New Benji Blog!

Sorry if I don't credit anyone for this blog. (Besides b-man hee.) I haven't checked any of the recent comments yet. :P

NEW TOP 10 ON-THE-GO!!!!
Current mood: dorky

Hey Yall...Im too busy for life.....but i have my new top ten for the week....ill slow down in a week or two...for like a day...im just constantly booking myself...grateful for the amazing work!!!

here they go...


top 10 cool benji things of the week:


10. starting the GREY SWEAT PANTS CLUB...the fabric in grey sweatpants...nd im talking the cheap-os btw...has a different consistancy than the rest of the colors...and in grey i mean dark grey...not light eighties grey. all sweatpants are GREAT!!! but grey sweatpants are different....Rita calls them sweatPANTS!

9. Saying the Phrase: "Oh sweet sunshine!" but you have to say it like so "OHHHH
Sweet SunCHINE!!!!" its just cooler like that.

8. as people on cell phones walk past you while you're walking past them....speak very boldly to them as you swiftly walk by and say " I was on TV!!!!" its fun

7. its cool to understand that sometimes we need "me time" and we're not being selfish for it. im planing my ery first real...by myself...knowone knows where im at vacation.....it might be next year...but its gonna happen...i might just lock myself in my apartment and not tell anyone. hide my car and turn off all lights!

6. real estate investing...OH YEAHA!

5. when you're envious of someone for wearing something cool or for having something you don't remember this one thing " THEY POOP...AND THEY'RE POOP SMELLS LIKE POOP...AND THAT"S GROSS!!!"

4. the song " I like the rain the most" by Joe purdy..and basically all his music.

3. knowing that a music video with west coast swing in it is number in almost all corners of the world....pretty darn cool....

2. SWAZZ...its my own style of dance that im starting to teach...i smell a DVD for my solo dance crown a brewing....

1. Farting...you know sometimes...when you're all tense and stressed..and maybe you didnt like your food...and you know that everyone does it...so why not let it out loud and proud every once and a while eh? i admit it...there...id like to see if any of you are also proud of your passing heritage....that its okay to break wind. just as long as you're not putting people down wind from it.....lol man im nuts...

love yalll a reall blog is coming asap...also new coolio pictures coming very soon!!! they are tiiiiight!!!

goodnight...

I Have An Announcment To Make

Hey guys, I've been putting this off for a while now, but I suppose it really should be said.

By now, I'm sure you've noticed that the bulk of the posts over the last month or two have all been Taylor's. In fact, due to my riggorous study schedule, some of you more recent readers only know her, and not me. However, to those of you who remember the Golden Days of Tayoose, when our hearts still believed that our Beloved Benjelle were having a torrid affair, when none of the original Benjelle Familia had jumped ship, when we spent all our free time searching all the sites we came across for videos, pictures, and gossip... I owe it to you to make this official.

By now, you've probably guessed that, for the time being, I am leaving this humble blog I began, and leaving it in the more-than-capable hands of Co-Owner Taylor, my lovely Pumbaa. I doubt many of you will care all too much (It seems as though nearly all of you would rather Taylor have full charge, anyway), but I will be coming back for those who do. I'm just taking a break for a few months... Most likely until I get out of school in late May. I plan to stop in periodically before that time, as I have been doing, but I probably won't post very often (There isn't really anything of any interest right now other than Benji's blogs and pictures, anyway, and Taylor gets to those before I do because, due to the time difference - We pretty much live across the country from each other - she gets home before I do).

Just to give you a vague reason for this (Other than those two points I have already made): I go to a college prep highschool, so I pretty much have to constantly be doing homework, and I have a whole slew of personal problems that have been progressively building up throughout the year. It's just too much to juggle.

Just know that I love you all (ESPECIALLY my original Benjelle Familia, though many of you have long since departed), and it's been really hard for me to come to this decision.

Love to all as I sign off for a while...

~ Moosey ~

yay tranjelldi!

