01/22/10 - Update

Life is full of motifs. We are habitual creatures so it only makes sense. A reoccurring element or theme to a story or play or album or life etc. I was in my freshman year at North when I really learned what this was, it was during the reading of Julius Caesar. It's weird the things that stick with us and how they end up being applied to the world today.  I'm going to try not to be too cryptic on this entry, this is more like a journal update then a blog post or at least that was my intention upon starting this, so we shall see.

I'd rather this be more in depth then just a slight overview. It feels like so much has happened I don't know where to begin. Actually not a lot has happened at all, I'm pretty sure I could sum up the entirety of the changes in one complex sentence but there would be no fun or therapy in that. I guess we start with professional and work down to personal aye? Meh ok

JOB

Week one of the new job is done now. Thus far its been a major success, not only am I getting paid a lot more money salary but the ability to bonus here is pretty insane.  I'm also in training for another week, but I actually get to teach the whole training class on monday lol Morrow would be proud. Which brings me to the only downside I see with this place so far. I havn't worked for anyone else really in a long time I sincerely doubt there even going to have a person there capable of replacing someone who was mentoring you practically since you started something. Meh im staying positive we'll see, worst case scenario I'll be a recluse there and just get my money and bail everyday, no one said you had to be sociable. But yeah by the time my birthday comes I should be able to drop a few hundred on my tat, car running perfect, and still have a comma in the bank, so no complaints there. Also working for the DOE (department of education) has taught me a lot  that I hadn't known and made me a more well rounded collector, always awesome. I've already been able to help out my brother with this information so again nothing to complain about. And finally since it IS something new ive taken on, I've been able to take my mind off of other matters that plagued me which i may or may not get into later. So yeah major win here so far, shout out to 5 shot for hooking it up and Monarch for being retarded and letting me go.

Everything Else

Staring at the long ass run on paragraph about work makes me not even want to type anymore ugh. Anyway as an unbiased statement, everything in my personal life happened has been towards my own benefit. I'm better off with how things has turned out for a society stand point. Dealing with the transitions hasn't been pleasant and moving on has been rather unsuccessful, lately its just out of sight out of mind. Self control has been great no slip ups at all, but other people have been urking my soul with their opinions on some shit.  My family has been riding for me hard as shit and helped a ton with everything going on in my life. Overall I can't complain about anything, other then maybe elijah always breaking my car '-_- lol but you take the good with the bad. Such is life. All the good fortune in the world I have going on I still wish I was sharing it with someone, but im starting to be convinced all the stress is a waste of time and Im alone in how I feel. Sooo its focus on the positive things in life while you watch what you want slip away in front of you. It is what it is I guess.

Games and music etc. look promising in the next year so theres something to look forward too, I had a ton more to say but I was pulled away from writing this lol im just now coming back like 2 hours later sighhhhs. Ill update again I guess.

Uneven.

This is not a masterpiece, this is just whats happening, this is cause I can't just breathe after losing half of me. This is just my last perceived, feeling of collapsed belief, that this was ending happily. Laughably, I'm still holding on, when this is out of grasp for me. What is it that you ask of me, why is it that it seems, your freedom only comes with a stab into the back of me? Tragedy. That you would stoop as low as this, was I too in love with you to notice it, or was this always how you've known we split, I am absolutely closure-less. Hopelessness, since the moment you exposed your his, and I can't even blow a kiss, without the notion that it's yours to get, and feel two fingers on my lips, my souls adrift. It's missing left an open rift, that no one else could ever hope to fit, or come the slightest bit even close to it, and you just act as if I don't exist, I wail in pain that you won't fix, instead you sit and stare at this...... emotionless......

Moving on.

Life changes so rapidly and without anyone's permission. People, places, and things come and go out of lives almost in patterns.  Such is life. It's not all good or bad either. Without moving on from the good things we could never move on from the bad, so we take them hand in hand.  The steps I'm taking to move on are exceptionally painful to me.  Probably because I don't want to, but life has a way of disregarding the things we want and feeding us audibles in their place. Moving on from a job I was comfortable with to unknown territory.  From a woman I'm crazily in love with to someone I'll have no invested interest in. Most depressing and hard to swallow is the moving on from wanting to be a father and settle down to focusing on me and my own life.

