Eleven out of Thirty One

Due to my busy schedule this month I was unable to meet my goal for 31 posts for October. I have been slaving away on assignments and studying for exams which never seem to end. I did however get the materials for my workbench on the 20th of October, and built it over that weekend. As for my projects for my portfolio, it is slowly coming together but I am planning to get most of it done in November. I even have taken that month off work so I can everything done. On top of all that I am taking part in NaNoWriMo, with a goal of 100k words in 30 days and I might even try and get my VHF operators licence. Like that isn't enough I would like to complete all my major projects for geography. I am also planning to take an income tax course to help increase my meagre income next year.

I am also in the process of acquiring a Catalina 30, I shall not say more it is not final yet. But I shall post about it when I get it.
UPDATE: I looked into taking out a loan but due to my low income I am unable to and my parents are not willing to help out on this. So I have got to pass on this opportunity. However I am going to budget and save so when one arises in the future I can possible take advantage of it. 

As The Essentials of Living Aboard Boat says (on page 33) "There are a lot of things that don't grow on trees, such as money. Money does not grow on trees. But boats do.
...Houses grow on trees, meaning that a better will always come along, even if that deal does not exist today. When you that a great deal is passing you by, don't be nervous, because there is another one coming."
(Page 258): "Be patient and thorough when choosing a boat - and remember that boats, good and bad, grow on trees." 
I own the book and I recommend it to all those considering living about a boat.


I was going to write about Holidays tonight, but with having a test tomorrow and my busy schedule I have to cut this one shorter.

The Beginning & Procastination

Today is the beginning towards a brighter future,
Towards a journey down the road less traveled,
All in hope to achieve what I aspire,

Challenges laying everywhere,
heartache and despair,
But that was then and this is now,
moving on from the sorrow,
down the road to a brighter tomorrow.


I haven't written any poetry since 2009, which is ironic since i seem to be able to write more when my mind is weighed down with many things. This year to say the least has been really shitty. It started out great but the shit hit the fan and destroyed the house in the summer. So I've been slowly rebuilding... and recovering from all that. Mainy of my friends say I deserve better, but after what i went through well, they couldn't be more correct. And i've gotta agree with one of my moms friends who gave me some really good wisdom. I am just gonna sum it up... Young and Dumb and Full of Cum. Simply put don't rush to settle down 'cause the next thing you know you'll be signing will be the divorce papers.

Anyways, my live simply hasn't been easy. I feel some days like world are against me. But that could just be an over exaggeration. Since I have a lot of things I am doing plus the fact that I know so much about how the world works (Geography and Sociology courses I have/am taking in college) makes it kinda... interesting.

My idea of this blog is that it will be a place for me to write what is on my mind and a place to talk about becoming and architect while changing my lifestyle from being a land lubber to possibly a sailor. Sailor 'cause I would be living on a sailboat.

Like the title stated, I have other things I must get done but I am writing this instead. I am going to challenge myself on top of everything else I am doing to write once everyday here.
