Washroom Dangers

I was using a urinal the other day. One guy had finished his business and walked away. This was three urinals away. The urinal activated its automatic flushing system. Water gushed right out of the urinal flooding the floor. I don't think the guy using the faulty urinal knew his urinal was flooded.

Luckily I was far enough away to avoid the flood. The guy in the stall next to that urinal was not so fortunate. Fortunately, a few people gave the guy in the stall some paper towels to clean himself up.

Wow. What a crazy day in the washroom.

Tactical Offence

Lately I have been busy with my newest blog. It's called Tactical Offence.

This new blog focuses more on my thoughts regarding martial arts. One day, I would like to create my own mixed martial arts system. Hopefully I will get there. 

Check out my new blog here and tell me what you think

Resumes

It's not really your resume itself that I care about, nor what you've done, but rather how you are going to benefit me and benefit society. If you cannot answer that simple question, I do not know what to say.

Fats vs Carbs

Do you know how people can shed like ten pounds in two weeks? They are not actually shedding fat, but rather are shedding water weight.

Let's say someone decides to eat less carbohydrates and sugars for two weeks. If you studied Biochemistry, you'll know that carbs retain more water than fats. So, if you consume less carbs, you retain less water, and therefore your weight goes down. Fats don't retain as much water as carbs.

This is also why fats are such good energy storages. They store energy and prevent you from getting bloated from water. 

Composition of the Undead

My hands race across the piano
Many regrets, many pains, many sorrows
I play my piano once more, hoping to relieve my torture

My hands pick at the guitar
I lost everything to my gambles and gambits
I play my guitar once more, hoping to never make the same mistake

My hands hold the drumsticks and bang out a beat
It would be nice to live once more
I play my drum once more, cause its the only thing I do

Our hands play music because that seems to be the only message everyone understands
We lost many things in our lives
We play our instruments once more, hoping others do not make the same mistake we did.

A Man or a Boy

Sometimes I make really dumb mistakes. I beat myself over it. But hey, on the bright side, I haven't made the same mistake twice. 

Sometimes I feel tired. I feel too tired to care because I felt that its time to pass on the work to the next generation. But hey, on the bright side, at least I have built a foundation for the younger generation to build upon.

Sometimes I wonder whether I am a man, or if I'm still a boy. I do things only to wonder or complain about it afterwards. I eventually come to an agreement with myself. 

It makes me wonder. Sometimes my body language says that I'm tired and old, but on the inside, I still have a fire going. Other times, I look serious and confident, but trembling with fear and excitement on the inside. I can't say which is better.

Are you a boy with a heart of a man, or a man with a heart of a boy?

What is a Music Video?

I see a ton of bad music videos. So much that it makes me wonder how the singer in the music video feels when he or she makes that video. I thought about what makes a good music video. I narrowed it down to one point:

 A story 

Having a background to the lyrics of the song or the music itself can help the listener understand why the song was composed in the first place. The story does not have to be outrageously creative. It can be a simple love story. What is most important is that there is something to enhance the message of the song. If all we see are bling bling boys and glittery glossy girls dancing the whole five minutes of the song, I don't feel anything for that song. This does not mean dancing is prohibited, but rather the dancing needs to have some purpose to it.
