    i figured it out with my super math skills!! Foe is a senior in highschool!!!

    my story.
    i was visting family in australia multiple years back and as we were sitting in the bus my mom made the comment 'these seats remind me of graffiti'
    they were grey with colorful marks on them.
    i had SO much trouble remembering the word. i was the first work i couldnt remember.
    so then this spring i was visiting again in australia and i noticed the massive amount of graffiti and taking note of the tags on the street
    i would try to spot throw ups, bombs and peices on construction sites on the way to visit people. i really liked bombs ans throw ups and pieces, (i didnt know what they were called so i called them 'real graffiti' and tags 'bad graffiti') so near the end of the trip i tried to take a couple of pictures of graffiti. I had also been toying around with fancy letters and such while i had been there. i made one that had said 'DNA' i really liked this one. so when i got back i went skiing and saw a piece on a fun box that i really liked. So then i made a fun box for my back yard and tried 'graffitiing' it. it was shitty, and it was a first attempt. then i got a Scion magazine that had information on HAZE from NYC. i saw he had a shoe box with stencil letters on it. so i made a stencil saying TAZE, because it sounded like a good tag because it sounded like HAZE. i made a piece that said TAZE that i really liked. then my dad was still in Australia and my mom was in Texas, so i was on my computer and was googling graffiti in images and just looking at graffiti flix. so i went to a spray painting class in the Art Students Luege with an ex-tagger during the summer. he was conviced i was a tagger(witch i wasnt at the time). i made a couple of nice pieces with this chick. so then i toyed around with graffiti effects. and then i googled graffiti again and found Bombingsciene and i ordered some caps and montana. then in october when my mom was in NYC with her sister i came back on to bombingscience and found the forum, registered, got serious into graff, sketched and practiced, and became a post-whore(haha). now i also spend every second i am in a car looking for graff. thank you bombingscience, you have enlightend me. so here i am.
