Day 2: Last day as a carnivore

So lately I've been thinking to myself, "Geez, I'm fat." The weight training class I signed up for just reinforced this and peppered in some "Man *huff* I'm really *huff* out of  *huff* shape.". So I've decided to go vegetarian and see how far I can go with it. As you probably already guessed by the title of this post, today is my last day of not only eating meat but, no more soda or fast food. I'm dropping everything cold turkey (no pun intended). I guess I could say that my friends have somewhat inspired me to do so heh Carlos and Rebecca. So as of tomorrow I start down a path lined with many different fruits, vegetables, and protein substitutes, and say goodbye to Chipotle. I look forward to keeping this up for as long as I can. I also plan to ,in the spirit of going healthy, workout more and go for leisurely runs :). If anyone who's gone vegetarian would like to give me some good pointers as to how it was when you first started and how to do it right that would be great. I just hope that this whole no meat, no soda thing doesn't make me a grouch. (more than I already am :P)

Day 1: New Beginnings

So it's been a while since I've posted on here...I got caught up doing other things and dealing with school. I figured it would be nice to revisit my blog and perhaps breathe new life into it, as I will soon be doing with my life, at the dawn of my College career and the period after. Otherwise known as "the rest of your life". To say the very least, a lot of time has elapsed between my previous post and this one. Towards the end of my posting days my posts, I noticed, began to diminish in quality and readability. So in my attempt to "spice" them up a bit I will return to posting about my days, although this blog will start looking like a rough draft for a memoir as opposed to a blog worth reading. Well so fire life has been treating me fairly well, I'm working on being more open minded and being less arrogant. Although, if you ask my friends they'd say I've made little to no progress. Today ws the very first day of the second semester. While seeing all my friends again was fantastic, having to deal with all six classes wasn't fantastic. However it is great to know that I have classes with more friends than I had before. Silver lining. It is safe to say that today was the beginning of the end. I look forward to keeping this blog updated as much as possible and try to keep my readers(if anyone actually reads these.) entertained.

Hiatus

Day 22

Day 22: Slurpees, cars, and basketball

Today had to be one of the best days ever. So today started like any other day show up at school go to acadeca and stuff. The fun started in Nelson's, as usual. We started watching Cinderella Man which I think is a pretty good movie. After that I had religion where all we did was chill talk about life and cat daddy. After lunch I had chemistry and Dixon left us some boring ass movie to watch about ice. Luckily Carlo came to the rescue and we watched Transformers 2 on his phone. :)
After school I hung around and went to Menchie's to get some yogurt. After that I got to school and hung around with Brandon and soon after that we hopped in his car to go pick up Jon and Paul. After that we did some crazy driving and singing along to the radio. Finally we went to the basketball game which was really fun but we unfortunately lost. So altogether it was a bad ass day! Gotta do it again!

Day 20.

WATCH!

Day 19: sigh

Today was a rather bad day. To start it off I had to work my ass off in the morning doing laundry, dishes, cleaning my room, and cleaning the bathrooms in order to go with my best friend and his date to the movies. I was extremely tired in the morning so I was pretty grumpy while doing the chores.So time comes up to go and meet everone at the promenade so I leave. Turns out Kevin had planned for the wrong movie time which I personally was pretty funny. So we basically walked around and finally had some lunch. We waited for everyone else to show up. After that we went in to see the Green Hornet which I believe was the highlight of my day. Soon after that I suggested we go to the pier and chill since we had about half an hour to kill. So we went to the arcade and Kevin and his date and Rebecca and Livio went and took some pictures in the photobooths while I played Guitar Hero. After that we just wandered on the pier till it was time for Jocelyn to leave than we went and waited with her til she got picked up. Then It was just me and Kevin and the love birds. I had to walk back to school to get picked up so I left and got home and my mom makes me move all the (pardon my french) fucking fire wood from one side of the yard to the other. So that is my day in a nutshell...Why I had such a bad day is pretty simple. While I was hanging out with all of them I felt lonely...Now this may sound selfish but It wasn't because they were all into each other...no. I actually felt bad because all my closest friends have significant others so basically now I wont have anyone to hang with just me and Brian. Also what got me down was the fact that my presence to day wasn't really neccessary at all. They would of have been just fine with out me and I would have spared my self the awkward notion of being the fifth wheel. But with all that said the thing that bugged me the most was that I had worked my ass off for basically nothing cause I didn't really need to go. You're probaly thinking to yourself "Why has Alex been such a whiny bitch lately" well I'm sorry I just needed somewhere to vent my feelings and what better place than the Internet.
P.s. I'm not made at my friends, I love them all to death and I hope they know this was nothing against them.

Day 18: Shoryuken

Today's post you will find appealing seeing as I did pretty much nothing. So this post will be really short.
Ummm all I really did was watch Ping Pong Playa and Princess and the frog and the rest of the day I played Xbox and realized I suck at street fighter ahaha. That's about it.

Day 17: Melancholy

Today I'm not posting about my day. How great it was and how quotable it was.

As the days slowly roll by 

One can only wish they would 

move faster.

As the say, "One door closed is 

another door opened"

But what if you're stuck in that

sombre hallway opening and closing

all the wrong doors.

