My thoughts, My NY pics, and My new background

Spider RYAN!

So I made a new blog back ground as you can see. I made everything from scratch in photoshop, and here is how. I used brushes and textures for the clouds sun, and sand, and used my tablet (it a little drawing table that you connect to a USB port and you can draw right onto the computer) to draw the water and most of the soccer ball. I'm worried I made the ball look too 'real'. Thoughts? most likely this will be my back ground until the end of summer or until I leave on my mission. You know, which ever comes first.

Personal message of the week, and the one I am using for my facebook status right now. These are original thoughts so again, thoughts? :)

Make believe, remember your manners, and don't forget who you really are, a nobody with people who care about you. ~Me

So this is mostly on my mind lately because it seems like the people around me have been talking about this topic lately. It seems that every one is in such a rush to grow up, smother other people with their narcissistic self image and superiority complex, and convince them selves that they are some kind of superior being to some one else because of their status in life. I say make believe because we live in a world where growing up turns into sin, and corruption, and greed. People think growing up is all about money or who your dating and it destroys them. Little kids are so innocent because what they care about is how they can kill the robots in the sewers with their ninja turtle brothers. My nephew Gabe just wants to be like His daddy, and my niece Lily is the cutest little princess ever. I mean how many people that are in their teens, twenties, thirties etc, can get simple amusement by putting a hamper on their head? My nephew sawyer can. Little kids get it, life does not have to be serious ALL the time, but when it does, remember your manners. When we were in New York, we rode our Razor scooters every where to save on cab fare. To say the least, New Yorkers, did not like our Razor scooters. We were in Central Park for some epic scooting and some lady walked by and said to her husband "They'd be more masculine if they weren't on scooters." What the heck lady? Did I suddenly become a women because I'm riding something that went out of style? Die. And lastly, remember who you really are, with out friends and family, your no one. With out friends and family, who is going to call me Ryan? Who is going to be there to congratulate me when I something right, or help me up when I do something wrong? No one. People some times think that if they are attractive, rich, famous, or popular they are better than other people. But I think every one needs to remember that what made them all those things, is the people in their lives who are just as good, and have just as much potential as they do. Well, that's all from me, I'm done rambling after all I am a young naive 19 year old but that's how I see things. Love you all.

Oh and believe it or not i didn't have a camera in New York so I have zero pics :(

  1. I agree, you're the one that should have had a camera. And I'm not going to write much, I think you said enough. Keep thinking that attitude I'd like to have it around all of us when we chill. Great example. Love ya kid.
