just thought I do one of these quick, workouts are going well and starting to get back into the groove again. I miss/love/hate the soreness I get from them. As for new things going on, well I got a new laptop and its freaking awesome. Finally got myself something nice after working my ass off at work. As for school, classes are almost over, its a bittersweet because I will be missing my Speech 1 class, TJ is freaking awesome and all of the my classmates are the bomb.
One last thing I will leave is this quote
I'm 27, Hispanic male, living life to the best of my abilities. Simple yet complex thinking.

Day one
Ok, to who ever is reading this, starting my workouts again. Mainly going to be rep to failure to trim down with a cardio. Not really planning to lift heavy since I want to trim down instead of bulk up. As for diet, watching what I'm eating so to keep them calories in check.
first concert \m/
So I went to my first concert the other day, it was at the House of Blues in Hollywood to see a few bands that I was introduced to by my buddy Allen. It was epic, got to mosh for the first time, meet and got the autograph of one of my the bands I really like from The Word Alive. And was blown away by Escape the Fate, the drummer looked like Slash, and the main guitar player was bad ass. Got some merchandise and what not, definitely worth the experience, and shall try to go to more, especially to Warped Tour in a month or two.

mental health break
one of the many things I have gotten to know lately this semester is to take a day and just chill. Took a morning this day, planning on going to the best class ever in a bit, then hit up Disneyland since my friend Noemi never been there and it was her late bday plan to go. So it should be awesome and I even might post some pics, I know you are so far the only one TJ who follows and 'read' this. Just a quick post, also quick recap, I got sick this last week or two so its been a bit of a late start to my workout/diet routine. How ever I have lost some weight, down to 260, my goal is to get down to around 220 or 210 and be solid. Dream big or gtfo

What the Sandlot showed me today
I'm sure most of you have heard or seen the movie the Sandlot. I was watching today as I am recuperating from this cold that kicked my ass last night. Anyway, as I was watching it I was bombarded by a bunch of thoughts. Like what happened to that innocence/childhood and when and where was it lost. Remembering those old friend that had such an impact in your life either for positive or negative. What happened to those dreams that made everything seem so magical and why we stopped perusing them. And what happens when you go toe to toe with the best.
Now, I sure as hell not getting any younger and life has a way of creeping up and leaving you in the dust before you become aware what just happened. So I did some reflection today, as for my childhood, well lets say I had to take the roll of the oldest quite early in life and to mature early sort to speak and went trough things that most kids shouldn't. But it is what it is, but one thing that I did gain from it is that it molded in the man I have becoming and becoming, sure I have my moments of immaturity and childlessness but I can't be serious all the time now can I, even though that is one of the first impression I give to most people but what evs. Even though its still hard, I still have and make dreams that I want them to become a reality, but as we grow up we tend to fall into comfort zones and routines that in the end feel monotones at times. So at times doing something out of the blue and have fun and letting go is not only rejuvenating but brings that spark that gets snuffed out by becoming and adult.But we must always preserve some small part of our childhood and dreams because its those dreams and goals that get us trough the tough times. But what is harder at times is making those dreams come true, that is the true challenge there
As for the friends that come and go into our lives, the important ones will always leave some sort of mark, either a new style of music/movie even style taste. I think it happens for a reason and happen when you need them in your life and vise versa. I can say I have a few that I wish I still kept in touch, but like I said it happens when it needs to.
Now I thought the 'beast' part of the movie was symbolic in our lives, we all have our inner demons that scare us and blind us for chasing those dreams. Its the unknown that truly scares us, the uncertainty of doing something new or trying something new. And like how it used to be when you were a kid, once you face those fears you see that it was not that dark, creepy or scary after all. Anyway that is all for now, still not sure about this blogging stuff, but its fun. Now I don't know who is out there and reading this, but if you feel like commenting either to keep going or stop go for it and I'll keep it under consideration.

shout out
Ok, I'm still relatively new at this, and it still feel awkward but fuck it.
I would like to give a shout out to TJ. She is an awesome person, funny as hell, great professor and most of all inspiring. Not only is she an accomplished person in teaching, but a cheese expert among other things, she is going for her dream as a stand up comic. Now, I get nervous as hell just doing regular speeches or presentations, but to go up and do her thing and be funny as hell, my props and respects. Now, I don't want to sound like I'm kissing up, which is not my thing just putting it out to what it is. It's great to have had the chance to take her class and start making some goals and dream again, kid you not. I had some down time and struggle with life and stupid ish, but since I've been having the pleasure of being in that class plus all the crazy shannagins that goes on with all my classmates its been liberating to sit back, reflect on what and where I want to be in life and get out of it. So thanks TJ.
Now for a quick recap of today, went to class for my graphics design, its a hate it love it and yet hate it relationship, enough said and this project is going to be a pain in the, well you get the point. Went to TJ's class had a blast like always. Then I hit Dland *that is Disneyland for those who don't know* finally got my giant turkey leg, that thing was humongous, tasted like a turkey/ham and was delicious but could'nt finish it and had to get help from my bro and his girlfriend, another thing I got was, at least in my view an epic red Mickey hat, and I shall wear it every time I go till I get it autographed by him. As for my nutrition plan, lets say today was not the start haha, great time and well spent today. Might put up pics later on.
