*celebrates* ------------ sometimes when i write blogs it seems like i have too much in my head at once, like my brain thinks about things in like, generalizations in a sense, and i have all these theories about life running around in my head at once i even have a theory about writing itself, like we go through things or have thoughts and our minds fill up, no one was ever meant to only take in information, and no one was meant to only give out information.. we all may have a different balance, but we all have a balance nonetheless if u only take in info and never put anything out, that will take u off balance and u will feel alone or bored or unsatisfied in some way shape or form, if u only give out, u will probably end up feeling drained and will need to refill somehow the blogs for me are an instant output.. keeping my balance in a healthy zone (cuz i already take in a lot on a daily basis) ------------ wanna talk about the 2 foods i hate the most hot dogs and watermelon both of these foods are utterly disgusting hot dogs are slimey, they smell terrible and no one seems to know what they're made out of watermelon is just completely gross on every level, the taste and smell are both offensive and enough to induce nausea both of these foods should be banned from existence don't eat them unless u enjoy projectile vomiting ------------- much respect to steve mcnair, just wanna say a little about that situation i'd like to know what exactly happened, so far it seems like the media in general is trying to keep things under wraps because he did so much good in his lifetime that in a sense, they want to keep the general view of his life as positive as possible i understand this yet i still want to know what exactly happened what keeps playing in my head whenever i think about the situation is "its just another way a chick can lead to your end" -mf doom many men seem to not understand that a lot of women are a trap.. whether its because they have alterior motives, or because they are involved with someone already, or whatever the case may be.. a lot of women are a trap its like a lot of times guys think they are gettin over, but in the end they are the ones who get played not saying i'm the smartest wisest person alive, but i'm sayin i don't really deal with women like some guys.. any guy who has seen the best of a woman, then later seen the worst of her probably knows exactly what i'm talkin about --------------- "do it" from dizzee rascal is one of my fave songs ever its also a great ringtone, just peep the beginning of it and u will see what i'm talkin about i posted the song in my video section for u just in case u haven't heard the song --------------- well those r my current random thoughts u all be good and stay fly peaCe

what do you think? Posted by poolboyjames on July 6, 2009 at 6:12 PM comments (0)I was listenin to limp bizkit's "chocolate starfish" cd and realized fred durst used a number of common catch phrases throughout the album
You better check yourself before you wreck yourself (coined by ice cube) Your mouth's writin checks that your ass can't cash Its my way or the highway you'll never know until u try The grass is always greener on the other side If you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself Everything happens for a reason What do u guys think of this? Is it too much? I kinda feel like maybe he should have spent more time on the lyrics so he wouldn't rely on such common and cliché lines I'm not dissin anyone or nothing.. Its just something to think about who's fault is it? Posted by poolboyjames on July 5, 2009 at 5:01 PM comments (0)i have some things to say about "16 and pregnant"
basically.. i think the parents cause their kids to get pregnant the reason i say this is because the kids are lacking support, guidance, love, another parent, or a listening ear which is the parent's fault support- every kid needs support, they need to know they have something/someone to fall back on, or someone cheering them on guidance- i shouldn't even need to speak about this one, because its so basic to what a parent is, but apparently many parents don't parent (u liked that didn't u) its basically like kids need to be able to come to u, oftentimes kids don't go to their parents, not because they don't want to, but because their parents don't make themselves approachable on that level.. every kid wants/needs guidance and advice but straight up i see parents just being condescending to their kids rather than talking to them like people.. so these kids just go it alone for the most part love- if ur kid doesn't feel loved trust me they'll seek love in other places which will most likely be negative because the negative route is the easy route another parent- kids in single parent homes oftentimes feel like they're missing something and they go out and seek to have a need fulfilled.. think about it.. it takes a male and a female to get pregnant, that just shows u that God wanted each kid to have a mom and a dad, life from a male perspective and life from a female perspective, a lot ofthese kids with just one parent naturally feel an incompleteness and not to mention they deal with a much bigger lack of attention.. for one they are missing a parent, for two the parent they do have may be dating and have their own life, leaving the kid to raise theirself in some instances a listening ear- listening to your kid in my opinion is the #1 most important thing but the thing parents just don't do, i think its parental pride, u had this kid so why should u listen to them? what can they tell you? as a parent u think, "my kid can't tell me anything but i can tell my kid everything" parental pride.. it ends up being a brick wall for the kid.. the kid cannot get through to the parent no matter what because the parent is simply bent on their own perspective and opinion at all times like on this one episode of "16 and pregnant" the girl was going with her mom to get a car, the girl said, "i was thinkin about a ford focus" the mom said "i hate ford focuses" and basically ended the conversation like i'm right, ur wrong and i don't wanna hear anything else about a ford focus.. i am sitting there like WHAT THE F*CK!? why would u shoot down your kid like that? like even if u don't want her to get that car, at least hear her out, what are the