World Bank Poem

Not excited about this one:

Aggressive Texas Sun

She quickly dissolves

Shiny Fanta glides slowly

She luckily gathers

Planets slip peacefully beneath fuscia skies

Majestic benglas look intelligent

Glance quickly over aquamarine flowers

Listen softly next to herbs

Write peacefully

Rhyme rigorously





Favorite Movies

2 07 2009

I am a Star Wars and Lord of the Rings fan…Before I watched them I used to think that they were really nerdy and boring, but once I actually took the time to sit down and watch every single one of those movies, I really enjoyed them! They are over 20+ hours in total, but I don’t care, I actually wish there were more movies and more games about them.  They have excellent directors and an excellent cast for the movies. They really stood out because of the creativity of the story, I could never come up with ideas like that even if I tried; that’s why I’m not a screenwriter lol.  Thinking about what made a movie stand out to me, I stared thinking mostly about cinematography. I am a sucker for a movie that is edited well, even if the actors are terrible. I may still think that a movie sucks but at least it will stand out to me if the effects and editing in the movie are great. But of course great acting and writing will make the movie a most memorable one to me. Movies that create new ideas and not just itch my primal many instincts (Fast and the Furious) but movies that also make you think; whether that be suspense, or a horror or action (ie V for Vendetta). But yes every now and then I need a movie that just shows alot of action and war! Hence 300 being one of the top of my all time favorites.





Blogging…

2 07 2009

Will I keep up with this blog even after the class is over? Ehhh…Honestly? I don’t know. I’d probably be leaning a little towards no just because there are 0 readers subscribed to my blog and there definitely won’t be anymore after the class is over. Although I was amused when writing my stress relief blog, read it if you haven’t yet. Anyway, even if I did choose to keep blogging, I don’t think that I would really want to keep coming up with ideas to keep readers interested everyday so I wouldn’t keep up with the blog. I don’t understand how people can just blog every day, and half the time it is about pointless and meaningless things.  I’m sure if I turned this into a website with a specific topic that interests people then, yes, perhaps I could build a following but once again I am not interested in the moment in doing that.  It is silly how quickly we moved from the blogging era to the twitter era. Even shorter! How small is our attention spans that we created a blogging system to shortly define what is going on in our lives that we got bored with that and ask for even a shorter Mcdonald’s version of that! Geez, we could hardly write 250 words less alone read em, and now we evolved quickly into a one sentence what-is-going-on-in-my-life generation. I wonder what is going to happen next; much shorter can you get? On a scale from 1 to 10, how is my day?





Sing a Song, or Photoshop a picture

2 07 2009

I love working with Graphic media and pictures…If you need a  little bit of altering or touching up on your photos then come to me. I can’t work miracles though! Only Jesus can lol…Anyway, I have some background in building websites and creating graphic designs. It is such an interesting hobby that I have had for a long time and I could see myself working in that field. I just hope that I don’t get sick of it if it becomes just work and no fun. I know how to use Flash, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Photoshop and other software…If that’s all Chinese to you then don’t worry about me explaining it hahaha. I also love doing music. I can play a couple of different instruments and lead worship for my youth group. I also sing, I love to sing.  Don’t ask me to sing because I am not a person to just bust out in song and dance in front of people.  I have a background in classical music and have Choral training, but I love rock music and some jazz. I can listen to some rap (although i went through a phase in high school where that was ALL that I listened to) but I am really not interested in what is being played today in that genre. Anyway, one day hopefully I will start up a business that creates websites and graphic designs for companies!  Or maybe I can work for a television station and create their intros to their tv shows. Wouldn’t that be exciting?





Relieving Stress

30 06 2009

BangHeadHere

There are many many ways to relieve stress, and many people go to different lengths to get rid of it. From pills, to the newest fad of exercises and even yoga now, people are stressing themselves out on finding the cure to stress!

Now there is no surefire way to relieve stress, it works differently for everyone but I think that I can give some hints in at least getting rid of some of the bad stress.

Tip #1:

Play Some X-Box or Playstation 2!

Playing some calming or soothing game like Mario or something that brings back an air of nostalgia could help calm some nerves and get your mind off of other things.  But make sure that if you start losing alot, quit now and try something else because you may become frustrated at your skill of console gaming, or lack thereof.

Don’t Be This Guy

Tip #2:

Play some sports or lift some weights

Although playing games on the couch can be good to relieve stress, sometimes you just need to get off your can and do some physical activity. Now I know what your thinking, “But aren’t I doing my physical activity by exercising my brain when reading this?” The answer is No. A plain and simple No. Playing World of Warcraft for 18 hours straight while your arguing with your girlfriend for not giving her attention while simultaneously reaching for the Hoagie next to your computer is NOT exercise. Get away from the artificial light and into some natural light, it may burn the first time you leave your house, but your skin will get used to that; amazing, I know. Get a picture of a favorite athlete (if you don’t know any athletes, pick one, ANY one) and try to set your goals to match that person, it can make a big difference. I look up to Georges St. Pierre the UFC fighter.

Tip #3:

Read a Book

Here comes the part where half of my readers (If I have ANY) unsubscribe to my blog. Yes I am condoning reading. It’s not like I am asking you to watch through a full episode of the Golden Girls!

Bea Arthur was originally cast to play the girls father.

If it hurts your head to think of reading, then congratulations you are just like the other 98% of American youth!

 

Tip #4:

Listen to some music

And I mean some real music. Come on! Shame on you for even reaching for that Jonas Brothers album. If I wanted to watch a guy dance in tight clothes and high heels to a Beyonce song then I would just turn on an old game of the Chicago bulls and watch Dennis Rodman play some ball. O.o Ball? Oddly enough Joe Jonas reminds me of that Bill guy from Silence of the Lambs.

It puts the lotion on the!!…Oh…Hey there Joe Jonas.

So there are many different ways to relieve stress. People try many different ways to relieve it, sometimes goings to great lengths to even making themselves look like fools in the end. Trust me, just ask Joe Jonas. These are just a couple of tips that you could follow that might help relieve stress. Just make sure you don’t go dressing yourself up like a fool any posting it on youtube. *sigh* Joe…

 






Checking out another Blog

29 06 2009

http://www.cracked.com/blog/what-if-kanye-west-is-retarded/

So I read this blog by Daniel O’brian….It is a hilarious article titled “What if Kanye West is Retarded’ Now of course it is all in good fun so no need to take full offense to this. It is just a question that has popped through everyone’s mind at one point or another. It reminds me of the South Park episode where Kanye West does not get a certain joke and takes it as an offense to himself because he thinks people are making fun of him. Kanye West once called himself the voice of the generation. If he’s the voice of the generation than I feel really sorry for the ears of this generation. All he does is constantly talk about himself and how great he is. I would more call him the colon of this generation because of what he spews out of his mouth. Once again this is all in good fun, I think that Kanye makes great music and should be appreciated for that. But I think he takes it too far when he starts to say that he is a genius and that people should respect him for that lol…I think not. So anyway this article just talks about all the things that Kanye west has done that has not helped the cause that is Kanye West Intelligence….Read it, I promise you will be amused if you just take into account that this is just aimed at poking fun at Kanye, and nothing too serious.
