your heart is right there, to wipe HER tears away.


For when you have to get dirty,

You can roll up your sleeves and keep that part of you clean.


If your heart is worn upon your sleeve,

It makes it easier for you to put your heart to your head, so YOU can listen to what your heart has to ...

The taste of my own blood.... Its the last thing I remember of my first fight...

Knuckles hurting, and split up with cuts. Stained with the blood of my hands, mixed with the blood of not my own. Sweat and blood dripping into my eyes I could barely see. I've been in only a few fights in my childhood and won even less. I brace myself up against the brick wall to regain my balance and stumbled to my knees as I stepped forward in attempt to wa...

Of all things that could happen to me, I ran into a vampire at the mall, I couldn't comprehend all the things that were wrong with this picture let alone if I believe that vampires, werewolves, supernatural or the undead really exist, but for all purposes of curiousity, I had to ask her out for coffee, and have my little Ann Rice rendition of Interview with the Vampire. In all honestly if she really was a vampire, it is yet to be determi...

The " it " girl, everybody knows what its like to know the girl next door... the one girl thats right there not a few hundred feet from where you sleep. She has a smile so bright and radiant you can't resist to crack a smile yourself, it becomes so infectious . She has incredibly beautiful eyes that gleam like when the stars shine down from heaven at night from above a twinkle so much it hypnotizes you from the heart rather t...

Prepare For The Long Haul

Posted by Ervin A. Villanueva on Tuesday, November 16, 2010, In : Life 
if it isn't a surprise, the world is a load complex infinite possibilities. The dilution that only one conclusion will result in the sum of your life, only personifies that your not ready to live your life. For example, if you think you can plan out your life before you reach the age of 21, college, a home, marriage, career,

Now Life is Becoming a Shit Storm

Posted by Ervin A. Villanueva on Saturday, October 17, 2009, In : Life 

I've reached my limit, & the pressure is on. House, Wife, Car(s), Rent, Own, Mortgage, Bills... Kids?! Not that far, yet. Can I do it all? Of course, because this is LIFE, and I WILL overcome and achieve, not because I have to, because I have to know what I can do. If life gives me beyond my limit, I can only do one, of two things; Endure or Surrender, and believe me the latter seems so much more tempting right about now. But if my limit can endure, and stretch my tolerance a little bit far...

2016 Olympic Bid.. OK Chicago didn't get it..

Anyone whose anyone knows I love my town of Chicago. Even though I was born and raised in "Da' Burbs" it's still my town by heart. And I will contest, even sacrifice, to show my love for this city. So to turn on the TV to the announcement of the 2016 Olympic bid coverage, only to hear, "..and with the LEAST amount of votes, Chicago is eliminated for the 2016 Olympic bid." would be suffice to say I didn't eat lunch ...

Five Guys Burgers & Fries, Do they live up to the hype?

Now I only heard about this through the grapevine, but there is a burger joint that would be willing to knock your socks right off, but first be forewarned.. 
 
(1) If you're looking for a garden-burger or some cardboard heat lamped patties, I ask you to stop reading the blog, right this very second. we won't find it here.

Now if you do decide to continue the only other warning I have to offer you is,

Sunday, August 9th 2009

Chicago Comic- Con you have lifted my spirit. I once was lost, but now, am Strong.

As Chicago Comic- Con 2009 comes to to an end it's doors may have welcomed us for the very last time. On the horizon in 2010, NYC Comic- Con opens it's right to host a Comic Book Convention in Chicago upon the month of April. Nothing short of a small change, the comic book convention will be held in Chicago, at the McCormick Place along Chicago's lake front. Minor adjustments would have to...

Chicago Comic- Con 2009 Day:3 Saturday the 8th

Posted by Ervin A. Villanueva on Sunday, August 9, 2009, In : Comic Book Conventions 

Saturday, August 8th 2009

 Coming off a great of night of extra convention curricular activity, I decided to take it easy today. Saturday was the major traffic jam getting to the convention, as well as WALKING through the convention, no offense a lot of you comic book fans need to shower at least once a day, but all of that set aside it was a day that I need to try to find my touch of making artwork. I know I’ve been way out of touch and need just a small justification that I don’t co...

Day 2.  It was really all about Mark Millar: Guest of Honor.

 

9:47pm. Casually making our way through the Hyatt hotel bar, looking to meet up with artists/ writers and the whose who of the comic book world. Mike graciously buys us a round, in which we cautiously chose drinks that would be deemed a reasonable price… 3 drinks for $18.00 is rather less than reasonable by any means.

A bit disingenuous (which was according to Mike, the word of the day) about how...

Premiere night. So the masses begin to gather, looking and looking to see what’s fresh at this year’s Chicago Comic Book Convention. No surprise that the talk of the weekend is going to be, guest of honor, Mark Millar. Briefly he is known for his writing on the comic book: Kick Ass & in recent history, Wanted, in which they made a major motion picture loosely based upon. Amongst other things, G.I Joe is also going to premiere in theaters this weekend, a...

X- Games 15

Posted by Ervin A. Villanueva on Sunday, August 2, 2009, In : Sports 
I haven't kept up much in the past with the X- Games: BMX, big air, vert, flatland & park, just to name a few, only because to me, the new tricks are not usually perfected there, their discovered in practice, or there's too many categories to keep up with. I can't even name half the tricks these kids come up with these days, yeah and that's another thing too, I'm getting old. But I think it's weird to flip the channel to ESPN and see the X- Games taking their course in LA this year. To see so...

Posted by Ervin A. Villanueva on Thursday, July 9, 2009, In : Artwork 
I was just going to plug my deviantART.com page on here to get some attention to some of the people who may know about my art. It's basically my online Art Portfolio, stuff with some of the characters I'm involve with as well as fan art and even a little bit of photography and photo manipulation. You do have to be a member to take a look at everything leave comments and such, but you can still view my gallery and what not, if your not a member yet. I try to update on a usual basis but like al...

The Crosstown Rivalry 09'

Posted by Ervin A. Villanueva on Monday, June 29, 2009, In : Chicago 
These cats are insane, and I don't mean the teams.

I'm not even going to talk about the game itself, or the series of the Cubs Vs. Sox, cause no matter who has the better team, stats, managers or stadiums, they've always (of late at least) broke even. So it doesn't matter whose better, it's only a statement of opinion. I am however, going to talk about the fans of these two Chicago teams. First I have to explain my position on this matter, and it's probably the most hated position a baseball ...
