"1000 Julys"--Third Eye Blind |
] |
It'd be a lie to say that I lead a boring life. To say the least.
The cruise to the Caribbean was a helluva good time. Grand Cayman, Roatan, Belize, and Cozumel were all amazing. Cozumel especially--the people were so nice there and that's where I swam with and fed stingrays! That was pretty freakin sweet. I definitely recommend that to anyone with any interests in it.
Of course there is a lot more to say about it, but I would be here for the next week trying to go into detail about all the good times. Pictures are being put up on Facebook for those of you that have the privilege of being friends with me.
And now onto the more important and unfortunate topic of this post: after a little over two years, Kristy and I broke up. I don't really want to go into the reasons why right now, but I'll just say that it was the right decision. I'm not happy about it at all, but it was something that needed to happen. Now we're in that really rough stage where we're trying to make things alright not so awkward between us. I do really want to remain friends with her, at the very least. So I hope that can happen. She was/is still a big part of my life, I can't and won't just sever all ties with her.
Works sucks. Go figure. On the plus side, I'm taking the necessary steps to becoming a Police Officer here in Fairfax County. So I hope that happens and soon.
So, without going into too much detail, that's been the jist of my life as of late. Hm, my life may not be very boring, but I sure do know how to put a pretty damn boring spin on it. I blame it on work.
And Nazis

"Hearts on Fire"--John Cafferty |
] |
Sounds like an easy enough question, right? But to tell you the truth, I have absolutely no idea what I want to do with my life.
Before I continue with this, I just want to say that I DO know some things that I would love to do with my life. However, these things either require prerequisites that I don't have any desire whatsoever to pursue, they won't give me what I need for a worry-free life (usually low salary), or are just a bit too unrealistic/farfetched to become reality for me.
Here's what I want to do: -Play professional baseball -Play videogames for a living -Police Officer/Detective -FBI Special Agent -Astronaut -Fighter Pilot -Be in a rock band for a living -Boxer
Here's what life is making a bitch to pursue (for the most part): -Play professional baseball -Play videogames for a living -Police Officer/Detective -FBI Special Agent -Astronaut -Fighter Pilot -Be in a rock band for a living -Boxer
So, in short, I don't know what to do with my life. I just graduated college and to be honest, I really don't want to go back to school unless the most amazing job offer comes my way. School is longer for me, I think. But don't get me wrong, I greatly admire and respect those that can continue on with school to do what they want in life. But that's just it, that's what I'm lacking. I'm lacking the necessary drive to take me where I need to go. And to be honest, that depresses me. It really does.
I have friends who knew that they wanted to be doctors/lawyers/accountants/architects/biomedical engineers/etc. pretty much their whole lives, and they took/are taking the necessary steps in order to achieve these goals. And me? I have nothing.
I want to be famous. I want to mean something in life. I want to do something important. I want to save people. I want to do something I enjoy. I want to entertain people. I want to be the best at something.
...I sound like I want to be "Made". This sucks.

"Dead Now"--Thoroughfare |

Yo. It's been awhile. I've been pretty busy for the past few months, what with school, trying to pass said school, attempts at a decent social life, relationshit (this is neither the time nor the place for that epic tale), graduating from previously-mentioned school (go me!), hanging with Kristy & friends, and now working once again at Fort Belvoir. And now here I am, sitting at my desk in my cubicle at work, eating lunch. Mmm...hotdogs.
I hate work so much. Especially because all I do is sit at a desk for 8.5 hours a day, being an office-monkey. That's actually what I've started telling people when they ask me what I do. "Office-Monkey", I reply.
I miss baseball. A lot. Never realized how much I missed it until I was no longer able to play in the same league. I realize there are other leagues out there, but I neither know where they are nor do I want to play in a league full of old people. Which, coincidentally enough, is probably going to happen anyway, since my dad really wants me to play with him on his softball team. Gah, softball. Why can't it just be baseball? I really never understood the reasoning.
Hm...I've been getting really lazy (ya know, even more so than usual) since I've been home from school and started working. It's really starting to get to me, I need to fix this. Must start working out again.
In positive news, American Gladiators is on tonight! It has easily become my favorite show right now. One day I will be competing on it (hopefully soon), you just wait and see. Mmm...Crush. Just kidding, Kristy. =P
Guess that's all for now. Toodles.

