Ahh, the smell of Racism...

I'm actually killing a little time between some online sessions for a course I'm taking and decided to slip on last February blog entry in. I'm going to try and update a little bit more again, well, at least once a week. Hopefully my life will be a little more eventful and I'll actually have something somewhat entertaining to share.

I wanted to start with something stupid that happened here in town Friday. It looks like some dumbasses wanted to perform a racially insensitive act on the Mizzou campus on Friday. You can see the article about it here.

It seems some folks thought it would be funny to spread cotton ball all over the lawn of the Black Culture Center on campus. An obviously social commentary about the horrid past of cotton plantations.


Not only racist, but also a waste. Think about how much nail polish could have been removed.

Growing up here in the Midwest, I thankfully didn't get too much overt racism thrown my way. I'm sure I was discriminated against, however it was done slyly and probably behind the scenes. I will also attest that most people I've met throughout the years have been relatively open. And while some may have had preconceived notions and prejudices, I escaped harassment.

However, I do wholeheartedly believe that Everybody's a little bit racist. FYI, click the link for a funny ass song from the musical Avenue Q.

Eh, enough about that and more pictures of half-naked women.

RCCOTM

Claudia Toth


Ok, I can't really call this one random, since I actually googled her after someone mentioned her to me. I wanted this month's RCCOTM to have an Olympic feel and I could have easily gone with Tanith Belbin, but that would be following the crowd to much. Reset Button likes to go off the beaten track to find these ladies.

Ms. Toth was the Austrian curling team's Skip. If you've watched any curling, the Skip is the person who is aiming or "bowling" that big ass rock down the ice. As far as I know Claudia didn't compete in the Vancouver games, but after the picture below....she gets elected as February's RCCOTM (I'm sure this is an honor she's been seeking for years now).


I was trying to think of sexually suggestive Curling references. I apologize that I only came up with a couple bad ones: 1) I feel something uncurling in my pants 2) She can skip with my rock. Again, I'm sorry those both sucked, can't say I've spent too much time thinking about that.

Well, that's it for me. I want to get in a quick workout before doing some more online stuff for that course. Hope all is well out there in cyberspace!

All the time I wasted on you
All the bullshit you put me through
I'm checking into rehab 'cause everything that we had
Didn't mean a thing to you
I used to be love drunk, but now I'm hungover
I love you forever, but now I'm sober

WOMBATMAN!

So three days in I'm quite excited to be back in the working world. I had my first day on the Oncology floor yesterday and I must say it went very well. My number one goal was not to faint or puke...so MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!


I was also very worried about the 07 to 15:30 shift (I'm trying to get accustomed to military time as this is what hospitals do) but I made it through the day without a single caffienated drink. I think being on my feet and constantly doing something helped. I'm sure I was pretty excited/scared so this also prevented me from getting too sleepy.

All things considered it was quite a smooth day. I pretty much shadowed another Nurse Tech around as we took vital signs, answered call lights and help people move about. I didn't see anything too nasty yesterday. I did see some intestines, a bleeding back wound, lots and lots of surgical stitching. Good times!

I'm sure the more time I'm on the floor the better acclimated I'll be to all of the things that are typically seen in the hospital.

The one good thing I'm glad about working during the night shift is that I won't be doing much bathing. Of course there will be some bathing if a patient vomits on themselves or has some other bodily fluid issue, but it won't be a regular occurrence like it is during the day shift.

In case you're wondering why I'm posting during the day instead of back at the hospital, I actually got to sleep in today. I'll be attending another offsite training/certification course every over Thursday. Since that is paid training, I'm not needed at the hospital today. So I slept in all the way to 9:30! Last week, 9:30 would have been very early for me to awaken, but this week it is a luxury.

Since work is going well, my only complaint so far has to be the hospital scrubs. As some of you may have seen on Facebook, I was lamenting over an issue with the sizes of the scrubs. Most scrubs are unisex, so the regular Small-Medium-Large sizing can be a little tricky. I've been to Wal-Mart a couple times to try and get the correct sizing.

