AAAHHHHHHHHHHH AMAZING MOVIE! I would so just write that because I can not put it into words how great that movie it was. I finally saw it this past Monday with my baboon it was our part two to our V-Day. Anyways back to the topic on hand Avatar it was such a well put together movie I can’t believe the graphics the story line and the way the actors executed their lines. Fun Fact: James Cameron had this movie written and ready to go since 1999. He wasn’t able to record the movie because budget issues and lack of advancement of CGI. I have to say I’m glad he waited it out.
The plot of the story was so beautiful it had romance and yet an edge of action in it. It didn’t just focus on the sappy love story part of it, he also brought in current events and worked it into the movie. With explosives and vulgar language all it needed was a little bit of nudity and I would have died a happy gay man LOL. I guess he wanted to keep it more PG so kids could enjoy it also. Now I know many fanatics that have seen this movie countless of times and many said they saw it both 3D and non 3D, it still was a great movie. I saw it IMAX 3D and from my personal experience I would say to spend that $17.00 and enjoy that ddaaamm movie because its going in my Top 5 Movie list.

Aids Walk May 16, 2010

On May 16, 2010 God willing the entire Daniels Family will be walking the Aids Walk together in NYC. We have set a goal of raising $1,000 at least by the time we walk this fundraiser. This will be done as a family who is compiled by Nashalee, Foxxie-Jane, Jaylin, Nickii, Jasmine, Danity, Yoly & Barnie Daniels. The week before on May 9th we are also having a Family night at Escuelita Night Club NYC. Which will just showcase our talent and also hard work we put into raising the money for the Aids Walk. I came up with a system, that I hope, should push the younger ones to raise more money. For the Daniels night it wont be like the new trend [ A Benefit Show ]. Who ever raises $100 or more for the Aids Walk, they will be able to keep their tips for the night. Those who do not raise enough money will use their tips to buy a bunch of M.A.C. Viva Glam Lipsticks, which all proceeds are donated to the M.A.C. Aids fund.

I came up with this idea out of no where I feel like us as young gay Americas we should be doing more for our community. We actually have the freedom and accessibility to help those who are in need and come from almost a similar lifestyle like us. When you look around the world you see such ignorance and rage when it comes towards the LGBT community and us as Americans take it for granted. I think especially New Yorkers because even in our own country discrimination is still going on against us.

Which is pretty stupid I know maybe sometimes us “gays” may act out immaturely or just plain crazy. But people are just judging us on something we do like 3 hours at most out of the day. Our main difference from the rest of the “normal” world is we have sex or sexual arousal from the same sex. Other then that our worlds aren’t that different. Well maybe the drag queen and transsexual thing but hey let a bitch rock. Can people really feel the need to put us down and hurt us for an action that we don’t do on a daily basis?!

I feel as that if the gay community was more accepted from when we are young and we are allowed to let explore our own sexuality STD’s wouldn’t be as high. We are suppressed for so many years that once we get the chance to let loose we go crazy. Its like putting a dog in a cage most of its life ones you let it out to play in that big backyard he runs out mad and tries to enjoy all that he has been waiting to enjoy.

Well with all that said please any contribution will help, check out my page to make a donation it is going to a great cause. If you are not able to do so through the website please contact me directly at bamboo.texture@gmail.com with the subject title AIDS WALK.

Brittanya Michelle Daniels

As a person she is the complete opposite of who I am as a person right now in life. . .many will say she is who I used to be. Funny outgoing ambitious courageous. . .That is why I will always considered her my sister. Never as a whole we are like day & night in opposite sides of the spectrum. . .

When I first started with the whole illusion she was Michelle. Later she evolved into Kimberly who became more courageous Kiara. I then thought about what the named invoked and noticed she isn’t anything like me way to different. That’s when I tried a softer name ARIA. I was pretty happy with the name, but then I seen Brittanya. Now I’m not a big fan of naming people because of the person. Like naming myself Beyonce because I think it would make me more sicking. But Brittanya was different she had an edge, tattoos attitude but still a with feminine daminar.  So now with a name in place well first name that is I felt I needed a last name. I was in somewhat from jumping from gay mother to gay mother and I didn’t like how I was going about it. Until one day I thought that maybe I really don’t need a gay mother or someone’s last name. I felt like I can put myself together myself and keep this new persona up all by myself.

