San Francisco day 1
San Francisco, United States
day 1: David and Hollie
day 0: Me with pink suitcase
Well, the journey started monday the 20th october 2008 around 6 a.m. I got up, took a shower, called a cab and then there was no turning back. I landed in Heathrow where I had to wait for 3 hours, so I ate a snack and bough me a new camera with what I will document pictures and upload on this blog.
The flight from Heathrow to San Francisco was about 11 hours long and it went pretty quick. The only thing is, I sat between 3 people in the middle row section and it was kinda hard to go to the toilet when everyone was sleeping. (I kinda felt like Elaine in Seinfeld). I really had a bad stomach, you know the kind when you have gas and the "air" inside is really painful. Feels like someone is giving you an uppercut and I didn't dare let it go since there was this cute girl sitting next to me with her hot mom. So I kinda sat sideways getting ready to fart against the American who sat on the other side of me, but when I tried to let it go, it went right back in again.
Then came the snack and I though to myself shit. But the positive thing was that he woke up and I could sneak out after the snack...and I did. When I locked my ass in the toilet, I farted the most silent, but yet longest fart ever made in the history of mankind. Lovely.
Right after that we were ready to land the plane. I was excited and thought to myself that this is not happening, I am not going to spend 2 months in S.F.. It was (still is) unrealistic for me. I took the train from the Airport and when I got off all I saw where bums begging for money mixed with a few asian tourists. Remember, I am traveling with my pink suitcase. I finally found the hostel.
I found out my roommate was french so I got the chance to use my french as well as my English. (The sad thing is that I don't remember his name, maybe it was Pierre?)
I logged on to my computer and wrote to Hollie Stevens, the main attraction of my project. We agreed to meet up the 21th october for drinks. I then went out to have something to eat. I was exhausted. I came back and wanted to go to bed, but before going to sleep I just had to check out my mails. Then Hollie had sent me a mail wich said:
"You want to catch a cab to Cha Cha Cha's located in the mission. It's on 2327 Mission St (between 19th St & 20th St). Meet at 9:45? Does that sounds cool?"
There I met Hollie and one of her clown friends worked there. We all chatted about all kinds of subjects and had a few drinks to many...

San Francisco day 2
San Francisco, United States
Waffle à la David
Well what can I say. Naturally there will be day 2 after a day one.
The Hostel I am staying in serves free breakfast, so I kinda imagined that there would be a table with bread , egg and bacon maybe, cereals etc. (how naïve of me). Actually, the breakfast was a big bowl of american style waffle mix, and a waffle iron (or what the hell it is called). I took on some grease and was about to make my first breakfast ever in S.F. and do you know what happened?
When my waffle was done, I was about to take it out but when I opened the waffle iron, that mother fucker was stuck, not because it was burnt or anything, simply because I didn't grease up the iron enough. So I had to use 30 min of my day scraping the waffle makin' machine clean while a few asians were losing their patience and insisted on scraping the rest. So I let them. After the lovely breakfast I brushed my teeth, washed my face (I hope my mother reads that line) the usual and went out to get a phone. If you wish to send a text message and say hi send to this number: +1 415-734-8781. After getting my phone I was suppose to meet Hollie on Baker Beach. She sent me like a few links how to get to a few places (2 different places), I really though that the 2 different places was 2 different ways on how to get to 1 place; Baker Beach. I ended up in Hollie Stevens Neighborhood. I was suppose to meet her there and we would go to the beach together. After a few phone calls and a few hours I finally found my way to Baker Beach. I ended up at this crazy spot with these crazy people surrounding Hollie, but they were pretty cool. They were naked and playing volleyball. I Startet shooting my first scenes that day, and filmed Hollies reaction while she was drinking Norwegian Aquivit, and most Norwegian don't like that spirit. After the beach I met one of Hollies friends, a 47 year old guy by the name of Tomas. He was pretty cool but talked a lot. I went home while Hollie and Tomas went to an event where they got free ribs and drinks, in the meanwhile, I went to a corean resturant to eat dinner. The food really sucked, it sucked so bad that I asked them put my shit in a doggy bag and threw it away. I met Hollie and Tomas later on and we went to a few bars where they played rock. I tried to get a money with drawl but my card didn't work. Had to call my bank and try to fix it, but they said nothing was wrong with it. So now I am excited about my card. Does it work? I still don't know. I went home to bed and fell a sleep like a little drunk baby.

San Francisco day 3
Hollie Stevens, Cherry and I outside the gothbar
Fuck Waffles. I went to the store and bough cereals and milk. It came out kinda expensive almost 10 $, what the fuck is that, it is cheaper with beer. Maybe I should rely on alcohol in order to survive? What do you think of that. So far the drinks have been free for most of the time thanks to Hollie. I edited a little video clip from Baker Beach where Hollie tries Aquivit for the first time. Check it out. Hollie called me today and said that she would take me on a tour round the city. It was pretty cool cause people stopped us everywhere and asked stupid ass questions like:
- Sir, if I hang with you, can you find me a beautiful girl like that to?
- How tha hell did that negro end up with a gurl like dat? oowee work it gurl.
- Pete, look at her, who the fuck is she?
- work that ass girl.
etc...
It was kind of fun and 3 out of 4 it was negros complimenting (or call them what you like). We went to the bay and there was this sick museum where they had like old arcade games. Much of it was circus inspired. It was fun. After the tourism stuff we went to a place with a lot graffiti (think the place was called mission). It was a friend of Hollie who had made the pieces. We then went to a liquor store and bought some sky vodka and redbull and headed back to the hostel where we drank and saw some of my art films. We had a pretty good time. Other than that, Hollie invited me to this crazy Goth SM club. Lets pause for a second. I want to talk about that club. I paid 10 $ to get in, and the first I saw was a girl within a fence area getting whipped on her ass (she was wearing a thong). We then went downstairs and there was this huge dancefloor where they played mostly techno/trance/electronica (remember, this was like a emo goth club). Almost all the girls wore corsettes and thong / g-strings with sick make-up. It didn't matter if she was fat or slim, they all wore almost the same thing. I talked to a few of them and met this cool girl by the name Patricia West. She was a prostitute activist who was best friend with a pornstar. (kinda ironic.). So we agreed on doing a interview about her work and beliefs toward prostitution. I also met a chick by the name of Cherry. Cherry and her boyfriend, Dean, are both into porn and we went to an after party at their place which was located 300 metres from my hostel.
We had a few drinks and talked until 5 a.m.
I was just sitting there thinking to myself: "here I am sitting with 3 people who are all into porn. Is this for real?". My project is about the porn industry, how are these people when they are off camera? What is their background? and why do they chose to be in the porn industry? I have to find out more. That is the reason why I am staying here for 2 months. I fell asleep on the couch and Hollie woke me up and said she had to go. She is currently in L.A shooting a few internet scenes. I have the week end for myself so I will try to interview some of the other characters.
P.S: check out new photos in the photo section.

