...I bet that some people are curious why i call my self ROCK-STA✩R?. First of all i would like to say that, once i was working with a student program at the crag, and i heard somebody yelling at me from behind "you look like a rockstar," and i thought that was such a cool name that i really wanted to start calling myself something that would be VERY inspiring for me. Also I use to study journalism when i was in school, so i loved writing some things, but it was SUPER challenging for me. It tried to write in English (I am thankful for Jayne for helping me edit my work so proud of her). The last reason comes from my good friend JStar, I'd say that he's one of my inspirations, and really worth writing about, I want to share some of my inspiration and experience with everyone and why I am so MOTIVATED in my life and why I want to kick ass and accomplish my goals.

Am i do something wrong when i climb?

...The time goes by so fast… It has been one year already, since I started officially working for the Chaing Mai Rock Climbing Adventures, I have done so many things, some successful and other things I still need to work on, things I still need to work at in order to reach them. I've been finding myself so much this year, what i want to be and where I'd like to go. It took me a long time to realize that I really want to go on (BROADWAY=Pro Climber). I am setting my personal goals to kick ass the project 13c by next month, I am super psyched for that, I have to "Work hard and Climb hard". One year had passed and I've grown through a lot as an instructor and climber, I have learned so many things from my work. I've been able to develop the Crazy Horse Buttress and learned how to become a facilitator. My life has changed a lot and sometimes when I look back, everything seems totally different, I was kind of like a party boy, drink a shit load of beers, smoking cigarettes, i took every thing that was not good for my body (Shit! i think I’m gonna die young!)

VERY comfortable belayed
...When i was young boy, I was surrounded by the best family that any one could ever have ever, my dad was a police man, my mom was a house mother, both of them were SUPER awesome people and they both inspire me so much, they were so supportive and encouraging towards me. We haven’t spent much together for a while, because my parents got a divorce but in the rest of life they're still good friends, and i never thought that i missed out on anything from them, it is kind of sad that our FAM didn't stay together when you see other fams but life goes on…

...Rockstar, at 23 years old! Wooh! I've been climbing almost 3 years now, but it was on and off in the first- two years, i started to dedicated my life to climbing during the last two months. I kind of like fell in love with climbing all over again, I'm so super STOKED to be crushing everything and saving up a ton of money to get on the climbing road trip as soon as possible=Radical.
I feel SUPER safe there!

We're real ROCKSTAR!
"WILD CAT"
...Since I started training, I didn't even have the day off at all, but it was worth it, thank you to the Chiang Mai climbing communities for everything, encouraging and supporting me, my good friends, I hope I can keep it up and make it to the next level Lately i just got my such a nice gift, new trail running shoes' la sportiva wild cat'. Thank you so much for Evan Chen, my friend for his kindness and helping me , I'm very stoked to wear it on. and go for running...SICK!!
See ya at the crag
Cheers!

Stay Motivated

September 14, 2010
Setting goals is a really beautiful process. It's essentially a method of bringing our dreams into our reality. After setting seemingly impossible goals, only to see them come to fruition through hard work, anyone would be addicted to the process. A worthy goal should be one beyond reach- that will require growth to access. (www.jstarinorbit.com)

I think i prefer RED HORSE better then!
It’s been about two months since I started training on my first 12b at the HORSEY, I decided to start sacrificing the time that I would go out to party with my friends, and instead I wake up at five-thirty three days a week go training at the tiny wall at the CMRCA gym. The first few weeks it was so hard for me to follow my dreams, my body was not use to working out during the early morning, I felt like I was dying during the first two-three days and wanted to give up. But I built up my climbing ability a lot in the last two months, I went for a run every other day and crank it out as much as possible (three days training at the wall and two days outside). I am very stoked to climb almost everyday and everything that crosses my mind, is just about rock climbing, and always looking on the positive side of life. I have been obsessed with Jonathan Siegrist and Joshua Morris and with their achievements. I decided then that I would one day make myself on BROADWAY to become a pro climber (and I even say to myself… " if I actually do that one day, that would be a dream come true!)

Add's on psyched to get this SHIT!
I have been very stoked on my training for a while, I just assented my second 12b recently " the HORSE knows the way", I warmed up on the bottom at the archway south face, an 11a Dangerous Joy twice, then I ran up quickly the 11c Sandbag, and 11d Don't look a gift HORSE in the mouth. After I cranked out 1 hour of warm-ups with excitement, nervousness, stress and all the other random things that pop up when you're so psyched on a project that is ahead of you. It was quite hot, and there were many mosquitoes, but I was confident. Once I left the ground any nervousness or stress dissolved... I focused my attention on the crux that I fell on all the time and I didn't even think about that my injured middle finger on the two pocket fingers hold...nice and slowly...nice and slowly... and grab it the DEAD point movement... and then clip the anchors afterward.

It went just like I wanted it to. I cranked it out over and over again and I did it about five times. At the end of the day I felt a little more power and I had to crank it out, so, I went up on the Bee House 11c as the last one for the day. It was such a great day for me that and I was psyched to see my climbing abilities moving on to the next level, I am making progress! (celebrate for little while and moved on the next level). This achievement represents an important breakthrough for me and I hope that it’s just a step to whatever may come next. A whisper of goals from two months ago, became realistic, and then was accomplished. I could not be more psyched!.

My considering more psyched than appear here

I'd like to extend a sincere thanks to Add (my brother), the best climbing partner that I've ever had, for his patience to give me a bad ass belay and supportive. I'd also thanks for my good friends (my employer). The Chiang Mai Rock Climbing Adventures for the little tiny wall for training and Nong Day to give me a nice belay when Add was busy, he never said no when I didn’t have some one to belay me... Click it here...and look on it, this has SUPER inspired ME to crush every stone, no matter how hard it is, always stay MOTIVATED.
Cheers!
