I love Race Bannon..

Since I was a boy, I loved Race! Very handsome "silverdaddy" that was the travel companion of one Dr. Benton Quest. I always wanted to be Johnny and go on adventures with my best friend. Here is a video of where Race tries to get custody of the boys from Dr. Quest. I love it!

The mean reds....

Holly Golightly: You know those days when you get the mean reds?
Paul Varjak: The mean reds, you mean like the blues?
Holly Golightly: No. The blues are because you're getting fat and maybe it's been raining too long, you're just sad that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?

I am Holly Golightly. In the famous movie Breakfast at Tiffany's Audrey Hepburns character discirbes them as a horrible thing there like the blues only the blues is for when your sad the mean reds are for when you scared and you dont know what your scared of... I am currently feeling like this. It's hard. I feel like this character was written about me even through I wasn't born yet. I relate to her so much. Her real name in the movie not Holly... Like mine is not Derek. She's the life of the party surrounded by friends and acquaintances. She is a hard worker and came from a not so good family. "It's the mistake you always made, Doc, trying to love a wild thing. You were always lugging home wild things. Once it was a hawk with a broken wing... and another time it was a full-grown wildcat with a broken leg. Remember? You musn't give your heart to a wild thing. The more you do, the stronger they get, until they're strong enough to run into the woods or fly into a tree. And then to a higher tree and then to the sky. "

Life on hold

I'm going to go on a mini vacation on my life. Things are changing. I'll be back in a week or so. Keep good thoughts and hopes!

Book Of Mormon...

Well the Musical.....

I really want to go to New York and see The Book of Mormon Musical.

It's everything about the Mormon way but in a funny way. Like how they go door to door to recruit people for the church and share the scriptures with the people of Uganda. It also deals with a warload, famine, poverty and AIDS. Below is a Song that I am really into. There is Explicit lyrics.... Enjoy with caution

I am a highway.....

It's been a while since I have blogged... I mean really sat down and typed something meaningful out. My life has been busy with events, matters and time itself to allow me to take time. First comes down to work.

Job

I love my job. I am passionate about it and love that I have changed the lives of people. It has kept in me in shape and toned my legs. But yet it's not paying me enough to live life. I have a Champagne taste on a beer budget. I have been looking for a second job. It seems that there are so many other people out there trying to get that same job I am applying for. It hard i think to have a second job and trying to find a job during the day that will give me an hour or so to head home and refresh before the second job.

Family.

My family is doing well. My sister will graduate for Oregon State this upcoming weekend. I am so proud of here. She is the second in the family to graduate. She has worked so hard and spent much time and gave up social events and family time towards her degree. It's a huge payoff for her. She makes me proud and she is going to be awesome in the health field. GO RAC!!!

Myself-

I myself am doing well. I haven't been running in a week which is hard for me. I need to stay active so I do not get larger than I need to be. I will today start running again. 5-6 miles are on today. I am also going to start reading about. I can't care what's it about as long as I am not being a slong (a lazy way of being lazy in my own words) I need to challenge my mind.

Future

My future is well uncertain at the time being. I don't know what the future holds for me. All I can hope for is that it will turn out great!

Life lessons