san Francisco day 4
D.Scott Miller and wife
I came home from Dean and Cherries afterparty still kinda drunk. I went to the kitchen to have breakfast and I saw a girl from taiwan with a perfect waffle. I didn't quite have the urge for Cereals and milk. I started talking to this girl and told her about my problems (my waffle making problems), she had compassion for me so she agreed to make me a waffle. It came out perfect. We sat down and chatted and suddenly there came another girl from taiwan, and before I knew it, I was surrounded by 5 of them. I entertained them and told them false gossip about Norway and Norwegian (that is what love about my second country, little does the world know about it).
After that I relaxed and worked on my blog. I had an appointment with a friend of Darius James, a gentleman by the name D. Scott Miller. I met him for a coffee and we hung out talking about each others projects. It was pretty cool hanging out with him, very smart and interesting character. He took me to different art spaces and showed me around where all the crackwhores and crackhead hang. We went to get D. Scotts wife, and we walked towards my hostel. When I got to the hostel, some people sat outside drinking. They asked me to join them. I was so tired but I am here alone and want to make all kinds of friends so I didn't decline the offer. I went to my room, took a shower, and joined them in the middle of a drinking game. They were pretty amazing people. I met this girl named Nikita who is also an art student and a stripper. She is doing an art project similar to mine. So we decided to make something together. The only problem now is that I don't know if it was the booze talking or if we're actually doing it. Time will tell. The night out with the hostel people reminded me a night out with "normal" people, like going to karaoke and to a regular club afterwards. not a big of deal.

To keep this one pretty short, nothing really happened. I went and did a big tour all by myself and found some awesome spots that I will shoot tomorrow.. I found a pimp store and I bought myself a pink dress. I am now going out with some of my hostel friends and see where the night takes us. Will update tomorrow morning.
Update: We ended up at a bar and were all really drunk ( If you don't like my work ethics then fuck you... :P )

On day 5, nothing really happened until 6 30 p.m. Before that I wrote blog and edited video. But I met up with Mari, a good friend of mine from Norway. We was going to go to a concert, I never remember the name but there was me and one more black guy at the spot, so it speaks for itself. The rest of the crowd looked like weed smokin hippies. Before the concert we went and ate Chicago style pizza pie. It was pretty good but I only had 1 piece of the pie. We discussed a lot about my project about what I will mention in the blog when the time is right. So keep reading my blog and you will know what the hell I am doing here. Anyways one of Maris friends, a girl by the name Cathrine, is an Norwegian reporter for a news paper called "Dagbladet". That is probably one of the most sold newspapers in Norway. She though my project would be good for the newspaper. So we have to see how that goes. But back to the concert. We went there and the whole arena smelled like weed. There were 3 bands playing all together. I guess we can call the style indie rock or alternative rock or something. My problem was that I was sooo tired that this kind of music didn't really help on my mood. I literally fell asleep standing a few times. You probably think : "how is that even possible"? Well imagine that you are sitting in a chair and you suddenly dip of and you kinda get electro shocked before you open your eyes again. When that happen you don't really put your whole body to sleep, I mean you're still sitting up while your dipping off. I guess it is the same thing but instead for sitting I was standing. I went home round midnight and totally fell asleep right away.
So it was kind of a boring day, but at the same time very interesting. It was so nice meeting Mari again, and her friends were totally cool. (even though we all were kind of tired.). It was one of those bizzarre nights.

Nikita
Today was kinda cool, Nikita and I went for a long walk talking about everything from arts to consperacy theories. We passed through the real China town. Not the tourist one, but the part of C.T where you can get dinner for 3.50 USD and still don't get sick. We found a park in little Italy and sat there and chattet for a while, planing projects together. Oh for those who don't know Nikita, I guess I mentioned her earlier in the blog, she is a british artist that is doing her assignment her in San fran, just like me in a way.. We were hanging out waiting for this artist to call us, but he never did. I wrote a mail to this legal sex-club and asked if I could come over and do an interview and if they could give me a tour.
Well that was my sunday.

Hollie Stevens and D.Scott
For some reason, the last few days has been not that interesting writing cause nothing really happened. I feel like I have to do something wild (could be a new movie David goes wild) in order to keep entertaining my fellow blog readers, cause lets face it. This is the best blog out there, Imma funny muthafucka right?. Anyways back to my day, So much happened today and I got to film most of it. Like there is this guy who stands on the beginning of Powel Street with this crazy sign that basically say: "Stop having sex, stop with your whoring cause you will then go to hell". I think it said that Jesus will punish you or something. It was crazy cause he was arguing with 1 religious group that said that Jesus will forgive and everything, and then a 3rd guy came over and were a part of the argue, what the hell, I might as just upload the film so you can see for yourself. I took the BART (train, underground or whatever) to mission 24th, and I went there to film the graffiti on the wall, suddenly this guy came and started talking to me about the walls. He asked me where I was from and he started talking about the History of Norway and russia etc. I will upload clips from that segment to. But while we were like talking this young guy came on skateboard and he was a graffiti artist. So in a way, one of my side project will be about the graffiti scene in San Francisco.
Hollie came back to town so I went to her place and hung out. We then went out to a bar and hung with D.Scott. It was kinda funny, I met this young rapper and as we talked it turned out to be Fillmore Slims son. That was kinda cool. We agreed to do an interview but he wouldn't give me his number, but he saved mine. I hope that he will contact me. Cause the Graffiti part could be a great film to exhibit with the bay area hip hop community film. And even greater would be if I could do a segment with Fillmore Slim (He is an ex-american pimp, Snoop Dogg is going to be playing the role of Fillmore Slim in his next movie. If you still don't know who he is, google him or rent American Pimp). We then went from that bar to the ChaChaCha, but it was closed, so we went to a bar around the corner, a bar called delirium. It was a blast. I came up with this sick theory that Darius has plans for all of us. I mean I make video art, Hollie Stevens is in the Porn industry and D.Scott is a writer... and we all know Darius... does it make any sense? And another thing is that I met Darius and he hooked me up with Hollie, I also met D.Scott through Darius. And we found out that we formed a D (triangle) when we stood at the bars. Hm maybe Darius has like evil plans for us, Like he is Charlie and we're his angels, What is our next ass ignment Darius? ... We ended the night around 1 a.m.

