day 31: a bit about your social life outside of tumblr

Once or twice a week, I go hang out with friends, but more often I stay home. Most of my social life revolves around dancing, which is funny, because I don’t dance. It’s just workshops and events that my friends drag me to participate in that most of my friends happen to be dancers haha. But I might be entering this one dance central competition near us soon. Pretty funny right? I guess that’ll be another way for me to meet new people.

“To all the people of world”

Alicia Ali Marsden

To all the people of world

The people in Egypt are under governmental siege. Mubarak regime is banning Facebook, Twitter, and all other popular internet sites Now, the internet are completely blocked in Egypt. Tomorrow the government will block the 3 mobile phone network will be completely blocked.

And there is news that even the phone landlines will be cut tomorrow, to prevent any news agency from following what will happen.

Suez city is already under siege now. The government cut the water supply and electricity, people, including, children and elderly are suffering there now. The patients in hospitals cannot get urgent medical care. The injured protesters are lying in the streets and the riot police are preventing people from helping them. The families of the killed protesters cannot get the bodies of their sons to bury them. This picture is the same in north Saini (El-Sheikh zoyad city) and in western Egypt (Al-salom). The riot police is cracking down on protesters in Ismailia, Alexandria, Fayoum, Shbin Elkoum, and Cairo, the capital, in many neighborhoods across the city.

The government is preparing to crackdown on the protesters in all Egyptian cities. They are using tear gas bombs, rubber and plastic pullets, chemicals like dilutes mustard gas against protesters. Several protesters today have been killed when the armored vehicles of the riot police hit them. Officials in plain clothes carrying blades and knives used to intimidate protesters. Thugs deployed by the Egyptian Ministry of Interior are roaming the streets of Cairo, setting fire on car-wheels as means of black propaganda to demonize protesters and justify police beatings and state torture

All this has been taken place over the past three days during the peaceful demonstrations in Cairo and other cities. Now, with the suspicious silence of the local media and the lack of coverage from the international media, Mubarak and his gang are blocking all the channels that can tell the world about what is happening.

People who call for their freedom need your support and help. Will you give them a hand?

The activists are flooding the net (youtube and other sites) with thousands of pictures and videos showing the riot police firing on armless people. The police started to use ammunition against protesters. 15-year old girl has been injured and another 25 year old man has been shot in the mouth. While nothing of these has appeared in the media, there is more to happen tomorrow. Will you keep silent? Will you keep your mouth shut while seeing all these cruelty and inhumane actions?

We don’t ask for much, just broadcast what is happening

This is fucking terrifying. Why is no one helping them.

This is real scary. Please please reblog.

This should be heard across the world. I don’t think it’s necessary at all of what they’re doing.

day 29: a date you’d love for someone to take you on

Haha, my friend made a post about this. A typical setting for me is that we get burgers and just talk and chill in the car. Make awkward moments and remember them for the rest of our lives. Of course, I don’t know what a real date is. The last real date I had was in 2009.

I’ll follow you back…is such a conceited statement. When you state something like that, people will like that post, but then the way they write will start to change. Let’s say you do find someone worthy of your attention, but that person is only writing that way just for that purpose..your attention. You’re not reading what is actually on their mind. You’re reading a piece of writing that is solely for an individuals mind, but not their own. Does it make you feel good that their writing has changed when they probably don’t even realize it? It’s alright though because you’re not the only well-known blogger out there with this conceited mindset. These aren’t thoughts written down, they’re thoughts dependent on another person’s expectations.

day 28: something that makes you really angry

When I’m being used. Recently, my friend and I had nothing to do over the weekend and we wanted to eat at Sushi Kaiten. When we got there, a group of our friends were already eating there. The main guy who hosted the group walked up to us looking guilty and asked if we wanted to hang out. We declined and left the place. The main guy calls me back and asks if I’m still there and once again makes the offer of chilling. I decline, but then he includes, “Yo, but I need a ride home”. I got pissed off and hanged up.

day 27: a person you wished lived closer and why

Jan. We’re close best friends. That’s all you need to know.

These are both my non-related brothers Chris and Andrew. During and after our friendship, they changed a lot. Andrew, went from this gang banging kid to this humble guy who changed because of friends, relationships, and other benefactors. He used to be a kid who constantly did terrible things, but now I see a kid who completely burned off his entire past of being a rebel. He completely talks in a formal manner and is an inspiring dancer that wants to specialize in popping, locking, wacking, and other styles.

