HAVING AN OFF DAY

STRANGE... I DONT HAVE MANY DAY WHERE IM NOT FEELING MYSELF. IM NOT TALKING ABOUT BEING SICK OR ANYTHING BUT THE WAY YOU FEEL. TODAY I JUST FELT LIKE THAT I WASNT ALL THERE AND THE SMALLEST THING WOULD SET ME OFF. THATS WHY YOU JUST PUT IN YOUR HEADPHONES AND FORGET ABOUT THE WORLD AND JUST CONCENTRATE ON YOUR WORK.

THIS ISNT REALLY GOING TO BE MUCH OF A POST SINCE THERE ISNT A REAL TOPIC AND THAT IM TIRED AND SLEEPY LOL. HOWEVER I HAVE SAID IT BEFORE AND WILL SAY IT AGAIN... YOU HAVE TO DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE. THIS TOPIC SEEMS TO BE LOST IN THE ARTICLE THIS GUY WROTE THAT I READ RECENTLY. I POSTED IT ON FACEBOOK AND SOME PEOPLE COMMENTED, AND I REPLIED. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT JUST SETS ME OFF AGAIN... LONG STORY SHORT, HES 26 AND IS WORKING IN A BOOKSTORE FOR $11 AN HOUR AND COMPLAINS HOW HE CANT LIVE OFF THAT AND $15 WOULD BE NICE. WELL... LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!! YOU GET PAID FOR THE AMOUNT OF EFFORT YOU PUT IN. IT DOESNT TAKE MUCH EFFORT TO TAKE A PAYMENT FOR A BOOK. WHY SHOULD YOU BE PAID MORE... I GET PAID WHAT I GET PAID CAUSE OF EVERYTHING I HAVE TO DEAL WITH. THIS GUY I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO SYMPATHY OR FEELINGS FOR. SERIOUSLY IF I EVER MET HIM I WOULD JUST TELL HIM TO GROW UP AND STOP YOUR BITCHING!!! DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO AND SHUT UP. IM PISSED THAT HES BITCHING BUT IM ALSO EVEN MORE PISSED THAT HE HASNT TRIED... WHEN YOURE IN A TOUGH SITUATION YOU JUST HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR SURROUNDINGS OR CHANGE WHAT YOU ARE DOING IF IT ISNT WORKING. THE GUY ISNT DOING WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO TO GET OUT OF HIS SITUATION. EVEN IN THE COMMENTS SECTION HE GETS CHEWED OUT FOR BEING A LITTLE BITCH. I WONT COMMENT ON OTHER PEOPLE BUT FOR MYSELF IVE WORKED CRAP JOB FOR CRAP PAY AND THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS GOING TO SCHOOL SO I CAN GET A BETTER JOB AND WAS APPLYING TO JOBS LIKE MAD. THIS GUY HASNT DONE ANY OF IT. HES JUST THERE DOING WHAT HES DOING AND EXPECTING SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING. EVERYTIME I TALK ABOUT THIS IT JUST PISSES ME OFF. IF YOU WANT TO READ MORE THEN JUST GO TO MY FACEBOOK PAGE AND READ THE POST. IF NOT THEN JUST READ HIS SIDE OF IT AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK YOURSELF:

>>>>>>>>>>GUY WHO BITCHES AND COMPLAINS!!!<<<<<<<<<<

ANYWAYS WITH THAT SAID IM GONNA GO SLEEP. WORK IS FINALLY LOOKING BETTER SINCE I FINISHED MY LAST MEETING FOR THE NEXT LITTLE WHILE. FOOTBALL GAME THIS WEEK THAT WE GONNA CRUSH. THEN THERES THE TONS OF RANDOMNESS IN BETWEEN BUT THATS FOR ANOTHER TIME :)

