Rain

2010-01-20T00:42:00.000-08:00

Howdy,

So, it's been raining.

Like, really raining.

and windy. Really windy.

They had a tornado warning for quite some time.

TORNADO!? IN SAN DIEGO!? Naaaaaah

The rain has ruined many plans... many plans.

I'm not a big fan of running from my car to destinations. It's not fun.

and rain puts a halt on bike riding. errrrrr.

I wish I was a polar bear.

Whoaaaaaaa!

Okay, so I haven't been on here in a while... Sorry!

I will be making new entries much more often now. Due to me not having anything better to do.

Well Today I rode my bike. I rode it around my town, You enjoy things better when you're on a bike. When you drive in a car, everything around you is a blur!

Then I bought a Vietnamese sandwich! It was delicious. I also bought a side of sweet rice to go along with it. The rice was purple. It was weird. I swear I was not on acid!

Yesterday I went to the market and got some amazing gum. It's called Big League Chew. If you haven't tried it yet, I suggest you do. May I recommend the sour apple one.

The lighting in my house is Dim...

I don't like it.

I Shall go to Home Depot tomorrow to fix this little dilemma.

Hello,

LEAK LEAK LEAK

2009-10-17T00:10:00.000-07:00

Hello!

Today was a special day, why? Because the new TEGAN AND SARA album, SAINTHOOD, was leaked.

I listened to it, and it was supreme.

But to everybody that downloads the leak, please plan on buying the album when it comes out later this month! I already pre-ordered the digital edition and the limited edition! so you know, I'm set.

Yesterday I biked a lot and it was fun. I should take my bike to more places now.

Friday oct 16th:

I worked at POP boutique.

I hung out with my friend.

I ate some really good pizza from a place in North Park.

I went to some thrift shops and pawn shops.

I went to the post office.

I went to a donut shop.

I met a girl on a cool bike.

I didn't do my home work.

Random,

Moises Galvan

September is over.

2009-09-30T20:03:00.000-07:00

Oh my, I am saying my final farewells to September.

September seems to be my favorite month out of the whole year, not only because of my birthday, but because it seems like september is the month for fresh starts.

I have been 18 for 9 days. whoooo.

Well I pre-ordered the new Tegan and Sara cd. Deluxe edition. Did anybody else order it as well? Are you excited about the new books? Yes? I, for sure, am.

I'm picking up my bike tomorrow from getting serviced. It's a new bicycle. I mean it's old, but new to me. I love it. It's aweeeeesome. When I get it back, I will post pictures of it so you all can see it.

What should I name my bike? hmmm... maybe DJ Tanner? Who knows?

Lately I've been going to Ralph's on a daily basis... I don't know why. I love Ralph's.

Oh yeah, Freshly Fun is donating a goody bag to be raffled at Soma on sat. october 3rd. All proceeds go towards the medical costs of a dear band, A City Serene, which was involved in a terrible accident not to long ago.

So all of you san diego kids, go to SOMA on october 3!!!!!

Be there,

Moises Galvan

Books and Sandwiches

2009-09-18T13:02:00.000-07:00

Hello there fellas and lady fellas,

Well, it most definitely has been a while huh? Well my pardon. School started and all.

Text books are mad expensive! Geez, like sooo expensive. But on the plus side, every time I buy a book, I buy a sandwich from a little place next to the book store. It's a bittersweet trip for sure.

My birthday is coming up, it's on the 21st. I will be old. I don't want to be old. I want to go back to high school. Some one invent a time machine already!

What will I do for/on my birthday? Probably nothing. Maybe something. I am spontaneous.

So, how is everything?

Hellooooooo

2009-08-08T23:26:00.000-07:00

I haven't updated in a while, my baaad. I've been kinda busy, not really.

So comic con went great. I had so much fun, and the Promoguys were super chill. I met so many awesome people and worked with some celebrities.

I bought a bike with the money I made from comic con. Sadly the bike has given me problems. can you return bikes?

