Thanksgiving Weekend & Black Friday

2007-11-24T17:31:00.000-05:00

Thanksgiving has been the break i have been waiting for. I have just been lounging around. Catching up with movies, tv shows and just relaxing. I feel so good.

I went shopping yesterday, I am just not in the mood to shop, its not to find my size epecially since i gained i think ten or 15 pounds still unsure on how much. It was nice spending time with NB, We had breakfast in Panero/a (not sure about the spelling), I like their cappuccino and the cream cheese on the bagel hit the spot. We shopped mainl looking for boots and cold gear for N's trip to LV. I couldnt believe how careless the people were in Macy's with her, it was like we dont have time. That horrible customer service is what drives bad business with the spread of mouth. It should be addressed. I walked out with express t-shirts, jeans and a Banana dress shirt. We cant forget my Aldo chains, lol one of them broke as I am trying something out.

I put the shirt down and I am holding unto my bags and during this exchange the cross falls and i realize how coincidental it was that i really wanted to purchase two of the same kind of the crosses and just one of the keys.

I just updated the Myspace music player.

You gotta see Antibodies if you can stomach a serial killer of the kid kind, it really focuses more on this local police officer and how sometimes the bigger government agencies overlook something. Its in german with english subtitles.

Boy Culture, gay Pretty Woman minus the unbelievable ending and the rich suitor. I like the analysis of some gay relationships.

Now on to continue reading Quickie or to start another movie.

Study might find correlation between homosexuality and twins

2007-11-19T03:36:00.000-05:00

This goes back to the debate about whether homosexuality is a choice (preference) or could be it environmental (upbringing, trauma or in this case, genetic).

Hopefully it will adhere to a good population size, ethical code and the results can be
reproduced.

Waiting for the cable guy/woman

2007-11-10T15:57:00.000-05:00

Waiting for mister cable to come lay it on the tv.
Lol.
Too bad isnt in my best interest to care if he comes or doesn't but here I am waiting for him/her.
For what?
One brothers just got an HDTV so here needs to have hd content besides his xbox 360.
I have been feeling ill and just wanting to chill at home and no do a damn thing.

Pretty chill week, its interesting how if you do set yourself up to be boring it happens and when you desire interesting its hard to find.

I have been researching some sites to learn html and basic coding so I do finally get to code I will have some prior knowledge.
I got a new haircut, care of my middle brother who had to take my hair. After that experience, either he will need a new razor to cut my hair or I will just dish out close to $20 to get a professional to get my hair did.

I think i might go for a walk after five. Need to update my tunes first.

life

2007-11-04T13:28:00.000-05:00

it has been an odd turn of events. i met sandra's family. they were nice and pretty chill ppl. i cant believe that like always she had a sore puss face. i going to school but forcing myself to go, i rather be home resting. damn this cold and now since it seems that the cold is starting to creep up in miami. i am happy that i finally got a laptop of my own. the webcam doesnt work all that well except for online broadcasting, lol web cam freak, lol. yes but its pretty cool. i am taking intro chem intro chem lab theater appreciation and lit 2480. i should be typing up two reports that are due for that class but hence i am here. procrastination gets the best of me, lol.

it seems a lot of things are back on the way they were before, nat has a guy, barb has a guy. sandra is bigger again. i am single and just trying not to focus on it and thinking of more i need to do this and that for school.

work is eh. stopped talking 2 two coworkers. cant believe i am overrated because they feel they needed to communicate with me. hopefully they live up to their promise.

family is good. mom stopped dating someone. hopefully its for good. dude wasnt worth it.
bros are good. one getting another job. the other i guess happy with gf and baby (that mean little girl, lol.)

so what is now now, hmm.....
i guess nothing really. i guess ppl are cyclic to a point, we follow patterns sometimes unbeknown to us. i see it in myself, my family, friends and the world.

been reading dexter series, i need to read book 3. also kite runner, a thousand splendid suns.

i think thats about it.

what else is happening? talking to guys online and through text but not really hitting that much attraction with anyone. like talking to one guy, seems cool, older focused on career, into new age.

next semester shall be different with taking 3 classes, having 2 days off and back to saturday morning classes, oh joy. but glad i have two days off to really study during that time period. its for the best i believe to see the patterns, maybe change it within its limitations because they are limits we can break but others arent there for us to break.

well i guess ttyl.

february 2, 2007 marked my 22nd birthday and like always i share it wit the groundhog, depending if it wants to see in its hole or come out (lol, too many jokes so u make ur own) determines how long winter will b or if spring is coming.

Jo invited me to benihana for lunch, the chef kept calling me "my friend" and made tons of jokes. It was cool because we had the whole table to ourselves.

Dinner, Nat picked me early so we could walk around the falls. Samurai was too packed so we re-re-re located (original plans were Opa on the beach then Prive, then Opa in Hollywood) to Tony Romas in South Miami.

Which Dalia, Eloy, Vanessa and Chino attended also.

Nat gave me this nice Express sweater :) and got a gap gift card from dalia and chino :) 2 gap card :0)

Then Chino, Nat and me went to starbucks to talk for about 2 hours.

Saturday, spent it with Sandra watching American Wedding and Soul Plane (omg so freaking funny) on her new Psx 2.

