It's been a long while since i've made a post prob. to long actually but wow everything has been so crazy right now. I finally found a Job !!! YEAH.... and i think i'm actually really goin to enjoy this one, for once 8-) Technical Directer/Web Developer for Nuno's Nightclub here in Austin. Basicly getting paid to sociallize at the club alot take some digi pic's and do there web site development, hehe... yea... and I get salary to do this 8-) !!!! Anyway's goin to take that day by day so many things they want to get done in the next couple months.... it'll be somewhat time comsuming, but fun non-the-less 8-)
I went home to my parents house for the last couple day's sorry for those of you i didn't get to see 8-( i'll be back 8-) I really needed to come home lifes been rough the last couple weeks no food, money, gas, ect... I didn't even have the gas to get home i had to borrow 5 bucks from Tanya 8-) (so very poor) But once i was home i felt sooooo much better, i really needed the comfort of my family for a couple day's. Came home to a steak dinner, my mom took me grocery shopping 8-) I got a hair cut 8-) My oil Changed 8-) Lot's of landry done 8-) Got to see Amanda and go to the movies 8-) Smoked a bowl with my family 8-) Surprised the shit out of Kristin for a be-lated b-day present 8-) and my dad gave me his old digital camera for my new job 8-) ..... Felt so good to be home for a couple day's.
I stopped by Kristin's house this morning to install Photoshop and sieze my cd back 8-P We ended up going to eat at wendy's and having a really good conversation about dating and realationships. Kinda had me thinking about what i've learned about realtionships and dating over the last several years... some of the biggest mistakes i've ever made has been trying too hard sometimes, plain and simple. Not like it's a secrete to anyone, everyone's mentioned something to me in it regards..... but i can't help it in my mind there is alway's little sweet romantic idea's all the time..... When i'm in a realtionship i'll do little things sometimes just bc, ya know just to see someone smile, like... bring a flower to my gf when we're goin out but also bring an extra for her mom, hourse drawn caridge ride through historic galvaston and flowers waiting at dinner.. ya know y not ?!? (to much?) I don't know that's just me, that's how i am sometimes (esp when i fall in love), not meaning it to be to much just trying to be sweet, and make someone smile. I hope more people see that as more of a strength then a weakness.... guess it boils down to how well you really try to get to know someone......
Kristin gave me back my old Jewel cd, and I forgot how awsome/powerful some of her songs really are (makin Courtney proud 8-P)! And right after having a long talk... I started listening to this one song in paticular, really closely.... Made me think about how true this senario is, sometimes someone can have this effect over you, you can see it in thier eye's, feel it in their arms, feel safetey in its comfort... alway's crave more, yet find yourself holding youself back, bc it almost feels to perfect, like a movie or something (maybe i'm just crazy)! Love is such a hard game to play, especially when you know you've already meet your match.
Near You Always
Please don't say I love you,
those words touch me much too deeply
and they make my core tremble
Don't think you realize the power you have over me
And please don't come so close
It just makes me want to make you near me always
Please don't kiss me so sweet
it makes me crave a thousand kisses to follow
And please don't touch me like that
makes every other embrace seem pale and shallow
Please don't look at me like that
It just makes me want to make you near me always
Please don't send me flowers
they only whisper the sweet things you'd say
Don't try to understand me
your hands already know too much anyway
It just makes me want to make you near me always
And when you look into my eyes
please know my heart is in your hands
It's nothing that I understand, but when in your arms
you have complete power over me
So be gentle if you please 'cause
You hands are in my hair, but my heart is in your teeth
And it makes me want to make you near me always
I want to be near you always
I want to be near you always
I want to be near you always |

