Yeah Baby! This is my second week without smoking a flipping cigarette.

It has been damn difficult but I have managed to resist this devilish temptation with lots of water, candies and holding a non-lighted cigarette in my hand when in company of my extra-hardcore-smoky friends.

Good things to notice are: I get less tired when climbing stairs or doing my routines at the gym and feeling pleased at night when taking off my clothes (they no longer smell like an ashtray). On the other hand, I haven’t saved too much money with this initiative, after two weeks of going cold turkey I can barely afford a Big Mac at the nearest McDo or a glass of wine for my next date. But let’s keep it clear, quit smoking worths trying, specially considering your consumption note is going to arrive 20 or 30 years after your first cigarette and it’s going to come as a medical oxygen tank or as a couple of racking weeks attached to a medical ventilator before dying.

iPhone’s application Quitter has been helping me to track my progress.

What do I want to say?

I believe this is the most important question to ask before taking a photograph. It might look pretty simple but if you can answer this, it’s going to be a lot easier to transmit a message without getting lost in sole technique.

This same question made me delete my entire online album and start  it from scratch, I felt like a lot of images in there weren’t telling something, like a purposeless exhibition of technique. So, I decided to re-organize, re-select and re-process each photograph. It took some time but it’s ready now and I’m very happy with the results. :)

Let me show you the last two years of my life documented with CCD sensors, visit my online photo album.

Ageing is a universal, biological process that begins from the moment we are born.

It doesn’t matter I just reached my early twenties, I still feel something weird when I think “how old I am?”. It doesn’t matter how old are you, we are all a little stressed about ageing.

Regarding this, the World Health Organization along with the United Nations University Media Center have done an e-case study and documentary about ageing in Japan, a rich and technologically advanced society with over 30 000 centenarians. 

The documentary is called “The Wisdom Years” and features some music of mine. So, go there and watch it!

Yeah! It’s been a year since I presented my first EP, “An Upcoming Summer“, through Cyan Recs Netlabel, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do but it’s time for something new.

Let me introduce you my brand new EP entitled “Living Undercover”.
