Real Talks Of The Moment
I know that God has a plan for me. Whether I fail at whatever I'm doing now, I know he;s just preparing me to be able to succeed later on in whatever I do. I'm slowly but surely learning to give God everything, all of me...to really let him take control of the wheel and just sit back and enjoy the ride. Too many times, we try to take control or want some say in our lives. God has everything planned, he sees the whole blueprint from what's going to happen to us tomorrow, to what's going to happen to us a year from now. We can only see what's in front of us. I really need to learn to not doubt God, but embrace that, everything in my life happens for a reason. When there's good, there's also bad...but God will never put you in a situation that will overwhelm you. He's constantly testing you and throwing challenges at you because he knows you're capable or conquering it and he wants to see you rise to the occasion. Whenever God puts you in a situation, he'll ALWAYS provide a way out. I pray that God will give me strength, courage and guidance and I really let him lead my life and embrace everything ltitle detail that happens in my life and let him lead the way...my life is already written, it's just up to me to walk the road.

Today....
I know there weren't that many posts...but I was out and about today, told y'all Christmas/New Years time gets real busy, sorry. Today was boxing day...got up around 12 ish...went with my friend to fairview at like 3 ish, then went to markville, came home around 6 ish, showered then went to friend's house for dinner at 7...it was mad fun, church people, friends, pastors, all in all a good night. New Years in 5 days....damn, that's crazy....sidenote: USA is less than 80 hits away from 10,000....damn....y'all are crazy....I love y'all...shoutouts to all my American visitors. Thanks.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Oh whoops...am I late? LOL sorry...only by like 40 something minutes...been literally out all day, just came home and finally got a chance to chill. Woke up, church in the morning, had to dress up and bring a duffel bag cuz my xbox was in there. After church, headed to my friends to game and watch basketball. It was sick, only ended up watching 2/5 games, but they were the most exciting of the 5...had nuff fun, gamed liek mad...lots of memories right there...a Christmas to remember. Didn't get to chill much with my rents cuz they're really busy with church as of late, cuz they have to practise and perform cuz they're in the choir....got home literally like an hour ago and just finished showering...man I'm pooped. It's boxing day right now....people are probs already at stores lining up for some deals. Real talks the deals are overhyped, it's not thaaaat great, not worth standing overnight in the cold at least...only if you buy things worth a lot like TV's is it considered a deal...but my friend might wanna go shopping tomorrow and asked me, so I might tag along, then dinner tom night as well...really busy lately, sorry no posts today, my bad. Merry Christmas again, hope you had an amazing day and remember it's not what you get, what you do, where you are...but who you're with.

Today....
Is the eve of Christmas, woah der...Christmas is an less than 2 hours, that's crazy. I dunno, it just doesn't feel like Christmas this year...or at least it doesn't feel hyped. Is it really because there's no snow? It has to be something else...and then a new year in 7 days....damn....that's crazy. I dunno, it just doesn't feel like it lol. Anyways, today was a loaft day...woke up, loafted in bed for like 2 hours before finally getting up. Friend came over and foooooooded him bad in 2k...chilling till now. Tomorrow is Christmas, heading over to friend's house to watch the season openers of the NBA. Nothing planned at home cuz rents are really busy at church and gotta sing in the choir...so yeah just chilling with friends, def gonna be a busy week leading back to school...chilling here and there, going out here and there. But def, as usual...blogging like a beast, stay tuned.
From Me To You....
I just wanted you to know, that ever since this afternoon, you've been all I've been able to think about...not in that way, but you know what I mean. I'd never wanna hurt somebody I care so much about, I just wish you'd understand that...I'm sorry.

