Wake Up & Suit Up! (On Tap 112)

Monday you look real pretty.

Allo Hello people of the interwebs and welcome to Monday! The weekend has now past unfortunately and here in front of us lies a new week that starts today.

It's time to wake up, freshen up, and suit up!

My weekend was rather long, productive, and entertaining. Who would have thought that watching a college soccer game behind the goal in the rain would be so hilarious? Haha. Along with other random events throughout the weekend, it truly was a good weekend for yours truly. Especially with ending it under the Fall night sky porch chillin', music listenin', and beer drinkin'.

Yup. Fall is officially here.

Cheers.

Back to Monday. It is here and most likely you're thinking it's gonna leave a bad taste in your mouth, take your money, and leave you for dead on the side of the road. Alright, maybe that image is a little too gruesome...but anyways, stop with the negative imagery! The majority of the world is thinking nearly the same as you because Monday just has a bad taste in people's mouth. 

However, a good start leads to a great week. So clean out those glasses of yours, pick out that dress that make you feel and look good, press your favorite suit & tie, and walk out that door head up and chest out. 

You are gonna have a good day. Any hatred or haters comes your way? Wave 'em off.

You have a life to live.

(Sorry GTA V, I gotta go but I'll be back to cause more mayhem in Los Santos!)

Have A Great Monday! Love The Face and Also Yours.

The Daily: Drop The B.S. (Not Your Bachelor's)

The-Undone-Man has shown your rage in picture form.

We all have experienced that initialed word that I mentioned in the fancy title up above. B.S. otherwise known as "bullshit" is unfortunately a common occurrence that we run into on this rock on the daily. Unfortunately, some days when we run into it when it's in top form and starts piling more and more crap on top to make others miserable. And while it rots our minds and demeanor, B.S. just sits there laughing it's ass off while giving you the finger because you have fallen victim to it's horrid game.

So what can you do? Simple.

Drop It.

When people don't like something in particular, they thrown it away. If something taste funky, they spit it out. If a certain location looks suspicious, they make a U-Turn. A person treats them unfairly? Cuts them loose. So why can't people do something similar to these actions when dealing with the crappy parts of their life story?

You run into a raging customer at the cashier, your B.F.F. has turned into an instant douche-bag, your jeans suffer a rip due to a trip and fall, bills, bills, and more bills, an argument arises between you and your spouse, family starts getting irritated with you and your actions, work is turning from a joy to and absolute nightmare, things just aren't going your way and seems like everything you do just goes South...

Seem familiar?

Things are not all rose pedals, pretty rainbows, and cotton candy unicorns in this life. Although a cotton candy unicorn does sound badass right about now...anywho, life does has it's rough patches here and there; Some people experience them more often than others. When things like that suddenly pop into your sanctuary, simply look at it and then drop it on it's head. What I mean is don't instantly blow up like a Nuclear Strike in Modern Warfare 2 when something goes wrong or your a victim of a bad circumstance.

Simply, take a step back (mentally, physically, or both!) and breathe. Look at the situation at hand and play out the possible outcomes of the situation in your head and pick your poison. Then once the conclusion and the credits roll after the matinee has shown, please exit the theater in a classy fashion. B.S. also has a lasting affect on people almost similar to a thriller or suspense flick and it may come out in spurts well after the event has passed. In this case, do something to get your mind off of it; read a book/magazine, work-out at the gym, rage on a video game, talk to a buddy, turn up the music and zone out, have a drink with the girls or guys...DO SOMETHING!

"You struggle with your demons and you conquer them."

-Kinky Friedman

Like I said, it's unfortunate that B.S. type situations do exist. However, that doesn't give you the right to turn into a bullshitter yourself because that just doesn't fit you. Instead of talking B.S., drop it. Your mind and sanity will thank you kindheartedly if not now but well on in your future. Take your future into your own hands and stomp a mud-hole into any form of B.S. that comes your way and keep on, keeping on.

Drop the Bullshit. You ain't got the time for that.

You Have A Life To Live.

Deli is Happy...and why not?? It's Hump Day!!

