This is phucking brilliant..chea?!



Now I know I have a tendency to over hype things, but this is truly brilliant. I know I am very late on this movie and I have put off watching this for the longest time. Without giving it away, Once is a modern-day musical about a busker and an immigrant and their eventful week in Dublin, as they write, rehearse and record songs that tell their love story. Aside from the music, the chemistry of the two co stars was what made the movie that much more enjoyable. Not to sound cheesed or anything, but I haven't felt so moved by a film since Before Sunset. This is just a timeless movie, and a beautiful story. Not the mention that the soundtrack is amazing. I am really glad I watched this and I am really thankful for my friend Teddy for recommending this.

Photoshop magic

I love to mess around with photoshop, I don't do it as much as I use to, before I would always have it open so I can play around with pictures. Nowadays I only use it when I have a purpose for using photoshop. So with that said, the other day I was asked by a friend to help restore an old picture. Her mom had removed it from the original frame and during the process a "good" portion of it was ripped off the surface of the photo. Therefore leaving rips and white patch(s) on the bottom of the photo. My job was basically to "fill in the blank". I was "iffy" on posting this since I don't have the permission to but it's nothing a little smiley face can't fix. I am only posting this because I am proud of the work I did fixing this. Here's what I did.

Now I am not a pro, so to speak, there are flaws on the final product so don't kill me for it.

I need to started watching Jimmy Kimmel again

Check me out on...

...on Tumblr. I've been on there for a minute now, actually longer than I have been on Blogger. I just haven't gotten the hang of Tumblr until now. For the longest time I didn't know what I wanted to do with my tumblr blog. I certainly don't want to make it like this blog, but since I want to keep Overdose On Life more personal and up to date. I hope to make my Tumblr page more about what inspires me because I am always looking to be inspired. Whether it's art, music or culture, whatever the case it's going to be on there. Let's see how long I can keep up this dual blog thing going.

This is borderline comical

EDC opens up to CNN about his sex scandal. This is must watch, got me laughing when dude said he "wants to direct and produce movies". Talk about irony impaired. Click HERE for the link to the interview.

I remained a Giant and you're Jeremy Shockey



I expected better for this video, it's not bad, song still hot, and this is one of those rare occasions where I thought Lady GaGa looked good without shades.

Tomorrow will be okay

And you, bring me to my knees
Again
All the times,
That I could beg you please
In vain
All the times
That I felt insecure
For you
And I leave
My burdens at the door

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All this time
That I felt like this won't end
was for you
And I taste
What I could never have
was from you
All those times
That I've tried
My intentions
Were full of pride
And I waste
More time than anyone

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times
That I've cried
All this wasted
It's all inside
And I feel
All this pain
Stuffed it down
It's back again
And I lie
Here in bed
All alone
I can't mend
And I feel
Tomorrow will be okay

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

5 Years later...this comes out


One of my favourite Kanye records, GLC blessed out by posting the full video on his blog. I am still a little puzzled by why they didn't release it back in 04. But Whatever this is crack.

I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky
I've been workin' this graveshift and I ain't made shit
I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky

You are my sunshine
