| Hello you people out there in internet land,
With the coming of the new year (2011) I kind of want to start something new as well. To be precise, I want to start a whole lot of new things. In the past, I realize that I talk a lot about doing stuff but never really following through. Let's see if this year I can follow through at least some of the bullshit that comes out of my gob. To start off with, I feel like I want to start persuing my interests and hobbies. All I ever do is end up either playing WoW or CoD:BO when I'm bored and leave no time for new and ...exciting hobbies? I have a lot of interest in a couple things, cooking, video editing, calligraphy, to name a few. These interests always get pushed to the side though because I'm always either playing games or just simply too lazy to start. We'll see how well things turn out.
As of right now, I've been researching fountain pens. I know that's a weird thing to research, but I think the mechanics of the various forms of them and the interesting writing styles that they are capable of are quite fascinating. I don't mean to be a professional fountain pen...er or w/e but I'd like to see wussup about that and maybe track down a cool one so I can doodle or scribble with it. So to restate, Goal number 1 of the new year - Track down a fountain pen that I like and scribble and doodle with it. + learn how to clean/perform maintenance on it to keep it in tip top shape.
Once I accomplish this goal (hopefully in the next week or so) I'll continue to doodle/scribble but also move onto hobby/interest number 2 - To Be Announced. | | |
| -Warning!! This is a semi stupid rant about a commercial I just watched. I'm extremely bored AND extremely confused, That is all.
Kid's bop 18? hmmmm I think not. Who the frick in their right mind would buy a CD of amateur kids singing famous hippy hoppy songs? I get the whole idea of "Songs For Kids BY Kids!!!" Fun concept, terrible product. If you listen to these Kids Bop bullshits you'll hear such famous songs such as blah blah blah hippyhoppy blah blah blah. If i wanted to hear terrible songs sung by terrible little kids I would just surf the millions upon millions of videos on youtube. Then maybe I could actually find something worth listening too. And there's actual 18 of these things?!?! who the frick keeps buying these things?
P.S. Some Kids bop sings songs are actually recorded BY kids already. Justin Beaver, Selena Gomez and all those young stars ARE ALREADY FRICKING KIDS!! no need to remake it even worse.
Sigh, in American marketing you can sell just about anything, including just terrible remakes of popular stuff. Then again, many of America's teenybopper bands and such are just terrible remakes of older terrible teenybopper stuff.
Here's a pic, happy Derrick?

| So wussup guys, It's been an little minute there. (few days actually) I'm currently tearing my left fingers up learning to play the guitar. I recently wasted money and bought a new one. So far my musical repertoire on guitar is the G major chord.....and that's pretty much it. But then again, all the songs these days use only 3-4 chords, one of them being G Major so I'm 1/4 the way to where I want to be. I don't really know why I'm suddenly interested in guitar, most guys simply pick up guitar to in turn pick up chicks.....but I already have a chick so I guess I'm in it for the music? or it's just something fun to do. I never realized that my weakass calluses from violin wouldnt translate over to guitar and my fingers...they hurt to say the least. It's tottaly gonna be worth it when I'm jamming on stage with KISS.....welllll probably not, but I can always dream can't I? Learning the Guitar has always been a small little goal of mine that I've never been motivated enough to do but with my sudden boredomness and the strange urge I feel to do so, I think I'll see how far I get. I know tons of people have little things that they wish they could do but never end up doing. I should heed my own advice when I tell people to go out and do what makes them happy while they can. Life tends to catch up with people eventually at some point and they are forced to run the Rat-Race or so it's called. When that time strikes, people tend to ignore or forget their former wishes and desires. I guess I'm starting now while I can because I feel like something as simple as learning to play the guitar will be something I'll be unable to accomplish sometime in the ever approaching future. What's something that you've always wanted to do but never had the time/patients/money to do? | | |
| Meh....Not really. I think I'll make that a theme...start off my blogs with "Not really". Meh, w/e. I think that everybody likes to think of themselves as level headed people who are calm and steady in most situations. But in all actuality, people freak out and stress about little things ALL the time w/o even realizing it. I'm a culprit of such freak outs as well, even though I'd like to think I'm calm in a lot of other situations. I know I freak out about ants and all sorts of bugs in my house. Not the "AHH IM SCARED OF BUGSSSS" but more of the ....huh..more bugs, god I hate bugs... type of dealy. I freak out when people spill drinks and or leave crumbs of all sorts in my room w/o cleaning them up. Why you ask? cuz the lead to more BUGSSSSS!! :P See the correlation there? I freak out when people leave trash and empty cups and dirty dishes in my room too. Again, because it leads to BUGSSSSS!!...I really think this has turned into a York Hates BUGSSSSS!! commentary. An no not "A Bugs Life" or w/e it was called, I actually liked that movie, but real life BUGSSSSS!! And when I say "freak out" I dont mean like AHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!BUGSSSSS!!!!!! I'm mean more of feel this intense annoyance that sometimes we voice with either sarcasm or passive aggressive undertones. I'm going to try to not "freak out" about the little things in life anymore. I think it'll lead to a more stress free life, even though mine is pretty free of stress as it is, but hey, who needs extra stress? The answer to that question, children, is Nobody. So I will try not to freak out and be level headed and calm and less annoyed at the little things in li...BUGSSSSS!!..j/k haha but seirously...I'm gonna try not to freak out or get excited about small things.
Unless it's Katy Perry's new video California Girls...that shit is hawtttt.
Like fire, seriously, shit is dope O.O
p.s. Russel Brand is a lucky c*nt

| Not really. I think I'm not ambitious enough to attain such wealth. I don't think many of us could comprehend just how much f*cking money a billion dollars is. Add to the fact that most Billionaires boast more than just ONE billion. If we think about it, even some of the most glamorous celebrities who live the lives that we all want can't boast anywhere near 1 billion dollars. I personally think it's a bit excessive, though I wouldnt mind being the owner of such excess. Many like to live by the notion that "money ain't sh*t" but it's unfortunate that this day and age requires at least SOME form of monetary stability. There are the other extreme as well too, the "get rich or DIE trying" types. I don' think I'm anywhere near the extremes. I think I want to live for comfort. I like comfortable things and being comfortable 24/7. There are other personal goals strewn about in my heart but ONE of my goals, the one that's important to this blog is to live comfortably. It's sad but I want to be able to afford comfort for my entire life. To not have to worry about bills or charges or anything. That might be a little bit out of my reach to NOT have to worry at all but I think if my family and I are comfortable then that's enough. It's alright to seek out fortune and fame. It's just not what I want or will do. :P
p.s. I know i ramble and this entry isn't particularly coherent....at all. w/e deal with it :P | | |
