Letter To The Fam

Our Family (arrow pointing up since I dont how to type it lol)




Dear Family,

I heard em say that nothin is ever promised tomorrow or today, and Nuthin last forever. So on that note I just took the time out to say first off if I offend anyone please forgive me in advance but Im just gonna be honest. On Friday on came up to visit, and Josiah came all the way down from Sac Town and he was expecting it to be like last semester when we all were super close. I knew it was not gonna be like that and I know he was expectin everyone to be all close, and I dont blame him he is like the only other family we have. Just like the rest of us we all have some connection to each other and we will always have love for each other and we are supposed to fight and feel each others pain. Now I know we all grow to and we all eventually grow and part ways, so everyone is split up and dont get me wrong that is great I was not expecting everyone to be super close anymore I wanted to see you all grow and mature. At the same time I want everyone to still keep an eye out for each other, like I dont want you all to forget you can all move on in your lives I am not mad at that at all but at the same time there are many of us in the group who are going through tough times and we look for other outlets, just remember that there are always other people you all connected with that you can still talk to and share your thots and feelings with. Im glad you all are doing your things and making new friends thats what life is about growing and moving on, but never forgetting. Oh Christine if your heart is not into designing that is completely fine I dont wanna force you to do art work and take time out of your life to help tme I wudd rather you love art on your own free time than to hate it helping me, so dont worry about me anymore have fun and live life I can always do the line on my own but thank you for everything. Lost Boys I know you all made new friends and Im proud you all are learning to step out of the comfort zone and Im proud, keep making new friends.Kailey I know your story and ill continue to keep you in prayer for your situation if you ever read this, and forgive me for my immature action last night lol.David My man continue to improve on your musical abilities and excel, im expectin to have a cd by the time you graduate. Tmcgill and Q stay up on that study and keep worshipping the Lord it ll take you far, and remember to but the book down once and a while to help those around you. Josiah and Jairus and Brian, Just keep being the funny guys you all are and look out for everyone, and continue to tease me about all me weird wadrobe changes. Jordan, Matt, Shed, Ced, and Paul I hope you guys are doin well, continue to be who you are, and just be wise about decisions you make everyday in life, other wise you all are good to go in life, im expecting to see one of yall in the league for any sport lol. Jordan keep singing your heart out and let the world Know who you are through your beautiful music. Anjelica dont think I forgot about you, I am constantly going to pray for you as much as I can everyday, but dont let the world break you because once the world breaks you its hard to recover, and I know that sounds easy to say considering your situation, just remebr there are other family members that are not blood related that care about you, you will never be alone in the harsh world. If Marshall and D ever read this I hope all is well brothas and I hope to see you 2 go far in life. I very glad to have met you all, and whenever I return I hope that you all learn to respect each other, you all dont have to kick it on a daily basis or even monthly just when you all see each other just know that we are all in this together, and most people get lost in this world cuz they have no one. Im not trying to be funny or nuthin for this this is just from the heart of my solid cold heart as you all know lol, I just dont ever wanna return and see everyone mad at each other and at each other throats you solve your problems with each other and move on and continue to move on, thats what a family does, you dont have to hang out 24/7 but a once in the blue moon call wouldnt hurt, just respect each other and keep an eye out on each other. As for myself, I will be going away for a while for real, I got thing I have to take care of and missions and goals I have to take care of, and its not that Im gonna just lose contact but I dont want anyone to think I am avoiding them or anything, just know once I make it we all make it. God didnt remove me for an irrelevant reason, so I got things to accomplish and goals to achieve, but just know I will never forget you all when I make it. Everything happens for a reason,but god places different people in our lives for certain seasons, and hes preparin me for a certain season. Until then Im gonna go put in the work and I will be back, but I will always love yall.I will see you all when i get there, promise.

P.S. I did this on my blog becuase there are too many text messages to write and send and too hard to call, so this way was easier, because if I could I wudd telll you all face to face but, seeing that is impossible with our crazy lives this was easier. There may be spelling errors but then again who is counting lol.( you all prolly will count just to let me know I messed up)lol.

E-Wolf Like VROOM! VROOM! VROOM!

e-Wolf channels inner Italian with planned e2 electric car — Autoblog: "Shortly after debuting its Lotus Seven-esque e1 electric sportscar at the Frankfurt Motor Show, e-Wolf has just released images and details of its next model, the e2. Unlike the open-topped e1, the German firm's e2 followup will feature a shape clearly inspired by any number of supercars from Italy, particularly the Lamborghini Reventón and Ferrari Enzo. If you're going to borrow heavily, might as well go for the gold, no?

Powering the theoretical electric supercar will be one 134-horsepower electric motor per wheel for a total of 536 squeaky-clean horses and an impressive 738 lb-ft of torque (1,000 Nm). The run to 60 mph is expected to be dispatched in well under four seconds, though the top speed may be capped at 155 mph.

Energy storage will be by way of a lithium ion battery pack composed of 84 flat cells from CERIO. Although no details have been released on the pack's stated capacity, e-Wolf suggests that range could be as high as 187 miles (300 kilometers) per charge after a recharge of just 30 minutes – of course it would take a powerful specialized charger to achieve that result. Production is currently planned for 2011. Click past the break for the official press release."

Your Far To Kind

Paul Smith Spring 2010 Men's: Menswear Fashion Collections on men.style.com: "Before his show, Paul Smith was promising something new. His invitation featured clouds viewed from the window of a plane, the kind of vista that would be all too familiar to Kings of Leon, Franz Ferdinand, and the other youngish touring bands the designer name-checked.

The promise of newness was honored in the palette. The show was still suit-based, but it evolved from a sober gray-flannel start to a celebration of sheen, and then color, in monochrome outfits that ranged from pale pastels to purple, teal, and a fiery, orangey red. Further lightening the sartorial load was the fact that suits were paired with espadrilles. And instead of his signature florals, Smith presented a muted botanical print featuring pineapples. In a cotton shirt jacket, it looked like a perfect piece of wardrobe-defining vintage, which should make some band member happy.

The finale featured Sir Paul and his models dancing down the catwalk to 'Thriller.' Michael Jackson has been a spectral presence on the Paris catwalks, as in the muted cover version of 'Billie Jean' that was playing as the audience filed out of Hermès last night. It was perhaps only right that the last show of the season should close with an unabashed reminder of the singer's greatest success.
