Someday in the not so far away future a child is going to laugh and shake his head at the concept of a “blog” or a “taxi,” or “Twittering.” Think about how drastically our world has changed just from three decades ago when the internet was a novelty. Than consider how far we could be only five decades from now into the future, a time in which you and I will still be alive but the picture and reality of our world could be completely shifted. I’m in a strange mood this morning, woke up and consumed a massive bowl of Granola cereal and have yet to get up from my seat. I’m not quite sure where I am going with this right now, but it’s just one of those days. At the end of the day, this world changes too fast and our days are incredibly short. Anyway, besides of all that mindless banter, the banner above is a rough draft but it's got the makings of ILL written all over it. kudos to Goutfire for the assist.

Under Construction.

Howdy, hello, greetings, salutations and such. Reporting alive and well from the desk in the corner of my room at approximately 2′o clock in the morning and things appear to be all sorts of grand. Did you ever find yourself amidst one of these invincible moods where nothing can touch you? It doesn’t even have to come after some grand accomplishment. Some days I wake up, roll out of bed, click my computer back on and allow a glorious soundtrack of Pac Div to go tearing through my ear drums while the morning is still young

With a music playlist of sheer victory now encompassing my body I proceed to consume a corn muffin with the ruthlessness of a Hun warrior. Standing a not too shabby five foot ten and a half or so inches clad in nothing less than Jordan Brand sweatpants and an OG bape t-shirt I take the keyboard in one hand and the mouse in the other and proceed to weaving a masterful symphony of mouse clicks and keyboard taps within Photoshop to create a page banner and layout of grand proportions.

It goes so much farther than the design work though. It’s amazing to wake up inspired and be able to crack out hours of work before most are cracking their eyes open, but that’s not the end of the deal. It’s that feeling that you can really do whatever you want. In literature they refer to it as the confidence of the youth. The invincible armor many of us seem to be able to throw on that consist of blind ambition and never ending drive. It’s a beautiful thing when that becomes an everyday occurrence and you feel empowered just by waking up. I started writing this post and had no idea what it was I was writing about but it’s pretty abundantly clear to me now by the end of the post.

I’m having an amazingly wonderful time living life right now and I’m only getting started. If you’re not doing something that gives you that same feeling then my only advice would be to stop at nothing to find an occupation where you are doing exactly what it is you want to be doing. And if it turns out what you thought was for you really wasn’t. Drop everything again and move on. It’s a beautiful thing to be able to skip around your room half naked in dances of euphoria but I am able to do that because simply living is making me happy right now. All the things that should be considered “work” are a pleasure. Once you’ve gotten to that point my friends it doesn’t get any better. Let’s make it happen, the sky isn’t even the limit, it’s only the beginning for us. No offense to the big man from Brooklyn.

Seasons.

Today I decided to take a break from my laptop and fire up the good ol' family computer and clear some space out by trashing some picture albums and music I stopped caring for. While looking through my countless files I found a few pictures, journal entrys, and papers I wrote for high school. I couldn't help but to think about the goals I wanted to accomplish back then, I realized that I'm nowhere close to what I wanted myself to be at 25, but you know what? I'm happy. 

Like most people taking a stroll down memory lane there is always something you wish you could take back and re-do. I, being a perfectionist for most things, have a huge amount of things I wish I could have re-done, but the point is that you do what you have to do and don’t look back with regret. I've changed a great deal since my "hypebeast" days and way more since my dragonball hair days. Things ALWAYS change and as long as you carry that same youthful energy that you've had since you were a kid, and make it shine through everything you do, you can't go wrong. which is why I can’t be anything but happy with the outcome of my life.

Just know without a doubt that every season incites more growth. who really knew what they wanted in high school anyway? When I was younger I wanted to be a Meteorologist a.k.a the Weather Man by day and a Cop by night. Fast forward 11 years and now I want to be a elementary school teacher.

anyway here are a few gems I thought id share.

Beached.

Yesterday was when I fully sat back and realized that I was completely in the throws of Summer. It's about a 20 minute drive from the Coronado beach and at some point in the afternoon it was decided that we should journey out to the beach for reasons that no one could really explain. It was more of a collective, “Yeah let’s go to the beach,” sort of deal. The kind of plan-making that will drive your older relatives crazy but at the same time is the only appropriate way to live life during the glorious months of summer.


Well we finally got out to the beach around 3:30 and from there proceeded to do just about the most entertaining amount of absolutely nothing that I have taken part in, in a very very long time. Good times abound on the waters of SD. The people you run into, the sights you see, everything seems to be a lot more interesting and amazing when you find yourself someplace with you're significant other and good friends. Like for example did you know that it there is a instant tanning spray? I thought tanning creams, mousse's, and sprays took days of applying to gradually see results. You can imagine my reaction when my girlfriend sprayed me down and I finally got rid of my farmers tan....Amazing.

Sometimes you sit down and evaluate yourself as a person. You go over your good qualitys and then you think about your faults. At times I can be Rude, Arrogant, Overbearing, and Cynical. I hold on to grudges and can be hurtful and vicious. But you must know that I make an effort to change and I am on a endless persuit to better myself. The problem at hand is that change isn't coming fast enough...
