"Hope for the best, but prepare and expect the worst so when things do come tumbling down, you don't go down with them." Me..........Sometimes in life there are selected individuals that are different from the norm around them. They work harder, have better character, are more logical, and are just natrually better in many aspects compared to their peers around them. This is where I am situated at in my life. As a young male at the age of eighteen (soon to be nineteen in three days), I co...
While at work today I had an insightful moment that was brought upon me by the store manager. A customer asked him, "How are you doing today?" and his response was, "Just another day in paradise." Now, this is not the first time he has said this becuase I can recall vividly, numerous times in the past where this response has annoyed the tar out of me but this time it made me pause in my track and realize what a beautiful enviroment I have been blessed with. Even today as I was finishing m...
For a sysnopsis of my classes, I would say that the only easy one that I have is going to be my general Lab science that have. The rest of my classes are going to be quite a pain, with world civ being the hardest do to the picky teacher. My accounting class shouldn't be to hard but my statistics class is going to be different. Tonight though was quite a different but successful night. If I could give one goal that I would want to achieve in a relationship it would be to share the ups an...
Today was an awesome day. Wonderful morning and evening at church but also was out on the waverunner with the girl friend most of the day. What really sucks though is that one, the waverunner slip is messing up and is deffinatley going to need some costly repairs, and two, the battery in the waverunner jumped out of its holdster and smashed a hole in something causing the waverunner engine compartments to fill up partly with water. It will still run but it is just not good for it and I don...
It is funny how things go consecutively wrong. At work this morning the sprint guys come in to work on our phone system, which goes off with out a hitch, except for the fact that they bump one of the router and then the registers totally freeze with tons of customers in the store! Well, it took us around 30 minutes to get the registers back up and then we realize they did something with our dedicated fax line which screws it up and they have no idea how to reverse it!! I mean it is just on...
Sorry I didn't post yesterday. It was a great day where I just spent time out at our condo on the beach with loved ones and then the rest of the day was spent with best friends. It was what I call a truely relaxing day which is not common place today in society. Today is going to be an interesting day of course with it being my birthday. I did something out of my normal routine by going to the gym and working my legs really hard which did feel nice because it takes a lot of st...
wheather or not people deny or accept it, role models play a very important role in society because they bring out what everyone wants to be like. Of course there are bad role models like some professional athletes or priests of a satanic cult, but there are also some good role models like some world leaders and other well known people. But beyound the national spot light, we have recently lost a local role model who has inspired us to participate with youth, be more involved with our famal...
How often is it that you would find someone like myself up at 1:15am??? Almost never, unless I am suckered into by some means. I am a person that likes to get to bed early and rise early so that I can take care of business in the morning and then play in the afternoon but tonight I am having late night anxiety and I just feel like venting and being really straight foward with myself. I was pondering upon a random subject the other day and I came up with one of the many true deffinitions ...
First, as a disclaimer I just want to say that I am not adressing to one person. This is just a generalization. Tonight something struck me....why can't people communicate. If broken down to the very core meaning, communication is the very object that has brought us from four legs to two legs and two hands. All the way from primate to homosapien. The ability to communicate and share ideas in its purest existance is the very thing that is responseble for the development of society. But w...
Today was absolutley awesome days with no complaints what so ever. Its days like these that I just admire everything around me and I smile. Stellar work out at the gym, great time at classes, beautiful day out at the condo, and then wonderful night at church. When ever I got out of class this morning and I looked at the sky it was crystal clear blue and I knew exactly where I was headed! Straight to the condo! When I got there it was the most beautiful sight I have seen in a long tim...
Maybe its just me or something but I thought ex-gf's and ex-bf's represented stumbling blocks for new relationships and so while I'm dating someone I try not to associate with them because all it can lead to is trouble. That is just my two cents. But I had an experience tonight that made me start thinking and now I can't go to sleep so I'm going to write. Tonight I got a chance to speak with I guess you could say an ex of mine named Emily (for those of you that know me). She lives wel...
Work was a blast today! This was the first time in about a month or so that we have been entirely busy with people comming in and buying a ton of stuff. I alone sold five thousand dollars by myself with no item being more than four hundred dollars, which is quite an accomplishment in my eyes! The only problem is that now that fall is starting to set in all my close friends have gone off to school. Last year it was really bad because all of them went off to big universities and all of a su...
I think the most wretched thing happened the night before last. A girl that Britt knew and played soccer with was shot in the chest by a boy friend who then shot himself in the head. Of course with all the other things that have happened in her life she is handling it like a champ so far and I am very proud of her. The only problem was that when she called me this afternoon and she was crying I got really angry at myself because I was sitting there stuck at work and not able to come to her...
I have to say that 90% of humans from the ages of 15-25 have to experience things the hard way that have some negative side effect before sometype of learning curve kicks in and tells them not to repeat that action again. I am in the extraordinary 10%. Thanks to a solid foundation, a good upbringing, excellent ethics, and impecable genes, I almost never have to learn things the hard way but I think I reached an exception last night. By far you should never drink on a school night, especial...
Gosh, it seems forever since I have written in my blog! I guess it was tuesday...I just find that is very hard to get to the computer for personal time whenever I am on the go non-stop. But since tuesday a million things have happened and overall, it has been a good week. School wise, I had a take home test this weekend which with the help of a few other brilliant minds, got done. I also have a statistics test tomorrow that I should do pretty good on. Even though I love accounting, the a...
