Fin

1.) Well to start this post off some of the various writing's I've done this quarter like my blog post about dreams and one dream I had another post I wrote about was the picture that we had to write a story about and I chose this picture

2.) Some piece's I've read in this class were "Fight Club" which I read probably 2 a year, I also read "Enemy Pie" for the childhood section of this class and a final piece that I've read this year it was outside of school but I've started "Trainspotting"

3.) Setting up my blog the first week of this class actually was easy it didn't take to long. I came up with my blog name because I was listening to Gucci Mayne when I was creating my blog and I was just like why not. People that might want to read my blog are classmates , teachers, friends and family. I will try to use this blog still and post ideas or thoughts of mine.

4.) Well my journal is filled with stories, blog posts, idea's, thoughts on my mind.I don't really know who would want to read my journal. I won't continue to write in my journal I think,

5.) Hearing the first song I instantly knew who it was it was a perfect circle, Maynard's voice is unmistakable in my mind, while I was listening to that song I pictured myself at Nathan P Murphy's watching APC I'm in the front of the crowd watching the sweat pour from the lead singer due to the heat of the room. I watch the guitarist strut back and forth across the stage and the bassist headbanging while playing.

6.)As the author sat at his computer trying to think of something to write he took from his cigarette box one cigarette and then sparked the lighter and began to inhale. For a while he just sat there relaxed and embraced the moment then it hit him his next new story his story that was going to make him famous. It was a about a man trapped a prisoner of his own mind not able to communicate properly  and as a result he he lost all he had. As the author began to type away he realised after sometime that darkness had fallen and he had became quite hungry so he got up walked into the living room of his tiny one bedroom apartment and opened the refrigerator he grabbed his dinner from the night before it was pizza, as he placed the pizza into the microwave he walked out on the deck looked over and realised that he is writing about himself and how miserable his life was he leaned over the edge looking down at the street five stories down from there he could see the cars and the people walking by as they went on with there lives without a care in the world he has thought about jumping before I mean he is 30 years old no girlfriend, no kids, no job, living of well-fare and the settlement money he got 11 years ago for black mailing his previous employer but he knew that wouldn't last long. In mid thought he heard the beeping of the microwave going off signaling his pizza was done. So as he walked into his apartment grabbed a beer from the fridge and then his pizza he went back into his room and sat down at his computer and began typing once again he then ashed his cigarette grabbed another one lit that one up and took a long drag from it and then that moment he reclined into his chair arms extended and thought to himself yes this is the one the one that's going to make me famous.

7.) I don't know at this time. I got from this class all the different types of writings we did in this class. Well the writings in my other class aren't as fun and I can't talk about what I want well except in your class I got to express myself.

8.) Don't stop  writing let your words speak for you not actions. I've appreciated reading all this talent this class had to offer.

If you want to go.. (sharpie post)

So on a rainy day late last fall, I --outfitted for an overnight stay -- started walking east. The sky was a heavy gray gauze, maple leaves the size of dinner plates littered the forest floor.  The ground was a tangle of ferns and logs. Birth, death, decay, renewal -- everything was happening at all at once. In a grandeur, the place felt holy, worthy of awe. And it sounded quiet.
Sort of
It turns out that quiet rarely means silent of all human generated noise. In this case that meant a rainfall symphony -- a tapping on fallen leaves and songbirds need to be heard to attract mates and ensure their survival as species.
Natural quiet would be a catastrophe for the human soul. "If you want to  go to a place that sounds like it did a thousand years ago, stand near a waterfall or some rapids on a river"

Response Questions



 Some good pick up lines I've heard in my almost 19 years of being on this planet are: "Hey do you know how much a polar bear weighs?" "Enough to break the ice hi my names Connor O'Leary", "I may not be a genie but I can make your dreams come true" "Can I take a picture of you, so I can show Santa just what I want for Christmas" those are some of the best ones I've heard and they make me laugh.

