Peace Out 2010 – What’s Good 2011?

First and foremost, Happy New Year Everyone.

I’m fortunate for many things in my life, mainly that most of the people that I know in my life are alive, which that in itself is a blessing.  I’m thankful that I myself am alive.  There are many things to complain about, but being alive alone (to me) is reason enough to remain hopeful when there is no other rational to remain/to be hopeful.

Do I have any New Year Resolutions?  Nah, I’m just carrying over goals that I’ve had since forever and taking the beginning of this New Year to re-evaluate what I want to do in life and how I should go about it.  I believe that if I think about it like this I’ll have a better chance at being successful at what I want to achieve instead of forgetting my New Year resolutions by the end of March.

The past couple of days I’ve been back in Cali, and it’s been pretty damn good.  Chillin with homies, getting things done, and soon I’ll be reunited with homies I haven’t seen in months, so I’m excited for that as well.  There’s one person that’s been making me extremely happy as well; not once have I been stressed around this person and that’s a rarity nowadays.  I still have many things to work on (i.e. getting my car fixed, saving money for study abroad, getting my financial situation straight, etc.), but being stress free helps me think much more effectively.

Today I worked out in the gym after a good while and I’m extremely excited to go everyday.  Getting in shape is fun, but running is the only thing where the difficulty of it deters me away from the numerous benefits it will give me.  But, I refuse to be a bitch to anyone or anything, so I’m going to run everyday to the point of me enjoying it or developing the stamina to tolerate it enough to make it easier.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had a couple of good runs, it just sucks haha.  Also, I’ll be looking for more alternative ways to do cardio instead of just running, things that are effective but fun.  And Soka’s personal trainer is gonna get tired of seeing my face these next couple of months lol.

The mouth is finally in the last stages of being healed, but sadly that means no more Oxycontin for me.  It’s all good though, I’d gladly give up that medicine for a normal mouth again.  As a matter of fact, I just took my last two pills a little while ago and as a result I feel a good nap coming on soon.  I still can’t chew normally, but I don’t have to worry about infections or food being caught in the holes, so that’s good.  But when I’m all healed up, I can play my sax and work out harder, so i’m lookin forward to that.

So yeah, basically life is…what it is I guess.  Good-ish, haha.  Life has it’s ups and downs, I’m just doing my best to ride the waves without drowning when the tides change.  There is one goal that I’m putting my everything towards, so please wish me luck in this endeavor.  Also, I’ll be changing up the theme and re-arranging some things on here so look out for it.  I just realized that I over-use the word so…so yeah, I’ll work on that too haha.

I’m tired and kickin it with homies, so this is all for now.  Everyone, if you have any goals/resolutions, do your best to actually succeed in obtaining them.

Till next blog, Peace N Be Easy
