My past was full of magic. Rather it lacked magic; therefore became magical. It's similar to the thought that mortality is more beautiful than immortality, because things that die quickly are more precious. I was a bi-racial child growing up in the hard streets of Oxnard. *cheeky grin* My best friend at any given time was my trusted parakeet. I had several. My favorite was a yellow and green budgie. Her name was Sunshine. She was a cantankerous old thing, but I absolutely adored her. One of my favorite past times at my elementary school was playing Jurassic Park with my buddy, Micheal. He was a velociraptor and I was a German shepherd. I know. I was a dog...I shoulda been a dinosaur, but I grew up on my dad's epic dog fight tales, so I mimicked his favorite dog, Chico. Who was a friggin' German shepherd. So, you know, I rocked. I still rock.
Speaking of rocking, I started my first blog in October of 2010. It's become a passion of mine. I am currently studying at Oxnard College in hopes of gaining my AA in Sociology. Speaking of college, I'm looking forward to the new semester. I did enjoy my winter break. I took a trip with my best friend, Aletheia, to Santa Barbara. In fact, that's where my blog picture was taken. I am standing near the statue of Saint Barbara at the Santa Barbara Mission. Recently, I read five pieces of classic literature including The Oedipus Cycle and Siddhartha. I am an avid reader. I do enjoy going out on the occasion. My favorite dance spot is a local place in Ventura. It's called Charline's. I am working on two novels at present. Both of which are in the pre-write stage. And, I write poetry in my spare time.
My future is a mystery, but I have a lot of plans for it. I do hope to transfer and switch my major to Literature or English. I would love to become an author in the future, or now. I plan on fixing up a few more of my poems in hope of getting them published. I also hope to have children one day. I love kids. And that, my fair ladies and gents, is me in a nutshell. Well, part of me.
P.s. My first blog is here on blogger. If you'd like a glance at another part of my life please feel free to take a look. http://irvingsrambles.blogspot.com/
