Watch "Ape Regime - Andaman EP" on YouTube
This video has been shot by my buddy Pietro on his trip to Cali two years back and the tune is entitled after the Andaman sea after his trip to Thailand. It is a nice little video timelapse and you can find more music on the 45Drakes Records Bandcamp page here:

✨📓Story time📓✨
Featuring @anobodyinabog
Just a little snippet based off a conversation with me and friend talking about our plans for Spring Break. I had asked for a list of her favorite snacks because ✨RoAdTrIp BaBy✨ and she had mentioned Goldfish.
I looked at her, and she looked at me, and I looked at her, and I could see the moment of realization in her horror filled eyes.
And I, ever true to my Jayus nature, without mercy, looked up with a grin and said without hesitation, “ Yo girl is your name Goldfish? Cuz you’re the snack that smiles back.” 😏😉👉🏼👉🏼
Needless to say the conversation ended shortly thereafter. She started to walk out 😆
I took this picture when my parents and I were driving home from Winnipeg for a ”vacation”
Writing Prompt #3
‘You have 10 days to live.’
Mortality is a dark subject to dwell on.
We don’t often think about what happens when we die, after it, about the death itself. Often times, we go through our daily lives without even being reminded that we are such fragile things.
I lived that kind of life; a life where I went by the days with a kind of reckless, careless freedom.
Perhaps you could call me ignorant, or oblivious. All living creatures die, but with the way I had lived you would’ve guessed I was chasing death.
I wasn’t. I had no intention of dying. I wanted to live. To live without regret, to look back and to say ‘I’m happy with the way I lived’.
That sentence ran through my head when I learned I had 10 days to live. A measly 10 days - barely more than a week - was all that my goodwill had earned.
Yet amidst the raging thoughts one would usually experience when faced with their own mortality, there was one clear sentence. Found beneath the piles of fear, of anger, of ‘why me?’, there it was, clear as day.
‘I’m happy with the way I lived.’
And I was.
Truly, genuinely happy.
After I realised it, it was easier for me to accept my fate. At least, as easy as it can be.
Those around me took longer; longer nights spent holding them while they cried, longer hours spent pounding away at locked doors because I cannot stand not seeing them again before I left.
I didn’t even tell most people. Those who had been with me for years and years, defended me from all sorts of monsters, and yet I kept this secret from them.
I wished I had enough time to tell them, to be able to tell them and be there to reassure them. But I barely had time to comfort the ones closest to me, and to convince them to accompany me on my plan.
My last journey.
I only had a few days left, after spending them on clearing all my extra affairs. It was then that I realised I had been lucky, in a sick and twisted way.
At the very least, I knew enough to plan for it.
After all affairs had been settled, we packed our bags into our car and went on a road trip. We called out buildings, sighs, horses, cows, fields, mountains, lakes, parks, people. We stopped and ate at the most questionable diner I had ever stepped into - and that was truly saying something, as I’d walked into multiple questionable diners.
We traveled and slept and talked. After a while on the road, I’d noticed that the others had began to relax slightly, to enjoy this final journey I’d planned, to live in the moment with someone without many moments left.
I was glad they did. It made the journey easier for me.
After all that traveling, we’d finally arrive at our destination.
A long bridge, suspended high above a river valley. From the centre, a single piece of cord.
It had been unanimous that I were to go first. The man in charge fixed a harness around my torso, gave the cord a few more experimental tugs, then nodded an affirmative in my direction.
I took in a deep breath, then I jumped.
After it, my friends had applauded me on my bravery. They called me reckless, as always. I smiled cheekily in return, as I’ve always done.
And then we went home.
Bungee jumping had been the last thing on my bucket list. My last hurrah to the life I’d lived before I learned the news.
I was happy, but oh I wished I’d lived longer. Of course I would. I had plans that went on for years, dreams that plummeted like a deflated balloon.
But I dealt with the hand I was given, and while it was truly a shit hand, I was satisfied enough.
9 and 3/4 days after the news, I climbed to the roof of my apartment. The stars still peeked out beneath the ever-brightening sunrise sky, and I had wanted to see them one more time.
One last time.
Despite how dark the subject of mortality can be, Death always came on time.
And I was ready for it.
We did a road trip in Iceland last summer with my parents! I gave them this print for Christmas! #iceberg #iceland #jokulsarlon #illustration #roadtrip #icelandroadtrip #print (à Jökulsárlón)