Allo Hello people of the interwebs! It is Wednesday aka the 3rd day from the sun aka the middle of the barrel aka Hump Day!!!

Whoop! Whoop!

Haven't written on the blog here in a few days...don't worry I found my way back. Thank the holy one for a favorites tab on Google Chrome...anywho...things are looking up for myself in the past couple of days. Did surprisingly well on my mid-term exam (200 questions...really?!?) along with spending some down time relaxing, working out here and there, and hitting the soccer field. So yeah...current mood = excellente.

Hopefully everything on your side of the Earth is going smoothly. After all, Hump Day should bring a smile to all of your cute faces. Ahh...I see that grin on your face! Don't hide it! Let it Shine Shine Shine!

Plans for the rest of the week...keep working hard, be aware of opportunities to better one self, and above all else...just have some fun. Don't overlook all the stuff that you have to get accomplished before week's end and zone out on just taking a few steps back and doing something that's not work related as entertaining. Put down the stapler and keyboard and pickup a controller, a basketball, a golf club, a guitar...something!!! 

Now then if you excuse me...I got to find something to wear before strolling into the inner workings of the city. Also need to fix this bed hair...or lack there of...

And now...Quote Times Tres!

Viva La Hump Day!

(Kazie's Daily Musical: "Headlines" by Drake)

Critical Cinco!

The World Is Our Playground; Not Our Graveyard.

Allo Hello people of the interwebs! Kazie here once again reporting LIVE from Planet Earth here on this Thursday! We're one day away from Friday people! If that doesn't excite you a bit then you might really be dead inside...or just a mad hater with an despicable aftertaste.

Anywho...Thursday! Time for another version of Critical Thursday and for today's post, the thumping matter within my cranium came up with this question/thought to discuss:

What's Next?

Two punctuation marks, two simple words; and yet this simple use of grammar is a very powerful combination. What's Next? Could mean a variety of things to people...what's my next challenge? what's my next objective? what's my blood pressure? what's my lunch today? what my future?

Most of us are consumed over being ahead of the curve; figuring out what's next for us in a futuristic sense. Which isn't a bad move on anyone's part. I give a thumb's up (maybe even 2...) if someone is able to plan their whole life story and stick to that game-plan from the cradle to the grave. In order to get things done in this world, you need to create a blueprint. Not a complete third-dimensional figurine of your life filled with the shortcuts and slip-ups that you will have at age 28 and those golden moments in your later years...nah. However, setting a goal for yourself is the first step towards finding yourself and what you will ultimately become in the future. 

The future is something good to plan for however sometimes we overlook what is already in front of us here and now; a handful of people are busy looking towards their future instead of living right here, right now. When we have a blurred vision, sometimes we miss golden opportunities that could eventually boost our chances to have a great future. For example, you're so focused on going to college and study your life away for 4-5 years yet you didn't spend anytime socializing with local students, going to a party or 5, attending a sporting event, or even talking to that guy or gal that had their eye on you in BIO 151. Experiences will help build you temple mentally, physically, and spiritually...the good, the bad, and the downright shitty...how else are you suppose to grow as a person besides studying organic chemistry at your desk?

Have some fun here in present day!

Speaking of shitty...that's what is always around the corner when we think about what's next; those moments that we try to avoid but just can't. Like one of my great psychology professor's said:

"Stress. Stress was part of your past, stress is part of your present, and stress will be part of your future."

Some of those stressful moments you will be able to recover very quickly; others might take a few days of healing wounds and patching lacerations in order to get back on your feet. As long as you get back up and keep moving forward then you are doing life right. There is nothing wrong with getting knocked down to the ground and getting curbed stomped a few times for added suffering; just get back up and go hard into the paint.

And maybe wear a helmet this time...

Everyone has a bright future ahead of them; all that varies is what you want to do, how do you want to do, and how much effort are you willing to give in order to turn that dream into reality. We all should have the mindset and will to be better every single day as a person; we all are human so we will have a slip-up or two here and there. As long as we get back up and chase after the trophy, the ring, the job, and the future that we want then you can get it and become a champion.

