Houston
Well, for those of you who don't know I moved to Houston a little over a week ago and started school here at UH. It's great and I have a few friends to keep me from going completely insane from boredom. I met a girl who is really pretty and she's has the same major as I. My roommate moved out yesterday because he's from out of state and he couldn't get into his major so he didn't want to pay out of state tuition for nothing so it's reasonable, but I'm living in the dorm by myself now which is kind of cool but I bet I'll get a little lonely. I'm going to start my job at an HEB pharmacy on Sunday with a pay of $9.25/hr which is really cool. I'm taking the PCAT (Pharmacy College Admission Test) on October 20th so wish me luck for that because I'm really nervous about it. |

Houston
I didn't even want to come back to Corpus after last night's fun. I'm gonna love it when I move there and for everyone to know I will be moving to Houston on August 16th. This Sunday is my last day at work here (I'll start my new job at Houston sometime after I settle there) so if anyone wants to hang out before I leave call me. |

Racist ignorant bitch
So yesterday at work this lady calls and asks to refill her father's prescription, so I ask her for the RX number but she says she doesn't have it. Then I ask what's the name and she says something like Porifino Lopez so I'm like ok I look up Lopez and then ask for the date of birth and she tells me and I look it up and I don't find a name under Lopez and that date of birth. So, I say mam I don't have a name under that information, has he gotten a prescription filled her before? She says yes, and then starts getting frustrated and says can you not find his name it's Porifino Lopez and I say no mam I don't have a profile under that name and DOB. Then I ask her do you know you are calling HEB moore plaza pharmacy and she says in a very rude voice, "Yes, I'm hispanic so I know where I'm calling!" So I think well ok I don't see what being hispanic has to do with it, but whatever. Then she says it's PORIFINO LOPEZ and she spells it out but I tell her mam I don't have a profile under that name and DOB so I tell her to hold on so I can get somebody to help and plus I needed to take care of a customer who was there. While I'm taking care of the customer she hung up and called back and the tech answered it and started complaining and yelling about how I couldn't understand her father's hispanic name, but the tech was able to find it because the lady gave me the wrong DOB and the lady told the tech the DOB was either this day or this day but she didn't tell me that. So, then we're able to get it refilled...oh but the story does not end there because she picked it up today while I was there. When she came in one of the other techs was walking out of the pharmacy to use the restroom and the lady goes to her and asks if there was someone else who was working so they could help her and the tech was like no and the lady tells her the whole story, which made the tech mad because she needed to go to the bathroom. Then the bitch comes up to me and starts yelling at me and says there's something wrong with me because I couldn't find the damn name, and I told her that she gave me the wrong DOB and that is why I couldn't find it, but she refused to believe that of course because she's a fucking racist ignorant stupid bitch. But, what bothers me is I can't understand why she was so mad, it doesn't make any sense. Plus, this is America you can't expect everyone to know the spanish language and names. But, what was cool was the pharmacist told me I should've said well if you would've known the RX number you would not have this problem, and I know if I'd say that it would piss that bitch off but since I have the right to say it that would of been cool so I'm gonna do that next time if I have to put up with her again. Point is, don't be ignorant the world doesn't revolve around you and your culture; doesn't matter if you're white, black, hispanic, indian, chinese, etc. respect other people's culture/race and don't get upset if other people aren't familiar with yours. |

A Very Interesting Theory
Many things happen in our brains because of chemicals that are introduced into our bloodstream. These chemicals can inhibit neurotransmitter sites, perform chemical reactions, and enter our cells and cause reactions in there. It's been proven that herbicides that are used on the foods we consume can cause unusually high amounts of estrogen in men. I think they can also can cause high levels of T3 and T4 hormones which can contribute to an hyperactive thyroid. From this we can come to a couple of interesting conclusions. First, if you have a hyperactive thyroid, you will experience high irratibility and have a more aggressive behavoir. If you combine this with a Type A Behavioral System (Aggressive) this can cause a person to go over the edge. For instance, the Virginia Tech shooter may have had high levels of herbicides in his system which could have contributed to his extreme behavior - more so than violent video games, movies, etc. Second, high amounts of estrogen in men can cause unusual effects. The result can be breast growth and low sperm count. This can also account for sexual orientation. Yes, homosexuality is correlated with this. This isn't really saying that it causes homosexuality, but it could be a factor. It's interesting to think that the source of homosexuality could be from the person's diet, and to say someone is born gay could be slightly true to this theory because this person would have had the same diet all his/her life. If the person were to change their diet to something better would it help? I doubt it because it's one of those things that when it's done it's done. Anyways, I thought I'd share that interesting idea with ya. |

This is an outrage!
So that shooter kid obviously had some bad issues, but why is the spotlight on HIM? Why not the victims? The victims are the most important people of this incident! For instance, did you know that a man who survived the holocaust saved many students but it ended up costing his life? I bet some of you didn't know that because the stupid news crews aren't covering them, instead they are covering that demented fool (who yes, Todd I agree he should've gotten the proper help but was probably denied since of his race). I'd really rather hear about the victims, and let people mourn over their deaths instead of having people watch in awe at that sick child's rambling and stupid photos. |

HEB
Well, I'm no longer a cashier. I'm a PCR. Yesterday they told me that they were going to have me permanetly in the pharmacy, which is so good. |