I don't think that this video got posted before. Or maybe it did......I really don't know. :/ but I do know that alex and billy fought! ahh. And thanks to omcraleigh for the video! =]

CELEBRATE YOUR FLAWS!!!
Current mood: optimistic

Howdy Guys! im Gonna Be Two Busy in the next couple of days to actually blog...so i decided to do my weekly blog about my TOP 10 today at 2 am. I just got back from a photo shoot in Newport Beach for Image magazine...Ill let you know when its out...its models are myself, and a very special someone that you all know VERY WELL.

Life is crazy, but GREAT! Im loving my work and the challenges at hand. I have great people in my life right now that I know God put them there for a reason. Dancing is so much fun and I love training and teaching and performing...my foot is feeling much better. not going full full out...like benji:BRITE crazy on it yet...but i can definatley get by and im hoping to go full out by the end of the week. Ive been doing a lot of choreography lately and its been some of the best stuff i feel that Ive been inspired to do, so thats a good sign that thru all the classes i teach and take and the new art projects im doing are rubbing off! Im a firm believer in leanring and acquiring as much knowledge in ANYTHING to make me a better and more understanding person and dancer.

Okay but today, the Top Ten of the Week might just make some people who fantasize about lil' ol' me think twice.

Today, I'm pointing out TEN PHYSICAL FLAWS that i have that Ive learned to like about myself and laugh at as opposed to hate myself for them!!! We all have em' somewhere or somehow...here's a very select few of the plethora I have!!! ;P



10. My BIG HEAD: its big! i was born sunny side up and the doctors pulled me out. on my newborn pics i had the huge E.T. head thing going so my folks put a hat on me...baseball hats usually never fit...to this day i always wear odd hats...its not because my head is shaped like ET anymore, just stuck to it which caused me to be a lil more creative in what i wear...hense my big head helped me to wear unique stuff...

9. My CROOKED KNEES: my knees are slightly inverted more than normal knees....so to appear that they are normal, Ive always had to dance more turned out then anyone...just to look regular...which has caused my to be able to show turn out, even though i never knew the importance of it in swing dancing...but the there a big importance to it in solo dancing which i have embraced recently...so cool blessing in disguise!

8. my BUBBLE BUTT; yeah yeah...I always hated it that I didnt fit into pants as easliy as some...but the BENJOOTY's cushioning as helped prevent serious injury from the likes of Christina Aguilera and Tyra Banks!!! so yeah big bonus!!!

7. My CHICKEN WINGS: I have extremely flexible shoulders...i can hold a soda can with em when im free of injury and knots. Some say it makes guys look weakly and hunched...I can inflate them out so far that it looks like i have pretty worked out latts..as well as i can puff my chest and extend the wings and it looks like i have a barrel chest...very good for paso doble, and or for freaking out friends with a lil diddy i call "dead bird" hahahahha

6.My Crooked NOSE: yeah so from looking at me straight on...you cant really tell my nose is crooked...but if you look from under me...my nose goes completely in a 20 degree angle to the right...its kinda funny! i think its cool. i dont think if i was to have a perfect face and be proportionate in perfection that i wouldn't feel the need to be real and like me in the inside and be a good man to a good lady and/or try to dance so much and just get chicks, and also by it sticking out more than normal i have more room to smile...lol im down with that!

5. my POOFY STOMACH: sure I have an eight pack at times...but the funny thing is...that i breathe in and for most the air is locked in the chest...mine goes down to my stomach...so i can stick my stomach out like a 9 month old mother with triplets...its kinda cool to do it once again for friends, belly dancing hehe, and shakira imitations!!!

4. HERBIE and KIRBY: My GIANT BIG TOES: Yes...my two big toes are absolutely bigger than my other toes by a long shot. they are twins except KIRBY has bad luck and has two scars on him and was rcently sprained...but hEALS FAST...my buds still make fun of my HERBIE and KIRBY, but hey...the wider the better...they help my spin my butt off and balance a lot better...plus they are so long and big i can fold them over and walk on the knuckle of them..even jump...once again cool for scaring friends and such.