Check this out... really

Zach and I, Bad hairday anyone?
I hooked up with Zach Bardon on couchsurfing.com, What he is doing is that he travels around the U.S and making music with all kinds of musicians. He asked if there were someone in the San Francisco area, so I contacted him. He had a song ready for me to rap on. I wrote some Norwegian lyrics about traveling and sex and rapped in Norwegian. He though it was pretty cool. Other than that I just phoned people around about different interviews, trying to keep a track of time. While telephoning to people, this homeless guy came and said he was a stand-up comedian. I was curious and asked him to do one of his jokes.
It went like this:
"- Do you know why O.J tattooed a picture of his wife? the homeless guy asked
- No! I responded after thinking for a few seconds
- Like that he can beat her in jail."
I offered this man 10 USD if I could do an interview with him and if he could do a stand up routine, so I might meet him on my 10th day (I lost track of days, don't really know what day my 10th day is...)
So I guess by telephoning people, you meet interesting homeless people...

san Francisco day 10
I don't know where to start here, but can jump to the scene where I followed Hollie to complete her halloween shopping. Guess what she is gonna be? hm.. I doubt that you guessed right. You probably were thinking: Clown, well, you're all wrong buddy. She is going to be... maybe you should wait and see. I think I'm going to keep that for myself until after halloween. But the crazy thing about halloween is that we went to this halloween store and there were actually a long line by The Entrance, I mean, come on. I felt a fake dizzyness of drunkness in my head cause this reminded me of a line to a club. Déja vu anyone? We went from there and to a place called chachacha, not the same from day 1, but another one. We had sangria and tapas, Holle introduced me to her favorite 2 things. and it was damn good. We then got picked up by Brad Olsen, one of the beach guys, he is the guy who tried aquivit with Hollie. We then went to the beach where we hooked up with the rest of the beach boys. there were a big fire, weed, alcohol and off course a guitar. We decided to tell a horror story where one starts and goes on for 30 seconds and the next takes off from there. It was funny. I filmed it without getting any sound. That was a shame. We all decided to go to a bar and I totally blacked out, well almost. Hollie and I were pretty drunk. We went to her place where I fell asleep on the couch.

I woke up on the couch not knowing where I were at first. My head felt like empty. I had to really take a deep breath before I realized I had couch surfed at hollies. Hollie came in the livingroom and made me a delicious cup of Chai Latte, and a bowl of fruit, soy yoghurt and müsli. It was heavenly delicious. I went back to the hostel cause I needed to charge the batteries for the camera. Nikita called me and asked if we could meet. I met her and Becky (I will refer them as "the british girls"). Anyway we hooked up, had a coffee and brainstormed on a few projects. We parted real quick cause all of us was kinda busy. I went back to the hostel and charged the last battery. Hollie picked me up and I was suppose to go to this bookstore where she was going to have a reading. She chose to read a scene from one of her porn scripts. Her boss from the magasine "girls and corpses" were also there and did a reading. There were other people performing, like one group made this piece called "sleezy hollow" I think but it kinda looked stupid, the kind of an amateur play. But in a way it was cool, I had necer seen anything like it. The most interesting bout this evening was Hollies costume. She was dressed up as a clown with the craziest wig ever. Imagine Marge Simpson hair but instead of blue it is green, now take that long marge simpso hair and make it an afro, green that is...
Hollie did it again :)

Halloween 2008
Guess what day it is? Haloween. totally cool. I can't wait until I put on my pink suit among other trick or treaters. I had a meeting with Nikita and Becki and had to find some accessories for my costume, like diamond ring and diamond earings. The meeting with Nikita and Becki went well. We are finally going to produce something together. After the meeting I found my missing things in diverse shops and completed my super pink costume. I met up with Hollie and her boss Robert, a pretty cool guy. We went to his hotel room witch is situated 2 min from my hostel. I filmed Hollie while she put on her costume. After that we took a cap to this pre party with free drinks and food. It was great, a big wear house with all kinds of comics. This chinese dude went around serving all kinds of stuff on a plate for us to just take of. I felt like a rich dude at a special event for rich people. But this were only comic fanatics, publishers etc getting there badges for an event that is happening the next day. I guess it is a comic event. But will talk about that on the next blog entry.
We went from the wear house to another bar, we just had a drink here and a drink there in different bars. I met a friend of mine called Liz. I told the others to wait I was just going to say hi, then everyone just vanished. Liz then invited me to this house party. Wild party. Imagine a high school Hollywood movie. Where the parties are wild, people bringing a big ass beer keg when the booze is finished. and beautiful women, hiphop music, intimate booty shaking and weed smoking. It was pretty cool, I partied like all night and it was pretty fucked up walking home with a dirty pink suit the next day. Really looked like a pimp without a hoe. But I got back safe and I am still alive....

