the time for doing what you're thinking of was yesterday.

and isn't that the truth. stop holding back from doing what you've been contemplating and thinking over all these moments. just go do it. seriously. the time to do it was yesterday!

wow it's been a while, and things have changed!

Wow, so it's been a long time since I've last published something on here. A very long time.

Things have been changing in my life, and i'm sure a lot of 20-something year olds  that are blessed enough to go to college are going through the same thing.

I graduated college in May, and wow things have been busy. I've had many insights before and after that that definitely need to be shared.

life can throw curveballs like a pro

Let's just say things have been extremely busy for me. I've been going through a lot of ups and downs in the past two months.

The high of all of it: going to Costa Rica for two weeks
The low of all of it: Getting broken up with at the airport

But with all of this comes many life lessons.

quarter-life crisis?

Yep, that's what I'm going to call it, my "quarter-life" crisis. (Kind of like the mid-life crisis... but not)

Lately, with the lovely lethargicness of my senior year of college kicking in, I've been thinking more and more about what to do with my life. It seems that all of a sudden the strong shoulders I have have crumbled, and the correctly anchored head that I usually have has begun to float into the clouds.

realization about the internet

I'm crying right now. Tears of joy, tears of frustration, tears of hope, tears of realization.

What caused me to cry?

An add. Yep, a simple add, by Google, on a lyrics site.

Where did time go?

It seems like it was only yesterday that it was the 1st of July and I was learning my most important time-management lesson about projects I've ever learned. It seems like there was no July after that, and somehow it's August. It's amazing, how just having the house (I live with my parents still) to myself, all alone with my cats, makes me realize how fast time truly has flown by.

my life has suddenly become a typical hero/adventure story...

it's been a while since i last wrote. i apologize. sometimes real life really grabs onto that noose we all wear and doesn't let go.

apparently i've been working on this post since like 3 weeks ago. do i remember what i was going to write? nope. but we're winging it here.

life can throw you some unexpected turns and some big realizations. i'll recount many of them here... hopefully some bigger picture lessons will show up as well.

when did i turn into an adult?!

It's an early day for me... I was at the office at 8AM... and then I had to drive to my other office... for 10AM... needless to say, I've had a lot of time to think about life...

As I was driving along, a thought came to me... A year ago I would still be sleeping right now, I wouldn't be stressed out about projects, I wouldn't be worrying about deadlines, especially because it's the summer... and then... out of nowhere... I laughed, and I asked myself... Since when did I grow up?!

happiness within yourself

Realize you can be happy

this moment for no reason. 

Otherwise, you eternally depend on conditions for happiness. 

Unconscious of this moment, 

you remain a victim of circumstances.

getting people to save the earth is like getting someone to quit smoking

I'm really on a roll today with blogs... but as I sat and began to write about a lunch-time speech I sat through this weekend... I made a very interesting revelation...

Getting people to change in a way to save the earth and change to renewable energy is just like trying to get someone to quit smoking.

great weekend- with lots of lessons

This weekend was a pretty awesome weekend for me... It started of with a walk and talk, then lead into a couple of days full of fun, a few new friends, and a spark in the dark.