As a set the medium sized scrubs were a little tricky. The pant legs were a bit too long, while the arm sleeves were quite tight across the shoulders. My mobility is at a premium with this job position so I needed to get a comfortable fit. I went back to get Small sized pants but found that they cradled my baby/love making apparatus too snugly. I decided to keep the medium pants but to give the waist a slight roll down. I went with the large sized top to give me some more breathing room. Its still a bit tight, but much more manageable.

I have come to conclude that I have stumpy legs and fat shoulders. I thought, how could I best describe my body shape. One animal came immediately to mind:

The Wombat.


This cuddly Australian marsupial shares my dilemma of owning short legs and thick haunches. And we're both a little fat, though extremely lovable.

So, in case you were wondering what I look like roaming the halls of the hospital, let me present you with this imagery.

For you old-school-tv-cartoon-watching-cats out there, the title of this post refers to a fake TV show seen on the Saturday morning cartoon Captain N - The Game Master.

Time to do some laundry and clean up a bit before my course. Till next time!

Monday to Sunday I hit all the clubs
And everybody knows me when I pull up

Like my IPod's stuck on replay...

So fellow denizens of cyberspace I say hello to you on Ash Wednesday. As many of you know, today signifies the first day of the Lent. I am Christian but not a staunch Catholic. I do enjoy Catholic mass but am probably a little too liberal and secular in most of my beliefs to be considered a viable Papal candidate. I do wonder what it would be really like inside the Papal Conclave though.

Getting back to Lent. I'm giving up soda pop for sure. Thank goodness for Red Bull and 5 Hour Energy drinks though, if not, staying fully awake during those morning shifts would be very, very difficult.

I think my body's already accustomed to staying up way late at night, so I've been slowly waking myself up earlier and earlier each day to make sure I'm ready for next week's 6 am wake up call. That is going to be a whole big ball of suck!

I couldn't really find an image of a "Big Ball of Suck". A Google search of that phrase may return some icky pictures; so I found this pretty fucking awesome water-walking-ball thing. However, do not use this where there is a strong current. It doesn't look like you can control this very well so don't go in the damn river with this thing. If you do, your fun ball will soon turn into a big ball of suck. Hey! That picture is perfect!

Between very intense matches of Call of Duty, I've been reading through a very, very handy book called Photo Guide of Nursing Skills. Its a thick book that goes step by step over pretty much every technique and skill a nurse will need. While the extent of the medical requirements of my position will be to take temperature and vital signs, its good to see many of the procedures and have this reference to familiarize myself with.

While I read this book and enjoy the illustrations and photos, I've been listening to Jodeci Radio on Pandora. That station is the shit! Its pretty much any and every song you could want if you're getting it on with someone. So I guess its kinda sad that I'm listening to it while looking at how to properly insert an IV.

Listening to the station made me think about some of my favorite songs and albums throughout the years. Now, by no means am I a musical expert. I wouldn't even say my taste in music is refined or sophisticated. But I thought I'd share with you all which albums I particularly liked. I'm sure if you're reading this, then you're probably pretty bored and you always wanted a little more insight into my musical tastes.

Now, to make this list I thought of the albums where I would listen to nearly every single track. I would play the hell out of all the songs until I got sick of the whole thing and wouldn't listen to it again for weeks. For each of these albums, there was rarely a "skip" song for me. I could listen to pretty much the whole thing, which I think is somewhat rare for most music albums. I didn't include any "greatest hits" or sound tracks in this list.

SIDE NOTE: Best musical score sound tracks are: Braveheart and Last of the Mohicans.

I listed them in the order I remembered them, so maybe that indicates how I may actually rank each album. I'd encourage you to check them out. If you don't know, now you know.

So, without further ado, take a peek into Boy Gaga's list of my favorite music albums.


Tamia - Tamia 1998


This is probably my all time favorite album and it probably doesn't have a song that I would consider in my top 10 favorites. The reason this album tops the list is somewhat interesting. Most of you know that I've developed a crippling phobia of flying. But, prior to this, for years I flew quite a bit, crisscrossing the country for fun and for work. I've even flown to Europe by myself. Even then I didn't enjoy flying, but I would pop in this Tamia album into the old discman and just lose myself in her voice. She got me through some turbulent skies for sure. Thanks Tamia!

FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM: Who do you tell?


