Wrecked

Probably the only single word that would accurately describe my state of mind right now.

I think it's been about a month since my last post, but definitely longer than 3 weeks if not a month.

Things that have happened since:
Got fed up with the Galveston University, so I'll be in college station for the spring semester. It's cool, but I guess that will help me decide wether or not I want to go to Stanford or Vanderbilt.

Been to seattle a few times. Dad is buying some real estate and he's leaving it to me in his will so he wanted me to like the houses and offices as well, which is kind of him.

Started filming the new web series I've been wanting to get on, I'm pretty content on debuting around christmas or new years.

Done with political science, forever. Finished with an A so high that I can make 2 zeros on the next 2 assessments and still have a 93, and I'm going to do just that, more nap time.

Set a life record of # of all nighters pulled in a month. 14... with 4 of them being consecutive. This last week (november 15th thought the 19th) i had at least one test ever single day. Speech on Monday, Biology and physics lab on Tuesday, Political Science test on Wednesday, Chemistry and Chemistry Lab on Thursday, and Physics and Biology lab final on Friday. That would explain why I'm just now waking up... I went to bed at like 3 yesterday afternoon, Woke up at 12:52, lol.

Got my new iMac in, finally. It's going to play the role of a tv as well, thanks to hulu. No more 13 inch laptop as tv. Doubled it and added an extra inch for humor with 27 inches lol. Pretty cool wireless keyboard and magic mouse, though they did cost an extra 150. Waiting on some speakers and a Western Digital My Book to come in from Walmart. It'll be home in time for thanksgiving.

My dad is experimenting with my security detail... I was at the mall yesterday with 3 people in regular (skater punkish) clothes, and they we no older than 23... it made me feel tacky, but it was slightly more discrete than 3 secret service type people in suits with cuff link mics and whatnot... but i definitely didn't feel as secure as i's used to, because i have friends older than these new guys. But it's just an experiment, I hope.

Got inducted to the Aggie Scholar Program, which is cool I guess, it's an automatic thing if you have above a 3.5 or whatever, so it's not like I applied or anything. But I got a nice pin and it gave me an excuse to get my dad in a suit =]

What else?

Oh I'm actually enjoying my life with my friends, to an extent. I have a great friend who is like on the exact same page as I am ideologically, and we have a similar economic background (my family is into law, and hers is into business), but I spend most of my time with her, and she's just a cool, down for whatever, kind of girl. And she's going to college station as well, and she's pre-med bio major so we just became close by default, though she is a little conservative, but not repulsively, thats probably the only difference, oh and she's columbian and cuban lol but other than that we're like the same person.

But other than her, I've been making a few trips to Idaho to visit my friend at Boise State, she's pretty stoked about their football program, and we're going to go to my houses in seatlle for spring break and do the spaceneedle thing and what not. And of course I've been to Ohio to visit the misses and her family like 3 times a month lol, and she visits me like 2-3 times a month, (during the week and whatnot). and of course I've been using skype regularly, to keep in touch with my UT, A&M, UH and SMDEP friends.

All and all life is great, sure school is stressful, and the school I'm at is just ridiculously a fail, but it really isn't an issue because I have friends who are amazing and they take my mind off of the things in life that aren't as glamourous as I'd like them to be. I love life right now though, but going to college station is going to be a little risky, just because it's a different campus, a bigger campus, I don't think it will be any harder, if its not easier, because the professors are legit. I'll be starting to work on my business minor next semester, as well as Ochem (sigh) but I don't think it will be to horrible. Who cares.

But right now I'm just in a relaxed state, pretty nonchalant about everything, but maybe it's because i'm so relieve that the last week is finally over, or that the semester is basically over, or that I'm so over Galveston, or maybe it's because I actually got some sleep.

...
So I just read this and I forgot to tell you the bad things.

The reason I'm leaving Galveston is because the idiot in charge of the spring semeste set the schedule up to where all of my classes are at the exact time. when I say all my classes, I mean 2 of them because thats how many were applicable at the time to my future major. ochem and physics. First of all the physics profs suck. and ochem in it's self sucks, plus theres only 1 class and its with the hardest prof. and i mean thats cool but I'm not about to just stay there to take 4 hours. that's a waste of a semester, I've taken more hours in a summer session... Plus the food sucks. I've been living off of roman noodles and expensive restaurants and fast food, simply because the cafeteria is mostly vegetarian for whatever reason, and what regular food they do have is just awful. and I cant cook my own food because the crappy dorms don't even have like a community kitchen. So if it's late, I'll straight up eat roman. If it's early, I'm at Mcdonalds or Whataburger. And if I'm with Giselle (the girl i was telling you about above, the cuban columbian) we will just go to landry's or rain forest cafe.

