MY MINDS A BLANK

SO... I DONT REALLY HAVE A TOPIC TO WRITE ABOUT THIS WEEK. I CANT EVEN THINK OF ANYTHING TO WRITE ABOUT... I LOOKED AT THAT LIST OF LEGIT TOPICS AND REALIZE THAT ITS GOING TAKE TOO LONG TO WRITE ABOUT IT AND THAT I CANT REALLY THINK STRAIGHT RIGHT NOW. I MIGHT BE LAZY TOO, BUT THAT CANT BE IT LOL.

IM SITTING HERE LISTENING TO THE RAIN HIT THE WINDOW AND MY MINDS BLANK... I CANT EVEN REALLY THINK OF STATEMENTS TO WRITE, AND THIS IS AFTER ME SAYING THAT IM GOING TO KEEP WRITING FOR NOW. ITS DAYS LIKE THESE THAT I WONDER WHY IM STILL WRITING, AND NOW WE BACK TO SQUARE ONE. YOU NOW ALL GET A POST ABOUT NOTHING.

OK, SO I TYPE UP A PARAGRAPH AND IT WAS GOING SOMEWHERE BUT THEN I REALLY DONT KNOW WHERE IT WAS GOING SO I JUST DELETED IT.

ANYWAYS, SO I WENT OVER TO MY BROTHERS PLACE TO WATCH MY NEPHEW FOR A BIG AND PICK UP MY PARENTS THE OTHER DAY. NEPHEW WAS FINE, I PUT HIM TO SLEEP AND ALL. HE WOKE UP WHEN MY BROTHER GOT BACK SO NEPHEW WOKE UP. IT WAS BASICALLY TIME FOR THE NIGHT FEEDING. HE WAS BEING ESPECIALLY NAGGY AND JUST WOULDNT EAT. THEN... FOR THE FIRST TIME... I HEARD HIM REALLY CRY. HES 4 AND A HALF MONTH  OLD NOW AND HE DOESNT REALLY CRY MUCH BUT THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I SAW HIM REALLY BALL OUT. OMG CAN HE CRY. HE GETS SO LOUD AND AT SUCH A HIGH PITCH THAT IM ACTUALLY IMPRESSED LOL. HE MOST DEFINITELY HAS MY SET OF LUNGS LOL. HIS SCREAM ARE LONG TOO WHICH IS SURPRISING. HE WAS ABLE TO GO ON FOR A SOLID 15 20 MINUTES I THINK AND THEN STOPPED FOR A MINUTE, I GUESS TO CATCH HIS BREATH AND THEN HE WENT BACK AT IT. APPARENTLY HE KEPT GOING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AFTER WE LEFT AND THEN HE WAS FINE, BUT WOW A SOLID HALF AN HOUR OF ALL OUT CRY SCREAMING. I MEAN HOW CAN SOMETHING SO TINY MAKE SUCH IMPRESSIVE NOISE. WELL NOW I GOT SOME GOOD VIDEOS OF THIS AND WILL SHOW HIM WHEN HES OLDER LOL. ANYWAYS BESIDES THAT HES FUN TO PLAY WITH. STILL A LITTLE YOUNG AND DOESNT DO MUCH BUT YOU KNOW, STILL FUN.

THIS POST IS A FILLER POST I GUESS. COME BACK NEXT WEEK AND WE WILL SEE IF YOU READERS GET A REAL POST OR NOT LOL. WHO KNOWS, I CERTAINLY DONT, HAHA.