Don't let the bed bugs bite
Just to make it clear, before you start reading this day of my blog, you might get offended. So if you're one of those who gets easily offended do not read this blog entry. I have like 2 scary stories to tell, well at least one of them is, so I will start with the scariest one. I woke up in an apartment with only brazilian people living, were they illegal immigrants? who the hell cares, the girls were hot. Anyway, a few days back I felt like my body was scratching, like rashes all over my body, I tough it was an allergic reaction, but then again, why would I have an allergic reaction when the only thing I am allergic to are cats. There is no cats that I know of at the hostel, not in my room anyways. I came back from the brazilians and scratched myself like a junkie. When I got back I kinda talked it over with Darius and sent him photographs and he told me one thing, and one thing only: Bed Bugs!!! My body has been a victim of bed bugs. I googled the word and meaning of bed bugs, I found a picture of a guy who also was a victim of bed bugs, the rashes looked really similar. (look at this: http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1033/567726321_6308d0af18.jpg compare that with the pic of my arm). I informed the hostel and all they said was sorry and moved me to another room. I will talk it over with the manager the day after. I was suppose to film Hollie at a comic con and had to cancel it because of the bugs and craziness over that. here is another creepy thing you should check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfKCcSPCOQo and I have another link/proof or whatever that proves my point that I have been victimized: http://articles.latimes.com/2006/aug/26/local/me-sbriefs26.2 I won't bore you with links anymore, I guess I proved my point. If you are still reading and gets easily offended, do not continue to read, cause here comes the spooky part, or interesting part, or the wild part (you chose your own expression and write it as a comment if you want.).
I hooked up with Nikita (the british artist) and we decided to go as a couple to a sex club situated in San Francisco. I met her around 8 30 p.m. and the club didn't open until 10 p.m. We had a coffee and went to the hostel just hung around until it was time. We went to the bart station to catch a muni cart to Valenzia, and then walk from there to 74 Otis street where the club was situated. On the way we didn't believe our selves, we though to ourselves we're actually doing this, and once on the muni cart there were no turning back. We kinda giggled the whole way and were kinda embarrassed or maybe excited (not in a sexual way). This is a world that we were about to enter witch was unknown to both of us. We arrived at the front door and payed 20 USD each, that is the price you pay when you're a couple or else it is 60 or 80 USD (on fridays and saturdays). We checked our coats and started to walk around, the staff went over the rules with us and said the couples area would open in 10 minutes. We then went to the singles area. The space was surprisingly big. It was kinda empty when we first took the tour on the 1st floor. There were many different "play" rooms, neon lights and a big dance floor with strip poles on a little stage. everything was neon, I guess that is their code/image or whatever. Some of the rooms had several t.v sets where it played porn movies. We passed like maybe 8-10 different settings I guess, and we came to a stairway that went downwards. Once we went down we arrived to this big adult playground, imagine a big cage and in tis cage there were couches, bondage toys, people inside the cage, and people outside the cage. The people inside looked like they were in sex heaven while the people outside the watching in looked like they were prisoners watching out from a prison. The were this one guy standing "behind bars" jerking off in a strange way all naked and outside the cage there were another guy siting there and jerking off also. There were something about them, their faces and the way they did things that will mark my for the rest of my life, or should I say that they will haunt me for the rest of my life. When you pass the cage you walk in a corridor and on one side is the cage and the other side there were like latex beds divided in 3 or 4 rooms. At some point there were people having sex, I believe I saw 4 or 5 people in the same bed playing with each other. One were a drag queen who sucked another guy who played with a girls tits while another one was playing with her pussy (excuse my chose of words but I warned you) the last guy lidded the pussy area with a pocket light. Nikita and I felt very uncomfortable, it was an awkward situation watching other people play with each other, having sex in front of up to 10 people at the same time. A part of me wanted to leave but my curious mind told me to explore more so did Nikitas. We went up to the couples division and saw this couple in their mid/late 40s having a dominatrix show where the man dominated his girlfriend. She did everything he said and played with a dildo. It attracted a lot of viewers and I believe I counted around 7 couples watching them (7 times 2, 14 people), and you could tell that they enjoyed showing off in front off people. I was shocked but couldn't stare away. We moved on and there was this room with couches in every corner, on 2 of the couches there were to men getting head, on the other there were this girl getting head. As the time moved on we saw more and more couples fucking, and more and more people watching, Me and Nikita needed a break and sat down on one of the beds. And then this couple started to fuck in the bed next to us, It was a pretty funny sight, and unrealistic. With the lighting effects, music and all in general it felt like a dream, if it was like a wet dream I am not to sure about that, but I felt like in a dream you woke up from but wanna keep dreaming. It was weird, strange but at the same time interesting. So we decided to go back and check it out again, in a way wake up from this weird dream...
Shocking? Don't say I didn't warn you. If u get easily offended.... DO NOT READ THIS, but you just had to read it ha? ...

I complained about my bed bugs and demanded a refund a t the hostel today. All the manager said was to write down my name and e-mail address at the front desk and I didn't see him for a while after that. Was he hiding? He also told me that I should have told him earlier... Come on. If you were in the situation, would you just assume that the hostel had bed bugs? isn't places where people pay to stay suppose to be clean and bug free?? Since we used the word assume lets look a little closer on that. ASS U ME... well never ASSUME, cause if you do, you make an ASS out of U and ME = ASSUME... so I was being stupid and naive I guess. I hung around the hostel for a while and updated mails and blogs and stuff, telling the crazy story about the night before. Maybe the offended who read it thinks: "You deserve bed bugs negro."
Anyway, I was invited to join Nikita and Becki see them compete in a strip contest. I also had to go to a comic/book con that is called APE. I went to APE with Nicole, who is Roberts cousin and Robert is Hollie Stevens boss. He is the founder and CEO of girls and corpses magazine ( www.girlsandcorpses.com ). He had a stand there. I did an interview with him and filmed Hollie while she was signing magazines and stuff like that.
After that event we went to a chinese resturant where we ate delicious chinese food, probably the best food until now... We then took a Bart to the 24th and Mission (the latino area of San Fran) to see the mexican day of the dead parade. It was pretty awesome, the only thing was that I had heavy bags on me and I was sooooo tired. Couldn't stand straight. We were there for maybe an hour or so and went back to Hollies place. I am currently crashing on her couch right now as I write this blog entry. I was suppose to get my bags from the hostel.. but Have to get it tomorrow...

This is one of those days where it starts out shitty with rainy clouds and windy breeze and I HAVE to go to the hostel and retrieve my luggage from the storage. I could only HOPE that it would stop to rain, but no way, I have to suffer my way through the windy shitty raindrops of San Francisco city. this really sucked. I bough an umbrella on my way to the hostel cause it was to cold and I really wasn't prepared for this kinda weather. I though the bay area would always be sunny and nice and good and warm like to gay guys cuddling. But it isn't. Winter is near and the cold and mist is taking over, and all I have is a jacket in light material and a girls scarf. Anyway, I got my luggage and was suppose to meet up with Nikita who never showed up, It didn't matter to me, I'm am a patient non angry guy so I just got my bart ticket and went towards richmond. I was suppose to get off downtown berkley, but missed it with 2 stops, so had to go all the way back again, So my schedule was really behind. I got there with my suitcase and I finally got rid of it. I took remaining things in my bag and hit the road. Hollie had arranged free backstage tickets to a Diplo show. For those who don't know who he is, go to youtube and search "Diplo block party".. it is so cool.
The funny thing is, the guy who arranged the backstage passes was this cool columbian guy named Justin. Justin and Diplo grew up together and are pretty good friends. Now justin is a porn photographer and videographer, that is where Hollie gets in, Justin was the videoguy for one of Hollies scenes. The first time I heard of Diplo was when my good friend Fred Fidel showed me some of his music videos and block parties online. Pretty cool with the sick hotdog/pizza mannequins. I got a lot of footage backstage and on stage. And what was cool is that Hollie Stevens and Justin put on the mannequin suits and went onstage and danced their asses off. It was pretty funny..
Before the Diplo concert I went to this cheezy corean bar and had a few beers (the price was awesome, 3 dollars a bottle). This bartender really tried to hit on me as soon as she found out that I was making films and documentaries. She really needed a job and said that she can act and all that stuff. But hey, when in Rome, I told her I could make her a star, drank up my drink and when to meet hollie without handing out any sort of number exchange or card or whatever...