Now it took me so many first names I wondered how many last name I will go through. That will have to be a no no. while surfing MySpace I came across another drag who was actually using her [ male ] middle name as her last name. Hmm now my middle name is Daniel, Brittanya Daniel hhmmm not sure then both [ migguelii & Bri ] favorite drink is Jack Daniels why not just throw an S at the end. –dances. I was so close now I got my First and Last name now it wasn’t until recently that Michelle popped into my head. I love Brittanya but I also felt some attachment to the name Michelle so I thought well hey I am Dominican why not have a middle name also. So that’s how the birth of my drag alter ego came about Brittanya Michelle Daniels. People still make fun of me by saying I need to stick to my name because she has a couple of nick names. Her tag is BriAmore<3 which I got tattooed on the side of my RIGHT hand. Of course also just Bri or Ms. Daniels if your nasty =P

Now I know many people think it’s completely retarded how I separate Bri and migguelii. I really consider her my sister my gay kids call her auntie and all the what nots. I just truly feel she is my escape and when I’m her there’s never anything of migguelii there. She is the type to stop and think and still find a way to enjoy life. She’s relaxed and humble. Energetic and funny always up for new things. It’s almost how when I get drunk but when she comes out she never needs a drink to really enjoy her life.

A vampire's life is a drag.

So earlier this week I went to the movies w| my baboon [ J.Anthony ] and saw Daybreakers. Pretty good movie I didn't enjoy how they made the volume so loud. To me it seemed that they were trying so hard to scare you like they didn't have enough of the trill factor to do it on its own. Then the story line was really good but the execution part of it was very BLEH. They seemed to be missing a lot of scenes and added just extra unnecessary scenes. Also the editing part of the movie was very amateur. Overall I would advise you guys to wait for the the DVD if you like vamp movies. I am a big fan of the vamp situation and I am loving the whole twists that people are bringing into these recent movies. Hopefully they don't go to over board w| it.

Currently I am in the middle of writing my very own vamp novel. To me I'm so intrigued by the way they live and run there life. I guess because being a gay man and not being excepted by society I can some what relate to them. They never really are excepted in the end and when outsiders come in to the scene its just for a tease.

In other news Drag Race starts very very soon. -dances. . .I can't wait of course me being a drag [ BriAmore ] and all I live for all these kind of shows. One of our Quote on Quote New York Drags are on their [ Sahara D. ] hey i feel personally that her girlfriend [ Manila ] would have been a way better candidate but whatever. I have noticed that everything is about money ratings and sex, especially when it means gay men SEX is a big part of production. But let's see who wins this season hopefully the right candidate because last season Nina Flowers was robbed from her title. Hey Rupaul is black she needs her girls to be top #1. -covers mouth like Mary J Blidge on American Idol. . ."Did I say that out loud".

Dear mom,

I love you w| all my heart, but I can't become you. I have to watch you now to know what not to do. Its been so long since I seen you and the last time I saw you my mind was in a different mentality. Now i see what wrongs you have thought me, my jealousy, bad judgment, and bitterness. You have been a great mom to over come all that you have but I just can't become you. I don't seem to understand why you do the things you do at time because they are the same things I do. Is it because your mom did to you also? I find myself in the same situations and mad about all the same things you get mad about. It frustrates me now to think that it was because of you that i missed or messed up so many good relationship like you have done. . .

It is true what they say about the apple never falls from the tree.

Sary Gays ::back click:: Spell Check

So it is something that i have dealt w| since a child. I don't know if it was the lack of parental guidance or just my laziness now when I'm a young adult. Since i been a little boy i always had trouble w| spelling and grammar its the weirdest thing because all my English teachers said it i can write a great story but when it came to the spelling i sucked. Its all also a big excuse in my part because I could take the chance out and check my spelling I just don't see the need to especially when it comes to MY thoughts. It hasn't ever frustrated or embarrassed me this issue I guess its because i know many others out their have the same issue.

Its pretty funny also because I just noticed its the A's and E's I'm messing up. Does that mean something? Like psychological or something LOL. "Because everyone made fun of my big apple when young now I resent the letters A & E". OH! A&E maybe its the crappy clothing from American Eagle that I just don't like hahaha I don't know. All i can say is i apologize in advance everyone bare w| me. And I don't mind the criticism I actually encourage it I like the help. . .


Sorry Guys I'll back click more often and watch out for the words.

Internet job hunt

So i been unemployed and collecting for a while now amd i been searching for a job. My boyfriend has found a couple good sites and one of them had a little contest going on. It was calle the worst first day. I entered the contest and wrote a mini paragraph about my worst first day.

" Well my worst first day was actually my fault and it was at Bare Esentials. It was a position for a make up artist i needed a job so i took it and just lied on the application and said ive done make up in weedings. I was only 17 i did not know better. It came down to do the make up i started off with a foundation color to light on the lady. Then i went on to apply a bright blue on the lid w heavy fucia pink cheeks. She then asked for a nice highlighter color. So i went behind the counter and got her a real highlighter. My trainer busted out laughing and diffused the situation befor the client could look. Now i got my experience and became a professional make up artist. "

its so funny i havent thought about that in a while because it wasso log ago. And its crazy to think that, that is how my love for make up started. I just wanted to share that ;]

What does love got to with it?

