Crashing & Burning Down

Okay, this is a writing from myself and how things are going in the mind and my point of view. Alright, I may be a cool dude and I have a lot of hobbies. I don't be out there having fun like I should be, but something is happening. My mind is playing tricks on me. I was expecting an outcome. Ever since I rearranged my room last summer, I thought it would bring me back to the Summer of 2006 days right after I graduated from high school. So I plan to rearrange my room every two seasons. I am doing this to make my days look descent, even on rainy days (which they are the best). Back in January, my friend would come over and play video games. He would bring his PlayStation 2 and some games. We played video games almost everyday. That's how I prepared my tree of fun. In the middle of February, I bought myself a PlayStation 2 and a video game, that was the first seed of fun to be planted. Weeks later, I bought more games. The following week, I ordered an old PlayStation game from the internet and it was mailed to me on my birthday. I started playing. I walked to the mailbox and when I saw the package, it was the video game I ordered from the internet. So I ran into my room, opened the package, and then I started playing the game. That was the ultimate seed of fun. Weeks later, I ordered another video game. That was three trees of fun. During those times, I had comforting times. I even had the chance to visit my brother and his new home. When we left there, we went out to eat at Ryan's All-You-Can-Eat Restaurant. When I got home, the fun continues. It was like having a good luck charm with you and it brought back good days of the 90's and some new good-looking days. Those fun times I had only lasted for a few months. After all that, I rearranged my room just to bring my old summer days back, but it didn't happen.Anyways, I had Windows Vista for a while. I had it since April 2007. I had got it because I wanted to explore new technology. This is about when good technology goes bad. Almost every time I use Internet Explorer, it goes alright until a freaking box pop up and say "Internet Explorer has stopped working!" This is one of the most annoying features of Windows Vista. I am currently using Mozilla Firefox for substitution. You should use it. I don't know about you, but this is my opinion and most people agree with me. There are more things I hate about Windows Vista; I hate it when the Adobe Flash Player stops working. Yes, this is happening to me on Internet Explorer and I'm not liking it. When you use Mozilla Fox, you're good to go. I can't even do much on Windows Vista. Ever since I arranged my files from my old Windows XP to my Windows Vista, I thought they were going to stay on there. Weeks later, when I click on any of those icons that contains my old files, I CAN'T OPEN THEM! I remember last year when my computer suffered a nasty trojan virus and when we cleaned it all out, it felt like new again, (EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN PARTS), I couldn't access my iTunes and Windows Media Player. So I opened up an additional Windows account for back-up. I should have thought twice before getting a Windows Vista. The reason why I chose Windows Vista back in April 2007, it was because it was new, neat, and the graphics looked kind of sexy and artistic. [I just had to admit that.] When I was 12 years old, my elementary school principal said, "If YOU don't do your job well, you'll get fired."Of course Windows Vista didn't do its job well for me. I hate Windows Vista with a burning, fiery, smoking passion. If Vista was a person and if she works for Microsft, I would walk up to her and say, "Vista, you're fired..." So I had fun with stuff, but when time passed by, the tree of fun I planted became fragile. It stumbled on the edge, it fell, crashed to pieces and burned to ashes. However, I plan to do a rebirth and I hope will last long.

That's it.
God Bless...

