The Olympics makes it quite evident where people’s cultural identities lie. I have friends rooting for China and Korea, but it confuses me. They’re Americans! Why aren’t they cheering for America?
Growing up I never wanted to cheer for anyone other than Team USA. When I would ride bikes and race around with my brother and [...]

Cultural Ties
More chins than a Chinese phone book.
I’m not by any means fat, but if you had to judge just based on my face you might think otherwise. I’ve just inherited my father’s lack of a jaw line so any weight shows very easily in my face. Every time I show up somewhere in my work clothes, someone always asks [...]
Creatures of Habit
As humans we all get used to doing what is familiar to us. We get comfortable doing the same things over and over. There are restaurants that we frequent because we enjoy the food. We stick to certain products because they are what we have become accustomed to using. We say the same words and [...]
Just for Men
I cut my hair this week and while doing so I noticed how many gray hairs I have on my head. It’s better than being bald I guess, but I’m not even thirty! I pulled out more than a dozen, and I’m sure that wasn’t even half of them. (Yeah, I know that means I’m [...]

I got the chance to watch Avatar this weekend, and I suggest you go see it.

It might be harder to pick up girls with [...]
Call me Weezy
I remember one time my dad was sick with a cough and he wanted some medicine but didn’t have a doctor’s appointment until a couple more days. So I called up some high school friends to see if there was any Codeine at their houses. One of my friends said there was some and that [...]
Sports and Technology
It’s about time someone did this. Now we can plan our lives around our favorite sports teams! I can now tell you when I won’t be getting married. Thanks, Google!

Spoiled
I traveled inland for work today, two hours inland. I thought I was going to die. It is so ridiculously hot out there. Triple digit temperatures? That is uninhabitable land as far as I am concerned. Now I’m lying in my bed, thinking about how 75 degrees is too warm.
Can someone fan me while I [...]
