Sunday, January 27th, 2008 @ 11:42pm - probably the worst thing i've seen on tv
|
so i got off of work early today. so i get home and i realize that i can watch a new episode of the simpsons. the episode starts off with some spring cleaning and it turns into a simpsons flashback episode. i was kinda like shit. this sucks. it only got worse. to comepenstate for no one on the simpsons getting any older, homer and marge now had bart in the 90's. as usual with a flashback episode, homer and marge break up. but this time homer is depressed about it that he starts a grunge rock band. like ok. no. this sucks. the van houten's are fighting and it turns into kurt saying to his wife i saw this pic on the interent of you cheating on me. i should find out in 6 hours". thats bullshit. dude when i was a kid homer and marge grew up like the beatles. now their my age. homer makes a shit load of seinfeld refrences. i was so disgusted. but at the same time. maybe i'm just upset that i'm old now. like bart simpsons use to be my role model. now i have more in common with oto. or hell in a few years homer. jesus. why can't magie just go to daycare. and bart turn 11. and lisa get that stick out of her ass.

so the last time we spoke i had just gotten back from rock city. that was in October. a long time ago now. i’ve started buying art prints on eBay to put around my room. I’ve also come up with an idea about how to decorate my upstairs portion. 1 wall will have a mural i’m going to paint on it. using acrylic, if thats not a good kind of paint to use, let me know. i want it to look fabulous. the other side is a secret. you’ll just have to come over to watch it. I guess my mind has been expanding more in the metaphysical lately. most of my ideas are about my body and how i can have my thinking self touch my animal self. sounds weird dosent it. it is. i am. myself and luis bought guitar hero I and II as well as two wireless guitars, so that we may thrash. i was better than Luis, but i’m never home, so he’s been practicing alot more than me and has come quite more proficient. i'll get back my title of being most badass at home soon enough. we're going to buy a washing machine this week. cause i'm sick of dropping off my laundry and paying at the poop hole. exceedingly far out the poop hole. so we'll have the luxury of going to the kitchen and making our clothes both fresh and clean. whats been going on with work. the same, its been busier and more moneyier because of all the holiday parties we're taking care of. on the other side. i've started my bartender training under my good friend marc. I was already kinda doing it at work, but now i'm like, official. as soon as marc gives me the go ahead, i'm going to start throwing my name in the hat. i mean, if i need nyc bar experience to get a job in a nyc bar, well, i've got it. and its not something I'm going to get better at by thinking of. i need to jump the fuck in there. like into the rumble pit of halo. i mean i started doing it last week and i had a FANTASTIC TIME. HIGH FIVE! it was really everything i thought it would be. I got my friend drunk. she is now in my memory forever for the 1st person I've ever gotten drunk. i also got this friend of a birthday girl, sloppy drunk. like she was walking on mars drunk. like captain, dat land luber aint got her "sea legs" drunk. it was awesome. if you're in the neighborhood please come by tribe and experience me learning. i would love to see you and love to get you what you want the way you want it. and as usual, myself and luis have been getting drunk and merry. whats going on with school. BOREDOM. its the last week and i don't have like a huge list of shit to do. so its cool. i so hope my next term is better. i think i'm going to take another english class. cause now i would be in foreign literature, and that prospect excites me very much. thats been my life in a nutshell since i last wrote you.
LOVE
ELFALCON!

Thursday, October 18th, 2007 @ 4:15pm - I'm GOING TO ROCK CITY!
|
Thats Right Folks I'm going to Detroit tomorrow. I'm going to see my friend Sera whom many of you haven't met. She is awesome, she lives there but is a true new yorker, so i'm taking my love of filthy subways and smelly streets to her since she is so home sick. I'm taking my camera rest assured, so check my FLICKR page. the link is still located right below my blog subjects, or just take a look now. its very interesting. General update: School is going fine, my classes are alot more boring than they were last semester, but thats the fualt of my professors. I still love business. Work is going swimmingly. The one person i didn't enjoy working with got the axe. Myself and another person high fived each other. So exciting. The other day Luis asked me if i was going to complete the hat trick this weekend. In other words would i be going for my third straight saturday night blacking out due to heavy alcohol comsumption. I don't know is the reply. I'm definetly going to be drinking copious amounts in Detroit, I don't want to be like out of control though. Well not like out of control negatively. I'm going to play it by ear. In other news HALO 3 is the shit. I FINISHED THE FIGHT! I sad now. Thank god for XBOX live. I love killing dudes who live thousands of miles from me. Silly accents so sillier when the person is angry you shot them in the face.

