Let me begin, by saying this vacation is paid for. I couldn’t ask for more, three months of work, and I already have a 5 day paid vacation. Secondly, I am on the deck, outside of my room, on my laptop, listening to the ocean. I seriously, could write a book right now; or at least, a short novel.

Next, words can not explain how beautiful this is right now. I’m thinking, something so beautiful yet so powerful and so indecisive as it can change from calming to terrifying in a split second or a heart skipping a beat — the ocean my friend, is amazing.

With that previous statement in mind, I can’t help but think about a few problems I presently have. I can’t state this how I want considering I truly don’t know how to say it. Sadly, yes, I know! I can’t put a thought into words which is tremendously politically incorrect; or something like that..for me. Girl, simply confuse the hell out of me. Yet, one girl that has completely swept me off my feet throws me against the wall at the same time. It is almost heart breaking yet I could never let go.

I don’t know what I’ll do as of yet. However, I’ve been on “vacation” for no longer than twelve hours and already have I received  a handful of numbers, a facebook friend request, two party invites and countless waves, hellos and winks. Yes, even winks, hold my mouth with me as I vomit yet smirk ridiculously.

I’m getting another beer to wash away these sad thoughts and enjoy the sounds of the waves crashing down; kind of reminds me how I feel at times, I’m just riding the wave in and going back out to try it again. I hope she can be the wave that never ends, or breaks.

vacation 1

This is the horoscope I had for the day my two-faced-ex-girlfriend and I broke up:

Daily Couples:
Look at that sly smile on your face! What are you hiding? Well, nothing actually. Your sweetie knows you have hidden depths, so don’t be surprised if they think something’s up. They just want to be closer to you.

However, my weekly horoscope reads this:
Stress and love don’t make a great cocktail, and during the first few days of this week, you may need to deal with some of the former while being extra careful when it comes to the latter. Your golden rule now: Don’t take it out on a certain someone. Your best time for matters of the heart this week begins Wednesday evening and lasts through Friday. Friendships figure prominently — whether they’re just friends or more — so don’t neglect that kind of love now. Can you be unconditional? When the weekend comes, if something odd catches your attention, don’t ignore it.

In the end, in retrospect, both of these make complete sense. The first one is actually more for her as she turned out to be a huge liar, player, whatever. And my weekly horoscope is perfect in so many aspects…so many.

I’m not talking about who lies more. Or even considering why she lied to me, so many times. Not saying, I’ve never lied. (at least, I never lied to her) I’m not a doctor just a boy, a geek, an self-proclaimed expert of google. I will use some information I found here and there and go with it. Actually, just a quote:

You basically have three choices: 1) ‘Fess up. 2) Make up a story, any story. 3) Try to distract him/her.

In my case, the girl seemed to make up a story as well as swear on someone’s life to make the false story seem truer. Which, at any rate didn’t work what so ever believe it or not; I’m not sure how people can do this, especially swear on someone’s life when you know what you’re saying is completely false, untrue and so distant from any truth available.

After the liar has lied, what do they want more than anything? Yes, forgiveness. Go freakin’ figure. I mean yeah, it is the right thing to do, but only within due time. But no matter what you say or do, it matters, what I see.

So as the forgiveness-guilt-trip begins, and both walk down the dreaded please-don’t-do-this lane, the tears fall, voices become soft and everything’s a blur.

Let me escort you into some insight. She begs to start over with trust. She begs to start by forgetting the past. She begs and begs almost enough to allow you to over-come such a hole in a rocky road to simply, let go of what has happened. But wait, you can not. There is something you must do before you allow that to happen and that’s the cell phone check.

By all means, never ever try pulling a guilt trip, with trusting someone while all the time you had complete control over someone else’s phone. She had my phone in her hands more than it was in mine. Checking over my text messages, sent, received, missed calls, dialed calls to incoming calls. But the one time, the single time I wanted to see her phone (okay, maybe second…the first time, I had no idea what exactly I was looking for) I was not allowed, for not only one reason but two.

The first reason being, we need to start off with trust. The phone doesn’t matter. The second reason, it’s in my car because I didn’t want to bring it here to create a distraction.