Sunday, saw Senseless (lol movie), cleaned my room. Couldnt sleep so saw The Guardian ( heart moving tale of an instructor and student and how both of them are still dealing wit a traumatic experience... you must see it).

Whats on for today, gym n movies.

Its freaking cold today, brrrr... whats up wit that :(

NIGHTMARES, THOUGHTS, PAST WEEK

2007-01-22T09:20:00.000-05:00

Hellbent, a gay slasher film. Loved it. Not only for the eye candy and sexuality but also for what it meant. A gay horror movie. With what would be considered a gay villain, a masked muscled man with a hook. Definite download, don’t know if the studio will have a Vongo or Cinema contract or permission but who knows.

Crank, just a total guy movie, non stop adrenaline action. Avoid pause or any side entertainment, this thrill ride is best experienced non stop. Vongo dl.

Employee of the Month, wholesale shopping experience as experienced by its workers, the hierarchy and zany characters are a must see. The special features must be viewed to understand the back history of its main characters.

The Matador, Pierce Brosnan plays a very diverse role as a as off the wall assassin, who has lost it. Nice plot twists. Vongo dl.

Children of Men, another futuristic world in which Britain is still the only working society or country. Women are infertile and there hasn’t been a pregnancy for about 18 years and four months and a couple of days. Radical groups are fighting against the governments anti immigration and deportation rules. Vongo dl.
Wont get that much into plot development since its a lot.

Mission Impossible III, the best mission impossible for me so far. Never saw one, liked two. The love story and the whole concept of you can never leave your agency job makes it engaging. Espionage on espionage paranoia makes you second guess who you can trust in the movie. Twists and turns can be expected. Vongo dl.

Leg has been cramping up a bit. Damn knee. Hopefully it gets in place and in working order for the race on Sunday. Still cant believe it starts at 6 am. Not get up at 6 but be there to start at six!!!
Hopefully I will wake up in time. I guess I will see what I am made of. This week has been work and working out. I am noticing difference in my arms and that’s about it. My abs are eh and my non existent chest needs a lift, lol. Havent been volunteering since I keep oversleeping on Sunday. I may change my schedule to a weekday still don’t know which. I will see what day works out best for me. Found out that The Real Housewives of Orange County is back on for Season Two.

Oddest dream ever, seriously not a dream. It was the type of nightmare that you just stay up in bed, eyes opened and think to yourself what the fuck! Your mind has no limits to the tortures it can cause on you. I guess I will begin with the dream and do the whole breakdown and how I felt.
I am sitting in a room, with a guy who I am interested in fucking and so is he but before that I learn of his true nature. That hes a pedophilia in my head I am like yeah what are my exits and I will get out of here even if I have to die trying. So he begins to tell me that we could have a very successful life together, get married, have fun but that he has this tendencies which he will have to fight. He begins to tell me what makes a pedophile click, he begins with flags with symbols, I don’t understand the symbols in the flag so he explains them to me. Of a bear and smaller bear and I picture it a cub walking and all of a sudden, a bear grabs and takes hold of him. The flag I believe is a state flag that’s red. Then he explains another flag and then all of sudden like the video just finishes he stops talking and I am just looking at him for a while, like he wants to see more but there is no dialogue. I wake up and I am so panicked. I don’t know whether to get up or turn on the light or go back to sleep. I really don’t want to go back to sleep.

What does it mean? The same thing as always I guess I am always intrigued by people who are deem to be off the spectrum of normalcy or have neurosis. Why do they just engage in this lifestyle, whether its neurological, environmental: a cause of society or nurture, genes: does nature pick these individuals (this goes to my belief that for our systems of politics, religions, nature that you need people that are for progress or for destruction, the people that choose not to do any action and realize the duality and people that fall in between). Why did I stay when I could have fled? The belief that he didn’t mean to harm me but just speak to me and tell me how it is. My curiosity kept me there and I guess out of courtesy I listened. Why pedophilia with this guy? I don’t get the whole age thing in the gay culture, like ISO older guys or ISO younger guys or guys just my age, etc… I understand to gravitate around people around your age the whole a couple of years younger and a couple of years older because you have similar goals & ambitions and are in a similar phase in life. The whole daddy culture, how does that happen? Why feel the need to be the older one, out of power, out of need to feel younger, to be the more masculine one?
I am by no means out of this thinking, I realize when I was 18 that I couldn’t be with a guy my age because I was uncomfortable I didn’t think I could find a guy around my age so I found an older guy. He said I was cute and I thought about older means experience. It does but at the same time sometimes I can tell that the guy is with me because of my age and he likes it and mentions it, I don’t know if out of guilt out of pride: I cant believe you are younger and I am older or a combo. Not saying all guys are like this. Just I figure out the look and know.

So yeah this is my nightmare so far. I let myself go in dreams, whatever happens happens. I am in auto pilot automatically. It happens me sort out things I wonder, not so give me closure but helps me figure out things with an example scenario or story.

Friday, Carnival De Barranquilla, maybe? Saturday, resting and movie day. Sunday, race day and sleeping day.

Wish me luck.

