Remember what I said about communication? How it's probably one of the most important things you can do in life? Well, here's an idea of what I meant. So a buddy of mine wrote an 8 line poem relating it back to an awesome game: Super Street Fighter 4.

Randy:

buddah palm hit you like a baseball bat

rhymes so quick like my thousand hand slap

your face to my ass, as i pound the ground larger

hold, down and back makes me a charge....ER?

think my flow lame, if you picked up the game

try so hard...i still put you to shame

honda got the power to make you go boomoh

stance like my words propper to sumo

Me:

Your rhymes are sick but listen to this

my words are powerful like Ryu's mighty fists.

Watch it, here it comes, a storm is in the making!

Quick with the beat, like i'm hurricane kicking.

these rhymes are hot, lightin' up the skies

catch my fireballs and dont act suprised

I hope you're taking notes with that pencil

cause your show is over like it's ex-cancelled.

Dny:

From the 4th street I came and I lost to all yall

Never did I take to heart the pain of my fall

again and again i practiced my links

until i couldn't even fuckin' think

now the name of the game has changed and threw me in the pooper

cause it's now fuckin super.

and all that training, and all those losses

has turned me into one of the bosses.

Watch out for the EX hurricane, cause you know its comin

and when its there, you're probably runnin

Thats where I want you to be, right into my shinku hadouken

motherfuckers never had nothin on me not even gouken.

Umar:

my rhymes so fast u can call em super sonic

your guys flow so lazy like u was smokin hydroponic

If you want action i got it, my flow is melodic

Mostly cus of grey goose, hypnotiq and chronic.

thousand hands and shroyukens aint nothin yall better step back

i keep the sonic booms comin like clap clap clap!

u comin at me from the air? imma make u sit

your teeth gonna be in my boots from a mighty flash kick!

yall aint ready its time i unleash the pain

the storm is comin, here comes the sonic hurricane.

Peter:

you think your street fight game is sick?

well every move you make is the wrong pick

cause i be here getting every women,

theres no way that they could ever deny a real gentleman

I'll sweep you, and into the air you go

when you come back down, ill go machine gun blow!

im a boxer, who wear gloves and drink tea

after im done with you, I'll yell out: you have no dignity!

you think your great with all those poses

but in the end ill be the one throwing victory roses

Joey:

yeeeeehhh i got my gloves on ready to fight

i see you rushin at me but that just aint right

blockin and down back chargin all night

damn doo watcha got? my D is too tight

u keep on hittin me but too no avail,

i can turtle all day like a garden snail

now u just careless cuz u losin the fight.

BAM, headbutt ultra u out like a light!

Yeah, we're losers, but losers have the most fun.

May the fourth be with you.

I guess I spoke a little too soon about the weather in Calgary; It is once again shit. I mean seriously, snow at the beginning of May? That is most ridiculous. Speaking of ridiculous, I happened to come across a show last night with an old buddy of mine and it was a reality show about two families trading their mothers for a specific amount of time. Here's the ridiculous part: One family was straight up Christian and the other family was more of a magical, psychic reading kind of family. And I assume they were situated somewhere in the States because of how obese some of these people were; especially the Christian mother. Anywho, when you put two completely opposite kinds of people together where one family thinks the other family worships the devil, you're bound to have some kind of drama. And drama there was. I can't believe how torn this world is and how obvious the illusions are when watching one family, the one that has been taught to do good and be good all the time, rip on another innocent family who does absolutely nothing to harm them.

May the fourth be with you... tomorrow.

Another new month. Damn, this year is going by quick! Now that spring is here and the shitty weather in Calgary has calmed down, I can finally enjoy the sun and warm air. I have more time on my hands so I'll be updating more (hopefully) and get some kind of layout put together for this blog of mine.

Live and learn, learn to live

The most important thing about life that I can tell anyone is to communicate your thoughts and feelings regularly. This is how ideas begin to form which leads to progress and eventually success. This is how you build relationships with people. Communication helps organize and clear your mind. It helps you express your creativity in many different and unique forms. It helps you understand people and people understand you. It helps you relate or disagree, but most importantly, why you do. Communication not only helps you survive, but live.

Has it really been a month already? I feel like time is just whizzing by without a trace. As if one moment you're here, and the next, you're somewhere else. The in-between events feel like a blur and the future seems so unclear. The only thing I can rely back to are little clips of memories in the past that made me happy. But even I know that I can't stay reminiscent for too long, otherwise you get stuck back where you were a few years ago. I don't want that: I want to be progressing and always growing.

So how can I escape? The answer is easy: Music. Especially trance where I can just close my eyes and escape into another world where sounds become colors and colors become overwhelming feelings of being lost in your own home. It's frightening and comforting at the same time and I love it; makes me feel like a kid again.

This Moment: Nic Chagall ft Jonathan Mendelsohn

I’ve been running on, running on empty
For way too many miles now
I’ve been flying with broken wings

And now I’m falling faster to the ground
And it’s a bitter end to a story so sweet
Like a long lost friend
That’s never found a way back to me
And I can’t deny these memories
Got me all locked up inside
And you hold the key
All that I need is this moment
To send me away with a smile on my face
I tried to leave but I turn back
On my heart remains a trace
All that I seek is this moment
All day in my mind I recreate
If there was a way to get back
This feeling of chase..of chase
All that I need is this moment
This moment..