RT - Closer To My Dreams
Sorry for the over promotion lol, I'm not tryna be a rapper, but I just want y'all to hear this...it's words of wisdom, trust...not just random words said really fast, I promise...really pay attention to my lyrics.
From Me To You....
This is from me to you. Whether you wanna talk to me or not, I'll still talk...you can listen, if you want. Whether you read this or not...I'll never know. When I write things on this blog, I don't expect everybody to read it, it often slips my mind how many people really do read my blog and take time to scroll through posts. When I wrote that post, it was a heat of the moment thing, I was feeling moody, it felt like deja vu and I was gonna go through all this ish again. So wrote what I wrote, with the thought that no one was gonna read it. I was venting...you know how people write letters they never intend to send, and they don't really mean what they say, they're just so wrapped up in the moment they need to express themselves and the minute they're finished, they're all better. That was me...but again, I'm not making any excuses...what I did was stupid, jerk-like, a dick move. I never meant any of the things I said, that thought only flashed before my eyes for a split second and was gone the next. I would never hurt someone I care about, and I would never ever hurt someone I care about as much as you. Whether, these words ever get to you, I'll never know, but I'm sorry, it was a mistake. You literally mean so much to me, which is why I never view you as a burden, why I never view you as using me. Why I love texting you every minute of every day...and why I love seeing you. I'm only writing all of this here on this blog because...well, you won't talk to me. And I hate when people say I'm hiding or talking ish behind peoples backs...it's a blog...it's like a diary for somebody...I'm just talking to myself. But anyways...I never ever meant to hurt you but I know I did, I never meant those words but I know you took them seriously. I care about you a great deal and as we've gotten closer throughout this year, you've become a more and more important part of my life and a part of me is selfish and wants to keep you to myself, but I know I can't. i'm not trying to be your new best friend, I'm not trying to be your boyfriend, I'm not trying to replace anybody...I'm just trying to be somebody you trust, feel comfortable with, someone you can laugh with, cry with, talk to...someone who'll be there for you. I don't have very many close close close friends I can tell things to and share my world with. In such a short amount of time, you became one of those people, I really do enjoy talking to you, you're fun to talk to, you're down to earth and a cool girl. What I'm trying to say is, I would never intentionally hurt you. After I put my phone down, I reread our conversation a few more times, sat in front of my computer...and all I could think about was you, not in that way...you know what I'm talking about. I felt bad...that I hurt you, that you were sad in the first place, that I was adding to all the stresses you already have in your life. I took a walk, just to think things out. I'm sorry...I hate the fact you always feel like you're being a burden to me, and you always hold back cuz you don't wanna use me....those thoughts never cross my mind...I want to be there for you, I want to lift your burdens for you, but sometimes I feel like you won't let me, because you're so stubborn you'd rather go through this alone when people are willing to help you. It's like when you've fallen to the ground and you'd rather get up by yourself when so many people are offering their hands to help pick you up. Which is why missioning to Sauga was no big deal for me, it was fun and believe me when I say I'm going to do it again...it wasn't a hassle...I was nervous, I was scared, but in my head, I was like...man it's going to be so worth it because I know she's going to be so happy that I came to surprise her. I dunno man....and I know what I did was dumb...and caused you to build more walls on top of the ones you probs already had with me...and I'm sorry....I don't care how scared or hesitant you are...you told me not to break down the walls cuz you'd be more uncomfortable and I'll respect your wishes. But know I'm still here for you whenever you're ready. I'll be right here on the other side of the wall, waiting for you...and whenever you feel ready...to let me into your life again...I'll still be here, on the other side of the wall...all you have to do is let your guard down. I promise I'll never let you down or make you sad....as cliche as that sounds, I know you're scared of those words because I know in your head...you're already picturing me hurting you again....but I'm sorry...all you can do is trust me, please. I'm sorry....I don't know how many times I can say it or what I can do...it was a mistake, I know you want your space...I'm sorry.

Uncle Kracker - Smile
"You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed, sing like a bird, dizzy in my head. Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday nigh. You make me dance like a food, forget how to breath, shine like gold, buzz like a bee. Just the thought of you can drive me wild."

HERE IT IS GUYS!!! I told you I owed you for December 15th...in honour of 2 years of existence..I recorded a lil somethin somethin for y'all. I've had this for over a year, actually wrote this before I wrote "Best You Never Heard", but didn't wanna record it, but ended up doing so...lol. Did this all in one take...with a few edits here and there, major shoutouts to Kevin Heung for helping me record, mix, produce, finish...all that good stuff, I appreciate it so much, anyways...here you go.
Real Talks Of The Moment
I had this conversation with a friend once who was going through a tough time and this person told me...well asked me..."don't you feel like this person only needs you when they have a problem, and when they don't you're kinda not as important." I'm kinda paraphrasing so I shouldn't have put quotations, but you get the gist. Basically my friend was like, I feel this person only needed me when they were in trouble or had problems and I'm a chill person and I wanted to just chill but that person only needed m when they were in need. And as the time passes and me and the person he was talking about...our conversations have gotten less interesting, shorter and just...blah really...the words he asked me replay in my head over and over again..."doesn't it feel like this person only talks to you when they have a problem or something." The more time that passes, the more the person's words hit home and the more they begin to sink in and the more I begin to believe it...I dunno man, I'm tryna convince myself everything is all good and just play it off and be cool. I'm just tryna enjoy my Christmas break....damn.

Went, it wasn't bad, the testimonies were nice...saw my ex...didn't say hi...she walked past me, so I thought, went behind my and hugged me...lol not that I don't like her, she's a cool girl and I care for her but eh...lol...but yeah we had a good talk, caught up and ish...oh yeah, forgot to tell you she wrote me a letter lol, haven't received it yet though, btu she mailed it.

50,000 HITS
Wow, um...I'm still taking in the fact that 2 days ago was the 2nd anniversary of this blog and now...50k hits. I know I always talk about a milli...and I do really hope that one day I do reach that...sooner than later (fingers crossed), but uh...halfway to 100k...that's a big accomplishment. I always say I'm not a celebrity, I don't have a million followers on twitter (@RTtheRealest btw), I don't average tens of thousands of hits per day...I'm your regular 19 year old kid, struggling in school...tryna make a living for when I get older. So 50k in 2 years...especially all the ups and downs and me only taking in seriously just this year...is a big deal for me. Especially with very little to no support from the beginning, the fact that I stuck to this...believe me when I say this blog has been through nuff controversies, with haters and even my friends. But through it all...we're still here. 3 layout changes later, 109 countries later, 2 years later, 1800 posts later, 50,000 hits later...we're still here damn...this is all just surreal to me you know. But at the same time, I'm not letting myself get caught up in the hype and the fame or whatever...I'm still grinding...I'm not swimming in money...I do this...for me, for y'all...from the heart...not from the pockets...those ads mean nothing to me, I hardly get anything off those and I can care less. You...you reading all these things...means a lot to me...I feel connected to every one of my visitors who takes the time to read my posts...especially the ones that really come from the heart. Damn man...what can I say besides that I'm gonna continue doing this...cuz this is my life, my soul, my heart...and I'm so grateful to have all of you with me each step of the way...thank you...50,000 hits down, here's to the next 50,000 hits and to a bright 2012 for this blog. LET'S GET IT!!!