3. My TEETH: I had the most horendous time having my braces as a teen. I had them on for 5 years, and they were never done...my ortho never finished the job and did a rotten half way point to add to the fire. I had them taken off in protest...I just didnt care anymore. But oddly enough...they had slid kinda together in a organized fashion during my mission. The jawline is messed up. When i take a bite out of a hamburger the lettuce stays half way between being eaten and not...my top and bottom rows of teeth dont touch till you get to my molars. its hilarious...but its helped my bust out the "apple bite" smile when performing...hense adding a lil uniqeness to my facial expressions...lol!!!

2. part 2: MY SMILE: you know...i dont know if i have "A SMILE" ...more like 20 of them...so yeah they vary all the time but its cool. I used to hate my smile. I thought it made me look ugly..now its my prefered weapon of choice! I now like and welcome that I have a gummy smile...most teeth bleaching commercials use HUGE smiles...so thats cool...unique is good! Also, one side of my smile goes down at the dimple, the other goes up...coolness because my dad's smile goes up, and my mom's curves down...and i have both...i take after both i guess!!!

1. MY PAWS: okay...Ive always hated my hands...I could never be a hand model...i have stubby fingers and big palms...which my mom since birth has called my PAWS...and when i was younger, if i tried to hold them into a cup shape to hold MandMs or water or something...i had so much pudge there that they rolled off em!!! that was like till i was 12!!! lol...and although i hated it then...telling that story to someone when i dating while were holding hands, always makes their hearts melt...oh yeah...i pimp it hardcore!!! hehehehhe





So yeah, in closing I believe there's always a WHY and reason to ones imperfections or flaws...they make us hman and beautiful and human and unique. Dimples are concidered awesome by so many people...angel kisses they call them...but in reality they are a birth defect in the formation of the face...coolness!

Well that pretty much sums it up....CELEBRATE an imperfection or two here...or ten whatevs!!! cant wait to read them!!! Also I encourage people who may be having issues with how they look...find the reason behind the why.

Much Love, God Bless,

Benji




-Taylor :P

thnx nonerz!

Hi it's Nony!

Here's some stuff from twop.com.

I was at the Entyce workshop this weekend with Tyce, Donyelle, Heidi, Benji, Natalie and also Chris Jones (a hip-hop dancer from You Got Served). Allison and Ivan were supposed to be there, but they said Alli is doing High School Musical 2 and Ivan also had some other commitment.

Anyway, they had a Q & A with the dancers and they were asked who their favorite judge was. They pretty much all had nice things to say about Nigel. They said even though his comments could seem harsh, they knew that Nigel was trying to give them constructive advice. Also, they said he was much sweeter off camera.

As for the workshops - Benji and Heidi taught a 'swing jazz' workshop. It was a dizzingly fast combo to a My Chemical Romance song. By they way, props to Benji for being a real trouper. His foot was in a cast, he had fallen and injured it while teaching a class a couple days ago. He could have easily dropped out of teaching the workshop, but he forged ahead - plus he even performed in the teachers' recital at the end of the day, with a swing routine that he carefully choreographed around his injury. And during the Q & A, he said he was trying to live up to his title of America's Favorite Dancer. Benji said he was taking even more classes now than he did before the show, to get even better and more versatile. That's why I voted for him - that kind of attitude, dedication and caring about the audience really impressed me and still does.

Natalie taught a contemp routine to a slow song and it was pretty. Chris Jones did hip-hop (and he's a fantastic dancer, by the way). Donyelle taught 'street jazz', it was hip-hop but with some jazz moves. She was absolutely the best teacher there. She broke down every move carefully and the class did very well keeping up. Tyce taught a Broadway routine to Christina Aguilera's 'Candyman'. Benji is dancing with Christina in the vid of that, as we know. But that vid was very retro 40's swing stuff - jive/lindy hop. Tyce's routine had a couple of jive kicks in it, but otherwise was more of a jazz/pop thing with a little urban feel, more like the kind of stuff you see in a typical music video. Donyelle took Tyce's class and he had her dance solo to it, she was great.