Today I did a lot! I went to the farmers market in little italy and it was super rad. Could I get a booth there? Hmm I want one. Hopefully the market manager isn't a jerk like RON.

Today I also hung out with some cool people and had ice cream.

I sold a shirt.

and ate an otter pop.

Goodbye!

Moises Galvan

Wonderful!

2009-07-19T22:18:00.000-07:00

Hello there!

Well today I bought a vintage Buddy Holly LP box set :)

Is it awesome? Well, yes it is sir.

Okay so I got good news!

This awesome marketing company called PromoGuys hired my media company! Not for just any event! I will be a photographer at the SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON 2009! cool huh? I've been wanting to attend the comic-con recently, but they always sell out before I can even think about it.

The comic con has gotten extremely popular these days!

It's an awesome event, I've attended several times. The first time I went was 2001, I think. I was 10 years olds and a huge marvel fan(I still am). It's crazy to think that almost 8 years later I will actually be there working there as a photographer! I'm sooooooo excited.

So how are you?

I'm working on something cool right now. I should be up soon.

Be on the look out!

I sure am,

Moises Galvan

That... JERK

2009-07-14T18:39:00.000-07:00

Hello you guys, girls, Jerks,

As I stated, Today I went to the Mira Mesa farmers market to see if I could get a booth. Well I was denied.

Jerk:"We already have 3 people doing t-shirts and some doing sunglasses, I don't have any room for you, that won't sell, blah blah blah."

Well sorry mister, I was trying to sell some originality and not make profit out of patriotism. I was not going to sell shirts with eagles and flags on them like everybody else was! ugh!

Is it because we're kids? Some times I think it is :(

What's next? I'm going to try the Scripps Ranch farmers market.

Scripps farmers market seems wayyy better anyways! It is much more biggger, nicer, and is located at a much prettier place.

Screw you Ron,

Moises Galvan

Jeez

2009-07-12T17:41:00.000-07:00

My workspace is super messy. There's no room to even think. My thoughts have had to migrate to another room.

Today though, I started a new mission code named: Clean.

I hope to complete the mission by tomorrow!

Im' trying to sell at the local farmers market. So on Tuesday(farmers market day) I need to go talk to the man that is in charge , to see if he lets me sell or not. I hope he does!

It would be sooo much fun.

blah,

POST 4th of july

2009-07-05T08:23:00.001-07:00

Hello there friends,

I attended a BBQ yesterday. It was fun, but I ate a lot of cake. They had ice cream cake there. No one can say no to ice cream cake. Now due to that cake I feel like crap, like I'm made out of ice cream or something.

Yesterday I also saw some kids lighting fireworks in an IN-N-OUT parking lot which I was driving by. The scene reminded me soooo much of Mexico and when I used to be in the streets blowing up old bottles and dolls.

Did I tell you that I purchased a new camera lens for my Nikon? Well I did. It's super fast, I love it.

I got a haircut :(

I'm working on the inside tags of my new t-shirts right now.

Be excited people.

I sure am,

Moises Galvan

I can't sleep atm.

2009-06-28T00:22:00.000-07:00

Hey there!

It's been a week since my last post! whoa.

Soooooo, yup I got the Iphone 3gs. And yes it's name is JIM. He's pretty cool. I drove to Solana Beach today and well, Jim save my life. He told me where to go when It got lost a few times.

I have a twitter now CLICK HERE! It's really weird. Follow me? You totally don't have toooo, I don't think you want to know when/what I'm doing.

"I'm eating a cookie."

"I finished the cookie."

"I got another cookie."

"I'm full of cookies."

"I don't want anymore cookies."

Yeaaaaah...

So how was your day?

good?,

Moises Galvan

Oh boy.

2009-06-21T22:59:00.001-07:00

Well, today was father's day.

I had a good time, I mean I'm not a father, but I have a father. We went to go eat and I had an asian chicken salad :)

Today was the first day I drew in my new and improved sketch book, and well the result was not satisfactory but, I'll keep trying. Zombies are harrrrrd.

