I was possessed last night. I think, anyway. I was staring at my wall, minding my own when I was driving on a freeway, exiting. In the middle of the exit was a person on the road, looking as if they had been hit. I got out to investigate. They were moving, writhing in agony, but unresponsive to my comments. Weird, I am still awake looking at my wall too. A little kid watching us points out that the person wasn’t hit, he/she fell. I look around and see more people around and more falling from the sky. I was probably in the beginnings of that sleep paralysis cause after the little “dream” left, I couldn’t move at all, and my head felt like it was gonna explode. Literally felt like my brain was put into my skull backwards and was not fitting anymore, then it slowly rotated from the front to the back and all the fiery hate and rage (that wasn’t mine, so i could not understand) dissipated. Then I had to pee.

Did I mention that dudes were falling down on the “dancefloor” and jumping off chairs on Saturday? Oh, I did?
Anyway, no matter. Sometimes you remember at the exact same time why you love and hate to DJ.
I dont think I mentioned that an older woman, obvious former sorority member came up to me and said “There are lots of fathers with their daughters in here right now. Can you play something they can relate to? I know it’s hard, but something like “Play That Funky Music Whiteboy?”
Nod.
“Thanks.”
Yuck, DJing so that drunken fathers may dance with their daughter’s drunken and scantily clad friends? No thank you. It was so uncomfortable for a moment there I wanted to die. Then a bunch of gay dudes and their friends came in and all was right in the world. Then the REALLY drunk girls and the athletes trying to take them home. Then the nice respectful guys who were bringing their girlfriends out. The mood was definitely set by the homo contingency though. They successfully removed the dad-vibe.
Oh, and I think she was there. Ok, no. But someone not unlike her was.
Also, not unlike Golden Bull, there was a tall woman who rolled through wearing something that would not be out of place in a stripping emporium. She just walked in, tore the place up by dancing to like, one song, and rolled out. Just to show people up, I guess.
(By the way, I had a dream that there was a mean purple striped weasel that attacked my apartment. I threw it off the balcony.)
I have a midterm today. The last midterm of my undergrad career. Watch me cry.

Last night all I dreamt about was hunting for a certain pair of shoes. Randomness abounded: They were 215 dollars at Huf. I call 510 from Huf, they are 40 dollars. 510 tells me I should hit up Supreme LA. But no, Im in northern california and Ill stop by there. Of course telegraph ave. in berkeley becomes a crazy steep hill and my attempts are thwarted. Stupid shit, I dont even want them.
Yo, the Turntable Lab blog is pretty wack, but this is really ill.

…is what I drive. Usually, I am not mad at it. Mobile gigs require a meaty automobile and the mystery machine/green goblin does a bang up job…and for 13 years old, she still runs real nice, taking crazy San Francisco hills without protest. Just wanted to give her a shout out.
Anyway, so I had this dream (obviously informed by a day spent driving around the city and almost getting into a bunch of accidents) on Saturday. If youve driven in the bay, you know that the bridge situation is on some nightmare status even when youre dumb awake, but in my dream that ish was taken to a whole other level.
Basically:

We get on the bridge, i think im good. the damn thing takes us to central california and we are off roading in the 93 aerostar.
Then:

I gotta drive up this crazy hill in the 93 turqouise aerostizzy. Pretty much vertical. Really extreme.

Wednesday in effect. Ready to teach the masses how to DJ and talk shit about benign neglect..Let’s DO this.
I gotta mention that I am wasting words here that should be going toward my TFA application. I know I am not ready to do this, (assuming I am selected..which I won’t be) but I wanted to apply anyway. Not only has college and my major (yeah, you do learn stuff in ethnic studies) given me some (mostly useless) theoretical background and some analytic paradigms to critically look at educational inequity and the essential fucked-upness of western intellectual frameworks, I actually lived and ultimately benefitted from racism in public school systems. First of all, having a father who teaches at a underfunded rural school in Hawaii teaches you a lot about educational resources. 2nd, when I moved to California, the first school I attended racialized me as Latino. I was just some new Mexican kid to them. The second school, god bless em, saw that little spark of an asian overachiever in me and decided that I needed to be in a gifted and talented program. Say what you will about elementary school: a lot of what happens there follows you through the rest of your life and really shapes life chances. (of course, I know a money grip of people that proved the asses at their elementary schools wrong and got here, but they are by and large exceptions that prove some rule). The obsession with standardized performance obviously favors certain groups, that much is well known. With bullshit like No Child Left Behind, its all magnified 1000 per cent. I guess I still have that ridic notion that at some point, helping at least one kid is a first step in actualizing and living my own ideals. Also, if i want to affect policy in some way, I better know what the fuck I am talking about, and what better way than to suffer through two years at a horrible school? Yes, i am 20 years old, fresh to the world, ready to graduate. I dont fully support myself yet and it is easy for me to “liberal” cause i dont pay taxes (or something….but actually, isnt it pretty damn expensive living in a really rightwing religious conservative country right now?). Obviously someone like Mr. Babylon has a better notion of what it is really like, but i figure i might as well jump into this while im naive enough.By the way, Im trying to get the teaching gig in New York, Philadelphia…or Las Vegas (HUUUUGE population of HUUUUGE Pacific Islanders..no racismo)
I hate stupid “im better than you” phrases..but “a lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine” is really applicable to me…all the damn time. PEOPLE OF THE WORLD, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER! Taurus/Ox analretentiveness is not necessarily a bad thing.
REMINDER: PARTYARTYRTYTYY at our place this Friday to celebrate my main dude’s visit as well as David-the-heartthrob’s 22nd birthday. SCHOLARRRR!
I had a really creepy awful dream that consisted of something I worked really hard on being destroyed as well as probably the most gruesome violent imagery ever in a dream. Suffice to say there were body parts and severed heads every with bloody stumps spewing blood all over the scene. It was horrible and ended up being an art project…I was really relieved when I found out that the bodies were not real. Supposedly the artists’ idea was that Islamic terrorists rounded up a whole town lined them up to be executed, then drove a cable car over them. YO THAT SHIT WAS SCARY.

I had a dream last night where I yelled, in all seriousness:
“I’M THE NORM CHOW OF THIS DJ SHIT, SON!”
*Aside from being just a weird thing to be of the DJ world, I should remind people that this is also saying “I AM MY MOM’S 8TH GRADE HOMEROOM AND TYPING TEACHER OF THIS DJ SHIT, SON!” or “I AM THE GUY WHO MY DAD REPLACED AS FOOTBALL COACH AT WAIALUA HIGH SCHOOL OF THIS DJ SHIT, SON!”
(my fam has quite the Norm Chow connection)
go norm chow. (by the way: we all know USC would have won if he was still there.)

Maybe I’ll explain later, but my dream consisted of Hugo Chavez, Pharrell, the world cup, Supreme, alife, Colin Powell, Zombie pirates and NBC. Yell.
