Time is precious

Do you need time?

Introduction- Everyone needs time. Time is one of those things you either have on your side or you need more of it. When time is gone it is gone. You can’t get it back.

For example, when I was in college I was a procrastinator. I used to do papers the night before they were due and fortunately I received a B on them. So deadlines are something to deal with, as they come up I used to do some of my best work under the gun.

If I could do it all over, I would start on the papers sooner so I could relax and know I got them done right without stress of being under the gun.

I need time to figure out my next move. I want to start playing music again, but I have so much going on such as doordash. I need to pay for the car I drive by doing doordash.

One of these days soon I will show up at an open mic and put myself out there. It is so much fun to play music and sing. That is what I need more time to do.

In conclusion- I need more time to figure out how I am going to be able to do Doordash and play music. At the open mics, I need to be patient and wait for them to call me up so I can perform. Maybe get there early and leave early so I can do Doordash afterwards., that is the best thing. Thank you for reading.

Hopefully more music, more writing

What will your life be like in three years?

What will my life be like in three years. Hopefully by then, I am making music with people, who play bass and guitar because I am a drummer and I also do a little singing and I write lyrics. Hopefully, I can do something with my talent because that makes me feel good. I need to put myself out there.

Hopefully I still write and share all my experiences with the friends I have made here. Everyone is so nice that I have talked to. You guys are all wonderful. So I will most likely be writing still on WordPress aka jetpack. It is a great way to communicate with the world.

Hopefully, by then I am able to put my degree to work for me. If I was not disabled it would have worked out for me, but since I am disabled it doesn’t. I need to try anyway to see if something can happen with the degree I received. Back in 2007 it didn’t work out, but now it is a different time, let’s see if it will work. Thank you for reading.

My day is underwear and shirt day, where everyone wears their underwear and shoes and a shirt.

Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate.

It is hot in the summer, especially around June and July. Well, my holiday will be just wear your underwear and shirt and shoes and go about your day. It is called Underwear and shirt day because when it is over a hundred degrees outside you don’t want to put on pants and sweat like crazy. Also the humidity combined with the heat is almost unbearable so my day makes you feel cool. Underwear and shirt day would be welcomed especially on the hottest day of the year, which is July 21st. So that is my holiday maybe if people don’t wear underwear, someone can buy a pair for them and then they can celebrate the holiday. Thank you for reading.

Websites

What are your favorite websites?

Introduction- today I am going to be discussing my favorite websites. Everyone has a favorite website.

My favorite websites are: Google, you can ask any question and it will give you an answer. Maybe a different answer than you were anticipating, but at least it is an answer. I also like a lot of news websites, such as Aol.com, MSNBC news, yahoo, YouTube for music. I also sometimes read the onion,and CNN, especially for worldly news. I also like Craigslist if I want to buy something used and cheap. I also read Tucson News Now to find out what is going on in the city I live in.

In conclusion- I discussed many websites that I frequently use on a daily basis, especially Tucson News Now because I need to know what is going on in the city, such as is it raining. I am sure everyone has favorite websites they go to, these are mine. Thank you for reading l.

Screaming loudly

This picture was taken at my old apartment. It is to represent the night.

Sometimes usually on the weekends, but usually late at night at my new apartment. I will be laying in bed and hear a woman screaming at the top of her voice saying, I fucking hate you, loud; The reason why I am posting this is because I would hate to be the guy on the receiving end of her screams. She has a good set of lungs on her to scream that loud.

I think she is pregnant so I have to empathize with her. If I was pregnant, I would be screaming too, especially at the guy who did it to me. I am glad I am not a woman, especially with a disability that would be tough. Thank you for reading.

The year I was shot in the head

Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live?

Introduction-many people have a favorite year, where things are going very well. Many people have fond memories of certain years.

If I could re-live any year in my life it would be 1988, when I was 13 years old. That is the year the cousin took me down to the river and shot me in the head.

I would tell him no, I don’t want to go down to the river to shoot guns up in the air to bring in the New Year.

He had a way of pestering me until I gave in, but knowing what I know now, I would be better off walking to my grandma’s house from his house. He always used to cry to get his way, but it would not work now. I would rather have taken a beating by him, than get shot in the head by him. So basically I would not go either I would have called my dad to pick me up or walk to my grandma’s house.

Being shot in the head has its perks, but few, better to be physically normal so I am not limited in what I can do.

In conclusion-if I could re-live any year of my life, it would be when I was shot in the head. It was 1988, when I was 13 years old. It was a long time ago and it still affects me. That year will always resonate in my life forever because I am disabled as a result of that year. If only I could re-live it, I could change my whole life, that would be amazing, but for now just press on and hope for the best. Thank you for reading.

My disability

What’s something you believe everyone should know.

Introduction-there are many types of disabilities, ranging from physical, to mental. My disability is not easily distinguished because people in Tucson don’t even know what I have until I tell them that I was shot in the head.

People are so easy to say I have cerebral palsy, or that I am developmentally delayed without knowing my true diagnosis that I have, which is traumatic brain injury. I wish everyone knew I have a traumatic brain injury because they would not be so easy to judge me. Plus I wish everyone knew I was shot in the head because they would stop guessing what my condition is. If everyone knew what I had, this would make it a little easier to approach me. They would not be scared of me, when I walk with a gimp or have my left arm on my stomach.

In conclusion- I wish everyone knew I was shot in the head and have a traumatic brain injury. This would make my life easier because people look at me very weird when I walk. Thank you for reading.

Acting young

What does it mean to be a kid at heart?

To be a kid at heart means acting and thinking like a kid. Also, it is being curious about the world and getting pleasure from the smaller things in life. It is in liking and doing things that are for young people, such as listening to metal music even though you are fifty or sixty years old. Or going to a club and dancing the whole night, even though you are of an older adult age. Even though, you are old you still feel young and have a lot of energy. So it is in essence, doing and acting young for your age. Thank you for reading.

Three wishes

You have three magic genie wishes, what are you asking for?

If I had three genie wishes:

The first wish would be to make me physically normal, where I could use my left arm again and walk without a gimp. Also, I would not forget things so much,. If only I could be how I used to be when I was 12 years old.

Next wish, would be for a billion dollars because then I could do as I please write all I want. I could play music all I want. I would not have to get up and go to work every night, if I had a billion dollars.

Last wish, to be a professional musician, plus a writer, where I would write my own lyrics and make my own songs, which is what I do, is write lyrics. If only, this would happen. Thank you for reading.

The cousin who shot me in the head.

Describe a family member.

Growing up, when I was very young. He was my best friend. We used to do everything together. Watch movies together, go on hikes together, we used to share our deepest secrets with each other. He also got me in trouble a lot. We used to steal mail, steal from stores, start fires, and also start more fires.

Until, that dreaded day. It was a cold windy night. He said, “Point the gun at my head and press the trigger.” I couldn’t do it, so he took the gun away from me and pointed the gun at my head and it went off. We thought the gun was not loaded.

In conclusion- this man is a monster. He never said he was sorry for what he did to me or gave me any money for my pain and suffering. Like I said in another post, he got away with the whole thing. They let him off the hook. I still cannot believe he just got away with something so awful that affects me so profoundly. Thank you for reading.
