Today, April 25th, is Suicide Awareness Day, which was brought to my attention by one of my friends. The first thought I had to myself was, "eh, just another social cause." I don't mean that in a bad way at all, no, I simply meant, it's just one of many causes that bring hurtful emotions and reinforces the negative environment around the issue. But then I got to thinking. How is this different

I'm back in Boise, almost two weeks removed from a much needed Spring Break. I had gone to back to Seattle, on the 8 hour trek through the barren lands of southwest Idaho, the windy roads of the Oregonian Blue Mountain, past the vineyards of the famous Columbia Plateau, then finally over one more set of mountains drench in precipitation and stunning (and surprisingly sunny) Seattle. It was my

From John Locke, we learn that toleration is the key element in society towards progression and betterment of the human race all together. Locke submits that it is the people's consent of permission which allows societies to advance, benefit and enhance the social wellbeing of all. Nobody can be forced into a realm in which their inalienable rights are imposed upon. We hold these truths to be

I've been in Boise about 3 weeks and have met some pretty cool people. Only a couple I've hung out with outside of school, but mostly the people I've met are are pretty chill. I have to admit, I was wondering how hard it would be to meet new people and make friends with them. I know it takes time to get to know someone, but all I really want is to fit in right now. I don't want want to be off the

Well, I did it! I'm here finally studying full time at Boise State University. A bit of a random place to be at, I will confess, however, I'm really excited to be here. It's hard to imagine, but three weeks ago, I came here with mom for new student orientation then we scrambled to find my new home. Like mom always said, "Off on another adventure!" Adjusting to Boise, hasn't been too difficult.

Below is a recent video from the Ellen DeGeneres Show, where Ellen addressed the issue of being bullied. She goes on to tell of an teenage individual who was outed on the Internet as being gay, where after, this individual unfortunately took his own life after having succumbed to the pressures, prejudice and hate from the society that surrounded him. Ellen also went further to say that three

 This past week, I returned to the land of Oranje. It was for a special occasion that I would not have missed at all: my cousin's wedding. She had been dating her boyfriend for seven years now, and people kept on asking that typical question, "when are you two going to tie the knot?"

As a child, we are taught to use our imaginations. We're told that creativity is the essence of knowledge, discovery and enlightenment. But as we get older, reality quickly sets in ground our minds from far off ideas. After all, who do we think we are?

I have recently had a small exchange with one of my friends from grade school about the surprise I had she had gone from being a conservative mind to liberal. I was surprised at first to hear that she had changed. Last that I had heard she had all these conservative views from back in high school and now to see her flipping a 180 really got me intrigued.We exchanged for a minute; she telling me

Welcome to 2009! Last year was great, but I know that each of us is headed for better things in the next 12 months. Last year, I made new friends and increased old friendships. I even got a new girlfriend who loves me so much, I couldn't ask for anything more. I've even grown into my own, sort of, with taking on more responsibilities at work. A few times a week, I reflect on how I got to where I
