About Me

My photo
I love writing. If you want to know anything else just ask me or else read up! I have two blogs ("A Pen Itching To Bleed Onto Paper" and "The Rebirth of J"). One of my blogs (A Pen...) is updated more frequently than the other. "The Rebirth” is more of a story I am writing with my life whereas "A Pen" would be my random thoughts past, present, and future in this unfolding journey I call life. If this is your first time reading my blog, please visit Post #2 for the month of April 2008 in my "A Pen" blog archives... Thanks!

30 Day Project: Day 25


Day 25: A picture of you last year and how you've changed since then
okay so i couldn't find any pics of me in January 2010 so December 2009 (with my beautiful mommy!) will have to work! I was waaaay different back then. For one thing I have packed on more muscle since then. You can't really tell but i really have,lol. I believe I have matured quite a bit since last year. I trust God more than I did last year. I am way less depressed than I was last year and that is a great thing! I am looking to change my life more than I was last year so I am definitely more focused. I am a completely different person!

30 Day Project: Day 24

Day 24: A picture of something you wish you could change

I wish I could end this atrocious injustice forever. We're talking about 27 million people that are victims of this crime! these innocent victims are sent to various forms of involuntary servitude including agriculture, child soldiers, pornographic industry, sweatshops, house servants, prostitution, etc. It makes me sick to think that people could enslave others. If i could change anything in this world,I would abolish modern day slavery.

30 Day Project: Day 23

Day 23 - A picture of your favorite book.

A Million Miles in A Thousand Years! Best book ever. I pretty much guarantee that you will love this book and it will challenge you to live a better story! It is thoughtful, thought provoking, powerful and well written. When I first started reading it, I couldn't put it down until I finished! It is a MUST read!

30 day Project: Day 22

oops, sorry i didnt have time to post earlier!

Day 22: A picture of something you wish you were better at
I wish i was better at playing instruments!

30 Day Project: Day 21

Day 21: A picture of something you wish you could forget.
I wish i could forget old friendships, the ones that haven't worked out. The ones who have betrayed me, hurt me, and scarred me. Some i have been able to forget, others I still remember. I wish I could just delete all those memories... kind of like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or something. Great movie by the way, you should check it out!

30 Day Project: Day 20

Day 20 - A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel
ANYWHERE that looks like this! anywhere with white sand, light blue water, warm weather and palm trees! This specific place is somewhere in the Caribbean. I could picture myself walking barefoot in the sand, coronas with lime wedges, waves, and paid vacation... Okay now I really want to be there!

30 Day Project: Day 19

Day 19: A picture of a habit you wish you didn't have One thing that I have noticed about myself is that I love to push peoples buttons, make them mad. I've been like that ever since I can remember. I used to think it was funny but now I think it's kind of weird and borderline sinister:( I sort of do it without realizing which is also strange. Anybody have any guesses as to why I do that? Am I just a real life sitcom style antagonist or is it some sort of personality disorder? if you have some knowledge on the subject, please give me a shout! I hate to turn what was supposed to be a fun project into a serious one, but It's my blog and I have the right to do so if I wish, lol.
have a great MLK day, folks!

30 Day Project: Day 18

Day 18: A picture of your favorite placeI guess my favorite place would have to be Chico, CA. I love cities like Monterey, Las Vegas, and San Diego and two of the three I have referred to as my "favorite cities" in the past and they truly are great places to hang out. But Chico holds a special place in my heart and always will. Chico, CA is the place where I went to school, spent great times, suffered through terrible times, met true friends, drank too much, ate some delicious food, explored, swam, jogged,played, worked, etc. I had a blast, it is my hometown. I will never forget that city!

(note to self, visit Chico SOON! )

30 Day Project: Day 17

Day 17: A picture of your biggest insecurityI am SUPER insecure about the future! About what I will do, how much money i will make, where i will live, whether i will be able to support my wife, my kids, etc. I wonder whether my church will prosper,whether i will have money, whether i will ever write a book and if i do whether or not it will sell well... I am insecure about my future!

30 Day Project: Day 16

Day 16 - A picture of someone you've been friends with the longest and still feel connected to.

I'm going to change this one because i feel like it is the exact same thing as Day 2.

Day 16 - A picture of the place where you want to retire someday!
(If you click on it, it looks a lot better)

Monterey, CA! This pic shows most of the city and the part about it that I love the most: the beach. And yet it still doesn't completely do it justice! I love Monterey!

30 Day project: Day 14

Day 14 - A picture of your favorite pastime
This one is more difficult than you might imagine! I don’t have many pastimes, lol. I go out with my friends and watch movies or else I mess around on facebook at home, watch football during football season, or listen to preachings. I guess the one thing I like to do when I do get a chance is go out shooting/ hunting!

To me hunting is relaxing and exciting at the same time. Most of the time is spent walking or driving around for long periods of time usually laughing or joking but when you stumble upon an animal, everything becomes completely silenced. You tread lightly in hopes of not scaring the animal. You act quietly as to not startle your target. You breathe slowly and you take aim. You might be shaking or if you’re me just thinking too much into it but you take a deep breath to calm yourself down and squeeze the trigger… boom! You might hit it, you might not. But for me, that’s not the point! The point is its calm, and fund and at sometimes exhilarating. I love it!

30 Day Project: Day 13

Day 13 - A picture of your favorite band or artist.

Right now, this is the man! His name is Alex Dezen and he is the lead singer of one of the best bands I have ever heard, THE DAMNWELLS! You must understand that after meeting Benjamin Bratt and finding out he was a complete jerk, I was kind of worried to meet this guy. As it turns out he is not only way more talented than I thought (amazing voice in person) he is also a very humble, down to earth guy. This band has the potential to be the very best and I know they will make it far in the business! PLEASE, do yourself a favor and check out this band!
I have included a bonus for you: a video of Alex Dezen performing one of their songs, "come to me." Listen, enjoy!

30 Day Project: Day 12

Day 12 - A picture of something you love.

Pictured above is Asilomar State beach in Monterey, CA. One of my favorite spots in the world. I love the beach and the ocean. I love to hear the crash and splash of the powerful waves. I love the smell of ocean water. I love being overwhelmed with the sounds and sights. I love looking out into the ocean and knowing that God created this masterpiece to be pleasing to my eye, and so I praise him! Few things are more beautiful and powerful than the ocean!