From The Heart: Thank You
Thank you...you, the reader. Thank you, you....the visitor, skimming through this post looking for an interesting video to watch. Thank you in general. Thank you to the people who have been on this blog since day 1, who've been with me through the struggles of trying to get this blog out there. Thank you to all my international visitors...y'all are crazy lol. Visiting some random blog everyday of some weird 19 year old kid from Canada hahaha. I appreciate y'all. I'm just a simple, 19 year old kid....2nd year of university living in Canada. I don't have some big dreams to be some sort of celebrity nah...that's not the point of this...I'm not too sure what the point of this is...I just kinda wrote how I felt...and poeple liked it....and they kept coming back. This blog has been through a lot in 2 years. I remember first creating it....lol even my friends didn't believe in me..hahaha no grudge bros. But I didn't even believe in myself...this was just a fad, something I created because one of my friends created one. He stopped his after a few months...but I kept going...yeah it was scarce...posting here and there whenever I felt like or remembered....but I kept going. I still remember taking this blog down for a few months to figure things out in my life. When I had come back, something inside of me....found this interesting and useful...and I started blogging more and more...and when I had noticed the little bit of attention it was receiving...I became more serious about blogging and started to do it once per day....slowly increasing it to multiple posts per day. It's safe to say that today....presently, this blog is really like a part-time job for me, if not full-time cuz I'm doing it everyday lol. I do this now for so many reasons beyond just me. Yeah expressing myself is one of the main reasons. But there's so many other reasons now, to reach out to my visitors, inspire, motivate, make laugh....y'all are with me now. I'm not saying I have this mass following...but like, damn...whenever I see countries from around the world visit my blog, I'm like...how'd y'all find me lol. But anyways...2 years...2 years...this is for all the people who doubted me, who never believed me and still don't....who still think I'm wasting my time and that this blog will never really get noticed...cheers to y'all. This is for those people who've supported me through it all and still continue to support me and interrogate me everyday if I don't post...LOL. This blog has become bigger than me, bigger than I have ever imagined, damn. Sometimes, I find it hard to believe this is all real...all the stats, numbers, visitors, countries...damn.
Today....
MARKS 2 YEARS OF THIS BLOG'S EXISTENCE.............PAUSE FOR A MINUTE..........LET ME JUST APPRECIATE THIS MOMENT FOR A SECOND....

What can I say...2 years of hard work, 2 years of dedication, 2 years of determination, perseverance....all that. Through school, work, beef, drama, all that ish...one thing that stayed constant was this blog...this was my home, my hiding place, my comfort, my shelter, my happy place. This is a place I could be myself, I felt like I could say whatever I want cuz initially I'd be talking to myself, but as this blog grew...I began to talking to you...yeah you, the reader...reading this post right now....this is just crazy...but I'm appreciative, I'm humble...I know this is not a lot...I'm not going to start slacking off now...I'm going to give you more than ever in hopes this blog will continue to grow and blow up. Thank you for all of you who stuck with me this far. I love you.

Today....
Well let me start with yesterday...I had an exam today at 9 am. My friend said he would drive me to York for our exam...at like 11 at night, he told me he couldn't drive me home cuz he had work...I was obv cheesed at him asking if he could try to drive me or at last drop me off somewhere where I can bus home, he said he couldn't cuz he worked in the opposite direction. Now I was mad cheesed...I shouldn't have been cuz he had work...a legit reason, but it's the fact that he told me so late in the night that I had to try to find a ride that late when people are sleeping as well. VIVA is on streak so counted that out...my friend who use to work for GO told me my bus didn't run....so I HAD to get a ride from somebody...TTC would be 3 buses and too much of a mission and me being bad with directions he said I'd prob get lost. So late at night, I texted me one friend who had the same examw ith me hoping he could drive me. Next day, he replies saying he can't cuz he's going to a family party right after and that's the opposite direction, alright that's cool, I understand. So my friend come to pick me up...the one who can't drive me home and tells me last minute. Throughout the whole car ride I'm texting people like mad trying to find a ride....this guy is like on my tail saying c'mon man it's not that hard....SON yeah it is when you do t last minute....texting mad people. There was this one kid who felt bad but was like he couldn't cuz he bussed as well. Texted AT LEAST 10 people...finally I saw my one friend tweet that he had an exam and was at school, so I texted him and turns out he was in the same room as me but different exam, so he was able to drive me home. After the exam, the dude who drove me TO york was like I finished early, I can drive you home you want me to? I said nah it's cool cuz I'll just go with my friend since it's a hassle for you since you have work as well...this kid says oh its cool, I'm going home anyways...it's too early or work....YOU MOTHER EFFING DOUCHE....I was like nah it's cool...when I really wanted to say BUN YOU....man...what a dick. Anyways...that was my day...exam was good, but now gotta start studying for my exam on Monday, then last one on Thursday. I'M SORRY I won't be able to produce something special for DECEMBER 15th the 2nd anniversary of the blog...not on that day at least. Everyone's just busy with finals and studying and me too...so I don't have time to do anything and my friends don't have time to help me with anything. But I'm still trying to think of doing something special hopefully, but it'll be hard since I gotta study for finals on Monday AND Thursday...but I'm a try cuz I love y'all so much. But yeah...tune in for MAJOR MAKOEOVER of this blog...another year of existence and a new year around the corner definitely calls for chance. 2ND ANNIVERSARY OF THE BLOG coming up in 5 days....CHRISTMAS in 15 days....A NEW YEAR in 21 days....damn man...everything's moving so fast haha....but def stick with me cuz I'm finished exams on the 15th and will def me back to posting like a beast. As usual I love y'all....follow me on Twitter @RTtheRealest I tweet everyday like a beast, so if you wanna know what I'm up too...go head and follow me...I tweet to express, inspire and motivate. Thanks, love y'all.

