the home of the free

So I watched Sex and the City 2, just because I wanted to. I realized that I just take some things for granted like having freedom as a woman in a country. It's horrible to see that many women in other countries do not enjoy the freedom we take for granted. Why is the world warring against women? Do they not realize that we are your mothers? If not your sisters or wives? What we need is a place that promotes women's rights and liberties can we make such a country? It sure doesn't exist in U.S. there are still glass ceilings at work. Is there a country for women? If not I wish I could make one where there are laws that benefit women.

being weird

So I just was lethargic half an hour ago I just wanted to snuggle and sleep even though I had slept for 8 hours but when I got up and cleaned my apt (it really needed to be cleaned) I got all this energy and now I don't feel tired anymore it's the weirdest thing. I guess I need to do things in order not to feel lethargic. I will prevail and also I feel loads better after I have done things. The best part is sharing food with neighbors :)

My Heart and Soul

So I have been doing a lot of thinking. I am going to allow the universe to do what it wants if I am not going to be a psychologist then be it so. However I feel that I do have to defend it to some point as I believe that I really can help people. This is not about how much I will make or what I will do but more about how many people can I reach out to. What can I do to help them? How can I be of service to people and create a better life. I want to be like Dr. Wayne Dyer, I just love how he has incorporated the spiritual life with his everyday life. I think I just found my mentor :)

in this day and age

who do you know that blasts classical music and loves listening to it. Who believes in keeping their culture's values and traditions, who doesn't care about they way they are dressed (except for interviews and such), who doesn't want about alcohol and drugs. Me...I do all these things I believe in myself and I know I am so capable of doing bigger and better things. I am the one who's holding myself down.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” By Marianne Williamson from A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles

My goals

so today I was thinking what I was going to do if things didn't quite go my way. I am so scared that if I don't do well in my class I won't get to be a psych major anymore but then I remembered that if that is so what's the worst that can happen? I have to change my major and start again, so it'll take more time but I will figure it out. Here are some things that I want to do

  1. graduate with a 3.0 or better
  2. get into a grad school
  3. teach classes
  4. go scuba diving
  5. go backpacking (anywhere)
  6. visit European countries
  7. go to India again
  8. defend myself and make my family realize I am an adult
  9. have confidence around my family
  10. learn to be sharper and better
  11. get an A in any major class
  12. get a letter of recommendation
  13. get an internship
  14. get a part time job
