Court......

March 19 2007
Sucks and I really don't want to have to go but I guess I am going to since if I don't show up I will both lose my licence and be arrested on a $5000 bond......now I am sure alot of you are wondering what I did to incure such a large offence well just to let you know you really have to be careful when you drive next to people now a days cause the cops might think you are drag racing.......totally not kidding I was told I was drag racing down Broad St. going over 100 mph......now here is the major problem with that my car will only go over 100mph if I am slamming the gas and have it in 5th gear......which neither was going on so I don't understand where they got 100.......but I will hopefully get off with a minor speeding ticket or get off with nothing on me at all......but if something happens and they try to stick the citation well then I already have a lawyer to take the case who said I have a good chance of winning as it is.......well wish me luck and I'll see you cats later....peace

Crazyness

October 12 2006
So I was cooking today because I don't have the money to eat out and well I am cooking some rice when something explodes......I check the cooking rice and it didn't explode but it came from the eye that it was on......so I move the rice to another eye to cook and I see that a battery had fallen under the heated coils....I flipped out, cause in the explosion something hit my face and arms......I was freaking out thinking that battery acid had gotten on my face and I run to the bathroom and wash my arms and face and took off my shirt and changed cause I couldn't just leave cooking food on the stove.....as I look back on it....it was just bad luck....what had happened is my roommate had left some batteries by the stove and one had just happened to fall underneath the eye I was going to use......but yea.....crazyness.....peace

Need Opinions despritely

October 07 2006

So I have recently found out that I am yet another minority.....my mom knows now that she is 50% Puerto Rican, making me 25%....I have a way to get all the necessary documents to be classified as Puerto Rican but my mom doesn't want to do it because she doesn't want to meet her real parents.....should I get those papers though I would get a full scholarship to any college in the nation that I wanted.....my loans would be paid back, and I would get enough extra to pay for anything else......my problem is the fact that my mom doesn't want to meet her parents.....but the way I see it I would like to know my heratige as well as know if there are any prominant health problems on my mom's side of the family so I can kinda know what to expect in the future......idk I guess its just a matter of knowing but not really knowing.....I have always taken pride in my ethenicity, and I would love to know the full extent of my heratige......idk I guess it feels like I might actually be able to find another grandfather or something too.....I mean alot of people grew up knowing there grandparents but since I found out my mom was addopted I couldn't look at my mom's adopted parents as my real grandparents.....don't take my wrong I loved them none the less....in fact I wish every day that my mom's mom, or nanny as we called her, could still be alive today and see me in college, my nephew, and all that stuff that has happened in the past 5 and a half years......but anyways what do you think I should do.....should I keep pressing the issue with my mom?...or should I just drop it and let things be as they are?  I would really like some opinions on this if you would please......



o yea I also found out I am 1/8th black

Quick question......skip towards the end if you just want to see the question if not read it all

September 11 2006

Well its been a couple of days so I guess I am going to update......So anyways my former boss finally sold his restaurant and I am still working there......But the new guy doesn't know alot that goes on so I am training him at the same time as having to listen to what he tells me to do......its really weird.....I was given the job of hiring new people as well as some what managing the store....basically I have complete control over who is hired and who is fired except that I can't fire one guy cause he is a good friend of the now current owner......but in that postition I got my sister in law a job working answering phones and random cleaning and she liked the job to begin with....well come to find out he is giving her more to do then what was in the original job description and what he is having her do isn't anything she has experience...e.g. handling customer complaints......so she is feeling really stressed and is about to quit.....which just looks so great considering she has only been there a week.......but I understand where she is coming from.....so my plan is to attempt to gain control over the store in a sense......I am going to ask my boss if he will allow me to start doing all the cooking with a couple of days off each week and beyond that basically handling the store beyond inventory and such.....and he can take care of that and not have to be there......then I can get my sister in law to keep her job and I will be getting paid better cause I will not take a pay cut to do more.....I average about 10 bucks an hour right now......and I would be taking care of customer complaints and such because I have had to deal with that while I worked with my last boss.......I think it is a good idea but I would like a little imput.....So what do you think should I go through with my plan or just let things fall as they fall??

