Studying Break

2009-10-06T22:15:00.000-07:00

OK I'm trying to study right now. and as always focus on my goals. The goals I have with the most clear steps are 1. Obtaining my Pharm. D and 2. Getting that built body.

People Do not believe in me. I'm confident in myself and I know I'm going to take the right steps.

We tend to live our lives in accordance with others. We are always following what others expect of us through our parents and our peers. We must live with courage and action. In the short term it is comfortable to follow others but in the end you always realize you would have been better off following your gut.

Trust in yourself! There isn't anyone else. You are the only one, and you must earn it.

I am passionate and have boundless enthusiasm and energy for myself. I must be able to delineate my actions and time. With respecting my TIME as my most valuable resource I will obtain the pleasure of moving toward my values and goals, while avoiding the pain and embarrassment of being a dreamer with that does not take action.

I AM BUILDING AND DESIGNING MY OWN LIFE. NO ONE ELSE WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY HAPPINESS.

Ironically you get validation from others when you feel you need it least. When you do what others are not willing to do to accomplish what they do not.

BE THE HERO.

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT WHAT OTHERS THINK ABOUT ME.

NOTHING COMPARES TO THE FIRE WITHIN US.
ITS GOT TO BE BURNING

It may be hard to act on principles and values on which you know to be right. But how much harder it is to act not knowing what they are?

We are always playing out our own value system, beliefs and and convictions with every action of every day. We choose not ask the more difficult uncomfortable questions for fear of the answers. The reality, is that we are answering with how we choose to live our lives each moment of every day.

New Computer after a month and a half of going completely without one. I finished my experiment. Instead of being online I spent all my time doing one of 2 things, one: Working at Rite Aid, two: Wild Discovery Channel Type fornication with my girlfriend.

Memorial Day Weekend

2009-05-27T08:38:00.000-07:00

There has been an official kick off to summer with the passing of Memorial Day weekend. Friday was the first time I had been out to a club in a while. I went with my KY bro Mark and had the chance to meet his current chick and some of her friends. I was only out for about an hour but it was still fun and different. A reminder of the days when I went out almost every night I could. Also suprise surprise I signed up to be a "rsd volunteer" just a few days prior and holy shit Nick "Papa" Kho from The Game and CEO of RSD calls me up to crash at my place friday night because they're having a workshop the next day in Philly. Had the chance to meet him and he was cool so I never saw that coming.

Saturday I went out to play some tennis with Mark. He didn’t tell me but when I got there it was his girl and her friends. So we ended up playing some “beach” volleyball. Then later that night we went out to her place to pre-game. I ended up drinking way to much and somehow later in the night at mint just blacked out. Tony and all those guys ended up being there too so that was cool. But I don’t remember but we went to Z-bar afterwards and I threw up there and they just took my back to my place. Good night! Bad part was my phone was going off and I didn’t hear it but apparently the GF called I picked up and said “There’s sooo many girls here. Sorry! Bye!” That blew up in my face and she thinks I cheated on her. Nope I didn’t. But these kinds of stories and nights are what keep things fun right?

Well currently I'm a 21 year old graduate student in pharmacy school at Temple University in Philadelphia. Being a student and graduating from school is my current priority. To me it has been one of the best experiences in my life thus far. I have has a chance to be around so many wonderful, fun and motivated people and I'm glad to be associated with them. Since I got accepted I've had the chance to learn a lot about people and have shit tons of fun. I'll be graduating Spring 2011. And I'm looking forward to the next experiences I'll have afterwards although I know I'll miss all the friends I have now being together.

I'm from the philadelphia area and have been here most of my life. I currently work in a pharmacy and have been for the past year but before that my main job over summers was Life guarding while I just went to classes during the school year. Becoming a lifeguard was one of the best decisions I could have made as a teenager. It was a fun and relaxed job.

I've always loved playing in any kind of sport.In high school tennis was a passion of mine, I also was on the football, wrestling and swimming team. I loved all sports though. What I love is the physicality of it and the competition along with the comradre of being on a team. Recently my fraternity joined a intramural dodge ball league at Temple's campus. It was amazingly fun. And it was heart wrenching losing in the semifinals. I hadn't played any team sports since high School but was reminded recently that playing with a team is just an incredible feeling.

Currently While I'm on break from school my goal is to get in the best shape of my life and to get there I've been studying up on everything I can about nutrition and work outs.

I still listen to certain speeches from transformations and foundations, and read old articles that motivate and inspire me to take action whenever I feel I'm slacking. Pretty much love anything motivating

The past year and a half I've had my first serious GF ever that I met at my FIRST frat party in my third year of college. I never could relate to all those relationship problems that people are always complaining about until now.

My life now revolves around going to school, going out with friends, spending time with my girlfriend, handling business in the fraternity, and doing my best to set an example for my family. I'm the oldest of 5 children by a decent margin of 7 years to the next youngest. So now that I'm older its obvious that I was the accident.

I'm proud of who I am and where I am now. And I want the best there is to offer in this life and live it to the fullest.