I found a bunch of videos of Travis, Ivan, Allison and the oh so pimped Jamie teaching and dancing at NYCDA this year. They're really good, so I thought I'd share.
Travis's Combo with Jamie assisting. Done to Sinking Feeling by Roisin Murphy and I'm obsessed with it.
Travis's Solo
Allison's Solo Amazing.
Travis, Allison and Jamie doing Travis's combo.
Allison and Ivan Hip Hop I can;t find them in the video, it's the combo they taught, with everyone on the floor.






-Taylor :P


YAY Allison is going to be in HSM2!!

omg. trivan.

hahaha!
Trivan is like third on my couples list. Benjelle. Travelle. Trivan. Donivan.

OMG! Thankyou Ray :)

mwaha. Ivan was about to pull out a shank when the music messed up. XDD

7 seconds "iii just wanna love you baby" yeahyeahyeah Travis was totally saying that to Ivan, and Ivan is all "heckyes you can love me." Then Let's Get it On starts playing. hehehe. And then Moose comes out with a guitar and starts singing Wonderwall...and then Trivan get it on while candles burn in the background. umm. yeah, too much wonderwall. =]







-Taylor :P

MY BOTTOM 10 THINGS of the WEEK...lol
Current mood: creative

Okay so i thought I'd switch it up a bit...but b4 you go reading on...make sure you check out my new photography label "CLK'DbyBNJI" you might see a few of them floating around on mine or lacey's myspaces....okay
today i am doing the top ten things that are my pet peeves...




10. sore feet! (im dancing again, no more crutches! just my foot is friggin' sore!!!)

9. okay...another thing...(this is so much fun playing the negative role!) when you receive ;P a comment or a letter or a text....and someone writes "your cute" or "your adorable" or "your amazing" ......YOUR WHAT's AMAZING?!?!?!?!?! hahaha guys its
YOU'RE=you are... you're this, you're that....there ya go...this is MARTHA's most abominable pet peeve!!! lol(but if you made that mistake...its totally cool im a horrible speller!)


8. misleading foods that say they're healthy but really are loaded with bad stuff!!! those are bad....restaurants as well.


7. when Golden Spoon(my favorite place) runs out of cake batter-flavored frozen yogurt!!! thats the worst!


6. when you're doing a performance and your music skips!!!


5. "the in between" stage when you are trying to grow out your hair and its not quite there....i end up looking like a cross between Buckweat and Justin Timberlake when i start dancing.


4. wanting to put a song on my myspace but the clean edited versions are usually never available here....bums me out a bit.


3. being too busy for people i really care about...thats a big one lately.


2. health care....nuff said


1. okay im at airports all the time...occasionally visiting the bathrooms to take care of business....here's a gross one...you know guys, when you're in a public restroom...you're washing your hands....then you see a guy just flush and leave without even putting some water on his hands? I really dislike that...and its even weirder to think that most of them look like clean cut business men types....thats just nasty....PLEASE WASH YOUR HANDS PEOPLE!!!! lol whats even weirder is when you're boarding your plane and you walk in and he's sitting right there...and he knows you know that he didn't wash and he knows you know that he knows.....thats very uncomfortable!!!!



lol that was my tantrum...hopefully i didnt hurt anyone's feelings...this was really all in fun...new pics coming soon from CLK'DbyBNJI


peace love and SAS

THANKS TO ANONYMOUS!


to my awesome exchangers...

