Alright, I’m back on my high horse, thanks to Will smith’s brilliant, and touching performance in the movie “Seven pounds”. Ok, I’m not acting like I’m a tough guy or anything, but I usually don’t cry when I watch movies. (That’s not true you teared up when Will smith was holding his son in the bathroom in the Movie “The Pursuit of happiness”…).
Ok maybe I’m a softie, but this movie had me choked up, cause the fate of Will Smith’s character is inevitable, and while you watch the movie, playing detective trying to unravel the true motives of his character you end up revealing just how great and awe-inspiring the kindness and unselfishness that Will Smith’s character exhibited which is extremely rare and is seen in very few people. All I gotta say is that it inspired me to take a look at myself as a person, and you should watch it as well…if you watch it already, WATCH IT AGAIN! lol….
Magic got their ass handed to them by the Lakers in a 4-1 finish in the NBA finals, so I’m not even going to dwell on that subject, cause quite frankly, it hurts so back what’s happening:
I don’t really know what kick me back into high gear but I’m really gettin my life routine back together, I started exercising again, I’m studying my web programming book again, and doing my part to help mom around house. It’s funny cause the other day I wrote a blog barely being able to get my lazy ass out of bed.
But now I’m focused, determined the ambition and drive is back, THE KID IS BACK! Yeah… it felt good to say that but I gotta be consistent if any of these words I write are gonna be concrete or hold any weight, cause saying it when you first doing it and following through are to completely different things.
Okay so the booty, raised a brow no? well….there’s been another area that I wanted to improve in and yeah you quess it relationships. But I think all this time I got wrong cause I know in my previous post I was talking about wanting a relationship and having a girlfriend and the whole nine yards.
But I figured, I’m only like 19 years old, so I should still enjoy myself while I’m still young ya dig? I feel like I missed out on SO MANY opportunities that I had with promiscuous females cause I was how would you say “happy go lucky guy” who didn’t partake in being promiscuous.
Now tell me, ain’t that some bullshit? I’m in my second year of college and barely did shit, cause I’m looking for the ONE, well as of right now….screw that I’m looking what options I got right now. And don’t get me wrong I’m not gonna be an asshole and go from one girl to another, i’m just enjoying myself until I find out who is wifey material….
That didn’t sound to much better did it………
Till next time kids, deuces…..
Yawn…..How the hell did I managed to sleep from 1 p.m to 6 p.m. in the middle of the day? Jesus, I need to be productive, I need I job fast. It’s funny you know because when I was a young lad, I would swear up and down that I didn’t need to sleep and believed if I was by some miracle I did fail asleep I was gonna miss something. I would sleep for like 2 hours and wake up just in time for saturday morning cartoons, as far I was was concerned “sleeping was for the weak”.
But man has time changed, now that my sleep pattern is all messed up, when I wake up I’m still tired, and I have to deal with the consequences of self-pity because I basically slept through the entire day. It sucks, because I lose all my ambition and drive, because when you wake up 6 o’clock in the evening seriously what the hell can you do?
Well….sometime I gotta get head above water or in this case out of the pillow, if I want make a change for the better.
Today began, with the show of promise, because by some divine intervention, one of my mom’s co-workers mentioned a job that her son could work at and told her to tell the employer that edison (i’m guessing the guy’s edison) sent me. When Ma informed me of this last night I simply forced a smile. It wasn’t that I wasn’t grateful that a job opportunity had come my way, it was just that all my other previous job attempts have been lackluster at best.
But I guess in this situation, the chips are on my side because at least I was referred so that is bound to increase my chances of success, so today I thought “You know what today is gonna be different, today holds new opportunities” so like clockwork, I plug my psp headphones in and start to inspire myself by listening to some Kanye Songs. I press shuffle on my psp and “Amazing” 808 drums beat life into my system I’m alive again, I’m amazing it’s amazing i’m the reason everybody fired up this evening, I’m exhausted, barely breathing, holding on to what I believe in no matter what you’ll never take that from me, my reign is as far as the eye can see it’s amazing…..
Getting into the car dressed up, and resume in hand, I didn’t know exactly what job I would be doing, but at this point I was so hype and ready it didn’t matter what the job was I was ready to present myself and make myself look good. Driving through Staten Island, me in the passenger seat, mom at the helm, I look into the clouds and ponder this new direction in life that I’m taking: no longer sitting around the house being unproductive in every shape and form. A glorious life of irregular sleep patterns, unhealthy amount of video game hours, and lack of exercise….every lazy teenager’s dream? Yeah…..kinda but TRUST ME after a while you start to grow up and not all it’s cracked up to be.
The car comes to a sudden halt and back in reality(yeah I tend to drift off…) and scan the surroundings of a dead end street, houses, and a NURSING HOME! Uhhhh…..well….I mean I did say I was down for anything but I really wasn’t expecting to see a NURSING HOME! Then I thought, well my mom has worked with the elderly almost all her life maybe God wanted me to follow in her footsteps, maybe I could learn a thing or two from the people that has lived almost 5 times longer than I have. Maybe if the job goes well…. I can gain invaluable wisdom from these people while making them feel young again, sry I know but a lot of optimistic movie shit goes on in my head of what I want to happen and reality.
So staying optimistic, I make my way to the front entrance, my mom at my side greets the elderly, this old woman holds the door open for me and my mother, extremely kind concerning her small frame. Entering the building I scan the habitat for secretary or receptionist and let me tell I don’t mean to be a jerk or anything but it was like ZOMBIE CENTRAL up in there, lots of lethargic, feeble, and blank expressions. But then I remember all these people like me was a teenager just like me, and one day inevitably I would be old, lethargic, and feeble just like them. So I kindly greeted the elderly as I made my way to the receptionist desk.
The receptionist glares it me as if I’m lost, but I’m pretty sure I’m in the right place so I tell her I’ve came to apply for a job and that I sent by edison, not a second after that sentence I pray I said those magic words that would at least guarantee an interview, well….. not exactly because the golden girls looking receptonist simply replied “Edison doesn’t do any of the hiring, but I can sent you application to administrative services”. I utter a sigh, has I hand over the resume with the application, damn another job opportunity foiled. My mom cheers my spirits my telling me at least you got the application in but I simply look back into the clouds.
Will Today Be That Day Of New Opportunity? Don’t get you hopes up…lol