When we doubt God, or question why he does things, we often act like we understand it. But God's level of thinking, God's love...is far beyond ours and far beyond anything we can understand or imagine. So when we question God or doubt God and ask why does he do these things...God doesn't make mistakes, he's perfect in every way...maybe YOU are the one that's flawed in your way of thinking or whatever it is. POWERFUL.

Today....
Was a LONG day....started off with me about to leave home, realized I forgot to print my assignement for my gym class due today, was nervous...had a test first thing in the morning...eyes were really hurting, did well on the test though. Went to my gym class, told the instructor and she was cool, said I could email it to her. Went to my next class, eyes were really starting to hurt now...could barely keep then open, mad tired...guess I wasn't getting enough sleep. After that class, hit the library...studied for my test at 7...that's when my eyes were dying...took a nap for 20 min, studied for a good while, napped for a bit, repeat...had dinner with my friend, studied some more in class before it started, eyes were suuuper dying, could barely keep them open...squinted the whole exam...finally finished, felt so good. No more school until midterms...I have class, but there's no real need to go since finals are near and I need to study anyways...wish me luck. :) Sorry for no posts...today was really a busy day...I skipped my last lab with my cute TA Karissa, I stopped by and said sorry lol, not sure why...guess it was cuz she was cute, she was kinda cheesed but was like, you can make it up to me somehow ;)....lOOOOOOL she literally gave me that kinda face....no comment...anyways...hahaha,...goodnight :)

From Me To You....
This doesn't go out to anyone in particular, but people in general, maybe a few people are in mind, but nonetheless. It irks me, when I care about someone and I try to talk to them, comfort them, see how things are going or see what's wrong and they don't open up to me. Obviously this is in the context that we're close friends. I dunno...lately I have close friends who I'm not as close with anymore, but I do my best to try you know...I do my best to talk to the person or check up on them, but it's like whenever I go hey what's up and they're like uh I'm going through ish or I'm upset. I'm like what's wrong...and they go a lot of things, or don't worry...and when I ask like a lot of things such as or what kinda things, they're like uh...just things...or they give you really general answers. Like...I know we're not as close as we were before....but at least I'm making an effort to be close again, but if that's all you're going to give me, then I really have the mindset to wanna stop trying. Some people might argue...well oh you're giving up too easily...before you would keep going until I finally told you...like...this isn't a game...I'm literally concerned and care for you....I wanna know what's up so I can help you...if you give me lame answers or you're like a lot of things...how am I suppose to answer or respond to that...I'm not gonna force you to talk to me, if you wanna open up to me, do it...I dunno, it really irks me when I tell my friends about these people and I'm like, I just don't feel the effort or that they care or that they're trying. But then they'd tell me ohhhh that person does care, they told me themselves, they always have fun around you, etc, etc....like....thanks for telling me but...why can't that person tell me themselves...I dunno man...I'm glad I'm not letting these things really bother me as of late...I've been too caught up with school and jus trying to get by...pray for me man...school's really all up in my grill as of late and I'm scared...I pray and I trust God has a plan for me...pass or fail...whatever happens happens, God has a plan for me.

I'm just excited to watch some BASKETBALL....I miss Lebron's chasedowns...no one is safe...Allen Iverson, D Rose, D Wade....damn....
Today....
is a good day...a loaft day nonetheless so far, but a good day...woke up to mass texts and tweets telling me THE NBA IS BACK....THE LOCKOUT IS OVER...FINALLY. Get to see what Miami is really made of.See if Dallas can repeat. See if young guns like OKC and Chi-City can step up and vets like Spurs, Lakers and Celtics and remain at the top. I;m excited to see the rookies...see if Blake can be a beast again, see if D Rose can take MVP again...see if Kobe still has it, if KD can cement himself as the NBA's best player....or will Lebron have something to say about that...will Dwight 4 peat the defense award...will him and CP3 stay in ther respective teams? How will the Raptors do? What about Cleveland who recently drafted Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson...what about Ricky Rubio's debut....so many questions...so much anticipation and excitement..damn. Anyways back to today...yeah woke up at like 1...did laundry, studied, loafted, gonna study more today....AND TOMORROW...2 tests on monday :( wish me luck, pray for me.

I love the fact that Kevin Durant is just non stop balling anywhere and everywhere. He's really putting his foot down and becoming the face of the NBA. He's solidified himself as a top3 player and for good reason...dude is talented. Love the J. Cole cameo as well.

They did, but not my size, so the girl asked if I needed help, I asked her if they had my size, she said no, but that I could order it and another Roots would ship it to my house, free shipping....saaaaaaay woord...so I got them shipping tomorrow I believe.