I don't want any of these changes. But again, sometimes things are out of our hands, or maybe at some point they were in our hands but we didn't have the strength, knowledge, or clarity or hold on to them.  I have more money then i've ever made to look forward to, along with new lusts and heart ache no doubt. I have everything as a person to gain from the new developments and hopefully when I've continued to better myself it will open the doors to even greater opportunities, I mean if not whats the point?

Thats the thing about me.  I'm always going to be alright, I'm always going to make it, to come out on top.  I've always been that way, and that type of thinking, that type of lifestyle is what makes it hard for me to hold on to things as they leave my life....  On the contrast it's so easy for me to walk away from something. God bless my Ex girlfriends, I must of walked out of my long term relationships a million times each because of this fucking mindset. The entire concept is hypocrisy, you expect something to fight for you, but you retain the ability to walk out any moment. It's like banks competing for you business at all times knowing if 10 years later they give you an interest rate on some miscellaneous loan you dont like then fuck it im going elsewhere. Sighs, and thats what I do. But I mean, can you blame me? If every time you lost a dollar you found a twenty I sincerely doubt strippers around the world would be grasping their draws so tight. I'm just saying.

I mean don't get me wrong, it's not all positives, I'll be making 7 dollars MORE per hour with my new job then I made at S&D but my job will NEVER be as fulfilling as that!?! No dollar amount could replace the experience of that job, could replace bosslady or paul or jesus christ meeting elijah and darah, there would never of been the mia episodes with me and sean, NOTHING would be the same in my life. That job molded who I am as a person today and made my home life tolerable. Woman are even harder to judge this. When there's no doubt in your mind who "the one" is, when you've already seen yourself spending the rest of your life with someone, how do you even approach the next person?  Oh hey! The thought of having to have sex with you instead of so and so makes my stomach turn but what the hell, how about Saturday?? Smh.

So don't get me wrong, it's not all great. But it's not in my hands either, no one can just prevent change in their life it happens. I just have the uncanny ability to make the change for the best and not let my life control the level of happiness i endure. Do I want this? Of course not, but unless all the jobs we've loved called us back with raises, and the love of our lives suddenly stop being raging psychopaths we're stuck dealing with change.  So if it's something that you have to deal with i'd rather be me then anyone else, cause god knows I change for the better, every time.

So I'm moving on. Until the phone rings and life suddenly starts feeling motivated to make itself easy instead of testing our physical and emotional limits I'm doing what I have to and what makes sense.  Mark my words, There will always be another job out there that sees your value and makes an offer to you based on your accomplishments. There will always be another person out there, who won't over look the things that may not have mattered or been taking for granted by an ex. You have to be open and make yourself available for good things to happen because they won't happen on their own. And thats what i'm doing.

Reaching out.

The curtains closing fast, on this cursed corroded path, and whats worse is we're too mad, to let the hurt that we served pass. All the work to bring us back, gets usurped, slips in the cracks, when we lets words disturb the facts, that we're in love, I want you back.

Chapter: Next

I'm choking on so many cliches right now I can barely breathe enough to write this.  The bottom line is I can't swim and we've drawn so many lines in the sand, that my backs finally against the ocean.
Yeah, that conveys everything I need it to.

Gone but not forgotten is the usual saying right? I guess, no ones really died though. Well I guess I take that back, maybe thats what eats at me.  I don't think you realize how this is going to hurt forever, how that memory will or should or perhaps needs to hurt forever. How else would it exist and not be forgotten. Everything that exists in this reality for even the shortest amount of time have the urge to continue to exist, once its forgotten its over. This memory will hurt forever, trust me I promise you.

Chapter Next. Its fitting because everything else i wanted was too dramatic. Im always too dramatic. Truth be told im just a passionate person. I blame my sign, which id of slapped anyone who said that a month ago, but as fate would have it, trial and error seems to have swayed my mind in the astral sign catagory.  Maybe not but it sure is serving its purpose, which is all anything could ever ask for, no?

So what is the next chapter. What does it hold, what is expected to change, what is unwavering. I didn't read it asshole, I'm not going to pretend to know because god knows my actions dont follow any obvious path.  What do I know, well I know me, better then almost anyone.  And the person who knew me better doesnt exist anymore, not in my reality at least. So what do I know.

