Dear Friend,

Today started out as a horrible day. It was one of those days where nothing goes right at all and you just feel like ripping your head off. I was at work today with the first headache and I couldn't sell one phone if i tried which made my day worse, but then things started to change because I thought of the big day I had a couple weeks ago. I came to work with a positive attitude and I wanted to succeed so I did. I did a personal best and sold 12 phones so it made my day very good. Even though I was having a tough time doing anything right today I found that if you concentrate on someething positive that has happened to you that it lightens the mood and makes your day much better just like it did to me.

My cousin and I have grown very close mostly because he moved here from New Mexico 4 years ago to work. He lived with us and I hung out with him everyday. He even took me to my first R rated movie which was always cool. On weekends we would go to movies or just go out to get away from school and work. One day, we were at home about to go eat and go bowling when he got a call that his mom/my aunt had passed away. He instantly fell to his knees in tears and could not stop crying and i tried to comfort him, but I found myself crying as well. This was a very tragic moment in my life and in the aftermath me and my cousin became even closer then before. We constantly would talk after this happened and me being there for him made things even better.

Often times I have found myself in situations where I can not handle and I don't know what to do. After relationship breakups I'm often hurt and do not feel like doing anything. Something that has always helped me get over this is the power of music. Music is always something that has helped me do anything I want. When I'm sad and not feeling good, listening to music and drowning into takes my mind off everything else. It is the most effective thing I have ever done, because no matter what the situation is I can rely on music as my escape to difficult situations.

Dear Friend,

So today in class we were asked to start thinking ideas for our secret santa and everyone had to draw a name out of a box. I drew Megan, one of my old girlfriends!! I was very worried about this because i still had feelings for Megan so deciding on a gift would be very hard. I decided a very inexpensive and nice gift would be if i made a mixtape which could maybe help me get her back. I really love this girl so i labeled it "Just Me and You". It has love type songs on it like these
J.Holiday-Suffocate
Usher-Appetite
Marvin Gaye-Sexual Healing
Ne-yo-Closer
Gavin Rossdale-Love Remains the Same
Nickelback-Animals
Gavin Degraw-We belong together
Ne-yo- Do You
T.I.-Whatever you Like
and finally.....once again.....
J.Holiday-Suffocate
I chose Suffocate as the first and last song because I find myself listening to it all the time about her so it would be nice if she started by hearing it and also finished hearing it.
I hope this mixtape turns out to be the type of thing that whenever she listens to it she realizes I'm out here waiting for her and that it gives her a warm feeling knowing I haven't gone anywhere.


When it comes to describing my family is is very hard, but when I think hard about it I think that....
My dad could very well be the junior Donald Trump!
My mom reminds me of Martha Stewart (minus the jail part)
My brother is more annoying then a fly
My cousin is almost wiser then Abe Lincoln
My uncle looks just like the kernel from KFC.

With Best Regards,
