Me:

I'm not Handicapped, I'm Handicapable.

(and no i didnt get that from due date lol)

I left home and drove from nj to california in search of an independent life and safe access to my medicine* so i can live. It's been an interesting journey, lots of ups, lots of downs, and even though I am now weaker than ever...nothing will ever stop me from living my dream, regardless of how long I get to live.

Life is too precious and short to waste time. And I'm Ready.

The three videos below are before and after i left nj, an interview with the Washington Post during my road trip, some audition, and one other one hahaha idk i didnt set up the web site, im kinda lost there :P below that are blog entries! thank you!

my world record skydive

i view life like, its now now or never. safety is never a concern ;)

I'm living where I want to, just wish I felt better. Lots of things to consider as a future. No energy tho. Thank goodness for good friends. Few and far between. Life is good. But often lonely.

Happy new year
Love

10:48pm 2-25-08 ---I wrote this in nj long ago

why is everyone so afraid to live? im so tired of everyone going nowhere so slow. people are sheep, doing nothing but what they are told to do. following, following, following. Who is the shepherd? who is guiding this flock of geese into the fastest most self indulgent grave this earth will ever hold. whats worse, that we are born into this, or that we feed into it. allowing it to happen. and we do. so is it that.. or is is the fact that we love it, or the "masses" love it should i say. but were so fucked on a 'species' level. no other animal on earth could find a better way to knock out its chances for long term survival. we keep thinking we got smarter, why because the average age for someone to die was a lot lower back then? are you worried you might die young? hahaha you should be!! that may be the only way anyone has a chance for a life. a chance to stop and rethink every second of thier lives. if there were only 60, who would you want to call? why? what would you say. and if that moment could last longer than 60 seconds how would that effect your life. and i know, that there is more than one person we all have something we might wanna say or do something to. but we dont because of whatever bullshit reason we can come up with stop us. we'll do it later. how many times did a later never happen? and it can be a little later too. not even something important. we tend to brush off our own lives like its normal. why should anyone forget about a dream they have, why should anyone not tell the person they love I LOVE YOU!? wouldnt you want the person to tell you? damn right you would. but we dont. silly sheep. every other animal on earth fears for thier lives. thus focusus on whats important. which is usually survival and family. its a formula that makes sense!! we are an arrogant animal, we have designed a flawed fucked up system of safety and security which bleeds our souls and blinds us with a false sense of reality. We need to remember what we are. and remember whats important. and if we cant figure out whats important we at least need to realize what isn't important, and stop wasting our time.

Mike Oliveri and happiness

The most common question I get asked, is "mikey, how are you so happy all the time!?" to which I usually laugh and say, "because I chose to be" "want to be" and "I go after everything I believe in and never give up" "and I love myself" (most important), i feel i deserve a happy good life because i love myself.. So then I ask now why the hell are you UNhappy all the time? The answer. Choice. Every single time. And that is my biggest question for everyone.. "why aren't you happy, you are alive you know..." c'est la vie!!!! Free will can be a bitch or a savior!!!! Life is funny :P happiness depends on one person.... Yourself.

How the hell did I get here

I came here 3 years ago for weather and weed and a new life. Away from my family, to start maybe my own. I live hard, with help, but still manageable and hard, and I make it. All by myself, free from micro managing parents and people's idiotic opinions regarding my life.... Sorry but unless you are me, be quiet. My thoughts, dreams, and ideals are most definitely not the same as yours. How could they be? We are all individuals. Free spirits, but oh wait, mike... U need help, ur disabled, you NEED US................ Now Wait wait wait..... I DID THIS. On my own 3 years ago. And as much as I don't like where I am now, I need a revolution like 3 years ago, I have no money, little help, and need to survive. I need to make this happen now. I cannot let my parents irrational thinking disrupt my life so much. Gotta turn mikeywheels back on. Get em spinning. Burning rubber.

My Parents

I dream, they don't.

Start again

I may be crazy, but I live, to live. My parents don't understand me fully. I have no money and it's a result of trust and emotion of them due to my situation "thinking they know what I need" it's unfortunate. Gotta make money somehow..
