| | It is about time.... | | | Wednesday, January 14, 2009 (5:22 AM)
(I'm feeling optimistic) | | I think it is time about we do what should have been done years ago. Let’s start shedding these titles black, white, Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Communist or whatever affiliation. It sees in the mist of the title wearing we forgot the most important one, people. We have a rare opportunity to do something even more extraordinary than what we have done so far in this country. We a have the unique opportunity and honor to truly be the beacon of light and change that we claim to be not only here but abroad. I think it is about time we as nation truly come under one banner and unfortunately for some under the same President. He is not just my president because he’s black. He is the President. A representation of the American people’s living beliefs and values for the world to see; the faster we realize this the better we will be. I understand there was 44.4% of Americans who thought John McCain was the better man for the job. But if you have been watching the news lately, I am here to tell you 52% of Americans said otherwise. We have pretty much two options. Support this new President with your votes or prayers because he will need both to get this country out of this debacle. The latter of the two is to wait till NATO is bailing us out and declares us 3rd world country. My fellow Americans I think that the choice is simple but I have been wrong before.
This was originally gonna be a lot longer but I shorten to get the message across but I have some more to add and I will soon. Post a view or a comment if you see anything you like or dislike. Honest is the best policy(yeah I said it!).

| | Gotta love Sterotypes Part Deux... | | | Saturday, January 10, 2009 (8:45 PM)
(I'm feeling satisfied) | | | I got a mp3 player for Christmas and I needed some athletic headphones for it because the stock ones were not cutting it. So I go to the home of union-destroying Wal-mart to purchase the mythical headphones. I was wearing the navy blue hoodie that I always received in on Christmas which is quite comfortable. Stupidly I had the hoodie part up as I walked into the store, I didn’t think that it would make a dramatic difference but I was wrong. I do that often these days. I go straight to the electronics department and buy the headphones that I wanted and promptly pay for them, $10.70. I walk down the aisle of the Supercenter. I am a kid at heart. If I buy something seldom do I wait to I get home to open it especially electronics. So I am walking do the aisle with the package opening and taking the headphones out. I hookup to the Zune and continue strafing out the door thinking of the awesome track I found, Stay with You by John Legend. I walk outside to smell the faint smell of diesel fuel mixed with McDonald’s to see my old Math teacher Mrs. Jones. To say that I was a bad kid in high school is a serious understatement and Mrs. Jones was one of the teachers who always encourage me to be a better person for me. Too bad she sees me get arrested…A officer grabs me at the bottom of my hoodie and slams me against the wall and handcuffs me and takes me to a room. He tells me to call my parents (I guess I still don’t look 20 at 6 foot). I am told him that I am 20 so that is unnecessary and I asked why I was handcuffed. He looked at me and laughed as if I told him a great joke. He said that I would be going to jail for shoplifting. I laugh this time. He looks at puzzled. I stood up and he puts his hand on his gun. I stated that simply that there was an error made on his behalf considering I hadn’t stole anything. I should him the receipt for my purchase and then the ass-kissing began. Gotta love the sterotypes… | | | | 44 Views | 0 Thumbs Up | 0 Comments | |

| | Gotta love H.E.B | | | Thursday, September 25, 2008 (8:05 PM)
(I'm feeling amused) | | I went to H.E.B. at like 10 pm after coming out of the gym to pick up a gallon Gatorade. As I pull up to the parking lot I notice something, all the lights in the parking lot were completely gone. The parking lot was completely dark. This was not good. At all. I was wearing all black-attire. I knew surely that someone will mistake for a mugger. And I sure enough, a Cauasian lady gets out of her and sees me for just a moment and nearly breaks her neck peering over her shoulder. And like a bullet she shoots off to the store trying to find light so can be safe from the threat of Xusor. Gotta love sterotypes!!!

| | My Reply to "Interesting" | | | Friday, September 19, 2008 (5:17 PM)
(I'm feeling determined) | | I think by saying that difference is the one world’s problem is a fair assumption. Saying that diversity emboldens our society is true. Very few nations can boast such a claim. Nowadays it seems more and more apparent that people tenacity and an inability control of their temper have led to altercation between the races, genders, and all other possible groups. Who is to blame? The government? Big business? Nope. I believe we are the architects of our own discord and discomfort. I base this on firsthand experience and nothing else so try to stay opened minded. Anyhoo, take a look at the Presidential Election, here is a prime example. We have the Democrats who have chosen Obama to be their “man” in the White House. Now if you recall a little incident with a particular reverend (he who shall not be named) who ignorant tongue spewed his propaganda and instantly became a movie star; at the cost of the Illinois Senator becoming a “cracker-hater”. Vast majorities of the American people were fast to lump the partially retarded reverend thoughts to that of Obama considering their past, like Obama and himself were conjoined twins who shared the same thoughts. This threatened to annihilate Obama’s presidential dreams because people did the one thing they do in a crisis. Fear. They feared the possibility of a “cracker-hating” President taking office and sentencing Caucasian Americans to concentration camps WWII style. This fear that seems more and more indomitable has now tighten a vice grip around the thoughts of otherwise more sensible people. People fear to fly in aircrafts because people nowadays like parking them into buildings. Parents are afraid to send their kids to school because teachers are starting to enjoy Sex education a bit too much. People are terrified of anyone who looks Middle Eastern because they look like they are related to Atiyah Abd Al Rahman. And you know what? I can’t blame a single person for feeling that way. But fear shouldn’t strip you of your ability to reason, your ability to comprehend and most importantly your ability to hope. They say that hope is another word for optimistic and optimistic is a pretty word for dreamer. If that’s the case they let’s all dream of a place and time where unity and tranquility are separate only in spelling. I believe the dream is soon coming.
I think I will be posting a few more open questions so PLEASE!!!!!! Give your input!!! I would love to see anyone say anything. This blog is based around the readers so if you read please take a second to provide some feedback. | | | | 81 Views | 0 Thumbs Up | 0 Comments | |

