Chillin like a .......
Villan!
lol whats up! hows every one, yeah and I can't wait to see my Dallas buddies too...like MOSES UVERE the most awesomest D town person ever! lol
yo so I've been listening to this group called Nevertheless lately man I love their album "In the Making." Its pretty cool. Its an interesting sound, I love how the lead singers vocals really cuts through the mix and reaches you. He's got a great voice. One of my favorite songs is Topics. I'm a sucker for pianos. I love that organic sound of the hammer hitting the strings on a baby grand, I love the ambient sound of a piano playing in a large room, and this song does a great job combining the delicate rawness of the piano with the sweet sound of the singers voice to create a beautiful balled! So yeah anyways go pick up there album!
I've been on spring break this week, Its been nice. I've been busy most the week but Its been fun. Tonight I have praise and worship practice so It looks like another long day, I need to go to the barber shop my hair is getting so long. Hope every one is having a great day!

The Laundry Mat
Just thought I'd blog about whats been going on lately.
I've been trying to play catch up with school work, that's been fun.....
and I had a MIDTERM yesterday, I'm pretty sure I aced it, but anyways I was bummed on Wednesday when I went to go to the laundry mat.
I usually go to this place across the street from where I live called "Best Wash and Dry" This guy named Wong runs the place, he's a really nice man, he and his wife are always there working. Well when I get there the place is closed down, like they shut it down there is no sign up there any more and it was dark. I was sad because I really was trying to learn Korean from Wong and I didn't even see this coming. I guess the economy really is taking a toll on businesses. Even coin laundrys!
Oh yeah and the tires on my car are messed up :( really sucks. I'm going to buy new ones today. I totaled my expenses for the last 2 weeks, I've really been stimulating the economy! I've spent about 1600 in the past 2 weeks....which for a broke 20 year old is a lot...
but on a lighter note....Bryan's wedding is coming up! Shout outs to him and Esme!
I'm looking forward to attending that wedding, and I'll be bringing 2 wonderful ladys with me...my girlfriend Joselin and her twin Jackie. Can't wait to see my Fort Worth buddies!!!

Is he Back? A life update
Hey every one,
Its been a long while since I've written a blog. It seems like every couple of weeks I tell my self I'm going to write a new blog, and well, the weeks turn to months and before you know it its been like 4 months since I've written.
I can't promise to write often, I would love to but life has been so busy for me. I was looking back at the past 8 months and I asked my self, "Is it really supposed to take this long for me to get back on my feet here in Atlanta." Its been harder than I thought.
The reason I felt like writing was because I had a very interesting conversation this morning with 2 men I really respect, who encouraged me to follow my dreams. Something they said really resonated with me. They told me to take risks now, while I was young and able. Often times we are scared to take risks. Maybe its the fear of failure, or the fear of loosing control, maybe its the fear of stepping out of our comfort zone.
I'm sometimes scared that if I take a risk I won't be happy....but the truth is the times I have taken a risk, I have ended up happier then I thought I could ever be.
For example, moving to Atlanta was a risk for me. Leaving my family, leaving my friends, leaving those people who encouraged me and helped me with my music, that was a risk. Yet the moment I got in my car to leave for Atlanta I felt an excitement. Maybe it was the thought of being independent, or it could have been all the energy drinks I had been drinking. But the fact still remains, once I drove off, I never looked back. I never regretted it. But I did have fear. I remember the moment my parents walked out of the apartment to leave back to Fort Worth, I remember the look on my fathers face, I saw his eyes tear up. I remember giving a hug to my dear friends Alex and Ceaser who helped me move in. But it was when I closed the door behind them that a fear set in, I laid down on my air mattress and thought to my self, "This is it, I hope I can make it."
But taking that risk was the greatest thing I ever did, I stepped out of my comfort zone and I went for something I wanted. I followed my dreams and my life has been great thus far. I have a great job, I'm learning something new everyday, I'm serving in a wonderful church, working with amazing people and I met a wonderful girl who helps inspire me every day. For those who haven't heard I've been dating a young lady by the name of Joselin Padilla for several months now and every new day has been a wonderful adventure. Taking this risk has brought so much joy into my life.
But I know there is still so many more risks that I need to take, so much more I have to achieve. Some days its hard to motivate my self, to get home and keep working. To put my self out there, to be confident in all of the things I've done and show people my talents and what I can do. Its hard to take the risk to invest in my own company, in my own future. What do I have to loose? The only thing that can ever be hurt by taking a risk like that is my pride, and that's been hurt plenty of times before. lol
I guess all that to say I learned a valueble lesson today, that I should chase my dreams NOW, don't wait for tomorrow because tomorrow is never promised. I have to do what I'm called to do. So pray for me. Pray that I will have the courage to begin my journey toward taking risks and working hard.
Ya'll are awesome by the way!
PS Im REALLY gunna try to write more often!!!
the operative word there being TRY! :)
