The funny thing about everything..

..and anything is that you're (for all extensive purposes, anything referring or pertaining to "you" isn't direct at you or anyone. It's passive in the sense that it can be related to anyone. For example, if I were to state, "You are never doing anything," I am meaning, anyone is never doing anything. I'm being broad, I hope this helps. Oh! And FYI, I'm mostly talking about myself, mostly) always learning. You're never the best at what you're doing nor are you any good. What are you then? What are doing then?

Dodging bullets.

You can be absolutely amazing and something and still mess it, it happens everyday. I have a kind of "idea" of how life works. Some may call it a philosophy. I'm going to make it as simple as possible for anyone to understand:

Things are always happening because of other things.

That's it. I could go into huge depth and detail and give tons of description with charts, maps confessions the whole shebang! And you could say, "well that's obvious!" But it gets more complicated than tha--

wait.. this wasn't my intention for this entry. Another time.

I've realized I'm always learning something. Whether new or something I already knew. One can blame the years of abuse with alcohol, or plain Ole "You're a fucking idiot" (by the way, that hurts), but it happens all the time. I've been lucky with everything I've done in my entire life. I don't mean I have luck, I mean I've had opportunities that due to forces within my control or not, where things have been pretty good. But I've gone through a hell of a lot of bullshit too. You take the good, you take the bad (you take 'em both and there you have the facts of life). 

I don't know what I'm saying anymore. Constant edits, re-thoughts, and working on my mom's computer has left me numb. I guess what I'm trying to say is..

That no matter how much I mess up and fuck up, and do things that hurt or upset you, I promise you they're not on purpose. I don't have any excuses for my inability to express certain things, ideas, or feelings, I just want you to know that I'm still trying..

..Pat Morita, I'm still trying. You've been nothing but an inspiration to me, and I just want you to know that I miss you.

Brixton: Somber

This is totally my new hat. Brixton just released their spring wear and this is the one I like most. It's similar to my Castor hat from Brixton, only rugged and cozy looking. This is totally mine in a month or two..

Or maybe this one..

The Beer Blog

I've decided to actually come up with something interesting, I'm going to start a beer blog.
This blog will document my journey and education through the world that is beer. I'm (currently) not an alcoholic, I just enjoy this beverage to the degree where I want to learn more about it and share with the public my spoils. I am aware that there's too many beers out there with microbreweries everywhere. This isn't a toll. I'm not out to "Catch 'em all!" I also want to note that I am no authority. I just drink the stuff, and I know what I like. With this said I will start this blog with my all time favourite commercial beer. I will post the first blog on St. Patty's day. Keep in mind also that this is actually starting as a physical representation of a journal and I'm going to port the information onto the blog. If I can find a sort of "grouping" system on blogger, to group all the beer blogs together then I'll keep it here and hopefully won't have to start another blog. See ya.

Edit: Whoa, after publishing the post, I ran a spell check and I didn't get a single word wrong. Win.

Edit: Grammmar.Fail.Corrected.

So yeah..

I don't really know what's going on with the shirts. The director kind of flaked out on me. (Never called when inspection time came, or showed up). I also don't feel entitled to show off anything that aren't going to end up nor that I own full rights to. But if these become shirts of any sort I'll just release the info. Had band practice today. No class tomorrow. Going to stay home and read/organize. More later, not really in the mood... Who cares.

A month later and still not getting it right..

It's Feb-First and I haven't done ANYTHING right. I keep getting annoyed at nothing. Which only screws me over 'cause when I'm really annoyed at something, I kinda get shrugged off.

Some good news (slightly). Recently I teamed up with an old High School friend to design T-shirts for his clothing line. He has a Hip-Hop/Rock group called 808 (eight-oh-eight), and they're pretty good. If anyone out there is reading this. I'll post a link of the band and some of the rough sketches and design on here when I can.
