[10-18-2022] I FINALLY finished this 1/100 MG RX-78-2 Ver.3.0 (Gundam Base Clear Color) last night. I've been letting this dude sit on my desk for weeks (maybe months) when all I had to finish was an arm, the head, and the weapons. I've come to realize that I'm not the biggest fan of clear kits because the plastic is incredibly brittle. I snapped 2 parts in the legs almost immediately. If I had built the regular version, I'm sure I might've enjoyed the build a lot more but I wanted to do the clear one for my 50th MG. That aside, not too bad. I recently picked up the 2.0 (which is more anime accurate) but I think I'm gonna take a break from the RX-78-2 for a bit. Can't decide if I wanna go with another UC kit next (maybe Zeon) or move into another universe. We'll see what I'm feeling.... #MG #MasterGrade #RX78 #RX782 #RX782Gundam #ClearColor #GundamBase #GundamBaseLimited #LimitedEdition #SpecialEdition #UniversalCentury #OneYearWar #Gunpla #Plamo #ModelKits #GunplaBuilder #GunplaCollector #Hobby #Otaku #OtaCool #Weeb #WeebShit #Mecha #ThisIsWhyImBroke https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj4fVTdudeO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[10-16-2022] I wanted to do an inventory on the PC parts I've accumulated since May 2022. I've been wanting to essentially build the ASUS x GUNDAM PC with out the premium cost (hence all the ROG Strix stuff). All I need now is the graphics card. I'm HOPING I'll be able to get one by my birthday (late November). Debating whether I should get a secondary monitor since the one I got is specifically a gaming monitor and I'll be more focused on content creation. If you're curious about what I have, the breakdown is as follows: -Asus ROG Strix Z-590-E Motherboard -11th Gen Intel Core i7-11700k CPU -G.Skill Trident Z RGB 64GB RAM (4x16GB) DDR4-3200 CL-16 -1TB + 2TB Samsung 980 Pro M.2 SSD -4TB Seagate Barracuda HDD -Asus ROG Strix 1000W PSU -Asus ROG Strix LC II 360 ARGB AIO -Asus ROG Strix HELIOS case -Asus TUF 27" VG27AQ 2K Monitor Not Pictured: -Asus ROG Strix Flare Mechanical Keyboard -PioneerDJ DM-50D-BT Monitor Speakers Overkill for MY needs? Probably. But it should last me a while, right? Anywho, when I get the GPU, I'll vlog the build. Figured I haven't posted a video on my YouTube channel I'm a while. Plus, I can properly get into music production (finally). #PC #PersonalComputer #PCParts #FirstPCBuild #ASUS #AsusRogStrix #TUFGaming #Intel #GSkillTridentZ #ThisIsWhyImBroke #FirstTimeForEverything #Scared #Beginner #BotoSessions #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjy-ixFL7RS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[10-9-2022] From last night. From what I've been told, all the lights in this installation caused the breaker room to shut off the music. Good thing I managed to get these before they stopped using the color-changing functions. Twas very pretty.

