Hello

Hello. It's been a long time since I posted and I am not going to apologize. I am tired of putting others in front of me. I really do. It's been like that for the last fifteen or sixteen years. I have put off writing entries in this blog because I realized I wasn't writing for me but for you and need to be more selfish. I needed a break but now realized it was therapeutic writing what I felt.

I, finally, graduated college. I just applied to some grad schools, hopefully, it'll workout. I have applied to some jobs but it's hard to get interviews. I keep on plugging away but sometime in my gut I just want to give up. There's a person who pulls me back up when I am down. I trust this person more than anyone else and wouldn't trade them for anything.

There's a fact that I read it states: "During a relationship you lose two friends". I felt like when my friends got into their relationship that I was one of the friends. But the one's that hurt was my roommate, Kash, and my cousin, Naveen. Naveen got married in March of 2010, I knew this was going to happen, but he said it wouldn't. He stopped calling or attempting to talk to me for a few months. I left messages and rarely got responses. He called when it was convenient for him. He still does it, I honestly don't know if it's on purpose or not. Kash got married in October of 2011. In the beginning of his relationship (2005), he would abandon all of our plans for her. I understood that at the time but it progressively got worse as time went on. He wondered what he did wrong when I confronted him. After we all moved out (2007), he barely talked to me , although I called and left texts. Finally we started to get back in touch in 2009 and has been great since.

My mom has been sick off and on for the past decade and a half. I have been taking care of the family since. I really want to live life. I felt like I did my fair share and move on. I want to get a job, get married, and start a family. I feel like if I did that my family won't survive, because the last time I left it almost fell apart. I am getting up there in age haven't experience anything in life. This is the time for me to be selfish. I have goals setup for the next three years of my life. I will accomplish them. I have confidence in myself to get the job done. I don't care what anybody says.

Life is short....

A death of a friend, Kemp, who left us too soon has changed my perspective on life. You just never know which day will be your last. Life is so fragile. Make sure in your life that nobody is taken for granted. Keep in touch with loved ones at any cost. Don't have any regrets on how you live your life. A person could be loving, caring, loyal and can do everything right in life; still can be taken away in a single moment. One mistake by a single person can change so many lives. He was murdered by a coward. He cornered him, and shot him at point-blank range. And for what? Because he couldn't control his own life and didn't blame himself for his problems but he blamed someone else who didn't do anything wrong. He killed him, ran, got caught and killed himself. He killed the wrong person, who he thought was having an affair with is wife. It was a classic case of wrong place, wrong time. Kemp was a good person, he always had his friend's back. He was a big guy, who I thought was invincible, but I was wrong. It hurts to see his family mourn his loss at a young age. So much potential is gone just like that. Life is short, you never know when the end is coming. It could be today or fifty years from now. So, do everything that you ever wanted whenever you can. Kemp, you will be missed, and I know you'll be looking down on us. We'll do everything in our power to make you proud.

Religion vs Spirituality

I know have written about this topic but I saw this question posed on TV a month ago, and I had to ask myself the same question. Am I religious or spiritual? I also saw comments on both sides of the debate and was surprised on how many people went with spirituality.

My view on anything is that I want to learn it at my own pace or a pace that I can follow. Religion to me is the same. I hated going to "Sunday School" because I was forced to, not on my own. I hated it at that time and still did. My parents really didn't set the greatest example. My mom couldn't answer any of the questions I asked and my dad seemed not interested. I decided to look else where, other religions, that's when I figured out that they are all the same. They have "stories" that pit good versus evil, teach morals, and the usual. It's just a different road to reach the same destination. I hate how the religion card is used to control a situation or justifying a decision or if you don't follow my religion that "you are an idiot".

I like spirituality because there are no rules. You can believe in whatever you want. Spirituality to me is an a-la-carte; you can take a bit of every religion and make it your own. It's like you believe in a higher being but not necessarily "god" or if you like to meditate to clear your mind and not worry about religious consequences. Or what I believe in, karma. What goes around comes around except in my situation I have built up a lot of good karma, just waiting for it.

That's it for me. Hopefully will post soon.

Reflection....