Jodeci - Diary of a Mad Band 1993


Now, I debated between this album and Jodeci's first album Forever My Lady. It could be argued that pound for pound, song for song, their first album, with jams like Stay and Come and Talk to Me was a better ablum.

But, for the purposes of this list, it should be known that I rarely listened past track 5 on their first album. Can't really go wrong with either album, but man, Diary of a Mad Band had some sexin' music! Though the album was already a few years old when I lost my virginity, it still made the late night sound dampening rotation. (T.M.I. Factoid: Boy Gaga lost his virginity to the song For You by Kenny Lattimore)
FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM: Feenin


Joe - All That I Am 1997


To me, this is the ultimate sexin album. Back in college, I would pop in this CD, get to work and try to make it to track 8. Well, that was the goal anyways. The girl should feel lucky we made it to track 3. OK FINE, track 2.

This album has a great mix of songs you'd play at the wedding then songs for later on the honeymoon.

FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM: No One Else Comes Close


Craig David - Born To Do It 2000


In all my years living in California I only gone to 4 concerts: Craig David, Bush, Usher and...er, should I admit this...Brittany Spears (thanks again by the way to Thes for letting me come with on the later two concerts). I'm typically not a huge fan of music concerts but I was definitely glad to see them all perform live.

When Craig David was releasing his album here in the U.S. I was able to catch him at an intimate venue with some buddies. The highlight of the evening had to be when one of the guys tried convincing some girls at the show that we were actually Craig David's back up dancers on tour with him. How successful this ruse was I'll never know for sure.

This album introduced me to a more electronic pop and house music. Thus ushering in Boy Gaga's short lived "Rave Days". (Thankfully there is very little pictorial evidence of this era)

FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM: Fill Me In


Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree 2005



I think that if I had any musical abilities I would have wanted to be in a band like Fall Out Boy. Maybe it was the half deer-half teenager they had in their breakout video for Sugar, We're Going Down but I've liked Fall Out Boy ever since.

Strangely I like listening to this album when I'm working out. Maybe it takes my mind away from my aching muscles when I'm trying to do that epic third push-up. WEAK SAUCE!

FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM: Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year


Veronicas - Hook Me Up 2007


I'm not quite sure how I got started listening to the Veronica's. I'm pretty certain that I'm not necessarily in their target audience, however I've been smitten. I wouldn't consider either "Veronica" cute, but they do have sex appeal. Maybe it's that angry girl vibe they give out.

This album is definitely a guilty pleasure that I don't mind hyping up to other people.


FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM: I Can't Stay Away


There are a few more a few more albums but I'm pretty sure you've grown bored reading this long ass post so I'll leave it at that. Besides, its time for me to pan fry some steaks and get ready for the Mizzou vs. Texas bball game. Later on kids!

I'll be stabbing you with a needle now.

Well, looking back at some of my old posts I think it was pretty good that I was even able to blog (though very inconsistently) for a whole year. It was one of my New Year's resolutions for 2009, so I suppose we can cross that one off the list.

SIDE NOTE: The other resolution was "FINE in 09". I'm pretty sure I didn't get "fine" per say, but I did lose 15-20 lbs since last January. No, no, I'm not all cut up or diesel by any stretch of the imagination. I think those 15-20 are more of a testament of how fat I allowed myself to get.

So going into 2010 I'll try and continue to keep my Reset Button journal going. I suppose I didn't have much news to relate to you nice folks, hence the dearth of blog entries lately. I tend to hibernate more in the wintertime so there really wasn't much going on to talk about. However...

There have been new developments that I will share. They primarily revolve around the reason I decided to move back to Missouri: Nursing school. Unfortunately, I did not get accepted this first time around to my program of choice. It is an accelerated Bachelors program that has seen a spike of application numbers. Though my grades were good and my interview went stellar, my lack of clinical experience lead to me not being chosen.

I had hoped to remedy this by getting a position at the University's hospital. I had applied last summer, and after 8 long months of waiting I finally was asked to interview. After some more waiting and a couple rounds of interviews I was hired as a Nursing Technician (read: nurse's aide and clinical butt wiper). I'm actually very excited about this opportunity. Its gonna give me the hand's on experience I need, and it'll be good to work in a hospital setting. I mean, if I start passing out all the time from all the exposure, it'll be a good sign that I'm really not supposed to be a nurse.