I can say that I have like a friend of mine's Girlfriend at one time ,but what made it harder was the fact we shared the same feelings. So when they eventually broke up not because of her wanting to date me ,but because he cheated on her with some other girl. At first it was a little weird and my friend didn't like it at all but he knew that I would have treated her better than he did. We dated from the end of April Junior year till about the start of August, we broke up because she was moving due to her dad got a new job in Texas he was going to be a Manager for a oil company. All in all it was interesting to say the least but hey I didn't loose a friend out of it so that's good!

If you would ask me if I'm a good bowler I would say I'm average expect for the one time when I went bowling with Jamie Martz, Emily Walker, Christine Nevins, and Margo Givens I ended up last with a outstanding score of 100 and Jamie beat us all he bowled a 210 (He was a show off ;) ). While writing/reading this question all I could think about though was the Big Lewbowski and how A.) There are no rules in nam'  and B.) You don't mess with the Jesus, but I think though that Bowling is one of the best first dates or any date someone can do I mean even if you suck you're still going to have a lot of fun same goes for putt putt.

If I would have a vacation house/getaway house it would be kind of like the one in The Proposal with Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock, and it would be located on an island too! I don't know I've just always loved fine wood houses and out in the middle of a forest area although for real life I couldn't do it but for a week or two during the summer I could do it easy.

If I could do it all over again.

If I could go back to a place that I vacationed at I would totally do Colorado Springs, Colorado I went there the Summer right before 7th Grade we went there because my sister was getting ready to transfer to  LSU  from Linden wood in St.Louis ,this was going to be the last time we saw her before she went down there so we all aimed to have a blast and boy did we. When we went there the first thing I did like always was got in my swim trunks and went to go hot tubing unfortunately for me there was a storm coming so I had to use the inside hot tub which wasn't that bad. Later on my dad and little brother came down swim and get in the hot tub and relax after a long day of being in the car, when we were getting ready to leave it started to pour so we all ran to our castle of a hotel it was called the Cheyenne Mountain Resort here's a link to there website I still till this day wish I lived here not just at this hotel but in Colorado. The most memorable thing though I'll remember is the purple lighting when I saw it off in the mountains it literally was the most amazing thing I've seen in my life. I wish I could go back everyday.

Lights Camera Action


 Some of my favorite movies are: Fight Club, Blow, The Ninth Gate, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, all the Resident Evil movies, basically I enjoy all kinds of movies today. I usually watch movies 2-4 times a week mostly on the weekend though, I usually watch them at my house on my computer but lately I've been going to my friend Whitley's apartment and watching movies with her and her roommate after the both of us get off work on like a Friday or Saturday. Well it all depends on where I'm watching the movie but a common aspect I must have is that the room has to be dark and also I usually watch my movies under a blanket cause I get cold haha
If there was a movie about my life I would say that it would be a film like "Scott Pilgrim Vs The World" It would be funny and the main character would be skinny just like me

The survey says this about me: 
75% EXTRAVERTED. 
67% AGREEABLE. 
25% CONSCIENTIOUS.
75% EMOTIONALLY STABLE 
50% OPEN TO NEW EXPERIENCES\

The gift was not what I expected...

Yesterday I turned 21, and last night my best friends and I went out for a night on the town. We went downtown and walked into several bars and had a couple drinks. Well next thing I remember I'm woken up by my girlfriend who lives with me and she comes to tell me that she forgot to give me my biggest gift yet since we've been together these past 3 years, when I asked her what it was she said "Brace yourself" I instantly became petrified with fear due to the fact I don't know what's going on Casey (my girlfriend) said that I'm going to become a father. That moment I just looked at her for a while confused but in my head I had a good hundred things running through my brain at once, the biggest one was oh my god I'm going to be a dad.I eventually came back into reality and realized that I need to step up and take action, luckily the both of us have very good jobs and we're going to be graduating college in a month.
Now time to write the next chapter in the book I call life.
