blog blog blog im going to blog...instead of doing my self reflection

I just realized i havent blogged in a while, I do most of my stuff on twitter. Then i figured, since no one reads this anyways, ill just use it as a way to vomit my thoughts and concerns or if i think of anything interesting, this is where ill do it, because 140 characters isn't enough to REALLY express myself. I think when i started blogging, i started blogging for the wrong reasons, thinking i was already bloggin to an audience that was non-existent.


bboyed today for the first time in a looooong 3 months. Now my legs are KILLING me, almost forgot how much it work bboying put on my legs (ie knees). Yeah im definitely going to practice again, but ill slowly be easing my way back to it. These new kids are creepin up on me man gotta put back in work.

FINALLY got my new car last month (11-7-09), yes its THE 2010 honda civic si sedan, not that any of you care, or even read this blog anymore lol. the car is awesome, i just dont like it when fuckers try to come up next to me and race. I'm like "wtf dude, how small is your penis that you want to race a brand new car, go fuck yourself you jackass, im not gonna waste my gas fuck face!" im saying this in my head of course.

My 7 years is coming up with kristine. HOLY FUCK 7 YEARS! lol and so is her bday, and christmas. december has been THE busiest months the past 7 years, for other reasons than the ones i just mentioned, but thats a whole different post. more details on her bday/anniversary/christmas later.

"thanksgiving" was cool, always good to spend time with family. I just wish native americans didnt have to die in order for us to celebrate this holiday...SMH and thats all i have to say about thingstaken.


"blog like no one is reading". LOVE that quote, why? because it makes sense to me. If i think no one is reading, then i have less stress on what im blogging about, and therefore my blogs come out more genuine.

STAY POSITIVE

PLEASE! to much negativity going on. I just wish more people took it upon themselves to reflect on things they say or do, and think "is this doing any good to my well being?". so I tend to tweet about being positive. I've always been a firm believer in energy is contagious, really ANY kind of energy is contagious. For me if im positive i can only hope i can pass that on to the next person. LET'S GO!

whew! that was a good one till next time...

hello? (echos)

'09, BRING IT ON!!

When I think about what kind of year I had in 2008, I never would have thought id be where I'm at right now. within the past 12 months I've joined 2 more non-profit orginizations (KAMP, Anakbayan San Diego ) aside from zulu which helped me grow into a better person, helped me re-identify with my filipino-american self, all thanks to the homie Ray of cool kids, who introduced me to these orgs, made new friends, got closer to old friends, I VOTED, mine and krisitne's relationship has gotten a whole lot stronger, my eyes have been opned up to things i never would have thought of in 2007, and CHANGE for me, for my community and for this country.

It's amazing how much change can happen to one person in the course of 12 months, but with these changes came more challenges. Challenges like finding a new balance in life trying to fit in friends, bboying, organizations, school, family, girlfriend, RE.DEF, yeah 2008 was a BIG year for me. Having to balance all of these helped/forced me to mature a little bit more, which isnt such a bad thing, all this change just means i learned how to write reminders, and made me realized that i need to start using an organizer haha.

A lot of growth happend this past year and much like this blog, it was unstructured, it was more like a "take it and run with it" kinda year, you know?, I didn't even think id be doing things to better my quality of life. Just like the years past one of my biggest goals was to make sure I try to keep my friends close and build on new friendships, and this year was probably the best year for this, not for the purpose of saying "OH YEAH I HAVE THIS MANY FRIENDS BLAH BLAH BLAH", naw , not me, but for the purpose of knowing who my friends REALLY are.

As Great as 2008 was, It did have its low points. One being that the Chargers lost in the AFC championship game against the patriots, ah well. Another is the san diego padres whole season, yeah having 99 looses in one season is never a good thing. There was actually a point and time this past year that i felt like I was just existing not living meaning there were some emotional breakdowns. My grandmother in the PI passed away, but i couldn't go with my family to attend her funeral because school was starting at the same time, and since the first couple weeks of school is so packed and teachers drope students not there on either the first day of class or the first week of class I just couldn't pay for my classes then get dropped :-( . but even with all that said, 2008 was still a great year
