I realized card toons is actually not a bad trick except for the fact that you cant show the trick twice. Its slightly stupid that we have to rearrange the decks again after performing the trick once. Not to mention irritating people who keep trying to sneak a peek at the cards. Otherwise, its a fairly good trick which can be perform to audiences of almost any size. Personally, i still think that card toon1 is better. As in, pulling a card out of a hat seems more magicky compared to blasting yourself out of a cannon and plucking a card out of the air....

Zzz lexmond just told me today that our audition for busking license is on friday. Like wth? i have training.. Omg i dun dare to pon training... busking auditions are retarded.. u go there and perform in front of a few judges just to get a license WOW. Damn i duno wad to perform. lexmond can juggle hell better than me. not that i suck - he practices almost 24/7. so mayb i'll go there and drop some balls and do stupid backpalms. WOW i so look forward to it..

Today after school i went to Magic Hall to get card toon 2.. zz i shud have gotten card toons 1 but they ran out of stock. like zzz? Jeffrey wasn't there, Solomon not there too, only kenneth.... no one to show me random stuff... so i jus bought my stuff and left zz. Den i went back to school to meet my frens to go for my teacher's father's funeral. Boy was he scary... so frail looking... we like stoned there for some time before going to KAP for dinner. My stomach still boils from the mc spicy....

don't expect to earn back fast

magic has never been something which u would expect to spend little money on and expect high returns (by performing). but i guess i've managed to safe really a great deal on magic by not getting the real useless dvds. Credit to my frens.. yea they started abt 2years before me so i really get lots of advice on what to buy from them, saving lots of money for me. I think that its good to have a few close friends who know magic too so that u could pool money together for really exp stuff or buy a trick together. yea... it should be more of a hobby than something which u want to go into just to get extra revenue.. treat it as a hobby, get ur satisfaction from the faces of the people whom u shown ur tricks to. and the extra weight in ur wallet? thats just the bonus.

Card beginners

Well, technically theres lotsa stuff in card magic. i wont give them away though.. but i feel that Os Pearlman's starter's dvd is good i think the dvd's called "Born to Perform". Yea... its really good for starters cos Oz really teaches all the basic stuff (way to go Oz zzomgzz =.=) and theres other stuff such as passes which can be learnt from Richard kaufman (On the Pass with Richard Kaufman) i just u've to watch the video a few times before u'll get it though.

Magic?

I just started getting into magic at the start of this year. Its hard to start at first, but i feel that its really quite worth it after u've learnt a good amount of tricks... enough to show a little here and there. Basically i started on card magic as its one of the most visual ones ( other than escapism and the random big fake tricks by david blaine which include "flying") At first, i thought magic revolves around cards only. Woo i was DEAD WRONG zzz. I don't think i'll ever get bored of magic. Theres card magic, coin magic, escapism tricks, and those random tricks u see on tv. I'm not that good so i won't talk much about what i know... but i could give a few helpful tips for starters.
