Just Checking In
What in Sam Hill is going on here? I’ve been so busy with school, working out (sort of) and working that I haven’t had much spare time to let my mind roam. Can it be? Do I ACTUALLY have a life now?
Well…maybe. Things have been pretty steady. I joined an organization at school, Planet Longhorn, and I am MORE than excited to finally get the ball rolling with that and meet new...
Sorority Girls
Okay, I really haven’t made up my mind entirely on this issue, YES, this is an issue.
Sorority girls are several things…. As to which they are not, I really don’t know. Walking around campus you can usually spot who is in a sorority and who isn’t, considering they are decked head to toe in the hat, jacket shirt and flip-flops or the Nike running shorts with the...

No pain, no gain, right?
Disappointment
So, as I was about to head into the student union, a fellow classmate suggested I go to the New Union in the Student Activity Center, the newest building on campus. So, excited to explore this new architecture I went there, roamed around a bit, and went to the second floor to find a comfy chair to sit in. I scan the possibilities and then see an empty chair next to a very pretty girl reading. I...
Where My Mind Has Been
These past couple of days, my mind has really been everywhere. And not in a bad way, I think I just have more free time than others so I am constantly thinking. The first week of school was all swell and dandy, syllabi and expectation, but I feel like this semester is going to be a 4.0 kind of semester. I want to start getting involved on campus and do something, something that matters with people...

run run run
I throw darts not in the middle of bars or walls in the dark but unsuspecting hearts blinded from their own spark or stupidity
is it wrong of me?
to want you to feel something similar to lightning and firebirds
on the grooves of your skin on the strings of your acoustic hips darling kiss me like a mouth of piano keys pressed against Ray’s wrists
I’m tossing darts the way fireworks...

Oh, did I mention?
I’m going to New York City April Sixth to see Explosions in The Sky perform at the Radio City Music Hall with Alex Klunk?
Yeah, I am

Back To School, Back To School
So school starts tomorrow! The Spring semester of my freshman year and here we are! The break was good to me, I think some questions were answered and parts of me were cleansed. I really want to keep myself busy with this semester, by doing things that interest me. By being proactive and active and immersing myself in good deeds. I think student government and promoting spoken word poetry around...

So I’m growing out my facial hair. I am hiding my razor, I am keeping all blades away from my face in hopes that something manly manifests below my chin, along the silhouette of my jaw line and my soul patch becomes even more endowed with uh…soul. I’ve never been one to care but this extra fur during this harsh winter is coming in handy so…I must let my hair persist until...

– EPIC FB CHAT
Yeah, you look good... Part 1
But all you women are crazy and conflicted and liars and hypocrites and incapable of admitting any of that. Don’t get me wrong, men are no saints. More often than not we don’t think twice about what we say do or think and even more often, the point of origin for all of those thoughts are below our waist. However, my allegiances are clear (Thank you to my penis), therefore I am forced...

Who To Trust?
1. Easy, Alexander Klunk
If You're Gorgeous
You’ve probably known that your whole life. I’m not talking about “Oh, her hair is cute when it’s up and she has nice legs when they’re shaved.” No, I’m talking about eyes follow you everywhere, creepily or not. I mean, you have everything to aesthetically please me and the entire world. If you’re THAT girl…well you suck.
Hear me out. Since...

Two Things I wish I could do…but obviously can’t
1. Go back in time
2. sing
(go back in time and sing to you, only you)
Today
Sometimes, you can feel your life changing. Whether it’s in the air or underneath your feet, something feels different. A feeling emerges from your being, from your core and it’s right there, you can see it, you can touch it, you can feel it.
Today was probably one of the best day’s of my life. And it wasn’t because I got any money, nothing material was gained, in fact, it...

Four Things Forever In My Mind…
1. Brave New Voices aka the youth national poetry slam
2. Olive Juice
3. The first journal I finished
4. The first show I ever saw, with my cousin Ryan- Local Natives @ Antones
The last poem about you
Time, life, and shooting stars
these things move forward
detatched
a single direction
I have been paying attention
my foot has been fixed
in a fox-hole
I am tried of a tangled web
always a trick or a test
caught up in the middle of
something I never understood
A wooden heart- I am easily burned
I can easily turn all of my ad habits on
and throw them around my beck
But I am walking...

5-7. Some variation of # 4
All I'm Saying Is
If you’re a girl and a guy makes fun of you or is mean to you and you can’t take a joke or laugh then you should probably find the deepest hole in your surrounding area and go fall in it. Listen, guys are mean. Boys are mean. 99%, okay 100% of the time we are talking out of our asses and are aiming for such a slight degree of meanness only to catch you off-guard later with a hint of...

What Not To DO:
1. Assume I speak Spanish because I’m Mexican…
2. Tell me One Tree Hill is a girl’s show
3. Expect something from me you yourself are not giving
4. Question my knowledge on hip-hop (real hip-hop)
5. Tell me I talk too fast…
6. Tell me to “relax” or “chill out”
7. Expect to win an argument
8. Fall asleep in the middle of a...
Oh, Oh Carry on
Sometimes you gotta dig, and I mean really dig to find what you’re looking for. Dig through the bullshit, dig through the past, dig through your heart and then look at your hands. Sometimes you come up with nothing, sometimes you come up with everything, like a breath of fresh air after being submerged underwater. Stop pretending like you don’t have a choice, like you can’t...
2/10
1. Watch Netflix
2. Think about the next poem I will perform and where
3. Smile, at you or away from you
4. Wonder if I’m the person I need to be or should be or want to be
5. I listen to mumford and sons and vampire weekend
6. I rummage through my past and realize I was a pathetic excuse for a man
7. I rummage through my present and realize I am more than that now
8. Think about sex

1. I pick my nose everywhere
2. I think money complicates things
3. I can quote The Notebook, effortlessly.
4. I find no use in religion, but I think it has merit
5. People tell me I talk too fast, and so I slow myself down before I open my mouth
6. Sometimes I’d rather lie than disappoint, which has caused me some trouble in the past.
7. The past will always hang over my shoulders,...

2011
I know everyone is scribing their New Year’s Resolution in hopes to better themselves and gain or regain or find a better version of who they are. I think I started doing that even before today, or last night. It’ really something, how one day can change your entire perspective. Today gives you a chance not to start over, but to start again. You can keep your grip on the past, you can...
