Last blog!!!!

This is my last blog people. And i would like to say it was an privilege to be in the classroom with you all. I don't think anyone is gonna read this blog but i am just writing what i feel, no matter if anyone replies or not. I loved almost all the lectures and i missed couple of it due to my illness. So yeah sometimes things happen. you can stop it. When you wake up tomorrow morning and out of nowhere your head starts to ache then you can do nothing. you just have to accept the fact that you are physically incapable to be in the lecture that day. Since this class was my first honors class, i was really excited and i was really pleased how the classes worked. We had blogs, we had assignments, we had essay, we watched movies, we analysed them, we had a lecture just for browsing for database. It was cool.I want to thank Ms.Rhodes for the way she has put together all the ropes in order to give us this wonderful opportunity. Thank you everyone.

Women's Leadership and Activism

This blog is dedicated to a program that happened this April 9Th 2009, 7 pm at Newport News Room,Webb Center, which featured Miriam Perez.

Miriam Zoila Perez is an editor at the popular and widely read blog Feministing.com as well as the founder of RadicalDoula.com. She has worked as a reproductive justice organizer and birth activist in the Latina community and now now focuses much of her activism online. During her presentation, Miriam will share her experiences as a young Latina queer activist and writer. She will also talk about what the future of youth activism looks like and how you can get involved during this crucial time for social change.

Initially i thought i would encourage everyone to go to this program via this blog, but i guess i was too late already. Above i have briefed a little bit about Miriam and how she actively participates in promoting gender equality (feminism). It is worth a look. Please contact "The Women's Center" , Division of Student Affairs, Webb Center for further information about her next possible visit.

The movie "Fight Club"

I loved the movie "Fight Club". I had never seen it before. I loved the climax of the movie and the story too. I loved the movie so i did some research on it, to see if it was based on true story.The answer was a big NO. It was a 1996 novel by Chuck Palahniuk. In 1999 the book was banned by the People's Republic of China government for giving instructions on how to make various explosive devices including napalm, C4, and dynamite. The novel won the 1996 Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Award and also the the 1997 Oregon Book Award for Best Novel.The film was directed by David Fincher. In the movie Brad Pitt is portrayed as Tyler Durden and Edward Norton as the nameless narrator.The duo was completely out of the world and even the movie. Analysing it through the issue of gender. I thought Tyler was masculine part of the unnamed narrator. Since, the narrator possessed some behaviour like caring and he is in love with Martha.yeah you can question me that loving is not being feminine, and i answer would be i see violence as masculine in compared to love so yeah. Since Tyler shows no sign of love ..and how he is shown as being completely violent and disrespectful to Martha. It just feels so masculine. I have always thought love to me a little bit feminine. Please respond.

How many females are there at your workplace?

How do you love you job?...sorry about the question. Please look around at your workplace and calculate what is the ratio of male to female population in the workplace. I bet it the result won't be a big number now, would it? So, what does that mean. That means we have almost equal of male and female population distributed in our workplace. It was not the same just a few decades ago. Females were less in number compared to males in the working class. May be it was because women used to be much more "quiet and passive" in the workplace due to the relatively small number of female employees in comparison to males.Females were also not seen equal to males in terms of mind and body strength. That why females hesitated to participate in outer economical world and made their time in use to household. But now as you can see things have changed. Women have been successful in all the sectors as men are using their god given intelligence and organization. Women has improved in lot in terms of their numeric representation in the working class and now has grown equal to men. Through this blog i would want to conduct a research in what is the male to female population ratio in your workforce and see if some odd comes out? please participate and follow the blog to report you answer. Thanks.

How feminity works in south east asia?

Women are the backbone of the society. As the we can see in south east Asia, women dominates the men.That means its a matriarchal society. Though Islamic religious belief has taken over the south east Asia. Women in there don't follow the traditional laws and boundaries that is set by the holy "Quran". Isn't that such an irony? As we can see in south Asia, women are dominated by men in that society. But in south east Asia women have equal power and they equally participate in governance and social community building as men do. Hence this has helped them defy foreign power to take over their sovereignty.What do you think about it?

Why am i still a single?