Day of the dead

time to get away from the bed bugs
Today we just hung at hollies place and she was so hung over from the day before. I followed Hollie to vote after she felt a little bit better, after that we went to an indian restaurant that she recommended. We came back home and didn't really do much, I interviewed her for 10 minutes about politics and Diplo before we found out who won the election. Obama, off course, won. That was this day

fucked up shaving
Today was pretty strange, I worked mostly on my computer and Hollie went out with her ex. When she got back we were going to go to bondage a gogo, the bondage club we went to in the beginning of my trip. I was going to shave before I went out, and I was suppose to be ready until Hollie got back but I kinda had a little accident. The blade popped off while shaving and fell in to the drain. So I sat there waiting for Hollie to get back with a new shaving device. I looked like a fucked up dude... but anyway, I bought very crappy Vodka for 5 dollars and mixed strong drinks I guess. I was felt really weird after drinking it, not drunk but weird. We arrived at the club after having 3 peeing brakes on the way. We were on the guestlist so I saved 10 USD, the drinks were free. Dean Povey showed up and we had a blast. until... well I blacked out. remember waking up in sitting position on the couch... Weird.. totally.

san Francisco day 18
Hollie Stevens, Mister Torn and Andy
I have never have never felt a real hang over before, until I woke up from the black out. Let me explain how it felt: Shaky, headache, no energy what so ever, whenever I saw the remaining vodka I almost puked. And when I went out in the daylight I felt like a vampire, sensible eyes... really sensible.. Is this a hangover people??
I thanked Hollie for being my "mother" and getting me back to safety and excused my black ass if I comported like black crackhead asking for money. I was innocent, she only told me this funny story that I almost puked in the cab, so one of my hands were on my mouth. Hollie asked if I had to puke and i just gave her the other hand, whatever that means. Maybe I tried to tell her that I am swedish... It was one of those bizzarro experiences, remember waking up not knowing where I were.. State of panic with other words... but fell asleep again pretty quick. Brad "Santosh" Olsen picked us up and we went to baker beach, that was the coolest cure ever invented. Laying down with my mp3 player watching the claire blue sky feeling the breeze take over the headache..
We came back to Santoshes place and I kinda fell asleep. (guess I deserved a day of, been working my ass off everyday.).

san francisco day 20
the kinda sandwich that gives u Orgasm
I kinda took the day off and went to this birthday bash, nothing really happened today except for that Santosh showed me a place where u get a big chinese meal for under 5 dollars, it was better than what u paid for but stil not the best. But great when you kinda don't have much money.. The other restaurants I've been to the fee for a meal is at least 10 USD with tax and u still have to tip them. This was a place where the customers did NOT tip.
speaking of food check out sandwiches

San francisco day 21
Nikita Lobb and Beckie Upton
Brad made me homemade pizza today and Beckie and Nikita came buy to eat with us. It was pretty nice. We then went to Baker Beach where I filmed the girls and interviewed them, and the interview kinda turned into them interviewing each other. As an artist I just let it go with the flow. I think I got 1 hours with them talking. And they're kinda interesting together, funny. Later that day Hollie invited me to go to bad movie day, I really wanted to go, cause they were showing bad star wars rip offs, this time starring David Hasselhoff. Who wouldn't want to see that? come on. I was so sad cause the time I was getting out the door it was already 10 to 8, and the film was starting at 8... Had no chance. But I told Hollie and hopefully will interview her tomorrow. I ended up editing the film with the brits witch I also uploaded on my blog. I am pretty satisfied with the result. After uploading the film I went to bed.. That is basically what happened. Feel that this whole week will be like this. I have 35 USD I can use until friday... Then it is Pay Day...

San francisco day 22
baker beach
Today I woke up and Brad Olsen and I went to one of the parks so that I could film him read for one of his up and coming podcasts. We shot for maybe an hour or so. But before the shooting Brad bought me chinese food for my b-day. We came back home, I imported the tapes and was wondering if I were to celebrate my big day. I though to myself that I won't get far with only 35 USD. So I decided to stay in and did research on mr and mrs Torn since I had arranged an interview with them. Hollie came over for a burrito and we had loads of wine, I also invited Nikita over who never showed up, but that was ok, cause soon as Hollie left i kinda fell asleep.

San francisco day 23
Mr Torn
Cherry Torn
Today was a big day. I went to meet up with the Torns to do an interview with them. The interview about their career in the porn industry went pretty well. Got a lot of stuff and answers. After that we played wii, had some wine and ended up playing basketball on Mr. Torns computer. Mrs Torn made some great tuna fish pasta and garlic bread for supper. It was pretty good. I then took a bus and headed home. Once I got in the door, I sat down and fell asleep in my chair. I will edit a little piece of mr and mrs torn so you can meet them.

Brad, Nitkita, Holly and I went for a road trip and visited different parks. We went to Fort Funston and Lands end. It was another kind of beauty I didn't know existed in San Francisco. It was awesome. There were so many dogs running around that it was kinda cute. People were working as private dog walkers and had up to 15 dogs, (it at least looked like that. I filmed the wildness and will post a Video with all the dogs. I filmed many shots in the different parks. It was pretty beautiful. That was that day, indescribable, had to see it to believe it and I can achieve it by showing you film clips. Coming soon. Another thing that happened today, well, My camera broke.. So I can't take anymore pictures until now. Everything I touch is going to pieces.. Well That is life I guess.
Nikita Lobb, Hollie Stevens and I

it is a music video

san francisco day 25
baker beach
Heinz, Baker Beach
Guess what people..
Today was a baker day, oh yeah. I went to the beach with Nikita and Brad "Santosh" Olsen, we hung out and I was as usual working, filming Nikita having a discussion with Hollie about her career and life. It was a pretty well done discussion. We were at baker beach until about 5 p.m before we headed home to Santosh. We got something to eat and got ready for the first Baker "Party at Sofia healing center". It was arranged by pink revolution witch is a cosy political group. They believe in making love and not hate. The party was a blast, everybody was smoking weed, I went around with my camera and I got butt naked for the first time in front of maybe 100 people, and I was in a sauna that was available. It was a blast and a success. And so was the filming that day, starting to have a lot of footage but I will have to get more. Better to come home with to much rather than to little. So I am filming my ass off, hope I make you proud :)
I took a cab home cause I was so drunk that i didn't know where the fuck I was going but I woke up the next day safe and sane... sane... Sane...