Hi. I have been posting quite often because I have free time now but can't say the same later. I have already stated how busy I was during the first half of the year but I hope that it calms down for the rest of the year.

It's been a year since my mom was sick and in the hospital. All the stress and travel took a toll on everybody. It sucked, with the balancing between home and the apartment, school and work. It was huge bump in the road and we (my family) survived. Just looking back, I am glad she got the help that was needed and almost made full recovery. Looking back over the last year, I have grown as person; understanding that bleep happens and move on. Things are starting to fall into place and I'm much more calm than I was, but I still have anger issues that I need to work on. Another thing that I have noticed about myself is that I am not into sports as much as I used to. I mean, I still follow it but don't watch the games as much I used to. I have realized there are many other things to be worried about than that.

Just A couple more tidbits. Miley Cyrus is an attention whore, the stunts she's willing to pull off proves it. Heidi and Spencer from "the hills" are separated. Who didn't see this coming? Spencer wants to help the world and Heidi wants to be famous at any cost. Honestly, I think Spencer realized who she was and left her. I also believe Spencer wants to change the world without attention and Heidi needs attention thus the separation. I hope Spencer does help selflessly and Heidi's fame goes down in flames.

That's it for now. Bye.

Oil catastrophe....

I told you that I will be posting soon. So here I am, got topics in hand. Let's go.

This year has been very busy, including a lot of travel. Of course, you know my trips to India and Seattle. But there has been the trips where I went to see my cousin and the constant trips back and forth from home to my parents' place. On top of that, I am trying to keep in shape. I don't think I have been this skinny since maybe high school (talking about body fat%). The clothes I bought recently have become loose.

This oil disaster seems like it'll never end. It's been over a month and oil is still flowing into the gulf. I heard a story on the radio that this has happened before in 1979; somewhere in southwest part of the gulf except the well was only 160 odd feet down. The techniques that BP used were the same as the ones that was tried at that oil spill. Guess what? It didn't work for that oil spill either and that was at 160-170 ft deep. This is at a mile down, so, obviously, the experts knew that it was a long shot. The only was to stop it is to build two rigs to take pressure of the main one and that will take time. That's what they did for the 1979 one. Surprisingly, The gulf recovered in a short time, I hope that's the case here as well.

Should I boycott BP because of this mess? I say no and here's why. I think that BP took advantage of what it was given. They bent and broke rules but were allowed to by the government. I am not saying that BP is without blame, but am saying that it's not all their fault. . Should they pay for the clean up? Of course they should. They make billions in profit each quarter, so they should be able to pay for his. At the end of the day, would I use BP to purchase gas? This situation won't affect my decision either way. The reason I don't use BP or their companies is because they are expensive.

That's it for now. Bye.

Been busy...

Sorry, about the lack of posts this year. It's been a very busy year, with traveling and weddings. I am completely exhausted but the travels have given me many things to talk about. So I will be posting a bit more often.

My family (including my cousin and his wife) and I went to visit the beautiful northwest. I Had never been there, so, now I can add two more states to the list: Washington and Oregon. Our flight going to Seattle was delayed 90 minutes due to weather, but my cousin's flight was canceled. We got in to Seattle late, they got in late the next day. Since my cousin wasn't there we didn't do much, we saw some falls and went shopping for food. The first day we were all together we went on a tour of downtown Seattle. We saw the Space needle(outside), EMP, Pikes market, the first Starbucks, Fremont Troll, "Sleepless in Seattle" boat and the stadiums. The second day, we tried to visit Mt. St. Helen's but the weather was bad so we only got half way up. Later, we went to Portland to see the rose gardens and went back to the hotel. The last day we went back downtown but went up the Space Needle, went to Pikes market and spent much more time than the tour allowed us but couldn't go to the beach due to weather. The weather was crappy throughout except the day we went back.

Okay, that's it for now. Will try to post again soon.

Sick and tired....

Hey, How's it going?
Before I get started, I would like to congratulate my cousin on his adjustment to married life, lol. Anyways, let's go to the serious stuff.

