Politics and Politicians go hand in hand

So I just got back from the debate held by ASNMC and man oh man I admire a few of the candidates they really know how to cater to the young adults. Come on lets tell them what they wanna hear. Lets say more money for the college but what do they do? Vote against the college budget. Lets talk about public safety, hmm more money for the cops, but how? Oh I don't know why not reduce the amount of incompetant idiots in capital hill and staff in the executive and legislative offices. Jeeze we all know that it is expensive to run for office, do you all honestly think that the people funding the trip on this campaign trail won't be compensated. So one candidate said "its who you know, not what you know". As if, I wonder who will be in his cabinet or be a special advisor to governor? Like we all don't know. Come on now? I am so annoyed how things run here in the cnmi that I won't even start on most topics. The things that matter is definitely DOCTORS for CHC, MONEY for the COLLEGE and JOBS for the GRADUATES! Thats it! Not like taxes.

I am ok...

Last night was a rather strange but alright night.

It kicked off with me and my good buddy patiently waiting for my mom to finish getting and head out to the christening party.

It was great, I enjoyed myself. I was soo happy to see all the people who came out to celebrate Kiki becoming a catholic. Good Job Byron and Mona! Congratulations Kiki!

While at the party I was kinda on edge, considering I knew nobody but my Kumaire and Kumpaire and their families there. Luckily I had company with me. It was good, I will admit when it comes to that, and carrying the baby I am a chicken fagget but yea lol.

I met up with my candidate for the CNMI senate and man oh man did we have a great conversation. I was impressed with her passion towards our students and willingness to assist the college kids gain extra skills that they would need in getting their foot through the door. We both agreed that it is a dog eat dog world out there, and preparation is the way to make sure our grads don't get eaten alive.

On to the rest of the night...

I appreciate my friend Jenenerz going with us to the party, but aii sus her minor little joke got me in trouble. Its ok, my friend is more important.

Ha ha so then we met with more friends later that night, who wanted company, hung around while they did laundry and then back home.

Weird and totally random night, but I got to spend time with people I like hanging around with and we got to celebrate Kiki. yay

so til the next journey...

would you?

Many times we get burned, or someone lets us down, or just bad luck.

I have a question. If you knew ahead of time the outcome of whatever it is you had decided on, whether it was awesome or just plain, well suckish, would you still do it?

many of us say I don't know. But sometimes the memories on that bumpy path is worth the heart ache and pain. Right?

Lighting that match to start that fire is still exciting. So play with caution, but still enjoy.

1 2 3....GO!!!!

When I was a freshman in High School I had a video camera attached to my head. My passion and love of my life was video editing and directing. I loved it soo much I would lose sleep over it.

When I moved to Hawaii, slowly my passion faded and my love was replaced by my first love. It was gone in a heartbeat the person who I thought I was no longer was awake. Sleeping for a little over a decade. I had forgotten how much it made me happy to watch and show off the latest production.

12 years later... the monster has awaken.

Now the creative and obsessive me is slowly coming back to show the world how things are seen through my eyes.

I have produced the very first of future many videos as seen and told through me to you.

So look out because I will give it one more try... wish me luck!!!

lights, camera, ACTION!

The people you meet on this jourmey....

some stay permanent and some just come in, do their damage and walk out, never hearing from them again. But, the best ones are the ones who have an impact with wonderful, life altering, pointing you in the right direction results....

I see it as the people you come across on this path and the people who walk with you some of the way play a role on who you are.

We all have people like that bring wonderful memories and sadly, some leave scars of remembrance.

Its ok.... thats life.

I think its awesome! Cherish every moment that you smile, because you know what? You can never redo it again.