Q&A ABOUT SCHOOL AND WORK LIFE

WELL HERES AN INTERESTING POST IF I MUST SAY SO MYSELF :) I DIDNT HAVE A TOPIC TODAY AND I ASKED A FRIEND IF THEY WOULD GIVE ME A TOPIC TO WRITE ON. THEY GAVE ME 4... THE ISSUE IS I WANT TO WRITE ABOUT ALL OF THEM ALL AT ONCE BUT ITS GOING TO BE A LONG BLOG SO I THOUGHT ABOUT BREAKING IT UP... THATS TOO MUCH WORK AS WELL... SO HERES ALL OF THEM AFTER ALL :) LOL

WHAT DO I THINK ABOUT EDUCATION?

IN MY HONEST OPINION, EDUCATION DOESNT REALLY MEAN MUCH. PERSONALLY I SLACKED THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL, I GOT A'S B'S C'S. UNIVERSITY I WAS SORTA BORED AND WASNT REALLY SURE WHERE I WAS GOING IN LIFE, JUST LIKE ALL KIDS AT THAT AGE WHEN YOURE IN SCHOOL. IN THE END OF ALL OF THIS, I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL, BCIT, SFU, AND UBC. I ENDED UP WITH A PIECE OF PAPER FROM ALL THE MAJOR SCHOOLS AROUND AND ITS ALL IN DIFFERENT THINGS. EDUCATION THESE DAYS IS LIKE THE STANDARD. IT USE TO BE WHERE ONLY THE SELECT FEW WHO ARE SMART ENOUGH CAN GET INTO UNIVERSITY, AND ONCE YOU GRADUATED THERE ARE JOBS LINED UP FOR YOU. UNLIKE THESE DAYS WHERE YOU ARE ALMOST EXPECTED TO HAVE A BACHELOR'S IN SOMETHING. PEOPLE THESE DAYS EVEN HAVE MASTERS!!! ITS COME TO A POINT WHERE HAVING EDUCATION WILL HELP BUT THAT ONLY GETS YOU THROUGH THE DOOR. A LOT OF PLACES DOESNT EVEN BOTHER WITH EDUCATION ANY MORE AND EXPERIENCE IS WHAT COUNTS. SCHOOLING REALLY OPENED UP MY EYES TO SEE WHAT ITS LIKE, AND ITS A GOOD EXPERIENCE TO HAVE, AND IT IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT FOR EVERYONE. ITS QUITE FUNNY ACTUALLY, ESPECIALLY SINCE A LOT OF THE TIME WHAT YOU STUDY WILL HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT YOURE DOING. JUST LIKE ME RIGHT NOW, WHAT I STUDIED DOESNT REALLY RELATE TO WHAT I AM DOING AND ITS JUST THAT. JUST REMEMBER THAT THERE IS MORE THAN ONE WAY AND ONE PLACE TO GET AN EDUCATION, AND IT DOESNT HAVE TO BE IN A BOOK IN CLASSROOM.

WHAT DO I MISS ABOUT BEING A STUDENT?

NOTHING!!! LOL THATS BASICALLY WHAT I MISS!!! NOTHING!!! SCHOOLS LIKE WORK. YOU HAVE TO WAKE UP EARLY, GET READY, GET TO SCHOOL, AND SIT THERE ALL DAY. WOULD I DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN? NO. UP UNTIL VERY RECENTLY I WAS STILL ACTUALLY A STUDENT AND THE ONLY THING THAT I MIGHT MISS IS ACTUALLY MEETING NEW PEOPLE. KNOWING ME IL END BACK UP IN SCHOOL TO LEARN SOMETHING ELSE VERY SHORTLY LOL.