hey guys... a really quick note to all of you who participate with the exchange...i wanted to personally thank all of you for all of your support on the website...and all of the endevours you have done to support both mylelf, dance, and demand.
I'm changing my management and redesigning all of my websites. I encourage all of you who have participated in the exchange to join my myspace brigade. I will even make a picture specifically for all of you to "exchange and talk on" in my pictures sections just has the benjellers have done so with my first pic...i promise to never take it down, hense creating a home closer to me where i can read everything and im in control of what is being made. sometimes there are too many middlemen in this business...so im clarifying some things...honestly...this doesnt have anything to do with me not wanting an exchange but, id like to not have my forms of communication so spread out...my myspace is large enough to spend my full free time on answering and reading alll the messages which i still do. so i ask my exchangers on myspace to pass the word to the rest of everyone. i think in the long run it'll be better and i will get the chance to everything that is being said a little bit better. its so hard to meet someone in real life and say"dont you know me i sent you that letter from the exchange...yada yada yada" and i feel bad cuz most of my attention is put apon the things where i have my own creative control...i would like and still try to be as close to my fans as i feel possible...to do so...I am asking the great exchangers to come over to my myspace. thank you so much for understanding all of this...love you guys!!! you're the best and pray you don't feel that im taking your support for granted. in fact, this should be a sign that i DO give a darn!
peace, love, and sooooooooooouuuuullllllllllllll....your candyman,
benji


also a whole new website will be up shortly...as well as a new DEMAMD page.
they should be hot!

Benji's New Picture : )

Okay, this IS Benjelle related... Well, 'Benj' related... Sans the 'Elle'...

Nevermind.



Love!

~ Moosey ~

HUUUUUUUUUUUGE FAVOR!!!

Sorry guys, this has NOTHING to do with Benjelle... Another obsession of mine pairing-wise is Reela/Roomies of ER, and I've been wanting to make a montage for them for a REALLY long time... I FINALLY found a place where I could download clips, but they're all in the .wmv format and I can only open .avi! *gasp*

Okay, so if anybody would be willing to do me a huge favor by letting me email them to you, converting the files to .avi, and sending them back to me, I would seriously be greatful to no end and do just about anything that you asked of me!!

Let me know if you can do this - PLEASE!!!

Love!

working on....its been a battle for a few months! and i found the perfect mix!!!
LOVE IT!

7. Having a new friend who you know can know everything about you and vice versa.
One of those choice peeps in your life that you know God put there for a very
important reason.

6. two words... "passive income"


5. "Staying Alive", part two to saturday night fever...an amazing 80s flick!!! i used to
dress as tony manero and i bought the tape to the the movie and danced so close
to the fire!

4. Actually digging the bald head on Britney...it think its way cool and it wasn't a
harsh decision...i think shes showing finally self above career. I can totally feel
her there.I think she has a nice shaped head so its cool. not some odd looking
thing like my head lol! I look at it in the way when i shave my head, i do it to start
over or to start something new.

3. Being a part of a music video having one of the hottest girls around slap your butt
repetitively on camara, looking all good, who was wonderful to work with, and feel
good about the product done....oh come one...you've all done that now haven't
you? ;P

2. Overcoming supposed fate or judgement. this one is personal, but we've all had
something to prove...and we all will one day step it up and prove and learn. A
close family member did that recently...Im so proud of him!!!!

1. Baby Mila....if you don't know who she is...you are missing out on one of the
coolest little ladies in the universe!





THERE!!! I think im gonna do a top 20 next time cuz i have more to say!!! itll be in honor of the Top 20 in sytycd...no?
love yall


a very pleasant benji

Benji's New Quote

Just thought I'd put it here:

""let's do it!" (flips off 30 foot ledge holding hands, they land perfectly) ." Hold On Manero!" They do not make dancers like thoe from the 80s anymore!"

*kinda confused*

Benji's Uh-Maze-Een (I'm A Dork)

The question on everybody's mind: Who is that girl that Benji has a picture of on him MySpace?

I'd gone to her page, and found she had a looooooooot of pictures of her daughter up, but I was in a hurry at the time, and thought nothing of it. Thanks to one of our faithful Anonymousi here, we have the full story:

Anonymous said...
that girl is andi. her two year old daughter, mila, is dying from a brain tumor and she made a myspace for her (www.myspace.com/andiwuvsmila) she's gotten a lot of attention and support and benji has gone to visit them multiple times

10:28 AM, February 20, 2007

Let's hear a big woot woot for Benji being the incredible guy he is! Awww... See, and if you recall, the entire reason that purple is the color of Benjelle and true loe is because of those bracelets they wore to help another girl...

