Goodbye.
How do I say this.
It’s been fun.
Love you all! You guys are awesome.
Until next time.

Am I capable of love?
donvaughn:
Sometimes people are put in your life so you can love them.
I don’t think I have the ability to love though. Every time I think I am capable of doing it, I fail and destroy the relationship.
I love being my own person, but I believe I want the fun a relationship has with no relationship…not going to happen.
I need to teach myself how to love. Or never love at all.

2012: My year in review
Another year has come and gone. Funny how time flies huh?
This year took me to new places along the journey of life. From meeting new people in my neighborhood, to having a great time in Tampa, FL (even though my SD Chargers lost) this year has brought many good times to my plate. At the same time DVDetailing continues to increase. Although it’s not the size I would like for it to be at...

Unemployment
Being unemployed is an interesting thing. Considering that I was not forced out of my job, but rather left willingly its been hard ever since. I find myself frustrated with no steady paycheck at the end of the week. I do have large savings, but why blow through that?
This is just me rambling, but I do need a job. Quickly.
Until next time.

Wealth.
I have seen more high performance vehicles in my college neighborhood than in my old neighborhood of established wealthy people.
And it’s infuriating.
One, half of these kids have no experience on the track or how to harness the power these machines posess. So basically they are half-assing the experience of the car. Two, who the hell gives their daughter or son a brand new E93 M3...

My goals for the fall.
Lately I’ve been thinking about my goals and how specific they were. After reviewing them, I found that they didn’t reflect my current views or vision I had for myself. So I’m creating new ones. They are:
Start my new project car. Complete full suspension and engine work by Feb.
Gain at least five additional quality clients for DVDetailing’s paint correction service by...
"Friends...how many of us have them"
If you didn’t know, that was from a song back in the days even before I was born.
Today i’m talking about me. I’m going to let you in on something many people probably don’t realize.
I don’t have any friends.
Yes, it is true. As much as I interact and talk to people, I have no true friends. Lately this has troubled me and I’ve questioned who I am...

It's been a while.
Wow. I know I promised to write at least once a week, but life gets in the way. So what can you do? Anyways let’s talk about life updates…
Summer is here and that’s super cool (even though it’s gonna be super hot) and I’m excited. Although it hasn’t gotten off the the best start in the world. I’m confident it’ll turn around though and be alright in...

Such a boring Sunday.
Wow, it’s such a boring Sunday.
Things I am up to today:
Teaching myself how to type correctly. This is something i’ve needed to teach myself how to do for a while now. I can type at a pretty good pace, but it could be faster.
Beat matching/mixing. I’m working to become a DJ! Yes, you heard that right. It’s something that I’ve always been interested in for a while...

Expectations.
No matter where I go or who I meet I always come in contact with someone or people who see huge potential in me.
And you know what? I love it.
I want these people to go “hey, I met that guy at (location)!” Or, “I always knew he would be in a great position.”
I, honestly, always used to be burdened by these expectations of me. I used to wonder “why me, what do...

Great day in the morning!
You ever wake up one day just feeling like the world is yours for the taking?
That’s what I feel like today.
Usually I wake up, not rested, but still put on a happy face for the day. Meet new people, motivate and encourage those around me. But, still I go back to my house and have to motivate myself to do ANYTHING.
Not today. Today I woke up and almost wanted to jump through a window...

Very little for Christmas.
A Hat. A shirt. A scarf. A new iPhone 4 case.
Those were the only things I got for Christmas this year.
But, you know what? I’m ok with that. I am an expensive person! No more closet full of presents or boxes upon boxes of gifts. Now I must save up and make things happen on my own. I love it, because the gratification I recieve when I make that purchase is and will be better than someone...

Why I drive.
“And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension.” -Ayrton Senna
People drive for different reasons. Some, to get from point A to point B. Some, because it’s a necessity to them.
Me, I drive because I love it. It’s nothing for me to get out at 10pm and drive the back...

Twenty-Twelve.
I don’t know how many times I have told someone “prepare for 2012, big things are going to happen.”
I simply cannot wait for 2012. Moves will be made, achievements will be taken, plans executed to the fullest. Those who aren’t prepared will be left behind, those who think outside the box will succeed and excel. I only wish the best for those who are just as excited as me...

Being at the barbershop.
I gotta get this ridiculous looking head cut.
The barbershop is one of those places where you go in and talk about anything and everything. Sports, women, church, people walking by…
Everything.
I’m headed there tomorrow morning (finally).

Sleeping
I dislike sleeping. I feel like nothing gets done. Sure, your body is able to rest and you recover from the days events. But, while you’re awake you’re able to do so much more.
Just don’t get it. I only like sleeping when it’s with a member of the opposite sex. Go figure!

And we're back! (Updates)
What a delay between my last post and today. I simply forget about posting stuff up here.
Well school has started and that’s alright. I’m having a good time, just ready to continue on with life.
I usually get about five comments a day that I should be on the radio or on commercials. It’s the voice, and even though I have it, it’s very very difficult to break into that...

Tumble tumble tumble
Sometimes I think I dwell too much in the past. “What happened if?” or “what if I did it this way?”, and it’s ridiculous. I have multimillion dollar ideas in my head , but have no way to express them. I have multiple lucrative talents, but have no way to use them. Why, I don’t know. But, it needs to end. Everything was started from a dream (and some money). I...

Tough week.
It’s been a rough couple of days. Disappointments and setbacks have marred this week from being another good one. Sometimes I think the guy upstairs is just try to piss me off…it’s working.

Mistakes.
I’ve made mistakes, fallen down, been skinned up, and everything in between.
Those mistakes have haunted me for a long time.
But, no longer do they affect me. I am back on track, and I will be better than anyone out here on even my worst day.
Mistakes, take a hike.

Rain is falling...
Sometimes I wake up, lay in bed, and think about what my life would be life had I been placed on a different route. Not being in private school for eighty percent of my life, not driving nice cars, and having the nicer things in life.
I’m fortunate, yes.
But, the emotional toll on my life has been great. Being a black man, (let’s be honest) we rarely are in that kind of lifestyle at...

World Civilizations (Class)
If you ever have to take history class, do not take this one. There’s no motivation to do anything in this class. Oh well, at least, i’m done at 10am this morning!
Been gone for a while...
Wow, it’s been a long time since i’ve tumbled? Wait, that doesn’t sound too good.
Ok it’s been a long time since i’ve posted some thoughts up here! (There we go). Lately i’ve been busy with school, so much to do in this final week, that I havent’ had the time to sit down and actually talk about myself and my thoughts. For that, I apologize.

Valentines Day
Ah, valentines day. I just spent a large sum of money on my one and only love. It’s almost highway robbery the price they have on flowers. Care fee, shipping fee, early arrival fee…equaled half the price of the dang flowers! I love my girlfriend and could see myself with her for the rest of my life, but really? She’s not getting flowers anymore, she’s getting me. I do more.
Lopsided Super Bowl
So I’m watching this lopsided super bowl. What the heck? This game is wack! I’m watching something else.
Birthday!
So today…is my birthday! Alright! I’m about to hit the hay after day/night one of partying (shooting pool seein’ half dressed women everywhere) and tomorrow will be day two! I would stay tuned, but that’s just me.
First post.
So I’ve heard a lot about these “blogs”. Cool, never really was interested. But, somehow I’ve made it here to tumblr.! Well, this is pretty cool, I plan to keep this up until i’m old and gray (still looking great of course). So you can follow my life starting now, then when you see me on TV’s and magazine covers, and finally when i’m winding down. Happy...