And then host an "I Made It!" party and invite me so we can cheers to your accomplishments.

So What's Next? That is entirely up to you.

Love Yo Face. Enjoy Thursday.

Like A Boss. (On Tap 107)

Rise. Time to get back on the road..

Allo Hello people of the interwebs and welcome to a brand new week starting with the bestest (or worst-est) day...Monday.

Whoop! Whoop! Not included...

Hope that everyone out there enjoyed their weekend in some fashion or another; this guy did. Kicked back and watch a couple of sporting events, hung out with close ones, peeps, and strangers, and even did a cartwheel! Feeling a little energetic on the wake-up call this morning...an extra boost of energy is always a good find! Especially on Mondays since that may require a double dose.

Anywho...Monday is gonna be a good day. Why? Because I said so.

If you are the person that says Monday is gonna suck...then guess what? You're right. However if you leap to your feet and say that Monday isn't gonna be that bad...then guess what? You're right. Now here's the next paragraph to explain that sequence of basically repeating my own Q and A's.

Whatever you think inside that cranium is what the outcome is. Meaning that if you think negative about a new day, new blessing that you have awoken to and that it will be the worse thing to happen to you since the Cowboys winning the first NFL game of the year (OH THE INHUMANITY!!!) then yes...you're day will suck because your brain will be sending negative signals which will lead you to not be you but turn you into an emo, "I Hate The World", bitchy, and lazy version of yourself.

And we don't want that to happen do we?

Instead of looking at this new day, new week, new blessing as a nightmare...look at it as an opportunity. An opportunity to better yourself, create enjoyable memories, handle your business, and get things done like a boss! 

Don't think like a peasant, think like a boss.

I'm not stating that on this Monday everything will go your way. There might be a setback or misfortune lurking behind the kitchen awaiting to appear for a slip-up or 2. But who cares when you are boss and you can handle that shit? It's time to prepare for Monday; I'll handle your calls during your bathroom/wardrobe trip.

Be confident, unfuckwittable, and above all else...A Boss.

Get out there and handle Monday.

Love Yo Face. Enjoy the Week.

Have Faith In You (On Tap 103)

Allo Hello people of the interwebs! Hopefully all of you guys and gals had a great weekend!

Even if you did or didn't, Monday has arisen from the ashes once again to challenge you to a duel. Some of you will not be accepting it and decide to crawl back under the covers and throw the alarm up against the wall...bad. If you're one of those that will accept the challenge that Monday will bring then please walk towards your closest door, unlock, open and step towards the challenge.

This week's theme: Faith.

If you don't have faith in yourself then how the hell are you suppose to do anything in this world? Faith is a powerful five letter word when said and used correctly. Try doing that this week; when things seem to be going south for you...have faith in you that you will be able to turn things around with your ability.

And if things are going rather perfectly in your spectrum of the world, then keep doing what you are doing and believe in yourself and your abilities that you will keep your head above water and keep kicking ass. Figuratively of course...no physical ass kicking this week please...unless you're a MMA fighter.

Anywho, faith doesn't make things easy now...they make them possible. The belief that things may look shitty now but the tide will turn and cause those things to wash away from your life. So prepare yourself for another challenging week and believe in yourself that you will make it through.

Also treat yourself to something nice during it...hard work deserves a treat every now and then.

Love Yo Face. Enjoy Your Week.

103...!

Sand in My Hair? Don't Care. (On Tap 101)

If only I was here just a tad bit longer...haha.

There is just something about Kazie and being on a beach for an amount of time that I'm just one with myself; or maybe that's just the Mango and Coconut Rum talking...yums!

Anyway...hello peeps! Hope that your weekend was fun, relaxing, and you were able to get some form of rest in the middle of it to charge up your batteries for a new week of adventure.

Mine was oh-so-nice!! Spent the majority of it at the beach catching some sun, watching teams at the beach soccer tourney that just so happen to be there when I walked out onto the sand, ran into some familiar faces and met some new ones, and enjoyed just being away from the city for a bit along with the company of my girlfriend. Was definitely a blast in the glass!

