Moved my blog to a place where I can fully customize every last inch of it by coding the HTML and CSS as I'm blogging just went live with it today so here it is. Hope you all enjoy it and enjoy watching my webdesign skills develope further
I had a venting moment today while at work. During said moment I went on another rant, and being that I haven't had one of those in awhile, at least not one that was worth blogging, I figured why not blog tonight.
SOOOOOO....I just am getting so sick and tired of the absolute lack of appreciation people get these days. I'm not talking about anyone in particular of course, so no one take this to heart please. But anyways you bust your ass day in and day out and for what...yeah yeah yeah we get paid but to some, at least to me anyways, that's really not enough. I'd like to hear good job, or at least a thanks. What kinda world do we live in where you have to ask someone to thank you for something...seriously WHAT THE FUCK!
Vent number two.... Ok soooo.... yeah another problem I see with this world is everyone has to have everything right now...What happen to patience is a virtue. Do we really have so few virtuous people left in the world that it doesn't even matter anymore. "We live in a fast food world" is what I hear a lot when I bring this one up. So the fuck what, I mean I've been told I have a supernatural, scary amount of patience. I really do I know I vent on occasion who doesn't really, but is it really that hard to wait that extra few mins I mean if you're going to get what you want and need anyway why rush it I will never understand it. I wish I could do something to instill more patience in people I really do it would solve a lot of problems reduce massive amounts of stress and just help people live basically healthier lives because they wouldn't be rushing every where. Here's some food for thought we live in such a high paced world today that we actually breath faster then people did in the past, and this causes your body to not get enough oxygen in the blood, causing the brain to get less oxygen, causing headaches, dizziness, nausea, and fatigue. Lack of oxygen to the brain can also cause brain damage over time....So in a sense we are causing our own illness' simply because of the way we breath now because of the high pace of life these days. So next time you have some of these symptoms instead of grabbing for that pill bottle take a minute slow down relax sit back and let things happen as they do and take slow deep breathes. I've tried this myself and it does help you will feel noticeably different less stressed and much more relaxed when the body gets the oxygen it needs.
Vent number 3 of today yeah I'm still going. So a friend of mine had like serious hots for this gorgeous chick right. He's a great guy, not ugly but not like super attractive. Only thing really wrong with his appearance is his teeth are jacked up, like seriously its messed up lol. Anyways this girl who he knew through a friend told their mutual friend that she was interested in him right. So their friend gives the chick my friends number they text for a few days and decide to exchange pics and maybe meet up and not thinking he sends her a pic of him smiling. She hasn't spoken to him since. My friend and the girl he liked's mutual friend where talking the other day and he tells me that she told him the girl he liked is no longer interested cause he doesn't have nice teeth.....TEETH WTF!!!! How vain have we become seriously that despite the fact that a person has a great heart and a kind soul that the slightest imperfection and someone is so turned off from that person they can't even be bothered to text....not speak in person face to face but not even text....REALLY!! I mean come on girls you all say "Ooohh I wish I could meet a nice guy that will take good care of me and yada yada yada", but when Mr. Nice guy comes by and has some bad teeth due to a health issue and not bad hygiene he's sent packing..And why is this here's my theory. Women don't really want Mr. Nice guy not at all the want Mr. Pretty guy whether or not Mr. Pretty guy is a nice guy or not they don't really care as long as he looks nice. NOW there is one exception to this theory Mr. Nice and Rich guy it doesn't matter what he looks like he's nice aka push over/door mat and rich and therefore will spend obscene amounts of money on a girl to keep her happy.
It Just disgusts me that these are the things that our world is coming to or has been at for many many years I'm not exactly a looker ya know I have glasses My teeth aren't perfect and I'm not muscular I'm a "NERD". When I was in high school getting an attractive woman to even look at me was like pulling teeth from a rabid wombat. And as far as my previous rants/vents in this post People seriously for your own health just slow down and I promise you that you will feel better then you have in years without some fancy drug to do it for you. You'll sleep better you'll live and love longer and laugh harder. And appreciate the people around you no matter how small the things they do for you are you would be amazed at how far a small thank you or pat on the back or nice job can take someones shitty day and make it a good one. So I have a challenge for anyone that has stuck around this far Seriously try these things that I am talking about Beautiful woman talk to that nerdy guy that is crushing on you, you may find out you have alot in common at least as friends, impatient people slow down start with your breathing and move up from there. Thats all for tonight its late I just hope at least one person reads this and realizes that I may sound like a bitter man angry at the world but I'm not exactly the opposite I love the world and the people that are in it and would just like to see everyone live as peacefully as I do.
So I was just thinking today and You know when I was a kid if you wanted to get yourself out there on the internet you had to learn HTML atleast and build yourself a website then came blogging. Which still used some html and css and other such codeing that you "could" learn to make your blog look a lil more interesting.
Then came Myspace which allowed for you to use HTML and CSS to edit your page and make cool backgrounds to which people responded by simply cutting and pasting someone else's work. And now we have Facebook .... no need to learn anything just create an account and boom start putting up your life on the internet pictures songs text all that fun stuff right.
Now it is next to impossible to find a free web hosting site (anyone else remember geocities). I had a webpage that I maintained for 10 yrs and then Yahoo did away with Geocities and now its gone. Grrrr...Now when I want to create a new page and play around with HTML and what not, I can't find a Free web hosting site that uses html editors its all click here drag this there wheres the fun in that.
In conclusion although I like most people use social networking and I'm not saying its a bad thing by any means to do so. It has killed fun web design for people that just wanna play with it and now web design has become rampant with laziness. I know for some people its hard to learn something like HTML or JAVA or Flash so clicking and dragging to build a webpage has become a necessity for small buisness people that want to get out there but don't have time to learn but come on you would have so much more pride in your page and so much more control if you just took the time to learn even simple HTML. I know I'm Just ranting but it bugs me.
Yeah I said it, this is the last month of summer. I go back to CCC on the 25th, and I'm a little nervous about it. I was diagnosed (well re-diagnosed) with ADD this summer. Taking aderall for it. My wife says she has noticed an improvment so that's good and I've noticed that I've gotten back my ability to think outside the box and find more creative and working solutions to day to day problems.
I'm already planning on dropping and switching a class. I'm on academic probation for the second semester in a row. I need to drop english 1020 cause I don't do so well in english classes I'm no writer. I'm gonna try to pick up a history class I've always done well in them, and I have always enjoyed history.
On another note I'm taking programming logic this semester wich is great cause I've spent all this summer teaching myself C++. I'm even working on my own fully C++ game. It's only a text based choose your own adventure game but I'm enjoying the codeing of it. I became addicted to writing code and such when I started my first website with webtv and began learning HTML. Granted its not the same but I just like writing a few codes and seeing what it does. It's cool to me but I'm a nerd... Gonna try to cut back on the gaming for sure this semester I need to focus, I need to get as many A's as I can this semester. I'm also taking intro to sociology which sounds boring but I need a humanities course and that'll do it for me it's all reading and multiple choice and its online.
Should be pretty good with that.
I go back to the doctors on Sept. 1st to talk to him about whether or not I will need to up my aderall, because he said that I should know within a week or so of starting classes that it's working or not. Hopefully it will work and I will ace this semester. I think one of my problems is that I know I breezed through highschool and I keep expecting college to be the same gotta get that thought outta my head.
