Look out weekend cuz here i come...

Just returning from a weekend with family in Vegas. Had a blast and saw my cousin who i haven't seen for about 10 years, his wife and especially my newest nephew Keithley William Sam.



It was nice to get away and take things into perspective and reflect on changes in my life. On the way out, had a great meal at my now favorite casino (Red Rock) and helped the family win some money on the craps table. =)

If that wasn't enough...heading back to vegas again this weekend for the ohana trip. Still deciding on a show (la reve, LOVE, ?) and what we're going to do, but it doesn't matter because we'll have a fun time.

I'm thankful for my parents, my brother and sister. I appreciate my aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. I'm glad to have my health and the ability to wake up each morning and see the beauty in each day. I've touched many lives and have learned from all those i have met.

32 years...its been quite a run...yet I still feel like there is so much for me to do and see. Onward and Carpe Diem!

Quotes

To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.

Art is an expression of life and transcends both time and space. We must employ our own souls through art to give a new form and a new meaning to nature or the world.

-looking inward towards self improvement-

I wanna learn this to play this on the piano. The first clip is beautiful while the bottom clip is just cute. I need to get off my emo self but felt this was a good marking point for me.




Cat And Mouse
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

Softly we tremble tonight,
picture perfect fading smiles are all that's left in sight,
I said I'd never leave you'll never change
I'm not satisfied with where I'm at in life.

Am I supposed to be happy?
When all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
Am I supposed to be happy?
When all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
You said, you said that you would die for me….

We made plans to grow old,
believe me there was truth in all those stories that I told.
Lost in a simple game cat and mouse are we the same people as before this came to light?

Am I supposed to be happy?
when all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
Am I supposed to be happy?
with all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
You said, you said that you would die for me…

You must live for me too'...
For me too...yeah, yeah…
You said that you would die for me…

Am I supposed to be happy?
with all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
Am I supposed to be happy?
when all I ever wanted, it comes with a price
You said, you said that you would die for me...
