Homebrew - Running Out Of Time

WELL WHAT DO I KNOW?

Alot according to my ownself. how do you play a player? is to how do you not trust ya intuition ..what a freaking shocking week! just when ya wallowing in your own self pity someone else goes and does one better. Distraction the key to gettin it right! take care out there ya'll, life is short and full of opportunities, dont sell ya self short because of some belief that has been challenged and proven wrong. same tricks end in the same results, perhaps switch ya game up. im about to with no idea.hmmmmm sounds dodgy :)

After a hearty weekend of catch ups down home i wonder :what would you do to see the value of your life and sharing that with someone you love? does death have to preceed before you realise to make sure you check yo self,wants and needs? im reading alot into selfish people, so many in my immediate vicinity sucking the life out of my good nature. what a bore- lucky i have extra reserves. Re connecting with peeps from my past has been insightful and refreshing. i like finding myself .again.and again and again! #laugh

What a beautiful site to see so many supporters ,lovers and homebre's at the Homebrewcrew video release. Start early with no performances till late, no worries though, with hook ups from burger fuel and the beer sponsor and a lil assistance from Na_Cuz, it was a good time indeed. Twas set in the Dale aka Avondale and the old skool Cinema's was a great evening catching up. Not sure who won the raffel or the prize of a date with Haz, but lucky guy whoever it was :) so true to the brew the video is a slick production, effects and role playing. def one for the history books. congrats guys. madd skillz. Missed the afterparty , sounded like a mung bean convention. good job guys x Anything the brew fallas touch will def be good. keep ya ear to the ground for new Team Dynamite and @peace.

Eggs Eggs Eggs..................

So many featured this Easter, caramello was present, marshmallow too, hollow eggs, crunchie eggs, seashelle shaped eggs, caramellow eggs, scrambled eggs, poached eggs, fried eggs and one special eggroll ahhhh easter eggy goodness i ate so many, think i might be sick ;)

Im writing this from my hometown Mt Maunganui. So good visiting home, always an awesome reminder of who i am and why i left in the first place. I couldn't be any cooler if i tried, why is that so intimidating? Im just Phaze. Normal ish, kind hearted, pretty funky, talented, beautiful, thoughtful and full of it. Love.

Speaking of which, congratulations to Bex , Nick and Kaya on their wedding nuptials, so love a wedding especially one celebrated with a bouncy castle,for the adults. My kinda fun. Chocolate, bouncy castles and love. Sure thats all you really need, oh and good kicks. YUM at the Nike colourways available, Nike def the leaders in style there. I was invited to go shoe shopping with my Nefs, cause im the cool Aunty. Went riding on his bamboo longboard to, its so dope. He has a broken arm having come off it, tried to relate with my own story of mashing my elbow a while back coming off my ex's longboard, do you know how much you use and need ya elbows? scrap n slice off the skin and have a go- not recommended!

Young at heart i think is the element of my cool, just a big kid at heart , i may never grow up!

Im looking forward to new projects in the mix that will allow me to fuse my love of hip hop and fashion all in the one. so excited. June it should all come to frutition and available to the masses.

Waxed Crew adventures will also be ready to shine in June. Matariki, the Maori new year also features in June: tis a time to remember, celebrate and start fresh. Which i intend to do.................

Seems im forever in love and learning so many great lessons and heartaches. supposedly im a serial 'in love guy', fall for all the loosers and pay no mind to the good cunts. ha where you at nukka? My friends both a blessing and a black up- put up with so much of my strife and hurt in the last month i am grateful but realise i should deal more in myself first. My 7yr old has contemplation down packed. getting back to basics and the simple stuff : adopting the four agreements which i managed to lose along the way somewhere..... be impeccable with ya word, dont take anything personal, dont make assumptions and always do ya best . sounds like a recipe for success. and the above sounds like i need an agnony aunt. #laugh- i say it cause i can and it matters to me. im the most important person in my world. best HOLLA x

straight trippin! what is this??? DO NOT DISTURB

you should be here.................

Its a regurgitation up in this place!

Music being a driving force for the fire within, on the blog these last few days. I will play them to a wider audience on Thursdays between 12-2pm NZT on kfmradio.co.nz special just for y'all. tune up on and in to "three phaze power"- with your host Phaze featuring beats and other good stuff!