Today....
Was actually a reeeally long day for me, wasn't feeling it at all. Went to bed at 12, but slept at like 1:30 woke up at 6:30. Smaaashed my anatomy lab test at 8:30, then 2 more classes after. And had an hour break, usually I chill with my friends on break, but none of them were here and I didn't wanna eat by myself so I got food and went to my friend's class, he's in the class I have after so it was convenient anyways. He was paying attention, though he was sitting at the back...LOL, so I met this girl (sorta) who was sitting beside me, I had a class with her before and I recognized her. But I didn't say anything, she was like hey you're in my class right, and I'm like yeah, talked about, small details, name, year, major, etc....then we started talking randomly and ish and she was a cool girl, a cute girl as well :) Exchanged numbers and I hope to see her around...well I actually will see her around since I have class with her lOL. But anyways, still on my break in that class, a few rows down, I saw these 2 guys and a girl watching porn....no comment....legit...no joke....no comment, oh man. Then there was this dude in front of us who was annoyed cuz me and my friend were talking, looks back and grills us...I'm like are you serious...you're sitting at the back of the class and you're on facebook...you're not paying attention son, then he turned back around...LOOOL. But yeah, by then my eyes were really hurting, I think it's cuz I didn't get enough sleep....but like I could barely open them...so I just wanted to go home....came home, took a shower, napped for like 3 hours...one of my longest ever, felt so relaxed but also super tired still...and now I'm here...chilling.

I don't normally do these shoutouts so specifically, but uh...Happy Birthday Sam...I know you'll read this. It's been a long time since I've seen you and today, seeing your face...it really brightened my day, put a smile on my face and warmed my heart. When I saw your face and we just talked, laughed and reminisced...the 7 days I spent on the cruise with you flashed before my eyes, each day...meeting you, getting to know you, holding you, hugging you and bringing up the courage to kiss you. Seeing your face and just talking to you...for that moment of however long we caught up for...I felt...free, no stress, nothing on my mind...fully focusing on you. I know we said we wouldn't try to continue this and just try to remain friends cuz it would be hard on the both of us..but when I saw you...I missed you, I missed talking to you, sharing my life with you...I got to know you, the real you...in less than 7 days, we shared so much with each other....I can't believe I got to know a stranger and cared so much for a stranger who lived so far away..anyways, I'm so glad we kept in contact, seeing your face made me really happy...you're amazing. Happy birthday, I wish you all the best, till one day where we meet again :)

My prof was talking about telemarketers or those people who call you about nonsense. He's like when they call I like to play around with me. They call sometimes and are like "hey can I have 30 seconds of your time?" so my prof takes out a stopwatch, times for 30 seconds and as soon as 30 seconds hits he goes oops sorry, that's 30 seconds, bye LOOOOL. Another one was he's like, pretend you're hard of hearing, so you can't hear very well. They'll keep talking and you'll be like what? I can't hear you...to the point where they're yelling, then my prof goes like "well if you're going to tell, then I don't wanna talk to you anymore" then hangs up...LOOOOL so jokes...oh man, too bad hardly any mans come to his class cuz its early morning and it's recorded so people just skip it...he's a real cool dude who makes the class interesting and makes you wanna pay attention.

Real Talks Of The Moment
"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." 1 Corinthians 10:13
This was today's message at church today. Basically just saying yeah God will put you through challenges, but he'll never throw something at you you can't handle. So when things seem hard, unbearable and you wanna give up...remember, God will never put you in a situation you can't handle. God always provides exactly the right amount, nothing more, nothing less...this passage just says that God will never put you in a situation that you can't handle and that he only throws at you what he knows you're capable of. And at the same time, whenever he throws something at you, he also provides a way out as well.

From The Heart: Postives and Negatives
This is something that's been on my mind a lot and something that I've been telling a lot of people lately. I don't get why people always gotta pick out the bad in things and blow them out of proportion. Yeah I know things get bad, but thinking about it and whining about it isn't going to get you anywhere. It's already bad, you might as well try to find some good. It's like when you get a 90% on a test and your parents get cheesed cuz you didn't get higher....are you serious? Why are you trying to find the bad when there's good right in front of you, look at the fact that the person got a 90%. Or like this...someone get's like a 60% on a test and your parents are flipping out cuz you got a 60%...yeah you got a 60%, but look at all the other things you did well on, all the 90's you got. What I'm trying to say is, whether it's bad, you can still find some good in it...and when something is good, stop trying to find something bad about it. It's like when you find the perfect girl or guy but you don't believe it and you have to find something wrong with them cuz there's no way there's perfect, appreciate what you have and stop trying to find trouble. A lot of people are sad as of late with relationship, friendship, family issues, etc. I say...and I always have said...that if you lose one friend (no matter how important he/she is), don't weep about it, yeah it hurts I know cuz they meant a lot to you, but look at all the people you still have. You're getting upset about ONE person, letting ONE person ruin you and it's all you think about when you have SO MANY friends still by your side. It's like you get chicken, but you want steak...but when you get the steak, then you want lobster. What I'm trying to say is...even when things are bad, try finding some good, dwelling and sulking in the bad won't do anything. And when something is good, stop thinking it's too good to be true and that you have to find something wrong with it. Appreciate what you have, stop being sad about what you don't. I guess that's all I have to say....like how're you going to let ONE thing ruin your day, make you sad, etc...when you have SOOO MANY things to be happy for. Keep your head up.

