No quotes yet, but I did go work out today. Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve achieved yet another milestone– I lifted a 30 lb. barbell today with one hand. You may be thinking, “Wow! This working out stuff really has had its benefits on Vinoj!”

I am sorry to say that this is not true. As I lifted, my arm tore off completely. This entire post has taken 2 hours to write because I am now learning to type with a wooden peg to replace my arm, and a hook for my hand. I do not see a bright future with the ladies after this. (“Hey ladies, wanna.. oh wait I CAN’T. I’ve got a HOOK for a hand.”)

Alright I was joking and I had you!! Ha. There IS no wooden arm or hook! It was a sham! All to make you come to this section right here– it’s where you can see Vinni and me rapping. *Actually, I dont do any of the rapping- Vinni does. I just try to act like her backup*I was told that if you are a member of the family you are not allowed to watch this. Family friends and such- come on down. Here ya go: Vinni and Vinoj rap!.

Quotes of the Day

These are both from Prashanthi, and all in one day. Go figure– she was just shooting them out left and right!

“Life is just hard sometimes.”

“It’s getting tight up there.”

Don’t go work out on Saturdays. You WILL feel like an insect.

Case in point: Today I went and worked out with Kyle and Kate. Kyle taught me a number of exercises to do on the arm and Kate is a cardio-training junky. Kyle is, compared to me, huge. I am an insect. But here’s the point– everyone in the entire gym was Kyle or bigger.

There are those who go on M-F. These are the people who want to get in shape, get ready for some event, looking for a healthier lifestyle, whatever. And then there’s people like the Saturday Folk. Saturday Folk instead are there because they’re competitive and developed a serious addiction to the gym. This isn’t necessarily bad, but these are also the people that make the rest of us look miniscule. I felt miniscule. BUT the way I figure it, if I continue to be a M-S person and become one of the Saturday Folk, I too shall be amazingly large and in charge.

Of course this was all observation. Nothing really important. Just remember– if you want to become a Saturday Folk, you have to– oh wait I lied. I can’t do life lessons for crap. Ah well.

Quote of the Day

“You’re out of the Jesus Club.”

My sister Vineetha after deeming something I did wasn’t up to her standards

Time for another post. Hmm. Alright so I ended up becoming master karaoke’er on Tuesday night. I did “Criminal” and “The Real Slim Shady” by Eminem and “03 Bonnie and Clyde” by Jay Z feat. Beyonce with my friend Ellie. It was muy cool, but I’m definitely more keen on the Eminem because I just can’t seem to emulate the voice of Mr. Z.

Next week’s agenda: “Stand Up” by Ludacris

Next topic: Abs. I need to get work done on them. There’s the ‘pooch’ that I can’t seem to get rid of, and the sad part is that it’s usually a female issue to be dealt with (men usually don’t have trouble getting rid of this area, I don’t think). As a result, my friend Kate (check out her abs here. She’s the one in the white..) gave me ‘The Firm: 5 Day Abs’. If I can get the abs that a girl has, I’ll be lookin great! Woohoo to lookin like a.. girl.. wait a second…

I got an internship!

Alright alright, before you get all excited (that’s right I know you are), lemme explain the details. I’m going to be working for a firm in Los Angeles that will be using me for website design. I’ll be in Oklahoma and work remotely by giving Chris, my boss, websites to give to clients. This is extremely exciting, ladies and gentlemen, for a number of reasons.

1) I get to do an internship in WEB DESIGN. It’s one of my passions, so you can imagine how much it’s rewarding to get this internship.

2) There’s a possibility of hiring. After working as an intern, whenever I head out to L.A. there may be the option of hiring me. PAID also? Can’t go wrong.

3) Once there, I can also do auditions for ACTING. I think I just described two of my loves in one post. This rocks.

4) Chris seems to be a pretty cool guy.

I’m going to just stay calm and collected now and wait for the work to come. Once I start I’ll keep posted on whatever else comes up. Yay me.

“I like anything sweet.. which is why I don’t know why I’m still friends with you.”

Prashanthi

I think my site is becoming just a list of quotes that are told to me during the day. That needs to stop. Pronto! Or something.

I went to the OU Red and White game today, which is basically a scrimmage for our football team. I didn’t stay long 1) because the sun was glaring down at me 2)I had to something else and 3) (and most importantly,) I was bored. I dunno, how do you watch your team just play against each other? How on earth are you supposed to root for someone if BOTH teams are…. well.. OU? This is the enigma of the day.

Now I’m just sitting at home and about to start the DVD of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I’m told it’s amazing, but if it’s too drug-y, I may get bored. I had the same problem yesterday with the movie SPUN. Why, you say? So that I can understand a character that I’m doing in a movie. See? I watch movies for RESEARCH, not pleasure.

How amazing am I?

Blurb of the Week

“Whoa I wonder if it rained.” – Staci

“No Staci, it didn’t rain. That’s why all the ground is wet.” – Shelley

“F#$@ you, SHELLEY!” – Staci

{ YAWWWWWWWWWN}

I know it’s only 7 am but I’m so friggin tired. I’ve got to go and poll the booth for SIN from 9-12 (!) all by myself, which is going to be tres boring. Ah well, gots ta get paid.

Anyway, India Night was this past weekend and it was a total blast emceeing the program. It went much faster than expected, and I guess I just did the best I could when I got on stage. The other emcees were awesome too, with Prashanthi, Shikha, and Chethan. Chethan is definitey a cool new friend I made, and I already am awesome friends with Prashanthi. Here’s our picture:

Ladies and gentlemen, good news. I have reached the elusive 168 lbs for my weight (I’m 5′11″) and have 17.3% body fat. I used to be, 2 weeks ago, 179 lbs and 19% body fat.

A lot of hard work and I’ll continue to do this right..

Now it’s time for a Snickers bar, or some straight up chocolate.

Maybe this time I’m serious

Grr… so I found out today that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is not really based on a true story. Yes there was a murderer who did gruesome things to his victims and those things are portrayed correctly in the movie, but there was no person using a chainsaw to kill mass numbers of people.

Dammit.