Oh and being an RA is pretty ridiculous. The work is just dumb. And my neighbor is an idiot. let me tell you about this guy. First of all he's a smoker... and I get that its a free country, but I instantly have a tainted opinion of people who smoke just because its idiotic. But thats not all, he has a girlfriend, who is apparently a slut from what I've heard... good for her. But the university implements Visitation hours. Once visitation hours are done, no one who is not a student, faculty, or staff member is allowed in the halls. And if it's a guy dorm, no girls. It's a guy dorm lol. I've given them 3 warnings, which is seriously ridiculously generous, and then i wrote them up 4 different times for the same stuff. Quiet hours and visitation hours. I mean for God's sake you're my neighbor, you're the one person who will never get away with anything. But he's just an idiot, every time he gets written up he wants an appeal, and he gets it or whatever because the law requires it, but its seriously a waste of time. I knock on the door, he opens it, she's in there, it's after hours. simple as that. It's not like I found weed and he says it's not his... its plain and simple. But theres more. I'm in charge of getting announcements to the residents so i'll post them on their doors, this idiot will just take it off of his door and put it back on mine. Wtf? i made the announcement, i know exactly what it says, theres no need to notify me. I really wished there was a hurricane just so when i put up an evacuation announcement he would have just put it back on my door and wondered why no one was there and where all the water in his room came from. And the other day i was walking (lmao) and he's walking. And I'm walking with Giselle and we're walking and he's walking in the same direction. but our sidewalks are about to become one sidewalk. I'm on my phone and i'm not paying attention and he somehow gets there the same time we do, but he definitely saw us and he almost runs into me... I mean who does that? and I mean he's probably 5'10" but weighs about 140-150 tops. I weigh 125... I'm 5'5" so this guy is ridiculously skinny, so it wasn't really an issue for my security to take him down, which is exactly what happened. And he dresses like an idiot. he'll wear sunglasses, when the suns at his back and barely shining... and he'll wear his little hat with the bill at like 5 o'clock or 7 o'clock, but never 6... Who does that? I thought we were in college. And after i write him up he will try arguing with me, and i mean i get that, but he's an idiot because he tries using big words... first of all using big words doesn't win arguments, logic does. Second of all you lose all momentum when you don't know what you're saying. I asked him why he doesn't just follow the rules and he cleverly says "It's the epitome..." and I'm laughing at this point, and I think to myself 'is he done talking or is this a pause' then he doesn't say anything and I'm thinking to myself 'the epitome of w hat... oh wait, i don't think he knows what that word means...'. Then he comes at me with this nonsense about how his mother is a lawyer. At this point I have this 'bitch, please' look on my face because lawyers don't scare me, and I don't know if they should, but I think they're supposed to just by the way people threaten me with them.... but he doesn't know about my families extensive law background... but I have my security look his mom up.... this lady is an injury attorney.... how irrelevant. I mean, maybe I hurt his pride, but thats not of the laws concern... let alone mine. And then one night I wrote him up and he yells 'I hate short people' lmao I go knock on his door and I ask him how tall his mother is. if she's shorter than him then he hates her, and if he's not, he's a hypocrite and he hates himself lol. He chose not to answer the question, probably the only time i've considered something he has done to be smart. And then after I wrote him up one night he decides to draw a penis on my door lol and the funny part is that it was the underside of a penis. I never knew what the underside of my penis looked like until this lol but seriously who looks at the underside? unless he's had a dick on his face or in his mouth or something... but because it was a crappy drawing, i posted a notice on his door saying "if you're going to vandalize my door, put some effort into it. As much as I'm happy for you and your obsession with the penis, either keep it to yourself or draw better dicks." lmao But other than the one idiot, who happens to live next door to me, my floor is great. the rest of my residents love me, and we have great fun. They threw me a party for my birthday lol which is the first time anyone outside of my family has thrown me one. but other than this one idiot (oh and he's the only other sophomore on my floor... you'd think he'd be the most mature person on the freshman floor... nope lol. but it's whatever, it's his undergraduate record. To be completely honest, I feel sorry for him. Just because he doesn't have the intellectual capacity to comprehend that what he's doing is wrong, and he wont stop lol. but I'm over it, I actually have things to do lol.

