Where Did Everyone Go?
Lately, I've noticed that all of my friends are streesing out about something. Most of them are stressing out about time, and how they don't have enough of it to do what they have to do. It's not like it's just one or two, it's almost all of them. This makes me wonder am I slacking? Do I have enough on my plate? Or do I just have really good time management?
I mean I am taking 18 credits this semester (4 Classes and a 6 credit internship). I go to school Monday nights, and Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:30- 12:00, I work on Sundays, and I go to Madison Square Garden for my internship on Mondays, Wedensdays, and Fridays. I personally don't feel like I am slacking, but it seems like whenever I want to chill, my friends can't because they are too busy, whether it is school, work, internships, girlfriends, basketball, track, boxing, football, etc.
It's weird it seems like just yesterday I used to chill with these people all the time, but now it's different. Everyone seems like they are busy. Once, again I honestly feel like Vinny Chase lol. Turtle got Jamie Lynn (his girlfriend) and school, E got his job and his girl, Drama got his TV show, and Ari is always busy running the agency. What happened?! When did everyone get so busy?
This made me think maybe I should go harder. On Friday I met a few full-time employees at the garden who used to be interns just like me! I was talking to them, trying to learn their story, and one common theme was "bust your ass and go all out"! They told me they worked so hard going in 5 days a week and putting in like 40-60 hour weeks. So I told myself "Fuck it"! I'm going all out! So I spoke to my boss and asked him if I can start coming in on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school even if it's for like 4-5 hours, I just want to be here and learn. I get out of school at 12, so I figure I can get to the garden hopefully around 2 and work until whenever. He said "sure", I want to prove to him, to my friends, to colleagues, and to myself that I can do it. Now I am going to be the busy one. I am going to be the one on top of his grind, a non-stop hustle. I want to keep interning here at the garden for my next 3 semesters!
I think, no I know I can. I feel like if I can be successful for these next like 3 months, I can do anything. I mean I am looking at my life, and I see that I don't have to devote my time to anyone other than myself. So why not just do it? I don't gotta hangout with my girl, I am not devoting myself to a sport (at the moment), so I am going to devote myself to my career, and my future. I feel like I am doing more than most of my peers are doing right now. How many other people can honestly say they are in my position now? Thats not to sound cocky, thats just for me to say damn you almost there but don't let up.
Now that I touched up on what I am doing, I hope my friends keep stayin busy with themselves and what they are doing. The more I think about what they have in their life, makes me want to do more and more. Most of them got girls and/or sports, so now my girl/sport is going to be my internship! I am estatic to be where I am now. Even though I may not have what my friends have, they don't have what I have. I'm going in! The grind starts today! Don't get it confused though I am not shutting everyone out of my world. I am simply saying "If you make time for me, I am going to make time for you"!
I am simply working hard now so I can play later. "I'm on my Tony Hawk cus life's a girnd".

Rosa Acosta- WOW Enough Said

Her name is Rosa Acosta and she is all over the hip hop industry, she is constantly on twitter, and she is always in and out of the biggest cities, and hotest clubs hosting parties. Damm yo I mean I don't know if she is famous for anything other than being hot, but thats a good enough reason, just wanted to sharee these pics with you guys so you understand where i am coming from. She reminds me of a younger, hotter, new generation of Vida Guerra. Anyway here she is take a look!

When Did This Happen?!
I really wasn't going to blog about this, but Danny told me too, and I've been laughin about it all last night and today so I am going too. So yesterday was my home girl Michelle's birthday and even though we didn't go to fright fest like we planned, because of the rain, we still had a good time. The 17 of us ended up going to Dave & Busters. It was my first time going to Dave & Busters, and even though it was fun, it didn't live up to my expectations.
After we ate we all went to the arcade area and played some games. I saw a few girls that caught my eye from like the moment I went in so I wanted to take this time to go talk to them, but when I was going to go find them or any girls in general I looked around and could not find any of my boys to come with.
I was shocked! I was stunned! When did this happen?! When did all of my boys get a girlfriend or interest and get cuffed up?! Danny had Michelle, Jeremy had Tanya, Justin had Alyssa, Justin had Megan, Lenny had Anna, if Jam was there he would of had Jenny. Wooooowwwwww when did this happen LOL?! Literally ever had a hand to hold! I mean it really did not bother me as much as one would think it would.
One reason is because when I first walked in me and Jenny looked around and immediately started crackin up when we saw this group of about 4 girls look my way and smile at me. She was like "uh-oh John you got some fans". Then after we ate me and Danny went by some game and were chillin until these two girls came by us and smiled at me. I knew they were feelin me cus they smiled right in my face and tried gettin my attention after one of them pushed the other one basically on me LOL.I gotta admit it feels good when you can just chill and girls come up to you.
The whole point of the story is that almost all my friends got a girl lmaooo. I feel just like Vinny Chase this season because its almost like I'm takin a back seat because now all of my friends are coming into their own. I am really happy for them and I hope that they all have fun with their "significant others" lol. For the time being I am gonna stay doing me because that's what I know best.

The KiD CuDi Effect
I don't know what it is but whenever I am feeling weird or confused, like I just want to mellow out or relax it seems like I just gravitate to Kid Cudi. Like if I am feeling pressures or something is heavy in my mind and I am trying to think of a strategy all I want to do is lay down in a dark room and listen to Cudi.
I feel this is so unique that like the words of one person who you don't even know can relax you of all your pressures, fears, anxiety, paranoia, worries, basically any sorrowful feeling can just mellow me out.
Ironically I'm listening to him now for the same reasons hearing his songs just puts me at ease. I just wanted to share that with you guys, and I hope one day I can be a KiD CuDi for you!

Words of Wisdom- Take It Before It Passes You By
So I got a few words of wisdom for you guys here it is: Take advantage of what's going on for you right now!
If you got something special going for you now no matter what it is; an opportunity, a skill, a mind set TAKE IT! Don't let it slip through your hands because before you know it, its going to be gone. The skill will diminish, someone else will take what you should have, or the opportunity won't be there, and you will have to live with that for the rest of ya life. Just thinking "Damn I wonder how that could of been?" "Wow how much better would my life be if I took advantage of what was right in front of my face on October 5, 2009!"
Everyday that goes by you are letting precious time pass by, when you could be enjoying your life 10x better. I'm going to keep this short and sum it up right here:
You are slowly watching the best thing in your life slip away so go grab it while you still can, because its not going to be there for too much longer!!!!
