Walks are good for you

Walks are good for you, or any physical exercise for that matter, they can help clear you mind if things are troubling you, they can refresh you, and they can make you feel better. I suppose its due to the endorphins and stuff, but walks can help you if things are bothering you.

I just got back from a midnight stroll and I feel quite refreshed. Also my walk helped to clear my mind on some things that have been troubling me lately. My walk helped me because I was able to think about all the things that are troubling me and try to think of ways of solving them. Most of my troubles that have been bothering me I've found some sort of solutions to fix them, however there is one thing that's still bothering me. Hopefully, talking about it with someone will help it.


I especially like walks during cold weather because they help in the "refreshing" aspect of walks. Also the transition from the cold outdoors back to the warm indoors feels nice too. Oh yeah, walks are even better if there are other people with you. So anyone wanna go take a midnight stroll with me? j/k j/k, but walks can be even more enjoyable if someone else is there walking with you. Alright thats all for now. Later

Ranting

Have you ever been mad/angry/frustrated with the way you acted at one particular moment. Lately, I've been thinking about my behavior in the past and to me it seems that I acted like a fool/jerk/idiot. Thinking back to my past experiences and stuff is kind of like watching a movie, and you know those people who shout out comments to the screen/tv, well I kinda feel like that. Except I'm shouting comments to myself in my head at how stupid of me it was to act that way and stuff. Argh...sometimes I piss myself off the way I behave. I really wish that I could change myself so that I can act more appropiately in that moment. I'm amazed that people have the patience to put up with me. I should thank those people who've put up with me. Thanks guys for putting up with me when I behave like a jerk/fool/idiot. I'm just ranting because my walk failed to clear my mind of this, but I'm fine now.

Friends

I guess for this post I'll reflect upon friends. I probably may have mentioned this topic in a previous post, but meh...

Friends... are they people you know, people who know you? To me friends mean that they are people who you can depend upon, trust, turn to for advice, and have fun hanging out. I always enjoy hanging out with my friends. If I did not have friends I probably would be left all alone and be very sad and depressed. So a big thank you goes out to the people who are my friends. Oh yeah, true friends have special bonds that they share between one another. Though it may not be obvious, but there is at least some sort of bond that forms between friends. It is these bonds that help keep these friends in touch with one another after they separate. The bonds that form between friends cannot be broken, it may weaken but it won't break. Here's a poem I wrote about the bonds between friends. Hope you enjoy!

Bonds
By
Marcus Wong

We all came together
From all over and between us sparked
A friendship that would last forever.
However this is only the start.

On our trek through this life
The road before us is fraught with obstacles.
We readily stand united against these strifes
To hang together through thick and thin.

Although life is full of suffering and pain.
All alone we are fragile,
That pain causes everyone and so strains
The group in which we hang.

No matter the paths we take
The bonds of friendship we share will never break.
They may get stronger or weaker
But we will always be there for each other.

Meh...

Hmmm...just some random stuff that I was thinking about while I was on my walk last night.

-That taking walks can really help clear ones mind.
-How even though people may say that they are looking out for others they are unable to do that all the time because one can easily become distracted and neglect others.
-Why when I take short naps for 20-30mins why I have very weird dreams, yet when I sleep for 6-8 hours I don't even remember my dreams.
-That friends are there to help each other no matter how much they get on your nerves.

I think that's probably all the stuff that I thought about while on my walk. I never really thought that taking a walk would help clear my mind until I actually tried it. After my walk I felt pretty good. People should take walks to help them if they are frustrated/mad/sad/etc, because I think that it would help.

Nice Guy

Gonna take a short break from writing my paper to reflect upon stuff...

The "nice guy" or nice people in this world, they always seem to finish last. I suppose the reason for this is that they try to take care of other people's problems with no regard of their own. Although from some of my observations there are barely any nice people here in this world. Everyone seems to be so caught up in their own lives that they do not even care about other people. It seems that this world is full of mean people.

For example a while ago when I was going to the doctor with my mom I looked over into the next car and I see this black guy. I sort of stared into space in his general direction, so I guess he got pissed and he flicked me off. He did this why? Because I was bothering him? Or was he being mean just because I was staring at him. Anyways my response to him was just a wave as we passed by him.

Whatever happened to a wave back or a smile. Oh well, this reflection/rant must seem very ridiculous to my readers of my blog. Meh...that's why I write to rave, rant, or reflect. Back to the subject. I suppose the reason why there aren't any more nice people out in the world is because its human nature to be selfish. So that we only care about our own agendas and interest. I even find myself acting selfish because I try to accomplish my agenda/goals. Despite my efforts to try to be a nice guy. So I don't know if I truely am a nice guy. Oh well, I guess I'll do my best to help others and to be there for my friends and to exercise common courtesy. This may seem like bs, but I do try to do those things to the best of my abilities.

Stuff

So many things have been going through my head, but I'll only post one thing that's kinda been bothering me. I dunno, but I still kinda see myself as a loner/shy guy despite getting to know a lot of people in my hall. Which I find quite surprising, me a shy guy getting to know new people in college. Reminds me a lot about Naruto and how friends fill the void in your life, but what happens when everyone seems to disappear from you for a moment. Are you then consumed by the darkness of the void? I don't know exactly, but at times I have felt alone. Although, you guys don't have to worry, cuz I don't feel like that all the time only few times I've felt alone. Friends, are the people whom you know you can trust, people you can count on, people to help you out, and to just overall hang out with. So I thank everyone who's been my friend. Thanks everyone. :D


Hmmmmm....I guess for those of you who want to see my halloween pics I guess I'll have to try to print them out or something. Since I'm still kinda new to the whole online journal stuff.

Edit: A special thank you goes to Sami for taking the Halloween pics for me and sending me them.

Writer's Block

Writer's block....we all get it when we're writing our english essays. And when we get it, doesn't it just piss you off. Since you're trying to write and you can't write anymore and despite all your efforts you can't think of anything. I guess I'm ranting about writer's block because I'm having so much difficulty in writing my next poem. For those of you who didn't know I write poetry. Argh...I have it all planned out, but I just don't know how to put it down onto paper. It's driving me crazy because I have so little time to try to write my poem because most of my time is taken up doing hw, writing papers, studying for tests/quizes. I guess I'm just frustrated that the thing that I enjoy doing has gotten difficult that its hard to enjoy it. Oh well, as soon as I'm able to write it I'll be alright. I think that should be enough for my rant.

Oh yeah...I'll try to see if I can post my halloween picture of me as a generic anime character.
