BLINK!!!!!!!!

Watching some videos of my beloved band, blink 182, i came across some stuff from their night with jimmy kimmel. on specifically caught my attention-the feeling this video. first off, why would people even think that you’re the one singing on stage? now i understand that the brother is recording it, but whoever was recording should have kept their mouth shut. all through out the song i was thinking that mark and tom were having trouble harmonizing, which they rarely do. even if you’re singing in tune, keep your mouth shut because you’re trying to record someone else’s performance. if you want to record yourself singing, go home, put the camera on a tripod and record yourself. i understand your not a professional, God help us all if you were cause you’d make a mockery of videography. i might not be a videographer myself, but there are some common sense rules:

rule 1: if you’re recording, don’t make noise, don’t even answer a question.

rule 2: don’t forget any copyrights.

rule 3: use warnings if material contains such necessities.

i’m sure there’s more, but those are just the common sense ones.

as an added note, never underestimate the level of stupidity that people bring to the table. it’s one thing not to be able to retain that much information and this isn’t for you, i’m taking about those that try to do things without thinking. it’s also another thing to be a jackass [immature] you can be the most immature person, but have wisdom and knowledge of a couple of things. immaturity has to do with actions, wisdom and knowledge both work with a mental status. so immature people can also be underestimated, let’s try not to do that so much, understanding these facts.

to conclude this post, i just want to say that i wish i could have been to one of blink’s shows . i know it must have been fun, but did they seem like they worked hard to sound like they did before angels and +44? any ways, we all waited for this to come pass and now it did so let’s just be content for once and stop complaining about the sound. that’s not why we go/went to see blink, we go/went to see blink because of the energy and the message of the songs, not because of the sound of the songs. take guns and roses for example, great rock band, one of the best sounds, but after a while people stopped going to shows because of axel’s hissy fits. so it doesn’t really matter about the sound, it’s better to have a high energy and have a sense of fun. when it comes to sound, that’s more for selling records, which doesn’t really happen now a days, but to really make money in the music world you have to tour and nobody will go to shows if you don’t have the charisma. i’m not saying that you have to suck or anything like that. you should know how to somewhat play, but when it comes to live shows, it’s better to get the fans into the songs as apposed to hear them say, “man they sound great”. so it’s great to have blink back!

until next time. laters!

School

American school system-go in stupid come out stupid as hell. congratulations America, no wonder society is hilariously dumb.

but why do i say this you ask? well, just think about it, before you go into school where you are polluted with politics and crap like that, one has the innocence of knowing what is right and wrong, in a way. i know many say that as a child, it is easy to lie and hard to do the “right” thing and this is mostly true. as people, we don’t have to learn how to lie, but through maturity, we lie less. that’s the difference, maturity is making mistakes in life, accepting the consequences, and learning from the experience.

in school you find people that think they know a lot and teach it with strong passion, but in reality, don’t really know all that much.

yes, reality is relative, but facts still exist. for example, there is fire, there is cold, ect… that being said, if a teacher only gives busy work, falls asleep during class (yes that’s right, even the teacher falls asleep during the class) and almost the whole entire class (cept for maybe 2 or 3 out of 10) fail, then you’re probably not a good teacher.

another thing is that you can graduate knowing the steps to manage a 5 trillion dollar franchise, but don’t know how to even turn on the computer. not to sound like a jerk because i know a thing or two about computer, but the fact is that we really are working more with computers and media, so one should at least know how to use the Microsoft Office suite. all in all, school is to open up the minds of students to inspire them to learn things on their own or at least knowing the steps on how to better themselves if they hate the situation their in.

anyways, that’s enough of my rant on how sometimes school makes you dumber instead of smarter.

“it’s so nice to have you back where you belong” i can’t help adding this into my post because i just found it a big coincidence considering the certain present situation. all in all nothing lasts forever, absolutely nothing and you can add that to the facts list.

until next time. laters!

