I have to say that I am very grateful to live in city where the word “melting-pot” is reached agreeable upon many people. Anchorage, The largest city on the Last Frontier – Nicely tucked into a space that only you and I can understand by map or plane. The uniqueness of this city is far from static, more specially, the culture aspect. In general, most people would say mixing cultures is the norm – In America, People from all sorts of lands come to be free and live the American dream.

The majority of things I like are the results of exploration of cultures. When I was younger, I was introduced to Mexican food. My next door neighbors were matured older adults from Mexico. I learned so much from them. Learning to speak Spanish, understanding the culture and allowing me to teach them more English slang.

When I was ten, sadly the culture for me changed to a more limited flair for me because I moved into a different town (much smaller town). I have no regrets however but I believe the change was a sub-culture within it. Where was the exchange of differences? I certainly was not open to the fact that our town was one flavored race. I hope I am not I am offending anyone, but when a small town becomes one culture all-round it can become stale (cultural speaking). I believe that the town has changed a little since then but it truly does make an impact on a child when they grow up.

I often think about mixing paint together – Its part of my artist background in me I assume. Just think about the place you live in. What type canvas is it? The people around you, what media/medium are you?

I think the positive experience that I received as a child created some sort of yearning for change in my life. When I went to college I was re-introduced to culture melting again, it wasn’t truly melting together, still this was sub-cultured with separation. The town was much bigger but still had a degree of ghetto-ism. I have to admit that any place you live in or where ever you visit there will always be separation. When I decided to further my goals somewhere else. I landed a place where I truly saw and became part of the melting pot. Anchorage is that place, I understood my place and the cultures started to kindled together in my head.

I was taken away from this experience this weekend when I had some food at the mall. Mexican food created by Asians? I was curious so I had to try it. They mixed the cultures together other than our Americanized versions. Asian style Mexican food? I have to admit – it was different but I enjoyed it. I had a spicy chicken burrito with Asian flavors. Rice and beans to go with it.

have you ever experienced any of these events in your life? If so, make a comment here at techone.us or send me a tweet.

Only if the left and Right would work together like these

I find myself thinking about things that are straight-out weird. What you don’t believe me? I think about the oddest things like imaginary things like mushrooms attacking Tomatoes… creating emotion with something that is not there. I often catch up on my daydreaming so… while I was programming this certain script for a database project. My mind became a canvas for creating logical solutions… the variables became like little characters…. after programming these little guys I would write little commands loop…If statements….whatever functions I was using they were war-men fighting off data killers . I made my tasks enjoyable at the time being…. look after 30 + hours on a project..only the pixels on the screen started to make sense. So when I dream and stuff… I see like neon tigers barking like dogs and seeing myself painting metaphors on the wall made of cherry licorice twist… I know its wacky. What Can I do? Its interesting to me though… Every since I have allowed my brain juices to flow like draino on a clogged drain.  I have been able to create solutions. Its not thinking outside the box but just bending the straight lines that make the box. Another thing that is interesting to me is my brain injury conjuncture with my creativity. After 13 years of dealing with my own brain after an accident … I have learned that I can use something good out of something bad. It similar to creating something yummy like some cottage cheese out of rotted milk. So with my injured Brain that works fairly okay at times… something happend to its creative side of it (right side). It beats me in to telling…. I just don’t know. The only thing I can think of is the brain trying to overcome its barriers. My damage was done the left side of the skull…like major crazy. Us Humans need and crave communication through words, music, touch and other things like food. Communication is like a drug to us. It allows us to share or accept the things that we need to live a life. However, my main connectors on the left side of the brain are damaged therefore it takes a detour through the right side of the brain.

I don’t why I feel like writing about making decisions, maybe its because I feel that its important for all us. Decisions are important because they are the things that we will do next after them.

Loop (decide(action))

I know it seems circular thinking but it is true. What we do now affects us in the future. I forgot to mention this: It doesn’t matter how big the decision is but how you treat it. If you just think the small choices we make don’t change the way we live later you might just think again. Each small decision that we make has a large cost or a reward. I try to write and convey my thoughts acceptable for others to read and simply write from my own experiences. One example would be applying for a summer leadership program. This particular program was for people with disabilities. I hated applying for it. I had a disabilty but God no! “I wasn’t like them”….”Those people” forget! but I soon realized that my pride and prejudgement would hurt me inside later that summer. Luckily my parents shared with me how important this could be for me. My parents didn’t force me to go!  I made that small decsion to go! and eventually it made an everlasting impact on my life! My career, thoughts and general outlook on todays things.

Now after I think about it! I believe that making good decisions now will help you create better ones in the future. I would love any comments or feedback. Remember that you always have choices and decsions to make! :)
