My GQ Status

This right here...is strictly for the fellas!

Today's topic is about Hygiene. Fellas, no girl wants a guy going around with no style or should I say "swag" (no fence). Today, I am going to tell you how to be confident and have some color in your life. If you don't agree well then I will accept that but I will guarantee some tips that will boost your man-hood.

I am only 20 years old of course and taking notes from me is probably a foolish thing but I do understand how getting turned down and having no sense of taste in many things. I will not lie to you, so I will tell you straight up about myself. I am a metro sexual who not only cares about fashion and myself, but I do care about my education, my hobbies in drawing, cooking, writing poetry, making people laugh, playing sports, adventurous, dancing, family oriented, a loving brother, son, and a tremendous boyfriend! NOW THAT IS SEXY!

Here are a few tips I would like to give you guys:

1. Take a shower!!! No women likes to be around a bad odor! trust me, women just keep it in their mind and are afraid to say anything!

2. After taking a shower, make sure you apply old spice deodorant, rub on some lotion all over your body (I prefer girl lotion; but not too girly), trim your nails, finally apply face lotion.

3. Wear something comfortable. I hate to say it but having nice clothes does present well to others and that's what catches the attention first! I will continue my fashion tips on clothing later!

4. Try to be more outgoing with your personality. Break out from your shell and try to greet people more, show your smile to others, clean out your mess, look in the mirror more often and check yourself out, take a girl out, flirt more; basically...MAN UP!

5. Have some common sense for a guy! go out and learn how to change a tire, cook up a great meal, build a cabinet, clean and organize your stuff, just go and work on something that will benefit your needs in the long run.

6. Go to school, work, and dont be lazy!!! Men have to hustle up and bring the money home.

That's all for right now but I will post another blog up about stuff just for this topic. I will bring out new things on my blog to keep it going! thanks guys, hope you'll benefit from this somehow or another!

Hunt for an Internship

Today I woke up and started my day with my morning chores (Always do!). After I did that, I was suppose to go to BJ's restaurant with a bunch of people I knew back in HS, but then it turns out that the plan was a fake -_- So anyways, as I was upstairs in my room, I began to think about my future and my priorities! I logged onto my laptop and automatically visited different sites for hospitals around the area.

You see, I am trying to become a nurse and trying to find an internship somewhere that relates to my field. I come across a couple hospitals in mind, so I got dressed up, skipped lunch, and went to start my hunt! I first went across the street to this new clinic that was built in Sunnyvale. I waited and waited and even searched around for someone to help me but there was nothing...kinda weird huh?! anyways, I spoke to this lady and she just informed me to get info at the valley med hospital on Bascom. I then drove to Kaiser in Santa Clara to look for some opportunities. I wanted to aim for the ICU and speak to a nurse whether I could intern in the summer but she told me to check with the medical office across the hospital; She wished the best for me though and she had hope for me :) I stopped over at the office and suddenly the manager had gone for lunch :/ I had missed it by a bullet...so then I waited for about 30 mins but someone had just told me to come back. I snook in her office and took her business card and office card so that I would be content at least.

I finally went and tried the volunteer office where I can possibly help out during the summer and throughout the year just to get some experience and a certificate of proof to back me up. :)
I am not done yet though, I have to keep trying to get an internship somewhere! Today is just day 1 and I will keep going further.

-As of right now, I am going to contact the medical office and consult with whoever to find a spot. wish me luck! I will let you guys know what happened, but until then....

Nip/Tuck

So in the beginning of my winter break, my gf and I went to Blockbuster to buy some movies just because the place was gonna shut down. My gf had bought Nip/Tuck seasons 1-3! At first I was skeptic and overwhelmed but then little did I know that part of my vacation would be mostly about coffee and Nip/Tuck!! haha!

My gf and I started watching the episodes one after another throughout the whole week. We finally finished it in about 3 and a half weeks!! pretty good for just watching a 3 episodes a day!

Then my gf had left to Berkeley because school had started and I wanted to continue watching them online since I don't have the rest of the seasons :/ Btw, I do recommend (tvshack.net) for people who want to watch online movies or tv shows :)

As of right now, I am on episode 7 on season 4! I have to catch up asap! These last few shows were getting juicy!!!

;)

p.s. Make me beautiful....

Make me........
Perfect soul
Perfect mind
Perfect face
A perfect life

5 Different Flavors of Peets Coffee

5 Different World's

During my Winter break, My girlfriend and I have been going to Peet's Coffee! I wanted to try something more coffee-like tasting rather than plain old Starbucks. I wanted to start a new trend for myself by trying 5 different flavored coffees from 5 different countries all over the world! Here is the list:

-Arabian Mocha Jive

-Guatamala

-Ethiopia

-New Guinea

-French Roast

My personal favorite is the Arabian Mocha because it has a cocoa taste with a light nutty flavor and a soft mocha twist! its amazing!!!

My next thing to do is try 5 different freddo's from Peet's Coffee

Winter Break

Im gonna keep this simple and short. This break was awesome! during this break, I got hooked into coffee and watching Nip-Tuck! My gf and I went to a couple places but mostly made it cozy by just relaxing :) I have tried 4 different coffees from 4 different countries, I went to SF and had The Coffee Bean, learned how to make the famous hot cocoa from Christmas in the Park and watched movies! it was a warm one but lightened by thrill!

French Brie, Chardonnay, Bread, Italian Sausage

Yesterday, my girlfriend and I went out to Whole Foods, to purchase creamy French Brie with Bread...we ended up having a beautiful picnic out on the lot of Saratoga Park. We broke pieces of bread and laid Brie and fruit jam to blend a sweet bite!! yumm was it great! then we toasted our bottles of chardonnay! the Italian sausage was juicy and was packed with sweet spices. This experience made me want to go to France someday...People have got to try this out with their loved one; its a simple yet fulfilling lunch!!! TRY IT!