Why I Collect Aluminum Cans

I enjoy collecting aluminum cans because it is fun, simple, and easy. Aluminum can collecting is a hobby of mine. It is not just a hobby, it also helps the economy. I started collecting cans when I was a child right after my toddler age. That was the time when I was interested in aluminum cans. Over the years, I collected cans, but failed many times to turn the cans in for the cash. But this time, it is a huge improvement which at least I hope. I've been collecting aluminum cans since January 2008. That was the time I had to start over. I started back collecting aluminum cans doring the Summer of 2007. A few months later, I failed. But this time, my perseverance will make sure I do it right. My timing is making sure I put an end to this procrastination. Even though I started over in January 2008, It will still take me a heck of a long time. Longer than you expect. At least it might, but not that long. I am making progress with then though. During that time I had to start over, I just rinsed the cans out so the insects can be kept away from the cans. I take a beige Rubbermaid garbage can, I place a clear trash bag inside, and then placed the aluminum cans inside. I've been doing well. Three and a half months later, the cans started getting full. A few days later, I realized that it was not enough, so I decided to take every aluminum can and smash each and everyone of them. I crushed them flat with my foot wearing steel toe boots. Some of them or maybe half of them, I placed materials on top of the cans and then stomp down to smash them. Since I don't have an automatic can crusher machine, I simply wear my steel toe boots and when I smash them, I press down on the cans real hard. When I try to smash large beer cans or large juice cans, I use strong force. That was the best idea I ever chose because when you smash your cans until the container of cans gets full, then you are putting weight on the container. Just wait until it gets heavy and take them to the recycling plant and you will receive a large amount of money, I mean LOTS! I bet you will be the happiest person on Earth like a rich and wealthy person. I bet you will probably get that kind of feeling for the feeling you deserve. So place yourself in my shoes and see how I'm doing with these cans. I mostly collect aluminum cans, but I don't just collect cans, I collect any type of aluminum such as aluminum pie pans, aluminum baking deep dish pans, and used aluminum foil. I remember a couple of months back on May 27, 2008 when I was celebrating the anniversary of my graduation. Anyways, during that time, my dad gave me a bag of 60 cans what someone gave to him. So I grabbed the bucket from my backyard and brought it in the hosue. I grabbed the soap and proceeded to the bathroom with the cans and the bucket. Seconds later, I closed the door. I placed the bucket in the tub, filled it up with water, I put a little bit of soap in, and then the cans. I save the aluminum can tabs as well. After I washed all of those cans, I used the bucket for rinsing water. So I began to rinse the cans out. After all that, I shook the excess water out of all the cans, and then I put them back in the bucket and proceeded to the back porch and then I start smashing them. I was already feeling sweat dripping down my face and I was drenched with sweat. It took me several minutes to smash and after I did all that, I placed the cans I smashed into the contianer. Boy, I made myself a slave by working too hard. I took no break, not even five minutes. So I owe it to myself, mainly to God. I actually made myself my own apprentice. I still collect aluminum cans and I am doing quite well and the garbage can with the aluminum cans inside is gaining weight. That means I am putting more effort to it. I will keep working hard and not give up. I will not back down for anyone. I won't back down for you, not even for myself. I will not surrender. I refuse to retire and I will not wimp out. I don't care if strong and tough men with muscles and abs think I'm some wimp. If I was to give up and lose the cans, I lose the money and the effort I put into it. Whenever I see a can on the ground or street, it's finders keepers. I'm going to pick it up when I see it. Anyways, thank you all for reading this blog. I wish you all the best.

Suburban Summer II: Work & Play [part two]

Okay, this is the second part of the second chapter of the Suburban Summer blog. I record everything I see. On June 28th, 2008, another live party took place on the road I live on in my neighborhood. It happened at night. I assume this is a rare nocturnal event. During the daytime, I was on my computer doing things. During the afternoon, I hung around the house and I was playing my PlayStation 2 almost all day. I was drinking plenty of water to quench my thirst. I was preparing a few cans to recycle. Later then, I grab the bug spray to kill a few ants. I was listening to some awesome music earlier then. I downloaded the whole album. A few hours later, I was eating some snacks. Later on, I went on my back porch to guard my aluminum cans to see how much weight I am putting on the can. I always crush the aluminum cans before I place them in the can. But when nighttime occured, the road was already filled with vehicles and then another live party. I went outside and finally put those aluminum scrap metal with the other ones. The same time, I was feeding my dog and my puppy. I was outside and I saw the scene. I saw colered lights and the people there. I went in the bathroom and opened the window and then listen to the music. I heard a live disc jockey speaking while playing the music. I stayed in there for minutes. It was like another dimension of Sirius Satellite Radio and XM Satellite Radio by sitting next to my window. I remember back the 1990's, I went to a party with my family, I played with some other children and I heard a disc jockey playing music. If you were in my shoes, you would know. Anyways, back on the topic. Later then, I poured some black cherry soda beverage in my blue water bottle to sip on. I went backm in the bathroom to open the window to hear more of it. After hours, it went back to a quiet night and all the vehicles were gone. The atmosphere was clean and the coast was clear. Everything back back to normal. My dogs were barking with the other ones, and the my dogs went to sleep. So did I. When typing this blog, I record everything what happened in my sight. You can count on the music media to cover up for you. I have my own media out. It's called "The Life Planner" and I will not cover up for you. Thank you fpr reading this blog. Good Night.

Be God's.