V for Vendetta Quotes

2007-01-16T17:20:00.000-05:00

I am unsure of the true author of the following quotes, I just know they came from the movie V for Vendetta. Not claiming ownership just blogging them for future use:

But you cant kiss a idea, kiss an idea, touch it, hold it
Ideas don’t bleed do not feel love feel or pain. It is not an idea that I miss but a man.
Evey Hammond

No one escapes their past
No one escapes their judgment.

Who is the form is following the function of the what?
And what I am is a man of a mask. I merely remarking about the paradox of asking a masked who he is.

Do not play with dice and don’t believe in coincidence.

Remember remember
The fifth of the November
Guy powder treason and plot
I know of no reason why the gun treason should be forgot

Words will always retain their power

Words offer the means to meaning

And for those who will listen the enunciation of truth

There’s no certainty only opportunity

Symbols are given power by people
Alone a symbol is meaningless
But with enough people blowing up a building can be powerful

Violence can be used for good
What are you talking about?
Justice

My father was a writer… he used to
Artist use lies to tell the truth
While politician use them to cover the truth up.

By the power of truth, I ,while living have conquered the universe.

And thus I clothe my naked villainy …
With oldl odd ends forth stolen from holy writ..

And seem a saint when most I play a devil

There are no coincidences only the illusion of coincidences.

Is it meaningless to apologize?
Never

An inch.
It is small and it is fragile and it is the only thing in the world worth having.
We must never lose it or give it away.

life so far this past week

PIC FROM YESTERDAY

Daily pic of the day has become impossible so far. Let me hijack my lil bros cell phone to take a pic today. I have seen the error in this project by depending on my cell phone. There is less problems with a disposable digital camera than a cell phone but what is done is done. Just took the pic. I deleted the picture and the sent message. Hopefully I can retrieve it tomorrow. This past week has been pretty chill and uneventful as far as going out. I still am waiting for my bank card. Hopefully it arrives by Wednesday so I can send a copy so I can re-establish some automatic payments again like my laptop and Netflix. I think I will be internet less at home. It makes it easier to concentrate on my short term goals like getting ready for the half marathon and concentrating on bringing my Netflix queue down. Friday was uneventful, I went to the gym saw my fitness coach and she instructed me to run 6 miles for three days this past weekend (which I didn’t do) and helped me out with some triceps exercises. Saturday, went to my coworkers for a barbecue. The food was abundant, the service superb and the company was entertaining. We drank, saw a game and ate.

Sunday, I went to the Taste of The Grove, Food and Wine Tasting. I didn’t think I was going to go but Natalie reassured me it was okay and that I owed her two lunches in the future to make it up for it. It could have been a great afternoon if I had dreamed it. The weather was nice and breezy and cloudy yet not too cold. When entering you were at stage one for the event, the ticket tent. Here you purchased your tickets for all the different booths and also the wine tickets which were $10. The other tickets sold for $1 each and were redeemed at each tent for the samples. The samples prices range from one ticket to eight tickets.
I truly enjoyed the Shrimp Tempura from the Sonesta Hotel, who could go wrong with that selection. Their ceviche was appalling and lacked taste. It was drowned in mayonnaise and resembled more a shrimp cocktail gone bad. I truly loved the pistachio biscotti and the coconut macaroons. Truly delectable and salivating. The steak taco from Sandbar was awesome. Last but certainly not least is the risotto with mushrooms from GNU at Grand Bay. It really was one of the biggest samples at a great price. I washed this all down with a three dollar Pepsi (yeah but what can you do). I really enjoyed the food excursions. I really might consider visiting the GNU at Grand Bay Hotel for a lunch.

Afterwards, Natalie did some shopping and I just offered my critique on each piece and then I got home just in time for Desperate Housewives and L Word.
Desperate Housewives, Danielle the official slut of the block is caught with Edies nephew on the couch. Zack Young resurfaces as Gabrielle’s secret admirer. Orson’s ex, Alma is more psycho than we think she is by revealing that all she wants is hope that Orson will someday come back. Toms pizza business was going down before it even opened. Lynette flashed a guy to sign a petition to get the liquor. Susan discovered that her precious honor student, Julie was having casual sex with Edie’s nephew. Julie decided to deceive a doctor with Edie’s help to get birth control pills. Brie finds teeth in Alma’s house with a picture of Orson’s flight attendant.

L Word, Shane is taking care of her little brother, Shay. Jenny is shocked when a Jewish, Buddhist lesbian trash talks her book as narcissistic and vulgar. Papi is discovered as a latin lover who gets around.
I guess that’s it for this entry. L Word is really exploring so many dynamics and types of relationship. Cant wait to see what happens to Helena and the trannie woman.

I saw V for Vendetta (will post some quotes I liked from the movie on another entry) and Hard Candy.

V for Vendetta, the overthrow of a fascist police state with the help of a terrorist vigilante. In a futuristic Britain government, there is a man who fights not only for intolerance and injustice but fights for his fellow citizens to realize that their government has overstepped their boundaries and have stripped them of their basic rights. Natalie Portmans portrayal of the scared citizen who goes through a metamorphosis is worthy of an Academy Award. V is a unique hero, an anti hero that helps her and the citizens of London speak out against their government. Definitely a Cinema Now download.
Hard Candy, a pedophile delight turns out to be too hard to chew. The intimate feeling and camera affects make what would be a dull movie, hard paced and thrilling. The psychological mind games played by both characters and the twists whether Hailey can carry out her plan and what her true motive is will keep you glued to the screen. Another Vongo download.