Tina has sang this line so many times an until a year ago i never knew what she ment. About One week & One year ago i finally met in person my special someone. He has truely and i can say truely become my true love. That if so i was to mark my body w his name i would never regret it because his my true love. When i met him i didnt think it could have become that. Not only was i looking for a one night stand and not ready for a relationship. But we come from two different parts of the world our friends and family our morals and just everything. I fell in love not in the typical pupoy childish way but a more Eve - Love is blind |  kind of way. He has a become a part of my life and i know he always will no matter what happens w us atleast on my part his my soul mate. We finish each others thoughts not sentences thoughts. 

While i was falling in love well we were falling in love we created a very un healthy enviroment. We did not hit w our fist but we did w our words. We also shut out the world. Something i think its very common and easy to happen in a young and new relationship. It got to a point where i stopped seeing my close friends and then even my family. I lost my job and then my apartment and almost everything i worked so hard for. Just because of jelousy and insecurities and also comfort. It got really easy and comfterble in that room. No change no outside world somewhat kind sick safe. Not thing will ever happen to me because nothing ever does happen. I needed to get out if not for me then for us. If i hadnt get out and made a dicision to change my life i think words would have turn to fist. This is so hard to be away from him but i think it will be showing how much we do love each other and also how much we need to change, if not him then atleast thats a "I" for me. I dont know what the future maybe bring for us nor do i care to know because i know either way he will b in my life and scouts honor he will be my last boyfriend if we stay together or not. Thats a whole nother blog stay tuned ;]

"Lets take a jorney into uptowns elite"

So the pas couple of days have been a roller coaster ride I left my boyfreinds house and Im staying w my perants out in long island. That will be a whole nother blog. Well on the night i left of course i hang w my gay mother Raulita [ Raul Lopez: hood by air ] & titi Nina. Me and my mother have a very fucked up relationship from the outside you would think its very verbal, to say the least. Now as you know in previous blogs i have spoken about gay or drag families. Well i will touch lightly on this subject again. 

Growing up most my life an only child in the subburbs of long island i say i grew a big imagination. This has carried into my Young-Adult life. I think it is a big part to my creative processe when i do make up and also drag. Well i always fantasied to not only have a close gay family but as corny as it sounds "cool" one. Now the group that i consider my gay family doesnt run around calling each other cousin sister brother maybe ones or twice son mother father. But i just never really looked and seen that i had all this time what i wanted and its really a beautiful thing to know especially now in this hard time. 

Well on my first night as a qoute on qoute "FREED" man we went to mamajuana cafe. I have been their a couple of times before in the past. Really nice spot in high and mighty uptown scene [ Latin ] they hooka serve slammin sangria and over priced food. AKA it could seem kinda booji. Not because of the caliber it holds but a lot of pretentious people go their. Well this night Anais Martinez performed ima put some vids up later in th week. Wow the first time i herd her sing live was in my friends living room shes really close friends w my group. Well she sang live on a mic she did Rihannas Russian Roulette and put the poor barbados bitch to shame. Because come on we all know Rihanna is a robot she dont sound good live. I still live for you miss thing keep doing your thing. Anyways Anais went on to do some old school spanish ballads and some vouging competion. Lol pretty crazy thing all the mean while my friends popped henny bottles and minguled w| uptowns elite. To say that i had an amazing time would be a lie. I was heart broken and this is also just a regular tuesday night. Its our or thiers family game night. Hahahah but lets watch out for more on this people. 

Oh and soon ones things get more situated in my life i will be posting ones a week, YouTube videos thats i randomly record about the most random things in life. 

Shop w| "People Like Me"

-stumbles over my profiles music and takes eye boogers out.


Mornin' people. So I woke up this morning to my dumb iPhone telling me to check my FB inbox aahhhh. And I seen that i had a new message from an old high school class mate Gandhi R. he was pitching his new clothing like "People like me!" so of course because it involved clothes i had to check it out. Now go on and you do the same [ http://www.peoplelikemestore.com/ ] i bet you would likes.


I fell for it, i love the website's visual concept of this new up and coming clothing line [ P.S. So did my sister BriAmore<3 ] "Keep you hands to yourself" in a womans Large she would love yah for ever ::hint hint::. But yes I did really enjoy the new twist to the typical Tee that everyone usually sells. I have to say i hope they have a patent for this new line because they don't need some over marked company coming in and stealing their nitch. I will be purchasing for myself the "mama's boy" TEE just because i love my mama & love to show support ;]
