Trader Joes, the Cereal Killer by HaikuMarko, literature

Trader Joes, the Cereal Killer

Nutritionists say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It gives you the nutrition necessary to function the rest of the day. Without it, our bodies don't run as well and we can be met with fatigue and moodiness. Knowing this and studying to be a nurse, I still didn't eat breakfast, until one day I found myself waking up to breakfast at a friend's apartment after a night of late-night studying for a final. My friend understands the importance of breakfast and eats a bowl of cereal nearly every day of the week. As her guest, she offered me a bowl after my late-night visit to her apartment; this would be my first bowl of cereal

Patient Surveys to Fund Hospitals

Like education, medical care in the U.S. has been enduring cuts after cuts in the budget, and consequently hospitals are struggling to survive in this time of hardship. Nevertheless, hospitals are still able to provide the one thing they are designed for: efficient and quality medical care to the patients of the community. But with a new rule proposed by the Affordable Care Act that will allow patients' reviews to influence the way hospitals are funded by Medicare, hospitals across the nation have to start worrying about providing quality and decent care to their patients. However, physicians, nurses and other medical staff may be laid off d

Moustaches Against Article

It's that time of year again where beards and mustaches are on the rise. This month is dedicated to No Shave November (or Movember), but did you know this yearly manly tradition shares ties with a greater cause rather than simply allowing your razor to rust its blades away? Like most months, November is dedicated to a type of health awareness, just as October is dedicated to breast cancer; November is dedicated to Prostate Cancer. Prostate Cancer is the most common cancer in men with 240,890 cases for 2011 and 33,720 deaths. Fortunately there are organizations and universities who are reaching out by taking part in research. During this m

The Decemberists Live Long

The Decemberists' latest EP, "Long Live the King," is a solid record founded on excellent musical composition and telling folk lyrics. Although these Portland-native indie rockers have been around for nearly a decade, they are still relatively unknown despite the success of 2011's "The King Is Dead" and their noticeable performances at both Coachella and Outside Lands music festivals. I recommend listening to "The King Is Dead" due to the fact this new EP is a collection of songs that were recorded during the production of that album but were omitted in the final cuts. In other words, "Long Live the King" is designed to be a set of extras th

Guys Who Shop With Girls

Shopping is one of my favorite things to do with my girlfriend. Whether it is for clothes, food or music, shopping has allowed us to learn more about each other's interests and embellish our relationship through the places we visit. I'm here to tell guys that shopping with your girlfriend can be a fun and nurturing activity. Here's how I learned to love shopping with my girlfriend. For years I had believed shopping was something that I couldn't enjoy. But the moment I started going on dates to interesting places was when I began to enjoy shopping. One of the best dates I have had thus far consisted of window-shopping in downtown Carlsbad.

I know everyone does any damn meme they like

I usually don't do these but fuck it, these are interesting questions! 1. What did you do in 2011 that you'd never done before? Traveled and made cool adventures in Los Angeles and Orange County, I also was more social living alone in the States. 2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I don't make those, I review what I need to improve on every 2 months usually. 3. Did anyone close to you give birth? Um, a few friends gave birth and some got married but I don't really talk to them much. 4. Did anyone close to you die? No, thankfully. 5. What countries did you visit? The States and Mexico,

Etsy shop and update on gifts

0 min read

Hello there Musers, Whovians, Cosplayers, and other nerdy or musical aficionados who follow me on their watch, this is an update on what is hopefully going to be a cool business move on my part. I use to have an etsy shop and I haven't really posted anything in there so I was thinking of getting back to that and sale vintage style leather shoes and boots that my parents have from the store. Shoes/boots will be around $50-$150 dollars so it's a bit pricey but for quality leather it's a proper price. There'll be footwear for both guys and girls. Anyhow, that's it about that, I may actually start posting pictures of the new creations I've been

The return to gigs!

0 min read

Salutations and greetings! So I plan to see Vicky Cryer next month, wait, not next month but the month after. Yes, January! I'm writing as if I were talking. I don't do these journal things much, I haven't been on DA for a long time so I don't think many of my original followers remain. Well then, let's change that! I've been getting pretty crafty this past quarter, going to DIY (Do it Yourself) Art and Craft club at my university, I have done 5 different projects and I should post some of my work, it looks pretty cool. I made most (actually all except for 2 cookies) for a very special person! (Who could it be?). This includes a custom fold