Phazing in and out of passion is good fun, reminds me of the 30 day song challenge- not sure id manage it but watch this space ya never know. It surprises me how perplex situations can become when it should all be so simple. I tend to think that making an affirmative decision based on fact (as opposed to passion) should set you on the right path to acquiring ya dreams, be happy with the decision you make .........im not sure what the point of being indecisive after you've made a decision is about,but it could surely send you into a pit of despair and create an unnecessary dilema for all involved. live with it. own it till its all yours.changed ya mind? suit the situation and new decision to ya needs.

sitting by ya self mixed up? i tried to get ya right

i experienced interesting observations and conversations the past 24 hours- def gave perspective into the fractions of new Zealand rural vs urban mindsets. we have a long way to go from racism and changing the status quo. hearing from a two year old threatening to 'smack you in the head' or smack these two puppies in the head because they jumped her fence, to where to bury a dead child with her mum or dads family? to getting hitched and finding a suitable wedding planner to being dicked around by a dick cause he's in love with two ideas of happy, to moms homemade cooking and musing over the days news tikitane being arrested in tauranga the capital of baldheads! its a wonder the world and mine especially, is in such turmoil. tiring of 'the game of love' meets 'wheel of torture' meets 'whose turn is it anyway'

maybe some controlled fighting will help me out for a minute ....keen to catch UFC 129- I've lost count at whereim up to :( miss it bad. GSP VS JAKE SHEILDS and its a title fight!April 30th out of Toronto. yeah some physical contact is probably whats in order. blaow!

All that glitters is not gold.................its a mafaaka playing dress ups!

The quality of our thoughts dictates the quality of our life .............. hence switching it back up to good and positive. When one door closes another always opens as i am learning the hard way. life can be to cliched. All that advice falling on deaf ears, mine to be exact. i was always the kid who had to learn the lesson by doing it anyway, fall hard when your to righteous. expectations on people and things that dont meet my standards, is justified when it works out, but what if it doesnt?

My upbringing and grandparents have a lot to answer for instilling the 'princess syndrome' in me and spoiling me rotten. There was nothing more comforting then hugs and cuddles from my grandparents- huge smiles and bear hugs at every meeting and parting, no wonder i like cuddlez from the ones i love, so much. Recreating such memories has been difficult over the years but now with my own children unconditional love is ever present in their eyes, smiles and conversation.

It is my belief that if you dont ask for want you want then how will you get it?dont ask dont get because no one knows what you need, all seems so simple but alas its not. Meditation has helped and back to yoga. This mornings session with our 2yr old 'Lollies' was def a highlight this morning- to cute with her headstands aka bum in the air and unbalanced on her feet :) reminder that life is for living, loving and being the best you can be.

see you soon my love x

You should only lie to your self so many times in your lifetime. Save ya self the drama of finding the truth does really hurt. Accept and see the truth early and move, i say.

Cee-Lo Green - I'll Kill Her

Good Morning the first day of the rest of my life....

Curve Ball anyone? This last week has been so trying on my personal relationships and friendships i wonder how scientist who are pressured to perform miracles cope with such stress! Me, once upon a time would've got soooooo shit faced with by bro Stu to dull the pain- but alas i learned that being mungface one day hungover for the next don't solve nothing. Wake up to the Same shit just a different day. Only thing that does help is blogging! lol, no its actually staying busy and focused! hence my post about nothing :)

How to mend: start by ignoring self doubt- I'm big on this one because I'm quiet arrogant and realise my worth. will the real Phaze please stand up! a lil bit of fresh air and yoga to help settle the mind, advice from friends who have no relevant experience , just alot of opinions on what to do and say, some blaze and a catalogue of good beats to help articulate ya current mood.

I'm mood swinging between gangsta rap and love tunes, see above for this mornings lil helpers. Looking good is another deflector, and I'm big on outfits and image- fickle yes! comes in close behind shallow and arrogant.

Nothing beats a heated discussion that results in positive resolutions and being on the same page as. Moving forward is the only option, preferably together in unison and on the flight to find the best beats and looks :) today is a good day indeed. feel the pain.
