Gunslinger - Part II [11 Dec 2007|02:10am]
[ music | Massive Attack - Angel ]

The gunslinger looked up to the hills and noticed that the sun was starting to make its slow decent again. He didn't know what day or hour it was, just that he needed to keep riding. Black Thunder was getting a bit fatigue from the days riding and gunslinger decided that he would stop at the next town which was a few miles west. On the way there he tried to recollect the past days events, he sometimes asks himself how he often gets into these situations.

Such as the one earlier today...

Gunslinger made his rapid decent down the ladder of the clock tower. He took one glance up and read 5:30. The sun was still down and the town still peacefully asleep, all was quiet but the rapid flapping of wings from the bats. Black Thunder with his trusty side arm were waiting for him at the bottom of the building. As the gunslinger was about to hop on the steed he heard a faint muffled cry behind the old grocery store.

The muffled cry for help got louder and the gunslinger sprinted near it's location. He peaked around the corner and saw a young lightly colored haired women on the ground and a large figure towering above her. This man was as tall as a giant the gunslinger thought. The large man attempted to tear off the poor girls dress. No matter how hurt his heart was he couldn't let any women suffer such as this. The gunslinger knew he had no chance of taking this man head on with out his weapon. He ran around to the front of the building, there a barrel sat and he hastily moved it out a little. He jumped on to the barrel and quickly raised himself up to the roof. Walking as fast and as quietly as he could he made his way towards the edge of the rooftop. The womens cry for help grew louder and he knew if he was going to make his move and not get the women hurt that he should do it now. Gunslinger leaped on to the giant man's shoulders and began to whale strong blows to his head. With every last breath he held on to the giant man tightly like riding an angry bull. Gunslinger didn't take any breaks nor was worried about anything, he continued to deliver heavy blows to the back of the giant man's head. He felt the cracking of the skull but the gunslinger didn't stop. He knew tonight either one or two would die. The Giant man broke an arm lose and grabbed the gunslinger, tossing him to the ground. The Giant man dazed and confused pulled his gun out and as he was about to shoot the gunslinger, he took one step back and fell to the ground.

Gunslinger [10 Dec 2007|03:56am]
[ music | Lonley Sole - UNKLE ]

A cowboy sits alone next to a dying tree, pondering what his next move should be. Exhausted of loneliness, the gunslinger rides from town to town for a new hope and some sense of fulfillment . The gunslinger wrestling with his emotions tries to tackle his problem by going to the local saloon to calm his nerves with a cheap whiskey drink and some atmosphere.

The poor gunslinger is strong, bold, and courageous. However he lacks focus, patience, and is cursed with a weak heart. The saloon is much quieter then most days he thought or could it be that today he's in a deeper thought then usual. Looking up towards the 2nd floor he sees a young brunette lady making her way down to the 1st floor. This dame's beauty could stop the most poorest cowboy's cattle drive. Her name was Maple, born the daughter of a carriage builder from a small town south of of here. At least that is what she had told him last time he thought.

Maple's innocent eyes connected with the gunslingers as she took her final step to the 1st floor. She smiled with excitement and was overzealous of his presence. Maple had a seat with the gunslinger and they discussed upcoming events and again the gunslingers heart was filled with happiness and warmth. A feeling that he so quietly yet desperately yearns for. Being a busy women, Maple had to leave the gunslinger but she insisted that they meet on top of the clock tower at midnight to spend more time. The gunslinger agreed and Maples continued back upstairs.

Gunslinger smiled with enjoyment and this time he sat straight up with confidence. He walked outside of the saloon and petted his horse. Talking to him as if he were the only person who truly understood him. The horse's name was Black thunder and as the gunslinger would talk, Black thunder would stare at him and listen to what he had to say.

