Insignificant words changing significantly... (may sound irrelevent to blog, but is actually quite r
I've realized that right now is the time when I start to plan about my future.
How come the fear of failure manipulates us towards even more failure? Don't be scurredd, as cliche as this sounds, when one door shuts, 10 more open. It seems like people,including me, set their expectations low so that they don't have to worry about failure. It's just that today my friend told me that when I commented about how he should aim high, pursue his dream (being a part of Kaba Modern and attending UCI), and strive for higher goal, it stuck with him. He said how such little words stuck with him and pushed him to plan out the next two years of his life to the best degree. That was the nicest things anyone's ever said to me...
Thus I leave you with this (and some more cliches). Don't be afraid to take on an opportunity because of the fear of failure. Failure gets you that much closer to success, plus you pick up a few more tricks on the way. Take life by the horns. Try try again. and don't underestimate your abilities... success is a mixture of a little bit of luck, persistence, and hard work.
Maybe I'll start taking my own advice.... one day...
I hope this helps with college apps you seniors.

Reading the World in Retrospect
When I see someone walking down the street I wonder what kind of people they're friends with. I wonder what they ate for breakfast, where their favorite restaurant is. It's almost as if they're a blank canvas and I just painted them their world. I don't understand why I do this, it's almost like a disease/hobby. I imagine what they do on the weekends, if they like cream in their coffee or simply what their room looks like. I even apply this to everything i.e. Myspace! If I see some ditsy little teenybopper's myspace with pink sparkles bordering her page, I immediately assume that she spends half her day texting superficial people and she listens to Paramore all the while "Tee-Vo"ing "the Hills" to see what new drama Lauren has gotten herself tangled up with, but then take it a step further... I see her brushing her teeth with a purple toothbrush with Colgate (crest never made them pearls really sparkle) and her laundry basket is filled to the brim because she couldn't decide what to wear for the weekend.
I don't know, I guess what I'm trying to do is justify my subconscious prejudgmental habit...
But then it also answers the question of how I seem to be so comfortable around strangers, it's as if I already know them.

Robbin' in the Hood
I personally like Robin Hood. He stole for the greater good, to help out the poor peasants.
But today I most definitely did not run into the modern-day Robin Hood.
Shit always seems to happen to me, from multiple back to back accidents, to stolen cash/purse/license/mp3. etc.
I'm not taking this very well, if you can't tell.
Have a great night.

A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