The oil spill that is happening in the Gulf of Mexico is heart-breaking. Not only did people lose their lives but it's affecting the environment as well. It might take months to shut off the spewing of oil into the gulf. I don't know if this could have been avoided but it's sad to see. After all this, Obama is still considering off-shore drilling. Although accidents like this rarely happens, does anybody want to take that risk? I wish the alternative fuels would be the focus instead of oil. At the end of the day, hopefully, this will be solved soon.

The Arizona Immigration law is another controversial topic. I don't see the big deal about this. Okay, it's about civil rights and racial-profiling. If the the federal government is doing nothing about it what should the state do? It's taking the matter in it's own hands. All the law is doing is giving the state police the same authority as a federal cops. Federal law is now being enforced as a state law, that's pretty much it. People shouldn't be mad at Arizona but at the federal law.

I am sick of publications and infomercials misleading the public on weight-loss. I don't mind P90X because it's a good starter for the first three months or "insanity" that's another good starter. After awhile, you'll hit a plateau and need actual weights to maintain strength. What really pisses me off is the magazines that say "I lost 7lbs in 7 days". Just because a celebrity supposedly did that, that means you can do it too. They have more resources than most people. I saw an infomercial about "shake weight" and it was funny. Seriously, doing that six minutes a day will build muscle and replace workouts? Are you kidding? It's also funny to look at, if you don't know what I mean just check youtube. Another thing that makes me mad is all these cleansing diets. What do you think your body does? Especially, your liver and kidneys, it cleanses, so I think it's pointless. Besides, do you know why you are losing weight? It's because you are drinking the lemon-pepper drink and not eating anything else. All in all, there is no shortcut other than diet and exercise. 1lb to 2lbs per week is good progress.

That's it for today. Will be posting soon.Peace.

Life as we know it....

Hey. It's been a while since I posted anything. There are so many topics so let me delve into it right away.

For awhile I was into politics but that was just a phase. I got so sick and tired of it so quickly. There are two sides to each argument but no compromise on anything. Just plain arguing with no end where each side is wrong. Then there is the Tea Party activists. Their arguments make no sense at all and what worse is that Sarah Palin is their main leader. Jeez, when did she get any credibility?

Weather has been weird lately, It was so warm for a long time I forgot it was April. I loved the weather where it was sunny and didn't have to wear a coat but now it's cold. It had to even out some time. Now's it's warm again. It has been so calm compared to recent years, finally.

Sometimes things just don't work out even you try your hardest. Life is like that for me. I can't find any job even though I am trying. I still haven't graduated due to circumstances beyond my control. Yet,I keep fighting on. Hopefully, one day, I will catch a break. There is hope out there. My mom and I are having arguments because it's frustrating talking to her, sometimes. She doesn't understand my, my dad, or sis's situation. At this time, I don't need people telling me the same thing over and over again.

Now for some better news. I have gotten to my goal weight and now am looking to lose some fat. My cardio has gotten progressively better since the beginning of the year, even though I lost time when I went to India. I just ran a 5k for the first time. It was exhausting but I did it. Now let's see if I can improve the time. My weight lifting has also improved, where I can bench up to 115 lbs. Start of this year I was benching 100 lbs.

Post will be coming sometime soon.

long time.....

It's been awhile so let's get to it. This is what I have been up to.
I have been working out hard lately and am seeing results. It's not where I want to be but it's getting there. My cardio has vastly improved from 3 months ago. But that's nt I wanted to talk about.
My chaotic 6 weeks started like this. First, I had to do something that I didn't want to do but am glad I did. I won't specify but it helped get a better understanding of myself. After that, I went to cousin's place in KC to visit, you know hang out and stuff. It was fun for the few days then it got hectic. Before the hectic stuff started we went out bowling, saw a few movies, and played games just like old times (I also worked on 1000 piece puzzle by myself). Then he got a job interview in GR, which I went with him. I showed him around and met a couple of my friends there, it was great. And I thought that was exhausting but it was a preview of things to come. As soon as we got back, he found that he's getting married in India in two weeks. So, as a family we wanted to see the wedding and we did. With my mom's condition it wasn't going to be easy but everything worked out. It was all chaotic from there on out. The wedding was only a few days away and we needed clothes, shoes, and everything else that's needed. On top of that we were jet-lagged and tired but had to move on or we would be left behind. Of course Indian weddings had a bunch of formalities to complete. It took, what it felt like, was forever. I slept through one part of the ceremony. Eh, they got pics. After the wedding was done, we (dad, sis, and me) went to Mysore to go see the palace, gardens and Buddhist monastery. It was nice and relaxing. I saw the IPL there (a Cricket tournament that pretty much takes over the country) and it was awesome. We all got back home to see snow on the ground. It was pretty much in the 90's and sunny everyday there. It was tiring but a part of my life I will never forget.

