The Weekend

OK, let me start off by saying what a weekend. For some reason, I have a pain behind my left eye that seems to cause a headache. Not only a headache, but makes me dizzy as well. I've had it for at least a couple of days now, but I seem to be feeling better. I managed to get my room cleaned up (for the most) and do ALL my laundry. Now if only I can rid myself of this pack rat mentality, I'd be set. What else.... OH YA! I helped my roommate deliver some cupcakes he made for a wedding. He made over 150 of them and let me tell you, BEAU-TI-FUL! Very elegant and classy. It was something you'd see on the food network, but better. My lil' bro. can to visit. He came down to film a music video for Sir Elton John. So we'll see how that goes. I have my mommy's birthday coming up this week and I'm excited about that. I wanna take her a really nice cake which I think she'll like.

As for today, it was the 2nd to the last day of the Nemo Dream Mobile. Part of me is glad its over, but part of me is also sad about it. I met a lot of WONDERFUL people on this tour and I hope I don't lose touch with them. I have over 5 months of memories with them. The 22nd of sept. is officially the last day before the submarine go to Hong Kong Disneyland. Who knows when we'll see it from there. I'm glad that I'm back to my normal schedule at work though. It feel good to be doing what I like. If only it would be better. Oh well, at least I'm happy? On that note.. I'm off to sleep. Night ya'll!

At Last!!!

Thank you!....... Thank you, thank you, thank you Allie. I have to say that your comment gave me inspiration: "What separates the ordinary from the extraordinary is following your heart and being willing to take the risk!"

At this moment, a feeling of understanding and clarity has overcome my mind. I realize that I play it safe way too often when I don't need to. What am I so afraid of? What do I think is gonna happen to me? I have proven to others that I am capable of many things. I think its time to show everyone that I'm capable of SOOO much more. There are so many things that I've always wanted to do. Before your minds think that I'm gonna go do something crazy, relax. I'm not going to. I'm a level headed person and would never do anything illegal or stupid.

I think its time for me to start doing what I want to do. Time to open my doors of opportunity and take that first step out! With that being said, I'm off to bed. I think its good to end on a high note!

What to do, what to do, what to do.

Sometimes it feels like I'm overwhelmed. It feels like I don't have enough time to do everything I need to do, yet when I look back on my day, it feels like I wasted my time. I know I didn't but I hate the feeling.

Now I'm trying to figure out what I need to do. Actually, what I HAVE to do and it doesn't help that its freakin' HOT like nothing I ever felt. If fact today at lunch, I decided that I would rather die freezing to death then to die by some heat stroke or something. Funny thing is, that when winter rolls around, I'll change my mind. LOL.

Anyway. I want to get another job. Do I need one? not really. Why then? Because the extra $ would be nice. I really want to get my photography business going. I know I can make extra money that way, not to mention I'm doing what I like to do. Its just something I need to commit to. Another idea I have is to create a website. I think I will work, I just need to figure out some kinks. My hopes are that it takes off and Google wants to buy it from me for $300 million dollars. Give or take $100 million. If that happens let me tell you.. ALOT of lives will change for the better! But that's a whole other blog. In fact, I think I will make it my next one.


So I have my cousin's wedding that I'm photographing in Oct. and I'm very excited about that. There's a lot of stuff that I want to do to prep for it though. I want to get some business cards done, cause I know people at the wedding are going to ask if I have a business card for some event or wedding they know of. Also, pricing ideas. I've seen what some photographers charge. its INSANE! I don't think I can do that. So any suggestions will help. Well its getting late. I should be off to bed. Believe it or not, I started writing this about 10:30pm and as you can see, I like to procrastinate. Anyway.. Help me. Give me ideas, suggestions, motivation. ANYTHING! You are my friends and I will listen! (as best as I can) ;0)

So I Begin..

I've decided to start a blog. Why you ask? I don't know.

Maybe because I can. Because its there. Because sometimes I just need to say what it is that I'm thinking. My hopes are to commit to this as best as I can and for my friends who read this, ask for more. Motivate me to keep writing so that you may keep reading. Perhaps this may give you an insight to my mind, my feelings and my life. Maybe it will allow you to see what makes me tick. Maybe it will make you say he's F#%*ing nuts! Who knows.. The point is I'm finally gettin' it out. Read away and if something catches your attention, then I am doing my job!
