I can’t do this anymore.
I don’t give a damn if you read this or not. This is mainly for myself to look back on someday.
I never thought the pressures of college would ever get to me, but it did. There is so much expected from me these days that I’m spreading myself thin trying to get everything done. It’s class after class, meeting after meeting, studying endlessly, while I slowly deplete time for myself and barely cling onto my beliefs.
There is so much to do in such little time. I want to do my best in school, Phi Delta Theta, and my personal life. However, my time is being eaten up exponentially even as the semester comes to a close.
I know that Alexandre Dumas wrote “life is a storm my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. But what makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes.” I’m currently caught in a storm that shatters me on the rocks as I try to fight it each day. I keep telling myself, “It’s almost over. Just fight through it!” yet it really takes a toll on the soul to watch myself fail over and over gain! Everyday I used to believe that I can do anything and conquer anything that stood in my way. Instead, each day, I believe a little less and a little less and a little less. I’m at the brink of falling apart and losing myself.

Results so far as of 6.5 weeks out of an 8 week cut. It seems vain, but I love seeing results like these because it keeps me motivated to break through plateaus and pursue my goals.
Anonymous asked: Why did you join a frat? I never pictured you as a douchey frat guy.
Greek life isn’t really what it is portrayed in the movies. Despite of all the partying and whatever images are portrayed by the media, we are actually much more than that. In fact, much of the Greek society are heads of multiple campus organizations. If you really believe the stereotypes of Greek life, maybe you should stop by and see what we are really about. I guarantee you that you are in for a big surprise.
Are You a Leader?
Rush Phi Delta Theta!
Become part of a brotherhood that will be with you for the rest of your life. Become the greatest version of yourself. Become the man you are destined to be.
“Greatness” is the mark of leaders. They have a certain quality that is socially engaging, very professional, very appealing to others, very approachable and believable. It doesn’t require alcohol to lubricate it or backside paddling to build its resolve. It is something that you already have inside of you. It just needs to be brought out. It is the mark of many Phi Delta Theta alumni because our recruiters seek it, our new members have it, and our brotherhood is all about supporting and encouraging it. At Phi Delta Theta, your character will evolve for the better through friendship, sound learning and rectitude.

“One man is no man”
I have the room to myself until mid-February, so here’s basic set up of my room for now. I’ll be adding a few things after everything is all settled down. And when my roommate moves in.
I dislike the thing I’m holding… but it was his birthday, so it’s okay. I look like a dad…
Happy New Year Everyone!
I know it’s late, but better late than never. You know, 2011 has been a great year for me and I’m sure despite of all the bad stuff that happened that it has been pretty good for others as well. Looking back at the beginning of the year, I was a completely different person from whom I started off with. I gained some of the best friends I could ever ask for, I joined a fraternity (earned the name “The SituAsian”) and grew as a man.
The year was also rough but I realized that there will be suffering in life and that conflict will be unavoidable. Yet it is sometimes better to fail for something you believe in than to fail without knowing what you want.
As I said goodbye to 2011 I said goodbye to my old dreams, my old goals, and my old self. This new year gives us a fresh start; I don’t know about you, but I could really use one. This year will bring out a new things for all of us and, most of all, a new version of ourselves. Let us take a close look at ourselves today, for the person you look at now will be someone else by the end of this year. When we said “goodbye” to 2011 we said “hello” to 2012. Happy New Year.