Another post will coming soon. Peace.

New year resolution

Hey. Long time, no post; so let's get into the topic, "New year's resolutions".

Why do people make them? I know it's a goal that they want to attain during the year, but most resolutions don't make it through the first month. Weight loss is the most common resolution. For this goal to be accomplished, people start joining gyms and trying diets. After awhile they give up and go back to the status quo. Why does this happen? It's because they have unrealistic view on how much weight should be lost. I see this personally, where after new year's the gym is packed but by the time February hits the crowd has thinned out. Part of the unrealistic view is caused by "The Biggest Loser". I will talk about that another time.
Another thing that bothers me, is that why do people wait 'til new year's to make a change in themselves? Why can't it be done in the middle of the year? The faster or earlier that you work on that goal, it'll be done sooner. I know that some things can't be done now, like paint the house or gardening but come on, why wait? Start saving money before new year's and you'll have more money when you begin the year. It makes more sense, but ,hey, what do I know?

Anyways, that's my rant for now. Hopefully, be back soon with a new post.

Education....

Long time, no blog. Let's dive in. Two main things in this country that need to be fixed are health care and education. The main problem with the education system is that they are rewarding mediocrity. What the hell? As I read in another blog, our education sucks because of this. C's in school should be failing, not F. We are telling kids that average is okay but it is not. How many countries are passing us? I feel like we are doing nothing. This country have tons of smart people and potentially lots more. We'll never see it because of this mindset. There should only be ribbons and prizes for the top 10% or top 3 of anything and the rest can go home crying or something. No prizes or certificates for 10th place out of 10 people for participating. Stop sugar-coating stuff. Tell it how it is. Another problem is truancy. After a while just move on, if the parents don't do their job and kids don't want to go school; don't force them. If people want to be educated, they'll find a way. Let people who want to better themselves educationally do so. the mindset we have as of this moment is horrible. Actually, you can see this in other aspects such as sports and government bail outs. This needs to change, I don't know how but it does. Once this is fixed,then you'll see a better, smarter country.

Yappy New y'ear'....

Hey. It's been awhile so let's jump in.
2009 is about over and thank god. This year had to be one of worse ever for me. Everything from school, my mom's health, and all other stuff it was too much. There was pretty much nothing that went well this year. Although, I did see New York for the first time. I am looking forward to the upcoming year, hopefully this will go better than the last one. My goals this year will be somehow getting my degree by any means necessary. Get a decent paying job. Keep on getting buff. Learn more things about everything.

2009 saw a lot of things. The main news was the celebrity deaths. There were so many well known people who died, the big one was Michael Jackson. There are so many others, it'll take a lot of time. President Obama did a decent job with the cards he was dealt with, but expected much more from him. The heated health care debate was also big this year, peaking during the summer time. I already have told what I felt about this topic. Scandals were another big thing this year, especially, Tiger Woods. American Idol crowned another winner who you won't hear much from. Reality tv getting more ridiculous.

Anyways, let's see if people learn from their mistakes and move on. A fresh start to a new year, wait, this will be the best yet.

government...

...Not like those free-loading banks...what?..our government sucks. It just does. It's all about efficiency and saving money; at the same time helping fellow citizens. That's not the case. I have never seen any one or thing waste so much money, using it for useless things. Yet, they always find new things to tax us on. The war on Iraq should have never happened. There's billions of dollars that could be used on helping the homeless or the middle class. We are there for one thing...you know what it is. The government is run by large corporations and banks. It's so freaking obvious...just look at who got bailouts and who didn't. Of course they (the government) will save their ass and not give it to the people who need it. I think the reasoning behind the bailout is just a bunch of bull. They should have let them collapse. It just sets a bad precedent. What did they learn from this? Will they make the same mistakes? Only time will tell. The health care bill sucks because they took out so much what I wanted and compromised. Bastards. It's better than nothing but still not good enough. Enough with this. If I hear an argument that there is a separation between Church and State, I will be pissed off beyond anything.
It's not all bad. WE are spoiled here. Look what we get that others but someone will still complain. There always work to be done. Until things get better or whenever we will have a leader who'll tell the corporations to suck it; this will be the status quo.