BEEN THINKING... BEEN PLANNING... WHATS NEXT

A CONSTANT THOUGHT THAT KEEPS RUNNING THROUGH MY MIND IS WHATS NEXT... IVE BEEN THINKING AND IVE BEEN PLANNING BUT I CANT REALLY FIGURE IT OUT. CURRENTLY EVERYTHING IS GOING GOOD AND IM IN A GREAT PLACE IN MY LIFE FINALLY BUT IM ALWAYS WONDERING WHATS NEXT... YOU KNOW HOW IN THE OLD INTERVIEW DAYS EVERYONE ASKS YOU "WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 5 YEAR?" THAT QUESTION IS SO HARD TO ANSWER. OF COURSE IN AN INTERVIEW YOU ALWAYS ANSWER THAT YOU SEE YOURSELF IN A MANAGEMENT ROLE OR EXECUTIVE LEVEL BLA BLA BLA AND PERHAPS ITS TRUE, BUT HOW MANY OF US CAN REALLY SAY WHERE WE WILL BE IN 5 YEARS. WE CANT EVEN TELL YOU WHERE WE WOULD BE IN A YEAR. SO MUCH CAN CHANGE IN A YEAR, A MONTH, A DAY, A MINUTE... SURE YOU CAN TRY TO PLAN THINGS OUT AND THATS WHAT IVE BEEN TRYING TO DO, BUT THERES JUST TOO MANY VARIABLES, TOO MANY QUESTIONS, TOO MANY DECISIONS TO MAKE TO REALLY KNOW. IF I LOOK BACK 5 YEARS AND THINK IF I HAD ANY IDEA THAT I WOULD END UP WHERE I CURRENTLY AM NOW THE ANSWER WOULD BE NO. I REALLY HAD NO IDEA WHERE I WOULD END UP... I HAD A PLAN AND HAD HOPE TO END UP AT POINT BUT THINGS CHANGE. THE SAME COULD BE SAID ABOUT NOW LOOKING FORWARD AND TRYING TO SEE WHERE I WILL BE. ONCE AGAIN I HAVE A PLAN AND HOPES BUT WHO KNOWS IF ITS GOING TO CHANGE. IN A WAY THIS REALLY PISSES ME OFF NOT KNOWING. I JUST REALLY WANT TO KNOW IF THINGS WILL END UP THE WAY I THINK AND HOPE THEY WILL. 5 YEARS IS SUCH A LONG TIME AND SO MUCH CAN HAPPEN IN BETWEEN. MAYBE WHAT I THOUGHT CANT EVEN HAPPEN OR WONT OR SHOULDNT EVEN HAPPEN. WHO REALLY KNOWS... ONLY THING I DO KNOW IS DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO, TO GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE, AND DONT LET ANYTHING STOP YOU. THERES NO POINT IN WAITING FOR 5 YEARS TO SEE IF YOU END UP WHERE YOU THINK YOU WILL END UP... START NOW AND MAKE SURE YOU END UP WHERE YOU SAID YOU WOULD END UP 5 YEARS AGO.

EVERYTHING ELSE? WORKS BETTER, EVERYTHING IS FINALLY FINISHING UP AND IT LOOKS LIKE NOT MUCH MORE OT :) PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS HAVE BEEN ROUGH... JUST TOO MUCH TO DO, BUT THE REST OF THE YEAR IS LOOKING GOOD AND ESPECIALLY GOOD SINCE ITS SUMMER TIME WOOOOOOOOOO. FOOTBALL IS GETTING INTENSE... PLAYING TO MAKE IT INTO THE PLAYOFFS RIGHT NOW AND LETS JUST SAY THE LAST GAME GOT REALLY REALLY LOUD AND ALMOST PHYSICAL... MULTIPLE TIMES... AND PEOPLE GOT KICKED OUT. SO NOW WE JUST CONCENTRATING ON FINISHING THE SEASON IN A PLAYOFF SPOT. THIS WEEK IS A MUST WIN NO MATTER WHAT AND WE GOT THIS!!! NOTHING IS GOING TO STOP US!!! I SAY NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOCCER SEASON IS OVER... TURNS OUT OUR VERY LAST GAME THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN JUST FOR FUN SINCE WE LOST THE QUARTER-FINALS WAS CANCELLED... THE FIELD WAS BOOKED FOR THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL SOCCER TEAM FOR PRACTICE... SURE... AND THE REST OF LIFE IS THE SAME. JUST HERE AND THERE DOING THIS AND THAT. ENJOY YOUR WEEK EVERYONE AND SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

TRADITION IS IMPORTANT.

THIS IS A SIMPLE POST ABOUT A SIMPLE TOPIC. I DONT CARE WHO YOU ARE OR WHAT YOU DO, TRADITION IS IMPORTANT NO AND IF OR BUTS.

TRADITION SOMETIMES CAN BE WEIRD, ABSURD, LOUD, CRAZY, ANNOYING, FUNNY, LONG, UNKNOWN AND COMPLICATED, BUT IT IS IMPORTANT. TRADITION IS MORE PREVALENT AND RELEVANT TO THE OLDER GENERATIONS AND ODDS ARE THAT US (THE YOUNGER GENERATION) WILL NEVER FULLY UNDERSTAND OR BE ABLE TO DO/FOLLOW IT, BUT WE HAVE TO RESPECT IT. WITHOUT OUR ANCESTORS THERE WOULD BE NO YOU. 

RANDOM PIC OF YOUR DAY: BY FAR THE BEST OYSTERS I HAVE EVER HAD!!! BÉLON IS AMAZING!!!

THE ONLY OTHER WORDS I HAVE FOR ALL MY READERS IS: RESPECT YOUR ELDERS, RESPECT TRADITION, AND LASTLY IF YOU EVER GET THE CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE IT PLEASE DO. IT IS BOTH INTERESTING AND AN EYE OPENER TO HOW THE OLDER GENERATIONS DO THINGS.
