Update of Sorts

So it's time to update you on my going ons (cuz this is my blog & I can be self centered & absorbed if I wanna be);
I bought a truck a week ago, waiting for my next paycheck to tag & insure that bad boy. Coincidently, I'll be getting the bike titled at the same time, still has a pawl spring that needs to be fixed before it's road ready though.
I start school September 7th! Going for my Bachelor in Business. Super stoked about that. Finally putting my life in the direction I always dreamed I could go but never could find the road until now.
I have some new ink lined up, hopefully be getting that started in the next week or so.
Be on the lookout for my photography site to spring up in the next month or so. I've had alot of interest shown in my work recently & I think it's about time I make an online portfolio to show off what I've got so far. That being said, I may venture into live model work, if anyone is interested, hold that thought until I'm ready.
I'm trying to think of anything else, but that's about it. Hope all of you are doing great & again thank you so much for taking time out to read my ramblings. Means the world to me.
Until next time....

Forgiveness pt. 2

So I last left you with a question about forgiveness & how hard it is to do under circumstances that were unbecoming on both sides.
Honestly, it's still taking time to work out, but we did manage to have a civil discussion & in the end, both of us decided it was better to work things out then to let something that, let's face it, is petty in the long run, ruin what was once a brothership (brothership you ask, that's not a word is it? It is now bitches! Doesn't feel like a brotherhood, closer really, and friendship just isn't strong enough. So, brothership. There you go, a new word & definition brought to you by the fat one. Enjoy). We both agree, we can't go back to how it was & we know it'll take time & effort to get the trust back, but who knows, in the end it could possibly be greater then it ever was.
I can't speak for him (guess he needs to start a blog huh?) But I myself am looking forward to seeing where this thing ends up.
So let me challenge you, is there a torn relationship over trivial, petty differences in your life? Do you miss that person? Do you sometimes look at their picture or see them on your social networking site but you just can't bring yourself to make that first step? Don't let this ruin what could be your own beautiful brother/sistership. Sometimes, it takes the bigger man/woman to make that first step. Who knows, maybe they have been feeling the same about you.
Think about it.

Memorial Day

It's Memorial Day, how Are you planning on spending it? Some people have to work, some people have the day off & plan to celebrate with fireworks & a cook out or Maybe a trip to the beach. Some people have already started their celebrating this past Friday when Memorial weekend started. However you plan to spend your day/weekend, please, be safe.
That being said, How many of you remember what today is about? Originally started to remember the African-American men Who died in the Civil War, after WWI it broadened to be a day of remembrance for all who have died in any conflict past & present. I'm sure many of you have a family member or friend who is currently or has served in our Armed Forces at some point. My Grandpa served in the Korean War. I actually have one of his dogtags, It's been hanging from my rear view in just about every car I've Ever drove. My Grandma can recite his id number to this day, I Guess after writing 360 some odd letters it tends to stick in your memory banks.
But how many of us actually stop to Think about what these men & women have been through? What Their going through? How many times have you thanked a vet for the sacrifices they have made for us to have the freedom to sit at home or work & pull our phone out or sit at the computer & check our Twitter feed or Facebook status?
I think in today's age, Where we have instant access to anything we want, we tend to take Things for granted, be absent minded.
So my challenge to you today is to take the time out of whatever your schedule is & Thank a vet for what they've done. I personally have already wrote my Grandpa & one of my close friends who did two tours in Iraq & thanked them. It you've already done this then good for you.
Let's also remember there are men & women Still deployed & they have family & loved ones who want them home. Keep them in your thoughts & prayers today.
I personally want To thank every Vet & anyone who has contributed to them for all they have done for Me. I am eternally grateful.
Think about it.

Rapture 2011

So it's May 21, 2011 and the "Rapture 2011" is upon us. Or is it?
I for one am slightly pissed about this claim for several reasons. 1; I've heard several different arguments that all come to the conclusion that today is d-day, from "Its exactly a year & a half before the ""2012"" prediction is to happen & God is coming to prove that theory wrong" to "all the major events, ie the flood, ice age, etc, have been studied & every 7000 years something big happens & this is Next". Ok, Really? Can you not hear the contradiction in that?! If you believe so much in your religion to say "God is coming back today & we can prove it!" Then shouldn't you remember the passage in the Bible that says "No man knows the day nor the hour of His return."? Seams to me if you were as gung ho in your beliefs as you claim to be, you'd study any & EVERYTHING before staking such a huge claim as something that totally goes against & undermines your beliefs core structure.
Which brings me to my other problem with this situation. 2; What is wrong with us, as a people, that we've become so lazy we can't even commit to a belief 100%? I mean, it's a belief! Doesn't require anything more Then believing. And yet somehow even that has become to big of a responsibility for us to undertake.
All I'm saying is if your gonna believe in something, and commit to it enough to come up with a theory such as the one above, at least know what your talking about. I am by no means nor am I claiming to be a role model for you to base your Christian/religious beliefs on, so please don't Think I'm saying be me. I am telling you to keep an open mind though, & if your gonna commit, don't be lazy, give it 110%.
Think about it.
