So it’s been thrown around a few times that your boy loke is somewhat of a techie nerd. What of it? Actually, I am not, punk. Does the fact that I am writing this post from my new iPhone 4 qualify me for that title? If so, I embrace it proudly! But let’s be honest, shall we? Am I really? Do I know code? Do I understand tech jargon like proxy network, beta, processing speed or can I write my name only using 0′s and 1′s? No. True I posses mad wizardry Photoshop and rendering skills, but that’s not nerdy, that’s art and design. Yes I love technology, slick phones- sue me. If anything I am what you communication majors call “early adapters.” look it up, you will see me and Phil from Modern Family as spokesmen. So to all you haters out there who gripe about apples trendy products, annoying commercials and “faulty reception” consider this: I just posted this rant on my glorious iPhone 4 flawlessly. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
this is a test. does anyone still check this blog out? i now have more time…if you still check this every once in a while- leave a comment so i can see how popular i am, i mean how many followers i have. err. uh. how many people care about anything i say…comment por favor.
school has started once again and i am back at it. it was nice to get a break from the daily commute…but also nice to start up school again believe it or not.
i got a new teacher for studio, who seems pretty nice. hopefully she won’t screw me over like the last one did. i am in a sustainable design class and yesterday we watched Al Gore’s pride and joy “An Inconvenient Truth”…kinda interesting. i am interested i suppose in how to design better and conserve, but i am definitely not interested in Gore’s personal life on the tobacco farm, or how close his presidential race was between W.
so here’s to a new beginning, new challenges and triumphs for the next 10 weeks.pray for my soul.
just wanted to thank everyone for all the birthday wishes. my boss got pretty annoyed that my phone rang off the hook all day long…i secretly enjoyed this little irritation…and i loved all the conversations we had. i am truly blessed to know such loyal, fun, hilarious and giving people. my support runs pretty deep and i am grateful for all of you! thanks for the cards, gifts, texts, facebook wall posts, voicemails and emails. you guys rock my world.
tryin out a new interface. i like the aesthetics of this so we’ll see how it goes
so i can’t believe i haven’t posted about this at all…guess life is nuts and i often focus on whats bringin a man down. BUT, Erika got a new car!!! Thank you a million times over to daddy-o…up and surprised his favorite daughter one day at the Mini dealership. “Kevin Arnold” (her friend ashley also has a mini and named hers Winnie the Mini…thus Kevin Arnold had to be Erika’s ride) is a huge step up from the buggy. Etrain is a mad woman when she drives it…only one speed for her- TOP SPEED! check out the beaute:
Erika challenges anyone to a race! bring it suckahs.
so i just wanted to post something to thank everyone for all you have done for me. i feel like i have a huge fan base- not just fans of my blog- but my life and my happiness. i appreciate so much those of you in my life that have been there for me always, and most of you don’t know how much you have impacted me. i consider myself lucky to have a huge support system filled with amazing people who are selfless and true friends. i know that i have a lot on my plate, and i can count on so many people if i ever need to. if i have come to you in the recent weeks in frustration and or looking for someone to listen, THANK YOU!! you know who you are, but you may never know how much you help and effect me. i appreciate so much the concern of all of you, and the sound advice that i have received. with all these things i am trying to juggle, i am glad i can count on so many people to help me along the way!
You do not start to become who you want to be until you are honest with yourself about who you are right now.
Sometimes you need to be honest with yourself about even the stuff that “sucks” about you. From time to time I feel like I am trying to force myself to be a certain way or to think a certain way, for whatever reason. But in forcing myself, I can never fully assume what it is that I think I should assume. It isn’t until I have let go – or rather honestly assessed that I am being stupid or forceful or dishonest with myself – that I am able to truly see what it is that I want to become, that I should become, and how to get there.
i ran across this entry by an old friend of mine and it hit me… i have noticed that i have been complaining and whining a lot lately like a little girl. i haven’t been satisfied with anything in my life right now- school, work and personal relationships- and i feel like a zombie. going from day to day, barely making it by in all areas, or not making it in some. i suppose i haven’t been honest with myself and who i am, what i am and what i do with my life. sometimes i feel like i am being pulled in all sorts of directions like this dude:
it is hard to juggle all these things on my plate, but i feel like i can definitely be better. i am sick of excuses and feeling like a tird, quite frankly. i am sick of not being “all there” in the situations i face daily. i am sick of responding to the question : “how is it going?” by saying “fine.” or “what are you up to?” with “same old, same old.” its time to be honest with myself and here goes.
i need to quit envisioning what my life will be like in 5 yrs and make it that way now.
i am an intelligent man, who makes unintelligent decisions daily.
i have an amazing wife, who for some reason sticks around.
i have dreams to be a successful and prominent architect. now is the time to put those dreams on the table while they are still accepted in Architecture school.
i am a baby.
i am a freakin riot.
i have amazing style and people would pay thousands for locks like mine.
i am terrible with money and time management…but am trying to be better. honest
i can jam on the guitar
i have mad drawing skills
i make the same mistakes over and over…i am a slow learner
i am stubborn and passively aggressive
i am a “nice guy”
ok. i am starting to feel like a cheesy dove soap commercial. but i am open to any other things that anyone else can contribute about who, how or what i am.
what do you think? i was sick of taming the mighty fro. plus etrain was was sick of seeing my hair everywhere. so fresh and so clean, clean!!
