,

I'm Baaaaaaaackkkk!!!! lol

its been a while... did ya miss me???

Sorry for the long delay of updates... lately i havent really been inspired to write lately, i been in kind of a rut... =/ but on the bright side I've been thru alot these last couple weeks. so bear with me please but anyway lemme get you guys up to speed...

i decided that the single life is gonna be more convienient for me at this point in my life because I'm still young and all and i REALLy don't need to be lookin for a wife. lol although i miss having someone to share a connection with, its Truly just not my time. i realized this after so many failed attempts at tryna make shit work.

Also,


I figured out what school i want to go to in the fall, its a academy where you can learn hands on what goes on in radio stations as well as gainin intern credntials as you go so you can have that experience on your side.. its pretty nice.

I discovered TWITTER. its this cool lil social networking site where you can connect wit millions of ppl around the world online or from you phone. (sounds familiar, right?) but any way ever since i made my account ive been on it everyday faithfully, its truly addicting, like myspace all over again.. lol

Of course, i havent stopped thinking of the many assorted topics to speak on so i will get back into the swing of things. ill try not to get off track no more cuz really, this bloggin shit is fun.. lol

Heres a lil sumn to hold you over til I return....

The process of becoming better begins with an open mind to change…simply because it’s impossible for anything to become better while remaining the same. And although your mind is open to something new, it’s important that you never lose your sense of self in the process. It is your sole responsibility to determine where to draw the line between being nice and not hurting people’s feelings and standing up for what you believe.
