I just can't wait until after this first half of the week is over.

Probably one of the best new years I've ever had. Even though I didn't do much, I spent some time with my family. And even got to sit down and had tea with the local buddhist monk. It was all really cool. I enjoyed every minute of it. And then I realized how much time has past in my life, and it has just flown by. I guess I'm at a point that I've started to realize the meaning of setting goals. It's about doing stuff you want to do, or challenge yourself. And given the limited time I have in my life, it feels right to set some goals. Even though you can't always follow through with all of them, however at least they're something to strive for. They give you a sense of direction in this crazy universe. Now I'm going to kick back, enjoy my time and strive for these:
1. Graduate college
2. Learn how to swim
3. Spend sometime overseas
3. Save money...
4. to move out of Lincoln
5.

Now it is called PHD, sounds like it might be something to look forward to. It's his pet project so I'm interested to see what happens. I'm a little apprehensive but its worth the risk and and that would save us some money. If it this works out, I think it maybe something I'll have to get into. Anyways I have a new years resolution for myself. I call it Project Mode, it's the culmination of my natural knack for life and creativity. So far the results have been positive, but I'm going to have throttle back on Project Mode because I've started to slack off on my studies to focus on Project Mode. If I didn't have classes to worry about Project Mode would be in full force. However at this point in my life graduation is more important than anything else.","comments":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/13556.html?view=comments#comments"},{"guid":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/13262.html","pubDate":"Thu, 19 Jan 2006 14:57:35 GMT","title":"is it spring yet?","author":"fortune8","link":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/13262.html","description":"Well interesting news, my portfolio is up 126%...the highest it has ever been...all due to AMD soaring like an eagle and a thing I like to call black gold...petrolium. Anyways I'm glad I sold Intel earlier, because that shit is tanking now more than when I had it. And I hope exubera passes FDA, because that can boost my portfolio to new levels. But that's not really why I'm really here to write...just here to shoot the shit with myself. It's funny how I like to talk to myself...its almost like a way to sort things out to myself...hahaha. Anyways it almost feels like spring...but its not. I can't wait till this shit gets warmer.
I've been really getting into psychology lately, I don't know why...something about the human mind interests me. I find people in general interersting, we're all different but yet the same. We're almost like animals but possess a thing called rational thought. The ability to think and even question. Why ask why? or why is not spring yet? Even though I know the answer...its the the fact that we possess the conscious ability to question and think...now that's amazing.","comments":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/13262.html?view=comments#comments"},{"guid":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12985.html","pubDate":"Wed, 04 Jan 2006 21:57:11 GMT","title":"E to an I and I to an E","author":"fortune8","link":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12985.html","description":"Its funny, I've always thought of myself an I.

It's time to spare freedom for a change.
Out the door of the noble truths and into the
midnight stars, where you\u2019ll find games of fame.
Bring a loyal smile for a smashing pint.
Forget your failures of 1929,
have some bathtub gin.
Celebrate why you left everything behind,
while wearing your moonshine grin.
Keep in mind you\u2019ll be fine,
Unless you\u2019re hanging over the toilets brim.","comments":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12561.html?view=comments#comments"},{"guid":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12379.html","pubDate":"Thu, 08 Dec 2005 02:10:41 GMT","author":"fortune8","link":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12379.html","description":"Late nights and early mornings never get old.
The sequential shatters of my alarm
raises the dead zombie, who is hungry for food.
Foraging through the cupboard vault of honey.
Breakfast at the shack, music
revolves through the journey to school.
Listen to the latest track, so hot nothing is too cool.
Hip-hop goes a long way and never gets cold
But it\u2019s like ice. Bling Bling blares the music.
Kicking back, enjoying the silence, just like on the farm.
In Australia a warm beer is sacrilegious as stealing money.
Here in the states my salivating soul is sold by some of food.
Exams and essays, long and painful. One has neither capacity nor the mood.
Fast food gives you gas, you\u2019re no fool.
I don\u2019t like coffee or cr\u00e8me, but I\u2019ll have some tea and honey.
Bread sounds good but that grows mold.
Dishonorable dude keeps kicking my chair, should I do him some Kung Fu harm?
Patient rhythms for the oscillating heart, we call it music.
The analog fog filled the psychedelic excursion of music.
A famished crest from the west, drains the rice rain of food.
I\u2019m waiting for the next world war, nobody is safe from harm.
The phone has become a way of life, its convenience of distraction\u2026oh how \u201ccool\u201d.
Jiffy Lube says its time to winterize your car before it gets too cold.
I truly enjoy the sexy smothered smell of honey.
Recklessly running the business of earning honest money.
The freedom unrestrained by the music
rocking my time as I never get cold.
Surviving the fun while being crude.
With the intensity of the freewill fool
I enjoy the endless games of fun and charm.
I hope I die early while I\u2019m still alive or retire on a farm.
In a sour world sugar is currency where in reality there\u2019s honey.
In the evening I still have school
with strangers who remind me of elevator music.
I\u2019m not mean, rudeness stems from no food.
Dirty laundry has no place to fold.
I turn off the player, save the batteries to save my music.
Where\u2019s home? A place with cheese and crackers, toast and honey
are all fine foods. However gum never gets old.","comments":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12379.html?view=comments#comments"},{"guid":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12240.html","pubDate":"Fri, 18 Nov 2005 15:08:27 GMT","title":"Words of fury","author":"fortune8","link":"https:\/\/fortune8.livejournal.com\/12240.html","description":"Accounting night
\nThe primetime action of century.

\nThe Game of Death<\/span> replays in my head.

\nWith that, the speechless foe was spared.

Which is my dream quad, its a better quad than the blaster, its more powerful, and best of all its a honda :P And not to mention it is practically a steal.