Stupid Stupid Stupid

here at work researching some stuff, i realize something and start asking myself certain questions:

1-can people actually be that stupid?
2-how is it that a lot of society’s dumbest people are more prominent?
3-how is it that many knowledgeable people with a desire to learn more don’t even get a chance to do so?

i’m not referring to people that don’t have the capacity, that’s something completely different because if you’re on able then it’s not your fault, but if you’re suppose to know something, considering you are looked at as some type of “expert” in that field, well, you have to show it. also in common sense, like for example, “i didn’t know killing was bad…” you didn’t know causing harm to someone is bad?

i don’t mean to be a jerk or a prick, i just can’t stand people that constantly don’t think before saying/doing something. for a less drastic example, why would you sprits(cologne) more than once cause a whole room to stink and also causing many people to get intoxicated, causing many headaches, which last time i checked wasn’t very healthy, nor fun? what, to impress another person that probably doesn’t even know you exist? now, i won’t tell a person how to live their lives, but if that’s what it takes, then it’s probably not worth it. and trust me, my big thing is smells for me, i hate horrible smelling rooms and stuff, but that doesn’t make it smell better, it actually makes the room smell worse. it’s not even a question of moderation, it’s a question of common sense. it’s called DEODORANT  to each his own, but let’s think before so…

it’s also another thing to be too young or having that innocence, but at the age of sixteen, you can’t really say, “i didn’t know sex can lead to a baby”. if you can honestly say this with proof, then i would probably want to talk to your neighborhood. even if your parents sheltered you or tried to “save” you from the world’s corruption, your teachers and friends should have said something. so the rest is up to you.
the solution to the last question is simple-government sucks, always has and always will. you can be proud to be an american as much as you want, but let’s please cut the crap, politics/government is all worthless and a waste of time due to it not solving anything and usually being corrupt/messed up.

being a jackass is also a little bit different. that just means that you’re immature, not necessarily inept. trust me, i’m immature myself, but let’s have some common sense…

the point i’m trying to get across is-let’s try to start to think before saying/doing. it won’t hurt anyone and hey, maybe we can even prevent a life or two from being prematurely taken away.

on a side note, lot’s of things are going pretty well cept for me being tired a lot. could be due to high blood pressure or sleep apnea, but we shall see how long all the rest will last.

remember: THINK, tip your waitress, careful with drugs, and respect everyone. not for their position, but because they are fellow humans. laters!

Faulty Bank Systems?

now not to come to any conclusions or to point fingers, but aren’t the bank systems even a bit desperate to make money now a days? now i have to admit that when i make a mistake, it’s my fault and my fault only. i also realize that technology is far from perfect, that coming from me should mean something because i love technology. i say this because i made a mistake so i transfered some money, a couple of hours later, that when they charge me for my mistake. from firday-tuesday they didn’t do anything, regardless if it was fourth of july. july fourth was on saturday and it’s not even open during the weekend anyways. i don’t know if it would have made a difference if it would have been on monday when everything was posted, specially the transfer, but i’m just saying that the economy is so bad that it seems as if the banks are even desperate. what does that say about us as a nation and the world?

personally, i think money should come to an end and we should try to focus on helping each other by growing crop and trading it. plus isn’t the big thing now a days being nice to each other? we the people? what exactly does that mean? that to me means that we should give everyone a chance regardless of all the closed mindedness and truly helping each other. hey!!! maybe, just maybe, this can be a though-let’s put away all the crap that prevents us from this, like greed and we can do this by putting out the economic system. i mean it’s only gonna get worse and worse.

besides the economic bull, everything else i think is going alright, but i do have to admit, i think there’s too much media going around this michael jackson thing. don’t get me wrong, we was inspirational and creative, but my goodness it’s on every channel every hour of all the day. plus, if you notice when his daughter was giving the speech, she was forcing the emotions, which to me tells me that it’s just a show. life is precious, but personally too much media and too much faked drama is a sham and really disrespectful. if you can’t shed a tear, fine, don’t put on a show. if you can’t cry, respect the life of the dead, but not talking to your neighbor or making noise. tears are just emotion, not necessarily a way to honor the dead.

