I guess my birthday is coming up on February 5th.
The end of my "teenage" years.

my teenage years have been a huge love-hate.
I'm kinda sad that part of my youth is gone forever.
But then, I'm really looking forward to the future and all that adulthood has to bring for me.

I'm excited about my career and making my dreams come true one day at a time.
And maybe even getting married and having kids.
who knows?

if you just MUST get me something for the big 20 I've made a nice list :P

1. Fireworks - "We Are Everywhere" cd
2. Socks
3. Toilet Paper
4. 30 of bud light.
5. A hug! (with one or more of the previous items in your hand to give to me. if you don't have the item, don't touch me :P )


In light of the years going by, I think of this video:

I guess I tend to make good friends.
I just really hate when my friends don't get along with my other friends

I really hate the whole high school drama thing.
I mean seriously... grow up.
my roommate Derrek broke up with his GF
she was really nice... I really wish he hadn't.
she was good for him.
they cut out overtime at work... so that sucks.
and our cable box just exploded.


this whole thing seems a little negative.
but we always seem to be able to remember the bad over the good.
for instance.
I completely didn't note the really good veggie sushi I had tonight.
Or that I've made some awesome friends over the past week

what a terrible flaw in human nature to automatically let the bad outweigh the good.


count your blessings.





leave your nice comments :)

how much we change over the years.

and what's even more interesting is when we realize how much we haven't changed.

just reading some of my old entries back from when I was younger shows how much we change & don't change over the years.


I've come pretty far over the last few years.


I've studied several religions.
I've gone to college.
I've moved out on my own.
I've developed philosophies.
I've been around the country.
I've read a lot of books.
I've played lots of music.
I've done a lot of acting.

I've let myself grow in every way I can think of.

I have opened myself.
Allowing myself to become a vessel for knowledge and wisdom.

I've learned to not believe a lie when I know the truth.
I've learned that the greatest harm can come from the best intentions.
I've learned to never let my emotions rule my reason.
I've learned that there is power in forgiveness.
I've learned to watch what people do because it will show their true intentions.
I've learned to let reason be my only sovereign.
I've learned that life is the future, not the past.
I've learned to be justified in my convictions.
I've learned that I can only be who I am. No more, no less.

and most importantly.
I've learned that experience is the whole of life.


it's all a progression.
an evolution if you will.

the moment I feel like I've learned what I need to know is when I realize I don't know anything.
questions lead to more questions.
and I'm not afraid to ask them.
and more importantly, I'm not afraid to answer them.

to avoid asking & answering would be murder.
for life itself is based on experience.
and to rob myself of it would be merely a slow death.

Experience leads to reason and reason leads to truth.
Truth is the reality of life.
This veracity is completely useless and ceases to exist without something or someone to experience it.


I'm very ambitions
I'm looking ahead.
Focusing on the future.
Envisioning the "me" I want to be in the next 10 years.

And I appreciate everyone who supports me in all that I do.
you guys are seriously the best.