These guys ar great!

Lots of purple love to all!

A Sweet New Montage

I don't know what's going on with the big black space near the end, but I found this new picture montage (The first from Zinc4), and I thought it was sweet : D. Just thought I should send a little shout out to those fortunate enough to have time to keep making Benjelletages - Mwah to you lucky Jellies!

Awwwwwww

Much love to all!

~ Moosey ~

So this morning they said that Cat is going to be on Good Morning Ameriker like as a host/interviewer/talkingperson and such. So does this mean that she's not going to host SYTYCD next season? :( *is worried*

FINALLY! The new blogger has decided to be my friend. :) The snow outside knocked out the cable so it took a while to get back online buuuuuuut...Benji's new [err. old.] blog!!

BENJI's Top 10 THINGS for the week!!! 1
Current mood: good

hi guys need to sleep but here's a lil sumthin' to chew on..feel free to post back your top ten things of the week!

in no particular order...

10. photoshopping pics that are taken on cool camaras!!!! lol!!! and that could be from old or weird camaras too...

9. "candyman", by christina aguilera ....mad props for doing something different and bringing a swinging sound back to the mainstream!!!

8. crumping in public without music on... it gets me more "relooks" by passerbys than if i was to put on shiney shoes and slide around at a walmart in utah!

7. kissing... its great!!!

6. golden spoon soft serve ice cream "cake batter" flavor...its all fat free and reminds me of my weiner dog Patty...she likes it too i used to buy her one every morning and we'd eat them together outside because they don't allow even human-like dogs inside.

5. anticipation in new albums coming out that actually step it up: recent ones: kingdom come, by jay-z "jigga what!"
the evolution of robin thicke, by robin thicke "so lost without you(DING!"
pasado, by sin bandera "sere un buen perdedor!"
limon y sal, by julieta vengas "y te quiero con limon y sal!!!"
anticipating albums that i know will be dope:

"untitled" by rocket summer......bryce is the man!
"untitled" by britney...........i know i know i know....shut it...you know you still like her!
"DETOX" by dr.dre ......................"aftermath!!!!"
"shock value" by timbaland
"big" by macy gray
"tba" lincoln park
"light at the end of the world" erasure

5. wearing sweatpants that feel worn in a lil

4. working so hard in whatever you do that taking a day off to rest isn't guilt ridden

3. arcades!!! win as many tickets as you can with a friend and get matching cheepo items for the memory "4000!!!! oh yeah"(people smell the speculation)

2. teaching your parents how to use a myspace!!!!

1. learn a new art or anything you might be good at from someone who does it completely different from you...and watch the progress ....(taking crazy different styles of class when Im not teaching...so amazing!!!)

.5 i have one more...prayer...twice a day atleast but making it a priority...really is amazing...no matter what you believe...its nice to talk openly with someone who knows you better than you know yourself.

Hi it's Nony!

I just saw in the new issue of Dance Spirit (the one I told you about that has the little story about Travis telling us how he learned how to spin around).

Well there's an ad for Tyce Diorio's workshop. It's just names: Benji, Allison, Ivan, Heidi, & Donyelle!!!! A day of dance with the stars of SYTYCD. Workshop classes for ages 9 and up. Sunday, February 25, 2007 at the Hyatt Regency Wind Watch Hauppauge, NY.

So if anyone lives in the NY area, you might want to check it out.

10:25 AM, February 03, 2007

Anywho, I'd just like to say...:

I AM SOOOOO SORRY FOR BEING SUCH A TERRIBLE BLOGGING BENJELLY!!!

I promise I haven't forgotten about you guys, I'm just really, uberly, unbelievably busy nowadays, and there's a lot of crap going on in my life right now, so I've been unpleasantly absent... : ( Thank you ever so much to my pal Taylor for picking up the slack, though (We pretty much always go back and forth on who posts the bulk number of posts at a time, and right now I guess it's on her), and I really hope to be back full force soon!

I love you all!

