The Return..!?!
[Untouched and Unedited From When I Drafted It]
TO BE CONTINUED..!!!?!?!
Well it seems like a long long time since i've posted a blog..
You know what I didn't feel like informing you guys all about my life, my thoughts, my rants, what ever you want to call it.
But you know what..!!
As per request from certain fans (Mo you are my motivation for this blog) after the Yeezy 2 line up @ 1948..!! I've returned..!! Miss me? I doubt it.. Need me.. DEFINITELY hahahaha....
It seems like once again the sneaker community has brought me back to THIS SPACE hahaha....
Everyone uses that rubbish saying, WATCH THIS SPACE..!?1 I think i've dropped it a few times in my blog... but you know what it's not fucking space any more. (Specially with all this irrelevant text sprawled across it)
Alright well as usual all my titles aren't straight forward. It's simple it's the return of me on my blog... I'll try to post more regularly...
It's actually the return of the Nike x Kanye West Collab, AIR YEEZY 2..!! I know you've all seen me shitting on people with my 3 pairs of Yeezy 1's.. Well I kid you not i've also pulled out the YEEZY 2, literally been pulled out (of a raffle)..
If you're reading this your a fucking sneaker head or a wannabe sneaker head. So i'm not going to bore you with all the details and nitty gritty shit.
Except the fact, Footpatrol printed 3,000 entry forms and all of them were filled in.
40+ pairs of Grey's and 25 pairs of Blacks.. I got picked to purchase them... Luck?? Fate?? Destiny?? Inside Job?? (Haters going to hate) TO ME KARMA..!!
Let me be frank with you, I'm now working full time so i'm no longer an unemployed 20 something year old, Q-ing, sleeping on streets for pairs of kicks... How I used to afford all this shit I don't understand. I'm working full time and I can barely survive the month, times are hard and we can DROP £210 on a pair of POORLY made Kicks..
But you know what fuck you, don't judge me.. You spend all your money on alcohol, drugs, women, (Insert Sin here)...
[These Bracket are for the new kids who joined the sneaker game within the last year or two, Who buy a pair of Jordans because their friends are wearing it, or because u've found Size? or you've suddenly discovered Footpatrol, 1948, House of Hoops, Ebay.. (or where ever kids get their shit from now a days.) Let me thank you little shits who've just joined the sneaker collecting scene.. because you've ruined it.!! I had pairs of Jordans I couldn't unbox because they meant so much to me. *COUGH* B/RED 3's.. My favourite shoe of all time and probably one of the best colourways. Last year JB (Jordan Brand for you fucking n00bs) GR (General Release) the fucking B/RED 3's and now every kid with access to their dad or mothers purse or wallet has one on. (FUCK ME THEY ARE EXPENSIVE NOW) £130 for these new ugly ass SON OF MARS..!! What has the game become..!!]
Class is in session..! *ATTENTION*
Let me inform you about Jordans to me.. The guys before my time.. I fully respect you and I have no right in dropping the wrong knowledge but i'm saying it how it's evolved during my time.
When I first started buying Jordans, they were sold in JD Sports.. JD FUCKING SPORTS ON THE SALE RACK... £30 for Fire Red 3's.. YEAH YOU HEARD ME... (I think they were my first pair of Jordans) Yes I got the retro releases and not the OG's but I paid with my own money I earned.
Well I may have grew up in the Jordan era, but I didn't watch him as a kid.. I appreciated his greatness when I was old enough to fully understand Space Jam was an Amazing film haha.. I did my research and my homework and now I understand the history behind the shoes and everything else behind it. As for the fucking yeezy's, KANYE IS my favourite artist. Some say he is a dick, I agree. Most chicks hate the guy because he is arrogant, fair play. But everything he touches turns to gold.. ?!? Illuminati (Thats another blog) Hate all you want he is an idol to some and people want these shoes for a reason.
TO BE CONTINUED..!?!
(I've had enough of reading this and i'm guessing so have you.. )
Ingratitude..!?!

Atelier
Well It’s been a while guys, and i’ve missed this. Can’t say I am going to be constantly on this but i’ll at least ‘try’. This blog is going to be about that... Trying, Changing and Generally not giving up. All my blogs I pick smart titles, or a title that aims to cover the Whole post in one.
Atelier, means Workshop in French. Why this title? Well an atelier consists of an artist who is training their students in fine art. I would like to see you take something away from this post and maybe fine tune yourself to be a better man or woman.
You want some juicy gossip about my life, well you know your reading the wrong blog haha. I don’t need to drop much, more cops, more kicks, new job. If you know me you’ll be up-to-date if not then u’ve not missed much. If you want to keep up follow me on twitter or add me on Facebook.
Alrite back on topic for you eager mo-fo’s who only read my blog to feel better about yourselves. That's the mentality u need in life, to be happy to stay strong and strive for happiness!
They say wisdom comes with age but I beg to differ it isn't the age it is the experience! Maybe experience comes with age but then again I don't think so either! It is the willingness to try and learn. Everyday is a lesson where it be at work, at home or at school! There is a lesson to be learnt, a mistake to be made, an experience to be lived!
Well during the draft of this blog Obama was re-elected into the white house. His previous campaign stood for hope and change and you know what I think change is the mildest form of trying!! Give it a go change you routine, change your habits it might not suit you but at least u've tried!
You know what I can't finish this post off because then I'd be a hypocrite! I'm still trying myself so I'm going to leave it at that.......

The Real World..!?!
I just wanted to give you guys a little insight of what I think... Some of you will agree some of you will disagree... A lot of this is bullshit and i've made up haha but it doesn't stop your reading...
Anyways you all know the saying The Rich Get Richer and the poor get poorer....
If you've ever got the time sit down and have a little think... look around at those close to you... They are usually in the same financial situation as you, or more or less the same education background...
Think of this as your herd, we are all animals just slightly intelligent and have the ability to speak. Within your herd there will be some who are slightly stronger/fitter/smarter than the others.. These would be seen as the dominant figures, the leaders.
The rest will look at this person as a sort of idol, leader by example. Look at them for approval, to be accepted as this greater collect.
Now think about the rich, the celebs, footballers and anyone else you can think of. They have their own "herds" the status, the money and everything else with it is kept within their herds. Even from a young age this starts, think about the school you went to, if you couldn't perform you was rejected from that "herd" or social group, till you found one where everyone was similar. Breaking out of these social stereotype/groups are hard. I mean i've seen this growing up, going to average schools... You'll have more creative people than academics. People who enjoy "spitting lyrics" and "bustin moves" (Wow I sound old). Compared to other schools which probably talk about books they've read. Upcoming exams or what not. (I wouldn't know I never reached this level haha)
Anyways to keep this short, the rich will pass on their wealth to their children. To become wealthy you have to have money work for you, not work for money. By having the ability to pass on money which can duplicate itself in assets, you'll never become poor.
Man i'm just hating... not in a dickhead way.. Just hating it's harder for people like us to break out of these social stereotypes bestowed upon us.