Rough, right? Almost sounds logical. But no! Everyone knows when something is up, something just isn’t adding up. I wasn’t letting go of not seeing the cell phone. Deep down, I could just tell, I had to see that cell phone. She pleaded her case but I wasn’t having it. Finally, after two, maybe three guilt trips…we left the house.

Down to drop her off, I insisted I wanted to see the cell phone. She said, “there is no reason. Nothing is on the phone you don’t know about.” Somewhere before all of this happened, she said, “I don’t care, it is just a phone and there’s nothing I’m hiding.’ Well guess again bucco…obviously you’re hiding something.

Finally, after basically ejecting herself out of the car as bread pops out of a toaster she leaves my car to run through traffic jumping over a bus, rolling off a car’s roof and sliding through her window to land safely in her seat, she finds the cell phone. I watch as she goes through the cell phone. I knew what she was doing. She knew what she was doing. She comes back over, and finally decides to give me the cell phone.

We all know what happens here, everything is missing. Well, actually, ‘auto-erase’ was enabled and well, that’s what happened…or so she claims. Turned out, auto-erase wasn’t even enabled till I turned it on to ‘test’ it. Look, stupid-head, auto-erase doesn’t delete anything except for the old messages when new messages are retrieved so they can be stored. Don’t try and fool a computer ‘almost’ genius. Please, just don’t.

Later that week, she decides to be someone new. Some one she hasn’t tried before. She loses the idea of lieology, secretology and hide-it-all-olgy. The only question is, has she really? Probably not. I know that as well as any stranger. Anyone, ANYONE! can see right through that load of shenanigans.

Furthermore, she claims she will do anything and everything to make things right. Because, she knows we are meant to be together…yet when I asked, ‘was that before or after you decided to lie to me all those times?’ her face went blank and she couldn’t speak anything except mutter the words, “wow, good question.”

More or less, things truly have changed. Look lady; don’t expect me to trust you. You ask me “why I’m so upset,” and that’s because I am fighting myself to trust you and not to trust you at the same time. I will always think lying is cheating and both are the most dishonest a human can do, especially a girlfriend. Oh and please, don’t think I’ve forgotten about you and your little ‘brotha from anotha motha’ cause I haven’t. (hi, twizzler!)

Do not sit there and expect things to be perfect as if you never committed any of this. Surely, I’m not perfect, because no one can be perfect alone. Sure, I said a few mean things, often, and I broke up with you…but who wouldn’t? Honestly, Prince Charming would of ended it all too.

Everyone asks me constantly, “why are you even attempting to work things out?” “Joey, you know exactly where this will all end, once a liar always a liar.” I know but I want to see it be different, for once, I want to prove everyone wrong. For once I’ll be right about something not relating to technology, just once and I’m hoping with all my doubts this is the once that I’m completely right.

I will forever have my doubts with you, you seem to be able to shatter my heart, lie to me, deceive me, put everything back together and still make it out alive. I don’t know how you do it, but if I had one wish, I’d wish for you to just stop everything and just let us out alive and you lose all the horrific intentions you have ever had.

But that won’t happen…because:
I believe that everything happens for a reason. Therefore, people change so that you can learn to let go. As, people do not change, only the situations do.

If you have a phone that is supported by BitPim, I highly suggest you download and mess with this program. If you can that is. It’s very useful. I’ll elaborate later, as of now though, this is the best software I’ve seen in a long time. Something, actually useful for me to play with. =]

bitpim.org is the official site of this program. enjoy.

ps. get it while it’s free!

So here I am, hoping I was exhausted, however, unfortunately, I find myself far from any sort of desire to sleep. Weird, I know. Let me enlighten all of you into my life for the past few months, primarily what I like to call, ‘my year.’ Sadly though, as of now, it has been more down than up. 

I have met someone new, but let go of many before. I have found myself, the biggest anti-drug fanatic, almost turning to drugs. If you know me on a personal level, you know 100% that I would never even consider drugs or any sort of medication to take care of the ‘pain’ or ‘sadness.’ Sometimes, things change, I suppose? Furthermore, I miss some people. A lot. I’m jobless and I hate it. But, I’m also very picky when it comes to working. 

