Meeeee-ontage Part 2

all my student cards from grades 9-12. i'd be 17 or 18 in the last one.



both these pics are from the first time i ever went to NYC. i'm about 16-17 and there was a lot of underage drinking and hotel room antics going on. we also got to visit almost every museum and gallery in about 3 days...it was sick and only cost like $400 if I recall



outside of high school in grade 11 or somewhere around there. i wore a lot of blue and blank sweatshirts at the time. that girl's name is becky caulford...we were friends at the time...she was like the only girl in school who wrote graf.


this is a pic taken the night after this dude's cottage party. he's sitting beside me. i think i was probably on mushrooms or just got really really drunk the night before. we are in harvey's(sorry americans you won't get that one) and out of nowhere mad latin girls appeared in the spot. we took a token pic with them because we had a thing for the latin ladies at that time. you can see my enthusiasm in the pic. i was still not legal drinking age but not sure how old i would have been here.


here's a pic of me with one of my early tags. i spent so much money on that north face jacket...i had to special order it since it wasn't available in canada and my aunt paid for it on her credit card. i'm 18 here for sure....


after my last year of high school i went to chile for 2 months to visit with my friend matthew(see last post) who was living there at the time. i grew an afro a few times in my life but at this particular juncture it was at it's peak. i'm probably 20 in this pic.


i can't remember where this pic fits into the timeline at all...but at one point my boy dennis and i went to nyc for like 3 days and met up with this dread named "Trom"...he let us stay at his place for our last night there and we bought half an ounce of weed from franklin ave which at the time was one of the scariest places i had ever been. i imagine the copious amounts of weed that i have smoked in my life has something to do with why i can't remember when this was...

here's another pic from that trip.

The next 5 or so years of my life involved a lot of weed and rap music...both listening to and making/performing. I don't really remember the timeline of any of it but suffice it to say those years of working bullshit jobs and being creative and spending time with my friends is a contributing factor to the man i am today.




I was heavy into camping and being a materialistic hippie at one point there too.

Somewhere in there digital cameras were invented so the quality of my photos improves slightly.



I liked balancing on things after I saw early videos of dudes doing Le Parkour.

I'm totally wearing Brazil dunks in this pic but you can't see it. I swear.

At one point I thought that wearing a t shirt on my head with a trucker hat over it was a good look.

Then kicks took over.

When I was 25, I finally moved out of my mom's crib and the next 2 years are basically what I call the "Crunk" years of my life. We took it to the top in every way possible and it's definitely a contributing factor to my current state of sobriety.


The longest my beard has ever been.











Then I had a string of really bad luck and got my face smashed in by 3 little wannabe thugs and had to get surgery on my eye. Shortly there after I decided to move away from Toronto and live in Montreal running Goodfoot.



I'll make a part 3 later...