Until next time, peace.

Sickening...part three

Hey. I'll continue my random topics rant in just a moment. Our first winter storm is on its way. Winter has officially arrived, I just hope it isn't as bad as last year.

Do you know what I am sick of? The stupidest movie/book overhype in history:Twilight. The story about vampires ooooh. Jeez, shut up already. If you aren't familiar with story, where have you been? But, if you need a short version...google "cracked twilight". I tried to put the link but it didn't work. The whole series is there. Anyways, if I hear Team Edward or team Jacob I will go nuts. Any right-minded person will think that these books are insane. Check it out for yourself, I am not kidding.

What has happened to Television? I swear there were better shows 10 years ago than there are now. Is it me or are there way too many medical shows? Anyways, I only watch seven scripted shows: HIMYM (how i met your mother), BBT (Big Bang Theory), White Collar, The Mentalist, Chuck and Burn Notice. White Collar is going on hiatus, while Chuck and Burn Notice are on hiatus. It's just hard to find good shows. The quality is sooooo bad. The combination of writing, directing and acting are nowadays a rare breed. Law and Order, CSI,Lost, and at one time Heroes all used to be good and now they suck. Those shows are past their primes but is still being aired. Ugh.

It's not like Reality tv is any better. The two shows I watch is The Biggest Loser and The Amazing Race. I only watch The Biggest Loser for the contestants and how the change their lives. I mean most of the reality shows are crap because they are rigged. Since when did American Idol got it right? I will talk about that in another post. It's all about ratings and money. Even so, many of those should never be made in the first place. I don't even know who watches the crap they put on MTV or VH1. Who's idea was it to put douches on tv and make them famous (Heidi and Spencer)? What do you call "The Hills"? Reality or scripted? It doesn't matter, the show sucks.

Out here road construction sucks. It feels like it's year round and it takes forever to fix one thing. When they say it'll be done in 2009, it means December 31, 2009. The only time when construction isn't being done, it's freaking cold outside. So, when you are driving the windows are always up. On top of that, it is usually done over-budget and late, wasting our taxpayers money. Jeez.

That's it for now. Tata.

sickening part two

This is part two of sickening. Please read the part one.

Let me continue. The party crashers at Obama's White House party are getting way too much attention. Okay, they got in and really thought they were invited. Maybe it was a mistake but enough of that. They got their 15 minutes and now buh-bye. Obama's presidency is going all right but not without controversy. The obvious war, health care,and other stuff. He has been put on such a high pedestal what did you think would happen? There is no way everything can fixed within a year. It's not possible. I won't judge his presidency until the third year and then we'll see what has done.

Afghanistan and Iraq was a mistake made by the Bush administration and yet Obama gets the blame somehow. Why are we sending more troops to Afghanistan? I think it is going worse than they are letting on or something else completely. There should only be a deadline of troops coming back if only: they give up or they win. That's it.

Health care is this country sucks only if you get sick, otherwise it's not that bad. I hear the arguments that people all over the world get treatments in the country. Umm, I think they are rich and the middle-class Americans are the one struggling. The health care bill that's out there would barely put a dent into this problem. Way too many concessions. I would rather start from scratch and find something that everyone agrees with. I am tired of the argument of it will kill private insurance. Are you insane? How about privatizing everything? Our mail, garbage, roads, and other stuff be privatized. Public and private companies can coexist, there's proof right now. Think people. Think.

A quick comment on Tiger Woods. We find out he is not a perfect person but who is. He cheated on is wife. Again, I feel bad for his kids. Isn't it always the kids get pulled into this? He somewhat apologized for his actions and I am disappointed in that. Be a man, admit to your mistakes and everyone else will move on.Hopefully, he'll get things straightened out with his family behind closed doors.