But other than that, nothing is really wrong.

And i think i'm trending towards white cars now because giselle drives a white 3 series and she doesn't wash it at all lol. i washed my mercedes every week, because it was black. but I think I'm leaning towards beamers now, but white. oh and im still into mini's but i do still want balck suvs because thats just a little bit more imposing lol. but i might get a new car for college station. Possibly a 5 series, brown seats =] or a mini clubman. who knows, we shall see.

But I'm going to let you guys go, got some skyping to do.

plan for tomorrow but live for today

These last few days have been full of accidents...

So I accidentally went to UT, which accidently cause me not to adequately study for my polisci test, accidentally screwed up my sleep schedule, accidentally fell asleep in a meeting with some investors, accidentally drank some 3 day old starbucks that was left in my microwave before I left for UT, accidentally did next weeks physics homework instead of this weeks, accidentally took a 4 hour nap when my alarm was only set for 40 mins, which accidentally led to me missing dinner and a staff meeting, and accidentally promised a friend of mine(girl) that I would go to corpus christi with her... I think most of these accidents are due to the lack of sleep I got at UT.

But the work I did on that polisci test was no accident =]
Worst case scenario, I made a B, and usually I do about 50-75% better than my worst case. Like is I wasnt 100% sure on like 10 problems, I probably got 5-8 of them right. I'll keep you guys posted.

Well I have work to do, since I just wasted 4 hours.
Later Gators.

So I'm at UT for the weekend

The lady thought it would be cool to look at some Texas schools, because she knows im reluctant to leave texas due to the financial burden that will occur if I were to leave. So she is a fan of UT (seems like everyone is). I've not been to anything academic, but this place is entirely way too liberal. I'm not conservative but this place is just ridiculous. The parties that I could get into sucked, some dont let guys in, and some dont let people under 21 in. But the ones that I went to absolutely sucked. And people are just not normal here! like I don't even know how to explain it... but I do have some great friends here and I don't know how they deal with it but UT is definitely no longer on the short lists of places for me to go to school. You'd think the kids would be of a higher caliber... dont be fooled. And I know A&M is the same way, but the wierd kids at UT are like the corps kids at A&M, at least the Corps gives them a curfew and a bed time and stuff. Ugh. Also Austin is too much of a metropolitan city, like I can do a little metro but not like austin, there nothing peaceful around, everything is noisy. But it is good to see some of my friends from highschool that i havent seen, and its good to meet some of the ladies friends. I think the only reason she wants to go here is because she has more friends here than at A&M but thats a conversation to be had later. And I'm still pretty content on leaving the state but who knows. In short I'm at UT and just getting away from Galveston and the same people everyday for a while, but I'm still studying and whatnot.

I appreciate credible opinions

So I'm in NYC right now. New york city, in case you aren't familiar with the acronym. I'll talk more about my trip later, but I'm hanging out with Reshma Shetty and family. If you don't know who Reshma Shetty is, google her, immediately =]. in my very subjective opinion, most beautiful brown girl to walk the earth =]. But this is about a pretty amazing offer.