1) What celebrity do you think is hotter than all the rest and why?
Such a very difficult? I mean I don’t find celebrities that mind boggling in the first place but let’s see….. Elizabeth Hurley!
2) Describe yourself in 5 words
Sweet, Honest, Sincere, Creative, Comforting
3) What is your major goal in your life and why?
To have the best life that I can be able to create for myself and my family… I can only hope to enjoy my job, have a beautiful loving wife to return to every night, 2 healthy children, and maybe a little mutt running around that back yard, and of coarse Bandit (my kitty) 8-)
4) Who is your hero?
Hero, hmmm good question… but can’t say that I’ve really had a hero of sorts… I have people I look up to occasionally for certain aspects of my life, culture, and respect. But so many people have done so many good things for the world in small doses I cann't really say that I’ve had one hero or person to look up too.
5) If you could have any one material objects what would it be and why?
Material objects can’t make me happy . period . but I need a house, food, tranporation, and all those good things to make life go by day by day so I guess A house that was mine and completely paid for… Maybe somewhere in the tropics… or hmm snow…. Yea upstate NY or maybe th UK, hehe.. hmmm I duno I’d have to ponder upon that one for awhile 8-P

So I just heard my Aunt passed away last night... She's been fighting breast cancer for the last 5 years or so and they thought about a year ago that it was finally receding and the cemo theraphy was working, but about 6 months ago they found a cancerous tumor in here brain that they couldn't really do anything about because of it's location, and the risk involved. They gave her med's to extend her for a little while but they knew it was only a matter of time. My Cousin has been away at NYU, for her freshman year, she drove back to RI and barely made it there 30 min before she passed 8-( I feel bad, I can only imagine how hard, and your freshman year of college, makes you kinda ? why it's the good people that suffer so. I wish i could make it to NY but I don't really have the time nor the money..... also, I haven't seen that side of my family in several years, so i don't know if those are really the circumstances I want to see the rest of my family under, since i haven't seen them in so long. |

So i've had this ephifiny over that last couple weeks and a change in direction for my carreer goals for the rest of my life. So i've spent the last six years working for a degree in computer and all the certifications that come alonge with it, and now that i'm done i'm looking back and wondering if i made that right choice. I mean when i first started everyone said that it was a great field to go into lots of jobs good money and now i can go make 8.50/ hr answering phones for some retard who doesn't know how to ever turn on his computer.... welll screw it and the whole computer industry.... it's good knowledge to have and a awsome hobby doing web design and maintaining my own server, but I have ' bigger fish to fry '
When we first moved to Austin we had this whole concept of EverydayJunglist.org that we had been working on for several years jsut never got started on it and although it's no where near completion we have so many spining ideas that it hard to keep up with. While everything else is falling into place so quickly, we're meeting investors next sat for a possible 100K long term investment to our cause, HEHE 8-). Last night we pulled a residency bi-weekly at a club on the North side it's a small stepping stone but a really good start to a long journey ahead of us. And, Johnny talked to his mom who is head of elections of State abotu helping us do a Rock the Vote and come to Austin to meet our local senators, law enforcement, and iron out the details of throwing a legit party here in Austin soon. Gota love the politics of dancing 8-) So yeah...... I think i'm goin to emerse myslef in this record store, label we're going to be starting soon. With Logan in Studio Enginering school and myslef in Business school we make a good team paired together... i do the business talking Logan takes care of the talent... it couldn't work out any better then that. Btw our non-profit organization, record store (Logan's parents are helping us fund), Production company, and record label in the works so much stuff to think about, just takin it on step at a time... but WE WILL make it there ONE DAY!! |

