Mo Cushla

It's finally 2014. Day 2 of us ringing in the new year. And I keep on seeing posts on Facebook and Instagram about making this year better then the last. I don't disagree but I don't think it's fair to measure personal improvement based on what year it is. Personal improvement should be a constant process. The day I told myself I can be a better person I began to do things differently. Small thing here, small thing there, culminating into me improving as a human being. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't agree with judging what I've done based on time. I believe the only time you should measure is how much time left you have left on this earth to make a difference.

Umph

People foreign and of whom speak with accents in English give it the extra umph.

I have come to realize that when you want added.. how do I put this.. dramatic effect. When you want something to be deeper and more emotional, you get someone with an accent to say it. Now I'm not saying a straight up Fob will make me quiver. I'm saying people who have mastered the English language, yet still speak with an accent just makes it that much more better. Better!!! Am I crazy to think the best way to speak English is to have a non English native speak it?! Case in point, example #1:

Boom Ken Watanabe makes shit sound so dramatic. I would take him more seriously then Tom Cruise that's for sure.

Now for example #2:
Fucking Javier Bardem.. now isn't that some Evil ass shit? There has to be a reason every single villian in James Bond has never been an American... yet all speak English?! Cause foreigners make the English language sound so much better.

Just a random thought I just wanted to share. I know it's random but damn.. it's true.

One hat = Many meanings

So when an Asian guy wears a trucker hat it all comes down to what ethnicity they are. If a Chinese or Taiwanese guy does it it's because they fobby. Wanna get that fob style down.

When a Korean guy wears a trucker hat they just want to be flashy. And will probably accompany that with an Ed hardy tshirt.

When a viet guy wears the trucker hat they just.. Being normal and want to look douchey. Nothing to it. But thing about it 3 ethnicities wearing the same thing but portraying a different image. Amazing. I will have to go with my roots and Ed hardy my wardrobe up.

Things That Annoy Me

I might add to this later, but here are a few things that annoy me:

1. When you're shopping online, and you click to enlarge the product image.. and the picture that pops out is the same size as the picture before.

2. When you see a random girl's name on Facebook that sounds cute, so you click on her profile picture to quench your stalking thirst, cept in literally every single picture that ho has up there's like 15 girls in them so you can't figure out which one she is. It's called FACEbook..... bitch.

3. Dane Cook

occasionally, i like to write poetry

//bullies
ever step in the shoes of those you step on?
felt a poke to the chest where your heart rests on?
perhaps a depression is left when the pressure kept on
or did you lift your leg and just pressed on

//bread
some kneed it, some make it
some eat it, some take it

A Weird Confession

Every night before I sleep I always have the need to be doing something. So I develop little habits. Here are the two habits I currently have before I sleep, and please don't laugh.

1. Watch Friends - Even though I have seen every single episode.. twenty times I need to watch at least one episode before I can turn the lights off and attempt to sleep.

2. Instagram - Starting anywhere between 8-10pm everyday I shun instagram like Sarah Palin shuns intelligence. This is so a good amount of interesting pictures posted builds up and I have a bunch to look at when it's time to sleep. Looking at instagram is the last thing I do before I close the eyes.

Well there you have it, my sleeping ritual before going to bed.

Change

So, I found an essay I wrote during my freshman year in college. Excuse the weak writing but I ain't going to edit it.

Change

Everybody, or at least a good number of people, would like to change at least one thing in their lives, whether it is a physical change or a mental change. I am definitely no exception. If I had the ability to change one thing in my life, I would change the life itself. I would choose a much more simple life where drama would not exist, and that life would have to be the life of a polar bear.

Polar bears, in my humble opinion, have it all. They basically eat and sleep all day. They even get to relax in winter, which is my favorite season of the year, for their whole life. Who needs a cell-phone or a television set when I could get the whole world of snow for myself to explore? It’s basically living the exciting life of the Discovery Channel with no commercials, and I know everybody hates commercials.

Now you’re probably thinking, “Is he serious, a polar bear?” Well, I am to an extent. I really would love their completely relaxed lives. These days, the world revolves around money. Let’s not kid ourselves for a moment: the whole purpose of getting a higher education is to get a higher stack of cash at the end of the day. Most of that cash goes to bills, bills, and more bills anyway. Money, however, is not the only concern in my life that would drive me to become a polar bear.

The biggest problem I would most want to get rid of would have to be that awful thing they call drama. I’m not going to go out of my way and say that my life is awful because of it; I’m sure there are billions of people out there with more problems than me. That, however, is not going to change the fact that I would prefer life without it. I won’t have to worry about petty things like, “Oh my gosh, Brandon just hung up the phone on me. That’s like, oh my gosh, so depressing!” I would no longer have to stress over my education, which ends up involving my parents, which ends up in drama. Being a polar bear would change all of that. The only stress I would have to worry about would be filling my stomach before hibernation.

So what better choice of change is there than to become a polar bear? If that was the essay topic, my essay would be a blank sheet of paper. Without the concerns of money or the worries of drama, it doesn't get much better than that. I still get the luxuries of eating my heart out, rolling around the snow, and raising a fine family of baby polar bears. On top of all that, I will also be sporting the hippest style in the world which would be polar bear fur. So while everyone's topic is probably changing their “C’s” into “A’s," I will be eating fish and relaxing in Alaska, and I would take that over an “A” any day.
