Chadymac Hashtag Mantra

Words that I have lived by that could apply to just about everything.

#NoExcuses -  You have to make the decision yourself. Just shut up, focus and do what you think is best. Allow yourself to be criticized as well but don't take everything in. Pick what's useful and leave out the rest.
#StayMotivated - You must commit to what you have started. Yes, it will be hard but yes, it will all be worth it in the long run. Everything will work out.
#KeepPushing - You should always strive to be better. On all aspects of your life. Don't me one dimensional. Have a sport. Take a hobby. Be pro active. There is so much to be done in life. Not only for yourself but for the people around you.
#LiveHappy - Life's too short to have negativity or to be malicious. Be honest, hang out with your squad and smile!

Bittersweet U

Someone I've been teaching for a while now sent this to me recently. I am posting this here because it serves kind of like a footnote on how far they have reached in their story telling capabilities. Of course, I am proud as well that someone I've been teaching can write such a powerful piece. Cheers.

I thought u would understand. I thought u'd be different..... U build me up to believe.......to be better....U shattered me... So hard.......

I poured my heart into u...yet you drained it away anyway...in my f*ing face. I thought I knew U. It's like I was talking to a different person the whole time. Well, f*** me for trying, right?

Wishing u dead is too easy so instead, I hope u live ur life all alone...because u don't know how to love. All ur friends will move on with their Significant Other's  and You'll be attending wedding after wedding, standing there like a fool. U'll be the best uncle any parent can ask for and yet, U will never hear the word 'Dad' uttered to you. U'll be just you. Such an amazing yet flawed human. At least, you can get to keep your mantle....... 'Hopeless Romantic'. I'm sorry I ever bothered you...I hope that mango float you're getting now is amazing...I hope you'll have a great time tomorrow... lastly, I hope you can fix urself because if anyone does end up with you, she is the luckiest woman ever...Sucks balls it's just not me. Bye U.

Happy-er

"Looking good chard..and happy dappy"

"What crawled up your butt and you seem super happy as of late? Are you high?"

And my favorite:
"Stop being so upbeat...You're effortlessly destroying the mood. I just got rejected, dammit. No drinks for you..."

These are the things I've heard from my friends from the last few days. I'm not entirely sure why they say this..hmmm..
There are two logical scenarios I can think of that they could have said this:
1.) I have not been active enough to roam and hang out with a majority of my friends (besides inner circle) as of late
and they have not seen me in a while...
OR
2.)There's a brooding, emo doppleganger version of me that's going around town, spreading sadness and despair.

Kidding aside, maybe I am an extra dose of happy as of late. Funny thing is, I can't seem to find a reason why I am happy-er. What I mean is when I think about it, I haven't really changed anything with my mindset or my daily activities. In fact,they've been incredibly mundane and routinary. I'm pretty much still overwhelmingly optimistic, loud, positive and unabashedly honest. I guess as of these times, life seems to be dragging a few people down and that's just sad.I should be really hanging out more to share my good vibes. Just need an invite because I'm iffy that way lolz.

Peace out.
