My favorite animal.

What is your favorite animal?

In this blog, I will talk about my favorite animal. They are slow like me and eat salad things such as, lettuce and carrots, so they are herbivores.

Yes, I am talking about tortoises. They are fascinating creatures. They do not make as much noise as a dog and they are not as needy for attention like a dog. If you just feed the tortoise he/she is good. Dogs take a lot of work. Tortoises do not take as much work.

So my favorite animal is a Tortoise because they are low maintenance animals. Plus, you can still take them for walks around the park, just make sure you watch them very carefully. Thank you for reading.

Memes and more

In what ways do you communicate online?

In this blog, I will discuss what ways I communicate online. These days, everyone is online, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X, Tictoc, What’s up, Linkin, Telegram, messager,Jetpack etc.

I only subscribe to a few of them such as, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, Linkin, Tictoc, Jetpack, Threads, and Snapchat.

I have been on Facebook the longest, since 2009. I will share funny memes and sometimes, share a question I have for my friends. For instance, I shared, why do grocery stores put on music in the bathroom? When you think people want quiet to do the deed. People responded by saying, to make them use the bathroom quicker.

I mainly communicate with people on Facebook messenger or Instagram messenger. I also communicate with family that way. I have also communicated with family and friends on Tictoc and Snapchat.

It is interesting, if anyone has a Facebook or any other social media platform, I can chat with them. I have found old buddies of mine on Facebook and started talking to them. That is why social media is important. You can find friends from back in the day and start chatting with them.

Also I write on Jetpack every day to keep up with my writing skills. Thank you for reading.

Memories came back!

Think back on your most memorable road trip.

In this blog, I am going to talk about my most memorable road trip. I have been on a lot of them. I drove to Los Angeles one year, by myself. I have been to Ariavipa and the Grand canyon with the family, but the road trip that sticks out the most was the road trip to San Diego CA with my younger sister.

We drove to San Diego from Tucson AZ in 2004. In Tucson we only have a four lane freeway that can be treacherous from time to time. In San Diego, they have an eight lane freeway, which if you don’t realize it. It surprises you all of a sudden. I soon adjusted and it is always going and crowded and traffic jams are frequent.

Anyways, we went to San Diego because we wanted to go to the San Diego Zoo and Sea World. The San Diego Zoo was cool we saw your normal animals, flamingoes, bears, sharks, etc.

Sea World was really cool because we got to see shows with the animals. We saw Shamu a giant killer whale which was quite mind-boggling. This was before cell phones had cameras so I do not have any pictures of the trip.

The most memorable show was with this cute dolphin named Dolly. I was sitting in the soak zone and I did not realize what it was,. When the show started, I realized what it was because my shorts got soaked. So once that happened I moved very quickly. I did not want to get wet anymore, by Dolly the dolphin. To this day, my sister still gives me a hassle about that. She is like,”I told you not to sit there, but what did you do, sit there anyways.” That was a great trip. Thank you for reading.

Snacking on fruit

What snack would you eat right now?

The snack I would eat right now are apples and bananas. Apples are a major energy fruit. They are packed with goodness, such as high magnesium and have a lot of fiber, which is good for digestion. Bananas are high in potassium, which supports normal blood pressure. Also, if I could choose one more it would be grapes because they are high in antioxidants.

In conclusion- I would snack on apples, bananas and grapes. Thank you for reading.

Unthinkable

Come up with a crazy business idea.

In this blog, I am going to come up with a crazy business idea. In a world that is full of crazy business ideas that somehow work. Innovation is the name of the game. Where one idea can make or break a person. Or, it turns the person into a successful business person.

This will sound crazy, but it might fly. How about getting people with disabilities and having them paint murals, especially the ones that can paint and charge companies money for the murals. Or, people with disabilities can go around their communities and start giving speeches about how they received their disabilities. Such as, if they were born with their disabilities, they can say they were born with their disabilities and this is how they cope with it, just an idea.

Or something more of a mad and crazy idea for a business would be making robots come to life. Make robots become more human-like so that they could be used in war, alongside the soldiers, such as in the movie Terminator. Something to ponder.