san francisco day 26
baker beach
Well the sun is still shining, it is 75 degrees and we're loving it. I hooked up with Nikita and we headed towards Baker Beach to do an interview with Hollie, but we missed her. She had left when we arrived. So, Nikita and I decided to shoot a music video. We went to the bunkers and started to shoot. I think we had like 1.5 hours before total darkness. The funny thing is that when we finished shooting, suddenly there were several "independent video makers" Kinda funny what effect a pro camera and sexy dancers have on people. But it is kinda fun to film all kinds of crazy shit.
Later that night me and "Santosh" went to this opening where they exhibited the top 50 book covers this year. It I filmed him and I am going to do an interview with him within the next 2 weeks. He is one of Hollies good friends. He is a writer so documenting him at the book event is perfect. We then moved on to an opening. The artists name was Chor Boogie (http://www.chorboogie.com/). His style was spray can on canvas but in an amazing way. I just had to film it. in front of one of the walls there was a frame that hung maybe 20-30 cm in the lose air with no pic/paintings in it. I just though what the hell is this.. While I was filming I saw 2 halfnaked girls with spray paint on their body looking like Chors canvases. They had Roses in their hands and walked slowly towards the frame. They ended up doing a performance behind the frame and became the painting. Sometimes they went out and started to mingle with the audience. It was pretty cool. I managed to film it and to get an interview with the artist. We then went back home and I hooked up with Nikita and we had late night pizza..
Groovy

San francisco/San Diego day 27
Murrugun the mystic, Mae$trO, Hollie Stevens and xylitol sweetbread
I was suppose to meet Christina Lewis today for an interview, for those who don't know who she is, well she is the person who does spiritual clowning, find your inner clown stuff. I was suppose to meet her at 9 30 A.M but ran a little late cause I had to pack my bags. I was leaving Santoshes pad and walking around with 2 bags on my shoulders back and front, I also had the camera bag and a heavy tripod and it was fuckin over 80 degrees out. When I got to the clown studio I rang the bell, nobody opened. I was kinda in a relief since I walked my ass off to get there and nobody was opening. I though to myself: "Stop clowning"...
I knew that I was suppose to do an interview before they started and after they had finished. So I took the chance and went to the post office, had to send an important mail to one of the exchange schools, the one in Berlin. So I did stuff while the clock was tic tocking. I then went to a coffee shop and waited until 1 50 P.M
When I got back at the clown studio Christina gave me "the look" and said with "the tone" we can't film today cause somebody else is going to occupy the space. I asked if we could do it another time. She then said (again with "the tone") Sure, you have my e-mail...
I got a little bit pissed and just left the place. I went back to the coffee shop and hung for a few hours. I then hooked up with Fury 93 and interviewed him about his graffitti work.. It was interesting this time. I will hook up with him again and he will show me more off his works.
I then went to the airport and met up with Hollie. She actually passed the control with a pocket knife and mais in her purse.. So she could hijack the plane if she wanted to, with a knife in one hand and mais in the other, that would have been a funny movie scene except her dressing up as a clown.
I interviewed her on the plane. We landed in San Diego and a sideshow artist who calls himself "murrugun the mystic" (you can check him out at www.myspace.com/murrugun ). We went over to his pad and watched a porn movie called "long jean silver" .. It is a girl who had to get rid of her leg as a kid, and the amputated leg looked like an alien who was sniffing its way into any hole and penetrating it. It was a bizzarre twilight zone experience... I think that David Lynch made this film before he started to make hollywood movies. It was that bizzarre. I fell asleep pretty fast since I was working on the music video until 4 in the morning.
Well when I wake up we're going to the desert... So the blog won't be updated until I get back to San Francisco.
well... until then... have a good day/night and hope you enjoy reading my blog.

San Diego/Santa Carlita day 28
San Diego, United States
Hollie Stevend and Mae$trO
We went for a roadtrip from San Diego to L.A, a 3 hours drive. The trip went pretty fast. We arrived on the set and the heat was at its place. Unbareble. Nothing really happened the first night except for waiting and doing nothing. I filmed Hollie while she went trhough the set, pretty cool shoot since it was the first time she saw it.
I greeted all the other clown pornstars and a few other b-role actors. I tried to party with them but with all the editing from the night before it just was to hard so I went early to bed, witch was the front seat in a RV... Felt pretty good.... Not...

Los Angeles day 34
Los Angeles, United States
Christopher Dennis and Mae$trO
I woke up first at 6 A.M, guess it was an habit from the waking ups in the desert. I fell asleep again and this time woke up at 11. Haavard and I went to the groceries store and bought breakfast and coffee, ate some bagels and went into Hollywood. We went to Hollywood boulevard and search for the characters in the documentary confessions of a super hero. I found the main character from that documentary Mr. Christopher Dennis a.k.a Superman. Took a few pictures with him and I saw he had the dvd for "sale". We asked how much he sold it for, he said 30 bucks with his signature. That was just to much, it costs like 2 USD on amazon.com. I also took a picture with sponge bob, a brother from L.A in a suit. He kept repeating: "i didn't know there were brothers in Norway, nice to see that." So I was kinda flattered. We went to another place and had a barbecue chicken pizza, Kinda strange, some of the slices had a lot of chicken and not enough sauce and other had to much sauce and a couple of chicken pieces. I guess the food was o.k. We came back home, had a couple of beers and went back out again to a freaky bar called the rainbow. It was a cool place with a lot of crazy looking people. Suddenly this awesome car came along and a old guy with a cat on his shoulder came out. He had on a purple sparkling suit with black pants, on the sides of the pants were some purple sparkling stripes. He went around from table to table doing card tricks, so I guess he was a retired magician or something. On the way home we went to the gas station to fill gas. I was tipsy. Suddenly this blonde girl came and asked for a ride, we rode her home and found out her name was Maya Macpherson. Haavard asked her if she was related to Elle Macpherson as a joke. She replied: "she is my aunt". Mayas father was elles big brother. We went home, I watved an episode of Dexter and fell asleep before the episode finished...

