<br />
I always lose myself every once in awhile, lose determination to be my very best. It is so so easy to get distracted. To be in a whatever kind of mood <i>all</i> the time. But the thing is, there is a certain time for that and I really need to learn how to control it. And then there's the opposite, at times I become too absorbed. I start caring too much. Which I've learned makes people very uncomfortable haha, <i>sighh. </i>And so, I will tone down a bit. Maybe things will just mend itself over time.<br />
<br />
But anyways, it's time for me to explore, to have fun, and to truly feel comfortable being me :)<br />

Life feels exciting, meaningful and overall just..better.<br />
<br />
After breaking out of my "shell", I realized that meeting new people is so much fun! It is rather nerve racking to converse with a stranger, not knowing really how to approach things, without being too awkward. It's a bit better in a study group because there is a common interest, a goal to achieve, a point for you to be there. But when you meet someone, a complete stranger, just out of the blue..it kind of just throws you off. Never have I ever felt so nervous but at the same time, eerily relaxed? I am not even sure. But I was definitely in a zone, nothing else really mattered. And just like that, 4 hours flew by. It went by so fast that it felt unreal, like it never happened. I wonder what kind of impression I made. Will we meet again?Grannihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00240259934941750923noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871443719602372810.post-55011549050666346052013-02-28T13:39:00.001-08:002013-02-28T13:39:13.954-08:002013-02-28T13:39:13.954-08:00The Oatmeal<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Finally bought this book at B&N yesterday. Hadn't started reading it yet, but considering the many case studies I have to read for Business Ethics on top of the normal textbook reading. It will take me much longer to complete and appreciate.<br />
<br />
Maybe I'll take a break from work and start with a couple of pages to go with my smoothie, yumm :d<br />

I've recently reverted back to using Safari from chrome. Not that chrome has anything wrong with it, I just came upon it loading very slowly all the time and hadn't had the time to figure out whats wrong. Anyhow, I discovered this option in Safari called "Reader." It's an excellent view option that takes away all the ads, useless clutter and gives you, in a larger font the important contents of the page. I see that it really helps me focus and generally easier on the eyes. Unfortunately, it's not available for all webpages, but a majority of them are adaptable. Just click on the grey [reader] button next to the refresh symbol ( it's in your address bar ).<br />

We all probably know why we should recycle. But since it hasn't affected us directly, we don't see how the small changes we make, can actually make a HUGE difference. We may think, it's only a couple bottles a week and I mostly use a thermos so that's helping right? If everyone did the same, it is now not only a couple bottles a week, but thousands and millions of bottles. So think again, small actions CAN make big changes.<br />

I first go through the highlights of that day. I remember certain images and I play through them kind of like a mini-movie. Once I reach certain thoughts, sometimes it goes off on a tangent. Soon I catch myself thinking way back into the past or way into an imagined future. What can I do now that will make my future come true? How can I be sure what I'm doing now is what I want to do 5 years from now? I know I can't just stop and do nothing till I miraculously "know" what I want to do for the rest of my life. Where can I muster up the determination, motivation and perseverance for my last 3 semesters?<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
By combining equal parts passion and engineering, eliminating unnecessary parts and multiplying the amount of useful features, coloud brings you highly durable headphones that just makes sense.</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
I ordered Coloud The Knock headphones in grey/red but its more of a pink than red. I actually read a couple reviews before purchasing it off <a href="http://fab.com/1mm7iy">Fab </a>so mostly no surprises. The main thing I was worried about was the comfort. I've always had problems with headphones giving me headaches if I wore them too long, which is the main reason why I was hesitant on buying these. However the functionality and minimalist design of the headphones made me give it a second thought.<br />
<br />
PROs<br />
They are indeed really light. The headphones feature a tangle free system with flat cables. The plug can also be used to secure the cable together for storage (pictured on the bottom right). The mic/remote can be used to pick/hang up calls and control music. Overall, these are great casual headphones that offer surprisingly awesome sound at an affordable price.<br />
<br />
CONs<br />
The headphones give me a slight headache. However, most headphones have this problem, they need time to be stretched out. Although mine have stretched out a bit, it still gives me a dull headache. The cushioning is starting to have the indentation from my ear (as weird as that sounds lol). Hopefully they will feel more comfortable as I wear them more. The other con I was worried about, was that if I were to turn up the volume, can people hear what I'm listening to? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. But so far that hasn't been a huge problem for me.<br />

<br />
Update:<br />
They don't give me a headache at all. The cushioning has dented (forms around the shape of my ear) which seems to be normal, doesn't cause any trouble. I originally wanted to wear these outdoors but because of winter clothes and all the layers, I end up pulling on the cable and it slides off easily. Maybe I'll take them outside once it's warmer. </div>