Damn this job is boring. I hate working for the government.
Not too much of an entry today, don't really have too much that's new going on at the moment.
Okay, now it's time for "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!"
Today's guest? Katrina.
Katrina, Katrina, Katrina. Where does one start? Katrina is probably my most favorite blonde girl ever. She goes to UVA with me and is gonna be a Fourth Year once summer is over. Also an Anthropology major as well. I kinda met her randomly through the dorm that I was squatting in (Brown), and it's been great ever since.
Lemme see...as stated before, she has very nice mid-back length blonde hair. For some reason, I'm drawing a blank on her eye color (help me out, Katrina and I'll edit the entry accordingly) She's also got extremely beautiful green eyes. She's barely 5'5" maybe and sports a very athetlic build as well, since she's into keeping in shape with kickboxing (she'll kick your ass basically). And quite the amazing smile and laugh, can't forget those. They're what make Katrina so awesome.
However, my apologies, boys. She's very much taken by one of my best friends, Jon. They're incredibly happy together and I couldn't be happier for them. So, looks like you'll have to lust after someone else now, haha.
That'll do it for today's segment of "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!" Tune in next time to find out who's next!

"Give It Up"--Pepper |

I wish I had superpowers. I really do. Almost any power would be welcomed, too. Readers of my LJ, if you could only have one super power, what would it be and why? And I'm limiting the answer of "flight" to only three people. I get tired of seeing that one all the time, heh. Mine would be super speed. To me, this is the greatest super power. But really, just about anything that would make my normal human life a bit more interesting (from the boring human existance point-of-view, I mean) would be pretty freakin sweet.
Don't take that the wrong way, however, I'm loving life at the moment. Things with Kristy are going awesome-ly(?), more so than I would've imagined (not in bad way, of course). She is just amazing.
I feel that I need to apologize to some friends. I've been spending a lot of time with Kristy lately, and I realize that that's been cutting into hanging out time with you aformentioned friends (even though I didn't actually mention names, but I digress). I'm really going to try and rectify this ASAP.
Okay, now it's time for "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!"
Today's guest? Erin.
Oh man, what can I say about Erin? She's pretty damn cool. She's got to be, since I dated her before and all (back in highschool, senior year). And I only date the coolest of the cool. Word.
Erin is one of my favorite ex-girlfriends because we can still hang out together and have fun without it being awkward. She's really funny and every now and then can do some hilarious impressions. Ask her to do her French impression next time you see her. It's priceless.
Let's see, Erin is a little shorter than myself, probably around 5'5" maybe(?), about shoulder-length blonde hair, and very bright blue eyes. She really rocks that Aryan look well, heh. And not that this is the most important piece of information, but she's got pretty big boobs (D) for her slender frame in addition to her recently-acquired nice ass, haha.
And to my knowledge, she's currently single. So guys, get on that.
Oh yea, and she plays a MEAN game of Super Mario Bros. (NES style).