PIC OF THE DAY

2007-01-08T17:15:00.001-05:00

movies from yesterday and this and last week

2007-01-07T02:49:00.000-05:00

The movies I saw today are as follows: In Her Shoes (like the last forty five minutes) and The Producers (had already begun) .

In Her Shoes, cute chick flick about sisters at different spectrums yet always there for each other. No matter what happened, the older one was there for her sister. No matter how bad the younger sister got treated she reassured her sister about herself. The older sister felt horrible about her appearance because of an ex boyfriend. Don’t want to go into specifics of plot because it really doesn’t warrant any kinda predictable at times. If this genre is for you, this is a must see.

The Producers, a quirky satire of Broadway musicals, if you rig the accounting books and produce a flop you can walk out with 2 million dollars. The story follows two producers who are in a search of a flop, a musical so bad that it would be cancelled after its opening night. They hire a secretary because of her stunning good looks and her loose sexuality who turns out to be one of the producers girlfriend and is casted into the musical as a dancer. The script, Springtime For Hitler, displaying the infamous leader of the Nazis party in a bright light. At first the crowd was offended until Hitler who is played so campy makes the audience laugh. The screenwriter is angered because of this and shoots or tries to the producers. The police come in and find one of the producers and two accounting books and book him. The other producer runs away to Rio with the secretary who later becomes his wife, has a great time. Comes back to defend his friend and both are sentenced to prison. In jail, they produce a play, something about prisoners and love. They are pardon from Sing Sing Prison because of their production that entertains the prisoners. They produce it on Broadway and promise to never make flops and to bring the best entertainment.

Awesome movie, a must download for me later on when I get a hard drive. My method of downloading is legal now that the means are possible, either Vongo.com or cinema.com depending on prices of movies. That’s still in the distance future because right now I don’t have the money to start my collection or the fast connection or the hard drive to save it on.

Tootsie, a comedy featuring a man who cross dresses to get a role in a soap. He cross dresses because no one will hire him because of his arrogance that things have to be logical. To point out an example, a tomato cant stand up. His character is very progressive not allowing to be treated like a piece of ass by the whorish chief doctor. His character becomes a success which is sometimes he doesn’t like because his goal was only to raise $8,000 to make a movie or play (not sure). His persona becomes popular with older guys till the point someone proposes to her and another wants to sleep with her because she is unattainable. Its hysterical knee slapper.
Black Christmas, as Carlos clearly stated it was a Halloween rip-off. I enjoyed it was a laugh riot. Omg I lost it when someone was done in by an icicle not the killer. It was too funny. If you are a true horror or teen slasher fan this movie is not for you, if you a morbid joke type of person, this will be a treat for you.

The Descent, what happens when egos, paranoia, and man-eating creatures are in the same cave as a group of adventurous thrill seekers is what the movie is about. (lol, horrible sentence but whatever). A distinct concept for a horror movie, shows people for what they truly are and reveals their fears or their fight instincts. The gore was superb.

Pursuit of Happiness, a touching tale of how when everything is going bad but if you keep at a dream it will pay off. Chris Gardner’s wife leaves him, his business of selling portable bone density machines was not the dream investment he thought it would be, owes the IRS till the point they garnish his bank account and has to provide for his son, who is so adorable with his jokes. He must stand out as the best intern to become a broker for the firm, the internship lasts for six months. During the six months, he must reassure his son that things will get better even though they sleep in a bathroom one evening, stay at a homeless shelter, and must carry their possessions with them wherever they go. At the end you just leave optimistic with the notion that as life throws you down, more and more to the point you cant take it, you are up again and appreciate life.

A must download and see for those who like inspiration movies.
Okay now I am done for the moment. Its been a movie type of week, now time to send off the Netflix movies so I can get some others in a bit.
That’s it for now.
Lates.

