#earthhour

I know this has not gotten as much publicity as recent movements, but it has an extremely good mission statement and requires absolutely no money from you or extra time. It is very simple : turn off all your non- essential electricity consuming devices. You save a bit on your bill, plus your helping the earth out a little by participating in this event. It happens at 8:30pm local time so if you are on the pacific coast like I am, you have  a little more than hour left until we do it. It is only for an hour, hence the name Earth Hour. I hope you choose to participate and have a great weekend! Stay safe. Live Life Happy. Peace and One Love.

I love all kinds of music and collaborations between amazing artist makes for even more amazing music! Miike Snow singer, Andrew Wyatt, wrote and recorded It Won't Let You Go as a collaboration with the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. The track will appear on INGRID Volym 1, a collection of music by members of the Swedish collective that includes Peter Bjorn and John, Miike Snow and Lykke Li. This song definitely makes me happy :)

TIME

We never seem to have enough of it. But that's because we make it that way. Think about this. How fast did you read that sentence? Extremely fast right? Now look how much you have read since I asked you that question. Now more time has passed, dam that seems like it was a whole lot of time in between from then and now. Why? Because you thought about that way. You are the only person who can put that perception of time what you want it, sometimes unconsciously, to be. So I decided to start something new. (yet another new thing) No emphasis what so ever on "age". I try to not put emphasis on time, but it is difficult when the whole world goes by it. It is not a bad thing, it helps us not be in one huge blob of mess. But age is something I would like to discard. It doesn't matter anymore, I passed 18 and 21 so I have no more "restrictions" for the most part. I will do what I got to do when I am ready for it, not when my age requires me to. I feel like I am getting extremely close to the next chapter in my life, the one where I completely kill myself by working hard all day everyday, and will not rest until I have attained the goals I have set for myself. Which are extremely high. I will never settle for anything less. I do not want to not live pay check to pay check. I want to live beyond that. I do not want to just be able to give money to people. I want to set up a whole organization for that cause. And I will not stop until I am there. I will start to surround myself with nothing but positive people who will influence my life in a great way for many years to come. I am slowly choosing my people, and I know some of them I have not yet met but they will come. I know that one day, the term "all of a sudden" will be more true than ever, and that day I will be called many names, and had a lot of stuff thrown in my face from a lot of people that I "knew" from before, but it is just another phase that has to be gone through. The people who really matter you and are an important part of you life wont mind what your doing, and the other people who "care" so much about certain things that are obviously not important, well that's a story that I do not have to tell because you already know how it ends. I will move out of my parents house eventually, but what is the rush? I have had some people try to call me up on that, but I have the rest of my life to live on my own. I have a great relationship with them, there are no problems, and once I leave, it will NEVER be the same. And yes, it is possible to do great things at your parents house. So do not pay attention to all those people who try to talk shit talking about "you have this and this but still at your parents house?" If you are happy then it shouldn't matter. If there are problems with them, if you are not doing anything in your life but making it harder for them, then there I agree it is definitely time to move out. Marriage is not just something you can call quits. It should be what it was intented to be. FOR LIFE. I understand sometimes stuff happens, no one can argue with that. But take it serious, "test out" the person before signing those papers. Because after honeymoon phase is over, that is when you really get to know the person, and you might get stuck with someone you do not even know. Kids is just another thing. It is not the same as having a pet, a bf/gf, buying something new. This is a person, with feelings, needs, and wants. Your life will NEVER be the same either. Not saying it necessarily an a bad way, but with the emphasis of how big and important this really is. You should have a kid with someone you trust. Someone who you will not hate in a couple of years. Think before doing stuff. Protect yourself. Girls, don't try to trap a guy by getting pregnant. It will NOT work. Guys, think before you go sticking your stuff in. Always think if you were to get this girl pregnant, how would it be? If you don't like the answer, then don't do it. There will be more girls. Be careful! Do things when you are comfortable not because "age" is telling you that you should. FUCK WHAT SOCIETY WANTS YOU TO DO. They don't have to live with yourself every single day. You do. Think about what makes you smile and do it. Live to help others. Have a great week! Live Life Happy. Peace and One Love.