It was nearly midnight and the gunslinger made his way towards the clock tower. He jumped up the ladder and climbed it with such enjoyment knowing that soon he would be able enjoy the sweet company of Maples. The Clock rang midnight and he knew that she most likely wouldn't be on time. Waiting with such patience he stared at the full moon above and glanced over the vacant town, thinking about her beauty and smell. The clock rang one, then two, then three, and finally four. For each bell that tolled a piece of the gunslingers heart fell into oblivion. Lonely, down, and empty the gunslinger comes to the realization that Maples isn't coming.

And there the cowboy sits alone on the clock tower, pondering what his next move should be.

I wouldn't even know [26 Jul 2006|05:31pm]
[ mood | confused ]

Rooftop breeze blowing through my spiky hair; The sunset reflecting off the tinted tower glass windows. I stood on the corner of the roof park. It felt so good to be there... call me crazy but this is a dream to me. Being here makes me feel secure with my abilities.

But,

As my eyes scanned across the Wells Fargo Tower, I started to focus on the water ahead. I suddenly felt something was missing. I got this sinking feeling inside of frustration.

Something deep down was startled; not knowing what it is makes it so worse.

I'm a strong believer in following your heart, even if sacrifices are involved. I believe you have the choice to do anything you wish; choice to change your destiny, choices to be happy, choice to live or die.

That is power, the choice to do whatever you must to be the best you can be.

I closed my eyes - "why am I feeling this way?" and I realized that... I don't know. It's just a feeling lurking inside of me at the moment that I can’t get rid of.

A feeling of: sorrow and happiness. Could it be Failure?

Soon there was so much in mind that everything just stopped: clouds, cars, people.

Then....
.
.
.
BAM!!

This little punk kid who was part of the day care upstairs ran is tricycle into my leg. It hurt wicked bad. He gives me this look like I wasn't even there and peddled off. "Stuck up Rich kids. Can't even apologize." I turned around and i realized that i have no idea where i left off. I took a deep breath and walked towards the door.

Whatever it was, the feeling that I had... It is one that even I wouldn't know.

Who is this guy they called NetwrkJnky? [26 Apr 2006|03:42am]
[ mood | cold ]

I signed on to aim today and got an IM from a buddy that i went to school with awile back:

Buddy: Yo long time NetwrkJnky!
Me: Indeed man, how's it been?
Buddy: Not bad, still the netwrk guru?
Me: =\

Time sorta stopped at this point for me. I realized that i almost forgot what I use to enjoy doing. Staying up late and learning about Network Intrusion, trying to understanding basic scripting, messing around with honeypots, and playing on mod-x (technology based detective game). I started to remeniss on those days. I went to my storage closet and pulled out a dusty old box, the letters "C I S C O" written on it. "My old Cisco Academy stuff" I mumbled to myself. I started to fumble through the loads of documentation and paper work i've accured over the years. Then, at the very bottom of the box i noticed something. It was my Catagory 5 braclet i made back in the day; some of you may know what i am talking about. It was a clever idea, it was not just only a braclet, but also a cross over cable at the same time.

I am afraid of technology now, it moves too fast and i move too slow. The knowledge that i posses now will stay with me for the rest of my life, however it will not grow anymore.

Who is this guy they called netwrkjnky? Even I can't answer that question. I don't know who that guy is either. I don't know what i am good at, or what i have a specialty in anymore.

So i'll leave with this, your never too young to follow your happiness even if you have to shave off a couple of grand from your salary. In the long run you'll be happy. You'll live a better life and feel acomplished.

Tuesday 27th. [27 Sep 2005|12:33pm]
[ mood | stressed ]
[ music | WHAM! Wake me up b4 you go go. ]

T_T Blah. I couldn’t helpmyself to get Pork Teriyaki _|-|O… I am trying to cut back on eating out. Im trying to save for a car down payment now. I decided to go with a Toyota Pirus (black) hybrid. Only reason I guess is because the amount of gas consumption most cars have and how the gas prices keep rising up. I remember that gas prices were 1.50 and people were like HOLY SHIT that’s expensive and then next thing you know its at 3 bux!

