New Beginnings

Hey world,

          So this isn't a poem, or a story about my exes, this is an old fashioned post about me and my life. It's been a while since I've done this but oh well. Things have been great lately. A lot of hard work and patience has finally paid off. I started working as an RT last week and its awesome! Not only does this particular job triple my income, but it also gives me the precise experience in patient care that I need. That in itself is perfect. Its also 2 1/2 hours away from San Diego, so it gives me a fresh plane to focus on work and getting everything together.

         If you read the poem I wrote in a blog a few weeks ago, This is the change I was talking about. Funny thing is it all came in perfect timing. You have to get rid of some things in life before you can start to see change. You can't have things holding you back and expect to go anywhere. That being said, I  had to make this partial move to Indio, CA to find better work opportunities. San Diego is over saturated with new RT grads. There are not many opportunities at the moment, so since the relationship is over and the parents have their own scheme cooking up, I decided to do what I needed to do. There was nothing in SD holding me back anymore. I have my family and friends who I love, but they aren't gonna pay my bills. So on to a better me. Plus I love what I do, and I'm pretty good at it so far.

          So here it is, a new beginning, dark shadows are long gone and lingering somewhere else. No rain on my parade, and the forecast calls for clear skies. No more calls or texts asking if I'm ok  I am and have been fine, and am clearly enjoying life.  I'm exited to see what this new chapter brings to my life. It has already brought a career, the rest is just collateral!

Till next time,
Vic

SWAG!!!

Hello World, 
SWAG! God I hate that word. Do you know why I hate it? I hate it because everybody uses it. I hate it because I forget what I used to say before I started using it. He's got swag, she's got swag, we've got swag, What is SWAG? I forget what it is. I forget what word it deleted from the dictionary in order for us to start using it. Thus my issue with the word swag and other words like it. They have become pop culture catch phrases that eliminate the need for vocabulary. Now a days people who speak well are considered dull or nerdy, because they are educated. Well, READ A BOOK and you just might be just as knowledgeable.


The English language is the dirtiest classless language in the modern world. Why is that? Not, because its spoken by many, but because its lost its originality. We use words like toilet paper one minute its a good word, gets the job done, then we find another fluffier easier word and forget there even was an origin in the first place. OK, probably not the best example but seriously, how many times do you use words that are termed "slang" because you cant find a better word to say? I challenge you to find a better word the next time you want to saw swag, or bling, or tight. I submit to you There is always a better word!!!

Till next time my swagged out partners in crime
