    I'm learning how to be street. So far, it's hard out there for a pimp. Here's me looking tough:

    This weekend, I also learned about hallucinogenics, cage fighters on hallucinogenics, cage fighters on hallucinogenics ripping out still beating hearts, cockroaches, and babies hearing for the first time. Knowing is half the battle!

    i've been learning a lot about cosmology, evolutionary biology, and earth science lately...it's been a uniquely mind-bending experience, if you can believe it...

    I want to start now to get a motorboat drivers license or whatever that is called. I also want to do an intensive Korean language course in Korea this August. Also, I have started a Rosetta Stone Spanish (latin american Spanish) course.

    I learned how to install a ceiling fan this weekend... I will be installing 2 more next weekend, now that I actually know what I'm doing. Hint: the more beer you drink, the better you deal with adversity.

    I'm also learning to sightread the piano. I've played by ear all my life but that can only take you so far. At some point, you've got to learn to sightread those damn notes above and below the staff (my weakness).

    Piano has got to be the hardest instrument in the world to master. I don't know how these concert pianists do it. I feel like I could practice for 8 hours a day for the next 10 years and still not be able to do it. It seems literally impossible to me.

    I'm learning this thing where you basically learn to develop and harness energy that apparently exists (dormant) in everyone. It's done through concentrated breathing, almost like yoga, except with a whole lot more movements. Basically meditation with movements and breathing. It's ultimate purpose is for health; self healing and others, detect illnesses/pain, etc.

    I've been doing it for quite some time now and am at a point where I can detect minor pain (like if someone slaps your arm, I can detect which arm it is).. and also be able to detect where a person is in a room while blindfolded. It's like sensing body heat or some kinda magnetic pull of some sort through my palm. Ultimately that would be translated to alternative healing... but I still have many, many years to go it seems.

    I had no idea breathing exercises is so damn tiring and very perspiring. Asians and their alternative stuffs... it's amazing.