So from takin a long extended break from writing poetry... I stepped back and realized that the best way for me to figure out things has alway's been to write. After I wrote this, wow... i remembered how releaving it is to write to help me understand things that have been going on in my head that i for some reason just can't reationalize any other way, for me i guess just a form of pure expression. I wish I could have made a living a a writer, I have so many notebooks of short stories and poetry i'd love to share and brush off the dust, I've been published a couple times before, but there's really no money in getting works published... maybe when i'm rich and have a lot of free time 8-)
Remembering You
Every waking day has its dawn
Behind every dusky shadow, past memories belong
Fighting with the time, star lighting an everlasting hour
Listening as the silence tells a story, before the mornings begun
Remembering every peaceful moment, basking in silence so serine
Intrigued by pure thoughts, as if the moment itself
So precious, could be held in a reoccurring dream
Wishing mere seconds would stand as hours
Hoping each thought, confides assurance
Decisions that reflect past memories shallow footsteps
Ward fear from the forefront, of what seems the likely road to travel
Every thought of uncertainty brings to light vivid experience
For my memory does recall, the many times I've been here before
Standing in the shadows, where past memories belong
Walking from the shadows, approaching slowly with the time
Watching memories and footsteps, fading from my mind
Looking back across the shadows, past experience set aside
I wonder why such virtues can be so frustrating to find
Sitting back and pondering as the candle fades the page
Realizing theirs no point to look for reasons, or try to direct blame
For I know it's just been myself that is tired everyone's games
So to take the road less traveled, and see opportunity arise
To take a risk on love again, just to prove I’m alive
Learning from experience from the footsteps of the past
I know each relationship has be more rewarding then the last

| ITS SNOWING 8-P |
[Feb. 13th, 2004|11:14 pm] |

Wholey SHIT it's snowing it's been a really long time since i'v eseen snow 8-)...... Alright I know it's been while since i've made a post but wow my minds been so crazy lately I haven't even known what to think myself. I had my first test on Wed., I didn't have my book yet, damn amazon didn't send it till today, but I still think i managed to get an A or a B still, I had good notes 8-). Me, Dave, and Logan managed to have a meeting with The Sheriff of Travis County, the Street Sargent of the district, and a Austin Police Narcotics officer about how the event was going to go down this weekend. Kinda funny, Logan and Dave put me in the hot seat most of the time, but I rose to the occasion even impressed myself a little honestly. The only unconvinced person in the room was the narcotics office, but man..... he was like you know people are going to be taking a whole lot of drugs before they get to the event even if your strickt and prettty much garenteed us that their would be TABC and some undercover narcotics office on site. I had all the other cops convinced but man he was a hard one to sway, but we walked out of there and It's was all good.... then the Weather I mean it's SNOWING and a 3 areana out door event! 8-( Ok so stressin over it for awhile we found a club on the North side of Austin willing to let us throw the party their 8-). We had to move around the 18 DJ's on the line-up from 3 arenas to 1 stage hahaha but i think we've worked it out BOYS vs GIRlS tag team contest should get the crowd going a little more too. I wonder who's goign to have to sit at the venue in the cold, and pass out maps to the new event... 5k flyers means that their will be quite a few people that will be coming to the outdoor venue tomm... The CLubs only like 20 min away so it's not bad but still I hope everything goes cool. We'll have to see what happens though, hoepfully everything will work out for the best. While we were at the club I talked to the owner about doing a Drum and Bass weekly , he said he would be game even for Friday night, hehehehe.... We're taking over AUSTIN hehehehehe... slowly 8-P |

| 8-) Cute girl Coming over tonight |
[Feb. 7th, 2004|05:17 pm] |
Alright long entry, but I had so much fun last night. So we went out to sixth street last night to go to the DJ Rap show. Logan's brilliant ass decieded that we would find a free place to park that was like 6 blocks from the club. Walking in the cold sucks 8-P Anyways'. we got to the club and look around at the people that were there and relized not only did they have a dress code to get into the club 8-P (bullshit) but the people standing in line did not seem like the type of people that would want to attend a 'rave' so we deceieded just to walk down sixth pass out some fliers and go home. Once we walked up and down the street like twice we decieded to go into a bar warm up and have a drink or two before going home. I wasn't to impressed with the club at first but then i realized exactly how big the club was, pool tables up stairs and everything, it wasn't that bad. We went up stairs bc they were playing some old school hip-hop "Tribe called quest" 8-) We sat down to have a drink on the couch and I noticed a couple girls in the corner just sitting by themselves. Even though i was told NOT to pass out flier in the club or i'd be kicked out i decieded to go over and tell them about the party. To my surprise i think i ended up sitting over there talking to her for like 3 hours, while Logan and Tanya ran my tab up at the bar passed $50?! It was kinda amuzing when she went to the bathroom i walked over to her freind and asked her to put in a couple good words for me, and she said I don't think i need to, I think your good 8-) So I GOT SOME DIGITS, hehe 8-) So yea I called her this afternoon and told her we were going to have some poeple over tonight and she should stop by. She lives all the way in San Marcos but she's coming out tonight 8-) Yeah, hehe (she's a cutie). Anyway's got to get to cleaning bc were having a bunch of people besides her over tonight to chill. Wish me luck, hehe....... Peace
Oh yea, and last night Logan hit the jack pot, haha...... Chris Beakman was with us last night when we were walking to the car, he was messing around and pretened to trip Chris. Well instead of pretending he hit the concrete right on sixth it was great, good times had by all 8-) |

