Everything is a life lesson. Everyone you meet and everything you encounter. They’re all part of the learning experience we call “life.” Never forget to acknowledge the lesson, especially when things don’t go your way. If you don’t get a job that you wanted or a relationship doesn’t work, it only means something better is out there waiting. And the lesson you just learned is the...
A smile doesn’t always mean a person is happy. Sometimes it simply means they are strong enough to face their problems.
Nobody is perfect, and nobody deserves to be perfect. Nobody has it easy. You never know what people are going through. Every one of us has issues. So don’t belittle yourself or anyone else. Everybody is fighting their own unique war.
There comes a point in life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything, but it’s not giving up. It’s realizing you don’t need certain people and things and the drama they bring.
Absorb what is useful, reject what is useless, add what is specifically your...

Breaking Point
Written words are easy to understand but you don’t know how I feel and what I’m going through. I’m having a hard time coping with this lifestyle. Now it feels as if I’m lost and I don’t know who I am anymore. Easing this pain will be difficult but I’m holding strong..
Start giving your ideas and dreams a chance.
In life, it’s rarely about getting a chance; it’s about taking a chance. You’ll never be 100% sure it will work, but you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Most of the time you just have to go for it! And no matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should be. Either you succeed or you learn something. Win-Win.
Start facing your problems head on.
It isn’t your problems that define you, but how you react to them and recover from them. Problems will not disappear unless you take action. Do what you can, when you can, and acknowledge what you’ve done. It’s all about taking baby steps in the right direction, inch by inch. These inches count, they add up to yards and miles in the long run.
Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of...

Be your imperfectly perfect self.
In this crazy world that’s trying to make you like everyone else, find the courage to keep being your awesome self. And when they laugh at you for being different, laugh back at them for being the same. Spend more time with those who make you smile and less time with those who you feel pressured to impress. Be your imperfectly perfect self around them. We are not perfect for everyone, we are...
Pay attention to who your real friends are.
As we grow up, we realize it becomes less important to have more friends and more important to have real ones. Remember, life is kind of like a party. You invite a lot of people, some leave early, some stay all night, some laugh with you, some laugh at you, and some show up really late. But in the end, after the fun, there are a few who stay to help you clean up the mess. And most of the...
Forgive people and move forward.
Don’t live your life with hate in your heart. You will end up hurting yourself more than the people you hate. Forgiveness is not saying, “What you did to me is okay.” It is saying, “I’m not going to let what you did to me ruin my happiness forever.” Forgiveness is the remedy. It doesn’t mean you’re erasing the past, or forgetting what happened. It means you’re letting go of the resentment and...
Family isn’t always blood. They’re the people in your life who appreciate having you in theirs. The ones who encourage you to improve in healthy and exciting ways, and who not only embrace who you are now, but also embrace and embody who you want to be. These people, your real family are the ones who truly matter.
Free yourself from negative people.
Spend time with nice people who are smart, driven and like-minded. Relationships should help you, not hurt you. Surround yourself with people who reflect the person you want to be. Choose friends who you are proud to know, people you admire, who love and respect you, people who make your day a little brighter simply by being in it. Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the...

Why do I feel like I'm being taking advantage of?
Friends? I need to draw a line somewhere. They can’t always rely on one person all the time even if it is the same person.
Money, I would appreciate if you would stop depending on me for food and basically anything that you crave for. I work hard for my money. I would also like to spend it wisely and not carelessly. I’m grown, independent, and responsible. I have many things to care...

It's been awhile..
Work has played its role in my life. It has taken away my social life, sleep and even my goals. School has been out of the picture lately. I really want to go back but I feel as if I can’t handle all the pressure from work and school. I tried it once but I failed.
Sleep is something that I don’t have enough of. Ever since they had me doing graveyard shifts a while back I got used to...

Passion takes it toll.
So I’m finally taking my dreams into action. I got my appointment for the Art Institute of Seattle today. I’m hoping I do get accepted because I can’t stand just having a job. I want a career. Also this would be something new to me, going to school for the one thing I love and want to do. Graphic Design.

INspired.
I always wanted a night to just chill and draw. I need to get back to drawing though. I haven’t touch my sketch book since I got a job.

Last.FM is officially my favorite! Good music right when you need it!
Makes Me Think
Tonight a customer comes and ask about the menu but little did I know, it turned into a conversation. He actually made me think. He told me to think about my parents and what they did for me. They may not need me now but later they will when they’re old. He said moving out is a bad choice because you don’t know what the outcomes and results may be. I’m young now and I only...
Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see...
Ignore your passion and follow the money.
That’s something I just decided on. Not because I’m lazy but because I can’t deal with with the work load and stress. My sleep schedule is off so I’m stuck with insomnia for about the whole summer. I can’t blame anyone but myself. I need to take care of this my way so I’m doing the best I can. I know that I’m still young which means I still have time to...
I love my friends.
I’m glad I have the friends I have. We could come up with anything and still have a good time. I can’t wait to grow old with them.

I hate family drama.
Nobody’s RIGHT. It’s all bullshit that doesn’t even matter. Everyone is picking sides and but we all see things differently. I wish our point of views were similar so we would agree on it easily.

It isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s...
You know, I never really understood how to take action in my dreams instead of just waiting for everything to pass by. If I keep waiting I will never get anywhere and other opportunities will be given to others who actually took matter into achieving their dream. What really counts is gaining experience in what you desire for. If it pays or doesn’t, it should not matter because you doing...
When life gets stressful, we often forget the things we should remember, and...
Stop blaming.
Blaming others accomplishes nothing. Either you own your problems, or they will own you. Your choice. When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility, you give up your power over that part of your life, and you annoy everyone around you in the process.
There is one key factor that can either damage your relationships or deepen them. That factor is your attitude. If you’re hoping to grow and maintain positive relationships in your life. You need to find out what’s causing it.
Finally in Long Beach
And I’m bored as fuck. It’s so fucking hot though. I need to get out an do something. I’m here only for a week and I don’t want to waste it by being stuck in the house all day. :/
The Unthinkable.
Tonight I’m doing something that has never crossed my mind before. I don’t know why but I had a sudden urge to attempt it. I see it as a little fun from all the stress I been going through. Let’s hope it goes well.

If you were to give me a chance, I’d be there. Sometimes I am misread because I have a dick and a mind to go with it. The part of getting to know someone better is when you decide and realize who they are. You won’t know unless you try. Maybe you’ll find out something new or otherwise you’ll teach them something new. So it all goes both ways but behind it all no one sees...
I know you’re reading this. And I want you to know I’m writing this for you. Others will be confused. They will think I’m writing this for them. But I’m not.
This one’s for you.
I want you to know that life is not easy. Every day is an unpredictable challenge. Some days it can be difficult to simply get out of bed in the morning. To face reality and put on that smile. But I want you to...

I can't stop.
That feeling after you finally met someone for so long that you can’t forget about them.
