Let's be real


We hold on for hope and jobs

I am a new graduate with a Bachelor’s in Journalism?
And for what?
To be fucking yelled at by my parents. To have suggestions to go get jobs I don’t want.
To fucking being indebted and ball and chained by loans. This shit is not cool.
The United States is slowly crumbling financially…but then again so is the world.
Let’s be real.
I thought when I got outta school I would have landed one fucking, fucking, fucking job. No instead I moseyed on to a two month internship. I was asked to take on a project and I worked hard,.
And then fuck it like a bullet out of a gun I was shot out on to my ass. “The lady that broke her leg is coming back we don’t have any room for you.”
Well, that is telling it like it is.
These economic times which are very hard deprave college students of jobs. Our country can’t pass a budget and immigrants from all over are taking jobs from college grads.
This thing in the back of my mind this itch has got to me telling myself that it was worth it.
I will find something I will make money from.
I will earn a living .
And by fuck I will back the goddamn student third party loans.
Hold your head up high! 
Here’s a quote.

The world as we know it

You turn the page.

I turn the page.

We all turn the fucking page.

In a world full of technology what else is there? Yes, there is commentary but is it constructive or is it just blatant attacking?

Ask yourself questions upon questions and you will run into rabbit holes far bigger than you once imagined.
So let us look at some of these changes.

Every couple of weeks Facebook, Myspace.com and now Pintrest keep changing. It is if to keep up they have to change the UI. The user interface has to be fresh like that amazingly squeezed orange juice from yesterday.
Change!
Fuck!
Fuck!
Change!
The mirror is this.
As technology grows exponentially so does  the world.
So then where are we headed?
I am not sure but things get to crazy in a day.
Where do I stand?
I am reading Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury. In which a brief outlook of Martian exploits mark or mirror our world. I have read only one story but I almost couldn't put it down. How do you defeat a tyrant?
Intelligence and a collective is the correct answer. A revolution is necessary for change. Will we see one in the United States?
So much is bleak in the world. Yet, this world is more beautiful than you or your children or mine will ever know.
This is not just a time for exploration but the internet is an amazing learning tool. The best even better the internet to me is books. The amount of ideas or amazingly deep language in books is incredible.
Read!
Read!
Read I say.
That is all.

Inspiration

I really just wanted to write a book.
I mean don't you?
I am a writer through and through. But where does the inspiration come from? Why ask so many fucking questions? Why be curious?

I guess for the sake of having a good time and being explorative.

I think curioudity stems from not knowing the full capabilities of the world. This world needs to be explored and understood and questions do the necessary digging. Okay dig a way and see what ya can find.  And what's the seal when writing running into the idea of pacing. Pacing is something with my book in which I struggle through. Good pacing is doth necessary for a good book
 I gotta get the shovel out and remain observant about this world. You can't just be a blind sheep either.

 My thoughts on the day

Gddday!

Life after that zombie business..I mean life after the University of Wyoming

What is life after college?

I am reduced to tons of free time. Which, I love a lot. I haven't felt this free since I was in elementary school.
Aw yeah!
I came home to the Simpons and all the cartoons I could watch.
It was great.

Now, life after college so far is pretty good. But at some point I have to sack up and get a job.
Hopefully, sack up got your attention.

If not you're on the wrong page.
Continuing on we see me on the computer typing this blog.
What happened today:

I had to cancel my trip to San Fran. The weather is going to be shit. Yes, going to be because that is all the internet is talking about. That and the really horrific tragedy in Newton, Connecticut. So sad for those parents, falcuty and community as a whole.

Played some Fifa 13 on the 360. Oh I won my fantasy quarter final game. I jump into the semi-finals for the first time in my fantasy season.

Making more plans to go back to Cali. Gotta figure out the plan and also get the plane ticket.

Looking for some particular items that I need.

More planning for my Miami trip.

Super happy to have some good food and be home.

I am going to be home for Christmas and Christmas eve. I feel being with the family is invaluable.

Uh....the time spent with family should be cherished. Fuck, I already said that.

Oh I am amped for some college football games this season. I am hoping Bama and the SEC reign come to an end. Notre Dame is underrated in this game. Their defense is very stout and they are not #1 in the country for no reason. They beat a great Stanford team in OT. I personally think that Stanford won that game but who is counting?

Hope everyone has a great Christmas and happy New year!

Bitch I got my swagger back

Can one lose swagger?
Yeah?
I guess one can.