"Beat Your Heart Out"--The Distillers |
] |
Friday's are nice.
So get this. Despite a horrid, horrid, HORRID baseball season (we ended up second-to-last)...Somehow, we came back and won the damn Championship. Playoffs were automatic. Good thing, too, cuz we kicked so much ass. It was really crazy. We won. Never had a Championship win before. Feels pretty nice.
What didn't feel pretty nice was when I almost took myself out of the game via an injury in the very first inning. The spark notes version: Popped up foul ball behind third, yet too far for left field. Basically, perfect for shortstop (me). So, I sprint for it, and come within inches of it. At this moment, my human instinct to look where I'm running kicks in. I'm glad I did, because there was a steel pole (one of the corners of the fence, connected to the rest of the fence) right in my path. I had no time to stop or really move too much out of the way, but I did manage to twist my body so that my ribs and all the right side of my body took the blow instead of my face. Oh yea...no big deal. Except for, well, it was. Hurt like hell. I was down for a few minutes, just trying to make sure I could still breathe correctly and that no ribs were broken. I eventually get back up and play the rest of the game. Good thing it didn't start hurting until the next day, cuz we couldn't afford to lose any players. I got left with a giant bruise on my right side and it hurts to move certain ways now.
Long story short, we won. Which is awesome.
Hung out with my friend [Tan] Kelly last night. That was a lot of fun. We went to Olive Garden and pigged out on most-excellent food. Then we went to a coffee place and hung out outside for awhile. It was great seeing her again, she's a lot of fun. Gotta stop going five weeks without seeing her, haha.
Oh yea, and Norah's coming down today! That'll be awesome, haven't seen her in like...some time over a month. Most exxcellent.
I shall be picking Kristy up from work today cuz her Dude-Man-Bra (brother) is heading elsewhere at that time and can't get her. Not that I mind at all, just means more time that I get to spend with her (like I don't already see her almost everyday, haha). But I am definitely not complaining. Damn her for being so awesome. I blame her completely. =P
Okay, now it's time for "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!"
Today's guest? Kelly (of the Tan variety).
Kelly is too cool for school. She goes to UVA with me and is a fellow Anthropology major. Meaning neither of us will have jobs after college. Rock on! Really though, this girl is crazy. I'm just sad that it took me so long to finally become friends with her. She also makes the funniest faces, hands down.
Let's see...she has mid-back length dark brown hair, very dark brown eyes, and a nice kind of olive-esque complexion. She's very athletic, having played soccer for years. And because she told me this last night, her measurements are 38"-29"-38", giving her a very desirable hourglass figure. Take my word for it, I can vouch.
Oh yea. And don't even get her started on hand-cuffs...
That'll do it for today's segment of "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!" Tune in next time to find out who's next!