Old habits die hard

2007-01-07T02:41:00.000-05:00

I know this because I am a creature of habit. I like to drink and over do it. Not to make up for lost time or because I deserve it. I do it because I cant turn a drink or feel I have to keep up with an imaginary person. Who is that imaginary person, the person I compare myself to in every which way person the person who I am measure myself to. He is the best in everything I like, have interest in and do. He isn’t perfect, if he was perfect that would be a flaw because he would be denying his humanity. He is human not an android or cyborg. Hes the reason why I am close to my goal of my body yet not quite. Hes the reason why sometimes I look, pinch, think about my body and its improvement yet know I need to do more. Why sometimes I see my flaws, why I think my standards are achievable, only a select few know this the fact it takes me longer to reach my goals because its not just achieving it but reach the right level.
Now back to the main story, I went to Nat’s party. Tons of fun found out I was in so many pictures with drinks in my hand (in photos there typical items near my person, drinks (both alcoholic and non alcoholic), food, chains and me holding someone) today. I drank too much and started dancing with everyone I knew. Ate the snacks and was enjoying the music. Then the show stopper happen. I played around with this guy and he took it the wrong way. I am so super playful and I am limitless or boundary less with you if we have that type of relationship and we are on that level. I love to lay on people or even grab you and sometimes even hold you. So after it happened I guess others some and he felt like he had to talk to me which was interpreted as let take it outside. We talked and he felt it was necessary to wrestle to show that we were okay and that he was cool. He slammed me to the ground. I was just shocked so I did what I felt was best ran up to my friends room and just laid there and text my friends to come to me. I just kept rambling on and was on the brink of tears (yeah sucks my emotions are superficial when sober so imagine with tons of alcohol they are visible fifty miles away). I repeated over and over again why did he felt he needed to reassert his masculinity and heterosexuality when he really didn’t have an obligation to? I thought he was cool playing around but it wasn’t so. Why??!!! They kept reassuring me that would he did was because of that he had to prove that. Nat gave me a shirt to change into. Lol, it was so nice she was like change I never saw you like that, here as she handed me a shirt. It was super cute and I was like in awe that she did that. I always like to look good at parties and I have really honed on my fashion sense because of her. Not saying I was hopeless I learned a lot of my fashion sense through myself, and through friends like Rene and Sandra. Afterwards everyone in the room left except the hostess who stayed to look after the party.
I write this off as a bad occasion of david being drunk. I think drinking a lot should just be reserved for when I am in the club because I just dance, dance, dance from when we get there till I no longer can distinguish the music. Yes I admit that I know I can drink a lot. I am just happy that I remain conscious while drunk unlike the other time I got wasted and threw up. To this day I cant remember because I blacked out. L yet I work on that every so often to try to recall that event and remember what when I did. My error was that I didn’t want to threw up, I kept getting drinks from a friend at the party and we kept doing shots after shots after shots. I want to believe that I can control negative body functions (esp. vomiting), I rather be queasy all day long then throw up because its not cool even though when I have to I do. Its my bodys defense and mechanism to get rid of stuff that is making me sick.
I woke up with the biggest migraine before you tell me that’s what you get. Just know that I have an allergic reaction to orange juice the worst out of my allergens, I get terrible migraines the following day, blinding head pressure. To make things better I woke up with my contacts on and my right eye was irritated to the point I couldn’t take light because it kept crusting over, not pink eye just happens every so often. I couldn’t volunteer and completely forgot that I made a promise to a coworker to meet her in class for kickboxing. I didn’t volunteer either because I was queasy, irritated and just in pain. My body ached don’t know cuz of the early morning slam, my bed or the blinding migraine or the mix.
I just kept calling my friends in the party and called up also Barbie and Carlos to talk about it.
Overall lesson, if unsure about the guy/person don’t play with them. As far as the guy specifically total avoidance not cause of cowardice but more for personal safety and I don’t have a relationship or a reason to keep in touch, hes a friend of Natalie’s. I don’t need further explanations, apologies, or the need to apologize for anything. Not being the small person that’s bitter just my way of being that I don’t need to have conflicts in my life or people that might bring them.
My picture of the day for Saturday will actually be from today because my cell is dead and waiting for Mar to drop it off when she can. As far as having no phone. Its been cool I have been catching up on movies.
This is it for this entry. Now on to the next.

So the last week is always crazy

2007-01-02T13:17:00.000-05:00

One hell of a ride and way to end the year. A lot has happened and a lot of thoughts need to be transcribed. I have been in need to type just havent had the time for it (yes time that human construct, lol). I will break off entries by day but will choose this entry to start my monthly project of doing a daily photo since i have heard about it through other blogs and it seems interesting concept to do.

I am posting my daily photo for yesterday which looks horrible, i had not bathe or done anything to my hair.

Then afterwards I will post some New Years Eve Pics.

Monday and Tuesday, passed and went without no big significance. I watched Final Destination Three, it wasnt as gory as the previous ones but it was a bit engaging and reminded me of my flinch instinct, lol (yes i flinch, cant help it but when something stays still cuz its dead then moves i flinch). The plot line wasnt that interesting anymore, the deaths subpar, still cant believe i paid to see it and didnt want to get it through Netflix which i havent watched my movies, hmm...

I did manage to watch Four Brothers. Awesome vigilante film that really keeps you watching. The characters were believable, the plot always changing, and just a great action movie.
A must see, you completely forget where you have seen the actors before and just accept that they are adopted brothers that are scorned and out for blood, each dealing with the death their own way.

Hopefully, my plans for later this week will happen and wont fall threw. Work is so mundane, we finish early and I just clean out my inbox, I am happy, my work email has been cleaned out and i purged the deleted items too. I cleaned out my desk and put some new pics, new pic of the desk to come soon. I am updating my blog so check. I guess i have to delete my yahoo email accounts of trash and hotmail (good luck on that one).

Maybe I will update my profile since I use a generic one. I think on Friday I will do that.

Gym today through Sunday (hopefully on the weekend I will come, lol, i should).

Guerras getty and today

2006-12-24T19:58:00.000-05:00

The party was better than last year. More dancing, more appetizers and better music even though the music was on a loop awesome that she went digital with an ipod and stereo speaker.

The party when I got there was mostly everyone in their clicks talking and drinking. Clearly not a picture of a good party, more of a social. I start drinking and I think my friend told me I started dancing so did everyone else. I just remember grabbing this girl to the dance floor that i didnt know. Afterwards the party was in full swing. More people started dancing, the music was great.

