Are you excited for the new iPhone?

     It is supposed to be released sometime in September. Personally, I don't give a damn. It's going to have a bigger screen and have a more durable glass class. I still don't care. The new iOS is rumored to have better features than previous reasons. Doesn't tickly my fancy. Don't get me wrong, if somebody gave me one for free I would take it.....so I could sell it. This type of thing is called "flipping" in many urban environments.
     I've never had an iPhone. I have an iPod though. I like to take it outside and pretend it is an iPhone. It works most of the time....well at least I hope it does. I currently have a Windows Phone. The biggest drawback is that it does not support many popular apps. Even with all that being said, it will be no shock when it hits shelves and becomes sold out.

Israel and Palestine

     This is something that has been in the news for some time now, but I have tried my best to not discuss it. The main reason is because I am fed up with the situation in that part of the world. It has been going on for decades with no legitimate solution in sight. Being exposed to images of children who have been obliterated by military grade weapons can and have break make any sensible human being's heart.
     Social media seems to be the bulk of how people are expressing their views on the situation. Even though it seems like the overwhelming majority of people are sympathetic to the Palestinian side, there are a fair number of people who are on the opposite side of the spectrum. From what I have gathered, most, if not all, side with Israel due to religious views. I have read such things as "May God be with Israel", "Israel is the land of The Chosen People," "These are the signs of end times." With radical views like this it is not surprising why certain people have this viewpoint. The situation goes beyond religious and ethnic lines. This is now clearly a humanitarian issue. When innocent civilians, many of which are women and children, are being targeted, everything becomes black and white. I do not know what will happen in the near future, but I hope it is for the best for both sides.

It's been a while guys

Hope everybody is doing well. The reason for my long absence is that I pretty much wore myself out. I wrote and anything and everything that came to mind. Also, I was busy doing other things. What are those things? None of your business, you nosey Desis, but I can tell you I am not married or engaged. I just wanted to say a quick hello to everybody out there. I have some free time in the evening and might go back to posting. It depends on if I feel inspired or not. Until then, bye.

It's that time again

     I got another haircut. I was overdue. Being on vacation has made me very lazy but I wanted to look fresh for the New Year. On my way to the barbershop, I saw my barber walk into the local bar. Oh no. This can't be good. He returned about five minutes later. I was apprehensive to sit in his chair, but I went for it. He does not talk much but on this occasion he was full of conversation. For years I was under the impression that he was an Eastern European Christian. Because of this I asked him how his Christmas went and he informed that he did not celebrate it because he was a Muslim. Very interesting. An intoxicated Muslim from Albania giving me a haircut. Only in America.
     With all the banter going on I didn't pay much attention to the job he was doing. When I finally did, I noticed he was doing the same job he always does. I also could not smell any alcohol. This led me to believe that maybe this wasn't the first time he cut my hair while under the influence, and that he may have been an alcoholic. I don't care. He always has been respectful and professional. Whatever his flaws or shortcomings might be are none of my business. This goes to show you that just because you have a vice does not make you a bad person. I am Baliwala. I once again look like a low level drug dealer. That is all.

My last final

     Was this past Monday. It was scheduled from 1-3 PM. I decided to wake up a little before 9:30 AM so I could get to campus early to get some extra studying done. I checked my email at 9:42 AM. Why did I remember the exact time? I remember the exact time because I received an email from my professor. It went like this: "*real name withheld due to many reasons* We are currently taking our exam from 9-11 AM in our classroom." Holy Shitcicles Batman! I felt as if I was experiencing a nightmare. I had never felt so shocked in my life. My heart started to pound very fast, and it seemed to completely stop randomly. The act of breathing which once was a mere reflex, suddenly became an arduous task.  After the initial shock, I emailed my professor back and told him that I had 1-3 PM written down in my notebook, because that's what I was told on the last day of class, and if there would be enough time for me to finish the exam.
     I had no time to see if he had replied. I threw on whatever and rushed to campus. The trip was excruciatingly slow as my heart continued to have palpitations.  When I arrived to the classroom I had explained my reasoning for being too late. The snickering of my classmates could be heard in the background. I don't blame them. I would have done the same. I was handed the exam. When I found out it was 10 pages long and I had only 45 minutes to finish it, more panic set in, but I said fuck it. I do not have time for emotions to further hinder my ability to finish the exam. I had a feeling come over that reminded me that I had been through worse in life and have come out on top.
     The exam was a blur. Adrenaline and muscle memory took over. I had easily forgotten about the mishap on my part and got lost in academics, no geek. I ended up finishing the exam at 11:03 AM. I turned it in but I was still shook by what could have happened. My professor was very kind to send me an email reminding me of the exam. Without that I would have been screwed, so I sincerely thank him. It was something he did not have to do. Moral of the story: life will mess with you unexpectedly. You can either curl up into a ball and blame circumstance or others for your downfalls, or you can take personal responsibility for your actions and choices, and overcome them by sheer courage. By the way, I did really well on the exam in case you were wondering. I am Baliwala. Stray away from fear, laugh in the face of intimidation, breakthrough mediocrity, and most of all, never sell yourself short. That is all.

Some of

The insults I have received in my life:

" You panda!"

"Your mother snorts cocaine off of the toilet."

After making fun of a FOB: "You are an elitist in English."

After not buying ice cream at Baskin Robins: "Of course you do not want ice cream, MEAT EATER SALA!"

"You are son of dog."

"Faggot."

"Asshole."

"LOL! YOU MUST BE A VIRGIN!"

"You wish you were White."

The lack of

     Creativity in the world has gone down. I blame the internet. Hello, I am Baliwala. You might know me from such posts as "Desi bitches" and "Channing Tatum is a faggot", but enough about that. Over the past six months I have seen a decline in comedic ability, and the main culprit is Vine. The majority of these blurbs do not even get a giggle out of me. What is more disheartening, is the amount of people who "like" these videos. They comment as if they are in the middle of a seizure. It's not that funny. I usually see these comments on the Vines titled "Niggas be like" or "Bitches be like." I am intentionally using quotation marks because I want the marks to create a physical barrier between my words and those of which that come from idiots. Anyway, even though I do not like the videos or the people who make them, there is a  level of respect from my end. This is because they have found a niche and if they are not already, have the possibility of benefiting financially. The excuse of always being in a hurry might explain this phenomenon of minute attempts at comedy, or that it does take a creative mind to come up with a funny skit in a short amount of time, but I don't buy it. Everybody has time to sit down and laugh for more than 7 seconds, and that is not enough time to have a person truly engage into a meaningful message. I am Baliwala. Nothing can replace genuine thought and art. That is all.

Listen man

    



     I get it. You're a "free spirit", but cut this shit out. It's beyond disgusting. Maybe you think the Earth is a wonderful place that has feelings, and you want to feel "connected" with it, but that is not the case. The weather on this particular afternoon was mild so I can maybe understand your reasoning for going foot commando, but yesterday there was snow on the ground and you didn't have on any kicks. As I walked out of my last class of the day I saw your punk ass come down the stairs. Not only were you barefoot, but you gave me a dirty look. Yes, YOU gave me a dirty look, because I'm the weird one. Not you. You're the spitting image of sanity. Walking around with crusty soles and God knows what type of bacteria creeping up your ankle. I wanted to kidnap you and drop you off at the nearest Foot Locker for your own good. If you're reading this and are thinking: "Stop being an asshole, it's his body and life", or "Stop being so judgmental", fuck you. Yeah that's right. I said it. What he is doing is socially unacceptable and creepy. I am Baliwala. I wish I could wear two pairs of shoes at the same time. That is all.