Girl
We haven't even officially met yet but we have exchanged smiles and her flowerly expressions bring a sense of pending completion and hopeful happiness. As of now I consider her my bright red light because she is one of my few hopes to feeling joy again. Perhaps a new joy: a joy that a man rarely experiences since Gatsby's ashes are in all of our eyes. Damn that ugly green light, but what else do we have to guide us in America? And all I have is her smile and her name. If she turns out to be more than just the beautiful red light as I dearly hope for then I will be sure to tell her this when it becomes official: "You are the most beautiful woman I've ever laid my eyes upon. You have destroyed my interest in every other woman, and no one else can ever have the impact on me like you had. What we have is special and I can never share this same love with any other person on this planet." But, right now she is just a light, and regret better not extinguish the flame. |

It's true it really is
Never does it happen that one thing goes wrong; it all has to come at you full-circle. Life's a bitch that way and there's nothing you can do about it but fight back and win. |

End
I hate writing about this because I'm probably going to get teary-eyed but I know I must so here goes. My dog who I wrote about several months ago that got a tumor on his leg just passed away today. Kirby was a beautiful golden retriever and he was about nine years old when he passed. He was a very good dog; he wasn't mean or vicious against anybody. He was always excited to see someone when he or she walked through the door and he would always greet the person. I love Kirby and I know he loved me. I made his last days better by being there with him and taking him on walks everyday until he got too sick to go. I was able to say goodbye to him, since I spent time with him last night. Last night I had a funny feeling that this was it and so I had closure with him. I'm glad he's no longer suffering. May he rest in peace. |

Great Book
I had just finished The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain and I must say that that was the greatest novel I've ever read. I was supposed to read it in high school but I was lazy then and didn't have the mind that I do know to appreciate such fine literature. |

I love getting customers like these:
Today at work, the manager sent this one lady to me (I was on USCAN) to let her pay for batteries and something else. Well, she was already pissed off about her foodstamps not working (because she didn't have any money in it). And so she comes to me all pissed and tries to give me a hard time while of course I don't care because I don't pay attention. But, then she said "Ya'll can shove your food up your ass!" At first I was in shock that she said that, but when she left I started to burst out laughing and everyone was looking at me funny. Bitchy customers bring excitement to work. |

Racist, Offensive, Obscene, and Hilarious
Borat. I saw it today with Gary, it was a really funny movie. But, there were parts were I was like oh I wish he did not do that (But in order to enjoy the movie you gotta get over that). |

Kirby: A turn for the better?
For some reason...it may just be wishful thinking but it appears as though the bump on his leg is going down. He is able to walk now. And so today I did 2 things with Kirby that I thought I would never do again: I gave him a bath and I took him for a walk. I was so thankful and glad that I could do that again. I promised him that I would take him for another walk tomorrow. |

Kirby
I have a good dog. I got him when I was in the 6th grade and I remember bringing him home for the first time. I watched him grow up and be a pain in the ass when he would always take things like socks and run around the house with them. He was a very friendly dog...a little too friendly. I love him. But, just this week he got a big tumor on his hind leg. He isn't able to walk very well and all he does now is sleep. Just last week he was fine, I gave him a bath and he was running around just fine...this happened so sudden. I looked up what he might have and it said he might have another month in him. I'm going to miss Kirby. |

This friggen week! The good and the bad
This past week has been a pain but some parts were good so here's the good and the bad: The bad: I feel like I never get a break, I'm always having to stress about something for school or work. This past week I got Friday-Sunday off of work but I had to study my brains out for an Organic Chemistry test for Monday. I spent the good parts of Saturday and Sunday to study for that test and I got a major headache from it. That same class had 2 tests this week: one on Monday and one today (Wednesday), but one was for lecture and the other for lab. I took the lecture test on Monday and the lab test today, and I just didn't study enough for the lab test and I think I screwed it up pretty bad (I'm not expecting anything higher than a D on that test). We got red tide in today and it got me a bit sick. Speaking of not feeling well my back was killing me all last week and now it's my right hand (specifically my knuckles, they feel really sore) I'm sure I need to stop popping my knuckles but it's a habit I can't break. This weekend is going to be rough because I work everday and all day (I wonder if I'm going to get time to my homework) Oh well, at least there were some good things that came out of everything. The good: The intense studying on the weekend for the lecture test paid off really well as I got a 97 on it. That bumped my average to a boarderline A, so I just need to stick with that intense study habit I made. Thankfully, the lecture part of the class counts for 3 credit hours and the lab counts for 1 credit hour so doing bad in lab won't hurt my GPA as much as doing bad in lecture. But, I have been getting good lab grades. In all my other classes I can get an easy A since it's just Calculus 1, Gov't, and Speech. I asked out this one girl on a date and yes I used the word DATE when I asked her out, and she gladly accepted. We haven't setup a time and date, but I'm sure it'll go well. All I can say right now is that I seriously need a vacation. I need to relax because I'm just too stressed out right now. Eh, it'll pay off in good time...good time. |

So much to do and so little time
So my plan is to become a pharmacist and make some good money that way. It'll work out alright I'm sure. But, something has been bugging me. Just a pharmacist? I mean it's a good paying job and all but you don't work like a madman doing that job, I don't know of any famous pharmacists. That's ok with me, what I'm saying is that I want to be more than just a pharmacist. I want to be alot. I want to experience many things and do many outstanding things. I want to be the first to do something. I want to travel and see the most amazing sites to be found on earth. I want to cook a damn good meal. I want to build a big house. I want to marry a beautiful and intellegent woman and have and raise a big family (like 5-8 kids, seriously). I want to write a best selling novel. I want to paint a masterpiece. I want to write and perform a song that moves people. I want to act and make a movie. I want to be a sharpshooter like a good sniper or something but for hunting and recreation of course. I want to save lives. I want to meet many people and have many many friends. I want to love and be loved by many many more. I have so many dreams and so little time. I only live once and that's what I'm going to do...I'm going to live. |