HONESTLY I AM LUCKY TO HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO FIND A JOB THAT I LIKE AND ENJOY :) I HAD TO GO THROUGH MANY JOBS THAT WERE... INTERESTING... BEFORE I FINALLY FOUND THIS GEM. A LOT OF THE TIME JOBS ARE REALLY FOUND BY WORD OF MOUTH OR BY CONNECTIONS AND WE ALL KNOW THAT ONLY A SMALL PORTION OF JOBS IS ACTUALLY POSTED. IF YOU THINK YOURE IN A BAD PLACE OR THAT YOU NEED TO DO BETTER, DONT WORRY!!! EVENTUALLY, INEVITABLY,  ABSOLUTELY YOU WILL FIND YOUR CALLING. EVERYTHING TAKES TIME.

AND THE OBLIGATORY WEEKLY UPDATE, I DIDNT DO MUCH JUST WORK AND HUNG OUT AND THEN FOOTBALL!!! IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A GAME IN WHICH WE WON... BUT WE LOST AND WE PLAYED PRETTY HORRIBLE THAT GAME... ITS ALRIGHT, JUST GET BACK AT IT NEXT WEEK :) OH AND ATE 4 LOBSTERS THE OTHER WEEKS SO THAT WAS NICE LOL.

LONG STORY SHORT IS THAT I DIDNT FOLLOW SOME SIGNAGE BUT ITS COMPLETE BULL SO WENT TO DISPUTE AND THE COP NEVER SHOWED SO I WIN :) I WAS WAITING THERE AND WAS HOPING THEY WOULDNT SHOW AND IT WAS CLOSE... THERE WERE ABOUT 8 CASES DURING MY SLOT AND 6 WERE THROWN OUT. FIRST GUY DROPPED IT, SECOND GUY PLEADED GUILTY AND GOT A REDUCTION PLUS SOME MORE TIME TO PAY THE TICKET. THEN THIS GUY... A GUY WHO DIDNT KNOW WHAT HE WAS IN COURT FOR... HE THOUGHT IT WAS FOR SPEEDING IN HIS TRUCK WHEN IT WAS HIS MOTORCYCLE... HE THOUGHT IT WAS THE DAY WHEN IT WAS AT NIGHT AND EVEN THE JUDGE STARTED TO GET ANNOYED AT HIM... COP DIDNT SHOW SO ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS PLEAD NOT GUILTY BUT HE SAID GUILTY FOR SPEEDING BUT NOT GUILTY CAUSE EVERYONE DID IT... ARE YOU KIDDING ME... JUST SHUT UP AND SAY NOT GUILTY AND IT GETS DISMISSED!!! THE COPS NOT THERE YOU DEFAULT AND WIN SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!! I SWEAR IF MY COP SHOWED UP I WOULD HAVE BEEN SO PISSED!!! I THINK IT WAS TOO LATE SINCE IF HE DID SHOW UP I NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO BARGAIN... ANYWAYS JUDGE BASICALLY DID EVERYTHING HIM WHILE HE WAS BEING AN IDIOT FOR 5 MINS... HE LEAVE AND JUDGE CALLS ME UP. JUST ANSWER THE QUESTIONS ASKED!!! YES YOUR HONOUR, YES YOUR HONOUR, YES YOUR HONOUR, NOT GUILTY YOUR HONOUR, THANK YOU YOUR HONOUR, HAVE A NICE DAY, AND I WAS DONE. HOW HARD IS THAT!?!?!?!?! AFTER I DID THAT EVERYONE FOLLOWED SUIT AND BAM WITHIN A MINUTE IM OUT THE DOOR AND HAD THE CASE DISMISSED. SOME PEOPLE JUST DO NOT HAVE THE COMMON SENSE OR THE RESPECT THESE DAYS. HES SUCH A LUCKY GUY THAT NOTHING HAPPENED TO HIM... IT JUST BLOWS MY MIND THAT HE CAN GET AWAY WITH IT BY DEFAULT WHEN HE DIDNT EVEN KNOW WHY HE WAS IN COURT OR WHAT FOR...

