What Are You Afraid Of?

It’s the beginning of 2019, so that means it’s around that time of year when the ‘new year, new me’ motto comes back for about 3 weeks and then disappears until Jan 1 of next year. Personally, I don’t like to make new years resolutions for the simple fact that I don’t think my goals […]

28 Years of Anger – The Journey So Far

I’ve wanted to reflect on some events both recent and not so recent that I have gone through…. with this, I’m hoping that anybody else going through similar emotions can read what I’ve felt and not feel alone. I’m also hoping that some people I’ve hurt or pushed away in the past can understand where […]

Bigger Than Me.

I never know how to start these things… should I be witty? Serious? Use a quote? Post a song? Tell you a joke? Anyways. 2017 was a big year for me in many ways… probably too many to list. Some major milestones include; my responsibility at Five Four (soon to be Menlo House) grew exponentially, […]

Time.

So, it’s been a few months. Tonight was the first night in a while that I’ve had a chance to slow down and relax. In the past few months, work (and side work) have been incredibly busy, on top of having consistent visitors from Canada, all while attempting to still have a social life. In no way […]

Nana.

Today’s a day that I’ve been dreading for a while… my Nana finally passed away. It’s been a mix of emotions this morning since reading a Facebook comment (yes, I found out via a public comment from my Great Aunt on one of my pictures from Indonesia) and a follow-up email.   How do I […]

Views from a man in the 3?

I guess I’m going to have to change my blog name – I’m moving to LA. Scared. Excited. Nervous. Curious. Anxious. Ready – these are a few of the 1,000 feelings running through my head at the time of this writing (and basically every day since I accepted the new role). I’ve always had an inkling to […]

The Illusion of Infinity

So the title may be a bit misleading, but trust me that this is not a blog about math. Please continue to read on without being worried about having to dig up your high school calculus skills. A growing trend that I’ve noticed with how society functions in 2016 is this idea that we are living in […]

Closing Out 2015.

I had originally thought that I wanted to cover a variety of topics for this year’s blog posts… but the more I thought about it, the more I figured I should keep things concise. If there is one thing that I have learned this year – it’s that sometimes less is more. Don’t get me […]

Nate.

So, this isn’t a topic that I have delved too much into this year but I felt it was long overdue. Here goes. Who was Nate? There are a ton of words you could use to describe him. I don’t think it does justice to try and use just a few adjectives though, so I […]

Another Year.

2015 – The year I had hoped would be radically different from 2014. In some ways it was, in some ways it wasn’t. As I approach my 26th spin around the sun (as my good friend Nate used to say), I wanted to take a look back and discuss a few things that I haven’t […]