Thursday, September 6th, 2007 @ 3:44pm - Party info
|
The first Party will be held on Saturday september 8th, 2007 @ Barcade in brooklyn's Williamsburg. Barcade is a bar i like alot it has lots of good quality beers from around the world that are constantly being rotated. Beer is cheap too. Like $5 dollars. YAY. Barcade is located @ BARCADE. Which is to say 3 blocks down from the lorimer stop on the L train/ G train. If you get off on the L arriving from manhatten get of at the back of the train, if from brooklyn, the front. from the G it doesn't matter, its the exit with the candy booth. So festivities will start at 9:30 P.M. EST. YOu can get there whenever the fuck i don't care as long as you show up and enjoy time with me as i get older. my number is 718-737-5285. You can also bring whomever you want(as long as she is cute). The more the merrier.

Thursday, September 6th, 2007 @ 3:28pm - HAHA. I've come up with a perfect solution.
|
As you all know my birthday is monday. And i want all my friend to come out bowling on monday, but alot of us have serious jobs that they have to wake up early to go to on tuesday. An alternative would be to have my get together at barcade in williamsburg, why there? cause i like it there, really delicious beers, a cool and chill crowd and most importantly, cause its my birthday and I DECIDE! BOHAHAHAHAHA. anyway, i want everyone to have a good time, as well as myself having a good time and new and interesting party like i do every year. So what will happen is, i will have my party on saturday at Barcade. And i will have my party on monday at bowlmor. I will have my cake, and drink it to. Invites will be sent out as soon as i'm done with rainbow six.

Sunday, September 2nd, 2007 @ 10:37pm - general update as of september 2nd

the first thing to report is the most important. Birthday is in 7 Days. Thats Right Snitches. THE EVENT OF THE YEAR! I'll be turning old this year so the celebrations won't be as festive, but it is me, so there will be festivities. I'm want everyone to get together and not only celebrate me, but i want all my friends to get together and celebrate knowing each other. That will be nice. I'm going to have it at bowlmor lanes, which is on University place between 13th and 12th, its like a block from Union Square. monday night is bowl unlimited from 12am-4am, that deal is $20. Thats a good deal with how expensive bowling in the city is expensive.
As to what i'm acually feeling about turning 25, i don't know. Its one of the milestone ages. Most of the people i got out of H.S. with are in they're careers. I'm in college and I have a pretty decent job. I just don't know if its what i want with my life now.
School just started again. Its something to look forward to. I work at night so my day life is kinda boring. School will fill that up I hope. I'm taking all business classes, which I enjoy very much. I like learning about spreadsheets and pyscograhpic segmentation. Its interesting. Anyway I just bought all my books, alot of money.
I met this girl awhile ago. We hit it off had a good time talking on the phone and things. But for some reason she kept standing me up, and not responding to other forms of communication. I like her and I want to hang with her, but I have to start having more respect for myself, and that kind of things is not good for me. I don't deserve to get stood up ever, and someone whom is feeling me wouldn't do it. I told her as much and stop calling her, then she text me yesterday and is like whats going on. we trade some text then nothing from her. WTF. whatevers. I gave her lots of chances, i don't feel like feeling umimportant right now.
I have to go meet nicolle now. I'll write a part two later.

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007 @ 4:26pm - my week in review.
|
so on friday morning my boss calls me. he's like rob, one of your co-workers is stuck somewhere and they can't get to the city, you want to work their shift? its 6p.m. to 4a.m. Now working a ten hour shift is no big deal to me, i work an 14 hour shift everyweek. the thing was i had told him on thursday i would work a double shift on monday. meaning i would work two 14+hours in two days. And I was working on saturday at 10:30-6. so within 4 days i would be working 46hours. motherfucking gangsta. but as its wednesday you guys can see i survived. just barely though, yesterday was quite trying. my body was hating on me MAD hard. headache my backhurt, i felt like i was dying or some shit. 12hrs of sleep then a two hour nap change all that. praise jesus. oh i had a nice lunch with a foxy lady on tuesday.

