One day you become tired of fighting for love and wish you’d chose...
I’d give up heaven to be that which fills your eyes…
I intend on changing this..
I have become lazy about blog posts…so I just steal what’s on my dashboard.
Days like this...
With days like this, moments that one should never have to tolerate…they don’t break me down…anymore.
Days like this I just become more and more numb.

Monday Night Negativity Toss
If you’re that upset about it, change it. Get up, get dressed, put on your smile…and walk right out that door.
So after a few weeks of being unstable with my happiness, somedays being really high up and then suffering those terrible lows, I decided to join my awesome cousin on her Monday night NEGATIVITY toss. Apparently, City Year has done her well ;) teachin’ her all...
There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable.

The Importance of Being One
The difficulty Americans face accepting the, some would claim harsh, reality of being a minute particle of society stems from their values of being an individual. Our government, one of the five most influential institutions explicitly tells us we’re an individual by giving us the right to freedom, and of course placing an immeasurable amount of significance to our, “Life, liberty, and the...
I feel like, no matter how far time and society places us, somewhere there is a...

The Third Day of June
June third is a pretty emotional day for many of my family members…but today I want to make some noise for my grandmother and just celebrate her life. She lived a good one, and we should just smile and be happy for her. Fours years have passed, and I can still remember her sweet scent and her warmth. Love you Dadi Ma

graduation
Every year around the 20th and the 21st of May, my sister and I somehow always witness a beautiful display of fireworks. The act is unintentional, and we’re usually doing something insignificant like cleaning, getting dressed, or just lounging on the couch. Last year I watched the fireworks up close. And today, as I sit on my couch at 4:28 am, I just want to say that I have finally...
Let's Define Love
Does love mean ending life? Certainly not. And yet so many people fear love as if it were death knocking on the door; awaiting to simply slit their throat or possibly slowly suffocating them till their last breath. People picture love to be a death in which they suffer a long, painful sentence that ultimately leads to the end of life.
Maybe we need not define love. Maybe what we’re...

What does America mean to us...
Probably the best social experiment is one that isn’t prepared beforehand. I must mention that at this moment of history, I just witnessed an amazing scene. A man in the library gets up and shouts, “Osama is dead. America WINS AGAIN!!!” The University of Texas is probably one of the most proud schools ever—we’re just so damn prideful. I find that important to...

tendency to consider the unknown as less...
I’ve always believed that you shouldn’t do something unless if it completely satisfies you…so I let a lot of opportunities go…and then when I see others enjoying what I’ve carelessly freed…I wonder why I’m not the one enjoying it.
But you know, I have that disease…If I can have it, I don’t want it.
Should I settle for what I consider less? ...
Vanity Fair Political Post on Donald Trump
HAHAHAHA THIS MAKES ME GIGGLE. TOTALLY ENTERTAINING. After posting this piece, I will finally retire for the night—or the morning? See you sometime mid-evening tomorrow? With all my love to my three most loyal followers. Goodnight and sorry for dominating (better yet, throwing up) on your dashboards.
If Trump intends to declare his candidacy for the presidency, as he has so often...

The Unwelcomed Next Phase
Growing up, I was always anxious to move on to the next phase of my life. As a preteen, I wished I was in high school with all of my friends—having a cell phone and staying up really late. As I approached my high school days, I wanted to be a young adult with my significant other so we could dwell together, spend the entire night out at parties, go on dates, maybe get engaged, get...
The Unsolved Puzzle
This is how my blog post began:
hello last six days of being an undergrad! everything comes to an end in such a bad way…that you practically become ready for the next phase in life. it’s my last week as an undergrad, and here i am trying to fork up something to write for my papers…i wish it was a subject matter which i appreciated. HATE YOU HISTORY.
Then I made the mistake...
It’s expiration-dating!
Seven more days...seven.
Listening to the ruffled sound of going out music makes me realize how long it’s been since I’ve enjoyed the pleasure of getting dressed up and going out…and suddenly I’m motivated to get all of my work done so I can enjoy the last few weekends of being an undergrad!
Oh Dear Lord,
Please make the next seven days pass by as quick as possible, please.
Love,
Me <3

Addicted to Caffeine?
Here’s the good news! Caffeine, despite being a drug, can enhance a workout session, reduce bloating, and decrease soreness post workout! http://www.health.com/health/article/0„20411141,00.html If you’re anything like me, then you must need coffee in order to function on a daily basis. I used try my best avoiding coffee on the days I wanted to workout because I thought...
