Is It So Wrong To Love Foggy Weather?

Monday and Saturday were great, the city was covered in fog. I've never been so happy to be enclosed in such a fog. A question arose about what's there to like about the fog, you can't see anything. I gave it a long hard thought and to answer it as poetically as I can.

"The great thing about fog is, you know what is there. You're certain of it, but something is obstructing your view and it isn't yourself."

What You See Ain't Always What You Get

Thoughts and Quotes:

"How can something seem so close yet not within reach?"
As I was looking at the stars and the moon.

"Can you really forgive a man for killing his own heart?"
As I was walking home in the middle of the night.

"The phone keeps ringing, but no one is on the other side"
Stupid telemarketers

I realize I need to start finding friends that are single. Everyone I normally hang out with is in a relationship.

A Hurdle, A Clearing, A Hurdle

Seems like this week might seem like there is some breathing room. Maybe not so much breathing room, but things to do seem a lot less in comparison to last week. Nonetheless everything is boiling to a nice fine point. I hope things end well by the end of the semester. I don't know how to plan this semester...too many things in front of me and I don't what I should hold on to.

Love is a Career

I've been meaning to write this down, but I didn't get around to it. My Design Colloquium class is quite interesting. The professor often uses dating analogies when she talks about the job hunting process. Things such as founding the right fit, a place where you can be yourself and where you can work to grow in your practice the way you want to. Don't get stuck in a place you want to be because the job is not going to change because of you. Never take a rejection personal, it's strictly business though there are emotional involved regardless you move on don't get stuck in a rut about it. Stuff of that nature and I thought about it long and hard, she is right. Your career shouldn't be about finding a place and love shouldn't be about founding somebody.

This all came into light as I was walking to the washroom in A.A. You want to find a job that compliments you. A place you want to be happy going to every morning just like the person you want to see at the end of the day. There is no point in being miserable at your job because you're going to go home miserable to whoever is at home waiting for you; there's nothing to worry about if no one is there. You can't settle, especially in your youth. You can't expect someone to change for you more than you expect your job to change for you. The thought that struck me hard was, you can learn to love your job, but your job will never learn to love you; unless you're one of the decision makers in the company then things might be a little different. Same goes for people, you can learn to love someone, but they're not going to learn to love you if you're just settling. I don't know if that makes any sense.

Think About It

The people who want it will get it.
The people who need it will find it.

Think about it.

You Write Your History Then You Turn the Page


"You write your history then you turn the page."

This quote came to my head some odd evening during the week. I don't know what I was really thinking about when this line came into fruition. Just that I know you can't be stuck in the past, what has been written is written and there is no way of correcting what has been done. We as people should not stick on the page, we need to progress. The future is a blank slate and we write on these new pages; please do not use the past as a reference for new writing material. The future should be full of new ideas. I don't know, I just thought it sound nice.
