Evil Prevails..


Many say that "evil prevails when good men fail to act"... But what they should have said was.. "Evil prevails"

The night before a friend of mine went back to new York,I was at her house and during a conversation, I said that i thought people were born evil... she immediately reminded me that I once said that I thought people were born good. Why the sudden change?

Growing up, nobody teaches a child to lie, but somehow we all have done it! We are born with the ability to lie and you have to be taught to do good. For example, we have to be taught to share.

In short, evil will always prevail. No matter how much good people do, they still cant make up for the evil. Some people arent taught to be good so they jsut sink back into their evil ways. The fact of the matter is, there are more evil people in the world than good. Good people are just simply out-numbered. And there is nothing you can do about it.

"People never get the flowers while they can still smell em"


Anybody who knows me, knows that Drake is my favorite artist. Period. And i am all for letting people you admire know, that you admire them... I know the tape is edited... But I still found it pretty funny.

One more chance


I always say.. "A man gets one chance to make a mistake, and one opportunity to make it right"... What if you were given one opportunity to go back and do something differently. I guess you could say, "one redo"... Where would you go? How much of your life would you have to redo to make up for what you did?

Now dont get me wrong,I dont regret the things ive done, or didnt do. But i just always wonder, how my life looks in this alternative universe. Its always in the back of my mind.

You Know?

Tuning-Bullets



I heard this song on a episode of "Weeds". I found myself randomly humming this song throughout the day.. I had to throw it on the blog so that everyone else can be humming this song too.

Mid-Night conversation


Yesterday i was beat. After working on my portfolio for my internship i just passed out in my chair, then hopped on my bed for some rest. Maybe a couple hours later i got a text, asking me what i was doing and asked if i wanted to come out. I was about to send her off until she sent another text mentioning Scarlett.That changed my whole perspective, i decide to get up, get dressed, and go out....

After convincing everyone that they did not want to go to that party. We ended up at a friends house, just sitting around chilling. But then.... Everyone decided to go to sleep.. except Scarlett and I. It was about 2 o clock in the morning and we were just lying there on the couch together talking about everything. School, life, future, the past... Just like old times

Actually we spent alot of time talking about the past. We talked about the summer, we talked about bullshitting, we talked about what she thought "my type" was.In the midst of it all, I looked down at her and she had this really puzzled look on her face. Like she was in really deep thought.. So i asked "whats wrong?"... She first said nothing, but after some persuasion she finally started talking... She asked.. "why didnt you ever say anything?" Say anything about what?.. "You always said that you had a huge crush on me throughout 7th and 8th grade. Why didnt you ever say anything? She kind of caught me off guard. Wasnt expecting that at all. And honestly, i didnt have an answer for her. I really dont know why......But Somehow i got her to change the subject, and we just kept talking.. As I was dozing off..she whispered in my ear and said "Don't forget me".. And with the utmost sincerity , i looked her in the eyes and said "I won't"...And. before i knew it, it was 6 o clcok, and i was rushing to go meet my mother. So many things were discussed, i cant even put them all on here.

Its nights like this that ill always remember.. With the people that ill never forget.

One of the Greatest gifts of life....


In a recent conversation, i was talking to a friend,and the subject of relatoinships, and love came up. And i said..

"One of the greatest gifts of life is Love, and having those feelings reciprocated..."

It was one of those times when i said something, and i really had to stop and think. In the past id write it down in my sidekick or in my iphone. But since i now have neither. Ill share it here.

What you doin?... Bullshitting


Its true... People change.. Some people change.. others never change, and they just get worse. I was a supreme bullshitter. Its how i lived. I manipulated people, I learned everything i could about you, then attacked... I knew exactly where to hit to hurt people the most. I took advantage of people.

But when i grew up. (funny how i actually grew up over the span of a couple months,lol)It took years to corrupt me, but only a couple months for me to grow out of my bad habits. And im so glad that i did.

You see, when i grew up i realized that manipulation and snaking was not necessary to get the things you want out of people, or out of life as a whole. I realized that you can get everything you want, by being kind and sincere.

I learned that a bullshitter is only bullshitting himself in the end. I wanted to be a flawless bullshitter. I didnt want to be a lying bullshitter. My method was not to lie, but to instead... Manipulate the truth. But I discovered that you cant be a bullshitter without telling some lies along the way. In addition to lying to the people around me. I was lying to myself. The worst part about it all, is that i was believing the lies I told. I believed that i was doing some good. I believed that i was getting ahead somehow. But in reality, i was digging a hole, i was reversing everything my mentors ever taught me. And i brought others down with me. 2 people i most regret pulling in my holes were Bridgette and...(yes) Jade.

Ive apologized to Bridgette more times that i can count, but someone i have yet to apologize to with sincerity is Jade. She deserved the truth. Both of us did. But She didnt deserve it the way it was served. It was cruel.

Another thing i realized after I stopped bullshitting myself. was that I am now really at peace. Ive always been at peace (so I thought) Calm cool and collected. But it was a false peace. Just like the false stories i was telling these girls. But once i stopped lying to myself, i am finally at peace and can move to immeasurable heights.

Truth is, over the past couple years i havent done much of anything business wise. I mean, i still trade, and I have pretty good returns from that. But after Little Miracle i tried starting 3 businesses that have ultimately been flops. But since ive grown up even the business side of me has been on the up and up. Starting with New World over the summer. Now with Bean Jordan. Finance has always been my passion so when i stopped bullshitting myself with these wacky ideas that i knew couldnt/wouldnt work i was able to do what i really wanted to do. Im indeed grateful for all that has happened. And even more grateful that that i now see clearly.

Last but not least, I realized that i one day.. someone will see right through the lies and the bullshit. one day someone will look through it all, right into your soul... Then what?

Once a bullshitter.. Not always a bullshitter...

One day, someone will see right through you.. then what?


I was having a conversation this past weekend about the 48 Laws of Power. I mentioned that another friend of mine said that the 48 laws was a book about how to get ahead by snaking people. I agreed but still claimed it was a great book. BUt the person i was talking to disagreed. He justified the snaking by say it was "sharing". He claimed that the book taught you to "take on what others cant handle"
When he said that i thought about what my friend told me when i tried justifying the contents of the book. She said "sounds like a snake defending his bible". Indeed.. exactly what it was...I think that it take the realization of the lowest person you know, to realize that someone else has been false accused.
