Day 17: Something To Look Forward To

I am one of those that tries to be welcoming to the time that is to come and the challenges and events it presents to me in its foreign ways. But if there is something that I am very eagerly looking forward to, it would be my education. One word, ENGINEERING!

Day 16: Dream House

There's always some sort of characteristics that we would like with our 'ideal' car or 'ideal' house or 'ideal' lifestyle. Surprisingly, I have a vivid picture of the house of my dreams. It would definitely have many unique yet welcoming characteristics. The roof for one, would be circular and the house would have several skylights. The house would be located on an elevated piece of land, maybe a hill or cliff type setting. It would have many trees around it since I'd love to have the feeling of escaping from the cities of chaos. But if I were to pick one picture from the previous list that entails my ideal house. It may look very much like this..

Day 15: Bible Verse?

Let's start with a minor issue that I have here, I'm not a christian. Nor am I one to know the verses of the bible but I do know some from my hindu scripture. It is from the 'bhagvad gita', the translated version states 'Of sacrifices, that sacrifice performed according to duty and to scriptural rules, and with no expectation of reward, is of the nature of goodness.' The true meaning does hold the integrity to a certain level and as we live our lives, we learn what we truly mean by saying this, learning this and following this.

Day 14: A Picture From A Year Ago

This is what I was.. a year ago. Can't say too much.. its been much the same, not too much difference (i think).

Day 13: Goals

I set all sorts of varied goals for myself to build experiences and events in my life that will please me when I achieve them. Unlike most people, I don't put it down on a timeline but I have a mental framework of where I began, where I am and where I want to be by the end of the time interval. For example, I have a goal of staying fit and in a decent shape. This goal really doesn't have a time interval, it's a recurring goal and so I break it down to what my workout or training should be like and how often I should do it. I guess I HAVE to be specific in my goals or I don't feel motivated to do it because I don't quite see what or how it will help me in the future. I have a goal to become an Energy Systems Engineer and work for the government or a private company which works with the government too. Apart from educational/proffessional goals, I also want to travel with my friends. I have a goal to travel parts of the world with my friends and choose a dangerous sport or themed activity of our choice and the others HAVE to follow along!

I shall take your leave now, gotta work on these goals!

Day 12: Something I Dont Leave My House WIthout

There's always the usual.. wallet, keys, proper aesthetics and oh yeah clothes ;)
I guess the one important thing that I do not leave without is my 'survival and common sense'. The one thing that keeps me alive and going everyday, the one thing that is not very common, the 'common sense'. Oh and I guess I don`t leave without my driver`s license anymore either.. catch me on the streets ;D

Day 11: Favorite TV Shows

Some people that know me, KNOW that I'm not one who likes to watch soap operas or stories like such. I am not a very patient or dedicated viewer in that respect. Television has been a part of our lives since a very young age. We were the pioneers of the information age and the television was and IS a very prominent part of our media. When I was a young child, I watched the animated cartoon adventures of mickey mouse and the other pioneers of Disney. They taught us many things from behind that CRT tube.

However, when I do kick back now to watch some television, I try and find some reality TV shows. I know that some of them might be rigged and what not but at the end of the day, they entertain me enough to be able to walk away with a laugh or a smile. I also like to watch competition shows or quiz shows like I used to watch Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire when they were aired on. Today, the reality TV shows have changed with time and now some of my new favorites are Cash Cab, So You Think You Can Dance, American Idol, Wipeout and Minute To Win It!

Perhaps these shows trigger somethings in my unconscious where I think and wonder, how would I deal with situations or circumstances such as these? How would I celebrate if I won that amount of money? What would I do with that money and wealth and opportunities? When I think about it.. it feels like life is short and if I cant experience all of these 'what if's, I can at least pursue that ONE thing that I love and make the most of what I have.. today!

We'll be back tomorrow, same time, same channel, with your host ;D
