Righteous Anger

At some point in life, someone will do something that will make you so upset, you'll just want to give that person a piece of your mind. Before you do however, maybe think it over. I know that you want to lambaste that person until he cowers, hugging your knees and begging for apology.

But it is just as likely that he will get angry at your accusation and yell right back at you, making things worse. Or, if he is hyper-sensitive like me, he will mope about the rest of the day, crying about it on the inside and whining to all his friends about how someone scolded him.

This person was probably NOT out to annoy you, and you'll probably never see him again, so why engage in an unhappy dispute? Why not use that same energy to bestow a compliment upon an unsuspecting stranger instead? There's already plenty of negativity in this world, but there's never enough love being casually tossed around.


Let's all spread some more love.

Don't Call Me. Ever.

Ha ha ha.. Don't confuse obnoxious with truthful, aight? While others come across as overly friendly, but end up being lame, I try to come across as pragmatic and hope that you can see the love that lies beneath.

There are two things I love doing.. exchanging emails and hanging out with my friends and hot guys. I am not really into talking with people on the phone. It's a conversation that never really begins or ends. I used to think that I sucked at it because I was shy, but now I realize that it's because most of the time, I don't have anything to say.

With email, you can hit someone up any time about anything. It can be long or short, and that person can answer you whenever s/he wants. You can go back and forth or not.. 'sall good.

When I'm on a date, I've clearly set aside a portion of my life to spend with this person. We do things together, we look at each other a lot, maybe we flirt, it's a lot of fun.

But when the phone rings, I'm always in the middle of doing something else. I'm either at work, so it's awkward to talk about personal stuff, or I'm at home, and I'm trying to eat supper or work on music or animation, and I'm not in the mood for talking. Sometimes I will be lying on the couch, and I'll call someone, but then THEY'RE usually out with their friends or eating dinner or so on. It's difficult, and it rarely works out.

The only people I really enjoy conversing with on the phone are my family and close friends. We're so close that we can jabber on and on about pretty much anything, and it's fun and exciting. I love everyone else, but if they live in NYC, then I'd rather just hang out face to face.. and if they live far away, then I'd rather just stick with emails.

The phone is best for organizing events.. "where are you?" "I'm on 40th and Lex." "Hey, are you free on Monday?" "No, Tuesday is best." "Okay." and so on.. not as much for "What's new in your life?" "Um... where to begin...?" ha ha ha


So remember, I do love you!!! In fact, by laying out a proper framwork, I'm making it easier for you to love me in ways I will appreciate the most. And of course, as with everything I say, there are plenty of exceptions to this rule.. nothing's written in stone. I'm curious.. maybe do many of you feel the same way? Or just the other introverts?



take care,
love, soce

diet tips

Here are some things I've come up with or heard elsewhere:

1. Only eat when you're hungry. I have a pretty small appetite.. generally restaurants have huge servings, so I have no problem with using the doggie bag a lot. I find that once I'm no longer hungry, I eat much, MUCH slower, and suddenly every bite is a huge struggle. At that point, it's just not worth eating any more.. better to save it for later, when I'm hungry again.
   
2. Drink plenty of water. It's good for you, and it makes you less hungry. Don't go crazy on the water, but well a few glasses throughout the day.. unless you're of course trapped on the highway, walking through a rich neighborhood or anywhere else where you'll have a hard time finding a place to pee.
   
3. Exercise. I like to take plenty of walks throughout the week. The best time for some cardio is right when you wake up.. it makes your whole day so much better. Plus you'll be hungrier, and you'll get to eat more, yay! You'll have air in your blood, and your metabolism will be higher.
   
4. Try some fruits and vegetables. They are our friends! Give them a shot! Just a few at first.. maybe more later!
   
5. Go easy on sweets and fats. Treat yourself, but don't go crazy. Like, you could have a slice of triple choco molten lava death cake, but then maybe don't follow it up with a milk shake. Sweets should be something really special, so if you have them all the time, then you're just eating them and not enjoying them.