When I was not near the sand or the sun, I was on the road coming and going; even drove in through traffic and a tropical storm just for fun. But in the end...totally worth it for a rather entertaining, relaxing yet refreshing weekend.

Find Your Beach; I Already Found Mine.

Alas, I could not stay in the sands forever as Monday has approached which means it's time for another week to come up to the start line and await the trigger to initiate the start.  Gonna be a busy one for myself but I'm ready to take it head on because I'm betting on myself that I will make it to the finish line first.

Probably should hit the showers after the race too...there's sand...everywhere!

Let's gear up guys and gals. We got a Monday to conquer.

Love Yo Faces. Enjoy Your Week.

101...!

Fight Through The Pain.

Hey Hey! Couple of Unknowns to help you keep on, keeping on this week!

"Pain is nothing compared to what it feels like to quit."

"You are successful the moment you start moving towards a worthwhile goal."

"One of the most important keys to success is having the discipline to do what you know you should do, even when you don't feel like doing it."

Keep Moving; You are almost there!

You Will. (On Tap 99)

Those two words on the field. Put them in your vocabulary.

Good morning, good afternoon, or good evening to you all wherever you may be in whatever time zone are you currently inhabiting. Just wanted to wish you a Monday that hopefully reeks of awesomeness!

After an entertaining weekend for this guy, I learned a valuable lesson about sacrifices. Sometimes during your chapters in this crazy book called your life, you come to checkpoints en route which involves making decisions; some easy, others being a tad more difficult. But nothing more serious than when you have make a sacrifice...whether giving a few bucks, being a DD, or staying in to finish something up instead of going out with the girls.

Sacrifices may be tough to make but in the end it can be a more rewarding experience for you.

But none bigger than the ultimate sacrifice of giving your life for your country; which is what Memorial Day is about today here in the States. So for those that have done this sacrifice and for those that are currently serving in the American Armed Forces...I would like to say from the bottom of my heart:

Thank You. 

Now, for this week folks and gals....remember this: I Will. Don't let thoughts of you saying things such as I Won't, I Can't, I'm Not Good Enough, and I Quit invade your cranium. You Can AND You Will make it through. 

Life is not a children's fairy tale with my pretty ponies and rainbows raining gold upon the yellow brick road. It can and will get rough out here on certain stretches of the road but if you maintain your vehicle as it goes through the rough patches then you will make it to the smooth stretches and ride it out for all of what your life is worth.

So go rev up your engines, let's get ready to hit the throttle this week.

Love Yo Face.

Enjoy Your Week.
Happy Memorial Day!

Critical Thursday 2!

Thursday is here! Time to bring out the ol' think bucket!

I was very surprised at how many people and shares that my first Critical Thursday post (Link!) received and just wanted to say thanks to all those that read, commented, and shared. Love All Yo Faces.

But onward we go for Round 2!

This week's question/topic is...

What do you define as "Making It"?

We all come from different backgrounds and upbringings across the globe but we all have a connection to this idea of "making it". And by making it, it could differ in personal details based on who you ask.

Some define "making it" in your riches, others with your occupation, some look at your house, etc, etc, etc. There are a variety of factors that people can make a judgment on someone making it but what does making it mean to the person that you just so happen to be?

In my view, some people define as "making it" without the regard of the material things and define it with waking up the next day. Some people are not as fortunate as others with waking up in a warm bed, eating a nice home cooked meal, or even going to a closet and picking out an attire to wear for the new day. Some have to wake up on sidewalks, park benches, dumpsters; basically a fight for survival each day out here in a world of chaos. However, based on their situation it might suck big time but some are happy that they are able to close their eyes and then re-open them to see another day. That could be some people's version of "making it"; seeing the future right now here in the present in an environment that doesn't look promising that they would even make it one more day.

Others can define "making it" love wise; some look at your partner and based that on if you're a success story or just another victim. A chosen few do find their lifelong partner in the earliest stages of their lives while others go through the ringer trying to find the one. And some don't even bother trying anymore after that first breakup/stab wound to the heart and just go it alone. But yeah...love can play a factor of "making it". Whether you're hetero on homo (Not judging.), love can have a strong effect on a person and their idea of "making it." 

