omg. this is my first post returnin to typin on a keyboard instead of my itouch. let me apologize for the lack of smilies in my last 2 posts. its not like me and should do more to stay consistent in my ramblings

wait u thought i was serious?

wut does my tagline say? “All About Me” i dont give a shiznit if u missed the smilies or not. its my damn blog much. …ok i lied. i care

lol anyways….

so today i had my first jury duty assignment. well not my first. i went to the courthouse b4, but i was able to postpone it and leave so i dont count that as my first. but this time i was there for the whole thing. getting called, goin to the coutroom, meetin the ADA’s, hearin the interview..the whole shabam. i gotta say it was fun(well teh first part was. i was pissed in the courtroom, but ill explain that later).

i met 2 really cool guys. its kinda funny cuz the first one, andrew, sat down next to me and wouldnt stop movin his leg and rockin the chair so i wanted to just stab his leg wit my pen….but then he started tlkin to me and we got to chattin. then we were together the whole day. he actually got picked to b on the case and i didnt. yaay for me, bad for him(he didnt wanna do it). i didnt learn the other guy’s name but he was a big fitness guy. i felt wierd eatin my mconalds and he refused to eat cuz he was waitin til he got home to eat his protein bar….anorexic much. well reverse big muscle-rexic. but the whole time i was chattin and listenin to music so my day was awesome

then i got into the courtroom and heard the case…..

idk. my little bro just popped in my mind. oh yea, lemme tell u the case. basically, the guy was being accused of criminal negligence because of his pitbull attacking and seriously injuring a 3yr old. yea i kno… but yea, i just saw a scene of him on the side and mikey was on the sidewalk and his pitbull jumps on him and starts biting the hell out of him. i wanted to jump off the bench and beat the shit out of him myself.

no better yet, i shouldve stabbed him with the knife i had on my keychain. which, by the way, i actually got stopped for when i was comin baq into the building. i was like wow. the guy let me through though so it wasnt that big a deal. then he was on my mind the entire day while i was there. i just kept wonderin if he was behaving lol. he better had been.

but yeaz, i just wanted to share my experience with jury duty and finally do a blog post not on my itouch. im gettin too lazy lol.

til next time. stay frosty

p.s. hi thomas.

OOPS DID I MISS SUMTHIN?

Posted by ckashaan on January 3, 2010
Posted in: Uncategorized. Tagged: little bro, tutoring, updates, vacation, vlog, youtube. 1 Comment

So I’m totally blogging cuz I kno I haven’t done it in a while. Especially since I have the Internet always a my fingertips, I should do it more often. Lol. But I gets busy.

But regarding this “not knoing wut to tlk about”….let’s just c wut happens.

So sum updates, yea it’s 2010. My vacation from work is ending, which I can’t wait to get baq to cuz this is boring me. When u get older, u definitely gain the ability to do all the things u want in really quickly and now I have time with nothing to fill it wit. …plus I miss my brother much.

Wut else?

I’ve mentally decided on pursuing my major…finally. Ive decided on teaching. ..elementary education to b exact. I kno. I kno. It’s a far change from engineering, but my job reminded me y I wanted to b a teacher in the first place. I always loved the feelin I get from makin that positive impact in a kid’s life ya kno? And I guess I too am not immune to the “luv wut u do” speech. Cuz I specifically remember me sayin that I dun care if I hate wut I do as long as I make money, I guess that changed. …cuz teachers make like no money, especially compared to engineers. But I’ll luv my life.

And yes I considered the whole “gay” thing. It’s not like I’ll b mad “out” wit my kids lol. I’m there to teach, not socialize much. Just socialize a little. Gotta make teaching fun.

Hmm… Wut else?

Oh. I settled it wit my little brother’s dad. Imma b tutoring him evry other Saturday. Both of them actually.(lol I have 2) it should b fun. I kno he’s gonna hate me during that time, cuz I’m kindof strict when it comes to my tutoring sessions. No games and u WILL understand it when I’m done. I don’t fail evr.

Ohz and one more thing b4 I leave u guys.

Imma start vlogging on my YouTube channel. (I just now had to go baq and retype “vlogging” like 5 times cuz it kept auto correcting it to a diff word. I kno “vlog” is in the dictionary now dammit) I hope I get sum interest in it. I like how I get messages about this really old vid I have on there wit me, Jason, and Adaiah in a Wendy’s. And they’re like “interesting discussion. When r u gonna make another video?”. Obviously imma enlist the help of my buddy, cuz I think he kindof unhinges my thinking side and imma need that for the filming. Don’t get me wrong, I dun wanna b like uber huge like nigahiga or kevjumba. (i dont recognize fred cuz his concept dumbs down the population much.) I wanna mix like a cross between Michael Buckley and Luanlegacy. That would b an awesome mix. Mayb throw in a little Tyler Oakley too. See? I’m already thinking of topics and evrything. This could b pulled off. I believe it will. I hope it will. Besides, if it doesn’t, I can at least say I tried.

Til next time. Stay frosty.

P.s. I kno about the smilies. I’m working on it. At least I got in a full post.

IM GONNA ATTEMPT THIS WIT MY NEW GIFT

So Christmas wasn’t so bad afterall. I got alot of things from my kids at work, which already had me in a good mood, but I also got mad stuff when I got home too. Imma try to keep this short, cuz…..omg I’m posting from my itouch! I can’t even believe it As I hold it in my hands and push the virtual buttons on the screen.

But also to round out my Christmas, i got 2 pairs of DC’s, flannel sheets(I kno unexpected. But they look so cool), and a gift card to gamestop.

Even though it started out horrible, it became so much better and I guess that tends to happy on the holidays. So I’m hopin that ur holidays were good too and I’ll catch u ppl another time.