So this is how it started. I'm sitting with my dad and the rest of my family and we're having a conversation. Oh and Reshma lol. But I get into the subject of apartments and moving in with my girlfriend if I decide to go to Case. (Case Western University). And My dad is a very anti-joint living kind of guy, and my bother and sisters are pretty pro-co-living. So we're at some fancy restaurant, (saw a few of the Kardashians, who happen to be surprisingly short lol, not that anythings wrong with being short, i just expected them to be taller) but another person who happened to be there a was Mr. Lee Bollinger, the President of the law school at the University of Columbia. He and his wife were there and while we were waiting to be seated we were all sitting next to each other and my sister and I brought the subject up of moving in with her in ohio and going to Case. If went from apartment to religion and from religion to school and from school to becoming a professional and from being a professional back to an apartment. And I guess Mr Bollinger was observing, I later found out he knows my brother, well knows of him I guess. So apparently he saw my composure and performance during the debate and was impressed so he offered me a spot at the law school, class of 2016, if I graduate from Case. I told him that I might take him up on that offer after I look into the medical school and also the availability of the MDJD program. So I definitely have a spot at an Ivy League Law Program! But medicine hod priority, but under the odd circumstance that I don't have any med schools accept me, Ill def be making bank as a corporate lawyer or defense attorney, But he thought my views were unorthodox but I defended them brilliantly and have tons of potential to be one of the best lawyers or corporate america. Had this guy just been some random person, I probably wouldn't have thought much of the compliment, but the fact that he is the president of a law school means he's good, he knows what good and he know what good looks like before it actually is good. He saw that in me, I was flattered and Reshma was impressed =] which was an extra stroke of my ego =] But yah it made me realize that credible opinions mean so much more. If someone who wasn't brilliant said I was brilliant, I'd probably smile, with a condescending intent, but when a brilliant person suggests that I'm brilliant, I genuinely value it and keep it with me for an extended period of time. It fells great. And this isnt just about intelligence it's anything, style, humor, finances, etc etc. But anyways thats my weekend, not too much else going on, just enjoying being around reshma and the family.

I'll get back to you guys later

So this is how its going to go down

So the blogging was a wee bit of stress relief. So I would expect periodic blogs unitl I get some time together to create a new one. I probably wont be posting regularly, unless i decide to start doing what I intended to do. But the plan is to definitely have a blog to supplement my mini web series. so thats kind of all i wanted to tell you guys and gals =]

something to be expecting whenever i have time, is a more in-depth update of my life. Probably this weekend or something.

Oh and spiritual note. If God told you that someone has a problem and you know you're the solution to that problem, would you help them? But it's a little bit more complicated than that. I used to fancy this person, and I do miss them, but I'm pretty sure they mutually feel the same way. And and God isn't forcing you, he's just bringing it you your attention. I would be willing to help them like forget the past and all but out of uncertainty they would have to come to me. Oh and no i'm not talking about Hanan, I'd probably address that in that situation. But me and this person were great friends for like 2 yrs then I went to college and we stopped talking pretty much.

But does the fact that they would have to come to me make me like a crappy person, in an objective opinion. But I def want to help them. and I'm pretty sure they read this, or they did before I stopped posting. But to the person(s) who has a problem that I can help with, and they know I can, please email me. I'm more than happy to help you, the deal is you have to take the first step and ask. Thats all I'm saying. I'm actually anxious to see if they take advantage of my efforts. If not it's fine, but I definitely wish them the best

oh and just incase they don't have the email adress that im using: garylynn.hay@gmail.com message it anytime and I will respond within 30 mins (unless im giving a presentation or studying or sleeping) but otherwise, i get it within 5 mins to my phone, im always on the computer, and im more than happy to help.

well I'll keep you all posted with how that works, oh and don't worry person(s) I'll keep your identity concealed ;]. btw this was meant for 1 person but if other people have problems i'm more than happy to help. anything I can do, just let me know. Straight up.

Alrighty, well I've got some meetings with different investors to attend, then study time. (with a few breaks in between of course ;]

over and out

4 words: White chocolate mocha latte.

Tonight's a venti kind of night... I posted that (along with the title as my status and so far 23 people like it. I only have maybe 500 friends, and it was posted 34 mins ago. I guess there are multiple people who like that drink or who are pulling all nighters)

So people are complaining about how worried they are about me because they don't know whats going on with me. and these are people that matter to me, otherwise i would not be typing this.

But hold on for like an hour, I'm in a study group for biology... it's 12:30 in the morning... brb.

ok so I'm back. So I need to relieve some stress and I haven't had time to work out so I'm going to use this as an avenue of relief and see how i feel afterwards.

So I'm very academically, socially, and nutritionally frustrated with this semester.
Academically I'm teaching myself chemistry, and physics. I get physics, I have a 98 going into midterms, but chemistry... this is my problem with chemistry. I did okay teaching myself chem last semester because it was mostly what we covered in highschool until the end. so i already had an idea of how things were supposed to go and what sounds reasonable. I get that college is all about taking the initiative to do what it takes to succeed, but i feel like chemistry is the exception to the rule. I don't think any school should hire a chem prof who is incapable of professing his knowledge of the subject to people who have little or no knowledge there of. chem just isnt something you can teach yourself, at least not with an adequate understanding. and physics just makes sense to me, i can see physics happening in front of my face, i can imagin the scenario and visualize wether the outcome i calculated is even remotely close to what would actually happen. But i dont see thermodynamics in front of my face, I cant observe an equilibrium shift when im walking through the campus. I could go on, but it's late and I'm tired.