Probably this question is in every single's mind.That why AM I a single? why me?There may be millions or just one reason why you are a single. Some one may be a single because he has this addiction towards drugs and everyone thinks he is messed up , or the other reason may also be someone likes you but they do not have the courage to talk to you. Yeah that may happen some times. Or, there may be a very unique reason about why you are a single? Something like that could be a reason IF anyone did not let me tell you all that probability of being or not being a single also depends on the place you live. According to this article by "The Boston Globe" , the ratio of female single population is relatively high to the male singles in cities than in less city like places. For example: Places such as new york and Washington D.C. have more population of single females than males. And places such as Texas and Oklahoma has male singles population more than female singles.So, a guy who is looking for a partner should probably hit the city streets and a girl who is looking for a good guy should come back a less city like places. That's the only way to balance the difference.The are many reasons behind those differences that is explained in the article below.I just want every one's response about the article.

Life is amazing, it really is...ups and downs..twists and turns ..scars and burns and things like that..Its incredibly boring sometimes, like last night. I did nothing but stare at the wall, for two whole hours. Finally my senses came back in place and i thought i should make something useful and productive out of my time.What i did was nowhere near productive or useful but it was fun.I decided to go back in time and search how many times have i said "she is so beautiful" and actually meant it. I know its completely random but i had nothing else to do, i think.So, i started searching for my first " she is so freaking beautiful" memory and the results were pretty amazing.I could see me eight or nine years back, wearing white shirt tucked inside a perfectly creased half pants, side parted hair, oval glasses and white socks with black shoes.I cant lie, i was pretty adorable at that time.I was studying entitle Angels' School,5Th grade, Section B, the best school in Nepal and i had a crush on my class monitor.I saw myself running towards a bunch of girls who were busy devouring their lunches, i don't think they were really hungry or ever cared about lunch by their own will, they were forced.If they didn't finish their lunch on time, the teacher would surely finish them,not the lunch fool, the kids. I can feel the pain, been there done that. I don't know what got into me, the little me, i went close to a girl and whispered "Hey, that girl is freaking beautiful". The next thing i know ,she was furious. Then i noticed her left hand coming towards my left cheek ,at like 120 miles per sec and BLAAMMMM!!! yes , she slapped me.HARDCORE.I don't know why she did it,but she did and i got slapped by a girl for the first time in my life (excluding my mom and sister).It will always be a mystery but its history so i don't care. Lets move on.Next time i found myself in 11th grade, 2006 baby!!! This going back to memory thing is just like time traveling without a time machine. Only flaw is, u cant do anything to change what happened when u travel back memory. Whereas in time travel things might be different( i don't know, i haven't travel back in time yet, when i will do it i will be more than happy to share my experiences).Meanwhile back in 2006, it was the last day of exams and i was planning to beat the hell out of this kid, saurib or sauresh or whatever the freak's name was. I hated St. Xaveirs School. However, the irony was that, my best buddy was in that school. My friend was a good guy. I had no intentions of making him look like an a jerk but my actions always spoke in a reciprocal manner.So i finished my exam and came out of the hall, i felt like a beast freed from 1000 yrs of imprisonment. I was ready to beat the hell out of that dude, i can not remember his name all i remember is he was ugly, had body order and looked like a douche bag. When i came out of the gate i saw this BEAUTIFUL GIRL standing by the cafe with her friends. I was numb for like a minute or so, her beauty left me spellbound. I used to deny that angels existed but she proved me wrong.Her face had this strange glow in it, the glow that influences people to do good stuff, the glow that makes do moral stuff. For a second i thought how beautiful a human can actually be and my plans to beat this kid completely faded from my mind.I started walking towards her. I didn't know who she was?where she was from? what was her name? literally nothing about her and i didn't really cared at that point. I cant exactly remember what i said but i definitely said this"HEY , I AM IMPRESSED. YOU ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL".She was shocked, 440 volts, but she talked back, she actually thanked me for my compliment and we became friends. So no slaps this time, thank heavens( if there is a heaven, that is). I felt stupid after she left. I wanted to kick myself, i even did. I could never apologize to her for my sudden irrational , barbaric behaviour so via this note i want to apologize, i am sorry ... i didn't mean to say those stuff but i had no choice, your beauty left me hypnotized.So excluding all my ex girlfriends there were only two girls that i actually thought were beautiful .I never knew my choices were so limited. But hey! that's me and there is nothing you can do about it.Thank you for wasting your time and to all the ladies out there, even though i never say it YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.

Via this i want to know what you all think about how i felt at that time and respond what i should have done.