Los Angeles / San Francisco day 35
the 27 year old Hooters virgin
I woke up around 9 a.m and worked a plan on what was next for my documentary. So I did a lot of writing and researching. Made my bagel and sat mostly in front of the computer writing all kinds of stuff. This went on until about 5 p.m. Then Haavard and I went for a ride to take some pictures. Took pictures of him and his car. We then went to Hooters since I was a hooters virgin. We had some chicken burgers and fries with cheddar cheese dip.. I think our waitress name was Megan. Well as an Norwegian celebrity I got picture taken with her and some of her personal info witch was cool. We went to the airport and I took my flight to Oakland. Then I took the bart bus to the Bart station. Got a message from Hollie, she was at Mr and Mrs Torns place. I arrived there and they were all drunk, I had a few drinks and Hollie past out. Woke her up after a few hours and went home. That was that. I am going to start shooting again tomorrow.

after (disapointed maybe?)
before
I met Nikita and she was feeling really bad from 3 days before. I guess she had been partying for a great while. I though I had the perfect cure. We went to an Irish Pub where we had a bloody mary each. Tis was around lunch time.. hey don't judge, it was 5 dollars for a strong bloody mary. Anyway, after the bloody mary part we went to this sushi place and I ordered some random pieces. I though I knew how to chose sushi witch I didn't. Did a few good choices but mostly bad. We had a laugh. Like at one point I said that one of the sushi bits tasted like clitoris. Well, I guess it is an internal joke between me and Nikita so Fuck you if you find it stupid. Out of the blue I ordered a bottle of Sake, and we kinda drank it up and got in a good mood for a while, went to a coffee shop and tried to brainstorm on a few projects we were going to do together, didn't happen because Nikita felt ill again. I went over to Brad's place and hung out for a while since I was in his neighborhood. I then kinda felt going to a titty bar and Hollie called. Ended up helping her with some stuff for her room, witch was cool. Better than a titty bar... I guess..

Hollie Stevens as a zombie
I was suppose to go to Brad' "Santosh" Olsens place for an interview about Hollie but he pushed the rendez vous for a day, instead, I hooked up with Nikita and we went to a clinic where Nikita had tested herself for STDs. It was a long day, with alot of waiting. Before we arrived at the clinic we passed by this gallery called 1AM and that gallery is worth checking out. They focus on street art inspired stuff. We then went to the shabbyest pizza place ever and had a cup of coffee and we filmed Nikitas Character: Edie who has been working as a stripper and sold her body at work. I interviewed her. One thing in San Fran is that when ever people see us with a camera they start talking none sence, While we were filming, this guy started talking about "their government" out of the blue and looking at the camera which wasn't even pointed at him. All I ever though was "muther fucker... witch government?" We then went to this clinic for STDs and needle exchange. It was basically run by gays and drags. Kinda funny. We got acupuncture and Nikita was really sensitive to the needles. She actually believed that the person giving us this treatment didn't really know what she was doing, and I told Nikita that it was the clinics way of giving us aids. But anyway, I then went to the academy of at and met a girl named Marit from Norway. She was super cool. We first sat in a room with master students who showed their master works witch was fair enough. We then went to this crazy bar with this crazy drunk bartender who looked like a combination of Will Ferrell and John C. Riley. Hilarious. We talked mostly about art and martial arts.. It was great fun. We shared a cab home and departed our first meeting witch would never had happened hadn't it been for Kamilla Skrinde, So thanks Kamilla... :)

New Video

Brad Olsen
I went to interview Brad "Santosh" Olsen and I was running like 3 hours late. When I arrived at his place the news was on. They had bombed like 6 or 7 places I believe in India, almost at the same time. A group of people also went manhunting for British and U.S citizens and shot them on the spot. This shit that was going down was crazy. I couldn't believe my ears and eyes. Also in Thailand something happened. Protesters were holding an airport hostage or something. It was wild. I interviewed Santosh and it went very well, I also filmed him talking about his books and an event he arranges 1 a year. I will make a 2-3 min long segment that he can use on his website or whatever he choses. After the interview Nikita wanted to call this porn guy for this add saying: "make Discrete XXX movies and earn up to 2000?" I really like the questionmark behind the add. She called via skype so she could record the conversation. Santosh kept saying that you will get the answering machine witch she did. But she left a pretty cool message as her character: Edie.
I then went home to Hollies and prepared for a meeting with this sideshow guy called Andy. He delivered a good story about his fear for clowns, and he is also Hollie Stevens friend: "the queen of clownporn" makes any sence, It was hilarious... A well done interview. I went home that night kinda tipsy and I fell asleep on the couch...
good night suckers..

thanx giving
Happy Thanx giving suckers...
Yeah you got it. today was thanx giving, my first thanx giving ever. I kinda thanked myself for getting all this great food, and meeting these new cool people. I haven't eaten this much since I almost starved to death.. like never. Well what would you do if you were on a table with all these different kinda plate: Turkey, stuffing, sweet potato pie, biscuits, double baked potatoes, gravy, bean with sauce and cheese. Desert please: Pumpkin Cheese cake and pumpkin pie. We then went to a private party at with the hippies where Nikita got hit on by this weird dude who looked like a simpson character. He went and introduced himself and gave her a big and looong hug. He then repeatedly said: "You are giving me so much positive energy" Nikita was thinking, "I am trying to give you bad energy". He also mumbled about her visiting him to his acres of vinyard or something and tried to kiss her. Well, good luck buddy. I met up with Marit once again and I went to get her in the Mission. She wouldn't dare going by her self since there had been a shooting right outside the house they were celebrating thanx giving... Glad that wasn't mine thanx giving. But I was cool enough to pick her up. We went downtown and hit a few bars and talked. Kinda funny, this is the 2nd time meeting her and we refuse to stop talking to each other. Kinda cool. I think I took the night bus round 5 AM. Lots of wirdos on those buses after 12 PM...
Thank you for feeding this young, student, no money earning negro.
forever thankful

Hollie came back home today and I think she was happy to be back in San francisco. We talked about how it was where ever she were. I was expecting some money and my banks internet system was down so I didn't get anywhere with that. I was broke (had 5 USD or something) to live on until monday (today is friday). Hollie was suppose to meet up with a guy so she invited me for a drink at a cozy bar that hadn't changed since the 20s I guess. We had a few whiskey coke. Awesome. Hollies guy showed up and he treated us 2 more drinks each for what I am really thankful. Hollie and her guy left me by myself and I went to meet up with Marit, I took the 33 bus towards the Mission and went off on 14th and Mission. Then I walked 26 long ass blocks to aprox 30th Mission. I arrived at the knock out and met Marit with a few of her friends. We talked about the concept clownporn and one of Marits friends, who is also her classmate, thought it was a great concept. She sent her teacher a text message and asked if I could be a guest teacher. This was like 2 A.M and he totally responded yes. So the upcoming Monday I was suppose to be a guest teacher. Nice. I took the night bus home and saw some creepy people as usual. I am kinda used to it now...

