she's not making sense Posted by poolboyjames on March 26, 2010 at 11:33 PM comments (0)i was talkin to a girl about what i could offer in a relationship
i told her i can fix things around the house, i am fun to be around, i can provide advice and a listening ear, i'm good atcleaning things etc. then i asked her what she could provide in a relationship she said "i'm a sociologist, i'm in school pursuing a doctorate, i'm a great woman, i'm certified in real estate" her response didn't make sense to me i didn't ask her whats on her resume and "i'm a great woman" was incredibly vague to me.. what is that supposed to mean? it really actually sounds kinda like conceited to me.. like who told u u are a great woman? her answer was so far from making sense to me it was insane u have 3 resume entries then a vague statement about embodying some sort of feminine greatness i mean ok for the 3 resume entries.. THAT WAS NOT THE QUESTION.. i asked what she could provide IN A RELATIONSHIP.. NOT TO SOCIETY i was thinking maybe she'd say "i can give massages, i am supportive, i am not judgemental, i can cook, i can give fashion advice" u know.. basic practical things that can be useful in a relationship.. not a TITLE, not something u got from an institution, like just your down to earth stripped down qualities that may be of some use and as for the "i'm a great woman" comment, that was just ridiculous.. what makes u this "great woman" ? and do u have the right to deem yourself that? ....and i'm all about inner confidence but when u agree to say something outloud at least have a reason for it for me its like sometimes i don't get girls like who are they trying to impress sometimes? sometimes i just think to myself.. "where do they get this stuff?" just listening to her response in general reminded me of how different men and women are i have a theory in general that women give men what women want and men give women what men want this is where the disconnect is when u find a woman who gives men what men want, u have someone who has a lot of success with the opposite sex when u find a man who gives women what women want, u have someone who has a lot of success with the opposite sex recognizing this is key it takes some stepping out of ur box, but i'd say its worth it buuuuut i'm out peaCe

the pieces may be forming Posted by poolboyjames on March 25, 2010 at 7:51 AM comments (0)i was thinking about manhood and my earliest ideas of it
i always thought of my dad as being very capable of achieving success at many difficult tasks i always thought like wow he's big, he has muscles, he isn't controlled by his emotions, he thinks everything through, he gets things done, he finds tools and fixes things, if he doesn't have the tools then he creatively finds a way to get the job done despite that, he spends hours doing things that look super boring but are really important to our family like fixing plumbing, or figuring out taxes, budgets, etc. etc. etc. i grew up seeing my dad execute tasks all the time.. fixing cars, building things.. just doin all kinds of things (^^takes a moment to thank God for my dad) anyway i have always thought like "wow i'm in my 20s and i STILL don't see how i could do what my dad does!" but those thoughts are beginning to melt away i think.. and i think the reason is because i find myself equipped to handle a lot of things on my own these days like if i have a family one day and we need something in our house.. i feel like there's no real reason why i shouldn't be able to handle it in my own way cars keep changing and many people get repairs so even tho i may not know about cars, maybe i can be prepared for car troubles by having a car fund as for around the house.. i already know how to do basic plumbing on toilets as well as sinks and one major area these days is technical support.. and i have learned a decent amount about tech stuff from music and from setting up internet connections n other various things so maybe one day i will be able to lead a family (leading is synonymous with servitude) with the same amount of ability my dad has always had with our family i can also see that from my dad i have inherited the gift of foresight recently it has seemed like a bit of a curse because i always think ahead in a way.. and the issue with that is, it makes u and your life come across as boring.. i actually enjoy my life but being my age u sometimes feel like u don't fit in because while many people are concerned with simply "having fun", u are concerned with the future and what all your actions may bring but i have to conclude that still, it is more gift than curse, because thinking about manhood.. i see like "wow, this foresight i have will likely be the very thing that makes me ready and capable" foresight will shed light on a rainy day and pave the way for the future.. so i shouldn't have a hint of disdain for it overall my thought is that.. wow, its looking like i'm either all grown up today, or its just around the corner successful manhood has always seemed like too big a job for me, but recently i feel able btw here are a few other traits i learned from my dad: patience with those weaker than u high expectations from those u care about dealing with YOUR business YOURself integrity don't sweat small things but i'm out peaCe hi Posted by poolboyjames on March 24, 2010 at 12:23 AM comments (0)"When the decider in your mind is puzzled, the doer in your mind is paralyzed."
