write a book
scrambled pages 2 years ago

I’ve begun a character profile on my main man I would like to write a book about… still not positive about the name yet… but he’ll be a keeper. :)



be more personable
Untitled 2 years ago

Surprise, surprise!
My jobs have been helping this. Not so much lately… because now I’m more just doing stocking and cleaning, but at the beginning… Perfecto.
I got a got at American Eagle mid-november. At first I was extremely skeptical about the job. I thought I might get stuck working with some of the types of people I’ve just never really liked. I also thought I may be working with some stereotypically “American Eagle” people… It turns out, majority of the people there are great! Of course there’s still a couple highschool drama queens, a few sports-crazed nuts, a few health & workout freaks, one or two snobbish-looking women and whatnot… but all in all, they’re all nice people!
They’ve accepted me into the staff although I’m not entirely your typical American Eagle employee and even though they’re not necessarily the type of people I would have as friends, we all still get along just great!
Over the christmas holidays and through a bit of January I was working everday and it was ALWAYS insanely busy. But we all had high spirits, had fun, goofed off and worked hard and it made for a great holiday. So this one’s been pretty successful so far! Though I admit I’m still working on it.



Sing
"Dance like no-one's watching. Sing like no-one's listening. Love like you've never been hurt." 2 years ago

Don’t sing because you can, sing because you love it.
If you think you can’t, stop thinking that way.
If you want to but you’re scared to, try it anyway.
If you can but you can’t do it in front of people, start working on your confidence and make an effort to push your boundaries by showing people songs you’ve written or letting them hear tracks you’ve recorded.
I know it’s difficult, trust me, I know… It’s a very slow process—this building my confidence and letting people listen to things and to hear me… but the more I do it, the better I get at doing it, and the more confident I’m beginning to get.
Don’t let people drag you down.
If you think you have what it takes, don’t let anyone stop you.
If you think you sound good, that’s what matters.
Everyone has their own sound, style and way. Not everyone may warm up to yours, but that doesn’t make it bad.
Do you know who Bjork is? Do you like her? She’s one of those people that is either loved or hated. That doesn’t stop her.
Don’t let it stop you.