I was reading a Article today (I don’t have it on hand right now) but it was about Georgia Schools closing because they don’t have enough money in their budget to pay for gas for the school bus… lol! Sad… “hey guys no school because the school is too broke to buy gas!”

I think its good though maybe it will cause a chain reaction and they have to lower the prices again. Anyway im at Sunny Teriyaki right now about to eat my pork. Last evening I went out when I got off work to target to get some supplies for the house. Even bought a Razor Blade and Shaving cream. I usually use a Electric shaver but the performance now a days on my face is terrible. It never cuts close and it’s a brand new blade. However shaving w/ a razor is a new story. I never in the whole 5 years of shaving ever had a closer shave.

Anyway I picked up some items for my friends house warming gift and a birthday card for my friend’s mom. Afterwards I ate some canned food and hit bed. Anyway long day ahead of me for now my food is getting cold. =)

A sleepless night... [16 Sep 2005|01:18am]
[ mood | restless ]
[ music | Stabbing Westward - Save yourself !!! i found it!! =O ]

It's about 1 am this wonderful Friday Morning.... I am a bit tried... however none the less again in deep thought. There is one thing about finding motivation and that is keeping it. Keeping the motivation close to your heart so you dont lose it.

A lot things are going on with my job. it would take hours to explain however to be honest w/ myself I should stop whining and complaining... suck it up and move forward... regardless of getting another job or not this is life and in real life these types of things happen.

this evening I lit a couple of candles on my TV and just sat on my combfy counch after studing and just fell back into deep thought. I realized what i craved... and i crave knowledge.. the only problem is i have really no "motivation" to study it. It was nice seeing all the books i had...Well to be honest it was very overwhelming. The thing about me is ill buy books left and right but because i didnt read much as a kid i get bored and distracted easily and tend to focus on other things. Which then i came to realize that i also lack focus in my life.

I would compare myself like a shotgun bullet. When a shotgun bullet gets shot - tiny pellets spread all over the place.. It's never a "direct" hit with a shotgun. It just kinda spreads. Thats kinda how my focus and motivation are... All over the place.

As long as i have a direct target (Goal) and control my focus and motivation to that target i should be able to accomplish any task that is given to me. (i would like to hope =\ )

P.S. If you havent seen FFVII Advent Children then i feel really bad for you... Further more if you didnt get to see the Anime Pre-quil of When Zack Helps Cloud Escape (made by square enix) i feel ever worse for you... =( These are both great items and i would like to thank james tak for sharing with me. So yea... go see it...........3-2-1 now!

Old Friends and New Friends Interesting day.. [14 Sep 2005|09:07am]
[ mood | mellow ]

I saw a lot of old and new friends yesterday. It was crazy almost every place i went i saw someone from the past or present. It was kinda cool... makes me sorta miss ol' lynnhood.

I studied a bit last night and thought a bit about what my future is going to be like... I have a couple of paths that i might follow. For now im going to try to avoid distractions because distractions slow me down =(.

I dont get Wednesdays sometimes... its hard to get up @_@. Im sure other people have the same issue as well.

I been studing poetry as of late.. its interesting and very relaxing.... but you know i found a poem that i liked alot.. and i guess its my favorite =). So Ill leave you with that:

Alexander Pushkin:

A magic moment I remember:
I raised my eyes and you were there,
A fleeting vision, the quintessence
Of all that's beautiful and rare

I pray to mute despair and anguish,
To vain the pursuits world esteems,
Long did I near your soothing accents,
Long did I your features haunt my dreams.

Time passed. A rebel storm-blast scattered
The reveries that once were mine
And I forgot your soothing accents,
Your features gracefully divine.

In dark days of enforced retirement
I gazed upon grey skies above
With no ideals to inspire me
No one to cry for, live for, love.

Then came a moment of reinessance,
I looked up - you again are there
A fleeting vision, the quintessence
Of all that's beautiful and rare