I start week after next, the 22nd is my orientation. I'll be working the days for a few weeks (7 am to 3:33 pm) but once I get acclimated enough I'll be switching over my my regular weekend nights shift (7 pm to 7:30 am Friday to Sunday). Being a night owl myself I'm looking forward to this shift since most patients will be sleeping during my shift. And who knows maybe I'll get some Grey's Anatomy type action during those late nights.

So that's pretty much all that's new with me. I'm shifting from school mode to work mode for a couple months. I'll look to take some more classes in the fall semester and I'ma try and get as many hours and as much clinical experience as I can until then. Good times!

One thing that is gonna be really jacked up though will be my sleep cycle. First, I need to start getting up around 6 am. But pretty much as soon as I get used to that I'll be switching over to the night shift. Thank goodness for energy drinks and cocaine! Um...I mean, energy drinks and coffee!

Oh, per my last blog entry, I received a couple requests to see pictures of my attempts at mustache school. I didn't post them up last time so here are a couple pictures for you to peruse. Let me know if you think one of them might have been worthy to keep.

I think I liked the "El Guapo" the best. Of course I had to throw in a picture of my super cute niece Veronica to offset my mustache goofiness.

I'm going to MUSTACHE SCHOOL!

Hello People of Earth!

(For those of you who don't know that's my little tribute to Conan O'Brien)

First off, Happy New Decade to you all. Its been quite some time since my last blog...I mean I haven't written since last decade. BTW I'm not sure I'm down with calling 2000-2009 the "Aughts". I was pretty lazy to write over the holiday break, and to be honest, there really wasn't much for me to relate.

However, quick recap. Christmas was spent at my place in Columbia. New Years was just spent chilling at my parents in Hays. My brother and sister came bringing their progeny with them. This meant trying to childproof my home as much as possible. Veronica, the 3 year old is pretty good about not breaking stuff, but Olivienne is only 13 months and just recently mastered ambling around and climbing stairs, so she was causing a ruckus. She is deceptively quick and strong...

Probably the only notable thing over the holiday was my decision to apply to Mustache School. For those of you who are shaking your head, unaware of this fine institution, please let me digress. The origins of Mustache School are long and storied...actually its not, but go with me. While I'm not exactly sure who coined the phrase (I have my suspicions), it is an homage to the fine young Filipino boys who grew up in Vallejo California who found it quite fashionable to maintain hair above their upper lips.

I do confess, when I first saw the high school picture of my then roommate (who we shall call M. Nozaug to protect the innocent) I couldn't help but chuckle. Positioned so delicately below his nose rested a neatly trimmed bar of black facial hair. The mustache stood silently at attention, like an obsidian guardian that would prevent any and all possible intruders from entering his nostrils.

Now, please don't think I'm trying to insult M. Nozaug. Also, I will concur that the mustache was and still is a favored commodity among both the Filipino youths and elders. If I were to wager a guess, I would think that probably 90% of Filipino gents in Vallejo rocked this look. My reaction was simply one of shock and mild amusement (tho I do wish I had that picture to post on the blog...maybe I should call his mom).

So getting back to my application to this hallowed fraternity of mustached men. I had basically been clean shaven since I hit puberty (and no you assholes, that wasn't when I was 19). My first impetus to shave came in 8th grade. When, my sister told me that one of her friends thought I was cute, but I would be cuter if I shaved. I hadn't even realized then that I had facial hair.

Roughly a decade later, I decided to grow out my chin stubble and try to form it into a pathetic goatee. I use this ruse to make it look like I have a chin. If women can wear make-up, well then damn it, I will fake a chin.

SIDE NOTE: I recently shaved off this goatee for the first time in about 3 years and I'm definitely bringing it back. As some of you who received a panicked text may remember, I realized that without the goatee I look like a chubby 12 year old. I suppose "with it" I just look like a chubby 30 year old.

So, over the holidays I figured I'd be spending most of my days lounging about the house without having to deal with any strangers. I decided to try and see what I'd look like if I had a mustache. I wondered if I could even grow enough hair to resemble something solid. I mean, I could probably count the amount of hair I can grow in my cheeks. My guessimate is 38 on the right and 44 on the left.

