Moir's Madness

Dude, you aren't down. I'm in Kuwait with 115 degree heat and getting hotter by the day. Your good dawg, don't make me get home and drive to canada to beat some sense into you. If I were you I would just be like, "my name is fucking jorden moir and I can do this" and bust a fucking insane move with no add value because it's too fucking wierd to comprehend. Because your Jorden Moir and you can.

Yo, I'll help you push some of those DVDs man. I'm all about getting quality footbag DVDs of an amazing player like you in stores. In fact, when you announced it I thought it was brilliant. You get me the DVDs, I'll get you the sales. I can't help you with DVD conversion/production, but hopefully someone on here or other online info can help. If I can find some tips on that, I'll post them in here.

A lot of super-successful people never graduated from high school or went to college. I'm not saying don't do this, of course it's very important. I'm just saying those people were successful because they never lost site of their dream, and they chased their passion every single day of their lives until became a reality. They were the same way. All the other stuff kinda fell away and never got done, but their dream became realized because they worked on it during 90% of their waking life.

Thanks everybody!

I seem to be over the 'stress hump' now. Wow -- that really sucked!

It's important to take shit in steps, as I've realised. Thinking of everything at once gets you totally stressed and unable to function.

This weekend should be pretty dope. Buskerfest performance in my hometown with Matt and Johnny! I have some kiiiiiller ideas for audience appeal and promoting the sport!

Juggling has been good lately. Dipping in to the immersive world of siteswaps.

He's not goin to Montreal- he's playing at the Buskerfest in his hometown!

Jorden- good to hear you're figuring things out. It sounds like that chat we had helped!

I can't wait until Saturday! I will be there around 9 or 10. And I'm bringing my camera so I will totally film you guys perform!!!

I'll just give you the footage.

P.S. As you know, I <3 film & video (studying it in school), so I promise it will be good!

Camilleon is my Hero now! Your the best. If you are studying film & video you should make a footbagvid as one of your projects. I want to see it. YAY!

I guess this should have been a PM. Sorry for the hijacking.

Hey Jorden!

I just wanted to say, break a leg at World's!!! I'm sure you'll make us Canadians proud... as always.

I also wanted to say that I had a blast at Buskerfest, thanks for having us out. You're a cool guy and I'm happy things are starting to work out for you. It was a lot of fun chilling at your house and in the FAMOUS DESTROYER SHRED BASEMENT/BEDROOM (where all the magic happens)!

I can't wait to see that finished video...

... I especially enjoyed chilling with your mom! She's one of the coolest people ever, I really like her.

Anyway, I hope to make it out to Dundas some more this summer. Mike is gonna have a shred/pool party at his mom's place in Hamilton! It will be wicked, and you have no excuse to not attend. We'll also be having some fun things here in the city this summer, so I hope you make it down a few times too.

So...take care, have a safe trip, and tear it up!!!

Love,

Camille