I find that the best solution to this problem is simple: Burn the current hallway and build a new one and pray better opportunities arise. 

On a different note I have realized that the quality of my posts tend to diminish the more I feel tired with myself. I've dug myself in this mental ditch and I'll come up when I'm damn ready.

Smiles: they've all been fake.

I can't stand to be seen for what I really am.

Some emotional guy that seems to be ruining his life everyday.

But of course no one knew until now.

Yes, I am aware this is most likely a phase, but as long as everyone is interested I am still that funny loud idiot boy that roams the campus.

So don't worry about me I'll be fine...My purpose, I have recently realized, is to see everyone happy :D

Day 16: Half Empty Half Full

I look at the flask of my life blood
Half empty or half full; which is it?
Just like anyone, I don't need the crud
I want the good times to pay a visit

Slammed with uncertainty again & again,
My optimism is tough to hold on to
And the question is always when?
When will the stars align? I've no clue

Half empty or half full; which way
Must I regard the Present of my life
As the fabric is gnawed every day
I need a future of Hope, not Strife

The struggling has been too long
And yes, some pain makes one stronger
But again and again, this is so wrong
It's hard to be positive any longer

I need to keep a positive angle
For sanity and for others than myself
Yet I'm mired in this earthly tangle
Of paying bills and stocking shelves

And making the too-little money last
Not fixing things that aren't emergent
We had hoped the bad times were passed
But alas, not yet, until the resurgence

We need a vacation from this morass
But can't afford to go; not yet; soon?
Unless we slide into another crevasse
Oh, to eye the ocean from the dunes

Half empty or half full? I like to think
That the good times must be ahead
Maybe we need to be at the very brink
Before fortune goes our way instead

Day 15.

Today's post is a poem I wrote in English class for my bestfriend who was going through a tough time.

Palm Trees

We are all like palm trees

We sway and bend

but we never break.

Certain palms must

be removed at times to 

prevent them from bringing

us down.

So let us do like them 

and stand tall and proud

and live through this

storm called life.

Day 14

Today was an alright day. It went by really quickly. In the morning before school I decided to skip acadeca because I was super tired from the amazing weekend I had. Today's first class English and we talked about MLK and it go me thinking. Other than that I spent the rest of the class trying to mess up my friends drawings. Second class of the day was with Nelson...nees I explain? Third class a pretty good class. We talked about love and actually got me feeling a bit depressed as I began to think about my past loves...and nothing beats the feeling of realizing you're meant to be alone. For lunch we had tacos which is always good... We rounded up the day with chemistry which was really boring...
After school all I really did was go to Costco to get some pizzas. All I can say is that I am ready for the weekend.

Day 13: Teach me how to Gumby.

Today I think was o e of the best days I've had in a long time. Let's start with the wee hours of the morning. That can easily be summed up in a few words. Me Cyrus and Cassidy played just dance. Cyrus stuffed his face with pizza. During all this ruckus Brian managed to sleep through all of it. Brian got six hours of sleep while the rest of us got less than two. After that we woke up and left to universal to meet up with Marty Gibb and grant. We had to wait about an hour till we could go into thee park but we got Starbucks while we waited. Then we went on the studio tour and some other rides. Lunch was pretty good. But it wasafter lunch the fun started. We went on the mummy like ten times singing songs and going nuts. We also posed for really funny pictures. In all its entirety today was probably one of the best days I've had. Can't wait to do it again. Hopefully with more people. I'll post the top picture of today when I get home. <3km

.iDay 12: Skinny Pants, Bill Cosby Swag, and Just Dance 2

So today was a pretty good beside the fact that I had to say goodbye to my grandma. I ended up going downtown twice. It was a really long day. After that I went cassidy's house we went to aahs and went to go pick up these huge as pizzas. They were like 23 inches. After that we walked to UCLA and played some marvel baby! We had an interesting walk back to cassidys house. Once we got home we played some Just Dance and kicked some ass. I also spent the whole day talking to my friend Lucia. <3
Tomorrow is gonna be a better day. BACC brain trust :D

Day 11: Ipads, Assassin's Creed, and AK74-us

Today was a pretty good day actually. Yes I did have to wake up early to go to Acadeca but it was really fun. After that I kinda just got home and played Xbox all day. Oh and I had/am having a wonderful conversation with Lucia. That's about it for today. Tomorrow will be much more exciting. :D

Things I come up with when I have time to think to myself.

Well as I'm sitting here waiting for people to show up for the cram session we are having for acadeca I realized a couple things:
-Blink-182 is a really great band.
-Girls come and go but friends remain.
-Bros before hoes only applies when the girl is a hoe.
-Being at school at 8:30 on Saturday really sucks.
-I really need a tablet.
And lastly....
-Hipsters dress really comfortably.

Day 10: Basketball, Problems, and Mexican Music

Today was a pretty fantastic day. I'm skipping the boring usual otherwise known as school. I don't really know where to start. First me and friends walked up and down the promenade. I ended up getting a sick sweater. After that we headed back to school. We went to seven eleven and got some food and said hi to my homie. Had a great time talking with Emily and accidentally started the biggest fight. However the highlight of the day was riding with my friends blasting music. Love all my friends!