& Of all the things said above, the most important is this, to me anyway: I am thinking of a serious career change. Deciding what you are going to do for a living, for the rest of your life (hopefully) is a rather tough decision. I always wanted to be a journalist. But recently, pre-med and becoming a surgeon sounds more appealing to me. For now, I’ll stick to computers and forensics…but for how long, is the question. 

I got a new tattoo. It is located on my chest. I am no Jesus-Freak, but I do believe. It’s obviously related to my religion, my faith, my God. I can’t say I’m the perfect Christian, however, I do try. I’ll live for Jesus in the best way I can. 

So forgiveness is a big part of religion, if you believe in anything at all. At least, that’s what I was taught. The newest addition to my life brings great times, happiness and many smiles. Yet, there are the lies, the false beliefs and not so wonderful times. I’m coping, but I hope you know, dear, I can’t deal with this much longer. We both know, one more time and I’m cutting you out like ‘it’s nothing.’ I hope I don’t regret this. 

Music remains life though too, and I am always open to new music. Feel free to suggest some. 

So with everything said, I plan on only updating from my laptop, where I can ‘get into a zone’ and feel like a writer. Gay? Probably, but it will suit my split personality. Just kidding. However, who doesn’t like to ‘pretend’ to be something they aren’t. 

Oh, PS. 2008 is my year. Why? Because, 8’s my favorite number and well, one of the best things that could of happened, happened. =] nevertheless, I’ll never explain.

i hate being torn into two or more. a feeling i currently possess is outrageously ridiculous! i can’t explain, cause the result of that would be questions. i’m running low on patience and i don’t want to let go. i’ll fight the pain but how much fight is in the tiger? God is love, right?

if this doesn’t make sense, for whatever reason, good…but if it does, than i’m sorry for you.

my song is on, and i’m thinking of you.
carson daily’s show: plain white t’s - hey there deliah

& i’m done rambling, blubbering, being indecisive. i think its time….

What a wonderful afternoon it is, well sort of. Unfortunately, I’m sick as heck with severe congestion probably due to a sinus infection or the flu which teamed up with an extremely sore throat. I’m horrible. I have to be ready for Monday night though. =]

I’m watch the Steelers play and that’s about it, besides adding folks on myspace because that’s how I roll. I’m still looking for a computer job but in the mean time, I’m paying the bills and rolling in the dough by working for his construction company.

I’ve met some really cool people in the past month. I’ve also traveled. I went to Atlantic City for a few days. Obviously, being 21 and all, I gambled won lots and that was a good time. Oh, I went with my grandma, and I couldn’t of had more fun!

That is all now. I’m going to go rest, yet again.

PS. I’m kind of sorry I’ve been so busy that I haven’t been keeping this up to date. I’ll do a little better this week, or at least attempt to. It’s hard working in the cold. It beats the hell out of you. My day multiplied by 5 (monday-friday) consists of this: wake up early, get to work, freeze, get home, eat, watch tv, pass out, wake up in the middle of the night, add some folks on myspace, go back to bed and do it again tomorrow. How fun!!

Happy Holidays! 

it’s a few weeks later than last time I thought I would update, but yeah. I’ve been busy. If you get a chance, play The Darkness for XBOX 360, be cause, it is amazing. :)

Being 21 is wonderful. I’ve had some great times lately.
Girls. I’m done with you, all of you…all you do is confuse me and I’m really tired of it. I try. I wonder. I wonder why I try so hard for you. End.

I found this little text file on my computer and decided to post it, so I can delete the little bugger:

Here we have, Sony’s “Innovation:”
* Copy the live service and guide button
* Copy the motion sensing functionality of the Wii
* Remove features (Wi-fi, HDMI, ports) from “Core” System
* The size of the Xbox 1 with the price of the 3DO
* The idiotic pack pricing model of the 360 SKUs (and PSP)
* The overpriced proprietary media format (ala the N64)
* Rip-off the 360’s achievements and call them “entitlements”

yeah, right now. 21. legally able to drink. holy crap.

I’m kind of in a bind with life, and God’s helping.
take care everyone.
i’ll be around.
