crazy.
for those who don't know, I'm down at SMG's headquarters in East London, South Africa. We're in the last stages of the DVD's production, working SO incredibly hard and putting in a TON of hours. It's 17:45 now and most of the offices are empty and the others have gone home, GUESS who's still working?! :) It's all good though, I'm in the groove over here, LOVING working here to finish the production up. Strangely enough I seem to work way more efficiently and creatively here. Might be because we're only a few kilometers from the beach :) Fo shizzle.
Aaaaah, almost forgot, NEW VLOG! :) check it outttttt yo:
As you guys will see the DVD will ship on the 11th of November. So, on that day, your DVD will make it's way to you, in whichever shipment method you chose :) The DVD is being replicated and shipped from the USA (as are the hoodies and shirts) so the Americans will probably have their copy before I have mine.. grrrr :)
Like I said, working harder than I EVER have, it's definitely hard times. Handling the production on a project this big has teally taken its toll on me, but I'm hanging in there :) The comments and messages keep me going. I know that sounds seriously corny :) but NOTHING motivates me more than reading some comments on YT or reading the messages you guys send and post on the Forum. Lately I've also definitely needed motivation, the weeks of work and sleep deprivation is something I haven't experienced before.
That said, this journey is unbelievable. While I'm busy editing the documentary, I keep realising how insane this whole story has been :) It makes me MONSTER nervous to think I'm telling my life story, and putting it on a DVD for the world to see.. this isn't a made-up story, it isn't fiction, or a made-up and fake Hollywood story. It's my life, as it exists, and the thought of possibly SO many people getting a peek into that.. it only hit me a while ago :) You guys aren't strangers, I've come a VERY long way with some of you, which puts it in a different light. But I'm a pretty personal guy, and definitely equally nervous as I am excited for the release date :)
Back to work for me, going for a braai at Jason's house later on (a braai is the manly version of a Barbeque..) so looking super forward to that.
Hope you guys dug the VLOG :) I found it INCREDIBLY uncomfortable, makes me cringe just to think about it, haha.
And keep well, speak to you soon!
SO stoked to record a new YouTube series after the DVD has been launched.. finishing one of those productions will be absolute CHILD's play after this monster project :)
Much love!

PS,

i just wanted to say how much of an inspiration you have been to me. I watch your videos everyday, so much that i even put some on my ipod and try to play same of the things that you play. Although i fail epicly, it is still fun. I just wanted to say what an inspiration you are to me and how your sense of humor is frickin' awesome (BOOYA) :p
God Bless

P.S. i like your accent, your hair rocks and you should change your name so people can actually pronounce it :p
