1.Play basketball at the collegiate level

2.Finnish writing my book(s)

3.Become a chef, officially

4.Design my house (already in progress)

6.Go to pastry school...in England

7.Go to the Olympics...in England

8.Go to NYC

9.Write a catchy song

10.Get tattoos (which may be real soon)

not much, hahaha. i amuse myself.
also. to conclude as I usually do, with a song, I must let you know of my most famous quote.

"John Mayer is the Kobe Bryant of Guitar"

i said it when i was not sober, but not drunk. what i meant really was guitar=music, but it was close enough.

Song: Stop This Train- John Mayer (Live in LA version)

if you don't know who Kobe Bryant is, you don't deserve to be alive. and, yes he is the guy who got arrested for 'raping' a girl in an elevator and then bought his wife a 7 mil diamond ring, but that is not why he is famous.

School

i hate it.

"the only thing people take less than what they pay for is education"

i hate it because i already know most of the stuff i'm learning, i just dont feel like prooving it.

i am a perfectionist. i procrastinate because i don't think the final product is going to be as good as i want it to be.

i'm taking cost control 2 right now, which is the same as cost control 1, which i just took and got almost a perfect. but now i'm on the verge of failing. why? i have no idea. this, is why i hate school. people don't know how to teach. teachers think that students today are the same as when they were in school. and working with kids at a summer camp, prooves to me that they aren't. they most definatly have changed, so the teachers need to change.

i'm also in cooking healthy, which is a cooking class that i am also, almost failing. i just don't feel the need to proove that i know how to pick a pear out at a grocery store. or how to make fruit ripen quicker. are how to make muffins. i know how to do everything, im just here to get an official title.

oh, and im arrogant. in case you didn't notice. i should be here for the certificate, but i have to pay out of state tuition on that. which is lame.

they sent my case for my macbook, well it is in the mail. but the computer hasn't been shipped yet. how gay is that? what am i going to do with the case for 3 days while i wait for the mac?

Computers

I hate them.
so I'm going to get a mac.
I think. we'll see.

Its gonna be 'expensive'... but i think it will be worth it.

I'm also watching the Vandy/Miss State game. I don't know who to root for. I think Vandy, but they have a better shot at winning the SEC.

Songs on Guitar

I'm teaching myself to play guitar, so far I've learned a ton of riffs, but I have successfully learned one full song. Probably because it is only three chords, but I twisted them and use a capo, so I would like to think it is a intermediate song. Angel from Montgomery is the song, in case your wondering. I have played it to myself a bunch; and turns out, singing while playing, is really hard. But I nailed this one. I may play it in public this summer, to give myself some more time to practice...we'll see.

My favorite version is from the movie Into The Wild. Kristen Stewart sings...yes, she is the girl from Twilight...that's why I decided to watch Into The Wild. It actually is a good movie. Here's the YouTube link...

Menu and Diet

My mom wants me to make a menu for her. I suggested the idea, because it bothers me that we make up meals on the spot and usually, they are awful. So I think I am going to make a list of different dishes in their specific 'genre'. I have a ton of recipes for them to use, mine are always good, but they want to try new things...just not my new things. Confusing, I know! If you want some recipes, just ask for some. I have plenty.

I'm also starting a new diet on February 1st. I was thinking about using the P90X workout program, a friend uses it, and he's lost 28 pounds in 3 weeks. I may try and find it in a torrent somewhere. My diet is really simple. I have no restrictions on calories, just on the amount of food i actually eat. It goes something like this: 1 fruit in the morning, around 7 or 730. A small meal at 11 or 1130, something like 2 tacos from chipotle. Then another small meal around 230 or 3, about the same size as the second meal. And then dinner around 7 or 730, and that is a small (3-4 oz) piece of protein and a small side of veggies (3-4 stalks asparagus). This, combined with the workout that may or may not happen, will hopefully allow me to lose weight. I'm not looking to gain muscle, I have that. I just need to get the unhealthy fat off.