Patience is the key to everything, and that's something I'm going to have to work on. I need to learn how to develop and improve upon this aspect of my character. It's the tranquility I'm interested in; keep cool and balanced. I feel the more I learn to be patient, the more I learn to invest in time. Our life is ticking away. So the more I make time work for me, the better.

When time works for me, mistakes become answers, risks become opportunities, and failures become growth. Time is the greatest teacher and I'm willing to learn.

The Hourglass

In reminiscence,
a thought dawned upon me
quicker than the winter sunset.
Of how the sand of time flows
without a second thought.
It leaves stragglers blind
in the shadows of the past;
no time to look back,
what's done is done.
Tomorrow has already begun.
Tomorrow has already begun,
what's done is done.
No time to look back
into the shadows of the past;
it leaves stragglers blind
without a second thought.
The sand of time flows
quicker than the winter sunset.
And a thought dawned upon me
of reminiscence.

Procrastination: My biggest enemy. I have a bad habit of leaving things until the end. I suppose, however, I get the job done and that's what matters the most, right? Although, I do pay the consequences. For example, today I finished up an accounting group assignment but didn't finish in time for a birthday dinner. I feel reckless. I should up my game and do things in small parts over a period of time. That way, I'll have less stress and more time for other people.

I'm a night crawler. I like to stay up late and roam around outside, blasting my music in my car, cruising the high way; it's my escape. The darkness isn't scary at all: reality is. And that's exactly what the light shows.

The day is the time for procrastination. The night is the time for relaxation. The moon guides me and the sun blinds me. Close my eyes and I begin to dream. Open them and I begin to scream. Let me go and go let me, hurry, hurry, hurry!

Hypo's

Me: Have a good one!
Customer: How can I have a good one? I'm working'!
Me: Well, we can always try, right?
Customer: That is true.
Me: *Hands change to customer*
Customer: Thanks, have a good one!

Some people are weird. They complain about something and then completely flips around and does the exact thing that they were complaining about. What's the word I'm looking for? Ah, yes: Hypocrite. I guess we're all hypocrites once in a while. It's up to other people to make these hypo's see things from a different perspective. That's right, I just called them hypo's, kind of like the animal hippopotamus. That was surprisingly hard to spell on the keyboard.

Anywho, moral of the story for today: Don't be such a downer. I catch myself playing that part a lot lately. Gotta open up my eyes and stay optimistic.

Hammer Time

My body is in pain! But it's the good type of pain; the one from working out for the first time after about two years. So it's about time I got my lazy ass up and start lifting some weights! Taking care of my physical self is now a priority for me. I need to stay healthy so I can feel good about waking up every day. I remember how it was back in 2008: feeling invincible like I was able to take on the world. Yeah, it's hammer time. Speaking of my well-being, I also need to get back in to the habit of writing things down. Ever since the blog site Galoomba.com (previously known as Calgaryplanet.com) shut down, I haven't been keeping up-to-date with my daily blogs. It's been almost a year now and I feel the need to keep my brain just as active as my body, which I'm hoping will provide a healthy balance in my life.

In retrospect, it's all about the pursuit of happiness. I felt unaccomplished lately and things need to change. My life isn't balanced and I noticed I've been really cranky and selfish lately and easily annoyed. Unfortunately for my girlfriend and the people closest to me, they have to put up with my heartless remarks and actions and I feel like shit for it. I don't want to feel like that anymore. So this is it, 2010. It's my time to shine.

Old Epiphany Blog

I had an epiphany tonight as I was walking home! You see, there is a dark spot near my house, a field, with no lights. I was walking on the pavement and I happened to see a white dot ahead of me up in the cloudless sky. I assumed it was a plane that had made its way up into the atmosphere, ready to travel across the lands, however, it did not move. I instantly looked up only to see a dazzling spectacle of twinkling lights: Stars! It was beautiful. I was marveled and intrigued by the twilight of outer space. Of course, I was still walking with my head tilted up and noticed I had strayed off the path I was previously walking on. Now before I reveal my epiphany, allow me to explain something you may or may not have already known. As science has it, light has a maximum velocity. Therefore, in theory, the stars we see in the sky are light waves that took time to reach the earth. In other words, when looking at the many stars in the sky, we're looking into the past. My epiphany was that if you keep looking into the past, good or bad, you will start straying off the path you were once taking. Be aware of your surroundings and, although it is great to have memories, look forward and keep moving. Work your way back to the path and head for home.

My Girlfriend is Dope

Hey there, buddy.
You're like a friend to me, the best.
So let's forget about the rest
of my problems and spend the time in this cloudy space out
in this freshly intoxicated atmosphere
and rejoice with smokey tears.
My Juliet.
Kiss me and fill my lungs with sweet poison.
Send me into a tranquil trance and comfort my feelings
away from any tragedy
where I can be
free
from society
who keeps telling me
that I can't be
your Romeo, please!
Let them see
I only want to be
free.
