Life updates and my Experiences with the Burkheart center for Autism within the past two weeks

Well I have obviously been offline and away from here for quite some time But now i am back. Anywho to keep things simple, my first week was a bit rough since I was still getting used to how things work at the burkheart center but I am adjusting. Though with my new living quaters its a work in progress as I am still getting everything placed to my liking. This second week has been alot better as I am currently doing two internships through them,
1) Texas tech Greenhouse or the Greenhouse as they refer to it as being.
2) the Theateare next door to them (though the name I can not seem to remember)

(Just thinking about it at the moment my blogging skills are probably aweful but yet here I am still doing it.)

On a seperate note I have started up another project for myself to work on. though to be specfic its a radio under the branding Stewart Warren.  I am not particualry sure since part of the model info is a bit obscurred. Though my game plan with the unit is to keep the original casing and add two additional speakers to make it a three channel system. Then with the dial that controls the radio station give it a  new backlight and maybe if possible allow it to control what the actual station it is. while in the grand scheme of things use modern audio equiment to operate it. Lastly the old record player removed and the space where it once was converted into storage space for magizines and whatnot. But overall the original asthethic kept as i do like the cracked wood appearence.

Now might be asking how I got it, well then to put it simply it was from buying two excellent condition desks from a family in Lubbock that did not have a need for them anymore. they were asking $30USD for it but they gave it to me for free as a gift along with a collection of awesome games, two of which remain unopened .

Thoughts on the Current State of Society

I do not know what the problem is lately with society, in particular with the furry fandom for example. But I am noticing lately that many people seem to just be out for themselves instead of showing a willingness to help others. Because to me, I would rather be around people who would do show some level of consideration and respect for how I feel and my personal feelings. Helping me out when I need help, or providing that tool that allows me to finish working on a project.
Society In a way has gotten to be what some or anyone would more or less consider being corrupt. As there are good people in the world worth doing business with, but still even the best of them are jerks in some way or another even some popufurs for example. But something I think people should realize is that we are all equal and no better than anyone else. Thus by natural law, we would not be allowed to judge another person because we do not agree with them as we are equally guilty. To a point with the Internet today there needs to an international standard that holds everyone accountable for their actions and wrong doings. If you do something that violates those general rules, then there is a price to pay for those activities. Simply put, act as though you were talking to another person in actual life, as we all see the world differently and in our own ways. The thing about negativity is you have to have it to build upon the good as you can choose to accept or reject the given information but either way you can not deny the truths presented within.
Overall you as individual reading this post can not deny the fact that "Life is not something to just take lightly, but instead use it as an opportunity to build and grow and develop your own life for the better!"

New Year's resolutions/Goals

Hello Everyone 

Well, folks, we are four days into 2017! Now, I figure many of you have chosen a few resolutions that you are planning on working on in this Year. Unlike my usual posts lets have ourselves a discussion! I do not usually make resolutions since I know they can be easily broken. But with that in mind, I would like to refer to them as being goals or things I can work on to become a better person a few of which are as follows:

1) Be Less of a Know it all

2) Learn to not be so defensive/offensive towards criticism.

3) Be Less controlling of the African Lion Species and let everyone have their say about them.

4) Act in a more considerate manner to show people how much I deeply care about something without being rude or disrespectful.  

With these ideas in mind, I do ask for your help in improving myself and keeping me in line for these goals to be reached. Now then with the discussion: "What are your Goals for the Year and how do you plan on making them happen or meeting them?"

Have a great day and I am curious to hear your thoughts and ideas.

Christmas Holidays Experiences


Hey, everyone!

