Reflections

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 13:24:00 +0000

Yesterday, I had to present a project to a group of small children. The experience was rather... Scary at first, but I eventually calmed my nervousness down. As soon as I spoke and actually started to present my powerpoint project, I was calm, and knew exactly what I was talking about... I even threw in a little comedy, none of them got the jokes, though.
Silly children, jokes are for adults.
The experience was great, once it was over...
Thank you for your time.

An article I read recently.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 13:04:00 +0000

Article.
So, Bill Clinton went to Pyongyang, North Korea to free two American Journalists, who had entered North Korea Illegally. They had only served four months of their designated twelve year sentence.
I believe that if they broke the law in another country, that they should have had to pay the price... Not get a pardon, just because A former president went to visit Kim Jong II.
The only reason they were even let off, is because they were american... and because it would be seen as defiance, and a breakdown of ties between the two countries.
North Korea has already started its nuclear program back up, in complete defiance of several countries... I just don't think that it's fair to those who are in Jail over here, for whatever they've done wrong... when most of them may not get a pardon (well, those who are innocent.)
They got off completely scot-free from a twelve year sentence... What if you were wrongly accused, and had to go to jail for a full twelve years... do you think that they would come to pardon you?
No... Not unless you could prove your innocence.
That's all.

My Interest Profiler Results

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 18:53:00 +0000

My two highest are Artistic, with 14, and Enterprising, with 11.
Both of these will help me become what I want to be in my future, a Marketing Manger.
The artistic side will help me catch people's attention, with what that I am marketing... and enterprising, is definitely going to help.
I'm pretty sure that it's accurate to my personality, and what I like to do.
So, I'm quite pleased with my results.
Also, Well... that's about it.
Thank you.

Quick update.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 18:11:00 +0000

43 things not to say during an Interview.
This article is all about what NOT to do, and say, during a job interview... I suggest you read it, and make sure you wouldn't say any of this while in an interview.

Successful Interview:

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 14:48:00 +0000

When you walk into the interviewing area, you should greet your interview by Mr./Mrs. and their last name.
If they tell you to call them something else, say something along the lines of "Of course, *enter name here*"
Shake their hand, tell them that you appreciate the oppurtunity to showcase your skills in an attempt to be hired, and then proceed to completely follow their orders.
Answer all of their questions clearly and concisely, and give them all the information about it that you can, without going into something that could potentially backfire in your face for saying.
Tell them what they want to know, basically, and keep it at a minimum.
Sometimes interviewers will want to know more, and that's just to find a reason not to hire you.
if they can find a reason, they usually will use that reason.
If you have any questions, wait until they ask if you do, or until the very end to get what you want to know, out into the open.
Once the intervew is over just shake their hand, thank them again and then leave politely.
Wait for at least a day to send a follow-up email, or thank you card. Or even a call.
They appreciate that you take the time to do those things, it shows that you have dedication about the job you were applying for.
Point out all the skills that qualify you for the job, without sounding cocky... Just be sure of yourself, and your abilities.
if you have a way to demonstrate them to the interviewer, than do so... it will help boost their confidence in you.
If you are hired, make sure that you thank them again, and be prompt and neat on your first day.
Other than that, interviews aren't that hard... Just be sure of yourself, and don't act nervous... make the employer want to hire you.
Thank you.
-Neiko

I hope that everyone had a great weekend.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 13:03:00 +0000

So, it has once again been a long time since I posted, and I apologize.
I meant to post during the weekend, but I was very distracted with other things... and so I couldn't find time to write even just a few words down.
But, here I am now... and here I go with my free falling mind.
I want to write a story, a story about the city of Salataria.
And I will let you all know how it goes... I want it to be captivating, and full of life.
I'll post updates about it, and make sure that I also film a movie trailer for Cybernetic.
Of course, I could very well just write a story about cybernetic, and alter the path it goes.
The plot, I can change... I can do anything I want with it right now, as it is in pre-production.
So... Thank you for your time.
-Neiko

So,...

