IamBelmin http://iambelmin.com This is my weblog Mon, 07 Apr 2008 22:52:33 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 en People I dislike http://iambelmin.com/posts/people-i-dislike.html http://iambelmin.com/posts/people-i-dislike.html#comments Mon, 07 Apr 2008 22:52:33 +0000 Belmin http://iambelmin.com/posts/people-i-dislike.html heart-hate.jpg

I don’t hate people. Although I am a not necessarily an extrovert, I consider myself a social and people loving person. I do, however, dislike some people:

  • People who walk slow
  • Judgmental people
  • Red Sox fans
  • Ignorant people
  • Hard-headed people
  • Anyone from Boston

There’s a few (dis)honorable mentions (people who still support Hillary, typical politicians, Red Sox players, Red Sox management, etc.) but that list could go on and on.

Working and taking 16 credits has taken a toll on me. Bulleted update:

  • Had a pretty fun birthday weekend thanks to all my family and friends.
  • My best friend Steven moved to Miami so no more roaddog
  • When you’re as busy as I am, I have concluded that singlehood is the way to go.
  • Calculus still sucks!
  • Luckily: All my other courses are actually very interesting.
  • Unfortunately: Interesting does not mean easy and not time consuming.

Semester over in the end of May. Then back to partying, relaxing and enjoying my great friendships (sans Steve-o though hopefully he’ll visit in the summer) for a couple of months.

Till then…

Started of by spending Friday’s over at the upper west side. Got nice off 50 cent beers at Burbon St. and partied away at 420. Put up some pictures on facebook. Most of the crew was out (yep, even Iris, Aisha and Janira came out).

Tonight, I’ll probably end up somewhere just not sure yet.

Sunday, I’ll find a place to watch the Giants game.

Then, next Friday school begins again. I’m nervous about the upcoming 2 semesters (hopefully my final 2) but I am as ready as I’ll ever be.

First: I’m sure some of you have seen that Optimum Triple Play reggaeton commercial. Seems like I am not the only one who finds it annoying yet semi-entertaining. For those of you who haven’t seen it, check it out on YouTube.

Kind of 13 days too late but here’s 5 things I hope to accomplish in 2008:

Seems like I might be graduating December 2008. However, it’s going to be tough. To be able to graduate in December 2008, I’ll have to break a couple of the rules I set for myself after my disappointing beginning of my college career:

  1. Taking more than 4 courses in a semester.
  2. Taking more than 1 math course in a semester.

On the other hand, I just want to finish. I have been doing surprisingly well since going back to school 2 years ago. I have to thank my friends and fam for their support.

Also, I don’t want to have to pay for another semester of classes. Hopefully this doesn’t backfire.

I expect to have a lacking social life for 2008 but that just means that 2009, it’s on!

I’m glad I have so many reliable people in my circle of friends. If there’s one thing I dislike is last-minute changes of plan. I pride myself on coming through on the norm–or at the very least being upfront about not being able to make it. If I say I’ll be there, for the most part, I’ll be there. My dudes like Steve, Gamal and Kenny rarely let me down.

On the other hand, I have others who are always backing out on plans to go out and about. Granted many people come across unforeseen issues but in a half-jokingly rant:

While some people are trying to upgrade their DVD collection to some high-definition media (ie, Gamal and his blu-ray fascination), I am still trying to obtain my ideal collection.

Personally, I am not a DVD “collector“—not only because I currently don’t have the economic means of being one but because I rarely come across a film I would want to see again. However, there are some films I feel are “must-haves”.