Chris here is also a dancer, but wants to specialize in the art of popping such as Andrew. He recently entered a competition for Seattle’s Best Talent and got 1st place in the 1st round. He later realized how rigged it was and dropped from the competition when it came to the final round. After meeting Andrew and myself, he all of a sudden changed so much more and gained perspectives he never saw himself. He’s currently a straight A student and wants to take every opportunity that is thrown at him.

day 26: 5 things you’re looking forward to

1. Moving out
2. Working with Cativa v5
3. Getting the opportunity to work in a branch of Boeing
4. Improving throughout the 365 project
5. Seeing friends down in California

day 25: a friend you have lost that you’re better off without/one you wish you had back

Cj Choupe. A friend that came into my life only to walk away in the end. I’m glad he came in to my life to teach a lesson he didn’t know about. He probably doesn’t know that I stopped being a loner after he talked to me. He probably doesn’t know that I gained so many different socializing skills with just that one encounter with him. He doesn’t know all the great people I’ve decided to socialize with because of him. I think I am better off with out him because I can stand on my own now and possibly give the same hope to others.

day 24: your favorite 10 people right now and why

1. Jan

I love him a lot. He’s someone that nobody can replace. He’s there for me as much as I am for him haha. I don’t get to talk to him as much anymore, but every time we converse, it’s almost like we never stopped talking before hand. My best friend in the whole world!

2. Jordan

This guy…this stump. He’s a really chill guy. We need to smooth out some cracks when we hang out. He thinks he can embarrass me in public, but I can do much worst then when we last hanged out haha. He walks around a lot and can’t stay in one place…I think that’s why he is one of the favorites. He’s a dancer, so I guess he has to move some how.

3. Simon

This guy is just..I don’t know. He has really reasonable posts and I like them a lot. The way his perspective differ’s from every one elses is pretty unique. You probably won’t see that word used on here that much. Maybe just this once. His philosophical thinking is what makes him a favorite.

4. Preston

He get’s super embarrassed when I tell him “G’night and have fun watching porn and studying at the same time!”haha. He’s funny to talk to. He always greets me with an Aloha through aim, which I don’t understand why. There’s probably much more to learn about him, so this is it for this entry.

5. Nathalie(sister)

I’m super thankful for my sister and how open she is with her sexual orientation, just as I will soon.. She’s always been there for me like when I asked for my garage opener back this morning haha. She stole it from my car and I screamed at her for that, but I still love her.

6. Mailan Thach

Person I tell everything to. She doesn’t have a tumblr, but she knows how important she is in my life right now. She shrugged her shoulders when I told her about my orientation haha.

7. Nevermindwhattheysay

Oh man..this girl has some really creative writing pieces. I’m talking about her logical point of view. I like the way she thinks. I don’t know her real name…she’s mysterious

8. Tjsawsome

The way he writes his perspectives amuses me. I love the way he writes and I always enjoy the site he runs, which is called wewritewespeak. I haven’t submitted anything really, but I plan to soon.

9. Santiendo

I thought this dude was filipino..man, I was so wrong. I won’t tell anybody what ethnicity he is because it would throw you off. He’s a real chill guy and I want to get to know him more.

10. Steven Casner

“Dude” hahaha. He hates it when I call him that. I don’t know why yet. Maybe he’ll tell me tonight. I’ve just gotten to know this guy and we’re already doing stupid shit. Singing, dancing(no details), and faces I guess. He seems really cool.

day 23: a month/year of your life when you were happiest and why

2009

I couldn’t believe that I was graduating. I did so bad in high school because I wasn’t expressive enough with myself until my sophomore year. That’s when I tried harder, but not hard enough. But I’m glad where it got me. If I did really well in school, I’d probably would not make a tumblr and get to meet all these great people. 

And there are several thoughts that I know go on through your mind and it’s about time I tell you what they are. From my perspective, when I see a person with a variety of good writing pieces, I get this cocky impression like I’m not good enough to be in their presence. But I don’t give up hope because I want to get to know them, so I’ll message them. A good majority of these people will have that conceited attitude, so don’t be surprised when you don’t get some thing answered. They’re too good for you, but they won’t admit it.

“How come all my anonymous won’t just reveal themselves to me?”

You’ll never get an answer back when you reveal yourself. You’ll just get ignored. I find that to be amusing since this is another method to fish for more compliments or a way to get more followers. When you state something like that up there, it looks pathetic. I don’t know how you guys can do this to people who might look up to you in a way, but alright. If there’s an opportunity of getting to know a friend, then you should be appreciative of that. You only have so much time left in the world and your attitude or your writings shouldn’t be an excuse for that.

I’ve been treated the same way. From the day I walked into elementary to my sophomore year of high school. No one would believe me, but I was a complete loner from elementary to high school, until one day a kid came up to me and became my friend. From that day forward, I never left anybody out of a group. I always had to talk to that one person who didn’t know how to socialize. That one person who reminded me of myself was going to be my friend whether they liked it or not. And they were thankful for that because I helped change their views of certain people. 

So, when you go to my page, don’t label me with conceited, too good for you, or any other phrases or words. I will answer questions whether they’re anonymous or not. I’m not the type to leave anybody hanging because I used to be in that position. I know a couple few who also have this mindset, but that post will wait some other day.