^^saw this quote today its been something i've been struggling with a lot lately in simple decisions and larger potentially life-changing decisions too i've been finding ways to get over tough decisions a lot of times i revert to writing.. i get a sheet of paper and write down all my options or what is causing me anxiety or a list of things i want to do i've noticed the more power and freedom u have, the more u have to be a good steward of decisions because of this it definitely seems wise to keep good company cuz a lot of decisions are hard enough to make without people trying to steer u the wrong way ------------ i got new headphones.. i got the wesc joints.. u can only get them at pacific sun they sound dope.. look cool.. they were $40 -------------- got a new mp3 player.. my zune was 80gigs.. the one i just got is 4gigs quite a downgrade but i didn't want to spend a lot it has some positives its madd small and light.. so i can clip it to my shirt, plus the screen is like minimalist so the battery lasts like bonkers ----------------- i talked to a cute girl at the gym today.. she seemed to kinda give me attitude but i expect it so its nothin whatevs there's MADD fine girls in clarksville overall def. no reason to ever get hung up on any ONE chick --------------- much luv. new words Posted by poolboyjames on March 24, 2010 at 5:13 PM comments (0)i started doin a rhyme in class today
here's what i wrote: a mammoth surrounded by ants/ used to try to relate but i can't/ i can't hear u up here/ i don't perceive small talk/ half-way through your sentence my attention has gone off/ i like the words its supposed to be a cross between a rap and a speech its definitely not done, but its about how people just don't understand or get why u do what u do chillan Posted by poolboyjames on March 23, 2010 at 8:44 PM comments (0)
pic of me w/ peace sign n headphones the top sitcoms Posted by poolboyjames on March 21, 2010 at 8:01 PM comments (0)i saw a commercial and it said seinfeld was named the #1 sitcom of all time
ok i disagree i think the number 1 sitcom of all time is roseanne and the #1 cartoon is daria people say seinfeld and cosby were some of the best to me personally.. cosby is dope... BEFORE U WATCH ROSEANNE like when u watch cosby its cool and heartwarming and everything, but roseanne makes it look lame to me roseanne seems way more down to earth than cosby.. i feel like roseanne is more believable and definitely more dynamic than cosby for example a cosby episode will be like.. theo wants a shirt and so his sister makes him one but it looks crazy so he's embarassed to wear it an episode of roseanne will be like jackie got her ass kicked by her boyfriend so dan beats him up then gets taken to jail and his daughter has to go bail him out ^^both of those were real scenarios in each show that i just remembered off the top of my head roseanne like deals with more topics, its kinda like cosby is for kids and roseanne is for teens if that makes any sense.. like roseanne is more mature and more layered in its content i've come to the conclusion that seinfeld is a bit overrated.. its very interesting because its like so much rooted in things u think but never say outloud.. so it broke a lot of ground, however it still doesn't hold a candle to roseanne in my opinion --------------------------------------------- now daria is the best cartoon because... i mean ok i don't know why but everyone seems to relate to daria, and if u don't relate to daria, the show is still funny on a basic level the writing was very deep yet it still had jokes that little kids could laugh at the silly stuff might catch u but then the complex things in the plot and in daria's thought processes are what keep u coming back for more also one thing about daria is it stayed good.. the entire length of the show up to the finale every single episode was amazing.. as the plot began to change it stayed good oh daria is kissing her best friend's boyfriend.. R U SERIOUS? way out of character but they pulled it off without jumping the shark.. the show began to show daria's flaws just as most teen girls will eventually see that they are not perfect even if they have made a habit of making fun of everyone around them for the entire length of high school i actually cried on the last episode of daria in both a combination of "this episode is awesome" as well as "this show was awesome" (^^u dnt have to tell anyone that bit of info) ------------------------------------------ both shows were amazing.. and now u know my top 2 sitcoms whenever i mention daria someone says "i'm just like daria" or "i miss daria" and roseanne is just plain undeniable in its execution of humor and drama hope u guys felt me on this one peaCe! guys Posted by poolboyjames on March 20, 2010 at 6:40 PM comments (0)today this girl hit me up and i was like what's good with u?