UMF

as many of you know. this week has been Miami Music Week. And like many of us, we can't yet afford to go down there, so the promoter for Ultra Music Festival have done the next best thing. Live Stream!!! check it out http://www.youtube.com/umftv. The amount of artists and producers is insane, too many to choose from. But hopefully the festival goes smooth and maybe next year we can attend it! It is also Friday! I hope everyone has a great day and weekend as well. Be safe and have fun. As for me, I work all weekend overnights, which wasn't too bad last night. So enjoy your weekend for me, as I only got one thing on my mind right now which get me through work. COACHELLA! have a great day! & enjoy this tune. Peace and One Love.

love in the rain.

Cold weather, rain, wind. When you think of this, you automatically think that you should normally be wearing a jacket, some pants, maybe even a beanie to keep warm. But this was definitely not the case on Saturday. While I cannot disclose the details behind my actual job and the stuff that happens, I would like to share a bit of the stuff that I already know. It was simply amazing to know, that even though it was raining, and it was extremely cold, many people decided to still go ahead and attend the festival. It was a great vibe out there regardless of the weather. The love of music was felt extremely strong and the positivity and love was out there and the whole world knew it. It was cold, wet, and windy. But how often can you honestly say that you attended a festival in the rain? Everyone there was so nice and happy. For the exception of one particular person, everyone I encountered had a huge smile and was friendly, even offered me some of their stuff that they had bought. (water, food) It really irritates me when people judge this type of music festivals and say that "all people go there is to do drugs and other illicit activities." YES it does happen, people DO do these things there, but not EVERYONE. And you would be surprised all the different walks, ethnicity, and ages that the festival goers are compromised of. I loved seeing 50yr adults there sharing all the love alongside people half there age. The power of music is extremely strong and reaches out to all kinds of people. For those few hours that you are there, the whole world does not matter and you just start being yourself. You dance, you shuffle, and you share the moment with strangers that you probably will not see again. Although many people have established friendships that started at festivals. I strongly recommend everyone to attend at least one. Not so you can be like everyone else. Not so you can go and engage in illegal activities. But so you can experience first hand why people spend our hard earned money on these types of gatherings. It is something that is hard to explain, and better suited as a first hand experience. Eye candy everywhere, friendliness, amazing music sets, amazing vibes, and on true love is all you will get. Of course, you have to be careful because there has been some rare negative occurrences, but that why there are many security there to keep your experience safe. My goal is to take as many of friends as I can to one, and hopefully spark that interest and share the love of festivals for many years to come. Have a great week! It's going to be a beautiful one. Peace and One Love.

Social Experiments

They are so much fun. You learn so much about people in general, or a certain person(s). Try one, not even to be an asshole or anything, just to learn about others, as well as yourself. Sometimes we really do have to see how our "friends" would act if certain things happened. Or learn how people would view us if we acted/looked/had stuff happen to us. Try one, and enjoy the results. Just remember, don't ask a question that you don't want to hear the answer to. Have a great weekend!

Confidence is everything

Walk confidently in the direction of your dreams- Thoreau

Super excited!

It had been a rough couple of months. But everything is starting to fix itself, and I thank the Universe for it. I just scheduled for a couple of days at work, so I'm quite excited about going to these events and getting that paycheck. School is also working itself out, and I am so excited to learn things that I am going to utilise in the future. Patience is the most difficult thing to master, but those who do, master the universe. Trust me, it seems like something far away in the future will never come. But if there is one thing that I have learned, is that time stops for NO ONE. It will keep going. So yes, it may take a while to come, but it WILL. For example, when i was in Elementary School, I was just counting the days until I did not have to attend school anymore. This was like 4th grade, meaning I had 8 years to go! That literally felt like forever. But guess what? I graduate 4 years ago already. That means 12 years passed by, in what now seems like a blink of an eye. The next big thing was being 21 to be able to legally consume alcohol and attend some events. It is now here and it feels great but I feel old haha. So yes, it will come. Learn to be patient, and you will learn how to enjoy life better. Live for the moment, and stop trying to do things that might not suit you for your age right now. We are too busy trying to grow up that we forget how old we really are and the things that we should be doing. Focus on school, not a job. You have the rest of your life to work, and you will work, so why not study first, learn some great stuff that you can use, and make some good money later on? It is a great plan. Take risks. Experience life. Every single day of your life you learn something. Even when something negative happens, that is experience too! So take it! Use it! Better yourself. It had been a tough couple of months. But it is getting better, and with hard work, patience, and dedication, will only continue to get better. The most amazing months are coming up, and I am excited. Summer is just around the corner. Study hard, work harder, and do work! Have a great week! Peace and One Love.

