My Magazine Subscriptions

It was just last year I got back into paying for magazine subscription as I did before years ago when I use to have magazine subscription with Vibe Magazine, The Source Magazine and XXL Magazine.  I was really into Hip Hop and loved the articles and discovering new artists and the rating and photos of artists if they made the spread or so.

So since September last year I subscribed to two of my favorite magazine, (well only because because I got some sweet deal on them thanks to Amazon.com) which are Cosmopolitan Magazine and Complex Magazine.  If there are any magazines I would read and just love the articles and the funny thinks they publish are those magazines.  Those magazines actually spark some creativity energy my way in which helps me on creating content for my blog and my youtube channel.  So it’s exciting to see when they come in the mail.

As of Sunday March 6, 2011, I added couple new subscription to my arsenal to be delivered to my home, (thanks again to Amazon.com special offers) are Popular Photography Magazine and American Photo Magazine.  I usually go to Barnes and Noble and flip through magazine, but I could never get it too the point I can bring it home and test out my skills with my DSLR on creating great photos as in these magazines.  But since they are coming to my house now, I will get the prime opportunity to flip through each page.

So you wanted to know the deals I got for each magazine?

Cosmopolitan = $10 for 1 year subscription (12 issues) – Pretty good deal.
Complex = $10 for 2 years subscription (12 issues/bi-monthly) – Nice enough deal, did I mention I love Marc Ecko Clothing?
Popular Photography = $5 for 1 year subscription (12 issues) – As a photographer this is an awesome deal.
American Photo = $5 for 1 year subscription (6 issues/bi-monthly) –  Nice enough deal.

Do you have any magazine subscriptions?  Do you catch the deals out there or pay regular prices?

This Is Life, So Live It

Life is present, not future.  We can plan from tomorrow, but tomorrow may not come.  But we can still live life and appreciate all our blessings and achievements.  When you wake up in the morning, say to yourself “This is Life“, when you get a promotion at work you deserved say to yourself “This is Life“.  We all have something to live for and it may take a while to realize it, but that’s our goal in life to find out what is our mission.  So through all our struggles and wins, (#winning) we must know that “This is Life“.  You can make life what you want it, but you have to follow a route that leads there and not try doing something that can affect this goal.

I just wanted to take the time to tell everyone that Life is Now, and what we go through no matter good or bad, that “This Is Life” so live it.

What do you live for in life?  Are you going through rough patches or smooth sailing?

I am a Flirt

The Flirtation
Image via Wikipedia

Ever since I was a young guy back in the days of Jamaica, I have been a flirt.  I love the ladies.  It’s funny because I think I picked up this charming charisma from listening to too much Beenie Man songs.  I think that’s why he is my favorite artist of all times.  Beenie Man had so many songs about girls (Gal Dem Suga, Nuff Gal, Girls Dem Way, Old Dog, Doctor etc…), and how he is ladies man and I just ran with it.  I use to be quite shy, but now I flirt all the time.  I mean I do know how manage it and if I was in a relationship that part does get shut down, but it’s like a natural behavior of mines.  It’s the way I talk and approach females that makes it so cool.  I am quite smooth too.  Even on the phone, I am awesome when I want to be.  I could just know that the girl on the other line is blushing and having a smile on her face.  I usually don’t flirt to try to seduce a girl or try to go out with her, but to make her feel great and appreciated, and also to know there are very nice guys out there.  So to all the lovely and sexy ladies in the world, when you meet me, I might flirt with you, and trust me you are going to like it.

Do you flirt with others?  Are you able to not give in to someone’s flirting?  Do you think flirting with others is cheating if with someone else?