Suburban Summer II: Work & Play

Alright, this is the second chapter of this blog here. The same thing happened last year. On June 20, 2008, another live party took place at two houses away from mine in my neighborhood. I was working for my neighbor for a few hours. I got paid and then I watered the rest of the plants. My neighbor as leaving again. As I was watering the plants in the front yard, the sun began to set. As the sun was setting, many vehicles were filling the street and the people were walking up the street. I was still watering the plants for my neighbor and five minutes later, I smelled a barbeque. It was far, but not that far. I have good nostrils when I smell something. They do act up sometimes. When I got finished with my work, I went home. I recycled five cans to put with my aluminum can collection. And once again, I heard music and a live disc jockey. I saw colored lights again. Whe I was putting the aluminum cans away for the collection on my back porch, I took a peek at the scene. I walked outside down the stairs from my back porch and walked to get a closer look while standing in my yard. If I had a pair of binoculars, maybe I could view the scene up close. Maybe I would be watching the scene on satellite television. In my last chapter, I mentioned about the Sirius Satellite Radio in another dimension by sitting next to your window or an open door. Even when you're outside in your garden. Maybe it could be another dimension of satellite television. I remember when I was a teenager, I went on my front porch and in my driveway to listen to the music that was playing by the disc jockey at the party that happened at nighttime. I assume that this is a rare personal nocturnal event almost every summer. Maybe soon, I will see it through, seek the truth, and see what is really happening. Next day in the afternoon when I was walking to my grandparents' house to deposit ten dollars in my life savings, I picked up a few aluminum cans off the street from the party scene to put with my collection. I picked them up as I was walking the road I live on. Thank you for listening to me and I wish you all Peace and Tranquility. You have my word.

Be God's.

A Letter To My Longtime Friends III: Graduation Anniversary

Dear Longtime Friends,

This is your friend Victor who graduated from high school back in May 27, 2006. This is the third chapter if my letter to my former high school friends. The reason why I am writing to you is that I want to remember our graduation day back then. Do you guys remember that time when we were gathered together for a farewell? I sure do. I agree that was one of the best times of our lives. It was a gratifying day and I was extremely proud. We graduated at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. Bishop Eddie Long was a nice guy. The atmosphere was nice inside, even when we did graduation practice before the day of our graduation. I know what you're wondering; "What am I currently doing with my life?" Well, the answer to your question is, "I am currently trying to become a book writer for the future and I am still busy with it. I am working on a book at a computer and I am writing one by hand. It might take longer than you expect, but you guys should keep in touch with me." Hey guess what. Last month, my brother went to pick up the high school diplomas because I was supposed to pick them up right on the week after graduation, but someone forgot to take me. I had to keep my parents up with it so they wouldn't forget. In August 2006, I typed up a respectfully friendly letter I wrote to the school. I waited and waited day after day for a response, but I didn't receive any type of response regarding to my high school diploma. I kept talking about life with my family by telephone and internet (e-mailing). In May 2007, my records came in the mail, but it had nothing to do with the diploma. Weeks before that, I went on the internet to search for the phone number to contact the school. I was told that I have to order them. ORDER THEM?! When it was time for the kids to go back to school in August 2007, my sister goes to school so I was thinking about having her to get the high school diplomas for me, but my brain and my heart was having an argument with each other LOL. My brain said it was necessary, but my heart said I need to handle it myself because it was my business. I kept talking about it every once in a while. Alright, when a year passed by, when my brother came to visit, he had showed me the diplomas. He called me to the car to show them to me. I was working for my neighbor across the street. Once I saw them, I felt rejuvenated. So I decided to keep focusing on my future plans. As always: Remember to stay strong, stay on top of your game everyday and like I said in my first chapter, Don't back down for anyone! Keep living for our Lord Jesus Christ!
Everybody Take Care Now,Victor

P.S. I wish everyone good luck here in America. Continue to live right and eventually, God will bless. All of the Males and the Females! 2006 FOREVER!!!
***A CLASS TO REMEMBER***