In the afternoon, I did run out of gas and was stuck in the middle of the road for a while. Who knew gas ran out before it hit E(empty)? I didn't.

My Iphone is reseting itself right before my eyes. It's pretty sad, I've had it for 1.5 years and let me say it was my best friend. But I need to stay updated right? Tomorrow it will be on it's journey to texas .

Future 3gs, I'm going to name you JIM.

I should start posting pictures here...

I will,

Moises Galvan

I feel special.

2009-06-15T14:15:00.000-07:00

So today is a good day. You want to know why?

Because I graduate from High School! but equally as thrilling, I was featured on this amazing website, WWW.ILOVEYOURTSHIRT.COM.

David from iloveyoutshirt is such a super cool guy.

This kind of stuff motivates me sooooo much!

Tudulu,

Moises Galvan

Oh man

2009-06-14T23:05:00.000-07:00

I have been pretty busy these last few weeks with me graduating and all.

I graduate tomorrow! After that I will devote much more time to MMi.

I watched THE HANGOVER, oh and let me say it was great. One of the funniest movies I've watched in a while! You should check out, yes I'm talking to you.

I had greek food today. It was supreme :)

Stay on the look out, much more stuff will be coming along with much more updates!

I will not stray,

Moises Galvan

HELLO! nice to see you again!

2009-04-20T20:18:00.000-07:00

Hi everybody,

I've actually been pretty busy, but not busy enough to fulfill your orders! Life has given me a few hard punches in the face. But I absorb them and move on.

So, I'm updating my store in a bit! It will feature the new and improved printed belts! Also I decided to make the mustache face thingy my OFFICIAL LOGO! so you'll be seeing much more of him.

I promise not to stray for too long anymore! There's new stuff coming, so keep an eye out.

I'm happy,

Moises G

REFRESH

2009-03-11T23:17:00.000-07:00

Today I sort of cleaned my workspace up a bit. It feels way better. Why haven't I done this yet? Who knows? Do you know?

My chair is suckkky. It looks nice but the wheels don't move well when I command them to.

I bet a rug will help...

What's new? oh the new Ipod shuffle. I almost forgot. I actually like it despite reading so many negative assumptions posted by people who think they're the boss.

But they're not, Bruce Springsteen is. That's a fact.

I have this Apple gift card i haven't used yet. I'll probably buy it, and love it like I love all my other Apple products.

Yes,

Moises G.

Remember?

2009-03-03T17:38:00.000-08:00

I told you I was going to the zoo remember? well I did. It was fun mainly because they sell good food and snacks. yum. Oh yeah, and because I like polar bears.

They also had a lot of cool products like wallets, shirts, masks, ect.... gave me ideas.

Hmm,

Moises Galvan

YAY

2009-02-27T18:50:00.000-08:00

Im going to the zoo tomorrow!!!!!!!

i'll take pictures... and show you all...

don't worry,

-MG

Wow

2009-02-23T00:13:00.000-08:00

It's been a month. I'm sorry. I did hear good news today though, but I'm to tired to type it all out right now. maybe tomorrow.

thrilled,

PRINT

2009-01-22T19:21:00.000-08:00

So I have a little DIY screen printing stations set up in my garage! its a new thrill.

I might use it to make Some MMI totes. Wouldn't that would be cool !?

yes it would,

Moises Galvan

Goodies!

2009-01-12T19:37:00.000-08:00

Hey! I got some pins made! and I like them. They will be free with every order. I'll post pictures soon.

On another note... Tomorrow is half day at my school which means we get out 3 hours earlier. Oh my 3 whole hours, what will I do with my time off? hmm, I'll probably take a trip to Canada and visit Vancouver. But really, I'll probably watch The office seasons like I've been doing for the past month. I totally forgot about TV. So the media has one less person to corrupt for a while!

I win,

Moises Galvan

Post new years, with no sleep.

2009-01-04T00:47:00.000-08:00

FIREWORKS!