she said her boyfriend broke up with her i was like why did he do that? ur a good girl, what is his problem? she said "me and his friend were playing and i grabbed at his junk" LOL that was hilarious anyway it made me think ok if ur a girl reading this i got some game for u the longer u are with a guy, the more he will be jealous over you after a while in a relationship a guy will eventually see u as his own the more he sees u like this, the less he will be able to handle u doing things that may make him jealous one thing about women is, oftentimes they think jealousy will ignite a man's heart for a woman, so they purposely make men jealous hoping they will come running really the opposite will likely happen and he will drop u quick if u go too far i don't know if what this girl did was that bad, i'm not judging anything she did at all cuz for all i know her boyfriend could've already been looking for a way out.. who knows all i'm saying is playing with a guy's jealousy over you is probably not something u want to do just like women likely have their own line-in-the-sand areas.. this is one of mens touchy areas basic disrespect is another one its like if u talk bad to your boss u get fired.. its clockwork just like that maybe one day i will talk about all the touchy places women should avoid with men because (if ur a girl) if u avoid a few things u will get a lot further with men in general than a lot of other women so maybe i will do a do's and don'ts one day the best fresh prince episodes Posted by poolboyjames on March 20, 2010 at 8:33 AM comments (0)i was thinking today about the best episodes of the fresh prince
i'd say the best episodes were the first episode and the episode where will's dad came to visit on the first episode will and uncle phil got into it and it finally came to a head at the end where will said he knows uncle phil's type.. and uncle phil said he knew will's type then when the words were exchanged will just sat down at the piano and uncle phil walked away.. then will started playing a piece by beethoven and uncle phil stopped in shock and surprise i felt like that was one of the most intelligent episodes of any show i've ever seen back then the show was a little less of a comedy and more of 30 minutes of culture shock so the impact was immense --------------------- when will's dad came to town that was another classic this was a dynamic episode because uncle phil and will's dad had history whereas will didn't know any of the details about his dad will's dad's name was lou uncle phil didn't hate lou but.. u know the Bible says something like "the fear of the Lord is hatred of evil" meaning, if u are a God-fearing person in otherwords a person who tries to live by God's morals then a lot of times u will naturally hate evil or wrong behavior its not that u exactly hate the person but its hard for u to accept a person who continually does what u feel is wrong in this case, uncle phil hated how lou continually deserted his family, so uncle phil had very little patience for lou's presence will was enjoying time with his dad that he never got before so will would see uncle phil's attitude toward lou and lash out at uncle phil.. then at the end lou left again and will was there feeling like a complete fool and confused about everything but then uncle phil was there for him.. the whole time uncle phil was just trying to look out for will and that didn't become apparent to will until lou left this brought about the most emotional episode of the show ever ----------------- the acting on both of these episodes was amazing i remember on the dad episode, i remember seeing that as a kid and finally understanding what kids without dads went through cuz when i was little kids used to be like wow james u guys live in a nice house and u have both ur parents.. i remember thinking like.. what is so good about having both parents? but i guess to some kids who maybe saw their parents go throughdivorce or who never got to see their dad, it was important.. that episode kinda made me understand that situation and the first episode.. that episode encompassed the entire show for some artists in music, i can point to one song that represents everything that artist represents.. and that's how the pilot is to the fresh prince.. its an idea that is so layered that u can create movies and tv shows and books off that one idea.. that's why i think it was so great it was a rather simple episode but it carried so much weight with it -------------------- soooooo just throwin that out there keep it bonk peaCe cool Posted by poolboyjames on March 19, 2010 at 8:38 PM comments (2)i had a number of ideas for things to talk about today but i seem to have forgotten them all
sooo... today at school was cool, one of my classes was canceled and the rest went well in theater all week we watched 'a raisin in the sun' ..the version with sidney portier and it was amazing i watched it in high school and i remember it being decent, but watching it this time it was straight up incredible on every level ...i wanted to have more to say but i dnt know what else to talk about sooooo holla at me |
