Other Experiment

This time around I am testing the hyperlink directly from my Windows Live Writer. Naturally, I had to think of what link to post so I came up with Heroes since it’s coming on in about 15 minutes.

Testing from my Windows Live Writer program

I am no whiz at this thing so I hope this program doesn’t screw up my original blog site settings from my dashboard. Let’s see now….*pressing return to post this entry*

Testing a photo post here. This one is from several weeks ago, the mommy bothering her cat as she tries to take her 56th cat nap of the day.

The Return of Zokeev!

Here I am pondering about going back to blogging or/& also to start vlogging as well. I am still debating within myself on what topics I should focus on & what projects to share with you on my blog site. More to come. Stay tuned.

whats my dosha

Your Dosha is Kapha

Calm and grounded, you are not prone to mood swings or anger. However, once you do get angry, it takes a lot to cool you down. You tend to think a little slower than most people, but your logic is astounding. Overall, you very loyal and trustworthy. You're not scared of being who you really are. With friends: You enjoy their company, but often listen more than talk In love: You crave connection and affection. It's hard for you to be single. To achieve more balance: Exercise vigorously (especially in the sun) and let go of attachments.

What's Your Dosha?

of course

You Are an Excellent Cook

You're a top cook, but you weren't born that way. It's taken a lot of practice, a lot of experimenting, and a lot of learning. It's likely that you have what it takes to be a top chef, should you have the desire...

Are You A Good Cook?

again on the money!

You Are Sunset

Even though you still may be young, you already feel like you've accomplished a lot in life. And you feel free to pave your own path now, and you're not even sure where it will take you. Maybe you'll pursue higher education in a subject you enjoy - or travel the world for a few years. Either way, you approach life with a relaxed, open attitude. And that will take you far!

What Time Of Day Are You?

oh, right on the money!

You Are Surrealism

Dreamy and idealistic, you've created a world that is all your own. It's very likely that you've either dabbled in drugs or are naturally trippy. You are always trying to push beyond the boundaries of your culture and society. You believe that art, love, and freedom can change the world.

What Art Movement Are You?

my heart left me and went to san francisco

You Belong in San Francisco

You crave an eclectic, urban environment. You're half California, half NYC. You're open minded, tolerant, and secretly think you're the best. People may dismiss you as a hippie, but you're also progressive, interesting, and rich!

Where Does Your Inner Californian Belong?

danke schoen

Your Inner European is Dutch!

Open minded and tolerant. You're up for just about anything.

Who's Your Inner European?

I'll tell anyone whose heart can comprehend

(this song is by janet jackson)

Shot like an arrow through my heart
That's the pain I feel
I feel whenever we're apart
Not to say that I'm in love with you
But who's to say that I'm not
I just know that it feels wrong,
When I'm away too long
It makes my body hot, so let me tell ya baby

Chorus:
I'll tell your mama, I'll tell your friends
I'll tell anyone
Whose heart can comprehend
Send it in a letter baby
Tell you on the phone
I'm not the kinda girl
Who likes to be alone
I miss ya much (boy-oh-I miss you much)
I really miss you much (M-I-S-S you much)
I miss ya much (boy-oh-I miss you much)
Baby I really miss you much (M-I-S-S you much)

I'm rushing home
Just as soon as I can
I'm rushing home to see
Your smiling face
And feel your warm embrace
It makes f-feel so g-g-g good
So I'll tell you baby

Repeat Chorus

I miss you much
I really really miss you
you much
I miss you much
I'm not ashamed to tell the world
I miss you

Repeat Chorus

war. what is it good for?

yesterday, over a glass of wine outside on our 2nd floor balcony, discussing with my mother about how people have not learned a thing for about 8 to 10 thousand of years that war does not solve anything. *sigh* and we are stuck on the same planet with them. how frustrating.

Being a part of the Deaf ripple

well, it's my first week at my new job. it has been an interesting experience so far. 3 days a week, i work with kindergartern and 2 days a week, i take over english class with jrhs and hs. finally, i get to taste what it is like to work at a school setting, especially with deaf kids. i am still getting to know to my students from both catagories, elementary and secondary. gotta learn their tendencies fast so i can prevent it from happening again. it is trying, though. you know, i'm the new faculty and they are anxious to play with me. standard intitation, i guess. right?

today, i got to have the chance to say my thanks to greg hlibok for what he had done for the deaf community. my boss was showing him around at our school. tonight, they had a speech to present at phoenix college regarding dpn's truimph. i could not go because if i did, i would arrive back home at like 12am. so, forget it. some another time will do.

i was glad to have greg hlibok in "my" classroom at that moment instead of having to wait for my chance in another 12 years or so to formally chat with him briefly. now, i can check that off from my list of "important things to do before i die".

