Carne Asada Wishes and Philosophical Dreams

Here are my top fives of the moment:

5) I freakin' miss SoCal so much! It's like a drug, and I'm having withdrawals (metaphorically speaking). On Monday, I looked on Yelp on where I can find carne asada fries in Vallejo. Technically speaking, NorCal does have carne asada fries. They're pretty good, however, they're not the same as the fries in SoCal. I came close. There was a taco truck that sold cheese and steak fries for $5. I went there and bought the fries. I was terribly disappointed. All it was was fries with sour cream, white cheese, and carne asada. That's it. There wasn't even guacamole sold on the side in the truck. The sour cream wasn't even dolloped on there as well; it was squirted on. I felt cheated! Cheated I tell you!

Well, during my research, I learned that carne asada fries is particularly a Southern California specialty. To be more specific, a San Diego specialty. Sooo...I guess my theory on the more north you go, the more the fries suck is actually true. Also, the Mexican food in NorCal is probably from a different region of Mexico compared to the SoCal style of Mexican food. Our burritos in NorCal have a lot more "filler" (beans, rice, veggies) compared to the burritos in SoCal (usually it's 95% meat a.k.a. my kind of burrito).

4) I applied to a lab tech job at Solano Community College. Job applications would not usually be a part of my top five. However, this job sticks out because they are paying ten to twelve thousand more when I compare doing the exact same thing at UCI. It's crazy to think about really.

3) The Office season premier is coming in I believe a couple of weeks. I am freakin' excited for many reasons. Last season's finale had just left way too many questions that needs to be answered this upcoming season. I really like the fact that Holly is now in the mix of things! Where did she come from, seriously?!

2) One word guys...Economy. Everything's so crazy right now in Wall Street. What does this mean to every American? Hmmmm...nothing...at least not yet. Unless you are directly connected to these huge finance corporations and everything related to it (working in those newspaper stands, fancy restaurants, high luxury shops, etc.) or if for some reason you are looking for a loan, you're pretty in the shits. However, in terms of us young people and finding jobs, it's not completely bad, at this point. The hope is that things become better for the coming year. If not...Well, another great depression isn't bad I guess. I'm being sarcastic with that last statement.

1) I've been reading here and there these last few weeks. The last book I've "finished" was Why is God Laughing? by Deepak Chopra. I've finished the book. It's really an easy read. However, it poses a lot of deep ideas and philosophies. In fact I will write a separate blog about this.

Well, there's my top five for now. I will leave you off with three riddles that were from the book, I will expand as to why these three answers are critical for the message in the story.

1) I tell many lies but am always believed
If the worst happens, I'll be greatly relieved
On the day you were born I poisoned your heart
I'll still be there on the the day you depart.

2) I'm keeping your secret, you're paying my price
You know if you don't, I'll stop being nice
Protection is worth it, wouldn't you say?
Life is so empty when you don't get your way.

3) One day you love me, the next day you hate
But you never resist the hook and the bait
You cry for escape, but what do I care?
The net that I cast is a permanent snare.

If you want the answers, just click the comments.

So this is where the blog ends, it has been a blast
The week has been crazy, yes? It has gone very fast
Well now I'm sleepy, so I won't stall
Have a nice day today and that is all!