I started to get all perverted with one of my girlfriends there, lifting her, dry humping, smacking her ass, all in good taste ofcourse yeah right. I cant believe how people change when they go off to grad school. I saw two friends there how they changed physically, they got skinner not anorexic just right and commented. Both of them future lawyers must remember that in case of any warrants, lawsuits and other legal action anyone wants to take on me, lol.
Guys pretty much look the same every year like i think its weird guys look hotter than girls in the first phase of life, before mid-life crisis and afterwards women are the hot ones.

How many times you see a dashing actor just make u wet when they are young and later you see him and you are like why did men get pregnant and look like toddlers with no hair?
Its also lifestyle choices, genetics has a strong hand in it also and sometimes environment (where you live).

Afterwards stayed up and went over a Cosmo magazine with Natalie looking at 2007 Astro bedside for Gemini (her sign) and Aquarius (mines) looking at sexual days and love days and whats going to happen. Super funny to read and a great laugh while enjoying our as Barbie says "Taco Hell" lol.

Today, took a shower, picked up our pork, congrie and yuca dinner. Took a nap afterwards. Woke up to eat with my passionfruit wine (you must go to Schneblys Winery in Homestead) which really does go great with pork (had three glasses). Watched Evil Dead and now checking up on my webstuff.

I guess thats it for today, tomorrow a chill day then Tuesday back to the hassle of being a slave for the slave drivers, lol.

Have been working out with the fitness coach.

Its great and so so working out with her because she really pushes me.
When I am too comfortable with a weight she adds more but when I am struggling she taked it off. She helps me with my form but makes me laugh while lifting the bars or weights.
Shes pretty cool to work with, so glad i got her.

Work has been boring. So in total from work, i got a nice tie, shirt, 2 itunes giftcards, american express giftcard and twenty bucks, i cant help but feel appreciated.

Been just talking with friends on the phone, not going out and also text messages.
y
Bought a gift for guerras xmas getty, tomorrow need to find a shirt to wear for that then volunteer then go to party!!!

then sunday, workout with coach, then rest finally when i get back from gym, might go out with friends to eat then come back home for dinner.

So this cold is really starting to kick my ass but I hope I can make it till sunday to the gym. After that I will rest and sleep through it. I am proud of the progress that now I follow through with my sets and find it easier to grip on the bars and weights. I think sometime this week I might have to go up if not this week, definitely next.

Getting gifts at work, its awesome I may not have patient contact but I feel loved by my coworkers, whether its throught food, a greeting card, clothes or itunes gift card(awesome and didnt expect it).

Work was work. Tomorrow is the xmas party for our suite so cant wait to see that and i have to get dressed for it.

Tomorrows tentative schedule is: gym @ 530am, shower, go get gift when mall opens or get haircut, not sure which to do first, then go to christmas party, then gym afterwards for a class again.

Then home then shopping or who knows still not sure.

or wake up, get dressed, go to Supercuts, then mall then work then gym then who knows.

Yeah this is a pretty empty blog but I want to keep momentum so I have to write. Lol.

so if something you see on this site now or later is yours, i am not claiming its mines nor making money out of your work and i will resolve it by citing the copyright text, just place a comment in the article where i feature your work.

Work is boring as ever. Going today to kickboxing, hopefully its fun and something that I will enjoy. Then I have to start my workout regime again. Then mi casa to chill.

Its one of those days that drag on for me. Time seems to sit still for the longest. When yesterday I looked at the clock and work was almost done.

Could be because I was busy doing manual labor even though today I was busy too.

Like I promised there goes the picture of my desk. I dont know why the air fresher got placed on my desk again. The nuisance of being the middle desk and next to the copymachine.

Got a cold :( hopefully it will go away. This damn running nose.

Looking at jibjab, lol at what i think is a taylor hicks parody. Must visit for fun times at your convenience. jibjab at msn

Work

2006-12-19T00:35:00.000-05:00

Today was an ordinary Monday. Coming to work late, running around the place looking for charts, doing internet favors for everyone.

I couldnt go to the gym, didnt have time to pack gym bag this morning. I have to make it up on Saturday though. I like the 5 day a week routine. Really works me out and is perfect for my three month goal to have a toned body.

I organized my desk and fixed it up, put the holiday lunch pictures up, put my calendar in between the pics and arranged my male coworkers desk too since I had time to do it.
I packed away some charts that needed to be sent out.

I will take a snap shoot and put it up here later today.

Watching Crocodile Dundee since again I am too lazy to look for the remote. I feel good got invited to an xmas party, having xmas with my family and have a good set of friends.

I am liking blogging daily again.

I guess ttyl because I have to get ready for bed and have to make it to the gym in the morning.

Yearly Collage

2006-12-17T15:30:00.000-05:00

I overslept again and couldnt honor my commitment to the Carnival Center. I will have to make it up sometime during this upcoming week. I think I will change my days to early Saturday afternoon so I could go out afterwards.

That dude again contacted me again this time through IM, saying that after everything he hopes I am enjoying my place and who knows how many hookups i have been in since.
I was like omg can this guy be serious. Now its like hurt feelings turning into weird obessesion.
Lets see how long this will last.

