The Hills...reality or fake?

Good day friends,



I am fresh back a long weekend in the City of Angels. I went out to watch my younger brother graduate from Pepperdine University(woop, woop!) Anywho....moving on, Southern California is quite a place, I thought I would walk away unscathed but no such luck. The graduation itself was pleasant at a glance but beneath the layers make up, arrongance and money there about as many versions of Lauren Conrad and Spencer Pratts as there are versions of cells phones. Don't take this wrong way, I was super duper excited to see my brother graduate from an amazing school, but I was blown away with how much fakeness prevaded that field. I wish I could say that I was beyond all the hoopla, but even a grounded indivdual as myself got caught up in the reality that is SoCal. Most moments I would say that kind of life is shallow and imperfect, but then there are those moments when I get caught and wish that my life could be like that. Those moments are mostly reserved for when I think material and worldly things are going to complete me. I know of only a few things that have brought me true happiness and to be honest none of those moments inlcuded anything material.

And since it as taken so long for me to post this I have completely forgotton my train of thought. As I look back it seems as though I was on a roll, I guess you can't stop the money train once you get it going.

Blog to you later....most likely when my life stops being a crazy train of schoolwork.

Why are Aliens heads so big?...

Well Folks, the mystery has been soloved...aliens heads are bigger than ours because they have a condition called hydrocephalitis. If you are a little confused, well so was I. I was in my Anatomy and Physiology class and the conversation started to circle around the condition hydrocephalitis, which is water in the brain and causes the head to enlarge. Typical conversation till one of the other students legitimately asks "Is that why aliens heads are so big?". WHAT?(the first thought in my head) The professor casually replies that he has never encountered an alien...um, righty oh, no one else has either. I about peed my pants at the ridiculous thought. Suffice it to say that was the kick off to a busy but rad weekend.

I wish I could say that my weekend surrounded around me laying by the pool and catching some righteous rays, but I spent a significant amount of time at work. But I was able to make some time for socializing, spent time with friends and enjoyed the elements of an outside patio. Overall, a great weekend, but I am real tired tonight.

As much as I think that the "alien" comment was silly, I also think that there are many things that I say or believe that other would find very silly. Shoot, there are things that I say that I think are very silly...one example would be "Man, I wish I was a smoker so that I can go hit on that guy out there." Actual commentary from my weekend, can we all say ridiculous? Sooooo, I guess the lesson that I learned is, I can't really pass judgement on others, unless I am willing look at me.

Till next time bloggers,

Patience is a virtue...

Sooooo, this is my first stab at a BLOG, OMG, I might not be the most savvy with for a while, but I am going to do my best.

The reason for it all...
I feel as though I have a lot to say and a lot to say it to, so to make it easier for me(I know, sounds selfish, but so true) I have created a blog. So I am here to get my blog on and I hope that it is inspirational, thought provoking, humorous, chance to connect, and informational.

Thanks for coming and reading, blog to you later.