Today....
Was a loaft day, but a good day nonetheless....woke up today...was supposed to reach my friend's house at 10:30 so he could drive me to school, told him forget it, I'm not going, just gonna sleep in. Loafted for most part of the day, prepared for fellowship which was prayer night and I was leading one of the groups. I wanted to make it fun, but at the same time still get to the core...for the most part, I'd say it went really well, I was scared I was gonna finish too fast cuz that's what tends to happen to me, but we actually were really good and didn't even get to finish it all. It really brightened my day when one of the dudes approached me and was like thanks for making prayer night fun...usually bible study and all that ish I can tell most mans are out of it cuz our leadership is...really boring to put it in simple terms...but I tried to make it fun and interactive...and I think it was a real success. And of course I think they learned about themselves and really opened up, people who never talk or have the courage to pray did so today, I'm seeing so much growth in these kids and teens...damn, that's a great feeling.

Words Of Wisdom
So we were preparing for church this friday, the program was prayer night and the pastor said something that really hit me when it came to leading prayer night.
"Shine the light on God so that they can see him. If they don't see him, shine the light on yourself hoping to reflect God through you. After, shine the light on them so they can see the brokenness within one another and the sin."
"Shine the light on God so that they can see him. If they don't see him, shine the light on yourself hoping to reflect God through you. After, shine the light on them so they can see the brokenness within one another and the sin."

Random Thoughts

"And I know there's no way I can pay you back, but the plan is to show you that I understand, you are appreciated." - 2Pac
"And I know there's no way I can pay you back, but the plan is to show you that I understand, you are appreciated." - 2Pac
Nelly - Luven Me
"Oh why didn't I listen to things you use to tell me, knowing that everything you that you said would never fail me."
Ghostface Killah - All That I Got Is You
"All that I got is you, I'm so thankful for you, I'm so thankful I made it through."
Kanye West - Hey Mama
Now you know I had to share this with you...
- this one was on MTV, when his mom was still alive, I love how it's so upbeat and happy and joyful
- this was at the grammy's a dedication to his mom after she passed away...you just feel the love, passion, emotion...I've told y'all before, beautiful...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM
Today's my mom's birthday. I have so many things to say, but words really can't express what she means to me. I love her with all my heart and I know I'm a brat sometimes and I don't show it enough, but I love her, I appreciate her and I respect her. She's the only female in the household with 3 other dudes, me, my bro and my dad....but she's the strongest of us all. She's so hardworking, working form the morning till night. Working at home on her day offs...and going to her client's house and bringing her work to them cuz they're too lazy to move. She really does amazing things. She does all that....while taking care of the family....making breakfast, lunches, dinner....making sure we come home okay, asking us how our day was, etc, etc. It's cliche to say it but it's so true...in my eyes, my mom is the best. Obv in your eyes, your mom is the best. But real talks, my mom does so much and never asks for anything in return. I love you mom, you're my friend, my role model, my inspiration and my motivation.
Derrick Rose said in his MVP speech and I'm gonna paraphrase this...but he was saying that when he has bad days or when he doesn't feel like doing anything, he thinks about his mom....how she would have to get up early...prepare the food, wake him up for school, get ready for work and all that ish. He was saying how when he has bad days, he thinks about his mom's bad days and thinks about what she goes through and how she perseveres it. He says, those are real bad days when his mom is sick and has to take care of her sons, etc....he's doing what he loves...there shouldn't be no mad days.
But yeah....my mom works so hard...and my biggest complaint is not wanting to get up to go to school...she gets up earlier than all of us...wakes me up if I sleep in, makes breakfast, drives me to the bus stop, waits till the bus comes and leaves before he goes, always calls to check if I'm okay. My mom never stops caring and as annoying as I find it sometimes, I'm so glad that she cares so much and loves me so much because a lot of moms just let their kids go anywhere without even asking where they're going. Some people may complain my parents overcare...but I love it...I love them...they care for me...anyways...this is my mom's special day...so I'm dedicating today's blog posts to her...I love you mom, happy birthday :)

Today....
Well hello there....miss me? LOL...uh let's see...yesterday I had a long day at school, did my midterm...blah...just glad it's over and done. Had a nice car ride with my friend, talked about a lot and just a really positive environment, we laughed, told jokes...s/o to him...he's my brother styll. Headed home, prepared for church cuz I was leading bible study...I was really into the passage, I rewrote my notes from the prestudy but added a lot of things cuz I kinda did a mini study of my own really quickly and I really got into the passage. Led bible study...the new pastor we got is really rubbing off on me. He kinda comes off as a nerd/geek and I still kinda think he is...but he plays basketball, is a cool guy...jokes around, etc. So he's def welcoming himself and yeah, he's cool. After fellowship we headed to some mans house to chill, celebrate birthdays and just have a good time. Played some videogames, board games, overall a good night, some mans slept over, I couldn't cuz I had a doc appointment early morning the next day. Couldn't eat anything after 11 either...so I was dying since I hadn't ate since dinner at like 7. LOL anyways fastforward to today...I heard that some mans got drunk, etc, etc...the usual....I guess I'm somewhat disappointed but more like...you shouldn't have done that...cuz some mans went really overboard...and when you go overboard, you become a diff person...let's just say that. I don't like to drink, I don't mind when people drink, but when they lose self control...that's not cool. If I had been there, I'd def would've looked out for my friends. But yeah, went to the doc...checked up everything, I'm really healthy, so that's good...eating properly, heart's fine...all that good stuff. I'm really reeeeeally good today, like it's been a long day, but in a good way. No stress whatsoever cuz my next test is in like 2 weeks. It feels soooo good to loaft and do nothing when you know nothing is due or you have nothing to study for. Anyways, that's it for now....thanks.