New Age, New Hope

What’s up everyone? I haven’t typed a blog in a while. Just recently last week on Saturday, I celecrated my twenty-first birthday. Now I am facing new hopes and other stuff that God had ahead for me. I am truly thankful for all the blessings that He brought upon me during the past years. I am not going to give up on life. I will continue to follow God and obey His laws. A few days ago, I went to the store. I told the store clerk that I am twenty-one. And he said that I am officially legal. What does the ages 18 and 21 have in common? Alright now, just because I am twenty-one doesn’t mean I should give up on video games. In fact, I bought a PlayStation 2 in February. "Puzzle Quest" is one of my favorite games on PlayStation 2. Days ago, I bought more games. I’m still on my ventures on collecting pennies and loose chage and I am still busy typing my book. Yes it will take longer than you expext, but not that long though. However, I still do think about the pastimes of what I been through after all these years. I think about the 90’s Pop Culture and my High School Times. Those are my missed memories. I began to ask this question in my head to myself, "Hey Vic, why do you cope with the past so much? Are you some kind of a pastime junkie or something?" And then I thought, "You can say that. It’s my anti-drug. It’s my motivation for my future." It’s just like when I look in my high school yearbook to reminisce. Speaking of pastimes, something that hit me across my mind. I was thinking about buying an old PlayStation game to play on my PlayStation 2 console. I was planning to by "Spyro the Dragon" from Amazon.com. I just used a gift card and used some of the money and bought the game online from Amazon.com. After I waited some days and guess what, right on my birthday, the video game was shipped to me in the mail. So I opened the mail and started playing the game. I haven’t played that game in a long time. I’m still moving on though. I was getting cheat codes and strategy guides to help get me through the whole thing. We know in video games, they only give you a few lives to live while playing your game and when you lose all, the game is over. I sought for strategy guides for 99 lives. A few days ago, I was playing to beat the whole game and all of the sudden, my brother accidentally unplugged the cord with his ankle. Boy, I was part angry at that time. So I started over. A couple of days ago, I stayed up all night to play the game to win it. until morning came. My sister was getting ready for school. I said to myself, "The only I can get through the whole thing is to win it. I am still on the loot for victory. If I beat "Spyro the Dragon", victory will be mine! "I was almost to the final level to confront Gnasty Gnorc, I paused the game to take care of some things. When I got back, guess what, I accidentally unplugged the cord. I was like, "Oh RATS! Now I have to start ALL OVER AGAIN!" When my friend came over, we played another game. When I finally got my time back at night, I start playing again to earn my victory. I stayed up all night to play it. And once again, I used cheat codes and strategy guides to get 99 lives. When I was playing "Spyro the Dragon", I went to complete each land. I went through the Artisan home, Peace Keepers World, Magic Crafter World, Beast Makers World, Dream Weavers World, and all of the lands in the dragon kingdom. I released the dragons, reclaimed and collected every last treasuse, and I recover those dragon eggs from those pesky blue thieves. Oh yeah, I had to toast those enemies to collect the treasuse too. Treasuse chests were there too. And there I was in Gnasty’s World. I had to toast every enemy, collect treasuse, and release some more dragons. After I done all that, there I am fighting the last boss which is Gnasty Gnorc. He runs like a chicken. After I defeated him, I had to pick up more treasuse and that’s it. I’m still looking forward to buy other games adn most important, worry about my future. I still miss my good friends I haven’t seen in a long time. I hope I get to see them as soon as possible (ASAP). Anyways, thanks for reading this blog. Good night.

Peace, Tranquility, and Serenity,
Your brother,

-Vic

We Have Only Just Begun! 2008 Is Here & Welcome!

Thank GOD it's a brand new year. 2008 has officially begun underway. Now we are moving on, placing 2007 in the past and focusing on our futures. I still have plans. I hope that God will keep walking with us forever until the end of time. We are still walking on the path to build God's kingdom. I hope this year will carry out peace and tranquility. We all have the gift from God. Peace is what we expect from 2008. I hope this year will be better than 2007, and so on and so far. I truly thank the Lord for all of his blessings He brought upon us throughout the year 2007. For those who made resolutions for planning to make them, please make them wisely, because a New Years' Resolution is normally a solemn promise that you are making a vow or an oath to your life. However, I still do make future plans, but I carefully choose the right plan. Remember, "You can do anything if you set your mind to it." When New Years' came in, I heard gunshots, which is the signal of "Happy New Year". I think it is kind of exciting. Just like when people use 4th of July. I wish everyone here on God's land a Happy New Year. On Christmas Eve, I had a talk with a friend on the phone, we were talking about the true meanings of Life. And by the way, I am still working on my book for my future. I hope it gets published so every child, every teenager, and every adult across the country and around the globe to read it. I am encouraging people to love each other, turn the other cheek because it is time to put the spirit of Hate behind us. Let's join God's team and win for Peace and Justice! Let's beat down the devil, knock the devil to the floor. I can even defeat the devil with a stroke of a pen. If you want to win, join God's team and win.

I would like to dedicate this blog to my true friends and all of the people out there. By the way, R.I.P. to Pimp C. In December, we lost a great hip-hop legend. I don't think God want us to worry why Pimp C is gone, I think God want us to worry why We're here. I also want to dedicate this blog to my longtime friends that I haven't seen in whiles. I wish you all the best in life and all that you do.

We demand Peace, Justice, Unity, and Liberty!Just like Congressman Ron Paul stands for. Ron Paul speaks the TRUTH!

Thank You All For Hearing Me Out!
God Bless One And All!
Your Brother in Christ!!!