just a little something

I found this comment on a video on youtube. thought I'd share it with you.
"I think the point of religion is not to follow what makes the most scientific sense to you logically but what helps you most in self improvement. It can be a powerful instrument of improvement of the self or destruction of the self. When religion begins to be used as a mechanism for control, then it is a tool for harm." - bubblelink47

Religion is not what it use to be. There are more open minded people asking questions about it. But it all comes down to simply, if you believe in it or not. Nothing else. It ends there. Have a great peaceful day. Meditate some. It does your body and soul good. Peace and One Love.

i feel like blogging

so this weekend was pretty laid back. I really did not do much but clean my room. It was really bad. I finally opened most boxes that I brought from the other house and I sorted everything out. My room looks great, and I cleaned it all. I just need to redo the closet because one of the shelves is falling down with all the weight. After that, I can bring in my nightstand inside and organize all my socks and boxers. I have a huge collection of magazines and books, and I'm excited to continue my collection. Knowledge is power. I have always loved reading about new stuff that I can learn. My goal in life is to learn as much as I can, from all different varieties of things. My only sadness in this life, is that I can only live mine. I would want to live from different points of views. But we get what we get and we must do what we came to do. I am actually glad I didn't do much though, because every single weekend up until May, is booked with work. And I love it. Festivals, Raves, Nascar, all kinds of stuff. I am excited for it all, and getting that paycheck is an added bonus. I do not feel like I am working, if I am on a good post. I guess that is the feeling you get when you work somewhere that you truly enjoy. I am not saying I am planning on staying at my job forever. But I do plan on learning as much as I can while I am working there. Because one day I will be on the other side of things and will for sure appreciate all the people working the events. This week looks like it is going to be great, and I am confident that a new chapter in my life is approaching very fast. I am more than excited for it. I hope everyone was safe and had fun. We have "longer" days now, meaning it gets darker later. It is good for those people who need an excuse to stay out a little later while the sun is still out haha. Summer is fast approaching as well, so if you are those type of people who want a summer body, now is the time to start getting ready for it. Spring break is also around the corner so get ready! Have a great week, always smile. We don't know where we are heading, but if we properly prepare for it, we will be ready to make the most out of what we get. Peace and One Love

It is Friday!

Trust me, we have to have some fun sometime, because our life should be enjoyed. Do something nice for someone if you have the chance. Get out there! Stay safe and sane haha. Peace and One Love.

So last night..

