"Moving on up"

I have moved my blog to wordpress.com. http://matt09jones.wordpress.com/

So stop by, read and comment on my blog

I believe…

 

I am looking for direction for my career. This is my second semester attending Darton, where I have been lucky enough to meet amazing people. I currently work at toys r us where there are never guests in the store outside of December. I grew up in Sylvester, Ga. We are peanut capital of the world and are proud of it (well, at least until the salmonella outbreak). My father, Tommy Jones, is a farmer. This has created a great and interesting outdoor childhood. I didn't push myself too much in high school. I have made the promise to do better in college. My dream is to major in sports journalism and later become a broadcaster for anyone of the three major sports in America.

I believe that someone must work for what they receive. I believe that Politics start arguments. I believe that brainwashing is the focus of some religions. I believe that music is an art that can speak to the world. I believe if you do something, do it right the first time. I believe that one person can affect the world. I believe that people can change. I believe it's all about the little things in life. I believe that there is just one way to skin a cat.

I like to play and watch sports. I like Facebook and chatting with all my friends. I like laughing at any and all random things. I like the effect on my people skills that my job has had. I like the smell of the bread and coffee aisle. I like how one moment can change your life. I like challenging my mind with discussions. I like working out. I like the feel of an ocean breeze on a cool afternoon. I like the sound of laughter. I love the feeling after watching an inspirational movie.

I do not care for arrogance. Confidence is something that can be an incredible thing when used wisely. I do not care for greasy foods. I do not care for professors that just stand up and lecture. I do not care for lies. If you said you are going to do something, just do it. I do not care for the sound of fingernails against a chalkboard. I do not care for the sight of a hungry child diggin in a dumpster. I do not care for five dollar coffee.

I am tired of excuses for not getting things done. I am tired of Authority figures abusing their power. I am tired of hypocrites. I am tired of the norm. I'm ready to "spread my wings" and go beyond. I am tired of the bs lines that politicians give for the public to believe.

I favor challenging myself to the fullest. I favor the good acting. One of my favorite actors is Denzel Washington. I favor the smell of home cooking after a long day of work and school. My mother is the best cook around. I favor writing papers on topics that interest me. I favor Team Jacob. I favor the sights and sounds of Miami, Florida. I love the beaches at sunset.

New Blog... finally

so i haven't blogged in forever, and i have had this missing link in my life where my blog once filled... so not too much has changed since my last blog. Just started my 2nd semester of college and i don't have anybody in my classes that i know. (which i will use as a challenge to meet new people) It's a little different without my friend, Mason, in my class... cause i'm used to being dynamic duo with him on everything including jokes. But this will just give me an oppurtunity to work on my skills as a whole when meetin new people. So I have this friend, Heather, which i have come to care for. :)I just don't understand why i have to fall for her even more everytime i see her...despite the fact that every sign seems to point in the opposite direction, i seem to see past her flaws... and in some weird and crazy way, like her because of them. I know what you are thinking... "Matt, just marry her and you two can live happily after..." Well, there is a catch obviously, and that my friends, is that she has a boyfriend. I don't want to hate the guy, because he seems like a cool guy. It's just that he stands in the way of a me and Heather. I have come to adore her in every way and haven't felt this way about a girl before. And why i was being lazy earlier, i was thinking how i'm gonna feel when she transfers... it's most def gonna suck majorly. But i also don't wanna look back and think of how i spent my time going all out for this girl and it was for nothing. So this is the dilemma i face... feel free to comment your opinions, like seriously. but for now thats all world. Night