I have been sleeping so late these past few days. Right now as I am typing this, I'm chewing a lot of hubba bubba gun and trying to achieve my goal of blowing the world largest bubble gum balloon! Currently I am failing badly.

Oh yeah its 2009! How was your new years? Mine went well, It consisted of very cool fireworks in baja. Bummer is that school starts tomorrow, Monday. I miss it though so its okay.

I'm working on a couple of new stuff for moises made it! so keep an eye out!

OH YES,

moises galvan

POST CHRISTMAS

2008-12-26T19:16:00.000-08:00

I have been doing pretty good, how about you? Did you get anything cool? Did you give anything cool?

Well I missed out on all those early after xmas sales, darn, I over slept. You all know how MERVYN'S is closing right? yeah it closes for good on monday I think. I'm actually not upset at all to see it go because they always overpriced their mediocre selection of items. BUT, I went in there today and boy was glad I did. I bought really awesome jewelry display boxes for future craft fairs I will be vending at! Then I bought what highlighted my whole holiday vacation, A CASHIER DESK! A MERVYN'S CASHIER DESK! Yeah the ones with a built in trash can and stuff! It's super awesome. I'll be picking it up on monday, with a happy face.

what a random purchase.

Cheers!,

Moises Galvan

Christmas is next week!

2008-12-18T17:43:00.001-08:00

Jeez! That went by too fast. I want it to go a little slower, I'm not enjoying it to the fullest.

So I submitted an expire-free discount code to www.shirtsonsale.info check it! The guy(s) who are in change of that place are awesome and very friendly. The world needs more sites like SoS.

The person that responded to me even said they would feature me along with others soon! Thats like soooo nice. I've never been featured. Maybe its because I don't have adobe cs... just wait! When I do get it, I'm going to put my game face on.

soooooooooo hows Pre-Xmas?

Thrilled,

My hero.

2008-12-11T23:12:00.000-08:00

I love the holidays as I have said before! So here's a treat to all. Buddy Holly is seriously one of my heros and his last name is HOLIDAY-DAY=HOLLY. Get those people on you christmas lists something special.

Oh Yeah,

Moises Galvan

December

2008-12-08T18:55:00.000-08:00

Man I love december. There is so much to do!

Things just seem happier and flow better.

Well I have about 2 more weeks until christmas break and couldn't be more excited. This past week end I went to "December Nights" at balboa park , which was one of the coolest things I've done this year. All the museums were free and there were many vendors with cool crafts and food. I love vendors, I want to be one... maybe next year I'll sign up! I ate good snacks and visited neat museums with friends. The Balboa Park people said they expected over 300,000 visitors within the two days! that's insane.

what's up with my layout

it's funny and out of place,

Moises Galvan

CARDS!

2008-12-02T18:53:00.001-08:00

Do ya like em?

I might just start passing them out to random people around school, town, ect.

SO, I got a MYSPACE account. It's basically my old unused one but edited. The url is, www.myspace.com/moises_galvan. Want to be friends?

For Sure,

Moises G.

The Friday Was Black.

2008-11-28T22:21:00.000-08:00

So..., yeah some friends and I camped out Thursday, at 8pm. Mostly for cheap thrills because I didn't buy a single thing on sale. Let me tell you though, camping out in the city for events is one of the best things ever! Yes around 7 am today I felt like crap and couldn't stand straight nor see straight for that matter but it was all worth it. Fun Fun Fun. I ended up getting the coolest vans ever along with a brand new WACOM TABLET from the apple store! It's a small intuos, but I didn't want anything big. It's perfect! A huge upgrade from a graphire!

On another note, I read about the Walmart Employee that died today. A person died because people wanted discounts from the already low priced department store bad enough to trample over another human being. how sad.

I don't know,

Moises Galvan

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

2008-11-27T14:47:00.000-08:00

Code ends on the December 1st.

I'm getting ready to eat turkey... then off to the black friday darkness.

Good time?

Hopefully,

moises galvan

FINALLY

2008-11-26T11:41:00.000-08:00

Since this is the first run of the shirts sizes are limited!

