HONEY! Deelishiiness...

Ughh. I’m irritated. I just completed the doodle shown above & I forgot to color in the deck brown!
The program I use to doodle is called graffiti, a facebook application, this app does not have a feature to edit the work once it has been saved. It has happen to me more than a hand full of times before, losing art that is! Reason why I still use graffiti is because once it's completed you can sit back and replay the drawing process in a slow motion picture.
this is so frustrating!!! (kind of funny too...)
:( WwhAAahhhhhh just..the deck…brown

the doodle & honey bees
This is the first time Sophie wears something other than her dress and this time she is wearing a Bee suit!
She has a sweet tooth and honey sure takes care of it!
...Remember to not get greedy Sophie! & leave some honey for these tiny workaholics.

HONEY MAKES THE WORLD A SWEETER PLACE...
I OBSESS OVER ANYTHING W/HONEY!
(honey mustard, honey w/milk, honey turkey/ham, honey yogurt, honey oats, honey w/ honey, honey)

But honey bees are dissapering!!
Over the last three years more than one in three honey bee colonies has died nationwide, posing a serious risk to our natural food supply.
One cause of these losses is an alarming phenomenon called Colony Collapse Disorder, or “CCD.” When a hive experiences CCD, the honey bees mysteriously desert their hive and die. CCD symptoms have been reported by more than thirty-five states across the U.S. and in many other countries.
Researchers do not know exactly what causes CCD, but they believe there may be many factors contributing to the problem, including viruses, mites, chemical exposure and poor nutrition.

I found this information on http://www.helpthehoneybees.com/

HONEY, PLEASE DON'T GO.

The CRAYOLA proposal...

Here is a copy of the e-mail I sent Crayola this morning concerning crayon recycling:

My name is Casey Arauz and the reason for my e-mail is simple - yet it holds huge meaning. I have a proposal on how Crayola can recycle even more than ever! My suggestion also serves as a humanitarian deed to aid underprivileged children in third world countries. Currently, I work at Disney's California Grill at the Contemporary Resort in Magic Kingdom and I can’t help to notice the countless number of Crayola crayons that go to waste after a single use. My plan is the recycling of these crayons in order to supply children abroad. It would mean to not only target Disney restaurants but most (if not all) restaurants that employ Crayola crayons throughout the nation. Businesses that supply their little guests with Crayola’s colorful waxy sticks should have an incentive to motivate recycling (discounts or credits per crayons sent back to Crayola). By placing a small mesh container fby the trash/dishwashing point the restaurant‘s staff would be able to sort them out - it would be as simple as sorting out silverware.
I understand that there are sanitation issues to deal with, that being the reason I won’t simply collect used crayons from local restaurants to bundle & ship overseas. I would like to get in touch and hopefully build a relationship with a Crayola representative to discuss this in depth.

Dreaming with a broken heart by John Meyer

When you're dreaming with a broken heart

Then waking up is the hardest part

You roll outta bed and down on your knees

And for a moment you can hardly breathe

Wondering was she really here?

Is she standing in my room?

No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart

The giving up is the hardest part

She takes you in with her crying eyes

Then all at once you have to say goodbye

Wondering could you stay my love?

Will you wake up by my side?

No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

Now do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hands

Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hands?

Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hands?

Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my , roses in my hands?

Would you get them if i did?

No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart

Then waking up is the hardest part

Sundayness

A mid day cup of coffee.
A semi-FROZEN dragon fruit.
1/4 of my heart is on fire.
A Frank Sinatra playlist.
7 ignored phone calls.
No make-up.

& we share the same planet?

its 2009 throughout the world yet it seems as if time doesn't reach all the corners on earth.
in a location with no knowledge, need or care for cell phones, iPods or internet the 12 hours of daylight are enjoyed in a distinct way. a way unbeknownst to most of us in america where technology is a no longer a want but a need! its hard to seize the idea of a day without electronic entertainment, especially without on-demand music and it's range of genres.

i'm sure their days feel twice as long and that they never complain of how they're "running out" of hours in a day!

this image found on Google i love-hate! the purple sweater is irrelevant to the environment but i love how much it pops, it’s almost a joke of their condition because the color does not fit in with the rest of the earthy tones. the temperature, clearly HOT, renders the woven cloth useless.
i want that sweater!

!!!

Ain't nothing but chicken scratch!
The ups, the downs, the highs, the lows, specially the lows are all part of this improvised chicken boogie entitle "life".
Wiggle your tail feather and shake it off! What ever “it” is, it will soon be just another file on the "mental portfolio". Dwelling on unpleasant ideas holds superior thoughts from floating up.

Open up!

Every time I doodle I can feel my soul exit my body as it takes a couple steps back to watch in awe what my mind emits. I fancy bright neon colors over monochromatic tones as I feel flamboyant ones are a real treat for the eyes. Different tones serve as tools to paint groovy visual rhythms.

ABOUT catastrophunk: I fell hard in love with the made-up name the moment it popped into my subconscious. As I considered a pen name a number of ideas came about, but in the end none came close to what catastrophunk embodied. As an individual I feel I bear a case of EXTREME,(which is part of Webster’s catastrophe definition)either too high or too low, too much or too little, too focused or too distracted. Since I already do make an effort to locate a balance in my daily ADHD (undiagnosed) routine I figured I could embrace my extremist nature with this name. Because I am a free-spirited soul I consider myself to be phunk! figures why neatdisaster was its runner-up.
My loonie schedule gets between me & doodling a great deal. I ADORE TO DOODLE and if it were up to me I would doodle myself away. That said it’s no surprise that while in school it becomes dangerously tempting to ditch my homework for some scribbles, which I do confess it does happens more than it ought to.

Aaaaaahhh.... break!

summer schools is over...

Lose your dreams & you could loose your mind

From the time I became cutaneous (or skin tissue) the Earth has fully rotated the sun 22 times. On the 19th round I met my fortune teller who spoke a language that only I understood. Silly to admit that I believe in a spiritual world, but truth be told and I’m not the only one who believes this. There’s more to the gravity of the known universe, more to it’s “floating” self and definitely more than the human EGO. My medium’s fascination was made definite as she recognized ME for who I understand myself, a conscious dreamer.

I more than often wonder:
Where can I go if I don't want to BE?
How long must I stay in this physical form?
Why wait for the future and where is the past…

The I (ME) is: The voice that is heard in silence without speaking; an echo of will.

"I am an adrenaline junkie"

I've got the world on a string by Frank Sinatra

Merry month of May, sunny skies of blue,
clouds have rolled away and the sun peeps through
may express happiness.
Joy may define in a thousand ways,
but a case like mine needs a "special phrase"
to reveal how I feel
I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow
got the string around my finger
what a world, what a life, I'm in love!
I've got a song that I sing,
I can make the rain go
anytime I move my finger, lucky me
can't you see, I'm in love.
Life is a beautiful thing
as long as I hold the string.
I'd be a silly so and so,
if I should ever let go
I've got the world on a string sittin' on a rainbow
got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love!
I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow
got the string around my finger
what a world, what a life, I'm in love!
I've got a song that I sing,I can make the rain go
anytime I move my finger, lucky me
can't you see, I'm in love.


Funny how I learnt about this song after I had already completed this doodle! REALLY I SWEAR!
