Watching Movies to Expand my Mind!
I was listening to NPR, Fresh Air, a couple of days ago and was quite intrigue by a film writer by the name of Charlie Kaufman, who wrote some interesting films. As Terry Gross was interviewing him I because more and more interested in what he was talking about. Everything that he was saying was in a way the same way that I think about topics of life. So as one of my personal growth in a topic that peaked my interest I will be trying to find more information on his thought process and watching all of his movies. I’ll let yall know what I find out and how the whole experience has changed my outlook on a specific part of life.
My Passion: Reading and Writing!
Whenever it came to finding my passions I always thought that I needed the most extreme and exciting hobby in order for my life to be considered amazing. As I told people of what I wanted to do in my life I expressed an interest in something that I thought that they might find to be out of this world or that I was over an achiever. I wonder now as I sit in front of my laptop screen why I went to such troubles to please other people.
I Really do Appreciate you Baby!
This next person that I am writing about for the appreciation section is my girlfriend. We have been dating for 10 months and all I can say is that it has been a magical ride so far… We met in a cocktail bar while my friend was visiting from out of town one of his old college friends. My friend’s college friend was and obvious still is my girlfriend’s cousin. We got to chatting about the typical topics and even made a bet over whether a gimlet was a cocktail or not (which she won the bet). We have been together ever since that and the relationship is still blossoming each and everyday that we are together.

Rick’s Music Gig and Much Much More!
This is the first of many articles categorized appreciation. I will be writing about people who inspire me and who I truly appreciate for what they have done for me and my growth as a human being. So here we go and I do hope that yall enjoy this part of the blog.
I’ve known this guy for 8.5 years and I have seen him grow into a great man. My friend Rick has recently started playing his guitar and singing with his friend for a little over a month at a wine bar in the city. I have been to a couple of his gigs and sees his excitement and love for singing a song that someone else has sang or something he has written.

Minnesota Trip…
I have been wanting to write this review since the first weekend I got back to Houston, but that didn’t happen. During that time I quit my job, took 5 weeks off, and been working at my new job for a month already. While being off for 5 weeks I was working out, took a fiction writing course, and just recently got power back due to Hurricane Ike. This trip review will be different from my usual ones mainly because of me simply putting it off. However, this will be a true reflection of what happened and where I am now in my thoughts and in life in general because of the trip.