Sadly, my foray into the Mustache School was a failure. I'm happy there aren't any pictures (that I know of) that covered this international incident circulating on the Internet. While the shape of the mustache would probably be considered adequate, the amount of hair left much to be desired. My upper lip looked a little bit like a deciduous forest during the winter months.

Realizing that the sparse sprouting of hair made for a poor mustache, and it made me look more homeless than handsome (or "guapo" as the Filipina's would say) I quickly brandished the Mach 3 razor and ended this experiment.

Alas, unless I get picked to go on Survivor or another show that doesn't allow me access to a razor, I will continue to keep my upper lip smooth.

In other non-facial hair related news, I finally got an interview with the University hospital here for a nursing assistant position (I applied over 8 months ago!). The interview with HR went very well and she's setting me up with the clinical department managers. The two positions I'm looking at are either in Adult Medicine or Oncology. Both are full-time positions and are 12 hour shifts Friday to Sunday, the shift is 7 pm to 7 am.

The hours are appealing to me since I'm quite the night owl. While my weekends would be spoken for, I'm quite excited to be getting clinical experience. I'm also still working on getting a part-time position at another hospital in town during the week. I'm all about getting all the work experience that I can at this point. Hopefully I'll get some more news about the positions soon.

Well, that's it for me for now. I'll definitely update the blog more soon. Hope your 2010 is going well!

Turkey days gone by...

Sing with me...

Turkey days go by and still I think of you...
Turkey days when I couldn't live my life without you...

OK, that was strange, but that Dirty Vegas song is still pretty sick. And to think it will forever be immortalized by a Mitsubishi commercial. Speaking of Mitsubishi's, when I was younger I always wanted the Eclipse. Then all the sudden, girls started driving Eclipses and it became a chick car. Much like the Mustang (before the recent remodeling anyways).

I haven't blogged in a while because I didn't really have much to say. Since I'm pretty much in a waiting game with work and school...I'm just a loser who spends most of my days at home. I honestly don't have anything exciting going on.

I try to limit the amount of video games I play. I'm still kinda sucky at Modern Warfare 2. But those bastard 12 year olds have more innate hand eye coordination. They also have ADHD so I guess it balances out.

Other than video games I'm just assing around the house. I read a few nursing books (pharmacology and diet & nutrition text books). But since there is very little context, or tests I have to study for, I'm not too into it unfortunately.

Thanksgiving was good. I went to my Aunt's house to help tackle their turkey. I got to hang out with cousins that I don't really get to see that much. It's crazy to see them getting big (well, they're already taller than me, but that's not saying much). Later that week I took them to a Mizzou basketball game for their early Christmas gift. It was nice, we got to sit 7 rows from the floor and had a great vantage point of the MU dance team, the Golden Girls.

Speaking of food, I have decided that I will try eating at a new place once every week or two. This is something that I definitely should have done while living in California, but was too lazy to accomplish. I figure here in Mid-Missouri, it'll be easier to get around to the different spots. I would make a Yelp account to chronicle my culinary adventures...but I have a pretty bland pallete and am probably too complacent to give any "bad" ratings.

Fear not faithful Reset Button Readers (or my RBR army) I will keep you updated on my food choices. Here are my first two targets.

CULVER'S : This is a weird hybrid of a dessert/burger place. I would probably call it a more upscale mix between a dairy queen and an In-N-Out burger. They serve both malts, sundaes, milk shakes as well as chicken fingers, fries and their "famous" butter burgers. The butter burgers were pretty tasty. I would put it just a notch below In-N-Out in terms of fast food joints. The shake was good, I mean you can't really go wrong with ice cream and chocolate.

KOJABA : This is a Korean restaurant located in a strip mall. I guess its been around for a while but I never knew it was there. The prices were kinda high for Mid-Missouri standards ($19) for some Kalbi, but it was scrumptious. I'm normally not a huge fan of Korean food, since my favorite spice is Ketchup, but I do like dining on Bibimbap and Bulgogi every once in a while. It good to know there is a place about 8 minutes from my house that will help relieve me if I'm suddenly jonesing for some pickled cabbage.