Well I've written and deleted this paragraph 3 times now. I think scattered thoughts are going to replace it..... That last paragraph was really good, it was honest. What a waste. Gravity? ha seany would get it whatever. My head hurts, Part of me is shutting down but I suppose it can't be helped. I just took off this bracelet from joes lol. Good night. Thank god for the people I have wow. I need to keep focused on the people who are there for me in my life and not the people who.... fuck it. Enough said. I hear naruto being played. Heres a thought, you know how hard it is to enough the things you loved, when youve tried so hard to make those things a part of someone else too. I dont know if you understand that. Like, listening to MY music should make me think of how great it is that someone else liked it. Such is life I guess?? I've been saying that a lot lately. I'm done with this paragraph, I don't think its done what I needed it to. And just like that I can that easily leave it and move on to a new one. Syntax is important, I just said this before writing this thats funny how it came up. Maybe I did that on purpose subconsciously?? Maybe not, a metaphore within writing that doesn't require words just a passionate reader, whos likely been hurt before to get it. Knowing me makes it too easy I guess. Less impressed now moving on.

The idea of this type of blog is interesting. A masterpiece in and of itself and its value, yet useless to the masses I suppose. I miss writing.  I am glad its still so easy for me, I was meant to do this you know. Have to be. Lmao my english teacher would stab my eyes out if she read this, waste of talent she'd say. I always thought good writing was in the image, all whlie my misuse of slang and sentence fragments probably kept her up at night lol anyway. Wow been off topic for a while, I am glad it displays the title at the top while writing this.

My next blog I reveal myself in will be about all the ignorant thoughts that really go through my mind. That will be amazing and epic and sooo therapeutic. I would like not to alienate everyone I know though so perhaps I'll tone it done, I write that while think to myself anyone who knows me knows i wont lol. UGHH new paragraph back on topic.

Truth be told people, my next chapter will be exactly like my previous chapters.  You know why, theres not enough variables. I don't bend, I don't compromise, I just am what you see take it or leave it. Thats likely the reason for every sad status update youll ever see from me, and the reason behind every tear i'll ever shed outside of bodily harm. I might be too stubborn, but you know what, its done me good. And the people that see that have stuck by me and support me to this day. I hope I do everyone justice, its a lot of pressure being the person people look to to be ok. Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it. But you know what so are the people who know it but refuse to do anything to change it.  Someone will come along who is able to deal with me and make it work. And I swear on my babysisters when that happens they will be the happiest person I know how to make some one be.

This blog lacks focus.I will end this with what i've learned, in scatter thought mode. First thoughts? The importance of the new years midnight kiss. Second thought? I need to stay away from jocelynn for a while lol. I was given a crazy reminder about how things end up for people who have chosen not to be with me, and that lead to research and discovering how bad things may have truely gotten for some. wow. But at the time if I had told them to just listen to me and life will be better they would have looked at me like I had 2 heads and no dick.  It takes a smart person to realize someone else is smarter. But whatever someone will get it eventually and hopefully they deserve it. What else did I learn. I don't know, ive known almost all of this its more of a reminder, I forget this stuff when I get emotional ya know. Everything aside, I love you more then youll ever know. I just realized i didnt say half the shit in this i wanted to ugh. Another blog I suppose one with more focus. I love my family and I'm counting on you to get me through the times i bitch out of being ME and allow myself to get down. thanks for being there! You know im here when you need it.

Have a great year people.

Post Two: Bubbles.

So today is December 29, 2010. And it is bubble's Birthday. I've decided to blog about him and immortalize my reflection of him on this day through the interwebz.

For those who don't know Bubbles's real name is Leonard Mason and he is my brother. First thought?? Your getting fuckin old dude haha. I remember none of us being able to go out anywhere waiting forever for you to turn 21 lol. If nothing else let it hold true to the statement time waits for no one. Boy, I guess I got a lot to cover here to encompass everything that needs to be said. I think I prefer not to format this anyway, how often is life ever neat and organized anyway, I'll stick to scattered thoughts for now.