"Are You Gonna Go My Way"--Lenny Kravitz |

Arg. Work sucks. So damn boring. At least I have computer access. Though no AIM access. Booo.
Just remember, Zach...you're getting a helluva lot of money. =P
Anyhoo, what's new with me? I've got my first play-off game later today. Just to avoid confusion, we sucked pretty damn hard this year. I mean, like...really hard. There's no doubt in my mind that we were last place this year. How awesome are we? However, play-offs are automatic, doesn't matter how much you suck. So, in theory, we can win the play-offs, and still be in last place. Yea, we'll see.
So, I saw Superman Returns on opening night. I've gotta say, I've never been that much a Superman fan. Still not, really. But, the movie was incredible. It really was. Bryan Singer did an amazing job with this movie. Which just pisses me off more, since he left X-men to do Superman. That's why X-3 wasn't nearly as good as it could've been (don't get me wrong, I liked X-3 a lot, but it could've been done so much better). Now I see why X-3 was so short, too. To make room for the 2.5 hour long Superman movie. But seriously, as much as Superman the character annoys me, the movie really was incredible.
They showed the first theatrical trailer for Spider-Man 3 as well. I'm pretty damn excited. Not nearly as excited Sean, however, who proceeded to spaz and freak out during the trailer. Like a loser, he actually accidentally (so he says =P) hurt his girlfriend, Kelly, with his excitement. That's just sad.
Now I wanna just talk about comics, haha. I've never been a big DC fan. Its characters always pissed me off. They're always too powerful and always win, usually in a stupid way, too. Batman, for one, pisses me off. While I do appreciate his abilities in Gotham against his normal rogues gallery, he SHOULD not be hanging with the JLA. I mean, he held his own against Darkseid. WTF? Nearly every bad guy the JLA goes against can just blink and kill Batman. And don't even get me started on Super-"I can do anything and nothing can defeat me"-man. I just really want a villian to just stomp his ass hard. Not even using kryptonite. Just be his all-around superior and kick his ass.
The ONLY DC hero I like is the Flash. Mainly because super speed is my favorite super power. In my opinion, he's also the most powerful of the JLA and could easily take them all. Damn it...I wish I had super speed.
But yea. I'm much more of a Marvel kinda guy. X-men, Spider-Man, Avengers, etc. Much easier to relate to, especially when they're taking on common criminals and not UNIVERSE-DESTROYING COSMIC BEINGS.
Okay, that's enough of that. If you can tell, I'm just writing to write. I am so bored at work, I just want everyone else to be bored with me, haha.
Things with Kristy are going awesome so far (no, that was not a foreboding "so far"). I've been spending a lot of time with her lately, which is awesome. Especially since, come school time, we won't be able to see each other nearly as much, what with her being like...three hours away I think. I'm sure we could make something work. Either way, it's going awesomely right now.
Okay, now it's time for "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!"
Today's guest? Andrea.
Andrea, or "Dre" as we (only the cool people) like to call her, is cool beans. The coolest of beans, in fact. For comparison purposes, let's say she's next to the Fonzie of beans. She's even cooler than that. It's okay to feel jealous, she's just that awesome. She goes to JMU (Just Missed UVA, hahah...just kidding, Dre) and is lots o' fun.
I think she's about Alyse's height (check previous entry) which I think is around 5'2", as well as long dirty-blondish (?) hair. I'll find out what color her eyes are and edit it into the entry later (I have such a horrible memory) And she has bright, blue eyes. She can usually be found with Alyse and Kristy, cuz well, that's just how they roll.
That'll do it for today's segment of "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!" Tune in next time to find out who's next!

Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you, 'cause I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me. And near death, last breath, and barely hanging on. Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?
I went and saw "Click" tonight with Kristy, her brother Adam, and Brendan (former teammate). It was pretty good actually. I honestly enjoyed the more serious parts a lot, it really made the movie that much more captivating. _______________________________________________________________ I've actually already done this before, back in November of 2003. But, because I'm a big fan of nostalgia, I'm bringing it back for your personal enjoyment!
POST ANYTHING THAT YOU WANT, AND POST IT ANONYMOUSLY. ANYTHING. A STORY, A SECRET, A CONFESSION, A FEAR, A LOVE -- ANYTHING. BE SURE TO POST IT ANONYMOUSLY AND HONESTLY. POST TWICE IF YOU'D LIKE. THEN, PUT THIS IN YOUR LJ TO SEE WHAT YOUR FRIENDS (AND PERHAPS OTHERS WHO YOU DON'T EVEN REALIZE READ YOUR LJ) HAVE TO SAY.
(And yes, putting it all in caps makes all that much better).
Com'on, do it. Please? I really need something to keep me entertained tomorrow at work. That, and this could be awesome. _______________________________________________________________ And now for Zach's next installment of "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!"
Today's guest? Alyse.
Alyse is damn awesome. She's basically Kristy's best friend, which already makes her more awesome. She goes to CNU as well, a grade lower than myself, a psychology/education major. She is most excellent because she has gone to almost all of my baseball games. That's something I really appreciate.
She's like 5'2" or so, blonde-ish, and bright green eyes. This girl, she knows how to have fun. Lemme tell ya. She's always full of energy and has such a great sense of humor. Which is good for her, otherwise we would not be friends. All and all, this girl is one of a kind.
That'll do it for today's installment of "ZACH WRITES ABOUT HIS GIRL-FRIENDS!" _______________________________________________________________
Alright, that'll do it for tonight then. After Law and Order: SVU, it's bed time for me.
Will you still love me in the morning?
