Hello Fellow TeamLiquidians!!!
[image loading]

Hope that you and yours are doing well and are happy and healthy!

Had some thoughts about droning on .. trials and tribulations...hardships of life is something we all have in common though the sources and effects vary for sure.

When I wipe the fog of doubt and negativity away... if it all were to go away today. Well... Ive done more than I could ever imagine, my kids have a much better start at life than many others, myself included. And I am only so thankful for the chance to see and connect with so many others of like mind!

Having these chances to travel and do an art form I am so passionate about and share it with a community that I feel just as passionate about is the best feeling in the world! Feeling guilty is something that comes along as well.. guilt that I get to do this and others don't huge guilt that its what I want to do more and more.. I want to be doing nothing but this ..;p


All that said Ive been trying to put my head down do some real work. Currently its working on getting my daughters old room in order so that if somehow I am able to do more balloon work...Well the thought is I might be able to do some balloon/gaming streaming who knows..website...social and working on trying to get more events and possibly adding an extra artist or two at said events!

ESL Berlin Major was a blast!

Highlights!

>Seeing Naz for a split second as he ran by (he was already away when I relized it was him lol) hi man!!
>Seeing Boxi, Britt and other TL players/staff Always treat me so nice!! <3
>I even got to be moved up next to the TL booth the last day!
> Going up on stage ... asked and within minutes we were on the air just winging it!
>Each and everyone of the people I got to talk with you all are amazing!!
>Saving the Drow cosplayer by trying to make her a replacement weapon after hours.

The event was great fun for me everything seemed to go smoothly ESL really does put on a great show!

Any questions or anything please ask!

<3 Appreciate the kind words JieXian, AmericanUmlaut and skindzer!

Bringing a smile to others even for a minute is for sure one of the driving forces in what I try to do!!

Top 3 reasons I come to TL:
1. To be called old
2. See FuDDx balloons
3. Bisu

P.S.
When can I pre-order my MSL edition Bisu balloon?!?

Check out this timestamp, my man breaks the baloon without leaking any air, throws the tip away, pulls out scissors from a lanyard (which I hadn't even noticed), snips it, also throws it away, gets another baloon from a different color, bakes a bulp, snips and trhows away the end WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING at the bin , all in 20s ... all while carrying on a fully fluent conversation on stage in front of how many thousand people? Srs impressive, well done

I was thinking the same thing when I saw that. That design was just pure motorskills. I love seeing people at the top of their craft. I could watch competitive knitting if it involved the top knitters in the world.

I was curious about the balloon tying technique if you can share it. It looked a little different from what I do and I can tie balloons nearly instantly. This is pretty much what I do.

hummm.. I loop over my left hand the pointing finger and middle finger. and push the nozzle through those two fingers. Similar to this style. I have a buddy here in Arizona that does it one handed he does a bunch of flair style stuff.
