Background Music

A lot of times I feel like when I'm playing a song in the background while doing something else, I often end up not listening to it at all. I've tried to multitask in a way, but in doing so I've become so wrapped up in my current activity to the point where I can't concentrate on both things simultaneously.
Maybe the music isn't captivating me enough where I'm bumping to it and jamming away while I'm processing all these other thoughts.
I'm just worried sometimes that I can never truly multitask and get all this work that I have in front of me done. Maybe it's best for me to focus on one thing at a time even it takes me longer, but I might also forget.
I'm going back and forth right now on this.
I need sleep, but then I feel so much motivation to keep typing my thoughts, especially around this time when my mind is most active.

My return

It's been a long time since I've been on here. A bit over 2 years? Well, I'm back.
I needed a better way to articulate my thoughts than on tumblr where I'm liable to get sucked in rather quickly in other things.
Stay tuned for new posts from me, feeling like I'll be using this a lot more now.

I need French Toast!!

I've noticed that whenever I go to IHOP now, I always make it my duty to get French toast regardless of time of day. Just something about it makes it so delectable to me. Perhaps, I've developed an addiction for it now... Anywho, waffles and pancakes are dead to me now. French Toast is where it's at.

New Layout

And a new post!

It's been forever I know, but I honestly miss this place especially after tumblr has been gang raped by lames. Anyways...

Life has been well, I guess...

I just need to learn how to cut stupid girls out of my life, but ughh... it's so hard when you like them and you know you can't get over them. I think I just need a real girl or something, I'm looking, but... fuck.

I'm working on getting a job so I can fund my summer somehow. I need shoes, new wrestling shoes/equipment, clothes, and to get ready for college. Need all the money I can get right now.

Apparently, I have a photo shoot with my friends soon and I need to get some bread up by then so I can actually get something. Also should have some Sabakus coming in whenever I can arrange the damn meet up with my friend. Pretty much, I just wish I had a car right now, I hate having to take public transportation when it takes such shorter time if I had my own vehicle or a ride all the time. I also got my driver's license so I may show you guys it tomorrow, for now I just have some make up work to do and then sleep. I have my last few exams next week and then I just have to pray I got high enough marks to get my IB Diploma!

Until next update,
Victory or Death!

Checking In..

So yeah, pulling an all nighter on Sunday wasn't my smartest idea so far especially when I didn't get much done... tsk tsk...



Anyways, school has been going great for me. Just winding down now because I've gotten past the IB Internal Assessments, Oral presentations, extended essays, and all of that. Just have to make up work and my grades will be great.



Wrestling went great, I still feel like I did my best and that's all that matters really. Had it not been for my physique being an issue, I would've went to States, but I'm content with placing 6th in Regionals after not having gone there the rest of my career. I've still got wrestling on my mind and watched the States so I kinda figured out what I need to do to be wrestling at the next level.



Aside from that, I've went through a little bump on my road, but I'm glad I'm over this girl so I can focus on what matters most.

Merry Christmas all!!

So this Christmas, I didn't ask for too much because of our current situation, but I still got gifts anyways.

Some cash from the Godmother
Talarias from my mom
2004 French Blue XIIs and OG Nubuck XIIs from my cousin
Jacket from my dad
I still think Christmas was good for me. I'm getting to that age where I know how to get what I want and how to go about it so gifts weren't really as important for me because all I was going to ask for were for more shoes, clothes, a new cell phone, laptop, Zune HD, Nintendo DSi, and an Xbox 360 Elite with none other than Modern Warfare 2, Tekken 6, Left 4 Dead 2, and Fallout 3 Collector's Edition for that downloadable content goodness. Oh well, that's what getting a job is for. :)
Will post pictures tomorrow after this madness!

Around the Sun Day 7

Finally feels like Christmas now that our family has picked up our Christmas tree. Surprised it's this big this year with our current financial situation, but it looks great. Hopefully it didn't cost too much so I don't feel as bad that our mom is trying to make us forget about our hard times with Christmas around the corner.

So I had a pretty late start with school this morning despite having cleaned up a ton of stuff so that we could leave the house a lot quicker. Decided I wanted to wear my Bandaids one last time before I cleaned them using the fatjodz method of shoe cleaning. Haven't worn them much since then because they were hella dirty and I think I stepped in dog poo so they've been under my bed. Now that I remember, I have to clean up under there..Grr... Anyways, I figured out a way to replace my wrestling shoes after their tragic death on Saturday during my second match against QO and I'm managing to be able to get my wrestling shoe grails, the black/silver Adidas Beijing Adistar wrestling shoes for this year. Can't wait, but I know I'll have to work extra hours for Vance. It'll all be worth it though, been wanting them since last year, but have never had the chance to save up money for it.

Wanted to always take a picture of my cockatoo, but never found a right time to until today.

So today, my foot burst through the soles of my wrestling shoes. Lasted me 4 good years. The bottom reads
"QO 8-8 12/5/09" and the second line reads "Never again!" in reference to how I was cheated in terms of the scoring in my match with Austin Williams, the 171 for QO.

Day before my first match and found myself staring at my wall where my hat was so I decided to take it down and take a shot.

Just realized I desperately need a new bottle of Jason Markks. Sucks not to be able to clean my shoes up properly without it.