The closest people in my life both figuratively and generally physically being as how we all live in the same house, would be the brotherhood of 4 that is Bubbles, Sean, Elijah, and myself.  Of which bubbles is the baby. Randomly he is also the only one who's birthday is not in may.  I first met bubbles as leonard, through elijah and video games.  No real surprise there but I doubt anyone of us could of seen what type of relationship would have bloomed from that first encounter. Looking back it is pretty crazy how things work out. The short version from there on is that he started frequenting my house more often to game until the situation at hand slowly developed..

Bubbles and I share a unique bond  As im sure the same would be said for any two of my brothers when looking at them, but still.  I'll always look to bubbles as my little brother, and my padwan. I've tried most of the time to point him in the right direction, usually through my own mistakes lol Most importantly by being the one he can count on. Character wise we are a strange match, being as how we are both strong headed competitive people I find it amazing that we've clicked the way that we have.  Admittingly it more then likely is more his doing then mine, as he tends to be the more reasonable and willing to compromise one between the two of us.

New paragraph just because. With that being said through life and video games both professionally and socially, I so to speak have taken bubbles under my wing as a padwan. The bond was probably first set in stone when he was given his name by me, but we will get to that later.  Hmm getting slightly choked up at this point while writing, side note by saying that does it make this a meta cognitive??  Anyway, new paragraph again for emphasis.

Now that the relationship status has be identified, I find it impossible to move on my story without stating the following.  I absolutely could not have asked for a better person to look out for. There are two main reasons for this. The first is as someone I view as a little brother to me, you have made huge strides in making me proud through big or small accomplishments. Your adaptation to your professional and romantic life are both admirable and inspiring. It makes me happy to see you doing well for yourself and making decisions to achieve and sustain a greater life for yourself. The second reason is the admittingly selfish portion, as I believe everything in life that is done is in someway for self gain, our relationship has been no exception. By taking you as a padwan, you unknowingly have pushed me to better myself as well. Every magic match I win, every game tourney I've won, you were there pushing me to try my hardest everytime. It may not sound like a lot to others but as a competitive person I know it means a lot to you to hear it from my cocky ass.  I'm as good as I am at what I do because you've been right there with me pushing me for a long time now. More importantly....

I watched you absolutely soar through the collection world.  You went from a pizza store girl who didn't know VISA start with 4's to CITI collector in no time.  The dedication and intelligence that went into your progression made me so damn proud to watch you move up.  I tried to teach you everything I could in pretty much everything in life, and you've never let me down, you always use it to further yourself.  No matter how big or small these things may seem to people you and I both know the work that goes into getting where we are at and it is something to be proud of man.

Its been a long trip to get here huh.  Now i'm thinking back to some memories, you were the first one to start identifying us as brothers. Because of you I think i reevaluated my stance on family a bit and its definitely the reason we are as close as we are today.  lol Jesus Christ my first roller coaster ride and that fuckin picture grabbin your arm lmfaoo Good times. Countless bowling and laser tag adventures, game tourneys, omfg that trip to the beach '-_-  . haha Not all had to be good memories lol siiighs fucking white shorts >_<  Side note still waiting on you to make moves as my music manager!!! Omfg how many times have you had to hold me up while i was drunk as shit and finish my lines in a battle lmfao endless house parties!! Can you say undefeated beerpong champions!?!? TEAM HOUSE BABY!!!! haha Lunch workin for crossley making our own shots and shit lol Also how can you even begin to mention drinking and not paddywhacks lmfao the night we should of died haha Damn with that being said the whole Brettany chapter was all your doing too, also why I can no longer enter the state of virginia lmao Great times though all things considering wouldn't change a thing.

It's crazy the way things work out sometimes. The amount of events that had to perfectly fall in place for any of this to ever happen is inconceivable. All things in life that go to shit one thing is sure, in this house hold we are truely blessed.  We might fight a lot and tempers flare often enough, especially when you wanna be a faggot and try and say Terry is fuckin 4th teir smh BUUUUTTT its only natural especially when you live work and chill socially with the same person, I know your aware of that too and hope nothing negative between us is ever elongated for any reason.  You've been a great best friend, an asset in the lives of everyone here, and everything I could of ever asked for in a brother. I hope you have a happy birthday dude.
