My Dad

My dad is one of the most peculiar men I know. He is pretty ocd and... actually yeah. he's pretty ocd.

When he setup my car, he made sure that there were enough stolen dunkin donuts napkins, notepads, gum packs, gum, and quarters. Of course, they were all neatly stored.

At home, he always cleans things and puts things away immediately after use or if he sees them not in the right place. My mom gets angry at him for always moving stuff she was using so he is not allowed in the kitchen until food is actually made.

The other day, I had to transport a trashcan of goodies to a friends and also that same day, I had to switch cars with my dad so he helped me move my stuff to his car. This is what he did with the trashcan.




if you can't really see, he YES:
1) taped down the handle so it wouldn't make noise while I drived
2) taped down the cover to make sure it didn't come off
3) seatbelt in the trashcan to make sure it didn't roll
4) put a towel under the trashcan so it wouldn't scratch the seat

ok... i guess those are legit excuses when you spell them out but at the moment, I was thinking "typical dad." This is one of the milder ocd habits he has.

Good it doesn't run in the family, huh?

goals

Goals for the summer:

1) not to become lazy

2) apply to at least 5-8 jobs a week (cover letters can suck it)

3) attempt p-90 x or at least work out 4-5 times a week (barf)

4) try to see all the peops and homies

5) read not watch (newspaper perhaps?)

6) learn to cook without recipes

short term goals... something i can focus on to distract me from real life

summer

It feels like summer vacation.

Eating whatever, tennis outdoors, working out, playing with friends, watching endless movies and tv shows, watching Celtics dominate. Almost feel as though I'm going back to school in the fall.

Damn, I need to find a job. Summer... so good to me

handwriting

<-2001 2008^


After all my years.. this is how far I've come in my handwriting. 5 year old boy handwriting? Or 21 year old college graduate?

You decide what is appropriate.
