Family Matters
Spent the last weekend at my cousins wedding, despite how tired I - it was really fun. I don't notice how much I enjoy my family until I stop seeing them for so long. Maybe the distance keeps us closer. What always gets me whenever I have one of these family reunions is how fast time is passing. Its hard to see cousins that I use pick up as babies now taller than me. I guess its true what they say, life does not go backwards - only forward.

David Viscott
"To fail is a natural consequence of trying, To succeed takes time and prolonged effort in the face of unfriendly odds. To think it will be any other way, no matter what you do, is to invite yourself to be hurt and to limit your enthusiasm for trying again."

Fallen Will Rise
Yeah I saw it, and I will look anyone in the eye and tell them that I liked TRANSFORMERS 2: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN. Of course it won't win any Oscars nor is the script very good but if you want an escape from reality then you should watch this movie. Tons of explosions, cool action sequences, amazing special effects and long slow motions scenes of Megan Fox running - how can you go wrong. For good idea spend ten bucks and check out this film, and for the full effect watch it on Imax its even better.
Playlist
Current songs that I've have on repeat are: 1) JAY-Z, History 2) KANYE WEST, Amazing 3) JOHNNY CASH, God's Gonna Knock You Down 4) JAY-Z, Death of Autotune 5) ANIMAL COLLECTIVE, My Girl.

Beautiful
After listening to his latest album, I have to say that I'm not too impressed with it. It has been five years and EMINEM just seems to be banging out the same old stuff. Having heard the album once very few songs resonated with me and it appears the guy hasn't grown at all over the years. The one song I did like was BEAUTIFUL and I love the music video even more. It is shoot really well and it represents the city of Detroit proudly. To watch the video click HERE.

Yoga
When I started doing it I hated it. I couldn't stand bikrams yoga (hot), it smelled, I felt dizzy, the poses were too hard, and despite there being half naked girls I swore to myself that I would never come back. Man am I glad that I defeated that voice in my head that was telling me it's too hard. I've been going for a few months now, about three times a week and I love it. I even find myself encouraging people to go to it. It isn't for everyone but yoga can be a great thing to do for yourself. It's just you vs you for 90 minutes and its mind over matter. Give it a try, don't be afraid to climb out of your comfort zone.

Mike Tyson
"When I come out I have supreme confidence. But I'm scared to death. I'm afraid. I'm afraid of everything. I'm afraid of losing. I'm afraid of being humiliated. But I'm confident. The closer I get to the ring the more confident I get. The closer, the more confident. All during training I've been afraid of this man. I think this man might be capable of beating me. I've dreamed of him beating me. For that I've always stayed afraid of him. The closer I get to the ring the more confident I get. Once I'm in the ring I'm a god. No one could beat me. I walk around the ring but I never take my eyes off my opponent....During the fight I'm supremely confident. I'm making him miss and I'm countering. I'm hitting him to the body; I'm punching him real hard. And I'm punching him, and I'm punching him, and I know he's gonna take my punches. He goes down, he's out. I'm victorious. Mike Tyson, greatest fighter that ever lived."

Charlie Brown
“Are you upset little friend? Have you been lying awake worrying? Well, don't worry...I'm here. The flood waters will recede, the famine will end, the sun will shine tomorrow, and I will always be here to take care of you." - Charlie Brown to Snoopy
Benjamin
On of my favorites movies last year and now of all time is THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON. I don't know why, but after watching the movie for the second time this past weekend I was even more touched by it then my first viewing. The film caused me to think of my own mortality and what sort of life I was leading. It is such a simple story but it reinforces my belief that everyone has a unique tale and there is no true path to life, we have to forge our own way. I hope you can spare three hours of your life to enjoy this entertaining story of a man and appreciate the power he and we all have to live a life that were can be proud of.
