By the way, I hate it when people write “Dear blah blah… love blah blah” status updates.
Facebook is not a letter. It’s not even tangible.
Shut. the. fuck. up.
Love and traffic.
As I was sitting in my car, grooving out to Earth, Wind, and Fire and Britney Spears, I thought to myself “Fuck, I fucking hate traffic.” Seriously, I hate spending 10 hours a week staring at license plates and sluggish cars. But following that thought was something a little more pertinent. “Am I happy with my life right now?”
I don’t know. My life is currently...

This recurring word: fulfillment
In response to my earlier post:
“A happy move to a new home or a place of employment is in the works. This movement will usher in positive new energy. Yes it is time for a move. I’m working with your other angels to keep your spirit high during this move. Although it may seem as if this move requires a lot of effort, when you work with me and other angels it can be a time of great joy. I will...

The wonders of the brain.
It’s amazing how much time can pass and how much healing can be done when you choose to control your mind instead of allowing it to control you. I’ve learned to allow myself that one intense, choking and sobbing cry, then let my thoughts pass as they enter my mind. There is so much we can do for ourselves and so much pain we can save ourselves when we learn to control our minds and...

In the old days, checking people out was the normal popular thing to do. You see a “P.Y.T.”? Then you are checking him/her out! You make eye contact with someone else and he/she gives you a smile? Then he/she is checking YOU out!
Today, it is more likely that someone else is checking you in somewhere. Which is

Ushering in a new and hopeful month with a recap of the shittiest month to date - July.
Seriously, I’ve had bad days, even bad weeks; I get really unlucky when (coincidentally) it’s that lovely time of the month. I’ve suffered consequences from stupid decisions and tried to fix things but have only made them worse. But I have never, ever, ever, had such a horribly consecutive...
A reminder
“When at first you try to sit and meditate, your mind runs away in all directions. You think it is impossible to go deep. But if you sit still and persist long enough, you will begin to feel that wonderful silence of God. When your mind is withdrawn, centered in Him, the world is forgotten and you find in that silence a happiness greater than any worldly pleasure. That state, when you are...

I swear, I could make a movie on my life.
All the recent occurrances in my life have been somehow thought through, molded, and carefully planned. It’s as though I’ve been in a daze, and someone wanted me to find my third eye and see the reality of my situation. All the pain, suffering, hardships, and obstacles I’ve overcome and learned from have lead me up to this point - to make a crucial decision about my future, my...
I can honestly say I have no idea what to do with my life at the moment. I never thought I’d be in such a complex, uncertain, and fragile state of mind. At times I remind myself to go with the flow and live in the unknown, to revel in it and embrace all the opportunities that lay ahead of me, but at the same time, the unknown scares the shit out of me.
Because of my recent job, I’ve...

Brief update on my life.
Currently hacking up a lung, reveling in the only moments I can salvage of my weekend before I submit myself once again to a week of 50 hours of “modern day slavery”. Sacramento’s weather has inflicted upon me unbearable allergies and asthma, to the point that I can feel my lungs suppressed by layers and layers of dust and dirt. Everything has unfolded in a way I never would have...

9. How important you think education is
I think education is VERY important. That said, there are a variety of ways to be educated and there isn’t just one correct way. As long as you are willing to learn, you will be educated.
Well said! I wish people (specifically judgmental Filipino parents) would realize that a $100,000 education doesn’t equate to the only way to be...
This could really be a good life.

TIPS ON PUMPING GAS
I don’t know what you guys are paying for gasoline…. but here in California we are paying up to $3.75 to $4.10 per gallon. My line of work is in petroleum for about 31 years now, so here are some tricks to get more of your money’s worth for every gallon: Here at the Kinder Morgan Pipeline where I work in San Jose, CA we deliver about 4 million...

“Probably the toughest event on the planet.” -Toughmudder.com
I know I haven’t been up to par on my physique as much as I want to be. Damn, if only I had that same stamina, endurance, strength, and body as I did back in my Varsity basketball days. I can’t believe it’s been over 4 years since I had an intense work out, practice, game, and conditioning. With that said, I promise...

A little backstory to this clip before you watch it:
Will Smith’s father abandoned him and his mother when he was a child, and when Will was finally getting into show business and making a name for himself, he tried to snake his way back into his life like nothing happened. Will co-wrote this episode, and James Avery (Uncle Phil) said “this scene was the hardest thing I’ve ever had...
