QUESTION:



Does anyone know any charitable organizations here in BC that are involved in the arts/design/music area that do work with youths from troubled lifestyles?! Working on a charity event with my school and looking for a organization here to do work with. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx J

SUNday Pre-Production.....

Up at 6 am and did a 5K run on the treadmill to let go of any anxiety felt from last night. Made a healthy breakfast afterwards to fuel the system and got ready to head out the door. On my way to a team meeting I noticed a large crowd on Granville street and noticed a huge sign saying 'White Members Only' I was like no way effin way as I was approaching the scene. Expecting a spectacle of a sorts, with cops barricading the streets or something I noticed another sign on the other street saying 'Purple Members Only' just then I realized this was some sorta event going on. Made sense cause there was all sorts of folks from different backgrounds interacting with each other. Find out it was the annual Vancouver Sun Run, soo many people lined up for 5 blocks down the street...It was super cool to see so many different people involved and engaged on a SUNday morning. Definitely some good positive energy flowing on the streets. So cutting through the crowd to continue my way, all the meanwhile listening to the anticipation of the people as they was gettin ready to start the course. I was thinking to myself man it would suck choda if midway I got trampled crossing the road lol. Made it.

Made some progress with today's antics, knowing that the team dynamics is strong these days. Looking out for each other to magnifying each other's strengths and developing them for the BIG picture at stake whatever the project is. I'm all about that team spirit, straying off the competitive nature that we are so use to by society's standards. Learning to look at yourself to self improve in all aspects, bringing you to a level where you will connect with others like minded. Gravitating towards your dreams, opening up doors/opportunities.....Your divinity. Let go of any expectations and use that energy to appreciate everything/everyone around you. See what happens next.....You'll thank me later. Word.

Friday living in the YVR...

To whom it may concern,

Nothing like peeling your socks off after a full day of work, reloaded on the groceries and gettin ready for the weekend. The weather was nice out today, so being in the sun was definitely a bonus...Gonna have a good summer for sure. 

Found out some good news today from the campus coordinator, super stoked for the coming school terms Yess...Looking like everyone's on par with work and goals so it's pretty awesome that everybody is working on the same path. I feel blessed to be around sooo much talent it fuels me to be better than who I was. I believe teamwork is the answer to building dreams. Staying grateful for everything that is in play, no matter what...Everything happens for a reason.

Meanwhile I'm laying in bed lounging plotting out my evening, setting mini goals for the next 3 days then weekly projections, always with the big picture playing in the back of my mind. Motivation is important to staying focused. So I stay around people who uplift me and influences that inspire me to do things. Ain't nobody got time to waste these days especially when u got a lot of things to look forward to. Word. Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable weekend...I know I will. HA! 

Cheers J