Money, cars, cribs, mansions. People would only dream of this kind of lifestyle and define "making it" in this fashion. You got that wad of cash? You got that new car of dreams? How about a house that's not a double wide? The material side of things can come into play with "making it" since...well you need money to buy expensive things right? For me, I wouldn't judge this sense as the end all-be all of "making it" but some people just do. But if you are able to make it rain, then by all means go ahead. Just give me a warning so I can bring out my umbrella...ella...ella...ey!

"Making It"; It's a interesting concept to dissect and zoom in with microscopes to figure out the working details behind the words.

Putting myself under the microscope...I would define "making it" as having the ability to live comfortably and able to provide for yourself daily without fault. In simpler terms...you're able to survive and live by yourself without the assistance of others.  You have your own income, car, crib, and skill-set to live a good life for you, yourself, and that other pronoun that is not I.  I'm not knocking anyone that does not have this abstract idea of mine...you guys are living your lives how you choose. But this is how I view someone as "making it" on this 3rd rock from the sun.

Do I factor love into it? Yeah to a point...If you find your special someone that makes you happy and you make them happy then yes I can see that as "making it" in one part of the spectrum; I can also see some people that don't want a partner at all and still "make it". Now I can (experienced and have) seen love torture situations with promise and mess up a feel good story and turn it into a sorrow dark spell. With love, it's all up to the eye of the beholder. If you want it, just don't be so assumed by the want of it because you will ruin yourself. If you don't, well just keep doing what your doing.

Your inner circle will also play a factor. Friendships can help motivate and even inspire others to keep fighting and clawing towards their dreams. You can have 1, 5, 287, or 30,000+. Friends can make you feel alright and in your zone socially and spiritually which can fuel your fire and put a permanent smirk on that face of yours. Plus you can throw a nice "Making It" block party in celebration once you reach that plateau...and also get invited to theirs. PAR-TAY!

There are some feel good rags to riches stories out here of people that made it; and I truly believe that EVERYONE has a shot of making it, reaching their dreams, and accomplishing their goals. All of these vary from person to person but all of us can "Make It". Never ever give up on what you believe in and what you want to accomplish...and above all else...BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. We all go through trials and tribulations in our life cycles that curb stomp us down to the ground and knock the wind out of us; that doesn't mean that you stay on the ground permanently. 

Treat your wounds, pick yourself up, build on your strengths and weaknesses, and keep moving forward.

We all have the power to do great things on this Earth.

Hit The Nitro! (On Tap 97)

Take Your Marks.

Allo Hello people of the Interwebs! Hopefully you guys and gals remembered to show your moms out there some appreciation and loving (in hugs and kisses forms acceptable) yesterday on Mother's Day! Remember that just because you give birth doesn't make you qualified as a mother; if you are that special person out there that help mold your offspring successfully into awesome people then cheers to you and all the other awesome mothers out there!

But that was yesterday...now for today!

It's Monday!!! (woo...) Don't everyone cheer at once. We've been through this phase a few times in our lives; the first day is always the one where we just want to crawl back into our bed in ball form under the covers and just wait until Tuesday arises. Unfortunately...that can't happen. Unless you're in a coma and you don't want to be in a coma do you?

Instead it's time to get some clothes on and do your morning rituals to get ready for another weekly race through time, obstacles, and objectives. So make sure you wear something comfy, have a good meal to settle the little rager inside of your belly, and step up to the line.

And don't run a false start. You don't want to be DQ'd before the race even starts right?

Also don't forget to stretch...pulling things are bad for you.

¡Go!

Enjoy Your Day.

Love Yo Face.

Seis De Mayo (On Tap 96)

Are you on or are you off?

Seeing that today is Monday, most of you are powered down. Not because of the amount of Cornoaritas you enjoyed on Cinco de Mayo but due to the fact that it is indeed...Monday. Le Sigh.

