At Home

Ernest Hemingway, F Scott Fitzgerald, John Steinbeck, T.S> Elliot, and more all of which were members of the Lost Generation, a group of artists who were disenchanted with the way things were at home that they left to find a new better place.

I have lived in Southern Ca for majority of my life, except for my time in the military. Growing up I never quite felt "at home", and to this day I don't find myself "at home". I think the only time I felt at home was the time i spent in Egypt, and Iraq.

Am I just sick of America, and it's sad political streak? I could find such peace in a small vineyard in Provence, or maybe wandering the deserts of Egypt. I find it so sad that I can't feel at peace with myself here, that I have to go out to find peace.

Perhaps I will find it someday.....

Time for a change

Well after spending almost two years at the non profit I'm currently working at, I have decided it is time for me to leave.

I started there as a regular security guard, I needed a job badly and I asked my friend's mom to hook me up, I got the job and before you know it I became their Grievance Coordinator, dealing with all types of complaints from the guests. Shortly after that, I became their Guest Relations Director, running my own department of ten employees. But with all that success I forgot about school and my desire for higher education.

So now I am leaving my job in September and will be attending Fullerton Junior College FULL TIME. It'll be a change, but i think it will be more beneficial for me in the long run. I'll be broke, recycling cans, cutting on costs like no other, except for my internet, and phone.

driiinkin on a friday

Hangin out at my sister's place havin a few jack and cokes. Nothing out of the ordinary except for the fact that i told my self id stop drinkin for a while. Especially since I practically drank all day on wednesday. But none the less, after i got off work, came over to her place, watched American Graffiti which is awesome by the way. And started drinking.

Now she is yelling at me to do shots with her, I DO NOT DO SHOTS, I WILL PUKE!!! Thats the main reason why i never do shots, unless I do something like chocolate cake or kamikaze shots, which aren't too bad. Anyways, we're drinking, talking about ex's and listening to depressing music, like Patsy Cline an stuff like that. THis blog wouldn't be so bad if I had some followers, but since I feel like it's my personal journal, it's all good.

By the way, where did the good times go where you could go cruisin, listen to some tunes, have some drinks with friends, and just rock-n-roll???