BUZZ FEST THE CONCERT

August 27 2006

Alright so Buzz fest was in short freaking amazing......I had the greatest time......See from start to finish I saw Black Stone Cherry,Soil,  Evensblue, Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, Cowboymouth, and Stained......of those the best had to have been Cowboymouth for their amazing stage presence, the lead singer actually jumped off the stage in to the pit area and then jumped another rail into the seats and started making people get up.....and Stained because they were just a freaking amazing band.....Stained ended the night and by the end of their set I had headbanged soo much that I will not be able to move tomorrow morning......also when Soil was playing there was a mosh pit in the grass area that I got into.....a friend of mine got hit and busted his lip....but me I went in and had loads of fun.....at one point I actually hit a guy and fliped him over....come to find out later that the guy was actually like 13 and really didn't belong in there cause he got hurt pretty badly because of all the much larger people.....also after that I realized that I was getting dehidrated so I went got me a water and started back to my brother and sister in law and got hit with a dizzy spell fell to the ground and started throwing up everything I had drank......it sucked but it was alot of fun all in all......peace out bye bye

Buzz Fest!!!

August 26 2006
Alright so I am heading to Buzz Fest in about 6 hours and 7 hours bands start playing......I am really excited because I haven't been to a concert in awhile and from what I have heard this is going to be a really good one......I am going to post tomorrow about how it went......peace out bye bye

Insomnia..........Sucks!!!!!!

August 20 2006
So these past couple of weeks have been absolutly horrible for me in the order of sleep.....of the last 2 weeks I haven't been to sleep before 4 and that was yesterday when that happened .........before that I had gotten to see the sunrise more times in a row then ever in my life.....in other words I didn't get to sleep till around 6 or 7........but yea I would have to say insomnia sucks.......I am actually tired enough now that I might actually go to sleep here soon......anyways peace out bye bye

Wow??

August 04 2006
So yea I have come to the conclusion that no one cares what is written here as long as it pertains to them.......so this pertains to everyone who reads it........I can't believe that a tribute to my late Great Grandmother goes unnoticed but I post about my hair gets 5 remarks......what the freaking crap........is all that you care about vain and worthless.......who gives a crap if I cut my hair or not.....its my hair why should you care.....are you people so concerned with looks that that is the only thing you care reading about.......I know I don't remark on alot of blogs that are put out that and that is because I don't have time.....I don't expect everyone in my friends list to post a remark everytime I feel like updating this little site.........but when I go through the 50 some new friend entrys and find that some people have posted blogs once every day or so then that slightly concerns me espically since nothing that appears to be said here really has much importance what so ever.......anyways no I didn't cut my hair......but then again why in the world should you care........I could make 50 heart filled post that I would like someone's opinion on and noone care......and then make a post about my hair or cutting my foot and get pleanty........wow I think I am done for now but I really think you people should consider this

RIP Elizabeth Slate (My Great Grandmother)

July 28 2006
Well for any of you that didn't know my Great Grandmother Slate died monday of this week.......we went to Memphis today for the funeral.......I spent probably 10 hours in a car with my dad (whom I dislike) and my grandmother (whom is the worst back seat driver ever).........They had me drive the last 150 miles from Jackson home.......it was horrible just because I had to drive my grandmother's car which really isn't all that great and I had her telling me how to drive every 3 seconds.......but besides that I had a great time.....I got to see family that I haven't seen in about 10 years and some I hadn't seen in about 15 or 16 years........I got to see my Aunt Sanua and her family which I hadn't seen in about 8 or 9 years........I also got to see my Uncle David and his family......he's a great guy along with his wife and 6 kids.......and I got to see my Uncle Kenneth and his family.........which he has been in Washington DC for awhile and was working on cleaning up the aftermath of Katrina for 8 months making him gone for the past year almost........which I had dinner with all of them along with my grandmother and dad.......I had a great time today.......I was thinking about how I want my funeral and such to go and I decided I am just going to have a wake so that the great times I had after the funeral could be spread over a couple of days instead of a few hours........man I have got to say I have really missed that side of my family.....also I got to visit the graves of my great great great grandmother and grandfather....and my dad's dad or my grandfather......sad thing is I never met my grandfather on my dad's side because he died before my dad was 10......but all in all I had a great time.......I didn't expect something this good to come from someone in my family dying........