Til next time. Stay frosty.

P.s. If u noticed I didn’t put smilies. Totally cuz I can’t so maybe I’ll edit this and add them.

AS THE YEAR’S END, WE NOTICE A YEAR OF THINGS TO BE THANKFUL FOR

Posted in: Uncategorized. Tagged: christmas, feelings, friends, home, html, lists, past, thanks, younger. Leave a comment

lol this will not b like my thanksgiving post, but more like a general feeling post. of course living another yr, ive come across things that im so happy to have recieved, things so happy to have given, ppl so happy to have met…but thats a long list to make. so ill just not. (ill put a list at the end of the post)

but wow, christmas at my dad’s house. i gotta say i ended up staying here longer than i expected. wayyy longer. and im so apprehensive to b spending christmas here. they really go all out. when i was younger, we didnt do all this. i asked 4 wut i wanted, my mom ordered it, the box sat in my room til christmas(11:59…i cheated cuz i wanted to start playin wit it on christmas and it took me about a minute to open evrythin), then i opened it and played. went to sleep and woke up in the morning and it was just another day in the house. not too frantic or anything.

here, they set up lights outside and on the lawn. decorated inside the house. wrapped gifts(also y im nervous to b here). makin a meal thingy. they go all out much. its wierd to me. mayb that might make me sound all scrouge-ish, but i havent had christmas like this since i was a kid and i kindof like it like that. this is wut happens when ur an only child and ur parent is out workin all the time. u learn to luv urself(omg. that last sentence reminded me of a paper i wrote 4 english. i think i might type it up and post it on here.).

but the gifts…omfg. i like really really hope i didnt get anything. cuz i am/was f-ing broke.(college is a bitch to my wallet) so im like wtf do i do? i dont have the money to buy gifts like that… first christmas here = cory’s fail.__ i couldnt even afford to buy myself sumthin like i usually do. at least one thing. but i did buy cards. and i came with the coolest thoughtful idea, that might make evryone happy… inside the cards, imma have like “certificates” for a specific service that imma offer to them. itll b cool, well i hope so. i dont usually “think” about buyin gifts, usually i let my money tlk 4 me. ..spoken like a tru spoiled kid.. but its tru. unless i really like u, then i get like confuzzled with wut to buy 4 u cuz i want u to really enjoy it.

but i guess this can b more genuine(icky icky deep feelings). i guess ill let u guys kno how it all turned out.

oh and of course i can always count on my mom to get me wut i want 4 christmas as always. she buyin my hard drive 4 my 360 and takin me shoppin. yaay!! i luv my 360 and i luv shoppin 4 clothes ..spoken like a tru shopaholic :cough: gay :cough: lol.. but imma have a re-christmas when i move baq home cuz i cant wait to go baq to my materialistic-ness to help shield my extreme vulnerability that i only display to a select few of my closest friends. luv u guys much.

well merry christmas to all ye readers. i luv havin u guys around cuz even though id still post without u, i feel grateful its goin into sumone’s ears …so to speak…

so til next time. stay frosty.

p.s. ive been poppin eclipse mints all day. i think im crazy.

TOTALLY BAD DAY, BUT IM TRYIN TO FOCUS ON THIS POST. MUCH.

Posted by ckashaan on December 9, 2009
Posted in: Uncategorized. Tagged: book, confucius, excerpt, library, people, principles, rules. 1 Comment

yes as it says, im just about ready to kill one of my coworkers but i had my mind focused on this post since this morning and i wanna do it b4 i get sidetracked(as do alot of my post ideas).

anyways… i borrowed a book from the library. ..from the queens public library.. titled “Confucius in 90 Minutes” it was good. i got to fill-in alot of the gaps of knowledge i had in confuciunisn(i hope i spelled that right) and it helped me adopt yet another filter with which to view my life.

but then, i try to do that when i acquire new concepts of living.

but this post is due to my fascination with an excerpt from the book i read(try to ignore the fact is says government service. its pretty universal to social interations):
———-
Chuansun Shih asked the Master: “What must i do to become a superior man and enter government service?”

“You must respect the five high qualities and abhor the four evils.”

“What are the five high qualities?”

“The superior man is gracious without accepting bribes. He works alongside people without giving cause for resentment. He has ambitions, but he is not avaricious. He is dignified, but without undue pride. He inspires respect, but is not cruel.”

“What precisely do you mean by these qualities?”

“To work for the advantage of the people, isn’t this being generous without accepting bribes? If you give the right job to the right person, who will be resentful? If a man, out of desire to fulfill himself, achieves all he is capable of-how can he be greedy? The superior man always takes on his tasks regardless of their difficulty or size, and thus is not slothful-this surely is dignity without pride? The superior man takes care about his appearance. He wears his clothes and hat in a proper manner, and treats others with respect. and owing to his serious demeanor, people have great regard for him-in this way he inspires respect without being cruel.”

“And what are the four evils?”

“To put a man to death because he has failed his task when he wasn’t given the proper instructions-this is cruelty. To expect a man to do something without proper advice-this is an outrage. To insist a man rushes to complete his task, when he has been told to perform it thoroughly-this is detrimental. To promise a reward and then begrudge paying it-this is smallmindedness.”
———-
deep huh?

well i thought so and thats was matters on MY blog lol.

u would think if ppl followed or even considered these principles, this would b a more considerate and less malintentioned(i kno its not a real world, but if u think about the parts, youll kno the meaning) world. its kinda funny cuz i subconciously follow these rules to the best of my abilities in my own life and dealings with ppl and then i read them laid out for me in a book.

mayb i have a little more chinese in me than the tiny fraction of actual genetics in my fam fam.

btw, i still wanna kill my fucking coworker who had the fucking nerve to….

another post, another time.

til next time. stay frosty.
