well lets see here. the beach house ended up being pretty fun. rick and i ended up going in the ocean at 3am and despite the freezing weather, the ocean was actually pretty warm. we took some photos and had some good conversation. i got to see ben who always seems to light up any room with his enthusiasm. the next day, ambre and i drove in the hellish turkey traffic to my moms house in temecula for thanksgiving. boredom seems to ooze out of everything there...which probably had something to do with us ending up at pechanga casino at midnight. THAT was an experience. fucking high school reunion. i saw so many people i havent seen in over five years. the whole thing was kind of surreal...im having a hard time finding the words to explain it.
last night before sushi hell i got to go to the trux ta poz art show at baby melt. saw some friends and met a couple swell beings. i wish i could have stayed and chatted a bit longer but all in all, it was a pretty cool show...
on another note...
the idea of starting anew at a later point in life than i had previously hoped is a tough one to overcome. better late than never :) i have received my marching order and i have finally allowed myself to be a beginner again. it is completely shocking to find out how much stress can be lifted if you just allow yourself to be a newcomer (even if you have been in the game before). the game changes.
to the person who keeps posting bulletins about people assuming they are smarter/better than others (regardless of who you are referencing)....take a look at everything youve been writing. egotism is defined as the practice of talking and thinking about oneself excessively because of an undue sense of self-importance. i am beginning to wonder if that should be stamped on your head so you can remember it. putting others down in a negative manner to objectify them and to inflate your own self-esteem is hardly something to be proud of.
HAVE SOME TACT. if you want to compare success and intellect, which is the greater man...the one who belittles others and does nothing to assist them in improving their manner; or the one who is aware of others faults and offers an open hand offering suggestions of improvement?
you did, however, get one thing correct...."It is not what you say, but what you do that defines you." the only thing that confuses me is why someone would publicly post that quote if they themselves do not utilize its advice. food for thought.
:)
here are a few photos from the beach.
