random talk on cities and stress

well after a while of not blogging, finishing a college semester and for the most part doing well im posting again, this time about life in the city and how is that related to stress, and maybe how people who live in cities something for copious amounts of stress which i think doesnt happen a lot to those who live in the country.

ive been living in the same city for the amount of years i have which is a lot i could say , since i wasnt born here things are different and you can see everything from a different perspective , even though this particular city is center to a clash of different types of cultures from all over the country, is most popular because of salsa a type of music thats very tropical and kind of catchy, in the last couple of years that has somewhat change theres a festival called cali underground that displays the different types of music proposals that are in the city.

living in a city can be stressful specially if you like near shopping malls, main streets, dowtown, etc, and even if you dont like in this parts there are other ways that living in  a city can become stressful, like driving in rushour traffic that can leave anyone with a headache, or riding in public transportation that seems like a can of sardines from the amount of people riding them, the smog , etc, if you have a neighbor that loves a type of music you hate and puts it at full volume and doesnt care about it, or a noisy neighbor that wants to know everything about anyone.

thats someways the city can stress you, so its good to once in a while get out of the city and go to different place maybe other cities but that are smaller than the one you live in, or a small quiet town, thats your decition not mine, right now theres a construction in the house beside mine and it kind of stresses me but i dont pay attention to it.

ill finish this post later on the day

so heres a random thought

well first time i think im going to mention social networking sites and blogs, ok i started using the internet like 10 years ago , didnt know a lot about it but i managed, i past time on chats , music sites, launch , etc, in that time i dont know if social networking sites existed then, i think since friendster is commented as one of the first type of this type of websites, it might be one of the first, i didt know anything about this until i joined hi5 sure its not that great, and there isnt a lot to do on the site, they used to have a decent music section that disappeared and no one knew why, as it has become a common in these types of sites a lot of spam enters your mailbox, or the amount of random comments some people get i think makes this anoying.

so after a while of being there i got bored of the site, and started visiting forums mainly about music or a specific band, it was a different experience and i like it, anyone could express their opinion freely related to a specific topic without any prejudice it seemed, ill get to blogging later on this post, so yeah after a while of talking with a friend i made on a forum i decided to enter the myspace zone , there i decided to not stay there to find friends but instead look for any type of band that had a different or unique sound so i could expand my music taste and library, the groups there are random i could say, the post are too, but i could sat that thanks to this site ive heard bands that i now love, i started posting random thoughts there too, which i guess helped since i dont talk much and writing became kind of terapeutical.

then i heard about the big f you know what site im talking about , theres also a semi-catchy and moronic song that a person from my country composed, that im starting to hate, the song not the person just to clarify, one of the few things i like about the site are the music and movie apps, and and app about famous quotes, and i agree with a post i saw earlier the status that people post on facebook are rather random sometimes, i guess theyre even more in twitter a site that i actually doesnt any purpose to exist, why would you want to tell the world what youre doing every hour of the day, thats stupid and youre just looking for attention, no more no less, maybe im wrong, not everyone is there for that , there is a supernews video about it thats very funny.

finally blogging, i never wrote about anything before that wasnt for school or college, and i started doing that like three years ago, the more random thought i posted were in lj and xanga, about music, movies , daily routine and random stuff, now that i have this blog i decided to not be as random at times, because it can get boring, question to anyone that visits this blog, what have you learn from blogging or social networking sites and what do you hate or enjoy about both

of families and college

yeah i didnt know what to put as a title so i went with the one mentioned above, i dont post as rarely as id like to but its ok, so october passed rather quickly and with it halloween a holiday that many love and some hate where we see little kids in various types of costumes, i dont hate or like this holiday its just ok, at least i can watch cheesy horror movies every day before and in halloween so thats a plus.

i dont know what is it with modern families , where it seems everyone is on their respective rooms doing theyre own stuff, or with their friends but rarely with its parents or sons and daughters, i dont know if it can be said that the concept of family nowadays, its different than how it used to be before, theyre called modern families, where a video game, a tv show or a computer takes the place of the parents some might call this bad parenting , i dont know since my family seems very traditional though some of us argue a lot sometimes, about little things.

no family can be truely consider normal, since everyone whether they admit it or not have problems, changing topic for a moment ive been thinking of what to do after i graduate from college, the usual path is get a job and thats it i guess, i dont know it seems at times that the life of a person or any person in general becomes sooner or later like a big giant revolving routine thats done every day, while some may get used to this, i dont like that at all, life shouldnt be routinary , but it is sometimes, so im thinking of creative ways to vary my routine, so yep.