Friday, July 27th, 2007 @ 4:01pm - School Work and BS update
|
ok so cool. I've been working at the bar for a little bit now. like since February. its do sent seem that long for me cause i only really work three days a week, and my total hours are like 30-33. which is not bad. i make enough to pay the rent... unfortunately I've gotten a little bit behind because i now have so much free time, and i work with people who like the sauce just as much as me. that means I've been spending my rent money. DO'H. shame on my black ass. so now i owe mat Kerwin a little more than i want to. so I'm taking as many shifts as i can at work. which means tonight i'm working from six to close. then tomorrow from 10:30 till 6. then on Sunday from 12pm till 2am. thats right. that means that out of the next 72 hours, I'll be working 32 hours. fuck yeah. but i should be getting more non-insane shifts soon. we're opening a new bar and I'll be getting shifts up there, or at one of our other bars on 27th and park. hopefully i can work all nights, cause thats where the $ is. on to school. ok. so you all may remember that i passed all my spring classes. but what some of you didn't know was i failed most of last fall's classes. i started off with 5 dropped two, failed two, passed one. so even though i was really successful last semester my gpa was kinda, well, alot whack. its 1.73. BMCC says that all full time students have to have at least a 1.75, so i kinda got the boot. BUT. i appealed on the fact that in my fall semester i was new to the school, i had alot going on, and i wasn't prepared or experienced enough, like i made a bad schedule and shit. so they said cool, you can stay, BUT you're on probation. that just means that i have to do well this semester, but i know what kinda guy i am now so i know how to plan for it. My classes are only on three days, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. no early classes, cause we all know me and A.M. don't really get along. so I'm really excited to be going back to school and really excited about earning more money. if i have enough money by the time school starts I'm going to go to the uk the week before school starts. Wish me LUCK!

I've finished school for this semester and my gpa is a 2.70. Which is not bad and not great. Its is passing so thats all that matters. I only work 3 days a week so i'm kinda relaxing.

Monday, February 19th, 2007 @ 12:01pm - My Three Faces.
|
What do you do? Do you Become a Sponge and let everyone else's emotions take over you. Do you stay true to yourself and have no one understand you? I've always gone down the later. I don't want everyone to understand me. Its impossible. I don't want people to come to the conclusion that I'm 2D either. I have hopes and joys like everyone else. I am a human being. I can't pour my soul out to everyone I meet.
There are aspects of any person. That means that there are three Roberts. One(1) The Robert who is both his physical makeup plus his conscious self. All of his experiences, thoughts, hopes, scars, future. Two(2) The Robert that Robert think he is, what he thinks he looks likes, sound likes, his Id. The part of Robert that will die when his body dies. Three(3) The Robert that everyone sees and hears, talks with and discusses. What other people think about him. That Robert will be the Robert that will be left behind when he dies.
Having said that, its clear to me that no one knows Robert #2. I mean no one ever can fully. Robert #2 doesn't exist to people whom see Robert #3. Its the difference between a baby and a senile old man. Perhaps those two beings are one and the same at different stages, but its almost impossible to fathom. As it is with me.
The image on the wall is not the essence. It is the absence of the essence. What you hear when you speak to me is only ten percent of my thoughts. You only know me a fraction, and you judge me harshly. So be it. I will try and let more people in. See whats rooting in my cellar. I won't survive life anyway. Might as well do something positive.

Monday, February 12th, 2007 @ 12:59pm - mom's cooking
|
I am extremely broke this week. like 2 dollars in my Coffer. You really shouldn't call a Coffer a Coffer when its only that much money. So I've only got 2 dollars in my change purse. So I decided I had to make a Decision, and make it quick. I WENT BACK TO QUEENS! That's right as I write this I'm sitting on a belly full of my moms cooking, and confectionery. Its awesome. Other than that I've got the day off due to the holiday. I plan to finish watching Roswell Season 1, disc one. Then its more Grey's Anatomy. I am a man despite what many may believe. I'm off. My moms cooking is moving through me like... something fast. I was going to say hot and fast, but that's too much info.

