three cheers for _______, HIP HIP HURRAAYYYY!!

   Whats good folks. Its been a short while. Dropped the computer and had to wait for apple to send me a new one. But fear not as it has arrived. They even upgraded me WOOT WOOT!!! 
   Went surfing with my friend Heather this afternoon and as we were leaving the car wouldn't start. Luckily my gut instinct told me to pack a  6 pack of Budweiser which was finished along with my stack of PB&J sandwiches and entire box of saltine crackers. All of which will be a part of my every day surf bag from now on.
    Had an audition for an indie film where I would be a twin, I sure hope they split screen my like the Parent Trap with Lohan. That's pretty much my career goal as an actor. 
    Some of you may remember, I picked up a foosball table a few months back. I AM SOOOO GOOD!!! The only person i can't quite dominate is my flat mate who, luckily for me, likes to play just about every free opportunity we have. He's currently up on me on the win count but i'll come back. I HATE LOSING!!
     Well, that's all for now. Going to bed now to wake up early to catch the decent swell rolling through. Fingers crossed the car doesn't break down again.

Cheers
Kerry :)

DON'T STOP BELIEVING!!!!!

Every once in a rare moon, it's refreshing to wake up to the sound of the alarm on my iphone with sticky note reading "DON'T PRESS SNOOZE!!!!," knowing I have something remotely significant to do this morning. Whether or not an LA models promotional shoot is significant is subjective, I suppose. Either way I'm up. 
   I tried to figure out the auto brew on my coffee pot last night but I woke to an empty pot. 
   Journey's Escape album is spinning Don't stop believing. The cool thing about records, aside from the sweet unique sound and the fact that they're just awesome, is that it forces you to listen to the whole record whereas the MP3 player has turned every artist into a one or two hit wonder.

Just saying...

   Is there a difference between confidence and arrogance? Can a man be confident realistically without coming off presumptuous? And what if he's the introverted type? What if he's an introverted top 50 model? Does his lack of outgoing charisma or ability to please people automatically make him conceited until he proves otherwise? Can he prove otherwise? How does one go about doing so? Perhaps he's introverted because he's arrogant? Or perhaps he's introverted because he lacks confidence. But then to say he's an arrogant introvert contradicts our thesis, "Confidence and arrogance are one in the same."
   Now if they aren't the same, can a guy then be an assertive introvert who isn't pompous?
   Will we ever stop judging a person by their prequel?


God speed,
Kerry

   Due to lack of time, I had to split up my miles today and run 5 in the AM and another 2 just a few minutes ago. I can't believe I actually ran 7 miles today. I like to say getting into shape is happening so fast because i'm young but these here knees will disagree (i'm currently icing them.)
   20 minutes is what it takes to ice so during which i'm going to walk to through the randomness that i do on my computer.
   First off we check the blogs. My Bookmarks is full of blogs from film, sports to random hobbies. Some of my favorites are Dlisted.com, theplaylistDeadline and my favorite place to shop steepandcheap.
   Now that all those are said and done, I'm going to let you in on a little secret hiding place of mine. Tranquility <-- All it takes is a pair of noise canceling headphones and you're back in mexico on the beach getting that 5 star massage. Your mind is running a million mph alone on a run with nothing to do but ponder, dream and aspire. Only this time you won't have to ice or stretch after. It is that thing that is more precious than any metal or rock. It's happiness from a 25 cent gum ball machine...
 

      

May your dreams be sweet and the day that follows be blessed.

                   I must stretch now :/

Tickle me Elmo

   I ran 8 miles today!!!! It's getting to the point where I almost actually enjoy running... I say almost because i'm sitting here icing me knees as I write this.
   I'm not always a real people person. I really enjoy my alone time every now and then and lately this seems to be the only place I can really get away from everything. That's what's so great about LA in comparison to NY. I like the Apple in small doses. What it has going is that there's ALWAYS something to do. Whether it's one of the million dive bars in the village, bowling, or even just walking around (there's NO better place to people watch than Union Sq.) But sometimes that's the problem. There's always something to do and never nothing to do. It lacks the awesomeness that is tranquillity.
   That's where LA comes in. It literally has it all. And let's not forget the weather? I mean it's absolutely fantastic about 360 days a year. And don't give me that bull crap about how much you prefer season changes because, like your common empire state squabble about how you can get nature upstate, you can also get it east of LA.
  
    My 20 minutes are up. Time to put the ice away and sleep.

  

when i grow up?

   There's just something about working long hard hours towards a personal goal that, even though you hate it at the time, makes you smile at the end of the day. It makes cold beer taste better and even helps you get over the fact that your flat mate used up all the toilet paper and stuck a nasty Smirnoff Ice in the cupboard with the refills along with the note "YOU GOT ICED" as you drop to a knee.
   My dream, unfortunately, doesn't require those long hard hours so instead I fill my time with random hobbies such as converting old road bikes into wicked fixies, learning to play guitar, training for a marathon, fixing the nasty slice that seems to be glued to my driver, writing a script, memorizing sides, and training my dog. All whilst breaking yet another iPhone < That's probably my forte. 
   Things i'd like to add to that list;
- I wish i went camping more often. The outdoors is more of my element.
- I want to learn to cook.
- I wish I attended more concerts.
- I want to slow dance with Taylor Swift at a dive bar?

Any how, I'm off to bed. 

But first...

Prayer Request;
   My little brother is on the verge of accepting Jesus into his life. I'm very VERY excited to hear this as it's something I've been praying for for a while now. His name's Brandon and he's 16 years old. It would mean a lot to me. 

Thanks friends,

Kerry

the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round

   I previously mentioned on my Twitter that I have accepted the challenge of running 30 miles in 30 days which doesn't seem like much to the avid runner, but an avid runner I am not.
   It's day 7 and I'm at 12 miles. I skipped a day due to a hangover but I'm back on track and will now be jumping up from two mile runs to 4 miles to completely shatter that 30 mile goal.
   I already ran with Jackson this am on the 2 mile route so i'm leaving him at home this time 'round. His paws don't seem to be holding up on the cement as well as he wishes.
   4 miles (which makes 6 for the day) here I come and without music mind you. Ipod's dead :/