I'm so glad they're finally here. They look spiffy. I might even buy one from myself. You have no idea how much I stressed over this shirt, it was supposed to be released a while back, but things change right?

Oh yeah guess what?

I have business cards now too! they look wonderful and a couple will be shipped with every order. Maybe later on I'll post a picture of them.

how exciting.

Moises galvan

2008-11-24T23:09:00.000-08:00

Ventura is filled with palm trees!

I just got back to san diego and it feels great, even though ventura was one of the coolest places I've ever visited. Bye bye cheap motels and awesome thrift stores...

So...

2008-11-23T18:33:00.000-08:00

Today I went to downtown VENTURA and loved it. It's a really comfy place filled with many awesome shops and restaurants. One store that really received much of my time and money was DEXTER'S CAMERA, a mom and pop type of place which are a near extinct species where I live. As I walked in I was amazed by their vintage camera collection, it's insane. The employees there are pretty chill and place low prices when asking a how much a new or used un-priced item is. In the end I walked out contently with a cool new camera bag for my much loved d80. I wanted so much more but, ya know.

ps. Within the next days I will be changing the background of my store many times. I can't decide!

totally

Thanksgiving is coming up!

2008-11-20T17:40:00.000-08:00

Tomorrow thanks giving break starts at 2:12 pm. Im stoked. ONE whole week of no school! Any plans people? Black Friday? Turkey!? well my week off will include all three and more. Maybe new designs?

so, my dog shirts might be ready soon. Im going to pick them up either tomorrow or saturday in LA and I'm planning to take some pictures around town and post them.

My page was down last night and most of today and that is because I was experimenting with the css. It's extremely complicated, now I know why people have careers in that field. I have gained respect to an uncanny level for all the web designers out there!

New Things

2008-11-13T22:09:00.001-08:00

New sunglasses and belts are up!

Good News!

2008-11-11T20:29:00.000-08:00

I got a bunch of new stuff and I am really excited! I have to go read a book right now or else i would post pictures and get more descriptive. Tomorrow is another day though and hopefully there will be a new post with everything.

Til Then!,

Listen up!

2008-10-30T19:25:00.000-07:00

Today I received my boxes in the mail! I love them! I spent the whole day customizing them, but then i thought of something. I haven't sold anything yet... I want to ship stuff out in my cool new boxes but I can't. sooo to the first 10 people that order a shirt, from me, I will throw in a free pair of sunglasses. FREE SUNGLASSES! At random, I will choose a pair from my magical hat and add it to your order! And to the first, number one, super customer in addition to the glasses I will add in a handmade case for them that will be on sale soon as well!

Think of it as a "It's official now" gift.

yes?

I lost my voice.

2008-10-29T21:45:00.000-07:00

For like the past 3 days I've been sounding like a monster. My vocals are extremely harsh and embarrassing. This makes it even harder to say "hi" or ask for help. Actually it makes everything difficult and turns everything into a scene. dammit. when will it end?

Anyways... I printed fancy pirate soldier today on some stuff. I'll show ya.

Something new?

2008-10-28T18:40:00.000-07:00

Well, i received an order today from American Apparel. An super small wholesale order I submitted yesterday without knowing the cost of shipping. They're sly, they don't let you know! Your online banking on the other hand does tell you, then you cry on the inside.

Oh, yeah, so, I'm experimenting with a new design called "Fancy Pirate Soldier". I personally like it, and hope you will too(even though I'm not showing it yet). My plans are to release this character not only on shirts but on a few other things as well.

Maybe by the end of this week I'll show you the design printed on something.

Until Then!,

Moises Galvan

Hey There!

2008-10-26T23:38:00.000-07:00

So I redesigned my store page today, I'm not sure how i feel about, it will be a temporary one while I make a really rad one. I also cleaned my workspace today! The aesthetics are much better now and hopefully it will pump some ideas into my head. I'll be releasing some new products soon, I promise. Even though I only have one shirt ready right now, I think it's a nice one.

mhm,

Moises Galvan