That is whenever I'm frustrated. Although I'll be turning 20 in 4 months I still feel like a kid; most definitely treated like one. How am I supposed to become independent if I never get a chance to give it a try. I'm sure I've been given a lot more privileges nowadays, more so than before. I mean at least I'm allowed out of the house, so thats a start right? It's funny how every time I go hangout with friends I'll get kidnapped and how when I ask for the car, it's automatically going to come back totalled. I'm sure you know I'm not that irresponsible. But of course things happen. Like always when it comes down to the end, I understand you are just being a mother and obviously you care about my safety. However there is so much I can take. And you must know I hate arguing, especially when it is pointless. You just always end up hearing what you want to hear and none of my reasoning sinks in. Sigh. Lol ironically I sound just like a kid.<br />
<br />
Everything has an expiration date. I've given relationships a try and it didn't turn out as I'd even hoped for it to be like. But it was still an experience that I don't regret having gone through. It has definitely changed my point of view on many aspects in life and all that cliche stuff. However I've decided I surely don't want to be in another one anytime soon. I guess it would get lonely but at least its better than talking to someone who's always too busy to listen. But now that there is someone who does, it doesn't feel quite right. Maybe I'm just being picky, who knows.Grannihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00240259934941750923noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871443719602372810.post-72785733385806791602012-05-12T16:06:00.002-07:002012-05-15T11:59:35.568-07:002012-05-15T11:59:35.568-07:00When Nothing Makes Sense<a href="http://thoughtcatalog.com/2012/when-nothing-makes-sense/">http://thoughtcatalog.com/2012/when-nothing-makes-sense/</a><br />

So my sophomore year had just ended and I did pretty well. Although not as well as I had hoped :T Hopefully it's good enough for RBS. *crosses fingers* But now that all the stress, studying and essays are all over, I'm left with so much free time. But I feel too lazy to go out, what a major dilemma. I should probably start moving and get a job. Yep that's the plan for now.Grannihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00240259934941750923noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871443719602372810.post-48041388260425144152012-05-06T14:36:00.000-07:002012-05-06T14:36:05.920-07:002012-05-06T14:36:05.920-07:00An Interesting Film To Watch<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://cf5.thingd.com/default/215599897_c230ea5f446f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://cf5.thingd.com/default/215599897_c230ea5f446f.jpg" width="257" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><br />

Throughout the year we learned about the confucian values of essentially how to learn. One of my classmate's view on learning was that it was something </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">inevitable that</span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> we do so that one day we can become successful and then afterwards seek to pursue an interest. I think that we should instead alter our approach towards learning. It shouldn't be something dreaded, it also shouldn't feel like an obligation. It should be fun and amusing. Depending on the topics, it maybe be mundane, not everything will spark an interest. However one should still look forward to eduction and the experiences it brings. Even if it doesn't lead to the ideal lifestyle you may have in mind. Being educated and well rounded gives a person character and personality. It changes your perspectives in life and allows you to appreciate more. One of my other group members had a rather pessimistic point of view. He asked what the reason for learning is if once have a job the people there would tell you that whatever you learned in the past was wrong and this is how it should be done. It is a somewhat narrow approach. Let me ask then why do we value learning so much if its not important. If people care enough to criticize our educational system then it must be worthy of attention. He probably didn't mean that we don't need to go to college or have good education. But I can definitely sense that he feels forced to go to class and would rather start working as soon as possible. That is pretty normal, I'm sure everyone has experienced it some time in their college years. Nonetheless, if he were to change his approach and view point, it will make the rest of his years here more enjoyable. Learning is such a broad topic, it doesn't only pertain to education, we just happened to focus on that aspect of it. To wrap things up, learning is a process, one that will last a lifetime. It is something we all need and have the ability to do. It takes time and needs to be cultivated. Even so it is something worthwhile.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I kind of got lost with my point in writing this post somewhere in the middle of it.

I am no longer under the impression that I have control over my life. Yesterday most definitely felt like a dream, one that I wouldn't want to wake up from but also scared to live in. I really dislike how I can be so easily swayed and I don't know how to fix it or even where to start. What should I do? This time around, I really have no clue.<br />

Up until now, I thought I knew what I wanted to do. I believed that as long as I found the right keys, the door would open for me. Except I left out a very valuable yet obvious fact. I didn't work hard enough to find the key I want. I always wish to be exceptional at something, yet I haven't tried exceptionally hard at anything. Here I am just trudging along, sluggishly. It's about time I wake up and force myself to focus. To devote time into things that do matter, that will ultimately determine my future. No more shall I waste time on trivial matters. </div>Grannihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00240259934941750923noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871443719602372810.post-27061433636775301402012-03-20T09:41:00.001-07:002012-03-20T09:41:06.423-07:002012-03-20T09:41:06.423-07:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzvgjixrV61qhuq3ao1_500.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="229" src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzvgjixrV61qhuq3ao1_500.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Grannihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00240259934941750923noreply@blogger.com1