Some of the things that I've been working on:
-summer research application that will publish my work
-a mini web series with a friend of mine (coming out around christmas, hopefully)
-a book, not going to be released anytime soon, and i think I told you guys about the book before, but i'm about half way done with it, or at least i hope i'm half way done
- and the business model that I have not even told anyone about. Don't take it personal, the only person who even has the slightest idea is my brother and thats because he's my lawyer and i cant just do this illegally lol i like my freedom, and women, and food, and regular clothes, and shoes with shoelaces.
- and a few other things that are not really of anyones concern, well they are but not a group of people. each is like on a need to know basis with 1 person per thing... it's complicated.
- oh and if this stress relief via blogging works, im going to start another blog. have no fear I don't plan on talking shit about people or families. at least not on a consistent basis. but this blog will probably be a lot less exclusive, and i may post it on my facebook page, and promote it with my new mini web shows. but i think it's going to be a daily life kind of blog. but im not going to post on it everyday. I'll let yo guys know how it turns out

so those were the projects

current obstacles:
-chemistry. well school in general
-nutrition sucks because I'm eating like once a day at best, like one real meal the rest is snacks and drinks
-dad
-lack of exercise
- lack of sleep
-lack of fun


and i'd say that things I can be thankful for are:
-my love life is relatively phenominal, considering what i used to have and what I currently have. we're doing amazing, and i'll send pics and vids to the people on the email list
-the market isn't doing too bad
-finances are on point, no expenses, a tremendous amount of income (interest is helping a bit)
-idk if i told you guys but stanford and vanderbilt accepted me for the next fall, and im thinking about applying to ut just for fun i guess. college station is still in the running. who knows. (waiting on emory and dartmouth, sending in apps of duke, case western, northwestern, and uc berkley next week)
- looking forward to november (when i go look at apartments in different cities depending on where i go to school, breeders for my gsd or doberman in the summer, send in applications ffor research at stanford med and md anderson (just for the summer, something to put on undergrad resume), probably adding to my technological arsenal (ipad(pfft), new slr camera, 2nd monitor for imac, possibly a batline(2nd phone with a number on a need to know basis) and a better expresso machine...)
-apparently im on the dean's list. didnt know we had one here.... not exactly something im proud of... but im not ashamed.... its just like something i would say "noted" to lol.
- semester is half way over


so i know I wasn't to specific and I'll post another blog within the week and get you guys the specifics.

Don't think I'm back yet though because this is strictly therapeutic, if it doesn't work then you'll go back to being ignorant of my life events

But all in all things are well. minor complaints, but I like life (outside of school). A lot has changed, and a lot of that change was long overdue. I don't know if I would change the way anything happened if given the opportunity, i want to say i would just so i don't sound like a bitch. but I cant say that i'm 100% on that as being an honest answer. But I'm benefitting from the way things have ennded up going. I'm happy, productive, and living a relatively discrete life. I'm all about discretion. But let me go to bed. I need to be up in about 3 hours studying more.

We live and we learn (at least thats the way it's supposed to happen)

Thank you for your time

Hey I'm not back, but I just wanted to take this time to thank and unnamed person who reached out to me via facebook. The world gets a lot smaller when you have a facebook (in my experience). But me and this amazing individual have had the same problems with the same people and have the same ideologies about a few things we deal with on an everyday basis.

I had no idea this person existed. well actually I did, but I had no idea they were a reader, or that they went through what I were going through. They reached out to me via my facebook link on my page and they sent me a message with their support. This is the first time something like this has happened to me, well coming from a complete stranger. But boy, it's so relieving to know that you're not the only one in the world who is dealing with the problem you're dealing with. and it was even better because we have mutually been through the same exact situation, with the same exact people, and had the same exact issues.

I'm sure more than one group is thinking it's them who I'm talking about but it's not only 1 group. But yah, i'm not going to be brazen about it. But it feels good to know that I'm not the first, and obviously I won't be the last

But thats all that I wanted. Thank you again my new friend. This kind of makes you a minor hero in my life. for whatever thats worth.

Well back to life it is