Now about the collage, I decided that yearly I will replace my main pic to a collage of different pictures from that year towards the end of the year (and will change it to another pic occassionally but will revert to it) as a way of looking at where I was, who I was with, what I wore how I dressed myself. Well this collage features pics from last year too.

There are pics from when I was still wearing glasses signifying the subtle change of how I cant live without my contacts. Then the dorm pic reminding me of that time when I had my room and space and the fun times I had there. The bedroom pics that I started taking this year and my favorite picture (lower right) which i like the hairstyle yet can never recreate it on my own it just happens and the tan color. The work picture which everyone can tell because of the backdrop of charts and steel, lol.

Well let me get a move on with my day. Later to enjoy my Dexter at ten to see the finale.

Watch With Kristin

Killer Dexter Scoop! Rudy Dishes on FinaleBy Kristin Veitch Yesterday at 1:52 am
WARNING: If you have not been watching this season of Showtime's Dexter, I'm going to recommend that you not read this article, because it reveals a very important (previously aired) plot point. Instead, I want you to sit tight until the first season of Dexter comes out on DVD or iTunes and get up to speed before the second season premieres next year. Trust me, it's that good—you don't want to be spoiled! Damn you, Dexter. I wanted to hate you. I wanted to shun you. I wanted to turn up my nose at you as the kind of show a good girl like me couldn't possibly sit down to watch more than once. But—damn it!—your crazy-ass little Showtime series got so mind-blowingly good that somehow it became the show I'm thinking about most this holiday season. Does that make me a bad person? Perhaps. A bit psychotic? Clearly. And when you throw in the notion that the three TV actors I'm currently most enthralled by—Zachary Quinto (Heroes' Sylar), Christian Camargo (Dexter's Rudy) and Michael C. Hall (Dexter himself)—just so happen to be, um, serial killers, it's clear they should lock up my loony ass and throw away the key. Before they do, I gotta tell you that if you've been watching Dexter this season (and if you haven't, you shouldn't be reading this!), you're probably gonna have something close to a heart attack when you see the season finale this Sunday on Showtime. Holy *#$@! There is a twist that was so unexpected (at least to me) that I developed temporary Tourette's and sent the neighborhood dogs into a frenzy. The man behind this freak-out is none other than Christian Camargo, who plays Rudy, the Ice Truck Killer. Christian has been so convincing both as the lover of Dexter's sister Deb and a homicidal maniac who chops women into pieces, he's truly made this season of Dexter what it is—harrowing, intriguing and unforgettable (really, I have flashbacks). So, I got him on the phone to chat for one good reason: I was too chicken to meet in person. Hi. Hi. Don't hurt me. [Laughs.] I get that a lot. Do you really? Yeah. The best one was when I was walking into Rite Aid the other night. This young couple was there buying smokes, and they turned around—and I swear the girl did the biggest double take. She didn't say a word, and she nudged her boyfriend, and he turned around and they both had the same expression. It was freaking hysterical. I wanted to just go, "Boo." Do you get recognized a lot? I do, yeah. Dexter is really popular. I was just asked to do a turn on Studio 60, and when I showed up on the set, everyone wouldn't stop talking about it. It was like being a rock star on that set. Who were you playing? I played a guy playing Keith Richards. Sarah Paulson's character gets a movie outside the show. She plays the girl who married all the Rolling Stones, and I was Keith. It was hysterical. I got to dress up and do the accent. They were all really great there. Did you know when they cast you on Dexter that your character would be the Ice Truck Killer? I knew. But no one else did. It was top-top secret. It was so funny, because the whole cast thought I was a day player. And then all of a sudden, I just kept showing up. They were looking at me like, "What? Why are you here? Who are you?" I kept it to myself. It was fun to play the nice doctor. What can you tell us about what happens with Rudy in the finale? There is a redeeming factor about what happens with Rudy—where the story takes off from here. You get an idea of what Dexter really could be and how close he is to becoming that monster. Are you afraid of being typecast now that you've played such a dark character? Not really. I mean, I did just play Keith Richards. But I also went into an audition recently for a romantic comedy, and they were like, "Sorry, we can't even look at you. You're freaking us out." One final note on Sunday night's Dexter finale: You're gonna die. It's that good. Oh yeah, and another major character is gonna die, too--for reals. When you see it, please come back to this story to comment below and discuss! (You're gonna need a little group therapy.) Previous Story: Giddy Globes News Most Recent Chat 12/11

Dating Nowadays

2006-12-16T20:14:00.000-05:00

Still struggling with the tightness of my knees and calves. I wonder how I look walking since I am relaying more on moving my hips side to side as movemnet then actually picking up my feet a lot to walk. It must be hilarious even though I am not there where I could laugh at myself.

I wish this was a strange occurence but it turns out its normal. I was again on Adam checking messages and seeing if anyone interesting was online of if anyone left me a message. I got a message here and there. Then all of a sudden, I get a message from this guy that had I had told that I was no longer interested in dating and no longer saw him as a prospected dating interesting and and we could continue communicating but just as friends or nothing else.