pros and cons of the car? discuss it.. like do u really expect this kid to obey you when u never listen to her? so to me these issues are the PARENT'S issues, like the parents cause their kids to get pregnant, and then when the kid gets pregnant then the parent acts like its such a big surprise and ish look at run's house, his daughters are good role models, they have respect for themselves, they are beautiful but they aren't out giving pearls to swine why do u think that is? he and his wife are madly in love with those girls, each time they talk on the phone its "i love you" .. those girls know inside that they are valued and loved jojo got caught with marijuana.. bad yes, but the dad called it a MISTAKE.. he didn't act like he was holier than thou and say "YOU'RE RUINING YOUR LIFE! YOU WANT TO SIT AROUND AND SMOKE YOUR LIFE AWAY!" no he let him know the issue was serious but maintained that we all make mistakes, and he had different members of the family talk to him.. the bible says "victory is won through many counselors" do i think run or his kids are perfect? not exactly, but i do think as a whole, he and his wife are good parents and many of these parents i see on "16 and pregnant" are not that good i see them and they are cynical, they are always seeing the negative in any situation, and the kid reason's "i can't make mom happy so i'm gonna seek approval elsewhere" then they come home pregnant i rest my case tired Posted by poolboyjames on July 5, 2009 at 11:54 AM comments (0)i haven't slept in days, its been hard for a minute
i have just been exhausted and going through a lot of issues for like a solid week yesterday when i went to rap, after i was done with my verse i had my hands on my knees and i was breathing hard trying to catch my breath no one has been around to look out for me or help me out.. everyone has been busy doing their own thing i'm tired of this puppets Posted by poolboyjames on July 3, 2009 at 10:00 AM comments (0)just watched a documentary about mainstream hip hop (yrs 2000-2006)
one thing that irritated me to no end was when the guy would go and have cats freestyle for him they'd always rap about killing someone or selling drugs or whatever and then he'd ask them why they have to rap like that and they'd say "that's what people want to hear" "no one wants to hear anything positive" "record labels won't accept anything but drugs/violence" ok there is so much wrong with this that i am not sure where to start like ok for one, if u are writing just what you think people want to hear in order to make money then you are writing for the wrong reason and also, when someone asks you about your lyrical content, why is it that everyone is responsible for it except you? like this whole belief system that only one thing sells is ridiculous i don't agree with people saying something 'different' or something 'positive' won't sell.. like if it won't sell, it's because u say it won't sell! if you are making music, then you are the one in the driver's seat own that position or hang up the mic i don't get it Posted by poolboyjames on July 3, 2009 at 2:05 AM comments (1)i was just watchin "brooke knows best" the show about hulk hogan's daughter
since her parents got divorced her mom got with a 19 yr old guy lol i understand that is crazy and weird but brooke has been avoiding her mom about it i thought about it and tried to put myself in brooke's shoes but i still don't get it like i don't think i'd ever want to disown my mom i don't even get along with my dad that much but i wouldn't want to disown him i mean, as much as i get upset with my parents sometimes its like i know they love me and i still get advice from them sometimes, i still fall back on them at times, and they have always been there for me, and i only have one mom and one dad so i don't understand brooke ignoring her mom.. like if u really care about ur mom and ur mom is dating a 19 yr old wouldn't u be all in your mom's business? "mom u need to be home by 10" "mom should u really be with this guy?" "mom this relationship probably won't last" i mean personally i imagine i'd be all in my mom's business trying to make sure i'm looking out for her because obviously she is making bonkers decisions right now i don't know, i suppose all of what i'm saying is hypothetical i just don't understand people sometimes beefing with their parents, like i get it when ur a teenager, but when u r in ur 20s like me and u look at ur parents and sometimes u notice their gray hair.. a lot of the issues in life don't seem that drastic anymore my sister was beefing with my mom like a few months ago or so, and that ish was ridiculous to me.. this was one area where i didn't feel my sister was making good judgement calls.. i tried to show her a different side to the matter, but she wasn't trying to hear anything but her own opinion at the time.. so she ended up really hurting my mom's feelings and my mom said that was one of the deepest pains she ever felt how ridiculous is that? who wants to hurt their parent like that? this is something i don't understand like yeah i get mad and i go off but i try to keep things in perspective and try not to hold a grudge holding a grudge against ur own mom to me for the most part is crazy so anyway, all i'm sayin is i don't really understand ignoring someone so close to u who raised you, who loves u more than anyone else, like i don't understand holding a grudge against that person, like i get annoyed sometimes with my dad but for the most part i feel like i wipe the slate clean with him over and over and that gives me peace to know that i'm not angry at him for something in 1998 so yeah, brooke hogan patch it up shorty.. ur mom might be crazy but she loves you straight up wake up! Posted by poolboyjames on July 2, 2009 at 3:44 PM comments (0)one thing that bothers me is when couples stay together in dumb circumstances