To be wired or not to be wired? And adding this, to share or not to share?

We are so spoiled with wireless technology. Right now, I am going thank goddess for this wireless laptop, both power and internet. It got me wondering what if one day we all will say, whatever happened to the good old fashioned wires that makes us sit still and stay in one place and no wonder people developed adhd and went off thinking up wirelessness in order to stay moving.

Just like thinking about whatever happened to good old fashioned art of letter writing that is delivered by snail mail into actual "inboxes"; nah, thank goddess for e-mails. Hm.

I eat crap. You eat crap. We all eat crap. I have a button that I just, today actually, adhered to my purse that says "Two words America: Portion Control". Really, look at us all. In the high percentage, we all have some flabby tissues. I am so concerned about America's falling health. It's funny, I read that there are so many Americans who are very health-conscious, but yet America has a weight and health problems.

After few attempts with struggle pinning that button on my purse, a memory had a chance to be reflected in me head. I recalled the time when I was in London. During a dinner party, it was at the end of my first week or beginning of my second week there, I was continuiously meeting new people at that party at my friend's flat where I was staying at. Of course, they make a face when they learn that I am an American. Not a great face most of the time, I might add.
There was this guy who was kinda loud as in arrograt. He and I chatted some. While we were, few people (who I made fast friends with) who walked through physically undisturbing our conversation, but I caught them eyeballing me to hint at me to watch out for him and they were whispering at me with low signs (in BSL) telling me that he can be an asshole. I heard them loud and clear. So, I let the converstaion between the guy and I just flow by. At one point, I sat down on the couch in the living room. The food were being plated on the coffee table. It was a buffet party. The guy semi-announced to the people in the living room that I am an American. I saw that as an unimportant part because of the way he said it which made me feel on the spot. You know when a deaf person sees you on the bus and come up to you and say, "hey you deaf? im deaf too!" with a dumb smile painted on and you are left wityh just nodding back not wanting to intiate any converstation with that person because you weren't up to it with a total deaf stranger. Yeah, that feeling. Anyway, he started to pick up the platters off the coffee table and carried maybe 2 of them to me offering me some bites. I said no with some awkwardness because this was weird. For some reason, I knew it wasn't because he was being polite helping out serving. When I said "No, Thanks" with a smile to the platters, he made a startling, surprised face and put the platters down back on the coffee table to sign to me, "but you are american!" I didn't understand what he meant by that and I was so puzzled by the remark. He lost me there. He continued with "When I chat with you, I think in my head when I look at you and am surprised that you are small and thin. Americans always eat and eat. Right? They are so big and fat. So I thought you wanted to eat and I bring you platters for you." I was taken aback by that. In some ways, I felt insulted for my American people. But he was right. Americans are real bad with food nowadays. The way he said it was with no class anyway so that made the whole thing look bad for me. It was just a whoa moment.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later that night, more of us were getting friendlier due to poisoning ourselves with liquid toxins, the guy and I chatted again. This time, along with his few deaf buddies from Leeds, I forgot how our conversation got led to the 9/11 topic. We started discussing about that. I forget the details. They asked me how I felt about it and I replied with my true feelings on the tragedic storm. Somehow, the debate got esclacted into unnecessary comments such like they joked about that what if it happens in London and that how there was no way it would because they are "neutral" compared to America because "we" are so egoistical about military and war and nuclear powers and money. They laughed as they joked about it. I was standing with a stoic face. I was hurted by it and I certainly let them see how it disrespected me. The only one who was left laughing last was that guy. Because the other guys had some sense to stop once they realized that it wasn't funny when I pointed out that it can happen to anyone and that not everyone in USA are not into war and that Bush is. They apologized to me except that guy. And look what happened in their tubes last year. I would not wish that on my worst enemy if I even had one. But I could not help it and not think about that ganged-up converstaion regarding any bombings in other countries. I do wonder what they thought and felt during the bombings in the tubes in London on their land. All I could do was just go, oh wow, weird, for only one second and then it all changes to compassion for everyone over there.

I guess we gotta, unfortunately, share the same planet as we learned in kidergartner and that is to share.