clowning
This was a weird and creepy day. I met up with Nikita and Elliott witch was great. We had some junk food and had a great time.Then I had a meeting with Ron, Hollie Stevens stalker, who is playing tennis every week end. I waited for the 44 bus and it didn't arrive when it was suppose to... Twice. I was running really late. Like an hour late. When I finally arrived I saw him in the park playing tennis with a friend. I filmed Ron and his friend play, and made them sign release forms. I then interviewed Ron about Hollie. I am not saying anything on this blog about that interview. Wait till the documentary comes out.
I then headed back and tried to put on clown make up. Hollie and I were suppose to go to the bohemian carnival as clowns. I put on the make up myself at first and when I was done Hollie said: "What the fuck were you thinkin" So she made an extreme clown make - over. Well the photo speaks for them selves.
We both were pretty tired so we decided not to go after all. I took a shower and fell asleep... fast...

mission area
Today is Sunday. I stayed in and edited all day, I was also preparing what I was going to say. I then met up with Marit and we went to a thai noodle place. I had soup and she had fried banana. After that we went to a strip club witch was sooo boring. I don't know what it was but everything seemed so wrong.
Well that was my sunday here in beautiful San francisco. Took the night bus back home and fell asleep...

is it to late?
I finished the editing for the presentation today. Cause today is the big day so I had to be prepared. I also moved from Hollies Pad over to Santoshes, Brad Olsen that is. I took the bus to the institute of art and met up with the teacher. I also greeted the class, introduced myself and started to present my work. It went quite well and I felt kinda nervous. But that kinda went over with time. I then checked out Marits video work. I gave her advice and hope it was helpful to her. I went home and nerded infront of my computer and went to bed early.

the kinky life of married pornstars:

Today was the day I did the first official Hollie Stevens interview. We talked about her childhoos for the most. Other than that I also filmed an hour footage of Chor Boogie witch was also a success... Not much more happened this day. But I missed talking to Nikita ... Hopefully I will visit her in January.

Today was a day where I sent postcards back home and a a christmas present for my sister. loads of cheetos;)
other than that I waited for Hollie to text message me for the second interview. She didn't make it witch is understandable. She had to prepare for Gidget Geins memorial. I went to Bondage a go go to meet up with Danny. The bar tender at Bondage a go go who is a friend of Hollies. He called me and cancelled the meeting so I got drunk all by myself and met a guy named Bryan. We talked about the usual, clown porn and stuff. I then fucked with some of the goths mind. Told them that I was suppose to make a documentary about the Goth scene but I wasn't sure if it was worth it so I asked them to convince me.
Let me give you all a few examples. One of them got really offended when I called her an Emo, She said there were a big difference between them. She said that Emos were sad people, while goth were happy.
so much fun happened that night. And I was all alone ;)
how cool is that+??

I currently stayed at Brads house. I had an appointment with a girl I met the week. She was this girl who used to work at kink.com. Her job was a regular desk job at one of the biggest, if not the biggest bondage/kink companies in the world. Some of her tasks were to watch the films they were shooting and write down the dialogue so the japanese can translate it to japanese. So she was used to watching hardcore porn. I then found out that she had a big fear of clown. I interviewed her about her fear and I made her watch a scene from clown porn filming her expression for her fear of clowns. It was great and I can't say no more because I don't want to reveal to much. I ended up spending some time with this girl. She was so cool to talk with. When I was done with her I went back to Brads and relaxed for a bit.
My second interview was going to be with Kay two, a graffitti artist and artist. When I met him at the rendez-vous point, I found out that he was toooo drunk. He couldn't stand straight, chased asian girls whilde doing the nazi salute and tagging. It was funny and all happened so fast. Then he suddenly vanished. I took the bus back home and fell wuickly asleep that day.

meet beat manifesto
Hollie came back home today and we did our 2nd interview, this is probably the nr 2/3. I got a lot of nice answers but want to know so much more, I decided to brainstorm on new stuff for the 3rd and last interview. After this interview we went to a concert/live djing show with a group called meet beat manifesto. They play and have stuff on big screens where the images goes in sync with their music. It was pretty cool. before the concert we went to have something to eat, and drink. We then purchased some cranberries and vodka and got home to a full house. Well, her roommate had some boring bourgeois ass friends over who were so boring... worse storytelling ever. F eks:
- "I used to steel cars when I was younger"...
Hollie and I kinda opened our ears and we both though this can be interesting.
then the girl continued:
- "well it was my parents car"
It was so lame. Then Jesse came over, a porn photographer. He was a pretty cool guy. I liked him a lot. He joined for some Cranberries and vodka and we talked shit about the roommates.
He then drove us to the meet beat manifesto show where I met Hollies ex husband. He was also a cool dude. We left the show and continued to a place and hooked up with Justin. It was funny at that bar. I was to drunk to talk and tried to hit on a group of women. It was retarded. I was so drunk that I didn't know that Justins place was right next to the bar, so I insisted on going home to Hollie. I walked round in circles and tried to find the place by not knowing where I was going. I actually walked for over an hour. I remember looking on my cell and it was around 6 A.M.

Hollie Stevens with a magic drink
I met up with Steve Leyba around 3 30 P.M. We did an interview and it was great. Really love this guy. Steven is an artist. He is the kind of guy who screams: " FUCK YOU AMERICA!!!" in a National Park with a lot of people there. He insisted on doing the interview behind the fence of a national statue just to get shit on tape if the park rangers came along. I got about 30 min of footage with him. We went together to kay two s pad and he told me that he didn't remember seeing me the night I was suppose to interview him. I left K-2 pad and headed over to fillmore street and bought some afro american hair products for my mom. I then took the bart to downtown berkley and went to Maris pad where I was crashing for the night
I crashed there cause my suitcase is there. Now I could get a hold of my suitcase before I go back home witch is soonish. I met some of maris neighbors and we went to this party and played a stupid and boring game. I just wanted to sleep. When we finally went home from that crappy party I couldn't sleep. I then watched a film before I fell asleep.

Lake Tahoe day 49
South Lake Tahoe, United States
This was the first day when I woke up in the mansion on Lake Tahoe. This place is amazing, and beautiful. The mansion was huge and could fit up to 18 people in it with many bedrooms and lovely kitchen. My assignment was to shoot the houses and make videos that could upload on the internet. the plan was to shot 4 houses 1 day and edit the videos the second day. The plan did not at all go as planned. It went so slow that I didn't even manage to shoot 1 house. I was kind of hoping to follow the schedule and avoid stress. Not much more happened except for the other guys watched American football and I was working on my semestrial school assignment. I wrote about 3 pages and went to bed early that night. Beautiful place but kinda boring at first.