like i was watching dr phil and this guy was married to this chick or whatever and she was telling him the following: "ur no good in bed" "i've been with other men and it's been great" (sometimes citing specific instances) "ur a loser" "you're stupid" "my marriage to u was a mistake and i want a divorce" "get out" i try to stay bible minded so obviously divorce isn't something that i think is desirable in most circumstances, but i'm saying like.. ok what else could she do to this guy? like what are u trying to save or salvage? she doesn't respect you and she said she wants a divorce to me she has not only crossed the line but she has obliterated the line like, what is wrong with that guy? why is he putting up with this sort of thing? they said they were together for 5 yrs but married for 4 months, so why did he marry her in the first place? if they've been arguing and fighting for 5 yrs why marry her? my thing as a guy is, if a girl doesn't respect u then leave her alone, end of story.. don't call her, don't be her friend, nothing, just end it.. she no longer exists why stay around and get abused? u may think she is so pretty but turn on any rap video and u will see that pretty girls are really a dime a dozen i just don't get it.. like why do people complain about their relationships so much, like the entire reason for a relationship is to add value and good things to your life so if the bad outweighs the good then why are u with that person? and then with women u have it too u have women like "he beat me but i'm still with him" WHY? and why do people try to act so innocent when their spouse does something crazy? u saw the warning signs from the beginning! like males for example, if ur girl doesn't respect u its just a matter of time before she cheats on you and the pain makes u want to literally kill someone cut it off as soon as she makes some emasculating comment or as soon as you notice her dishonesty, or as soon as she starts playing her little games females, if a guy is calling you names he is doing that in an effort to control and manipulate you.. this is eventually going to elevate and u will probably be hit at some point, which can lead to him killing you in extreme circumstances just cut it off at the beginning "oh i'm an ugly b*tch? then u must not want my company then huh? peace." i just feel like people sometimes need to use foresight why be a victim of a relationship? why allow a gift to become a curse? like yeah sometimes relationships may take some effort but if there's no trust, or respect, or if there's name-calling, etc. etc. .. certain things are just deal-breakers! get a clue! don't call your friend and complain about ur spouse for three hours.. grow a backbone and move on respect yourself your pride and joy Posted by poolboyjames on July 1, 2009 at 12:24 AM comments (0)one thing i've noticed about parents is they have a lot of pride
once a person has a child their world changes people may tell u what to do before u have a kid, but afterwards, its assumed u know what u need to be doing also u now have this little person in your life who is showing u how much u have learned over the years, u can fix their every problem and keep them happy, u can feed them, give them advice, etc etc so with having a child comes this new sense of pride but this pride oftentimes works against a person with pride comes certain things like denial, for example if u are doing something negative to your child, and someone confronts u about it, chances are u won't listen because u are clutching that pride.. "i love my child, i would never do anything to hurt them, i'm a good parent" blah blah blah the bible says victory is won through many advisors so if u aren't taking in any advice chances are u may not exactly be headed for victory in a certain area of your life denial is like a river of excuses one unknowingly drowns theirself in they think they are sticking up for theirself and their actions by coming up with excuses.. however the opposite is true because by excusing theirself from responsibility, they are unknowingly surrendering all their power if u use an excuse to say "its not my fault" well then u have officially taken away your power to fix a matter parents have way too much pride in general if you ask me.. this is just my observation.. don't get me wrong, i think what i'm talking about is something we all can use and do better on, its just that parents seem to have a sense of pride which goes unacknowledged, pride which can lead to some ugly things in their childrens' lives my sister has kids and one thing i like about her is she is still impressionable, like if u say something to her about her kids she will listen which is a good trait a lot of other people unfortunately would rather drag their kids into the ground before they listened "to another person tell me how to raise my kids" anyway.. like i said, this message is for everyone, not just parents food for thought for anyone listening i suppose if u try to be humble u will only be helping yourself u will know what criticism is warranted and what is unwarranted, just make sure to be real with yourself ya dig? peaCe credit is due Posted by poolboyjames on July 1, 2009 at 3:45 AM comments (0)i wanted to say i think kanye west has had the best music videos of this decade
i don't really think you can disagree with me whoever u are, i just highly doubt u can disagree with me i can't even really embed his videos because they're not enabled for that due to them being on universal however basically he has done a lot with the music video artform.. he's pushed the limits of videos in general and blown the top off of the "hiphop music video" he's done some videos 2 or three times simply for the art of it and he does a lot of videos, like for example, on 808's and heartbreak he has done paranoid welcome to heartbreak heartless love lockdown amazing that's 5 videos on one album alone basically his videos are like amazing, best of this decade.. just wanted to say that oh by the way, check out his official link to his videos on his website http://www.kanyeuniversecity.com/#/video/ and one other thing still... i remember there was a 2nd version of the 'flashing lights' video and i read online that there was even a 3rd version, however these videos are not on his website for some reason ok i just found out the deal about the two other 'flashing lights' videos that are not available from wikipedia "West clarified on his blog he did not release the two videos. He had produced more than one version of the same video and only selected the one he was the happiest with; the rest were leaked." i personally still wish he would put these videos on his website i also hope he releases a dvd and/or blu-ray with all his videos one day word |
