What Can I do for you?


There is, perhaps, some great higher power out there that has been making me the successful man I am in the business world.  It is kind of painful that we can not avoid green paper to trade for the things we need and want but then again it does serve a purpose or there is a reason why we do so.  Either way, I'm not complaining. So, my last entry was put with a lot of thought. I wrote it because I felt like I am addicted to the world I am in right now. I was thinking about how 'too' perfect heaven would be because based on my understanding, we go through struggles before we reach happiness. I was thinking about how heaven would just be too perfect for me and that I better see my friends and family up there because if I don't then I am pretty sure I would try to find a way back here.  It's just that I'm enjoying and had been enjoying what I been doing here in this world. Do you guys kind of understand? It's like emotions and feelings whether it is sad, mad, glad, etc are gifts for us whereas a robot couldn't be given or programmed to understand a human or be a human. 

I still believe there is a higher power out there, still. I believe in God and I guess I'm kindly asking that I stay longer here before it is my time to come. God's creations are just amazing to me.

Heaven is only ten minutes away


Drove and told myself I'm ten minutes away from heaven. 
I arrived and there my girl and my daughter was waiting for me. 
I said hello and she said, "Heaven is ten minutes away." 
Then we packed our bags and headed for California for a town called San Diego. 
I had been planning for this trip for such a long time and met my sisters there. 
Up on the roof of their apartment they shouted, "heaven is still ten minutes away."
So, I went through downtown and stopped at a favorite shop
got some cookies and some clothes and the store owner still said, "you're still ten minutes away"
Outside of San Diego is a small suburban place. 
There we closed on a house, signed the final papers and our agent said, "Now you're only ten minutes away from heaven." 
I have used the kitchen many times and have changed bed sheets for so long and wondered how my daughter was getting taller each day. 
Then an accident happened and I can hear the sun saying, that I was going to heaven. 
And all this time heaven wasn't too far away. 
What a shame, I said. What a shame.

Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf

I have so many questions in my head. I just need to know why I can feel my own skin and not others. How did we ever develop these emotions and how did we learn how to name each feeling. Because I'm starting to feel so much for the world. :(

Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf,
Ring them bells for all of us who are left,
Ring them bells for the chosen few
Who will judge the many when the game is through.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,
For the child that cries
When innocence dies.

Blowin' in the wind


How many years can a mountain exist Before it's washed to the sea? Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head, Pretending he just doesn't see? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind.

There are different names for the same things



Hey, hey, hey. So, so, so. I am drinking the soup from my oh so good shrimp and lemon flavored noodles! Thank the Lord for instant foods! It is currently 1:56 and I am procrastinating on my Success Strategies class midterm. Whack. I just hope I pass the midterms and make sure I do better. I am loving what God has been getting me in through. As a matter of fact, I want to do something so amazing for Jilana. I want to do something just for her. I just don't know what it is. Anyways, I'm thinking of a small music project of just a bunch of covers.  I know I always say that I'm going to do a music project but all these things always come up especially when I now have a family. All I can say is to expect it pretty soon. I'm also ready to do some photographs! So if anyone needs a photographer I can do a shoot for less monies! 

I'm loving every day off because Jilana and I make it the best before it's time for another busy schedule.

Remember that God is on your side. :)

Text 'fun' to 4777 to flirt


Sitting in my room with the television on, I wonder how my physical appearance has changed. There's a medium sized pizza box that I've already finish and I'm currently working on a 2 liter Dr. Pepper.  I'm procrastinating on when I'm going to try to keep my shape. It's like a new addiction.  There's just so much food out there and I'm willing to pay to taste.  You can easily compare me to a drug sniffing police canine when my stomach is empty. So empty. I tell myself that I can eat much better food with all the food in my refrigerator and my cupboards but it's the fact that for a price at a restaurant someone can prepare the food for me instead of having to whip out the tomatoes and slice them. WHACK. 

Today was a good day. I was late for work but I sold a car. Niiiiiiice. I love the position I'm in right now. I thank God everyday for this. I'm really in heaven.

Love,
Nikko.

And you find a love that's true.

Hey guys!

So many things have been coming up. Anyways. I am going to start selling photos online. I have found a few places where you can sell images. How cool would that be! I could use the extra money for the debt I am in. Tsk tsk, I hate bills. God has given so much blessings this year and I need to keep remembering to thank for my beautiful daughter and for the current state I am in because I am feeling stronger than ever before and feeling better.  I can't live without God and I have found that it (not that I'm pushing any others that they have to beli
eve in what I believe in) is just not complete without God. Just like how an Asian can't do without Bhudda.  I do deeply respect everyones beliefs and if it works, I say, "Believe on!"  

Ok guys, if you notice my pictures I have this bothersome 'specks' or dust spots on my images. I was so mad! I then realized that my sensor was dirty and I went home trying to clean it and the 'specks' wouldn't come off! So I had to go to Wolf Camera and they tried to clean it so now they have to send it to Nikon for a deep cleaning. I've got to wait a few weeks till I can't get my cam! SUCKS. I've got to get used to my backup camera which is the Nikon D60 and possibly start playing with my film camera.  Now I've got to go back and do my shoots again. I love that park anyways. It has the best view of downtown Nashville in my opinion. 

Enjoy :)
