California Hugs

Haha what a day...

At first i thought today was going to drag on and be boring but it was the complete opposite. Our family today decided to go somewhere....they didn't know where to go, so we just went to go eat at my dad's favorite Mexican restaurant El Torrito. The time there was fun, i stuffed some "flautas" and got a free ice cream :)
After that we just drove ad drove and drove...I was tired but in the back seat of the car there was 3 other people sitting with me which made it impossible to fall asleep. My legs were folded and crammed up. I didn't complain i just sat and twisted my body in different ways to look for a comfortable position to sleep in. Time passed by and we showed up at Venice Beach! haha i love this place, full of true Californians and lots of art, music and complete randomness. We walked down the path by the shore where all the stores are, we checked out a couple things, took pictures, and laughed at all the weird things that we saw. It was a little awkward being there with my family especially when they were asking me how the whole "medical marijuana" business worked. I don't know it just didn't feel right haha. While we were walking down we saw a really kool wall and i just HAD to take a picture of it. Its some really kool art work and i love all the characters, it gives the street a personality.

After Venice Beach we headed over to Santa Monica Pier where we took some amazing pictures of the sunset and of the water. We walked a little and went on the actual Pier. Here i was shocked to see a guy holding up a sign that said free hugs. It's not that i have never seen this before, it's just i actually had a chance at doing it. None the less I walked off without my hug. I felt like i kinda betrayed myself but it was ok. We walked a little further and we took some kool pictures and looked at other kool stuff. After we filled our souls with entertaining memories we decided to head back. On our way back i saw the same sign, tempting me to do something about it...but this time, it was a girl holding it. To be honest i feel way more comfortable hugging a woman than a man. So i went for it...I got my hug, i got to sign her poster and i walked off with a smile on my face, all the way to the car, knowing i did something different and meaningful.

The car ride back was just as painful as the ride there. To be honest my back hurts a lot and i got scared when my leg fell asleep and i couldn't lift it up...haha idk it was crazy

Other than having an awesome day today, i found out I'm going to have an even awesome-er day tomorrow haha I'm going to Disneyland again but this time with 3 very special people haha I'm really exited.
That's about it for today, im going to bed because i have to wake up early tomorrow soooo

Night

On Letting Go...

Well i had planned talking about my day like usual but after reading my friends blog post it made me think of a bunch of things, like no joke. (link here its called ADHD)

So back in the day we were just kids, because we would think like adults but dream like kids and not much has changed since then. Now a days I'm stuck "On Letting Go" that's a place where you decide you gotta let go of things but you just cant (its also a album name of Circa Survive), I feel like i have to let go of those fake hopes and dreams so i can fool those that don't know me into believing that I'm not just a kid, but the truth is the only one I'm fooling is myself. Do i really need to let go of all those dreams and hopes i once had and shared with the closest of friends? Now that I've read my friend Andres' post (one of the kids i shared my hopes with), i realize that i don't...i don't have to let go of what i had and fought for. Even though people are changing, the hill is getting steeper and these walls are slowly closing in. I know that if i stick to what i truly want ill find a door out of this window-less room.

Its crazy but now a days i realize the only people that keep me company are just a couple special friends and Minus The Bear haha well not only them, its all my music in total...and im happy with this, "Quality Over Quantity" i don't need a hundred friends as long as the friends i have are true, and as long as i got you, i don't need anything else....crazy but true

Today was the same as any other school day, i got a couple comments saying that my shoes looked super comfortable and that they looked like nurse shoes which i took as complements because im really enjoying my new shoes, and i got a new bed...i finally got rid of my 15 year old bed...crazy memories (if you know what i mean) lol jk

I wanted to post my artwork of the album art "On Letting Go" but i don't have a picture of it and its at school so ill leave you with this amazing picture my friend Vero took (she also took the pic of the flower)...I don't have a lot of to say, other than sunsets always leave me speechless and that I'm still thinking of, and waiting for you...who ever that may be haha

Alright i gotta go now and thanks Andrew for all the good old memories

I'm Out

Night

Regular Tuesday

Tuesday comes and slips by...

Today was just another day, school then home but today i went to a youth group I'm involved in like i usually do on Tuesdays...Instead of what people first think of when they hear the words "youth group" which is the usual Jesus loving/worshiping 24/7 activities were actually not that involved in things like that
We are actually more of a small family that discusses current topics and relate them to peoples opinions and usually find new deeper thoughts on something that was once blurry or somewhat confusing
I'm not saying we don't relate religion in this group because we do but i enjoy coming here because i get to express my opinions on things happening and i get to hear others without being pressed down with any Jesus thoughts or anything like that...its pretty chill and i get to hang out with a lot of friends

I don't want to be talking about religion in the blogs because i know everyone out there has different opinions and such so I'm not anyone to force you into anything or anything like that, I'm actually not that type of person haha i like listening to others more than i like to talk
ill just refrain from stuff like that haha

Sooo the picture was taken last Thursday i believe and it was in a park after my friends finished some soccer practice, I took it with an app on my phone that makes it all cool looking and gives it a border and such...idk i like how it came out....i dont know why but it always reminds me of this one special somebody, its kinda crazy haha

The zombie i was drawing yesterday didn't come out as i wanted it too but it wasn't as bad as i originally feared it was gonna be..it came out alright for being done in about 30-40 minutes...i might post it later, and I feel like im getting closer to reaching that small goal of printing and selling my own shirts i just gotta get better at photoshop :( lol i phail at that

alright its already late so I'm out, and thanks for everyone that actually reads it and follows it, that's pretty kool haha tnx