| | Interesting... | | | Tuesday, September 9, 2008 (6:29 PM)
(I'm feeling amused) | | I was in Starbucks with a lady friend and we were discussing theories, politics, and other random stuff solely for debating sake. Anyhow, we got on to more radical theories such differences between races and gender what is acceptable and what is not. She made a very convincing point, She said: That people nowadays are more susceptible to quick anger and more sensitive feelings because for known and unknown reasons. It could be their personal choices, their upbringing or they just want be the sword rather than the pen. Diversity with is something that strengthens our society and consequently emboldens us and that might be a bit problematic. People will find beef with difference. It seems almost encoded into or D.N.A. But we can choose to fight it into submission. The problem seems to be the choice.
A compelling argument. I really want to hear what others think about this particular view. Any perceptions or interpretations of any kind do post what you think I would love to see what thoughts are out there. I will add my own rebuttal soon after.

| | Some writings... | | | Saturday, September 6, 2008 (8:47 PM)
(I'm feeling curious) | | I got a few of my writings and my versions of truth. Take a look. Feedback of any type is greatly appreciated. Anything that anyone thinks of let me know.
The New Color
Life has color. An assortment of colors and shades so breathtaking and vivid that they inspire mankind to all that it was destined for. Utilize the colors given to you and through them; create colors more that will illustrate that picture of Life. Don’t squander your canvas nor dirty with colors of greed, lies, sloth or envy. The greatest injustice you can do to yourself and the world is not allowing anyone to see your vision in its grandeur. We are given just one canvas, just one, to paint our masterpiece to show the world our vision, leave our mark, or most importantly inspire the next generation to greater heights. So give Life to your masterpiece.
The Armor
Vulnerability to me, till recently, has always been a weakness. It allows people to do things to your psyche that I detest. In the past vulnerability has been problematic. It seems every time the armor and shields come down the knives of dishonesty come in. For that reason, issues of trust arise constantly testing the patience and resilience of loved ones. I do not blame them. For that is what I was. A very wonderful girl told me the vulnerability is God’s way of showing us that we despite are sincerest efforts are human and annoying it will only enlarge the problem. And when you think about it, it fundamentally makes sense. Not that God has it out for us, but to show us that we are here to learn, may it be from vulnerability or any other teacher. So my advice to you is open your ears and your heart just as wide to the possibilities.
Character
Someone once told me that they believe my character more than my word. Never before has truer words been spoken. Character is something deep-rooted into your being; there is no shaking it. They say our surroundings influence the character we will take on in life. Good or bad the end results lie with the bearer and how they chose to interpret. I don’t think it’s just that simple. It just makes life seem so trivial, which it is but nonetheless. I always say, “The surroundings can break the child”. People think the saying is that cut and dry but that is where you’d be wrong. We are given the power of free will. We are the masters of our fate. Meaning a certain “surroundings” “can” break you, if you allow it or you could to choose to rise above it. Emerging a stronger person for detouring the crushing odds. Building you, thus, building your own character. True character is not a tangible object you can give but something that you personify through your words, actions, and thoughts. Live the life you have made with the sweat of your brow and no other. Find your character that embodies the distinctiveness that you hold dear. Show the world that same individuality doesn’t make your “weird” but unique in all its glory. Testify that those of good character can alter this world for the good. Let your Character shine.
I have more so if you like these let me know.

| | Wowzers.... | | | Saturday, September 6, 2008 (9:11 PM)
(I'm feeling grateful) | | I had to do a paper for Sociology on the class distinction and new age cults (kinda like KKK (Kool Kids Klub. What were you thinking?)) and I didn't know that lv would be so darn helpful! I think I got all the information I needed in an hour. There is a specific person that I will base the paper on who online exploits have given me something to laugh about all week long (he/she/both will not be named. And no one flatter themselves and think I am stalking them.). I am grateful that such "colorful" people reside on lv. Thanks alot. I am definitely getting an A.
Side-note: this is in no way knocking anyone for being who they are. I just observed on the basic level and small inferences. I do not think that I am above anyone on lv. So please don't give me crap.