So that's the gist of it. Eating should be a celebration. Something you do to enjoy and love. Variety of food groups, healthy food.. don't just eat for the sake of eating-- it's good to eat throughout the day in small portions, as long as you're eating healthy things (like don't snack on cookies or candy but try veggies or fruits)-- so that way you're never crazily starving and gorge yourself.

I'm definitely not perfect or anything, but sometimes I think people want to make changes in their life-- they're just not sure where to start, and it can seem like a huge deal when its not. word--

What makes someone hot?

I'm often curious about this myself, because it was like a big step for me to decide that I'm into men and not women. But then I feel like it was almost an even bigger step for me to come out as being into larger men ha ha!! Gays across the world look at me like, "What??"

But yeah I'm intrigued because while I'm definitely into all sorts of guys, and I don't have any particular type--there are some normal and/or small guys I'm totally into as well--80%-90% of the time, I'll be into guys who fall in the 180lbs-280lbs range, give or take a bit... So it's a little weird for me, because I'm only ~150lbs, so I probably wouldn't date myself if I somehow saw myself out in the streets...

Anyway it always weirds me out how two people can look at the same person, and one's jaw will totally drop, while the other won't give a second glance. It's not as big of a surprise when I'm w/ a straight friend, and he gets all googly over a hot woman and I don't, but it never fails to make me laugh a lil bit when I'm w/ a gay friend and he looks at a skinny dude and starts gasping and fawning. I'm like, "Man, what's wrong with you?" and he's like, "Yo, what's wrong with YOU!!"

Nothing is wrong with either of us.. I just don't fully understand.. I mean some people like horror films, and some prefer comedies... Some like chicken and others prefer soy products-- tacos vs masaman curry-- democrat vs republican... I guess taste in people somehow seems more personal because my heart rarely does flips over the food I eat. Like, I may claim that the macaroni and cheese I had last night was "as good as having sex", but at the same time, I don't lay in bed at night fantasizing about macaroni and cheese. But maybe I should.....

New Superhero: Shirtless Man!!!

Hey what's up. I was walking down the street this morning, and I saw some dudes holding up a corner store. Being the brave fellow that I am, I strolled into the store, ripped off my shirt, tie and white tee and cried out, "There's no need to fear! Shirtless man is here!!!"

"Look out for my super powers!!"

"Stunning good looks!!"

"Powerful deoderant!"

"Nipples of steel!!!"

Needless to say, the crooks handed back the money and ran off. The store owner was all like, "Oh thank you shirtless man, but you know the rules... no shirt, no shoes, no service.. please leave."

Yay!

I haven't posted in here forever!! Let's see.. there's exciting things going on in all sides of my life. Work, music, play, friends, guitar, myspace, lj, t-shirts, photography, piano, violin.. man.. I like making lists.

I've been having really active dreams lately, so that means that my mind is on the move again. I even had a dream last night where I was eating all of these delicious cookies, cakes and brownies.. and that almost never happens!!! Usually, I see a tray full of them, and then the moment I start eating them, I wake up. But this time, my mind actually let me experience the delicious taste of them. It's funny.. when I was dreaming, I was like "Oh, all this sugar and fat.. it's bad for me!" But then when I woke up, I was like, "Yay! I got to experience the great taste of baked goods without intaking any actual calories, lol!"

New Post!

Wow, bet you find that pretty exciting. Let's see. How 'bout a game:

1) Touch your nose.
2) Touch your toes.
3) Wiggle your pinky.
4) Hop up and down on one foot.

5) Now, run around 4 blocks, making sure you only take LEFT turns.

6) Shake your fist in the air.

7) I hope you've printed this out, right? You can't be sitting at your computer while you do this.

8) Finally, crouch down. Down to the ground. And then count to 7. Then leap, Leap, LEAP high, high up into the air!!


Congratulations! You've become a kid again!

Repeat as necessary.


til next time,
forever yours,
love, soce

I have no life.

I was sad at the idea of putting comments on Matt's blog as "Anonymous", so I just went and got my own blog. But I probably won't post to it too much because I have like a million other blogs and websites out there. Even so, I have no life.