Sunday, February 4th, 2007 @ 2:31pm - School and a general update
|
Hello everyone its been alittle while. School started last Monday, and already its been a tumultuos week. I am currently enrolled in five classes this term. Marketing 100, Business Law, English Lit, Art Intro, and Speech. I didn't want to take speech, but every single person enrolled at BMCC has to take it no matter what. I gotta saw I'm actually enjoying all of my classes.
My english teacher is a more aggressive more eccentric Jeff Goldblum. needless to say its my favorite class. My law class is going to be very interesting. The Professor has a pass rate of 95%. so i'm good. Its going to be lots of discussion and little writing, he puts all class appropriate notes on the web page, which reminds me i have to do that for Marketing now. Art is fun, cause my teacher is of course FLAMING. I have to go to pearl paints of something to pick up supplies tomorrow. I have a three hour break in between english and marketing of both Monday and Wednesday, from 1p.m. on Monday till 4, and from 1:40 on Wednesday till 4. so if you got time give me a call, I'll be studying sleeping both always bored.
I'm looking forward to my speech class because I like to talk in front of strangers, its exciting, it only sucks that we're giving introduction speeches starting tuesday evening, the class meets at 7:15 to 8:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so everyone won't be strangers for long. My mom gave me money to get all my text books this year. Thank You Ma. Last semester that was a problem for me, as I was unable to get alot of books which led me to feel both depressed about being poor, and a fool cause I didn't have the proper material. Oh well.
Work is going alright, I've been nicer to everyone in my opion, which dosent mean much since its relative, but hey I do what i can. I just bought a GBA SP and Currently playing Castlevania, and I just EBAYED Metroid Fusion, which is a very hot game. Oh, I've been an Ebay fool recently. Its awesome. I just got all six burger kings Star Wars watches. I'm going to wear TWO on EACH WRIST! I'M FLYING.
I've also been watching Grey's Anatomy, and Season 1 of Rome. Grey's is a great show. I know its for women. Its also for people with a heart. Which I am. Despite what some may believe. Ok I have to shower, thanks for reading, I love You. I also have a daily planner, I love it, it helps get me motivated.
current mood: cheerful

All of Our Memories will fade to dust. I wonder will the sons of distants stars know the warmth that was us? Will the cold that is dying know how we embraced? I do not know. But I imagine in my loving you my Passion will burn in song on till the last eve.BUT remember, all of our memories die and we will fade to dust.

Friday, November 24th, 2006 @ 10:56am - first semester. i put it down.
|
first semester. i put it down.
well. my first six months of school are almost done. i'm currently enjoying a 2 day respite from classes. first question would be is it hard. yes and no. its not hard in the fact that there is work i have to do and i have to make an effort to learn anything, thats only the case in accounting and math, my english business and hisotry classes are EASY. hard is the part where i have to work the closing shift which is from 4-12 at work then go to my accounting class which is at 8 on friday morning, thats whats hard, its hard dozing in class and worrying if your professor caught on. and scary, like what if i'm not learning what i'm supposed to be learning. like what if my busy day sets me through the motions but i won't be taking away from it. what if i go to class and by the time i get on the train i've forgotten everything in my tired stupor. thats what was hard. and to be honest i put the doubts unsunder! HOLLA. i've gotten nothing less than a b on all papers and exams i've taken. except math, but thats another blog. so no, i have learned, i finally know how to write a comprehensive essay. i can now write my thoughts down as i've always wanted, AND be understood. haha, i know you guys were saying you say stuff alot, and its all mumbles, i'm changed trust me. The second question people will ask is, do i like it. YES. i find it exhilarating to be around people who are just like me who want to change like i do. and the best part is they're mostly ghetto, and they'll drop right into a discussion of freud, or a comparison of the manifesto and dexter jeffries. i think i've learned to leave my preconcieved notions at home or to just forget them. i'm no better than the hood person sitting across from me, more than just the fact that they are sitting across from me. my whole problem with my fellow race is that they didn't seem to want to learn, and thats not true. i was being a hipocrite in everything i believed in. thankfully i'm in colledge and i can learn still at my advanced age. i want my work load to get more strenous though, its been along time since i've challenged myself intellectually. its way past time i became the man everyone thinks i can be. hopefully i can find some sort of energy drink without caffine that can help me stay aloft. toherwise its straight to hades. i have to sign up for my second semester on december fourth and i'm really looking forward to tweeking my schedule, and taking harder classes than the intro stuff. mostly i'm hopeing to get the credits i need so i can be with the girl i love.

