Peppermint Choco-muffs!!

Today started off wonderfully! I was up early to do a bit of studying for my human anatomy final exam and rewarded myself by making beautiful delicious peppermint chocolate chip muffins! I had some left over to reward myself as soon as I ace my human anatomy lab exam as well. Which I did. Which made coming home to these lovely baked goods that much more rewarding. Just thought I’d share my positivity to the world today(8 I can now catch up on some much needed sleep and there will be a video uploaded for Friday. FRIDAY. FRIDAY. I recorded it and it’s ready to drop in loo of the deadline. I love you guys. Without you guys I wouldn’t be here. All of your support means everything to me! Thank you so much for being here and believing in me!

Funny Fact.

As if I’m not strange enough already. But one thing that I don’t enjoy at all is the consumption of grapes. I hate grape juice. I hate grape candy. I hate grapes. I think the world invented them specifically to annoy me. I also hate how they need extra care when you put them in the grocery bag being careful not to squish them. Who the hell are you? King of the world? Why do I buy them? To make my mother happy. She loves that shit. I on the other hand hate the texture and smell of those round little podded basterds. I love all other berried fruits.. Except for blueberries. Mother love of skankberries are they ever the smelliest pieces of sin I’ve ever had the experience of experiencing. Not a big fan of it’s potent nature and I think they should die. Them and grapes. That is all.

LOL @ Keo on the work blog

So.. I guess it’s probably not the best idea to play with the camera at work to see what it would look like if I wore a cute explosive touque and make fun of the work website guy for looking like Dahmer… and telling him to ’suck it’ because I got an iPhone before he did..-_- Because I ended up being on the tub204.com blog. Hahaha well played, Lonnie… Well played. Click the picture to see more cute things to buy for winter!!

iPhone trial.

So today I decided to step onto the wild side and just give an iPhone a whirl. I still have my trusty black berry, but I wanted to know what the hype was about. I have an iPod touch. It’s pretty amazing. So let’s see what the phone can do!

After entertaining myself for about 2 hours just tinkering with the T-Pain application pretending I was a sensational auto-tuned RnB sensation, I found the rest of the phone not all it’s cracked up to be. There was a lot of waiting and lag. Atleast facebook worked and I was able to log in to update my hilarious statuses. If you’re not following me on twitter already, you’re missing out on a lot of smiles and snickers. I frequently update the twitpic too. Oh the hilarity..

After spending the whole day with my iPhone I decided to stick with the berry. She’s been reliable since day 1 and the battery life is way better than the iPhone. I do wish someone could help me fix my black berry problem. Facebook, twitpic and youtube is blocked. The fuck man.

Bottom line. I can’t let go of my berry and it’s user friendly features. Iphone is fun, but I need something that has flash for the camera incase I find something super hilarious to take a picture of when it’s dark.. which is pretty often.

So this begs the question:
iPhone or Blackberry, guys?

ITS FINALLY SNOWING IN WINNIPEG!

I know it’s kind of silly for me to announce, but Winnipeg is usually covered in snow by Halloween and this year the weather has been very forgiving. I’ve been thankful for all the things and people and events that have come my way. And snow seemed to be like a little gift to lighten up the mood a bit. I’ve een a little down and sick lately because of personal problems but I always have a reason to smile from the support of my youtube viewers and blog readers alike.

There is this one comment from my previous serious post about the awareness of sexual assualt that makes my day bright no matter the situation. Because I feel like I can use the voice an exposure that I have to shed light on some very serious issues like sexual assualt upon females. This was the comment that makes blogging and vlogging more meaningful and important to me. Thank you.

“even though so many people told me that what he did to me wasn’t ok, i couldn’t get it in my head because i ‘knew’ him too well & i couldn’t believe, not even in a bazillion yrs, that he would have done anything to me

somehow, you convinced me that what he did was wrong, when so many have tried before and failed
i’m not going to report him but i feel strong enough to talk to him again. i’m going to make him remember & make him understand how it made me feel because he had no right, and has no right to do that

i’m probably rambling right now but i just wanted to tell you that you gave me some kind of strength, and that’s more than i could have ever asked for
thank you keo

2nd Upgrade

I still like the exact same things I did in junior high.
Except back then I was made fun of for doing good in school, loving cartoons and art because I was too ugly for boys, popularity and friend cliques because my parents taught me about the value of my future.

Now people call me brilliant, fun and creative because of all that only because I’m taking care of myself nowadays. I look and feel good. And all the girls who used to pick on me for not giving into the pointless popularity system in junior high, are now either out of school taking care of their babies with fugly baby daddies or in debt because of all the shit they bought check to check to look cool infront of their people they don’t even care about. Even both. I wonder why they give so much of a shit about being so cool.

One girl I know lives down my street and it’s sad seeing her walk around in her skin tight ed hardy sweats cutting off the circulation to her muffin top, pushing her stroller with a case of lucky on the bottom, smoking a cigarette. You’s a classy filipina woman. Goodbye to your life, popularity hoe.

Living good was the greatest ‘fuck you’ ever.

“I’m an import model. It only seems like a big fucking deal to all the popular girls who were only pretty in junior high. Seriously, don’t fuck with the smart kids. They’ll steal your thunder when it will really matter to you.”

Weekly Adventure!

So I’ve decided to update my written log at least 3 times a week. So that everyone won’t keep getting disappointed every time you visit to find that I haven’t written about anything. I know It’s retarded. But I’m here now, shhh. So the first order of business is Twilight. I’ve never watched the first or have any interest in running out in my gitch to the nearest blockbuster to rent that shit any time in the next few minutes. Yes I am in my gitch eating fried chicken. It’s a Sunday night. I have nothing better to do.

