A NEW BEGINNING

so guys just got back home from school now you may be wondering what the hell is that thing right here basically it's my mic i mean i used to use this thing all the time um i don't really understand why i don't anymore um the mic on the sony a7 itself is pretty good but obviously a external mic will always be better um so we're gonna test it out for a little see if it's actually worth you know lugging this thing on top i'm not sure if you guys can tell let's how can i make

this easier there is if you can't tell basically the thing broke off uh the plastic attachment fell off uh so i had to put a like some black tape and kind of diy it it's pretty crappy but it'll do so i had to do that for this now i'm gonna have to do it for another piece of my equipment basically my beats um they're literally just about to break and there are a 300 pound pair of headphones and i really don't want to buy a new one so we're going to try and diy it before

it like just completely snaps off and breaks so guys being as gentle as possible here's sort of what it's looking like it's just crap okay uh it's very very flimsy like you see even i pointed that way and it's just lost all its rigidness and rigidity i don't know if that's a word but you get my point like it's seriously this close about the breaking so we're going to try and tape this up all right guys so i would say that is a pretty clean job so what i went ahead and did was used this

and i okay if you focus yeah basically when i had just taped it around as i said it's only actually the right one which is affected but i thought i would do it on the left side as well so now at least it looks like i have the beats commando edition beats blue commando edition um rather than some shitty torn up you know um refurbished model yeah honestly i'm pretty happy with that guys like i'm once again it's hard to convey with one hand free but this doesn't look like it's gonna move so i can't

twist it and fold it but at least it won't break and at least i don't have to buy a new pair happy with that i just got off the phone with the owner of the club that i run their social media for i do the content curation and then the distribution and jesus christ guys in the past year what i've learned about business marketing branding it's crazy i mean just even talking to him and realizing you know how i'm screwing up in the protocol in terms of actually showing you know the progress because we're making

really good progress i'm really happy with the way we're going and the content is amazing and then uh the growth is coming along with that um through you know search engine optimization and actually engaging with the community but um you know i'm not showing him that and you know just jumping off that call that's something i realized but yeah seriously the education i'm getting is incredible and i'm not trying to be rude at all when i say this but this sort of real world education compared to what you get in a classroom there's no comparison

frank ocean's new album very very good so i just got home from school and i got a text from ted basically telling me about the post malone concert um and then he also told me about the schoolboy q which is on the same week and a couple of my other friends were telling me about schoolboy so basically i went ahead and booked the schoolboy q tickets right now um and i will go ahead and book the post malone tickets probably tomorrow once they go live they go live at nine o'clock tomorrow so i'll pick them

up they're only like 17 pounds super cheap uh nine o'clock tomorrow hopefully i'll be able to pick them up so guys one thing i've always been super bad at is eating clean now i know you might not imagine it considering my physique i'm extremely extremely lean but the way i've always pissed it to myself is my caloric output is so high just my basal metabolic rate is so great that you know the input the amount of food that i eat has to be even greater for me to grow so you know i'll go to mcdonald's

i'll go to subway i'll have three reese's cup like three packets of reese's cups in one sitting which is about by the way that's like 900 calories um and the way i always pitch it to myself is it's fine it's it's for your growth it's for your physical growth but you know let's think mentally so if you guys have ever written a book called the ultramine solution basically in that book it talks about the effect of food on your brain and i am nowhere near as creative as i can be as disciplined as i can

be um as happy as i can be because the food i'm eating just isn't on point so what i've gone ahead and done is i've made a plan i have off campus five times a week um so four times a week i am bringing in food myself because if i go off campus my options are pretty manager mcdonald's subway even if i try to uber eats or delivery to my school you know something like the good life eatery that's like 15 pounds so a place like the good life eatery the micronutrients the nutritional content is

really good but i can't pay 15 pounds for that maybe not now maybe who knows in a year i'll be uh i'll be doing that every day but at this point that's not something i can afford so i've gone ahead and made a plan um every meal is roughly a thousand calories good high quality calories good glycemic index which means i won't crash in the same way that you get after a subway or mcdonald's you know i just want to have way more mental clarity and the reason i'm doing this is basically i'm making i'm

building a lot more systems in my life and putting a lot more organization into my life because i have so much stress i have so many projects i have so much work that like if i went ahead and did what normal people did do in terms of their food in terms of their sleep in terms of you know their self-talk in terms of what they tolerate i couldn't have the things i have you know if i tolerated [ __ ] from other people or more importantly for myself the same way that other people do i

couldn't have the ambition the drive or have the connections or have the projects and opportunities that come my way that i do so you know it kind of sucks you know honestly i would rather just go out with my friends not have to worry about prepping meals but it's just something that comes with it yeah putting a lot more thought in systems in place uh just part of the life i've chosen to live so guys next order of business is lewis who's probably he's been on the vlog a couple times he told me about a

couple abandoned construction sites so we are off to go check that out apparently there's like three buildings in a row so if you can't get into one then we'll try the other two but um just you hope this works out when i find new construction sites new derelict buildings i always get so so excited so guys we're at the location um basically we found it's like a super big building we found a way in through basically like just outside of the river uh went there there are it's a really really cool location it's super super

high up um but there are workers there right now it's a thursday at like six o'clock so at least now i know this place i'll definitely be back here at a more let's say discrete time and uh i'll do a shoot then but for now we're we're at a cool location anyways so we'll go and we'll find another place to take some photos shame about this place though i'm literally under railroad tracks and a train just went above me right now and there's a helicopter flying above so interesting so guys i'm really liking this location

basically you can climb up from there up to there and you are basically under a bridge which is super cool um yeah i don't know you find little interesting spots wherever you go really good shoot so far still searching still looking for cool spots it's getting quite dark out i know there are some cool locations down there quite modern it is getting quite dark out but with the sony a7 mark ii you can blast the iso quite high up put the shutter speed real low and so i got some pretty pretty cool so i ended

up finding two skateboarders and we ended up doing a little shoot uh back there and then at this other cool little like skating area so i will cue the edit which i'm gonna be posting on my new instagram which i'm gonna talk about a bit later but yeah i'll post the edit in three two one they're looking for a check so guys that will conclude this vlog um once again very very scattered i think it ran between like three four days it has been so hard to organize everything that is going on my life recently

there is as i said just so much going on so many new projects so much actual work that i'm contracted under so it's not like i can just get lazy and sleep but right now literally before i did this i spent an hour and a half completely building a new model looking at how the smartest people in the world organize their day organize their week and i found a model that works for me that i really like so i will show you guys that in the next episode but to conclude i just want to say

that um what you saw the skateboard edit that you saw within this that was for my new instagram and basically that instagram is for my photography and videography services so um you know i've always been able to monetize my passion and once i see a sort of interest in something i go with it because having passion for something is the greatest blessing you could ever have and that's sort of what happened with videography and photography i took a liking to it very very quickly and um there have been a lot of cool opportunities that have

opened up since and i get people messaging me now emailing emailing me or jamming me or through my snapchat and now i'm getting paid to do video shoots and photo shoots and stuff like that which is super super cool so i thought i would make it professional and have my own instagram for it and then i might open up a website soon but i'm gonna leave my new yeah let's do it right here i'm gonna leave my new instagram right there seriously guys please go check it out i got a lot of comments saying that
