Tumblr
I think it’s about time that I stopped using tumblr. There’s nothing here to look forward to anymore, since it’s the same thing on and off every time I go down my dash. Try-hard philosophers who probably don’t know the least bit of what they’re quoting and how to actually apply it. People with big egos who talk about how it’s a turnoff to have a big ego and...
The Baby Of My Workplace
“We’re going to find you a guy” seems to be majority of the call centers goal for me. When I’m on the phones or going out with friends on lunch break, the same topic about me “getting it on”, is always brought up. It may sound like an ego booster, but it isn’t. They simply just like messing with me. I’m definitely the baby in the workplace… and...
Next Investment
I’ve been thinking about this for quite a while, but I’m considering getting a camera again after my last one got stolen. I really miss the feel of holding one in my hands every where I went and it was definitely another medium I took in more then drawing. There’s a lot to catch up since I’ve last held one and my bro has already surpassed many kids his age in the art of...
Asus Notebook
Finally got myself a laptop, an asus one, which I’ve envied for quite a bit now. It’s not something I’d usually adapt to, but it’s good for now until I save up for something better.

The closing statement from Harry’s Law, where Harry defends a teenage girl for cyber-bullying a lesbian who ends up killing herself.
This video is really powerful because it touches how the society is guilty of caushing suicide amongst LGBTQ youth. Take a few minutes to watch this clip. The full episode is available for streaming here, here, and here.

You stay in one place for too long and the people there will start solidifying an image of you. Like you’ll always be the same til the day they stick you in a coffin. One day you decide to say a new word or express a new lifestyle you feel suitable, buddy on the left gives you the brow like that’s weird or unacceptable. Some people can’t adjust to people changing. But that’s why...
2 Minutes @ Charlies
I was just dancing with my friend at the club with the lights constantly flashing above us going in every direction, not really caring who was around us and just doing our thing. All of a sudden, my friend sidestepped to dance with someone else and I could feel my waist being pulled forward to that of another persons waist. A tall and slightly muscular guy was looking straight in my face when I...

BS: First Gaybar In Arizona
Recently on saturday, I went to my first gay bar here in AZ with a friend in Oldtown Scottsdale. The atmospheric environment the town gave off when we arrived reminded me so much of how Seattle was like. The slight sharp turns, the people, and the way the lights were setup gave off that feeling that I was back home. I was so excited and giddy all over. The air I was breathing felt really fresh...

200: whatever suits your fancy.( a picture, random facts, what you did today, your plans for tomorrow)
I plan on going through some course selections tomorrow and getting ahead of the rest of the students. There’s some terminology I’m not quite familiar with yet, so that’s one of my tasks I’ll be running through. I really want to finish one of my financial readings by tomorrow, so that...

199: what is the last book you read, why did you read it?
Increase Your Financial IQ- Robert Kiyosaki
I’m reading it because they don’t teach you these kind of topics in high school… or college, unless you take initiative to educate yourself on it.
Black Guys
Mailan: You know what? I'm going to get you a black guy!
Me: You're crazy. I don't think I'll be able to handle one
Mailan: Of course you can! You're fearless and your ass will get bigger!
Me: MAILAN! NO! I DON"T NEED THAT!
Mailan: YES YOU DO WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!
Me: YOU'RE CRAZY!
Mailan: Stephen.. once you experience a black guy, you'll never go back to other ethnicities
Me: I'm going to go eat now
Mailan: Alright. Bye!!!

196: what is one thing you regret doing?
Not taking this online course I’m currently taking when I was 18.. ugh haha. I could have gotten an hourly wage at $25-30/hr at the time.

195: have you ever had braces/will you ever need braces?
I need my wisdom teeth pulled out which is lopsided and deep in my gum. I need to pull out a tooth because of that cause. And all together, my teeth are sort of messed up. So yeah, I seriously want and need braces…
Lesson I learned from work
I work at a callcenter, College Bound Network, in Tempe, where I follow up with potential students on their program or college of choice. It’s nice to have a valued client on the phone now and then, but it’s not always like that. I have people who scream and cuss me out, claiming that they never came across our website. And they just don’t want to try anymore with furthering...

192: summer or winter? why?
Summer, I tend to get more close with people then I do in the winter. Plus, it always snows on my birthday, so I rarely celebrate it. In fact, I might not even celebrate it this year. It’s much more easier to read and relax in the sun.