THE EFFORT YOU PUT IN

IVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THE EFFORT THAT ONE PUTS INTO SOMETHING, WHETHER IT BE YOUR JOB OR RELATIONSHIP OR ANYTHING ELSE IN LIFE. THERE IS NO HALF ASS, YOU CAN ONLY DO THINGS FULLY TO ALL OF YOUR CAPABILITY. YOU REALLY GET WHAT YOU PUT IN, AND IN LIFE DO YOU REALLY WANT TO SETTLE? NOT REALLY SETTLE BUT IF YOU ARE ALREADY GOING TO TRY SO HARD WHY NOT TRY YOUR HARDEST? JUST PUT THAT LITTLE BIT MORE EFFORT INTO SOMETHING AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. YOU CAN SOMETIMES GET AWAY WITH HALF THE EFFORT BUT IN THE LONG RUN ISNT IT BETTER TO GIVE IT YOUR ALL FOR EVERYTHING? AT LEAST IN THE END YOU CAN LOOK BACK AND KNOW THAT YOU TRIED YOUR HARDEST AND THAT YOU DIDNT LEAVE ANYTHING OUT. THAT YOU CANT SAY WHAT IF? THAT YOU KNOW YOU LEFT IT ALL ON THE LINE AND IT EITHER WORKED OUT OR IT DIDNT. HONESTLY, YOU GET WHAT YOU PUT IN. LOOK AT ATHLETES, SURE SOME OF IT IS GENETICS OR NATURAL SKILLS BUT THEY ALL PRACTICE AND PRACTICE AND PRACTICE OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THAT KIND OF EFFORT AND DEDICATION RESULTS IN WHERE THEY ARE. THEY DO NOT JUST GET TO WHERE THEY ARE BY NOT TRYING. THE WAY I HAVE ALWAYS SEEN THINGS IS THAT THERE ARE 3 TYPES OF PEOPLE, IVE SAID IT BEFORE AND IL SAY IT AGAIN...

1. CONTENT

THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST HAPPY WITH BEING WHERE THEY ARE, DOING WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THEY DONT ASK FOR MUCH AND DONT NEED MUCH IN RETURN. DAY IN DAY OUT THEY ARE JUST CONTENT WITH EVERYTHING. NOTHING REALLY CHANGES AND NOTHING REALLY HAPPENS, BUT THEY ARE CONTENT WITH THAT. THERES NO HASSLE OR PROBLEMS OR WORRIES EXCEPT FOR THEIR EVERYDAY LIVES.

2. HIGH ACHIEVER

THESE ARE THOSE THAT DEMAND AND STRIVE FOR THE SKY. THEY DONT REACH, THEY TAKE, THEY MAKE, THEY GRIND. NOTHING IS EVER GOOD ENOUGH OR THEY WANT MORE. USUALLY A LITTLE BIT MORE BRANDED AND NEED TO SHOW THAT THEY MADE IT. SOMETIMES THEY COME OFF THE WRONG WAY AND RUB THOSE AROUND THEM THE WRONG WAY AS WELL. ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO PROVE, AND DEMAND WHAT THEY WANT.

3. SEARCHING

THIS IS WHERE I AM, THOSE IN THE MIDDLE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY WANT OR WHERE THEY WANT TO GO. THEY WILL NOT SETTLE, AND WANT EVERYTHING THAT THEY DESERVE. WE WORK HARD AND NEVER GIVE UP. WE APPRECIATE WHAT WE HAVE BECAUSE WE MAKE OUR OWN. WE ARE NEVER CONTENT AT WHERE WE ARE AND WE DO NOT NEED TO REACH FOR THE STARS. WE WANT TO BE THOSE THAT CAN HAVE THEIR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO.

FORGET ALL THOSE LUCKY PEOPLE WHO WIN THE LOTTERY, OR ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME. YOU MAKE YOUR OWN  LUCK AND YOU MAKE YOUR OWN PATH. SO WORK HARD FOR WHAT YOU WANT, GIVE EVERYTHING YOU DO YOUR ALL, AND WATCH IT ALL PAY OFF.