I guess that's it for me right now. Hopefully I'll have better news to report regarding the school situation soon. I do plan to head to my parents house in Kansas soon, hopefully this weekend. Everything hinges on my car, the heater doesn't seem to want to work so my car is at the shop. Since the temperature is flirting with the 30's I figure it's probably a good idea to have heat.

Defying Gravity!

It took me a little while to post up my weekend festivities update. I guess you can blame it on Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. What's truly sad is that I don't really have a life that this should impede, but I'm limiting myself how much I play. I'm actually getting my ass handed to me whenever I play online (some of those little 12 year old bastards are way too good).



My dead body is obscured by the smoke. I was probably shot by some kid from Alabama.

OK, back to the weekend recap. Last Thursday I saw the musical Wicked with my brother in KC. Damn, I wish I had seen it when it was in LA, and I wish I had caught it the 2 times I was in NYC. Very good musical. I've scene a good number of musicals in my time and this one definitely gets a top 3 mention. In no particular order I also favor Miss Saigon and Avenue Q.

Watching the musical actually brings us to RCCOTM.

1A. Helene Yorke



I hope she can help me with my magic wand. I think if she shakes it for a while we can get that sparkly fairy dust out.

She kicked much ass as Glinda the Good Witch in Wicked. She stole every scene she was in. Great voice and not too shabby to look at.

For those of you who haven't scene the musical or don't watch Glee, the song Defying Gravity is definitely my favorite (and most people's favorite it seems). You can listen to the Glee cast's version HERE. I thought they did a great job with it.

I've often heard of the term "Sex Appeal" being applied to male musicians or singers who were, how shall I put it, not that fun to look at; but still landed tons of female attention. It's the voice or their musical abilities. I think I have only recently been more affected by this phenomenon. If there was one talent I wish I possessed, it would be singing ability.

This brings us to...

1B. Ellie Goulding


Nerdy glasses only belong on cool indie chicks. Guys should stop wearing them.

I thank my brother for introducing her into my life. The funny thing is that I'm most enamored by a remix.

So, don't blame the alcohol, blame it on the Starry Eyed (Jakwob Remix. Click the link and listen to it damn it!


So that was Thursday. Friday was pretty much a chill day. My mom had come into KC for a dental procedure so we pretty much just kicked it with her. A Costco run yielded a bountiful harvest of King Crab Legs so we enjoyed that for dinner.

My mom drove the 4 hours back to Hays early Saturday morning so that left my brother and I to fend for ourselves in order to eat the rest of the weekend. We hit up a good Korean place called Choga. It really hit the spot as I haven't eaten Korean food in quite some time.

Normally I'm not a huge fan of Korean food since my tolerance of spicy food is negative 2 on a 10 point scale. But I grubbed on Bulgogi while my bro had Bibimbap.

After dinner and thoroughly smelling like Korean food, we headed to one of our new KC Filipino friend's house to watch the Manny P fight. In true Pinoy fashion the house was full of food. We walked up to the guys in the garage sitting around a keg and manning a deep fryer; lumpia for days.

Obviously the fight was a great success and very enjoyable. I lost all nervousness and apprehension about the outcome after the second round. Pacman was in full control of the situation.

After the fight a few of us headed back to the Power & Light district in downtown KC for some more merrymaking. The great thing that I found out is that the bars and clubs are open until 3 am! This was great since we didn't get there until 1.

After a little more drinking and a little more dancing we headed out just before 3. On our way back to the car we ended up getting some food. I snacked on a jumbo hotdog and still found room for a gyro (it wasn't until later that I realized that we had eaten dinner at 5 pm the night before so I didn't really eat anything for 10 hours). Does food taste any better than after a night out? I would say no.

I stuck around Sunday afternoon to watch a laughable NFL game between the Chiefs and the Raiders. It was definitely a waste of time.

So, all in all another great weekend. I may be making another return trip to KC this weekend. My parents will be back there for one of my aunt's birthday party. I'm as yet undecided if I'll head out...its about 50/50 right now.

Oh, the interview that will determine my nursing fate is in roughly 17 hours. Wish me luck!