Fourth of July

it’s that time again. you know, when everyone is proud to be an American, even though might still be illegal aliens, but at this point who cares right? what’s my feelings on today? let’s just put it this way: yay!!!! let’s celebrate what so many people ‘s lives were lost to prevent what’s going on today. i don’t mean that in a political way(mostly because it’s just a waste of time and it lacks intellect), but i’m just saying how redundantly ironic it is for how so many lost their lives to prevent us as americans from losing our freedoms and rights also from being communist, but sooner or later we most likely will become this anyways. many people argue for how the government is so much better now than before, but i don’t agree with this.

call me a traitor or anything along those line, but i’m just being realistic right now. july fourth is suppose to be about how america became a free country from great britain and how america is a great country, but like i said before how is it great as it is right now. and i’m not even saying financially, that has nothing to do with the greatness of a country, but i believe, as many others do, that our government as an organization is very corrupt. don’t take this the wrong way, i’m not saying the homosexuals and stuff like that. when i say it’s corrupt i mean it’s kind of like dirty business corrupt.

everyone was so excited about this “big change”, but in reality we didn’t know what kind of a change it was. would it be good? would it be bad? well i hope everyone is happy now…

now, at this point i’m sure many think i’m a jackass that i don’t know anything, but the truth is, i don’t really care. i’m not a politician nor do i have even the slightest interest in that mess.

in the end i’m just glad that we are allowed to do fireworks without having to deal with anything unreasonable. in my opinion all i would want is $5,000 dollars worth of fireworks and that’s about it.

well, enough of me ranting about how much i dislike our government. i hope the rest of you enjoy this holiday. laters!

YAY!!!!

sitting in my living room watching an old episode of Scrubs and playing around with my new macbook pro (yes, i work on the computer while watching tv) i think of how things are going. things are really looking up. love my job. everything.

so apparently michael jackson is dead after becoming the kind of pop.  what do i think?  well, of course he’s not perfect, no body is, so he had some mistakes.  he did some weird stuff, but so have i so, yeah. but he is an inspiration in many genres of music.  sure he isn’t any bruce lee, but he’s pretty close.  i don’t know that much about him, to tell you the truth, only what the media says and we all know that most of media isn’t really the truth.  so in conclusion, michael jackson was an insentric inspirational musician and he will be missed by many.

My Public Announcement

looking through my email, i noticed that there were a couple of comments waiting to be approved for the blog. now, i have no problems  if the reader leaves comments or criticizes my posts. even if the critique is negative, quite frankly i don’t care, but for the love of all that is holy, please, please make it sound educated. i mean how does that look if one is criticizing my post and the spelling is completely off and the grammar is just horrible. good grief, i thought i was going to rip out all of my hair. now, granted my writing isn’t proper either, but at least the spelling is usually 90% correct and the grammar is 80%. i’m just too lazy to capitalize. also, one of my comments said that they would subscribe to my blog, when i checked the name, i said great. of course you’re going to subscribe to my blog if you like spamming. do me a favor, don’t subscribe if you’re going to just slam me with spam. i get enough in my email. also, don’t post if you can’t write in proper english. if you really want to post, stop, go back to 4th grade, learn to write, then we shall see. not to sound like a complete jerk off, but seriously, the internet is already full of stupid crap, i don’t want my blog to be full of that too. i mean sure some of my posts sound stupid, but at least make it sound somewhat educated.

also, don’t post a comment asking if my posts are copyrighted.  are you seriously asking that question?  i justs saw one of those comments in my email.  yes, of course it’s copyrighted you moran.  this whole site is apart of my art.  anything i put on here is me, so it would be wrong for anyone to take it.  any thoughts and especially the songs that i write are all mine.  come one guys, use your brains.  of course it’s copyrighted.  and if i hurt anyone’s feelings in this post, good! i wanted to because you guys should start using your God given brain.  don’t just add comments to add points or some crap like that.  i can live without spam on my site.  please, for the love of all that is holy, before pressing that submit button, please, i beg of you, reread your post and ask yourself these questions: was it completely necessary?  is it proper grammar?  is it proper spelling?  is it a question that has an obvious answer?  seriously, don’t just post stupid stuff.  like i said i don’t care if it’s negative or postive, just make it sound somewhat educated.

one more thing, if i can’t understand it, i will consider it spam, thus deleting the comment.  so please use proper english grammar or at least come close to proper english grammar.  i realize that the comments i am receiving are spam, if you are from google, i will automatically delete your comment.  don’t comment about subscribing to my blog just so that you can leave your spam on my site.  i’d rather have you not subscribe.  in general, please think before clicking submit.  we already have enough stupid crap on the internet, let’s try to cut that down a bit.

anyways, instead of wasting another post i’m just gonna add a couple more stuff. my surgery went quite well, my head didn’t hurt that badly, and now i just have to rest and finish healing.

in general, things are starting to look up, but life still doesn’t come without it’s troubles. i don’t know, but we shall see.

just two more weeks before i get my dream computer: 13″ Macbook Pro with 4gigs of RAM and 160gigs of storage. i can’t wait, it’s so sexy.

anyways, the main point is, let’s try to pull down the level of stupid. it only takes one thing, taking a moment to think. that’s all!

well, until next time. Laters!