He got pissed off and told me off (yes I know I can be blunt). He was cursing me, hoping that I would encounter an STD thats uncureable, telling me i was a dirty cum rag rat ass that should get treated like shit by every guy i encounter with. Continuing to tell me that he hopes the guy of my dreams makes him feel the way he felt at that moment and repeatedly kept saying fuck off for belitting my nterest and feelings for you. Then he signed off and that was that I thought. Damn you think someone chews you out in that matter and believes you are the lowest of the lows would leave you alone. Apparently not or I guess karma, life, deity(ies) or all of the above have a sense of humor. He contacts me asking what i am up to?

I tell him that my dirty cum rag rat ass self will be staying home to rest because of the 10k i participated on Thursday. He replied with a witty remark of its great i acknowledge what i am and i just left it at that.

I am not angry just perplexed on why would someone contact me if they thought i was low to hang out. If you think someone is trash and tell them to their face (lol on a screen since this all transpired on his computer and on my cell through AIM) why get yourself all messed with them? Hmm... I guess some people should watch their tongues or better yet just move on, I am not the last 5'6 latin boy with a brain that looks good/cute/handsome (pick whichever you feel is appropriate).

I am adjusting to being single and seriously being single, no dates or prospective dates. Just iming or emailing a guy here and there. Its great, I have more time to think about how to arrange my room, think about what type of desk and bookcase I want since I have never purchased those items and am in need for organization of several objects and life.

I think I am going to clean up my books and stuff from the living room then startup on Audacity of Hope again (great book, must read for Barack Obama supporters (make sure to download his podcasts from Itunes).

Tomorrow to volunteer in Carnival Center for the Performing Arts and maybe get to see parts of the Nutcracker then come back home and relax.

Thats it for now.

2006-12-15T17:09:00.000-05:00

An amazing running experience. I have never challenged myself this hard with running. There were many times when I wanted to give up but then I saw tons of people passing me through and struggling that I couldnt let myself stop.

It started at 8:07pm outside of the Miami Beach Convention Center. I met Pam (coworker) and her son at a water station. I got there just 15 minutes prior to the 8:00pm (which turned out to be for wheelchair participants). My plan: was to get my bag checked, meet up with Pam and really find out how well prepared am I for my half marathon in January. Apparently the times for the bag check 6:30 pm to 10:30 pm was the duration not necessarily the times that you could check in or check out or bags. I got there 15 minutes late and they had finished loading the bags at 7:30pm so I had to carry my bag which had my shirt and jeans. I was going to forego bring the bag but I wanted to try out the bag check so I could change afterwards.

The race starts off, I am feeling confident about placing within my time limit. I get to the first marker it reads 10 minutes (and some seconds). I go by the first stage and its Young MC (not fan so I really dont hear what hes singing so I decide to race off while groupies huddle around the stage). I am a bit wet from a passing drizzle. I reach the water station with such thirst that I just swallow down the first cup. I start to lag a bit. I feel the bag and thank myself for putting the ipod inside. I see the next stage and get pumped up. Only to hear Vanilla Ice cheering the crowd on and someone in his entourage is throwing water bottles for the runners (I think that was a sweet gesture even though Pam had waited for one of the bottles and it turned out to be empty, so who knows). I race through all the way till we reach the board walk area before getting to the beach. My legs are really starting to struggle. I start to walk and jog for a minute a time.
My body is aching and feeling each step. Contemplating whether to just throw away the bag and hope its there when I come back to it but decide to take off my sweater and just readjust the way I am carrying my bag (yes i had a sweater on, it was raining earlier in the day and i hate being cold). Once I finish the pavement section and get to the sand portion of the race, I scream damn it to myself. I thought the sand would be packed and paved and it wouldnt be natural but a nice path to run through. At various points I just decide to walk till I pick up a second wind and use it for a while. I get motivated when I hear this guy motivating this girl to take deep breaths. I decide to take deeper breaths. With each deeper breath I feel a bit more energized. I see the last mile marker for the finish line, I just decide to hell with the feeling of fatigue and give it my all. I finish the race at 53:26 minutes and no sooner then I got there to get my time chip clipped off did the it start to pour non stop. I walked around to notice the booths and decided to pick up some snacks making that my dinner and decided to head out home.

Once I got home, I felt so hyper and willing to exercise lightly but decided to return calls then shower and go to sleep. I am disappointed with my times. I could have done better but I realize the impedient of carrying my bag did to my time. My goal was for 50:00 minutes.

So my times are as follows: 1 mile 10:?? minutes
2 mile 19:04 minutes
3 mile 30:00 minutes
4 mile 42:?? minutes
5 mile 53:26 minutes.

My goal for half marathon is 2 hours and 30 minutes. I hope to go less than this but I want to be realistic and feasible.

Nothing major going on in my life nowadays. Not dating, just going to the gym five days a week (except for this Thursday, lol I want to relax for runs), trying to read Audacity of Hope and just websurfing and enjoying the company of friends.
I still dont have holiday plans, still leaving that open till next week not sure if I want to stay home alone and just chill or if I want to spend it with friends since mom will be out working.

Thats it for now, gotta wrap up at work and head to the gym.

If you want to check out details about it even though results are not posted you can go to Nike Runhit Remix. The 2006 tour was for Chicago, L.A. and Miami (Miami's first year).