Extreme!!!!!!!!

July 25 2006

I cut off all my hair........it is as long as it was back when I was a freshman in high school..........

Me and my Job and the New developments

July 19 2006
So yea I have been working at New York Cafe now for 4 days.....as of when I go in tonight......well since I have begun working there I have worked most of the time by myself........I worked Monday from 11 till 8 of which i was by myself till 5......I worked yesterday from 5 till 11 which I was by myself the entire time......also all this driving is causing my shoulder and neck to cramp up making it really hard to sleep at night.......also I can't seem to figure this out but I thought there were about 5 or so people working there and I have only worked with one........where are other people that can work..........so yea I must say I love this job but it is about to kill me so I need to find some way of getting more deleveries or something so I can make more money each night.......anyways I am out I just thought I would put that out there.......peace

Me and My new Job

July 17 2006
So as of yesterday I started my new Job at New York Cafe......It is amazing at the time I am delevering although I don't know how long it will last since I am going to be losing my car here soon.......if I can make enough money to keep my rental then I think I will just extend it a bit longer then what I already did.....but yesterday in 5 hours I made like 50 some odd bucks......including tips......I am really enjoying it.......anyways I just thought I would give a little up date.......peace out bye bye

interesting night

July 10 2006

so tonight was in a single word interesting.....lets see I went to turning point and saw Cherry and after their practice it seemed like something was bothering her....so I asked her what was going on which caused a fight and then when I went to leave I wrecked my car.......I was pulling out turned too far over corrected and hit a curb.......which sent me into another curb and blew my front driver's side tire bent the rim, put a crack in my windshield, and then when coming out of the grass tore up my oil pan which caused me to lose all the oil in my car......was getting my car towed by a friend of mine and he was going to lose his bumper if he kept it up so he left me on the side of the road and I waited till a tow truck showed up during which I called Cherry and she came back and took me back to my appartment where I am still sitting.....tomorrow my insurance company will call me to set me up with a rental car but I am pretty sure I am going to have to buy a new car which means I am not going to be able to afford going to Orlando......which really stinks......I am looking for a new job at the moment but all in all it should work out.......also thanks to the air bags I have burns on my arm which I have to go check out and get taken care of......wow this really sucks......but I have made a promise to Cherry tonight and it will be kept I hope she knows that........well I am out peace out much love.....I love you Cherry.....bye bye


ps....here is my arm for a little visual to what the air bag did to me

All in all

July 05 2006
Alright so this past week my all in all.......the 4th was fun I went out to Tabby's father's house and blew things up got burned on my arm and well it looks alright considering it took out flesh when I got burned......what caused it was we were shooting off mortors and someone had the bright idea to put a mortor into a tube that it couldn't fit into......well it blew up mid-tube and sparks went everywhere.......I got caught on the wrist and was burned pretty badly......my foot is doing great finally.......I is healed up I am just waiting for the calouses to return so it won't hurt as much when I stand for long periods of time.....also I am completely moved into my new appartment.......my roommate is cool he has alot of stuff that is really amazing......he has a 15 inch HDTV and Polk suround sound speakers, an Xbox 360 placed in the living room and a recording studio in his room.....I am really glad to be out on my own finally.......well I am out peace out bye bye
