Starts With One

There's a few things that I don't understand completely so I must ask questions.

Seriously, what is the point of religion? I know its a guide to morality, but what's the point of gathering or conforming to such central ideas? If you know me, you know I'm a good person for the most part, but have totally different beliefs, especially when it comes to faith and religion. That's not to say I don't believe in God, because I totally do. But this whole attachment to an institution that tells you to fear god or you will burn in hell isn't my thing. Some people go as far as to say that they have a "calling", or whatever, but how? I know the explanation for it, but where's the proof? I'm a lost soul, but there's still a chance of saving me. If you can provide proof and a reasonable and NOT irrational explanation, then consider me converted. Maybe.

The other thing is, why are people afraid of being informed? Like with politics, society, and religious beliefs. Are they afraid theyre gonna flake? There's nothing wrong in coming to a realization and learning you were wrong. At least you've come to your senses and become more in touch with the world and gotten rid of that ignorance you kept carrying in your pockets. I know some people that I talk to on a regular basis dont like it when I criticize music for being corporate or talk about politics and how much of a fail this capitalist system and goverment is. Most people just say they dont care. But they should, because that's the kind of attitude that enables capitalists to run the economy to the ground. So my question again, why don't people like to learn or be informed of the things that will make them uncomfortable?

It's the year 2009 and we live in America. It's not mandatory to walk in a straight line.

How To Make The Best Of The Easter Weekend In 3 Easy Steps

1. Pick up a friend from the airport, grab some Mexican beer and rent a hotel room at the beach.

My friend Juan flew in from New Mexico this weekend, making the perfect time to runaway to the beach. Picked him up at 10am in Mcallen, and were on our way. We stopped in Port Isabel for some Wing Stop and some other necessities like a football, sand castle molds, and an ice chest to fill with Corona and Tecate. Mission accomplished.

"Oh hell yea, I wanna be a sea turtle!"

"My turn to be the seahorse now."

Tecate + limon y sal + SPI = FTW

Me and Juan relaxing under the sun clouds.

No Diving. Just Drinking.

Upon leaving or entering, always take a photo with the classic sign.

2. Have a little bit of bbq and then head to a DGE show.

I got home Saturday afternoon, and just dropped my bags at the door and crashed on the couch. A few hours later I went to my brother's apt for a little bbq/celebration for my nephews b-day. After that was over, Juan and I headed over to Las Palmas Race Track in Mission to catch the Silverstein show. I was running late already but Silverstein and Bless The Fall were of more importance to me. When I got there, A Static Lullaby was on their last song, which happened to be their cover of "Toxic" by Britney Spears. Bless the Fall was totally awesome, and Silverstein was off the heezy fo sho. I don't think i've ever moshed, jumped and sang my lungs out this much at a show before. And get this, Juan was tying his shoe and the Silverstein drumstick fell right in front of him, so he picked it up, that lucky fck. This show was FTW, most def.

This kiddo was in town and I heart him.

BTF - FTW

Beau Bokan welcome to Mission, TX

Silverstein!

Danggg Shane, you're kinda like the mann.

3. Have a gathering of sorts with plenty of food and plenty of easter eggs.

Easter is always fun when you have lots of easter eggs and family and friends around. What's not fun though, is the mess left afterwards. We had a family get together at Memorial Park in Edinburg and cooked plenty of food. I'm not into bbq that much so I usually just have potato salad, rice and pico de gallo w/ tortilla chips.

Conditions for an Easter egg war were perfect. When you have sunny skies in the evening and boat loads of easter eggs, you know its gonna go down. The number one rule in easter egg warfare is to always have an adequate supply of easter eggs for your arsenal and never get caught off guard. Those are the worse. Sure enough, it got durrtayy. We all know mexicans always have put flour in their easter eggs to get someone good. No mames guey, there were cartons upon cartons of these nukes and everyone was covered in harina. That's not it though, after those finished, some personal battles broke out and they started loading their easter eggs with whatever food they could find. Beans, pico de gallo, rice, cake frosting, baby formula, and melted chocolate candies all found their way into egg shells. If you think thats hardcore, the matches escalated with real eggs! Whoah nelly! Hardcore egg fights broke out. Luckily I was not involved in any of that, so I was almost as clean as a button. Crazyyyy day.

Christian and J.T. on the offensive

Oh snap!

So this was my weekend folks. Relaxation at the beach, hardcoreness at a show, and feast and frenzy with family on Easter. It was totally good, how was yours?

Discover The Unseen

Every War Has A Chance.

I was super nervous this morning when I went to class because I had to do my presentation today. My topic was Invisible Children. It's a non-profit organization dedicated to stop the child soldier crisis in northern Uganda. I totally nailed it though, initiated class discussion and my nervousness quickly went away. It was only supposed to be about 10 mins long but went on for more than that. I feel proud of myself, because people we're really interested in it. I encourage you to visit www.invisiblechildren.com to find out more, and watch the documentary Invisible Children: Rough Cut, that started this whole movement.

Also on a side note, this is something that's really important to me. I feel like I have a connection with the world through music, politics, science, and philosophy. I always have my head stuck in those things, and if ever I can make a difference through awareness, I'll be glad to. There's a lot more happening in the world than what you see on CNN.

I have no iPod today and it's killing me! Turns out it's been running since the last two days when I took the headphones off, i forgot to turn it off and lock it. I'm gonna be totally bored for the rest of the day until I get home. I was gonna use it to calm me down before my presentation, but I didnt have it, so I had to dish it out. Thankfully, everything turned out fine.

Gonna get some Vitamin Water, because I've been craving one. I dont know what to eat.

P.S.
There's no classes Thursday, so that makes me a lucky dawg. I have the rest of the week off starting after my next class. Fuck yesss