~ Moosey ~

bloggin' b

WOOT! The B-man blogged! =) omgoosh I can't wait until benji's b-day pics!

...Benji is not going to talk about his lovelife anymore....does this mean that I can start shipping Trivan?? ..please? =D hehe.



IM ALIVE!!!
Well hello!
been awhile...I know I know...sorry about the wait...I have been oober busy. Its really late but I felt like I needed to just touch base with people with where i am at in my life right now and what the heck has been going on with me lately....lol!!!

Benji v.2.0

I've kinda reinvented myself in the myspace world because o the state in which I feel i am in. The next few paragraphs wil explain more as to why im calling this subproject Benji v2.0

HOME ALONE 23: Tired of this Movie chain...

For starters...I have my own aprtment...all by myself! its such a change from the life that I have led for so long...I started out with my folks...then lived with a missionary companion for two years and change, who was always around, then I lived with some buddies of mine right b4 the "tv show" happened...then in the secret location apartments I had numerous roomies from the top 20, then on a tour bus with 11 other people, then between hotel rooms with dance partners and both of my parent's and friends' apartments (where i crashed in between the tour and now when i wasn't out of town or the country). So yeah, I have a fortress of solitude...well atleast for a little while anyway!
I've had m place for nearly 10 days and I've only slept in it for 2 hahahah!!! well i guess Superman couldn't chill there for very long either. Not like Im saving the world, but I am trying to make it a lil better.

Old School Cuz Ima Old Fool!...

Many of you know I turned a whopping 23 years old!!! Wow, Im nearly ancient!!! I just wanted to thank all of the many great fans out there who have sent their warmest regards...and for some...ahem, you know who( hint: "oh, how odd seeing you here" chelsey ny) went way neyond the call of duty in the gift(s) that were given. Thank You all so much....it is in no way necessary to give me anything...many of your little fingers gave me one of the biggest gifts i could've recieved this past year "ahem, 1-888-tempo-04". ;P
Also once again another shout out to the amazing quilt made by the exchangers!!! Its up in my office room lookin fly!!!!


So Much, So Little


I have so many things going on, and yet so little time to do it in...I have a thousand and one projects, brainchildren, ideas, concepts, energies and desires I would like to make/create/finish/provide right now, but I have almost no time to get to all of them.
So, Im trying to really be focused now. Im using all the time I can to getting certain things done...hense i haven't been on here as much...although i now have my own place so that will help a bunch and let me be in better contact here. The dvds are out soon...they look so good!!! im really excited for people to learn what I think to be one of the best dances in the world. Also, my personal website and the DEMAND websites are going to be recieving a huge facelift soon. So will the new and improved www.benjiandheidi.com...our origional page was just a temp while we put the finishing touches on the site...it should be coming out very very soon!!!

Put a Lil' Love in Your Heart


And that's where it'll stay with me now. I have officially decided not to discuss my love life at all in public, i.e myspace and my fan pages. things get way too complicated. I think a signiificant other deserves to be protected and if I do have a special someone or when i do...it saves me the stress in changing my "relationship status" and wondering what people would think of me or the person i was with. So yeah, there ya go with that one. I will say though, that I am very happy right now in terms of the people I associate with. I think that that is enough.



Don't Hate, Appreciate


I come form a very artsy yet moralized family. I love that. I have my own personal moral values and yet i don't find myself to be a narcisist nor one to be very judgemental of those that do not follow the same path that i might take. In fact a big chuck of the friends i have are very different from me...I love that. I have been in this business for quite a while...and whats so interesting to find out is that in a professional world of arts and entertainment, one would come to expect openmindedness and acceptence for all walks of life...and to an extent its VERY true ans awesome at that. But i have also noticed something very sad, and that there are still traces of racism, anti-religionites, and homophobes. Those three things i do not like whatsoever. I may not agree with certain things that people do, but I also know that amost every human being has so much more to love about them than to dislike or even worse hate. I feel like maybe I've been staying back from confronting those issues a little too much. Im going to try and be more vocal in what I know is not right. In all honesty, I've been accused of being almost everything in the book...so what do i really care if someone accuses me of whatever they may think of me. Im going to try and just as my ring says "Choose The Right" and be honest with myself and my Maker. If I offend the Status-quo...OH WELL!!! lol....I hope we don't let these issues into the arts as they have in so many other areas of both the professional world and the social/recreational world.


