"Come As You Are" - Nirvana

On March 12th, 1992... sometime around 7PM, I, Stephen Vaux, was born. I was in my peak physical condition at 8 pounds, and came out pissing on all the doctors who helped bring me to a more permanent life. I'd like to think of this as my first act of social disobedience: A group of people paid to take a fetus and bring it into reality, and I take that sense of pride and douse them with pee. This also gave me one other thing, aside from life, that i often take for granted: The one picture of my birth-parents smiling in the same picture together. Granted, my mother was on a LOT of drugs, and my father was a newly endowed parent, but still, to see them smile together was something that didn't, and doesn't, happen often.


As I said, I was at the peak physical condition at the age of around one. From there, it just went terribly down hill. I maintained an alright weight until age six, when things between my mother and father (never married, now married to other people) lead to things unsatisfactory to me or my health. My hair has changed a bit. In the beginning of my life, I had more of a jew-fro than anything, but in the later years of my life, i've had a natural pompadour. This doesn't bother me at all, except for the hard time i have maintaining it.

That's been a slight recap of my humble beginnings. For some reason, if you think this is going to be the underdog-story of the century, you're about to be sadly mistaken. From here on out, this story is going to get much worse, almost unbearable. It's up to you to continue reading, you've been warned.

See ya' next time~

"This Is A Call" - Foo Fighters

Hello, and welcome to my blog.

I'm sure this idea has been run to bits by now, but instead of posting things with a simple title in the beginning, instead i'm going to take song names and build a topic from there. Sometimes I may already have a topic, and instead use the song name to introduce what i'll be discussing.

Introductions aside, allow me to introduce myself, i'm Stephen. Blogging is a fairly new concept for me, but i've never had a hard time talking to a group of people, or letting my words be heard. Even though this blog won't be read by anyone, it seems nice that anybody can post something meaningful to themselves in hopes that someday, somehow, someone else out there in the world will read it, and perhaps share the meaning the writer had intended to convey.

The title i chose for this blog, "This Is A Call", seems fitting enough. In a way, this IS a call. This is a call to all of those who are interested in following the events or thoughts in my life. This is a call to anyone who needs a break and decides to search for blog posts. This is a call to all my past resignations, future associations and simply, this is a call to all.

I hope that my future blogs will entertain the wide crowd of zero that i expect to read this, and that i can keep the masses entertained as long as possible. If not, you have the right to overthrow me and put a better Steve in charge of my blog.

Thank you,