I finally watched a video that I saw being posted all over facebook. I almost did not watch because of the length (30min) But a friend of mine told me to watch it so I did and I am really glad that I did. The video is about a filmmaker, who met a boy out in Uganda. He becomes friends with him and learns his story. He is touched by it and outraged over why it is happening and who is doing these horibble things to the children population there. He promises Jacob (name of the boy) that he will be stopped. So over the course of the years, he sets up an organization called Invisible Children that helps children by providing them jobs, schools, and safe refuge from this guy who is causing this horrific problem. The guy's name is Joseph Kony, and the goal of the video is to make him famous. But not in the normal sense, to glorify and respect him, but so that everyone in the world knows who he is, and what he does. To bring awareness to this cause and pressure the goverment to help out and capture this guy as soon as possible since past efforts to arrest him have failed. I truly support this movement, and I believe it is important to bring awareness to it. I plan on helping as much as I can, and spreading the word out. The only thing that I did not like about the way this all went down, is that many people basically just jumped on what everyone else is doing. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that it did trend, after all, that was the point of the video. If you actually read what I write, you would know that I always say, you should do something because you truly want to, not because the world is doing it. In this case, it was for a good cause so it is not like I can say it's a bad thing. Just don't try to make yourself seem like you truly have interest in issues like these all of a sudden, because stuff like this happens all over the world, all the time. An I never see any one seem like they care. Once again, in case you read over what I said and forget, I am not saying that this trend is a bad thing, it is a good thing. But please, keep this going. Don't let it just be a trend. Keep the awareness going. Post up support. Talk to your family and friends that might have not seen the video or heard about the cause. Now, if I get proven wrong and the world still supports this all the way through, then that would honestly make me so happy. It would be a huge win for the nobleness of humanity, and it would prove that we still have a little bit of goodness in our hearts. This video was suppose to bring everyone together not have people take sides. So we must all unite, which we did right now by posting the video, and stay united, stay motivated to keep supporting. I honestly do not agree with the people who get all offended when something is said. Something that we just want to admit. We all know not everyone did it because they actually care. They did it because the rest of the world did, and thats fine because at least they are spreading the world. But when you get offended by the words that someone said, then there is problem there. Instead of talking shit to the person(s), prove them wrong and show that you are not one of those "bandwaggoners". And no, do not start with me on that word because it is used correctly. Maybe not in the normal sense you think of but the actual definition of it. All that negative bullshit talk that you did, only made the issue a second point at that moment. You take the attention away from the real reason, and it is stupid. And getting that offended, and using that language directly at an individual also says alot about yourself. No, I do not believe I am above others, this is something bigger than all of us. But that doesn't give you the right to think that you are above, because you are proving another theory that I always said, people always want to be superior to others. So enough talk about this particular unimportant issue on an important issue. At the end, the ones who really support it, will keep supporting end of story.
A very important thing that happened with this story blowing up, is that the internet always get a bad rap for being a "waste of time", "place where all the bad things start", "the place for young people to to interact in a neagitve way". Now we can clearly see that it was utilized for a great cause. I really hope everyone takes a moment to research a little more, and spread the word. You can order 25 poster for only $5, and that is a great way to support. You do not have to spend money to support, but if you got a few extra dollars, why not? On april 20th I will be at Coachella. And I will try to post up these posters there, and spread the word. That day will be great, and I hope alot of people join in on helping and make this a huge event in today's society. Something that we can look back on and say " I was part of that movement" Let's do this, along with always remaining postive and supporting many different causes, everyday. Have a great week. Peace and One Love

at least when we...

-sleep our troubles don't matter.
- try our absolute hardest and give it our all, we don't have to live with the feeling that we could have done more.
-sing our lungs out, we are at our happiest.
-take a second to check your surroundings, you notice how small we really are and how beautiful this world really is.
-we say what is on our mind after careful thoughts about the consequences, we say stuff that really matters.
-meet someone new, we try our hardest to make a nice impression.
-are at our lowest, we figure out who are true friends are.
-have nothing, we have something and this will NEVER change.
-do something that we love, we don't worry about the rest of the stuff that might be affecting us.
- hit our low, it could still be worse so we got to move on and move forward.

5.3.12

you know...

it could be worse. We here right now doing what we do, to learn for future reference, even when we "don't do anything". Not doing anything is doing something. So we learn from it all and use it to better ourselves. Have a great week! Peace and One Love.

it's that type of day..

some days, we seem lost. We look for a little bit of guidance. Someone to tell us what to do and how to do it. We need motivation. It may not be much but this is something that I believe will help you. Watch the video. Listen to the words. Remember them. It is simply amazing. MAKE IT HAPPEN. WE WILL BECOME SUCCESSFUL.

March

The start of a new month, so I will stop lagging it with this blog. I just haven't felt like writing anything down but I believe it is time now. It has been an okay month (February), started school at the riverside campus, and boy is it a whole different experience. I really enjoy going there and my classes are not that bad. I go once a day, two times a week, so it is great. I am currently looking for a job so if you know of anywhere, let me know haha. The concert season is upon us, and I am excited. This weekend is Smokeout, and while the line-up does not compare to the last Smokeout event, it still have some pretty big names which is great. I am pretty excited about it so we shall see how that goes. I am happy where I am but feel like I am missing something. So meanwhile I figure out what it is, I will make the most out of it and I hope you do too. Don't forget that whatever you might be going through, it could be worse. So let's keep our head and keep pushing. Spend time with your loved ones and make sure they know about your love towards them. Let's make March another great month! Have a great start of your weekend. Peace and One Love.
