friday night was a fun night with two of my favorite boys in South Africa. ryan performed at a function in Table View. brianie came along for moral support. we had fun watching all the people. the other musicians were like hard rock christian music. then the middle part was dj eazy
and ryan. one guy was breakdancing. other than that, it was random to watch all these souful-looking people so rigid when the dj came on.
i, however, enjoyed it. i have a fascination with dj's. it's completely an art and i respect them greatly. i had a friend in college who was a dj and i used to watch him for hours as he would practice at home. i got lost in his hands scratching, his beatmatching, and his brain thinking what song to fade into next.
i think the thing that draws me to dj-ing is the way that they look like they TOTALLY know what is going on, while the rest of us either don't really invest in their talent but only reap the benefits of it, OR we (me) stand there in awe, drueling on the turntables, wishing to be that cool.
i had this moment where i committed heart and soul to becoming a really good female dj. but i'm poor and really uncoordinated so i don't think i could maintain such a hobby. but my heart is in it, my brothers. my heart is in it!
here's some photos for you. the last one is my dedication to all you beck fans who appreciate the artwork on my elbows...
Bottles and cans just clap your hands just clap your hands!!!

you could still become a cool girl dj... seriously. i saw the alleged "best female dj in the UK" (her name is dj storm) and the "best female dj in Thailand" (i think hers is like dj picky but i forget)... you could do it :) but what would your dj name be if you could be one? i also think anything on the table of elements seems to work...
Ash's dj name is no doubt DJ NARC! She will burn up the decks until everyone falls asleep on the dance floor from the intense dance session!! For rizzle my nizzle!! I hear that Brown's management is already in discussions with DJ NARC, for some sort of a long term relationship. Brown and DJ NARC would make a great team!! But that is just a little old oppion of little old me...