I listen to an artist named, Eliott Ness. He is amazing, but much like all the other artists I favor, he committed suicide. His music still blares from the speakers of my car when I go to point B from point A. He realeased an album called New Moon which led me on a very confusing journey through out this month as to my understanding, the new twilight movie is also entitled New Moon. I don’t have cable.. in other words, I don’t have channels on my TV so I don’t watch it. YOUTUBE is where it’s at, yo! So all my friends started getting excited for New Moon and asking me if I was going to get in on that piece of action. Of course me being oblivious to the fact that it was some teeny bopping vampire porn sequel. I thought my friends were into good music and after going on about how wonderful Eliott Smith is I ended up looking like a retard. But in my opinion, Kristen Stewart’s a shitty boring actor who can’t play someone outside her own self and Robert Pattinson needs to wax his eyebrows and looks like he smells pretty bad. James Dean will always be the epidomy of what a real man is. Fuck Twilight. R.I.P. Eliott Smith, your music changed my life.

Stuff I’d like, but will probably get for myself before, during or even after Christmas.

1.) Fly me out to Toronto for like ever or something cute like that

2.) Fly my boyfriend to Toronto too if you’re flying me out to Toronto

3.) Fly me to New York to see the John Joe-Mags and highten my chances of being part of the new line up. Dec 19 is their last tour of the year. Fly yourself out there with me because I need someone to scream “THIS IS GREAT” to during the show

4.) Agent Provacateur lingerie (oh fuckin’ baby)

5.) Hip Piercings

6.) Pay for the rest of my forearm

7.) Bring back to life all my fave dead artists. I don’t like many artists that are alive right now anyways so if you can do that for me, it would be so good.

8.) Someone come with me to California? I’m trying to get cheap plastic surgery and I need a witness to comeback with and tell people “yes, that really is Keo.” I’m probably joking about this.

10.) Melba Toast

11.) Another Ipod. All 3 ofmy ipods are full. The new nanos with the camera seems pretty cool.

12.) An infinite supply of Saturn White Peaches. They’re like crack.

13.) Tanning Minutes. I’m about the color of my wall now.. which is like egg shell

14.) Take me out to a nice dinner that’s not a date because my boyfriend would probably smack me LOL(kidding, I had to HAHA)

15.) Cute Socks

16.) Music (Classic punk to anything you think I would enjoy.. nothing Gay)

17.) As if I missed Bob Dylan. The. Fuck.

18.) Paint job for my car. I’m a terrible driver. Especially when I’m drunk. Wtf eh?

19.) New rims and a body kit. Shit better be Pirellis because I don’t know any other rim brands besides Avanti but they’re bum fuck expensive and not ironic enough for my hipster blood

20.) American Apparel hoodies. Red or something. I already have like 6 black ones

21.)JARREN, fix my blackberry so I can use facebook.

22.) Sub woofers and an amp so I can finally be like everyone else blasting music out of my windows forcing people to love the music only I’m particularly partial to.

23.) Seriously though. I’d accept anything. Don’t think too hard because I even get excited over magnets. Ask Jarren. It’s the thought that counts. I have pretty much everything I need. Just give me love and I’ll well up like a little sucker (:

THE MISFITS + KEO!

Last night I went to see one of the most influencial punk bands in history play @ the Pyramid Cabaret. Yes in MY city. I knew they were coming to town for the past 3 months and I knew how the tickets were SO sought after so smart little me decided to wait till 2 days before the show to actually inquire about ticket availablities. Turns out that the tickets have been sold out for like 2 months. HAH so after being turned down by the ticket outlets, I did the insubordinate thing and went to the Pyramid Cabaret the night of the show anyways to see if there were any tickets being sold at the door or bitch my way in. There was not, so I was that little whiney bitch talking about how I lost my ticket and it’s really cold in fishnets and I need shelter inside the club beside Jerry Only. So after 2 minutes, the promotor felt sorry for me and let me in. After experiencing a huge rush of nostalgia, I ended up right beside the stage as Jerry Only was walking off the stage. I ran over with my camera, asian paparazzi style and before I could say anything Jerry man-handles me by grabbing my hair and pulling me close and pressing the shutter, resulting in this picture full of awesomeness.

Doyle was at the door generously signing autograghs and posing for pictures as fans were leaving, resulting in this picture full of awesomeness.

Gaaah I still can’t believe I weaseled my way into this show for free! Thank the music gods in the sky for recognizing I love music!

I am going to marry Jerry Only one day! I love him and his talented wrinkly face!

A Piece of My Heart.

Today I decided to take a trip outside the city to take a couple of pictures alone. All I had was my car, myself, my mind and my amazing blackberry. I don’t have a fancy $700+ SLR to take perfect complicated pictures, but to me, it’s not about the picture’s perfection. It’s about the delivery of the story in the image. Because I enjoyed myself so much, I decided to share a few with the world.

This was taken on the way back downtown because I read the GPS on my phone wrong. This picture was worth making a small mistake in direction. I turned around and was on my way shortly after.

Cemeteries have always had me thinking about how the people in them died. I often wonder how many of them died happy or committed suicide..

This is my city. Winnipeg is a city that’s in constant need of repair. It’s a wonderful city that has so much potential and beauty. It had nothing to offer me other than shitty men, kids throwing away their lives, girls wishing to exploit themselves for a reason to be loved and the constant need to leave. I don’t think I’ve lived in any other city that broke my heart and still have me love it with all the shattered pieces. A big city containing me and everyone, but I feel more alone than ever.