Another long ass, scary drive to San Marcos this morning! I think i'm going to label I35 esp, south of Austin the scariest and most unsafe road that i think I ever had the displeasure of driving. I was driving to class again today in like a pool of water on I35 when the rain got so bad that I decied to pull off to the feeder road and take a slow drive the rest of the way. I was on the feeder for like 2 minutes when directly parallel on the freeway I saw a SUV lose control, spin into a 180, get hit from on coming traffic, and spin off the highway. So many accidents on that road esp in the rain, does't make feel to comfortable about having to drive that every other day to get to San Marcos.
So, I'm not really one for meeting people online but I've been talking to this girl for awhile that lives here in San Marcos and she wanted me to drop some fliers off to here on campus today. What's the harm right so so I left for class about 2 hours early to meet her in the LBJ and of coarse she didn't show, prob forgot, oh well, it gave me some extra time to work on the stuff for everydayjunglist.org.
You know it seems when it comes to dating; I just can't seem to ward away that black cloud over my head. I need to meet someone I can really relate too, I don't understand how that can be so difficult to find. It seems everytime I seem interested in someone I get "Your such a nice guy but......". Sometimes people are better of as freinds then as lovers, I can understand that. Most of my best friends are girls, some of which i've had the same conversation with at some point in time in the past, but we're better friends, and I respect that. Still i'm 24 and the things that have happened over the last several months have made me think alot about 'love' and relationships. I guess more then anything I miss the simple pleasures of a realtionship: cuddling on the couch, feeling a warm touch close to me, holding hands, laughing and flirting, having someone to talk to even when words aren't needed; Ya know all the little things you take for granteed sometimes when your in a relationship. Anyways, not to say that i'm complaining to much I'm having so much fun being here in Austin and going back to school that I shouldn't have to much time to worry about it, but all just lingering thoughts i've had on my mind for while. Who knows what might happen... I interested in someone but i'm kinda skeptical and not getting my hopes up, for the "your a nice guy, but" might follow shortly after 8-P
Shit already 6:15 ~ To Class I Shall Go, Peace |

| Another Sat Night... Come and Gone |
[Feb. 1st, 2004|11:32 am] |
Another Saturday night gone bye and another good time had by all in Austin. It wasn't that fasinating last night but we we did get about 500 fliers passed out by the end of the night on 6th. It's been really interesting having both Amanda and Johnny in town at the same time.. I was kinda skeptical about it all at first, it wasn't paanned that way at all but they both showed up at the same time yesterday. Everything was civil and we went down to Tanya's about 9 and headed down to 6th to get a dirnk and hit up the streets. We spent the good majority of the night walking up and down 6th passing out fliers for the party, and stop in and had a beer at a bar along the way for a short break. Productive but somewhat uneventful night in Austin.
Its been really interesting seeing Amanda in town staying with us. She's been really cool, and I'm actually really glad that we're finally able to have a friendship again.. As much BS that has happened in the past it's really comforting to be able to have fun, laugh, and hang out with her on a frienship basis.
I think were going to head out to the anime' festival later today if we ever et the motivation to get up and get out of the house. Anyways, we have house guests today so i'm goin to be a good host and hit the kitchen to cook up some bacon and eggs ;) Peace |

