    Jamie Minor

    Sup,

    So yesterday reality hit me in a way that left me in a reflective state of mind. Ive never been one to shy away from sharing with yall and i wont start now. I met a girl once early last year who became a friend of mines by the name of Jamie Minor, she had this huge smile on her face. Of course she had more fashion sense than i did:) i mean in all honesty thats never hard to do, im nowhere near the word fashion.

    She was a girl of adventure and i mean that in every sense of the word, she would always send me facebook inbox messages and text to do random stuff. Im a guy who loves doin random stuff, the word random should be my middle name. Jamie passed away weeks ago and i jus found out on Sunday. I say that to say this, Kanye put in words of truth “People never get the flowers while they can still smell em”. Speaks truth, life really is too short to be spiteful, hate, talk bad about people or jus not 100 hundred percent forgiving people. Love the ones you Love and find it hard to love, love sees through good and bad and it will benefit you in the end.

    Im not perfect by anny means and their are plenty of things in my life i wish i could turn the hands of time on. I pray every single day (I mean that) that god will work on me whole heartedly. I miss Jamie alot and i really am gonna start appreciating the folk who love me and are against me alot more. I dont like to see peolpe leave Gods Green Earth.Put aside the material things Its a blessing to be here no matter how you look at it.

    Rest In Peace Jamie..I miss you

    As most of you know, #IMATS was this weekend in Pasadena. The sold out show was packed and crazy from start to end! There were so many great booths and fun classes to watch.

    Look at these super cool temporary lip tattoos from Violent Lips

    A bunch of booths had really cool special effect makeup and the student competition was so fun to watch. They’re so talented!

    Hope all is well in your part of the world :). Soooo the other day i did something very adventurous that i have never done, what was it you say??? PADDLE BOARDING!!! As weird as it may sound to you and myself lol, its alot of fun. www.supatx.com is where you can find the best paddle boards here in Austin. I actually didnt know this until JUST now but they offer paddle boarding classes 5 times a week 🙂 how crazy is that?

    This may look easy, but i busted my arse like 5 times before catching on, but once you get it, you will be screaming “HOLLABACK!” because no one will be able to catch up to you :).

    Benefits from purchasing a paddle board from SUP ATX

    1) You will cherish your paddle board fooorrrrever because they dont come cheap!

    2) You can paddle board where ever and whenever you want too 🙂

    3)You will get ripped! Look at the guy in the picture above.

    4) Im sure there more than just 4 benefits to having a SUP ATX paddle board, but its all i could think of 🙂
