Creative Works

So my old laptop decided to start working again! Filled with memories.. I went through everything.. Pictures, videos, old high school papers.. everything.. But one folder that stood out to me the most was "Creative Works".. This was the folder where I put the things that I wrote while i was going through a creative moment. I had a few scenes of a screen play and 5 chapters of a book I was writing. I read over the two of them, laughed at the screenplay, it was suppossed to be a romantic comedy. And i was immediately drawn to the story of the book I was writing. But why didnt I finish?  

MJ without the ego..

Sometimes when you watch this man play, its hard not to think about the man that did it before him... Michael Jordan.. Derrick Rose hates being compared to Michael Jordan but sometimes you cant help but do it. The way he fearlessly drives to the rim and gets the ball in the hoop with the straightest face. He was the rookie of the year.. 2 time All Star..Youngest MVP in NBA history, he is global superstar.. But he doesnt wear his accomplishments on his sleeve, he just plays the game. 

Would you rather be loved or admired?

The other day I was asked "would you rather be love or admired? I thought about it for a minute... But i didnt even need that much time.... I already knew my answer... Id rather be loved.. hands down... Admiration is fine, but i dont think its that important.. And I think most people would agree with me. They want to be loved. Like i said, admiration is fine, but it wont keep you warm at night... (Unless you are a total narcissist)..Not only that, admiration can come and go...In the words of Drake..Love.. When its real, it doesnt fade..

Quote of the Day

My Dream Girl Follows Me

Today was alumni day at my high school. And i saw many old faces, some I was more happy to see than others. It actually reminded me of those family gatherings when you go to and you have to act like you like everyone you see. And every face you see, there are a millions thoughts going through your head at once about that one person, all the memories good or not. And often times you just find your self smiling on the outside, and saying "I really don't like you" in your head.. Hilarious stuff really... But about an hour after i left I found myself siting around the kitchen table at a friends house and talking about all that happened... But one thing that we both lingered on was this girl.. Everyone gave there comment about her then my buddy said.. "low key, thats like David's dream girl"... When he said it, i didn't think much of it but after a late night drive... It dawned on me.... He's kind of right.... She fits the profile... 

Fun Times

Have you ever been sitting someplace silent, then out of nowhere just start laughing really hard because something really funny popped in your head. That's been happening to me pretty often lately. I remember i was sitting at work a couple weeks ago and I just started dying laughing. I was thinking about the time that I was telling Jade about D Bass and she started mocking me in the dumbest voice. And it was absolutely hilarious.. (You had to have been there and heard her). Truth is.. even though our relationship was often times going terribly wrong, there were many great moments. A day that ill never forget was actually the last great moment that we shared together. It was when we were at my house and we were talking about Thomas.I actually dont remember the whole conversation, I just remember us coming to the conclusion that he was a "little bitch", thats all that matters, lol. Ive also come to the conclusion that i was a big factor in all the bad that happened. (Jade had her fair share of course) But looking back, I was tweaking. the stuff I use to do and say was off the wall to say the least. Like i remember several times, acting like I was mad, but I wasnt really upset at all, then id actually start getting angry then I'd stop and wonder "why am I mad again", and I would have no idea. lol. Or when Jade would think that I was upset when I wasnt, then all of a sudden I would actually be upset and again.. I had no idea why. Man ,you have to love high school relationships. You know, I was looking at all my old facebook messages the other day. and I cant across ours. The conversations were so weird but we'd still talk for hours. While I was reading them, i could see her and I in my head actually having this conversation. I could see little me, and little her standing there talking. I heard her voice, I saw her facial expressions, it was so nostalgic. And i absolutely loved it. It was actually a moment when it sent chills down my spine. Now dont get me wrong,the feelings I had for jade are long one, and I wish her and hers well. I know we'll never be together again, or even have teh same relationship that we did, and im cool with that. However, i have come to the conclusion that ill probably see her several times again before I die, because its obviously unavoidable, and im ok with that too. I actually have more to say but I have a meeting in an hour, so i probably should start getting dressed. But there wil be a follow up post. I have more stories to tell. lol

Interview with Tupac Shakur

"I ain't too proud to tell you that I cry sometimes...."

J. Cole- Lost Ones... this has to be one of J. Cole's realest songs. It was on one of his earlier mixtapes, and made its way on his first album, I applaud the decision.

McCain is screwed...

So i was recently looking through the tax documents of presidents, and presidential candidates... and while looking at John McCain's i quickly realize that this dude was totally screwed. So John is supposedly worth about 54 million but that is primarily based on what he is entitled to from his marriage with Cindy McCain.. If you didn't know already, cindy is the only heir to her a fathers beer company. (the company that owns Budweiser). and She controls the family trust. And it looks like she has everything in her name except for their joint checking accounts which is worth about 250k.... He gets 54k from a pension, has about a 2 million in life insurance and an IRA plan totaling his personal net worth (not including his wife) being around 3-4 million tops. His kids have about 10 million in mutual funds in their name, and not to mention the trust funds that they surely have in place. That means that McCain is worth less than half of what his kids are worth. So i say all of this to say... I hope John is really nice to cindy or has a really good prenup... Because if he doesnt... Cindy will probably take her kids and her 9 figure bank account and John will be.... screwed.. (Lots of rambling... loads of fun, and im bored at work, bare with me)
