Tagline: i enjoy long walks on rooftops and ice cream in the winter. i'm also a professional armadillo wrestler. my grandpa trained me how to properly grapple their bodies when i was 8. i forgot. thus, i have my own armadillo wrestling technique. wish to meet fellow athletes, musicians, caramel peanut cookers, and good-smelling people.

Bio:
One of the most complete and talented DJs in the US, DJ Sleeper can kill you in a battle, blow the roof off a club, & put out an untouchable mixtape on the same day.
Widely known for his Wake Up Mixtapes, Sleeper is in the blend cd elite. Never one to just throw some new tracks on a cd and call it a mixtape - his clever & creative blends all weave together to form a one of a kind musical experience.
MTV recently picked Sleeper's Explosive Blends as a notable selection on their Mixtape Mondays.
He has created blend cds for Hip Hop Congress - the third largest non profit hip hop organization in the world, & SpitKicker - home to celebrities such as Kanye West, Talib Kweli and Dave Chappelle.
Sleeper has spun at the Ministry of Sound in Taipei - the biggest club in Asia, Red Bull events, Adidas parties, Hot Import Nights, XM Radio, and hot spots in DC, Chicago & all across the nation.
In the clubs, his vast record collection of old school, reggae, R&B, rock & electronic combined with his meticulous mixing skills, allow him to constantly build up energy that you have to see to believe.
With his ability to juggle & remix tracks live while incorporating turntablism into his blends, Sleeper creates an electric atmosphere unmatched by run-of-the-mill DJs.
He always leaves the crowd in awe.
Entering the battle scene last summer, Sleeper recently won Hip Hop Congress's Hip-Hop Awareness Festival DJ battle as well as Guitar Center's Spin Off store final.
He is currently one of the final eight DJs left in the World Series Turntable Championship.
so i'm driving to work today and i see a school bus pull over next to a soccer field.
and i think to myself
wow.
we grow up in school buses. and all of a sudden one day, they're gone forever. there's no goodbye, no farewell dance or parting shots. no one's ever sitting in their last school bus ride and thinking, this is the last fucking time i'm ever on a real school bus ride.
it's sad.
so when you have a minute, sit on the floor, take off your shoes, open a pistachio, pull your nipple, and reminisce about everything you did on a school bus. it will be the best time you've ever spent on the floor reminiscing.
i remember-
middle school trip to quebec, driving past the canada border, bus is packed with my french class classmates. some guy in the lane next to us thinks it'd be funny if he pulled out his dick and started jacking off. he thought right.
my fat, elementary school bully who would always punch the back of my seat,
cutting up and tagging names in last row of the bus,
the horrible hump which is the wheel well of the bus that intrudes way up so your legs feel like shrimps,
the whole bus singing that who stole the cookie from the cookie jar song, and when it was my turn, i'd always want to say something funny, but then never succeeding and looking like a pig,
trying to sit next to girls
trying to sit next to boys
trying to sit next to girls and boys, failing, then sitting alone
saving seats with backpacks
saving seats with my legs
mouthing conversations to friends in other buses
crumpling paper and throwing them at peoples ears
how hard it was to open the damn windows
sitting on one for an hour to and from HKIS in hong kong....
alright i'm kinda done, don't know how to end this, you bitch