Actually, I have more to say but that will be in part three.

sickening......

There are so many things that annoy me, irritate me, well, sicken me.

Let's start off with infomercials. Those get-rich-quick schemes, exercises, diets, and other products. If they all had worked, why put them on late at night or have specific channel for their product? You see all those exercise infomercials but do you see anyone out of shape? Most of those programs requires time and dedication which many people have a problem with because they are out of shape. What make me even more angry are those diet pills or diet "miracles". It just sends a bad message: "here's a pill that will undo all the damage that has been done over the years". There is no such thing, exercise and diet will do the trick. It takes time to put on the weight, so it'll take time to take it off.

I don't like random people telling me what to do. For instance, PETA telling it's wrong to treat animal unethically. Duh, I know it's wrong but you don't have to remind me every single time. Pouring paint on fur is going a little bit overboard, isn't it? Some people don't change no matter what you do, so move on. I hate that church in Kansas that keeps on saying "the bible says that homosexuals is a sin". Please....give me a break. There are a lot of things that are said in the bible, and if any of these were true believers that wouldn't say stuff like that. I don't like Bob Harper telling that Extra gum will help my cravings or tell me to get off the couch and exercise. I get the point but jeez.

The holiday season is upon us and it starts with the holiday crap. I understand good will and everything but is it the only time of need? People need help 365 days a year not just one month. Christmas has lost all meaning to me, it's not what it used to be. I saw on the news that some guy stole the salvation army bucket by beating up the guy who rang the bell. They caught the guy but the money is gone. Why did he do this? Because he hates Christmas. What the hell did the guy do to you? I know the bell ringing is annoying but please.

Tiger Woods gets into an accident. You know the rest of the story. The media over blows everything out of proportion. Leave it alone, even ESPN is running TMZ stuff.
Respect his wishes and move on.

I could keep going on but I'll save that for my next post.

"Yappy birthday"

Hey, it's been awhile since I wrote one. I had recently celebrated my birthday. I, personally, don't like celebrating my birthday cuz after you turn 21 it's downhill. As you know, I don't like gifts either but I do like money. I am a year older but am I wiser? Yes, I think so. There are so many twists and turns throughout life if you worry or get upset at everything, you'll go nuts. I have realized not to do that. I mean do you what you can do but don't worry about the stuff you can't control. Although, I hate still being blamed for s**t I didn't do.

TV sucks now-a-days. I mean the news feels like a rerun everyday. Someone decides to write a book and promote like crazy. Something happened where people are pissed or, unfortunately, died. The weather is nice or it sucks. Reality tv still rules and good scripted tv shows are hard to come by. You know how much I hate reality shows. Even sports are being redundant. That's what happens when you get older, I guess.
To pass the time, I try to workout, play some video games, run some errands, fix stuff and learn new stuff. When I was working out, I realized that television is evil, look what it's doing to this country. It's making people dumber and fatter.

Anyways, at this pace, I might go on forever, so I am going to stop here. Bye.

geez......

Hey. Is it jeez or geez? What is jeez or geez short for? Jesus? I have no idea.

I was listening to the radio and found out something had happened at Fort Hood. I heard about the tragedy. People were shocked something like could happen but I wasn't. It was only a matter of time before someone snapped. I am surprised that this guy didn't want to be there and nothing was done to accommodate him. Of course this is all rumor, but if it's true this is unbelievably sad. Now the Arab community is concerned of a backlash because of this guy. I hope, Americans, can see that this is the exception not the rule and learned from 9/11.

Watching the news over the weekend, a report on CNN got my attention. They were interviewing Muslim extremists (who look Caucasian and have no accent) , who are promoting ideas on the streets of NYC. They say that all Americans should die for their actions and people who are non-Muslims should also pay the price of death as well. Umm...you are in America. How is this gonna help you, telling people that they should kill themselves? Are you crazy? It's just scary that people are in this country thinks like this. Jeez, we are fighting terrorists overseas but there are lots of them here as well. If this was a different country they will get slapped but here it's okay to say stuff like that because of the first amendment. Don't you love America?

I could keep on going but I won't. Anyways, buh-bye.