But it's all good. You know why? Because you hold the power to make Monday great.

You can either be turned off and go about your day in standby mode watching your life come and go minute by boring minute. Or you can click the power button and feel the electricity run through your veins as you run rapid like a spider-monkey jacked up on Mountain Dew!

Talladega Nights reference. +1!

So get out there and live your Monday up! Get things done today and enjoy yourself out here on this 3rd rock from the sun! And don't forget to press the power button on the way out!

Enjoy Your Monday. Love-A Ya Face!

Show The World (On Tap 95)

The world is your stage.

As you arise from your sleeping quarters and plan for the new week ahead, what type of performance will you entertain your audience with this week?

Will it be a weekly performance worthy of puke, a friendly nod, casual applause, or a standing ovation?

Take a deep breath, unlock your door, and step out into the spotlight.

Put on one hell of show this week that no one will soon be able to forget.

Enjoy Your Monday, Devour Your Week.

Negativity Loves Thee (On Tap 94)

There is just something about negativity...

No matter how hard you try to ignore it's horrible odor and awful wardrobe on the daily basis, you somehow run into it. Whether it's with your own personal battles with the prince of darkness, your close ones battling with it head on with you as an audience, or even at random in this world of ours...

Negativity will always show up to try and steal the show.

However, negativity may be an actor in this little film of yours but as the director you have the power to cut it or let it ruin your entire movie and turn it from a wicked awesome thriller to a rotten D-list movie like Battleship or A Thousand Words. 

I've said it before and I'll say it again...when you let negativity build up to the point where it consumes you and your actions, you've already lost this fight. Now you can redeem yourself by taking those hands of yours and going inside of you to grab that sucker out of you. Also, curb stomp into the ground a few times while your at it. Here's another hint: do it behind closed doors because it could get messy.

Over the past few weeks, I've been surrounded by people that has let negativity turn them into walking corpses attached with panic switches. It's time for people to get stronger; we can overcome all things in this world. For example, look at the strength of the human spirit in the time of tragedy during the Boston Marathon dark days; now we have a suspect six feet deep and the other captured in the matter of a few days while also coming together to help Boston in their time of need.

The human spirit is strong; sometimes it can make us feel immortal. In order for it to continue to work properly, negativity should not infect it nor attempt to manipulate it from within.

Keep the negativity out; and if it does get pass your defenses, make sure to make it regret from entering your temple.

Love Yo Face. 

94...!

Don't let negativity affect your vision. A lot of people have said harsh things, but I don't let it affect me. If anything it gives me more enthusiasm and pushes me to do better in my career so I can prove them wrong.

Stress is in your past.

I'm a BIG music lover. Lover all kinds of music; well except gospel...that can sit on the shelf. Anyway, I was talking to a co-worker of mine and we were chit chatting about our music favs and then he brought up how music is good for the health. Learning about how music can actually be a health necessity was interesting. Here's some neat facts about music and it's bassful effects on your body.

-Music can enhance reading and literacy skills

-Causes physical relaxation and stress reduction

-Music causes the body to release endorphins to counteract pain.

-Helps migraine and chronic headaches by reducing the intensity, duration, and frequency of the pain.

-Great for memory exercise for brain activities.

Want more cool facts? Here's a Link To More...Music, It's Good For You. 

Basically, instead of grabbing that bottle of aspirin, grab a pair of headphones and turn up the music. 

Jump Into Friendships.

Friendships: Something simple yet very complicated. I'm fortunate to have a couple of these with some awesome people and they somehow put up with me so it's a win-win. You might be having a bad day and all you need is one of your friends to do something stupid to forget about it. That's what friends are for right? A true friend is there for you to give you a laugh, a hug if you need one after a bad situation, someone that you can act stupid with and be normal, and just make you feel ahh-mazing. Also...friends are good for your health! Well unless they piss you off...then they can become a biohazard. Hopefully the biohazards happen less often...but yeah friendships. 

Go get you some.

Happy Viva La Hump Day Peeps! Enjoy Your Wednesday and the rest of your week!
