End of Finals and Summer

Finals are done! It was stressful-ish. Made me stay up for 2 days straight and grow gray hairs. Now it's over! Ha! It feels good to get a breather from all the craziness. Right? Even though I'm glad the semester is over, I'll miss being out every day and my awesomely crazy girl. What's up for the summer? Work, work, friends, friends, appointments, and more work (in random order) but I'll make the most of it to make it a cool summer.

Assignments, a Foot and Lists

- Assignments, assignments, assignments...so many to do but I know they can be done, it's the matter of not getting distracted. I think I have the attention span of a squirrel. Speaking of that, I've been seeing squirrels a lot lately...including one of them that wanted to fight me...but that's another story. Back to the topic-- Assignments. I hope everyone gets them done without pulling clumps of hair out their head. One last thing, try to bring the procrastination down becau--I'll finish that last sentence...tomorrow.

- I saw someone who's last name is "Foot" on facebook. That's one of the weirdly coolest last name ever. If the doctor calls him into the office, the receptionist would say "Mr. Foot, the doctor will see you now". Or he would say "Ow! I hit my foot...oh wait". I don't know, but that last name is cool.

- I bought this book of making lists sometime last month. It made me want to make a couple of lists myself. One of them is to make a list of things to do over the summer. Last year was pure work, work, a little play and more work. This year, I wanna actually do other things...like laser tag, go-karts, balloon/water gun fights (don't judge me) etc. I'll make a separate post of my different lists. Will I stick to the lists? Stay tuned...

Picture This....

For those that know me, I take a lot of pictures of everything. I'd like to think that I'm really good at it, though I would just be hyping myself up. Every now and then, I would have people tell me that I really should pursue photography. I used to take the compliment but think nothing much of it....till now.

I'm doing TV & Radio as a major in school and it's not bad and all. However, I don't see myself being a TV producer/Radio personality (or applicable profession) for the rest of my life, since there's a million other things I also wanna try doing, namely being a voice actor, videographer, owning a set of businesses (think Rob Dyrdek, Richard Branson) [just to name a few].

Back to the whole photography thing, I'm gonna give it a shot, creating a portfolio and getting some photo equipment (extra lenses, filters, tripod, etc.) Yeah, some of them are expensive but some things are worth investing. 

Being that phone photography is climbing up due to all the new hi-tech phones coming out, I'll just focus on that for the time being. My phone (HTC MyTouch 4G Slide) has been past awesome to me so far and I think it'll make me some good money. Oh and Instagram is sorta putting all my pics out there. Maybe other industry photo head will take notice. Who knows but here's hoping....

Mind Reader

Don't you wish you could read the minds of other people? I know I do. Maybe it's just me, not sure. (Think Matt Parkman from the show Heroes...if you watch it, like me).

....then again, sometimes I wish people were bold enough to just say whatever is on their mind at any time (well...there's a time and place for everything but yeah).

Just a lil something I thought about.

Start ---> Finish

I have an essay to do for my English class. So far, I've stared at this half done first draft thing about Martin Luther King’s "I Have a Dream" speech and "Letter from Birmingham Jail" about a thousand times. I really don't want to finish this but if I put it off any longer, it'll never get done. Gotta finish what I started. That goes for everything else I started and I have yet to finish. Just a little thought.

An "I-Me" Challenge

Okay so this is kinda inspired by a special person of mine. Let's see what I come up with....

- I take pictures...a LOT of pictures. I'd say im pretty good at it
- I'm a big kid and a grown man wrapped in one
- I grew up on hip-hop/rap/r&b but I listen to just about everything
- I'm weird, crazy, and funny
- I eat a lot for a skinny person
- I can talk about anything and everything...nothing is off limits with me
- I'm really good at Tetris, or so I'm told
- I give great advice to people that works, working on giving myself advice too
- I'm a person with a trillion ideas for just about anything and everything, just not sure how to put them together
- I'm working on all points of my life: Happiness , Love, Education and Career. Still trying to figure it out
- I like challenges and surprises
- I can be extremely creative depending on who I'm around
- I'm an ordinary person to society. To some people, I'm anything but that

This is just scratching the surface of who I am and what I'm about. People alway say to "be yourself" and that's what I try to be at all times. I'm Ryan. What up?

Here. Have Some Patience

Wait. hold up.

Keep waiting.

It seems like everybody has to wait for something. The bus, the train, the plane, etc. Sometimes you'll have to wait on people (for various reasons of course). The point is that you need patience. You'll never get what you want without it. You may wait a minute, weeks, months or years. If there's something (or someone) you want and can't wait, make a plan and go get it.

In the meantime, look at your watch, twiddle your fingers, read a book. Just have patience and keep waiting.
