The Scariest Night of My Life Was in My Car

OMG I'm not that much of a worry wart but last May  I was driving home from a night out on the town when I heard "boom!" My front passenger tire had blown out on the freeway. I nearly lost control of the car! I swerved to the right and I pulled to the left but then the car pulled to the right. I just went into auto pilot but I managed to get over to the shoulder of the freeway. I called AAA and they told me I'd have to wait an hour and a half! What?! I hate to admit I was slightly tipsy also. I decided to try to change the tire myself. I opened up my trunk and found the donut tire I got my flashlight and tire ready to go. I got the lug wrench that came with the car to unscrew the nuts of the blown out tire but much to my chagrin it didn't fit!  I was stuck and it was cold! I didn't have any other clothing in my car and I was wearing shorts. So I covered myself with some text books I had in the back seat. I was still shivering though.  What's worse is m...

The Day a Pen Saved My Life

Imagen
February 18th 2015 I was walking home from a night of clubbing with some friends. That’s when I saw two gangster looking latino guys on the street talking. They looked a little suspicious but I told myself ‘don’t be racist’ and ignored them and kept on walking past them. Then I hear ‘what’s up homie?’ and they begin to walk up towards me. I try to be cool and just said ‘what’s up’? Then one of them says: “That watch is pretty coo how about you let me have it?” My heart begins pounding. I didn’t know what I had done in this world to deserve this. I just told them “Yeah no I don’t think so guy” Then one of them said ‘I guess we jus gone have to take it then”. My heart skipped a beat. I just looked and them and whaled ‘why are you doing this to me?!” to which they responded “shouda just given it up faggot” I don’t know what the heck came over me but I just starting thinking of Matthew Shepherd in my head and had a flash on him laying on that fence in Wyoming and I re...

I Beat Meth it Didn't Beat ME!

Imagen
If you've read my other posts you know I went through some financial and relational hardships. What I didn't say, because I wasn't ready, was as I was going through my ordeal I began using meth. It was never my intention to be a druggie. It just happened. I was so depressed and lonely. No money, no boyfriend, a shitty job. A person who I thought was my friend suggested I try it. It was the most amazing feeling in the world! It was like someone pulled me out of the dark side and into the light! I began using more and more until finally my teeth began falling out. Yup that's right I had meth mouth. If you've ever seen meth mouth it's like the most disgusting thing out there! This is gonna sound really shallow but it was my appearance getting worse that motivated me to work to get clean. When my mouth began to look like that that's when I knew it was time to do something. I tried DAA (drug addicts anonymous) and it helped a little but I'd always...

Reasons to Use a Tour Package for Your Next Holiday!

I’m an experienced traveler so I never  imaged  myself booking a package tour! However last year I was extremely tired and stressed from my work and I wanted to take a vacay but I didn’t want to sit there and do all the planning it takes to do a trip by yourself.  I didn’t feel like having to haggle with locals over prices or making contingency plans in case something fell through. So I decided to go to Thailand using a tour package. I went ahead and did and I’m so glad I did! By booking a tour package Everything was pretty much taken care for   me. A big advantage of tour package is a comfortable tour.  If something went wrong it wasn’t my problem. It frees you from having to plan your own itinerary. Planning a trip can be fun but is also surprisingly time-consuming and sometimes stressful, even for people who are mostly winging it rather than planning things to the second ("Ugh, is every damned guesthouse in the whole city booked solid on Wed...

How I Finally Got a Boyfriend

Imagen
If you've been following my blog you know about what kind of stress student loan debt put me under with the people always calling me and my family. Luckily I was able to  get out of it ! After I got out of it I was still un gainfully employed, fat, and single. My boyfriend had left me for a rich sugar daddy.  I had gained over 40lbs due to the stress of my ordeal. Most guys wouldn't even talk to me and the ones that did were...ick!  I did what most gay guys that have problems do. Try to solve them by moving to another city to get away from all the 'toxic energy'.  A friend was living in St. Paul and said I could crash with him.  Like every other queer that tries this discovers I soon found out that moving wouldn't magically solve all of my problems.  Fortunately the  LGBT Center here offered free counseling. I got an appointment and saw John. He was very nice but a little blunt. He listened and I told him how I kept getting rejected...

I Went From a 50k Inheritance to Over 45k in Debt

Imagen
My name is Nester  and if you're looking for an alternative to bankruptcy so you can avoid the embarrassment and feeling of failure then hear me out because what I'm about to share might shock you... Before I do, let me tell you something a lot of people don't know about me. I inherited $50,000 from grandmother and 3 years later I'm in $450,00 in debt.  I'd racked up a bunch of debt and the more I got in debt, the easier it was to get further into debt.. I was in so much debt that my debts well over exceeded my earnings. Crazy I know right? You see, I secretly knew what I was getting into but all the credit banks and lenders practically threw at me was too good to pass up. Soon enough I was $45,128 in debt and I virtually had just a certificate in Paralegal studies to show for it. I had gotten a decent job at a bankruptcy attorney's office and things seemed to be going okay... Then, on a Friday afternoon 2 days before my 33rd birthday I was called in...