Words Of Wisdom
Download Drake's Take Care album and listen to it...in the end of Headlines, Drake talks for a bit...
"I heard once that they would rather hear about memories than enemies. Rather hear what was or what will be that what is. Rather hear how you got it over how much it cost you. Rather hear about finding yourself and how you lost you. Rather hear you make this an open letter about family and struggle and it taking forever, about hearts that you've broken and ties that you've severed. No doubt in my mind, that'll make them feel better." - Drake
- deep....

From The Heart: Parents
It's been a while since I've done one of these...but that's cuz it really does come from the heart....
Dear Mom and Dad,
Words will never be able to express how much I love and appreciate you guys. You guys are not like typical asian parents. You never asked for A's...you only asked for me to try my hardest and for me to do my best. If I came home and brought an F....you wouldn't get mad, you'd ask me why....because you told me that it's possible to understand the information but still get the answer wrong, that the answer wasn't the most important thing, but the fact that you understood what they were teaching you. They never got on my back for not getting A's...but they would be proud of me when I did...they always supported me and all they asked was that I tried my best. Even when I got a B...they'd be so proud and happy of me....they'd tell me they'd be satisfied with whatever I brought home, as long as I tried my hardest and I myself was happy with it. That alone made me always want to do good in life and get A's just for them. It's really cliche to say this, but my parents work so hard...harder than any other parents. In my eyes at least. My parents work hard to put food on the table, clothes on our backs, pay the bills, etc...they sleep really late and wake up really early...it's a habit for them...they just beast through it. When me or my brother go out they always stay up until we come home, no matter how late we are....they don't get mad...they're thankful we came home safely. Sometimes it gets annoying that they always ask where we're going and who we're going with...but it's only because they care and they want to know where I am at all times and that I'm safe and not doing something dumb. When I leave the house, they always watch me or watch the car pull away if someone is driving me...not cuz they're suspicious of what I'm doing...but because they care about me. The simple things they tell me everytime I take for granted...are really words of wisdom. Things like don't play the music so loud when you're in the car, wear your seatbelt...common things you'd think you'd do but sometimes you don't. Your parents have been on this earth waaaay longer than you and have buckets upon buckets more experience than you do....yeah they lived in the olden days so their thinking is more old fashioned....but they still know what's better for you than you do. They see things 5 steps ahead of you while you only see things 1 day ahead...when you do something, they think of all possible scenarios that could happen because they don't want nothing to happen to you. To your parents...you're the most important thing in this world...you mean the world to them. Why do you think they work so hard...sleep so little...to do everything in their power to make sure that when they pass away, you can live an easier life. My parents work so hard, so many hours, tire themselves out...NOT to make sure we're living a good life now...but they're doing all this to make sure me and my brother live an easier life when they're gone. They don't want us to have to work as hard...they're trying to provide everything in the future not right now. They once told me that when we're gone, we want you to love and care for each other, to share everything we're going to leave for you, to have this house to live in. You guys are brothers, when we're gone, you're going to have to look out for one another and watch out for each other. Yeah my brother is 8 years older than me, but we get along heck of a lot greater than a lot of other siblings do. My parents friends are always soooo surprised when they say me and my bro are 8 years apart but yet we get a long so well cuz they say that's a big age gap. But yeah anyways....my parents are working to make our lives good right now...but they're also preparing for the future....they know their time could be up any second...and they're trying to squeeze in as much knowledge into our heads as we can...and I'm just starting to really appreciate that. My dad would always say his dad (my grandfather) was one of the wisest men ever and that most of the things he knows, he learned from him. At the dinner table my grandfather would always tell stories or just lecture my dad and my uncles and aunts...and my dad would say that his brothers and sisters (my uncles and aunts) would not really pay attention or eat fast and dip...but my dad would always stay and listen to everything my grandfather would have to say because it was just so interesting and he wanted to cherish every minute he had with his dad. My dad does the same...every night at the dinner table, my whole family has dinner together...and as use to it as we get...I love spending that time together with my fam...home cooked meals and hearing my parents talk about random things. I think my dad is one of the wisest people ever and I've learned so much from him. Even when my friends come over you can ask them...my dad shares stories and lectures them as well...and a lot of them think he's really wise too. My dad was a boss in sports when he was my age...he has all these trophies and everything...he was in the army....he boxed...he was amazing. And my mom....omg....when I went back to Singapore and my grandfather and uncles and aunts showed me all these old pics of when my rents were kids to when they got married...holy....my mom wsa beautiful....she was in a beauty pageant...and she won....damn. This post says parents, but it's more about family I guess...I love my family to death....through fights, arguments, disagreements...nothing can break that bond of family. We care about each other so much....my parents love me and my brother so much. They sacrifice so much for us...they're willing to make their lives harder to make ours easier right now and in the future....I'll never be able to appreciate them fully...all I know is that I want to be those kinds of parents...who loves their kids to death and puts their needs and their goals and dreams ahead of my own. Cuz that's what family is about....sacrifice...and love....that when you love your kids or parents a lot....you don't mind sacrificing a bit of time...a bit of money...a bit of whatever...to make them happy, etc....I love my family.