Over the Christmas Holidays, I did not really do much of anything except spend time with my family. But on Christmas eve I went to a church service that to an extent was done by a Baptist church in mid-downtown Houston Texas. The church itself was nice as can be. Very much like an old church from the middle ages but a bit more modern. Going on to the service it was very nice but from my experience, it seemed as though they were acting more like a catholic church than baptist. Which to me, I felt like they were putting on the entire service as a show since they did have a good choir and orchestra. But there were times when the percussion section did drown out the rest of the group. While the choir could be heard without an issue.
 Later that week on the 26th of December 2015 I went to a festival called "Magical Winter Lights" at the Gulf Grey Hound Park in La Marque, Texas. With the cost of admission and parking, it was $25 in total.  For a one time visit event it's not too bad of a price jut to see the lantern sculptures but if you wanted to take part in the carnival aspect then that would be a different story with another $20 fee just for the unlimited ride armband.
During the event, there was these Chinese acrobatic show produced by the "Sichuan Zigong Acrobatic Troupe" that was oddly enough quite amazing and well put together. In the process of my visit to the event, I happened to actually record the entire 31-minute show and a bit of what I saw of the lantern sculptures. Now I do apologize for the shakiness as I was using my selfie stick to balance my action camera. I also realize that the video quality may be utter crap but I was working with the best I had on hand at the time. When watching the Acrobatic show part there was a brief moment where the stage lighting was very bright and distorted the video, hopefully, it's not too bad. In the process of editing this video, Youtube had a fit with copyright.

Now at this point, All I have to say is enjoy the show and Have an epic day.





 The song to the right of this section of was in the  Acrobatic show as it comes from a band in Japan  called "SMAP." Just a little tidbit I'd share with you for fans of Japanese culture.

Life Updates

OK so this post is going to be something of a two in one kind of blog post. As it will count for the post I missed doing yesterday. Other than that on with the post.

So yesterday in the afternoon I had an appointment the Burkhart center for autism research and development. Where I had a bit of a discussion about the programs they were offering to help me out in the development of my future. From the experience the two programs seemed to be of equal interest but due to it being that of a personal discussion, the information will not be given other than that of a link to their services. Later that afternoon I went to a very unique thrift store called Savers. Where I picked up a good deal on a used iMac G4 that was in pretty good shape other than a bit of cosmetic wear and tear. On the hardware side it is a fully working unit but the MAC OSX system does have a tendency to crash and the computer has to be restarted but it only happens when left in idle mode. CD-drive works but the motor that spins the disc might need to be replaced. But overall it is in pretty good shape. The other item I bought was a rare disney store item form the Jungle Book film, a shear kahn plush toy. Between the two items I do plan on selling them to make a decent profit to buy other things. The rest of the day I finished up my christmas shopping and ended the day with going to a Chinise buffet for dinner. Later that evening when testing the iMac my toshiba cavio hard drive died on me.

Incomplete story.


Below is a story I was working on but have since then not completed. But if those of you who do read my blog want to help continue developing this written work you are welcome to help it along.


Once upon a time in a world full of mystery, adventure, magic. In a time in which knight was revered as heroes and Kings and queens as good and respected rulers in the eyes of their Kingdoms. In a world in which humans do not exist but are seen as being a myth and Anthropomorphic animals rule the lands. A young lion by the name of Leo can be found playing about with his friends in the village square dreaming what it would be like as a knight defending what is considered as good. On a bright young morning he and a few of his friends are playing one of their usual games of hiding and seek, "haha found you Max" Leo said. "Aww, how come you always find me first?" stated max a small avian that is a bit shorter than Leonidas, another lion like Leo but with wings of an eagle. He was born with them from the beginning but noticed them when he was about 10 years of age. Also, Max does tend to have an enjoyment for the tasty things in life like fruits and nuts or anything sweet that he can get his hands on. "Well, you do tend to leave something of a trail with you eating all the time,a" sai,d Leo. True stated Max, "I do enjoy eating but even then I know I should probably stop since I have gotten in trouble for it." Oh said Leo, why is that? Max replies with "like that is important" in something of an annoyed tone of voice, "anyway shouldn't we be finding your brother Leonidas and what his name, Snow or Levi or whatever his name is." Leo replies, " it's Ronni actually and he's a wolf remember?" Yeah I remember know, said Max. Just as the two finish talking Leonidas comes flying in saying hey little bro in a fun energetic voice, then eventually lands on the ground, standing right next to me (Leo).

Just a boring day

Hello people, today there really is not much to discuss since my day was pretty much filled with boring old school work. Other than that there is not much to report about that anyone would find to be of an actual interest unless you have a bright idea worth mentioning.
