Fathers Day

Fathers day, a day which I could easily ponder on things of the past and allow my happiness and motivation to dwindle down, on a day that I'm sure my brothers are not quiet as enthusiastic for as I am.

On a day which I have experienced the highs and lows from the point of view of the son, Father's Day this year is a very good day. Regardless of the fact that my earthy biological father was laid to rest years ago, I am blessed to say that I have an awesome step-father, an awesome grandfather who has acted as a father figure to me over the years, and a very gracious Heavenly Father who has helped throughout the years. All of these individuals have been there for me regardless of my screw-ups or mistakes, which, let me tell you, I've made plenty of.

But anyway, Happy Fathers Day to all of the fathers out there! And also Happy Fathers Day to all of the single moms, the grandparents, or just anyone who has acted as a father figure in a child or adults life. Bless you.

The Job Hunt, Goes On...

Oh the joys of trying to find a decent job. I need something to become a career. I am considering the option of going back to school to obtain a four year degree, however, I really don't want to go to school, get into more debt and then have another degree for which I repeat this retarded cycle of hunting for a job that seems not to exist. It's getting old.

I applied for a simple job that I thought would be nice to have just to help pass the time, so I'm doing something semi productive with my life. Well, I got an email from that company today, and basically they say "no". Of course, that was a paraphrase.

I'm currently on an estimated 20 minute hold with the TSA help-desk to see if they can give me an update on the job that I've been waiting to hear back from for the past 3, almost 4 months. This is frustrating.

A New Poem, kinda crappy though.

Well, Blogger readers.... I decided to post a new poem that I just kinda threw together in a while 2 minutes. Thus, the crappiness (yeah, I know that is not a word) of it. Not to mention it was wrote at 2:51 am, so yeah, bare with me.
I think I shall call it,.....

If I Could Do Anything by Nathan Berry 2010

If I could do anything, anything I wanted to,
I would run away to a land far, far away.
A place in my mind, somewhere imaginary,
Somewhere peaceful and full of my dreams.

If I could do anything, anything I wanted to,
I would dream of your face every night,
And walk with you every day, by the sea.

If I could do anything, anything I wanted to,
I would get carried away looking at the stars,
And drift off into old age perfectly happy.

If I could do anything, anything I wanted to,
I would sit here all day, wishing my life away,
Wishing that the dreams would come true,
Only to keep on dreaming, and living, for a better day.

Work, Work, Work...

Work, Work, Work...

So, yesterday I found a new place to apply to work at. It is a company that has a physical location in Hickory which you can apply to work at, but, you can also apply to work at home! How awesome would it be to have a decent job where you worked at home and had good benefits? Pretty dang awesome, that's how awesome.

Whats more? I went with my grandpa Bryant today to price at job for a local doctor at his house today. So, I'll have a few days of work from that coming up before too long.

Tomorrow, I get to help my old friends and former neighbors, The Blair's, a little bit. I will most likely be simply taking Mary to Hickory and wherever else she wants to go. As well as anything else she may want to have me do for her.

And on Saturday, I will be going to Rockhill, South Carolina with two friends to do a moving job which will take all day long. This should provide a pretty penny for me and my two friends who I choose to help out.

Also, last week I collected a small payment from a web-site client who I am still working for.

Also, I don't know how fruitful it will be, but I have an aunt who wants me to do a little painting for her at her house and a grandmother who wants some stuff done too.

Oh the joys of actually having a little money coming in! WAHOO!

This Week...

So, this week has been an interesting week. I started off my week by going camping on Sunday night. On Monday I helped my grandpa as usual, then we tore his lawnmower apart (partly) to fix something, and then I had a mini-cookout with the family. On Tuesday I went to my cousins piano recital, which she rocked. She is a very talented 'piano player' (Was going to use the technical term, but it seems that my bad spelling gets worse at 2:15 am). Okay, anyway, on Wednesday I have no clue what I done, on Thursday I went to my brothers to have him help me change my brakes, almost ended up having to make a random trip to Mountain City, Tennessee, but I avoided it! YAY. Also, my day got ate away by sitting randomly at my grandma's up there. On Friday I went swimming, had a good time, and chilled with my friends in the evening. On Saturday, I woke up and mowed the lawn and then went to my other lil cousins dance recital. I enjoyed it. I know that some people didn't approve of the music or types of dance that some of the kids and teenagers done, but I say 'what the heck', it's just all in fun. I enjoyed it, and my cousin is a talented dancer. And, well, I watched a very screwed up movie that I enjoyed this evening... yeah, crazy movie. That's all you need to know. And here I sit, typing a blog for no real reason, not wanting to go to bed, yet... I know I need to sleep because I'm tired and I have to get up for church in the morning.

... Oh, and I'm still not sure if I'll make it to my nieces 1st birthday party tomorrow, I'm leaning towards the not making it part though. I didn't go to my nephews 1st a few weeks ago, so eh, I'm a bad uncle all the way around I suppose? Oh well. That's life.

Sometimes in Life...

Sometimes in life it is not about what you want for yourself, but it is about what is meant to be for you and your life. Sometimes we have to put ourselves on auto-pilot and allow our destiny to take us where it sees fit.


When we have goals and dreams, and have no clue what to do to get there, what do we do? We do nothing. What does this accomplish? NOTHING.


Just let life take you for a ride if your up for it. You'll be amazed where you go and what you see and do.

Life is too short to waste away doing trivial things.

Reading this blog entry just took away several seconds of your life that you'll never get back. HA! What now? Take that my dear readers.

Yeah, this was random. This is what happens when I'm bored and trying on my blog at 2:12am.

Hum, I think I'll post a blog with a purpose in a second, since this one was a waste! :)

Life Goals/Dreams

What do I Really Want in Life?


What do I really want? -Well, I really only want a couple things out of life. I would like to have a good job, preferably in the area of aviation. After this, my desire is to own a house and some land get my pilots license finished up, and have a family of my own someday. These are really my main desires in life; but, they seem like hopeless dreams at the moment. Yeah.

June.

Well, it is officially June. One year ago, this month, I took a trip that feels like it was just yesterday. I went to Mexico, where I stayed for three weeks. I really kinda miss it there to be honest. It was an experience that I'm sure to never forget. I wish I had the money to go back, and to also go some other places!

Well, world via blogger, Happy June, happy June!