[10-8-2022] So happy that I got to see @djjuicym again at @temple_denver last night. The last time she was in town, it was 7 years ago. Got my headphones autographed but it was unfortunately/accidentally rubbed off over time. But yeah, threw down one killer set. So much energetic (^-^) #Denver #NightLife #ClubLife #DenverNightLife #DenverClubLife #ElectronicDanceMusic #EDM #DJane #BassFace #DJHero #BotoSessions #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful (at Temple Denver) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjepZtfuTTk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[10-4-2022] You know what the interesting thing is? I've been DJing since 2011 but I was always too shy/insecure to play out. Even now, I'm still pretty insecure (hence the mask. Keep in mind, I've been masked up PRE-Pandemic. The face shield ended being more to stand out/separate from the "normal" face masks). I started to lose my motivation to DJ pre-2020. I even considered quitting entirely and selling off all my stuff. But, like 6 years ago, I was voluntold to play a gig and I was reminded why I even took up the hobby in the first place. So thanks @denverhousemusic for growing to be an awesome crew and letting me tag along for the ride. Thanks #NamakoTEAM and everyone else who believed in me when I didn't believe in myself (you know who you are). And also, thanks @temple_denver for allowing me to express myself. You've become like a second home to me and it's an honor & privilege to play on both your stages~ 📸 @mszipper303 @anthny.jacobs #DenverNightLife #DenverClubLife #NightLife #ClubLife #DenverDJ #LocalDJ #SupportYourLocals #DenverHouseMusic #DHM #ShyGuy #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful #BotoSessions #BotoMaki #BotoStories #BotoDrip (at Temple Denver) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjSFvS-Om_f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[9-25-2022] Some stuff from last night. Da Boiz from the @denverhousemusic crew and I were on LVL Duties at @temple_denver while the main room was rocking the sold-out RowdyTown AfterParty with @biggigantic headlining. It was definitely a fun time and a lovely experience. Thanks for swinging by and I hope to be invited again sometime (^-^) Also, apparently someone(s) tipped me $20. So whoever they are, "Thank You Very Much~!! Times is hard out here and Brad-ree needs that gas/gunpla mun-mun~" #Denver #DenverNightLife #DenverClubLife #NightLife #ClubLife #DenverHouseMusic #DHM #HouseMusic #BassHouse #TechHouse #ChicagoHouse #Dubstep #Bass #FutureBass #BotoSessions #PLowProject #PLP #DenverDJ #LocalDJ #SupportYourLocals (at Temple Denver) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci8OmHeJUHP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[9-24-2022] Come hang with me and some of the @denverhousemusic boiz tonight as we put it down in LVL at @temple_denver (^-^) The main room has @biggigantic for the RowdyTown afterparty.

[9-10-2022] Possibly an unpopular opinion but "posing for pictures is weird to me." I already feel awkward just being in pictures to begin with but if I had to be in a photo, I like those "caught in the moment" shots because it has a level of "rawness/authenticity" to it (but I get it can be difficult to capture because blurry movement and stuff without proper parameters). The idea of "posing in the moment" feels manufactured to me. That isn't to say that there's anything wrong with it; you want to put the best version of yourself out there. I want to ask my old GoGo/Model friends about it. I think it might be a different perspective. But also, I don't know how to pose or what to do with my hands. But anywho, here's some photos from Thursday night. There should be more (maybe) coming out later but not sure when. To whoever took these, thank you. For what it's worth, they look very nice~ #ModelPose #Poser #FakeItTilYouMakeIt #MakeTheMemories #IDontKnowWhatToDoWithMyHands #ShyGuy #Awkward #AwkwardMoments #DenverDJ #LocalDJ #BotoMaki #BotoSessions #Drip #Steeze #Style #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful https://www.instagram.com/p/CiV8gD-JvDH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[8-24-2022] Other than food, I didn't really buy anything for myself while I was in Hawaii. So, upon my return, I picked up the PioneerDJ DM-50D-BT monitors from @milehighdjsupply for my future PC setup. I also picked up some Gunpla. One of the local HobbyTowns had all the MGs from "Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory". I used to have the GP03S "Stamen" but gave it to one of my nephews. So I might have to rebuy that one. I ended up picking up the RX-78-GP01Fb "Zephyranthes: Full Burnern" and the RX-78-GP02A "Physalis". These kits are incredibly old (like, over 20 years) and are in desperate need of a 2.0 but "Stardust Memory" has to be one of my favorite Gundam series of all time. Also, the GP02A is my favorite mobile suit ever~ In retrospect, I should've probably saved for a GPU but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #Pioneer #PioneerDJ #DM50D #DM50DBT #Speakers #Monitors #DJEquipment #LocalDJ #DenverDJ #SupportLocalBusinesses #RX78GP01 #GP01 #RX78GP01Fb #GP01Fb #Zephyranthes #RX78GP02a #GP02a #Physalis #MobileSuitGundam #Gundam0083 #Gundam0083StardustMemory #StardustMemory #Gunpla #Plamo #ModelKits #GunplaCollector #GunplaBuilder https://www.instagram.com/p/Chq8YM8OAnR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[8-4-2022] I saw that my local MicroCenter got the AIO Cooler I want in stock (ASUS ROG STRIX LC II 360 RGB) so as soon as my lunch break started, I went to the store IMMEDIATELY to pick it up. Me, being very particular, examined every box to make sure I got the most pristine-looking one. A passerby customer started sussing me out like "HEY! Do you work here? Why are you doing that?" Bruh, I'm just very particular about boxes. Chillax.... Anywho, got the cooler (^-^) All that's left is a proper graphics card and the build shall commence~ #ASUS #ASUSROGSTRIX #ROG #RepublicOfGamers #AIO #AllInOne #RGB #ComputerParts #ComputerStuff #PCBuild #PCParts #PCMasterRace #IHaveNoClueWhatImDoing #BotoSessions #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg2fuzApI64/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[7-31-2022] Went to @microcenter to pick up the case I wanted for my PC Build. The box is so obnoxiously big, it doesn't fit in my car. The case itself is pretty beastly but it will go well with the components I have. Plus, plenty of room to fit whatever it is I need in my setup. I just need 2 more pieces of gear and I'm ready to build this bad boy~ #ASUS #ASUSROG #ASUSROGSTRIX #Helios #PC #PCCase #PCMasterRace #PCBuild #PCParts #Thicc #ThiccBoi #DamnBoiHeThicc #BotoSessions #BotoStories #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful #IHaveNoClueWhatImDoing (at Micro Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgs56G3uha2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[7-25-2022] I forgot to post these. I actually finished the MG RGM-79 GM (LEFT) on [7-16-2022] and the MG MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom last night [7-24-2022]. For older kits, not too shabs. So I've completed 49 MGs (48 & 49, respectively). From my backlog, trying to figure out what MG 50 will be; something Amuro Ray piloted, obviously.... #MG #MasterGrade #RGM79 #Grunt #GruntSuit #EarthFederation #EFSF #MobileSuitGundam #MS07B3 #Gouf #GoufCustom #Zeon #SiegZeon #08thMSTeam #Gunpla #Plamo #ModelKits #GunplaBuilder #GunplaCollector https://www.instagram.com/p/CgdFnAHLY_y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[7-14-2022] I'm a little behind on uploading this but I guess ThrowbackThursday is as good a day as any to do it. Some peeps have been asking for it so here's my set from @pokalolasocialclub last month [6.18.2022]. Big "Thank You" to the @denverhousemusic homie @djuricsachs for having me. It was a low-pressure night and it was just good vibes all around. If you need some tunes in the background of your day, go check it out on my SoundCloud page and let me know what you think. And, as always, Happy Listenings and Enjoy~ #ThrowbackThursday #TBT #DenverNightLife #DenverClubLife #DenverDJ #LocalDJ #SupportYourLocals #SupportLocalBusinesses #BotoSessions #DenverHouseMusic #DHM #House #HouseMusic #Disco #DiscoHouse #FunkyHouse #JackinHouse #Dance #DanceMusic #Summer #SummerVibes https://www.instagram.com/p/CgAQv0Zo2je/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[7-11-2022] I built this MG YMS-15 Gyan over the weekend. Finished it in the wee hours of this morning. The build itself is fine. It's different from the Earth Federation kits I've built. However, the joints are pretty weak (especially in the arms). It doesn't help that the shield is super heavy, either (the elbow on the left arm is super loose so the shield needs to be held up with a stand. The connection mechanism just barely attaches to the forearm). The peg in the hand gets worn out quick so it barely holds the sword. Still, not a terrible build, I guess. Also, sticker decals are trash.

[7-9-2022] Yesterday, I got an "inverse colors" version of the baseball jacket with my name on it. Honestly, I like the look of the black one a lot more. However, it feels a little tighter than the white one (I ordered the same size). I noticed the buttons on the black one are a little harder to snap. Maybe that's a good thing. Also, I think I messed up on which logo I submitted; it has a small black border on the lettering. I should've used the one without a black border because now, (I think) it doesn't look as clean. Overall, I still like how it mostly turned out. I don't have a large-enough fanbase to order more. It's more for me because I just wanted to see what it would look like. But IF I were to order some in mass, would you be interested in having one~? #BotoMaki #BotoSessions #PLowProject #PLP #SuccessfullyUnSuccessful #NewClothes #NewDrip #NewDripWhoDis #Merch #SelfPromo https://www.instagram.com/p/CfyLRFkoN_z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