21

the weekend is over and now everyone is back to a normal schedule. during the weekend i turned 21 and many people asked me, “so how do you feel being 21? ” or “are you excited now that you can drink legally?” the truth of the matter is that it’s not that exciting. yeah i’m one year older and i don’t feel much different. also, i’m 21, great! that doesn’t mean anything. it’s thought of as much more exciting than it really is. i’m probably gonna end up drinking less if at all now that i’m legal as apposed to in the past, which i will not talk about, because it’s really not that exciting.

the one thing that i am looking forward to is buying a new Mac in three weeks. i love the specs, but i just wish it would be black. but the reality of it is, if the specs are amazing, is the color really that important? anyways, it’s a monday and kind of slow. it’s backed with people trying to get everything together for midterms. yes in the summer, but i love working in IT at my school, it’s fun and the complete opposite of working at stop and shop (less drama, less bull, and less stress).

anyways, until next time. laters!

Summer is Here!!!!!

sitting in my dark room with raindrops sliding down the garage, i realize that my dad’s birthday just past and my birthday is only a couple of weeks away, which can mean one main thing: i’m on summer vacation. the semester went by relatively quickly with all the professors pilling up everything all at the same time. i did what i could on all the finals and now i’m just waiting. did i bump up my GPA? so far i have, but i only got one grade back. i started out not know what i would do with the job, but for now i am able to work at the school again. woot! the question is how long will it last? that’s why i would also want to set up a job at radio shack. all i need to do is set up an interview with the store manager, who is on vacation. they told me to set it up with the district manager,who i think is also on vacation, which is fine, it is what it is, but i just don’t want to loose my chance at the position all because i couldn’t get the interview set up in time.

i feel so frustrated, brokenhearted, and sad because my mac died on me and now i’m writing this post on my piece of crap PC. don’t get me wrong, one is not really better than the other, i just prefer my mac. anyways, as long as i can work at the school (and maybe even at radio shack) for a month, i can buy a black macbook, which i really would like.

no big plans for the summer, all in all i would just like to put everything together during this summer. you know, paying off my dad the massive debt i owe him, finding a more stable and half decent job that i don’t have to worry about losing due to my GPA, buying a new mac, and starting to really focus on getting better grades. quality of work rather than quantity of work.

of course it’s only the beginning of the summer, not to mention the first real weekend of the summer, but we shall see. nothing is ever really written in stone.

until next time, Laters!

Camp Firey Nights

Sitting in front of the campfire and watching the fire die down, I start realizing how relaxing it is. Sure I’m finishing up my psychology homework, but the campfire makes it less stressful. come to think of it i’ve been making a campfire pretty much every night so far, since the weather is getting warmer and i’ve been feeling a little bit better. let’s talk a little bit about school. two weeks left, everything getting jammed into these last two weeks: 10 more programs to write (not that bad actually, just taking what the professor gave us and putting it together), two more weeks worth of discussions in both sociology and psychology, and an oral presentation in another class. the bright side is that history is pretty much done, but i also pretty much failed calculus. any ways let’s get back to the relaxing part of this evening. everyone is going inside to eat diner while i stay out enjoying the campfire. it’s about to go out so maybe i should put some more wood in. hold on. okay, so now i’m ready to stay out here for a couple more hours. i actually love staying outside during warm summer nights while watching a campfire. it’s very relaxing. i just realized that the best therapy is the most simplest thing, just taking a few moments and enjoying nature. one bad thing is that the neighbor kids are really loud and annoying, but at this point i feel like i’m on cloud 9 so i don’t care. i have a feeling know that there are going to be much, much much more campfires like these. anyways, i’d better finish my last assignment for psychology then enjoy the rest of the fire. laters!
