New Facebook Profile Picture Layout

With the new layout with Facebook, people have come up with interesting ways of displaying their profile pic. You basically use the extra 5 squares to the right of your profile picture (that normally displays photos you are tagged in) to extend your normal profile pic. I used photoshop to create my pictures, but Pic Scatter will do all the work for you. The only downside is that Pic Scatter will leave it's mark on your photo. 

How creative can you be? Checkout the video below!

Bruce Lee, My Brother

There seems to be a Bruce Lee movie that was released last month from MediaAsia. As told by his brother, Robert Lee, the biopic Bruce Lee, My Brother will tell the story of Bruce Lee before he was forced to leave Hong Kong for San Francisco. I've always been a fan of Bruce Lee and I hope newcomer Aarif Lee does Bruce Lee justice. I don't know if this will ever be released stateside, but I'll eventually get my hands on it sooner or later. Check out the trailer.

The fishing school

The name of the school might be a bit misleading, but this isn’t your ordinary school. The Fishing School is a nationally-recognized youth development  organization that serves the young people and their families in Washington D.C. This school follows the philosophy “If you give a man a fish, you will feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will feed himself for a lifetime.” The school offers a variety of programs like English and math to science and technology to help young students get ahead. I’m very proud to say that my uncle Tom Lewis is the founder and president. The school was also on the show “Extreme Makeover Home Edition” that aired in February 2010. Please feel free to follow the links for more information and if you are in a generous mood, feel free to donate.

This Type Love...

I want a love like, me thinking of you thinking of me, thinking of you type love, or me telling my friends more then I've ever admitted to myself about how I feel about you type love, or hating how jealous you are but loving how much you want me all to yourself type love, or seeing how your first name just sound so good next to my last name. I wanted to see how far I could go without calling you and I barley made it out of my garage.

I want a love that makes me wait until she falls asleep and then wonder if she's dreaming about us being in love, type love, or who loves the other more, or what she's doing at this exact moment, or slow dancing in the middle of our apartment to the music of our hearts, closing my eyes and imagining how love could hurt so much when she's not there, shit, I know not where this love is headed type love.

Check this, I want to post those little posted notes all around the house, so she doesn't forget how much I love her type love. And not having enough ink in my pen to write all the loves type love. And hope that I make her feel as good as she makes me feel and I wanna do with my friends, making fun of me, the way I made fun of them when they went through same kind of love type love. The only difference is, this is one of those real loves type loves. And just like high school, I want to spend hours on the phone without saying shit, and then fall asleep and wake up with her right next to me and smell her all up in my covers type love. I wanna try counting the ways I love her and loose count in the middle just so I would have to start all over again. I want to celebrate those one month anniversary’s even though they aren't really anniversary’s, but doing it just because it makes her happy type love.

Check this, I wanna fall in love with the melody the phone plays when her number is dialed in to her type love, and talk to you until I loose my breathe, she leaves me breathless, but with the expanding of my lungs, inhale all of her back into me. I want a love that makes me change my cell phone calling plan to something that allows me to talk to you longer, cause in all honesty, I want to avoid one of those high cell phone bill type loves. I want a love that makes me regret how small my hands are, I mean the lines on my palm don't give me enough time to love as long as I'd like to type love. Wanna love that makes me stu-stu-stu-stutter just thinking about how strong this love is type love. I want a love that makes me cut off all my hair. Well, maybe not all my hair, maybe like I'll cut the split ends and trim my mustache, but it will still be a symbol of how strong my love is for her.

I kind of feel comfortable now, I'll even be fantasizing about walking out in a green light, just dieing to get hit by a car, just so I could loose my memory, get transported to some third world country just to get treated and some how meet up with you again, so I could fall in love in a different language and see if it still feels the same type love. I want a love that is unexplainable as she is....