Sunday, July 23rd, 2006 @ 10:42pm - i'm back from the west
|
howdy. i just got home, well a couple of hours ago. i took a nap. jetlag and all that. i had a good time in Utah. more like a great time. it was really a nice place. well that makes it sound like pitstop. it was a fab city. everyone was really relaxed. oh. i went to see the REAL SALT LAKE. Re-al. they're the mls team for utah. i wanted to see a soccer match so i went to that one, it was only 16bucks. so i'm waiting to get into the gate and these little soccer guys walk by, they must have been like 10 or 11. one of them looks at me and says. "Hi", then the other kid chimes in "hey homie". I simple replied with a "hey guys". I wanted to say thats border line racist, but i didn't. i let them have their fun. So i got to slc on monday night and i was nasceous from staying awake so long. kelly picked me up, i havn't seen her in a year. it was great to see her. we drove to her house, which was really large, she lives by herself, a place like that would be like 1400 here. kelly pays like five salt lake bucks. kelly has a ton of books everywhere. thats what kelly is awesome. kelly then showed me around slc, took me to the dollar theatre. movies for a dollar! we saw MI3. horrible. but i had a good time, then kelly showed me her job. she works at this independent book store that looks like its someones house and they simply put up lots and lots of bookshelves. it was a beautiful place. i liked to open a bookstore like that. there use to be a bookstore like that in ridgewood. it was called the bookkingdom, its where i bought my 1st sw books. they would special order them for me. it was neat. but yeah. getting away from ny was nice. seeing the west and mountains, and bodies of water surrounded on all sides by land was neat, it exact opposite of ny. oh kelly, i'm happy that you let me stay and you let me visit, but i feel horrible that i took advantage of you and i was a burden. i'm sorry. you helped me out alot, more than i can say. if that makes it any better. i miss you.

Wednesday, July 19th, 2006 @ 9:02pm - UTAH, MOUTAINS, SALT, 1 BLACK PERSON
|
ok so far i've seen moutains for the 1st time, lakes, weird seagulls, mindy, but no black people. wtf. no i'm kidding, there is a college, and where there is a college there are sports, and where there are sports, you'll find talented negros getting by. salt lake is really really really neat. its nice its cozy, but not dumb like you would expect the west to be. the people here are nice. even though i get that, omhg his skin look often. I ate at sonic burger today, was great, kelly also took me to the GREAT SALT LAKE. not just salt lake. THE GREAT SALT LAKE. it was neat, we walked in the salt lake, and there were thousands of these little insects hovering over the rocks near the beach. it was GROSS. but we hiked up our pants and walked to this little reaf thing, i'be got lots of pictures, kelly has an awesome car and a GREAT house. like all nyc apartments are the suck. its really weird, being in this kinda enviroment is nice. i mean i love 5ave and 21st street, but utah has a certain charm as well. no the mormons havn't converted me yet, its all good. so far kelly has shown me around and we're going hiking soon, oh got to watch some freaks and geeks at her house after her gf's stopped by. they were talking about dildos and such, i really couldn't offer much conversation. oh well. i'm at her AWESOME book store. THE KINGS ENGLISH. it looks like someone had a nice house and decided to put book shelves everywhere, they make barnes and noble seem so big and shitty. i'm thinking about quitting and working at a smaller book store. well thinking is something i've havn't been doing lately. fucking putting shit in motion is what i've been about lately. holla. Happy B-day Adam