They never got on my back for not getting A's...but they would be proud of me when I did...they always supported me and all they asked was that I tried my best. Even when I got a B...they'd be so proud and happy of me....they'd tell me they'd be satisfied with whatever I brought home, as long as I tried my hardest and I myself was happy with it. That alone made me always want to do good in life and get A's just for them. It's really cliche to say this, but my parents work so hard...harder than any other parents. In my eyes at least. My parents work hard to put food on the table, clothes on our backs, pay the bills, etc...they sleep really late and wake up really early...it's a habit for them...they just beast through it. When me or my brother go out they always stay up until we come home, no matter how late we are....they don't get mad...they're thankful we came home safely. Sometimes it gets annoying that they always ask where we're going and who we're going with...but it's only because they care and they want to know where I am at all times and that I'm safe and not doing something dumb. When I leave the house, they always watch me or watch the car pull away if someone is driving me...not cuz they're suspicious of what I'm doing...but because they care about me. The simple things they tell me everytime I take for granted...are really words of wisdom. Things like don't play the music so loud when you're in the car, wear your seatbelt...common things you'd think you'd do but sometimes you don't. Your parents have been on this earth waaaay longer than you and have buckets upon buckets more experience than you do....yeah they lived in the olden days so their thinking is more old fashioned....but they still know what's better for you than you do. They see things 5 steps ahead of you while you only see things 1 day ahead...when you do something, they think of all possible scenarios that could happen because they don't want nothing to happen to you. To your parents...you're the most important thing in this world...you mean the world to them. Why do you think they work so hard...sleep so little...to do everything in their power to make sure that when they pass away, you can live an easier life. My parents work so hard, so many hours, tire themselves out...NOT to make sure we're living a good life now...but they're doing all this to make sure me and my brother live an easier life when they're gone. They don't want us to have to work as hard...they're trying to provide everything in the future not right now. They once told me that when we're gone, we want you to love and care for each other, to share everything we're going to leave for you, to have this house to live in. You guys are brothers, when we're gone, you're going to have to look out for one another and watch out for each other. Yeah my brother is 8 years older than me, but we get along heck of a lot greater than a lot of other siblings do. My parents friends are always soooo surprised when they say me and my bro are 8 years apart but yet we get a long so well cuz they say that's a big age gap. But yeah anyways....my parents are working to make our lives good right now...but they're also preparing for the future....they know their time could be up any second...and they're trying to squeeze in as much knowledge into our heads as we can...and I'm just starting to really appreciate that. My dad would always say his dad (my grandfather) was one of the wisest men ever and that most of the things he knows, he learned from him. At the dinner table my grandfather would always tell stories or just lecture my dad and my uncles and aunts...and my dad would say that his brothers and sisters (my uncles and aunts) would not really pay attention or eat fast and dip...but my dad would always stay and listen to everything my grandfather would have to say because it was just so interesting and he wanted to cherish every minute he had with his dad. My dad does the same...every night at the dinner table, my whole family has dinner together...and as use to it as we get...I love spending that time together with my fam...home cooked meals and hearing my parents talk about random things. I think my dad is one of the wisest people ever and I've learned so much from him. Even when my friends come over you can ask them...my dad shares stories and lectures them as well...and a lot of them think he's really wise too. My dad was a boss in sports when he was my age...he has all these trophies and everything...he was in the army....he boxed...he was amazing. And my mom....omg....when I went back to Singapore and my grandfather and uncles and aunts showed me all these old pics of when my rents were kids to when they got married...holy....my mom wsa beautiful....she was in a beauty pageant...and she won....damn. This post says parents, but it's more about family I guess...I love my family to death....through fights, arguments, disagreements...nothing can break that bond of family. We care about each other so much....my parents love me and my brother so much. They sacrifice so much for us...they're willing to make their lives harder to make ours easier right now and in the future....I'll never be able to appreciate them fully...all I know is that I want to be those kinds of parents...who loves their kids to death and puts their needs and their goals and dreams ahead of my own. Cuz that's what family is about....sacrifice...and love....that when you love your kids or parents a lot....you don't mind sacrificing a bit of time...a bit of money...a bit of whatever...to make them happy, etc....I love my family.

Random Stories
So this happened yesterday in my lab before I left, can't believe I didn't tell you guys this. Anyways so backtrack w/ me a bit to a Wednesday after my 8:30 lab, I was chilling before my class and rmb I told y'all some girl came up to me and asked if I was in her Monday lab, the one I had yesterday, she was kinda a cutie and we chilled and flirted rmb??? So yeah she's in my Monday lab, where Karissa, my cute TA is there....so I came to lab sat down, and 5 min later, the girl comes and she's like hey haven't seen you in a while (cuz no one ever stays the full 2 hours, they do it at home, get it marked, then dip), and sits beside me, we start talking, catching up and ish and she's like we should chill sometime. So we're talking about something I can't remember, and Karissa comes (only time I'm using names, I won't use names when ranting and ish & I'll never expose people) and comes in the middle of me and her to mark mine and out of the blue, the girl goes EXCUSE ME...I was talking to him....and in my head I was like....uh....what just happened, Karissa turns around, grills her and goes, shut the eff up...LOOOOOOOLLLL, then she turns around, smiles at me and marks mine.....goes to mark someone elses and I look at the girl, who wasn't really phased, so I'm like uh, my bad...you still wanna chill, and she was like sure and smiled at me :)....so when we both dipped, Karissa was like see you next week Rodmond and grills the girl beside me....most awks moment ever...hahahhaha
