Indian American Love Child

Okay real quick i must remind myself to blog about the National Geographic article on the drought in Australia!! I have some time to kill, so i must as well spend the getting some stuff off my chest. So I want to know what is up with some songs that come out now-a-days. Some of it is pure shit. A perfect example is the song "blame it on the al-al-al-alcohol"! That song is being blasted everywhere i go, and the worst part about it.. i actually caught myself singing the song the other day. This crap plays on so many mainstream radio stations. Over the weekend i was driving back from Boston and this song came on the radio no less than ten times. My issue isn't really with the song, i mean sure it is a retarded song, but hello there have been many of those. My issue is that the target audience for this song can be quite young. I mean if i catch my ten year old cousin singing this i am going to have an issue with that. Blame it one the alcohol- is that really the message we re...

So moving right along with yesterday's post... the next thing on the agenda... 'my sister's friend is a HO'. yes you heard me correctly. Let me provide some background information. My sister is a junior in high school. She goes to fairly decent school, and lives in a relatively well off town. Her friends pretty much come from wealthy/ decently well off families. They all have parents who are decently involved in their son's/daughters lives. Pretty much these teens (though i prefer to call them children) have the world at their fingertips. And yet i cannot stand most of my sister's friends, especially the female ones. Now i know it is a bit harsh of me to judge these girls so harshly, i really can't help myself... its my own personal prejudice. It does not help that they hang out and in turn influence my younger sister. I love my sister dearly, more so than any other person in my life. I love her, and therefore want the best for her. She is so brilliant, tale...

So today i have much to talk about, much to vent about!!! I am going to make a list so that even if i don't get to it all today I will remember to talk about it later! -cross cultural psychology- schools and racism -my sister's friend is a HO -children/ music/ messages -older men/ guys and their attitude toward women -my partying/ lifestyle habits -new music i am excited about! Okay let me begin.... Today in my cross-cultural psychology class we had a very interesting and equally infuriating conversation. The question/ topic we began our discussion with was basically this: What accounts for the disparity in academic achievement among races/ are some races smarter than others/ what race do you think of when you think when you think of someone who is smart in math. The class as a majority choose Asians and Indians as the people that are most likely to excel in mathematics (i choose Russians / Germans ). We started discussing what might set apart the different races. We mostly...

I received acceptance into Ross Medical school in the islands, and it feels good. It feels good to know i have a back up plan at the very least. My future is not totally in the dumps. wooohoo more posts and happier ones at that! i can reflect on other things once again!!
