tillys

finally,my first job at tilly's. what an expierence it will be to me. im looking foward to my employees and everything. im ready to work as hard as i can push my body can go. even if it takes my body to be drenched in sweat. i will do whatever it takes to make sure this company runs well. my goal is to prove to my manager and employees i can do whatever you need me to do to get the job done. "it's my first day of work!" i said with excitement. im heading into the roseville galleria mall to go work. i want to get there faster so i take bigger strives on the pavement. im thinking in my head, "how many people would die to have a job like this?" "i get to work in a store with the best brands such as lrg, Neff, fox, volcom and more." "espicially with the up to beat music that gets you pumped and ready to shop or work" i just entered the mall and smell there fresh air,feel the happiness going through my body. i walk into tilly's and nervous and have those butterflies in my stomach and said hi to my manager michelle. she is now telling me a brief description on what my tasks are and what needs to be completed. "hey dion!", "were glad to see you here," ok so we need to get tables and unload the trucks." " i say this in my head, let's do this". after work my body was not capable of fumctioning normal. my muscles were aching and tired from unloading the truck. this was only the first day...

memories

    August 27th 1997, the worst upsetting day of my life. I just lost it. I clinched my fists with anger, feeling my tears running down my face. I was really confused and didn’t know what to do. Never in a million years thought I would lose my dad. I finally realized that I can lose anything at any time, it can be the person you love the most. I am honored to be named after him and am damn proud to represent it for the rest of my life. I get to show everyone my amazing name. it actually feels good to be named after a person especially if its after a man. The way he died is just terrible. He loved and enjoyed his job by working on buildings in a sky high crane. Being told a cable snapped at the bottom and the crane fell. I always had wondered what was he was thing as the crane fell viciously to the solid concrete? I can only think he was thinking about what was going through his head as he was heading to the pavement. It’s insane this is how he died. This story is like the complete opposite of a happy ending movie. And I have live with this till the day I die. I miss him. I love him. He was the man. He was a diehard redskins fan. My list goes on and on. It is simply just endless.

Growing is Forever (CNF)

Growing for ever makes me think extremely hard. this makes me think about life. opens my mind and my imagination comes into play. i was thinking when i watched it that the beautiful trees relate to us people everyday of our lives. When the trees stand nice and tall thats when life is amaing and everything is perfect. when a tree leans on one another, that means to me that that's when people need help and lean on you for the support you need. the other trees are surrounding the leaning tree for help and to support it up to keep it strong. The trees that are laying down means thay are takein a nap. a tree will grow again and replaceing it. like when people take naps and will wake and stand tall. i believe that the message that the video is showing why are we changeing in are lifes in the world?

eyes wide open

So much light. It is to hot. It is so bright. There is to much sun. This is no fun. Where's the sunscreen? sweating so bad, I'm finally becoming lean. i moved to the shad, i want some Gatorade. to clinch my thirst. i just saw sawyers little brother not dancing, that's a first. Everyone sitting down looking clueless. starring at there paper not writing.....Foolishness.