| I really Needed Last Night! |
[Jan. 31st, 2004|01:50 pm] |
Last night was deffinently interesting, at like 9pm Logan got a random phone call from Chris Beakman to go out to this Keg party. I was a little sceptical about it at first but I've wanted to go out and have some pointless fun on the town since i've got here so what the heck. I actually had a lot of fun, we went over to Tanya's house and hung out and had a drink or two and then took off to go to the party only two blocks from Tanya's apt it was great, only 100 drunken stumbles away ;) Good beer, and good times - Keg Ziggen Bock, hehe, yea no Bub Light YEA. It's kinda funny i think i can prob count on one hand how many times a girl has actually come foward and just straight start hitting on me but last night at a party just randomly out of the middle of no where it was back to back. Although, came home with no numbers, it was great to actually feel like i was getting hit on, kinda boosted my self esteem a little bit ;). We left the party at like 3:30 and went to go get the dro we had ben trying to locate all night but we had to drive all the way to William Cannon way on the South side ;/. The guy we met last night was fucking awsoem when we first got there he loaded a bowl of some bomb ass THC Oil ?!? Whatever it was it was great one hit and i was high, yea, but the price $80g WOW, fuck that! We hung out there for a long while last night and then headed back to drop off Tanya and then all the way back to the North side. I don't think we actually made it home till almost 5a. Logan cooked some Bacon and Egg's and we watched some South Park and to my availe it's 7am shit time to go to bed, and ask the ? where has the night gone? I had an awsome night last night I just shood have gone to bed a little earlier. I love Austin, but I miss my Houston crew <3
Out to hit up the Clubs tonight - 6 Street! Johnny should be here in about an hour with the fliers he picked up from the wharehouse last night! Flier Flier Flier, PARTY PARTY PARTY FEB 14th MANOR, everyone that can make it better be there! $8Girls $10Guys! Free place to stay while space is still available, I think there is prob 4 people as of now staying for sure but i've still got an empty spot in my bed ;P haha
I'm hungery, got to go get some munchies, Mom's on the phone Computer probs. Why is it that everyone calls me to answer their computer probs, am I a computer professional or something, ummm oh yea.... shit I am.. haha 8-P |

| My 1st Entry |
[Jan. 30th, 2004|05:11 pm] |
Alright. My 1st live Journal Entry and not to be my last this time ;) I need to be able to stay in touch with my friends from Houston and since most of them are all on here I see no better way to accomplish that then crack down and start my own Journal. I miss you Kristin and Courtney, my inspiration for starting the journal to begin with, Love you ;)
So, I may have found a job today ;) I went to Spherion and talked to a really nice lady, she gave me this IT test just basic questions about computer hardware and operating systems, easiest IT exam i've ever taken, it only took me like 15 minutes. When I walked back into her office she asked me what was wrong I said nothing i'm done with the test, she was like oh ok that was fast. She asked how it was, I told her I guarantee I didn't miss a single question, she just laughed and said she wouldn't have a prob placing me in some postion by the end of next week ;). She said she would call me next week to come down and take a piss test ;/ I've never had to take a piss test before, kinda funny since i've worked as a Day Care Teacher, Network Admin, and worked at Sai Software last year, can't beleive i've gone this far. Thanks to Tanya, I'll be ready for it when it comes around, she had like 3 different kinds of ready clean left from Bizzar Bizzar, so i'm not so concerned about it ;)
So Logan and I are trying to Get EveryDayJunglist.org up and running before the party on the 14th haha, should be interesting, there's is still a lot of programing work to get done, yeah, tha's all me 8-P All the DJ's and the Venue are secured for the party and the Fliers should be in our hands by this weekend so everythings kinda hectic right now and imagine I don't even have a job yet and schools not even in full gear yet i'm about to be really busy for awhile! That's good though it will keep me on my toes.
So yea, till l8r peace |
