Goin til U tell me to stop!

On this cold Tuesday night, I sit on my laptop gazing at the skyline of LoDo aka my backyard, while sipping my hot apple cider and Jameson, mind racing with all things that are approaching. It is hard for me to believe 2011 is already in its last quarter. That being said, I know these last months will be life changing. There are a number of things that have been happening, in the works and that my brothers and I have been planning. First, I have been actively dancing at Tracks since Climax Sundays at Vinyl ended on October 2nd. The response to ENCORE @ Vinyl was not as big as I anticipated. A handful of people I know didn't even know the Sunday night party continued on after Labor Day. I am thankful and glad to have completed my second Summer season there. I can now focus on one club and step up my game. Photos from the Tracks White Party and Tracks Homecoming are below. Last Saturday was like WOAH! I decided I needed a new challenge and started taking dance classes at Denver Dance last week which include Hip-Hop, Sexyesque and Pole. Yes, that's right pole class. The 10 pounds in ten weeks challenge was not completed, but I am proud to say I have since gained a total of 12 pounds. YESSIR! My first pole class was last Thursday and I must say the hardest part for me is getting over my fear of falling. I am not afraid of heights, but something about walking around the pole while holding on with both hands and throwing all your weight to one side and hooking your feet around it has me scared. I did however successfully climb the 12 ft pole during class. It is harder than I thought and really tests ones strength. I return to class #2 this Thursday.




Second, I am thrilled to be participating in another Fashion Denver event this Sunday 10/23/11. Revolution Fall Fashion Market will go down at Grant-Humphries Mansion located at 770 Pennsylvania from 11 - 6. Last show I was in was in May just before Memorial Day. I have missed the head of Fashion Denver, Brandi Shigley and all the peeps who put the show together. Local designers, make-up artists, and hair stylist and of course my beautiful fellow models. I am scheduled for a fitting manana evening to find out what looks I'll be rocking this weekend. I have also missed being in front of the camera. Shout out to Art Heffron who shot the pics below. I look forward to the new shoots that will occur Sunday and getting my hair did. I'll have to pass on the weekly fade this week. Sorry Cruz.

Also going down manana after my fitting I am scheduled to scope out a local creative co-op boutique on Santa Fe with the bros to discuss details with the owner about carrying our Rocha Inc line of tees and hoodies. We are currently in the process of reviewing new art images for new apparel and are shooting for a relaunch date before the end of the year. Tomorrow we will get the deets of the shop and view the showroom and start planning quantity of products, styles, and display ideas. Though my brothers and I have taken a break this year from the Rocha Inc line, we are boiling with new ideas/thoughts that we can no longer contain. We look forward to sharing our vision with all of you. Will Conceited Bastards have all we are looking for?

Last, and in my opinion the most important event this year, is the on-going planning and fine tuning of Mauricio's 21st birthday celebration. It is in exactly four weeks! After properties being sold unexpectedly, fine print, contracts, deposit talk and ridic over charges from a couple of restaurants I am pleased we have confirmation on a location. We will be having a birthday dinner/party in honor of this life changing event. I have waited and imagined the day the "baby boy" of our family would be of legal age. The day is only a month away. Mauricio has decided to share this special evening with family and close friends before heading off to tear up Las Vegas!! My little bro only turns 21 once and we have lots planned for the Vegas trip. I will document the adventures of Sin City with pleasure. So much going on, so much to do. The clock is ticking. Speaking for my bros, we eagerly await what is still in store for us. The best is yet to come!!