Lights/Camara/Action-


First off, the first movie will be filming very very soon! Should be fun learning experience...my part is small enough to take baby steps but large enough for people to definatley see me...lol
also I just invested in a new camara...these newest batch of like say, the last 5 picsare from "her". Im going to be taking lessons soon....so excited!!!! I haven't even scratched the surface with what i want to do with it!


DANCE Too Much booty In Da Pants


I love dancing!!! I don't know if I have stressed that enough!!! It is the coolest thing ever!!! Im dancing all the time and teaching and growing with it. Im opening my mind to new stuff and thats great. I had a great opportunity in taking class with Dony recently which is always grrreat!(that was so tony the tiger!). My body is getting a crazy upgrade...going to be going to the gym(well, atleast im telling myself that! a friend of mine has been going and im jealous!!! lol)


re RITA WELTCH: PROFESSIONAL DANCER!!!


Yes she is real! And you'll see the pics when she came to my exclusive B-Day Party!!!
pics coming soon...need some time to gather them all!!!! crazy times...amazing times!!! let's just say that the theme was 80's prom night...gender role switching occured. the place a Giant Chuch E Cheese's !!!!! amazing!!!!!!!!!! then after party at an in n out then off to toilet papering like 3 homes then a parking lot dance off amongst friends then a session at my studio when we got back from the other city we were going crazy in. Then a sleep over!!! all without drugs and/or alcohol!!! oh yeah...Mormons DO know how to throw a party!!! hehehe



Was I Kidnapped?!?!?!?!?!?!



Well kinda...I kinda can't talk about it for a lil' while...you'll know why someday soon...
please no commenting about this. Thanks!



V.2.0!!!!



Okay, well I guess you can see that I have so many "wokrs in progress" and I have done so much "upgrading" both professionally, socially, resposability-wise, artistically and even emotionally that I feel like "Windows xp" or vista or whatever. im still a work in prgoress but some minor things have been improved apon and some new bugs have been detected. hense the commemoration of this next step and chapter in my life by calling its just that...and upgrade....it doesnt mean ive made it, just that ive fixed a few things, but the can of worms is opened even more and now I have even more to work on and improve apon.
Im so grateful for all that even care to read and listen and come back here and those who donate to DEMAND and those who have supported Heidi and I's projects in the last month. I truly am ver thankful for you all and I hope that you are all doing great!!!

Have a good one...back in action!

Benji v.2.0



-Taylorkins :P

Benji's new profile song!

Ooh YAY! Benji has a new profile songg. The Rain Don't Last by Hope. One of my all time FAVORITES! And the weird thing is that after CC introduced me to Hope's music I made a montage to it. Bad news is that dickhead...I mean Dick Clark deleted my youtube account..but anyway...on with the show.


1ST VERSE
Mmmm... Mmm... oohhmmm...
Could it be the world's gone colder?
Baby, I'm a losing soul
The more I try it just gets harder
And my pain is getting old
Somebody said that nothing lasts forever
Just the storm so I've been told
But it seems that when it rains it pours

CHORUS
And you know the rain won't last forever
And you know the storm won't always flow
But if the sun don't shine forever
You gotta let it go

2ND VERSE
Sometimes my burdens get so heavy
And it seems too hard to bear
Sometimes I feel so empty
And it feels like no one's there
Somebody said that nothing lasts forever
Just the storm so I've been told
But it seems that when it rains it pours

CHORUS x 2
And you know the rain won't last forever
And you know the storm won't always flow
But if the sun don't shine forever
You gotta let it go

And you gotta let it go...
And you gotta let it go...
Mmmm... Mmm... oohhmmm...



...the good news is: I have a gofish account ;) haha eat it, clark!






-Taylor :P