I always have carried myself the only way I know how.

Get money
Get paid.
No that could be a farce.

I am just sayin I carry myself with tons of confidence.
Even the way I walk echoes a bad ass.
I am not being arrogant but observant.

A girl a couple years a go told me she knew who I was from my walk.
What the fuck? Really? That astounded me then but now it is amazing.
Apparently, my posture is getting stiffer and with that improved.
I am happy for it.

So yeah I got swagger.
Swagger can just carry you through multiple situations.
I feel confident basically every day.
And no I am not Kenny Powers and piss excellence.
I am still humbled.
I think I picked up my swagger from community college.
I got way into hats and let them take over. It was 59 Fifty or bust for me. Then I developed a sense of style and went from there.
Then the swagger just followed me.

Peace
Ya'll

Title optional....why? Is it because there are a boatload of Self help books

Optimism is a beautiful word don't you think?

So why do I type? What is on my mind? Wouldn't you like to know? Or maybe you are like who the fuck is this guy and why is he typing?

Either way if I am insane at least I am having fun. Often I look at this crude idea of normality and does it exist?
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
I felt like typing that  because people are going to freak. Well, in some crazy way the three fucks are for complete absurd ism. Do I prescribe to this theory? No. But as I have seen the movie I heart Huckabees it is an incredible movie about different philosophies and maybe ideologies.

Nobody ever likes the staleness of life so why live in pure boringness? Okay, where is this all going?
I have no idea.
Have you ever played with a paper boat when you were younger? Yes, you the one that is reading my writings. Have you? Well, why don't you become the paper boat and flow down the stream of life.

I am listening to Lamb of God's Omerta. Suddenly, the track changes to a different Lamb of God song 'Walk with me in hell.'

Picture that boat going down the current of life not stopping for branches or anything else. Picture you are the boat and nothing will stop you.
I have read three self-help books and came up with this. They don't take into account God. It is good and well. If you get offended or some how scared I am talking about religion fuck off! I can talk about whatever there are plenty of other writings to occupy yourself. Go fucking masturbate if you so choose, just follow me a bit. It all makes sense. I know that is a comforting word for you. Therefore, if these three books Awaken the Giant by Anthony Robbins, and the other books The Secret and what was the other one? I forgot the damn name. They just skip God entirely. It is good that you can believe in yourself as much as you want. I am sorry folks but in my opinion God is important. Then again I am a non-denominational Christian and I choose to believe this way.
So?
Did I learn anything from these books?
You bet your sweet Giusepppe I did. I learned a bunch but Awaken the Giant needed to be cut down with an ax. I understand Robbins somehow wanted to display his grandeur philosophy but it was too long. It got boring at the end of the book. That is likeable to Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. Again in my opinion jump to page 400 and it starts to get interesting. My attention span is pretty good by the way so don't question it.

Ultimately self- help books change your philosophy, nay, your ideas and how you look at the world. It is an  altering perception is it not?

Now the reason I read these books is to learn. That is the only reason. The other parts I can dissect or cut if I choose to. I understand the point but  I feel I have wasted to much time reading the book.
I'd rather read a mystery book and learn about pacing.

Hopefully you the reader are having a great day.

Remember optimism is a  beautiful thing and so is the world.
You can find beauty in a grey world. You really can just keep believing in you. And if you're not Christian who and the fuck cares.
Just don't harm others and live a great life.
Oh and don't be a douchebag...for Fucks' sake!

1984 was a great book

It was sad when it was all over in the book 1984.

Although, can this not be-set man as a warning of the times we live in.

You know?

I am not obsessed with the idea of a post-apocalyptic world but it is still fascinating. Nothing is left and more often times than not there are remnants of a nuke. The world is tattered and there is always a lack of resources.
Water is always hard to come by and so is the idea of finding somewhere safe. Raiders always turn the damn corner hunting for blood. Violence is always present in a dog eat dog, fight for survival environment, kill the other man to win foreboding wasteland.
In fact, I watched a movie last night that relates to this conversation.

Strap a 1957 guitar on a hero's back and what do you get? Wait, a more accurate description is craft a Buddy Holly look alike with the horn rimmed glasses, yeah the big black ones. Ah wait there's more and by more it is cooler than that.

Now picture all this awesomeness with a white samurai sword. You have now built up a hero named the Six String Samurai.

Kick ass!

1984 hit the readers with a very dark and bleak outlook of the times. The main character Winston was really neat but it was sad.....
To be continued.....