In conclusion-I went over some crazy ideas for businesses, such as getting people with disabilities painting murals. Also getting people with disabilities to give speeches about their disabilities in the community, such as in a school. Or something more crazy would be to bring to life robots and make them more human-like so they could be used in war, such as in the movie Terminator, just ideas. Thank you for reading.

Playing games

Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?

In this blog, I will discuss an item that I was incredibly attached to in my youth. Then I will tell you what became of it

From the early age of six years old, I was attached to the Atari. I had all kinds of games for it. Pole position, which is a racing game. Chess, which is where I played chess against the computer. Tank where I would play against another player and blow up their tank and they could blow up my tank too. It was a lot of fun. I had about 50 games.

I would come home from school and play games all day after I would practice my drumming or do any homework I had. I loved that Atari.

After I received a bullet in the head, it was a challenge to play Atari. I had a joystick controller so I could use that with one arm, with no problem. I was so tired all the time from a seizure medication that I hardly had any time to play it anymore because I always wanted my bed, but I still wanted the Atari. It had sentimental value to me because it had always been there.

So to make a long story, a short story my mom and her boyfriend at the time, pawned my Atari along with 50 catragies or games. So that is what became of it. I was really disappointed, but now I play games on my smartphone. Thank you for reading l.

The mission has started

What is your mission?

In this blog I will discuss with you, what my mission is. There is one simple answer for my mission. To play music, to write lyrics, and to sing my lyrics.

I love to write so another mission will be to continue writing on Jetpack because this is an awesome site to write on. All the people I have talked to on here are awesome and supportive.

I intend to play music, whether with a shaker or the drums and my lyrics and voice and that should be a pretty good combination. Maybe I can put some instrumental on YouTube to sing to which would be great.

This is a new year, and I am not getting any younger so for me it is necessary for me to quit procrastinating and just do it.

It has been a long time since I got in front of a crowd of people and sang my songs (before the pandemic). So, it will be interesting for me to do it again. I did it many times in the past so it is second nature. I just got to implement it now.

In conclusion- my mission is playing music live and writing on Jetpack. Thank you for reading.

Staying for now!

What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?

In this blog, I will discuss my thoughts on the concept of living a very long life. I am disabled so as I age I will become more disabled. I already have mobility problems and my left arm does not function correctly.

So, my thoughts of living a long life are when the good Lord tells me it is time to die, I will return home, but for now, I am hustling every day to try and make some money so that I can support myself.

The good Lord has a plan and when I attain whatever plan he has for me. I will die according to the plan he has set for me.

Lots of people in my shoes, would have given up on life and committed suicide because for me, life is extra hard. I thank the Lord that I have a roof over my head and food to eat and I can pay my bills. Well, beyond that I take it day by day. I try not to focus on the past so I try to stay busy. The good Lord God will decide when I die. Thank you for reading.

Play more music!

What could you do differently?

In this blog, I am going to talk about what I could do differently. Many people are stuck in a routine of getting up, going to work, coming home, making dinner, then going to bed. This is the vicious cycle of my life. If, I had a couple more hours to play with. It would be golden.

Since, I drive I have to pay for the car so I need to work. There is no way around that. My car is expensive so I need to work all month to make the payment.

If I could do something different. I would play music in front of people more often. Music is my happy place. I like just jamming away and singing. Maybe songs I wrote or not but jamming out. It is fun to see what comes out.

Plus what would really be good, is going back to the gym. The gym, especially cardio helps me breathe better, which is something I need to sing better. Plus, it is healthy to go to the gym. It makes me feel better too.

What would be cool is to play music for money, something to think about. First I would need to go to an open mic so people can see my talent. Then, talk to the owner of a bar and try to get a paid gig, which is cool. Well, I have my work cut out for me.

I have to work my job to pay for my car. Also, work on playing music at an open mic. Plus go back to the gym. So that is what I could do differently, but I am in the vicious cycle of getting up, going to work, making dinner and then bed.

So I need to reexamine my life to make it better for me and putting music, the gym, would make me happier. Thank you for reading.

Twists and turns

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

Life is full of twists and turns, so enjoy the ride the best you can, know that God is with you, so shine through the night.