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:52:00 +0000

I'm sorry that I didn't get to post up an update yesterday, but I was rather busy at work and once I got home.
So, I'm posting this from my house at around 6 in the morning...
It won't be a terribly long update, so here we go.
First thing, life is awesome, and I'm going to be working on a trailer for the Cybernetic movie.
Today is basically physical labor day at work, where us "computer folk" can get out and do more physical things around the work site, like cleaning.
Today is also PAY DAY! YES!
So, all in all, today is gonna be a good day... I can feel it in my bones.
Thank you.
-Neiko

Cybernetic

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 13:29:00 +0000

So, I decided to make this movie poster on Bighugelabs.com, I think it's actually quite charming.
And, who knows... maybe one day.
But, on to other news... Everyone is working hard and doing what they like to do.
Isn't that extra special? Getting paid to learn... it's really not that hard, and I think it's actually fun, but that may be just me.
Today has been a good day so far, and I'm quite pleased with that bit of information... as should you be, for what reason? I don't know.
I just thought you should be... because when someone is doing good, you should be too.
Thank you.
-Neiko

So, there are world issues.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 12:57:00 +0000

We all know about them, we all wish they weren't there... and we all want to do something about them, to fix them.
So... how come, if nearly everyone in the world wishes that world issues were gone... they aren't?
If everyone wants the recession to be over with... they don't help?
They just think that they are one in 6-7 billion people in the world, and they aren't important enough to help.
But that's not the case, they are... Let's say: one soldier in a batallion, one spartan out of the 300 that stood (in the movie)
They are all important, and are all important to the cause.
What cause? The one that they care about... So many people wish that things would change, and wish that things could get better... but no one wants to stand up for that belief.
It's truly a tragedy, they feel like they must be famous, or important... or rich enough to change the world.
if a million people were behind them, and they'd only have to give a dollar each... they would have plenty to help their conquest, they would have plenty to help people... to help fund the change they seek.
Just think about it... if there is anything you EVER want to change... just act upon it, grab your friends, or those that feel the same... and get up, and do it.
It's not that hard to start a following... it's not that hard to talk about what you want or think.
It's not that hard to meet up with your friends, and protest, or start a riot... Do whatever you must to fix what you think is wrong.
-Neiko

The delicious side of the internet.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 13:31:00 +0000

So, most of you who know me... know that I can ramble a bit, but that's not what this is about.
I want to speak to you about a site known simply as Delicious.com. It is a site for storing URL's, and other things of that sort.
The way it works is this: You find a website you really like, you copy the URL, and then you save it in your bookmarks on Delicious.com.
Quite simple, non?
It's really quite simple, and very easy to use.
You can find ALL SORTS of bookmarks, and url's that you may want to look at.
That's about all I can think of about the site, but... I'll be posting more soon.

GUESS WHAT I JUST GOT...

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 16:21:00 +0000

Dare to guess? It would mean a lot to me... if you could guess properly.
Well, either way... I just recieved my brand new headphones in the mail, and I am massively thrilled with them. They include a silk carrying bag, and a small metal bottle opener.
They sound excellent, as good as my last pair of Skullcandy's, except I had a pair of Hesh's, not G.I's.
Although... The other pair I had meant a lot to me, as they were a gift from my Beloved.
I'm currently listening to Eminem... because I simply can, I like the bass.
I'm also starving, so I will end this short broadcast to go grab a bite to eat.
Thank you for your support; -Neiko.

It's a brand new day, Das Endzeit ist Nahe.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 15:23:00 +0000

The closer you get to the conclusion of the story, do you feel excited? Or do you feel fearful of your own mortality?

This has always been a question that mankind has hated the answer to... Either you fear the fact that you are going to lose your life, or you have come to terms with it... and accepted it as an inevitability.

Even if you are still alive, you could be dead internally... more of an emotional phase than anything, but it could eventually lead to your mortality being subjected to you before you'd like it to be.

Some will try to keep their life as long as possible, some will accept the time when they know.

Of course... your death could very well be Pre-Ordained, and no matter when you die... it's your time.

Even if you were murdered, if you drowned, if you got into a car wreck... it would be your time.

And, if you believe the stories, you either wind up somehwere good, or somewhere bad.

And, if you don't believe them... then you supposedly just die.

I know that it seems like going to heaven would be a wonderful thing, life after death... in eternal peace.

Of course... there is only one true way to know, you must die... a saying that most of us know. "We learn best through our experiences."

You have to experience something, before you can fully understand and comprehend it.

As is the way of man... they think they can do it all before they really should even attempt it.

And, we have so many mind altering substances... that they increase that, make us stupid.

I may only be 18 years of age, but I believe that I can spout the wisdom of a full grown adult, at times.

I look at the world in a different light, a true light... a light that leaves nothing to be questioned, a light that brings forth the truth in the sub ject.

There is light, and dark. Killing, and living.

But, who's to say it's wrong? It's just like the battle of good and evil... Evil, may be what's right to you, and it's only considered evil by others.

It's as basic as finding something amusing, or thinking it was a stupid joke/action.

Either you like knock knock jokes, or you hate them.

Or, you simply don't care for them, the middleman in the equation.

There is love, there is hate, and there is indifference.

You never just feel anger towards someone, if they piss you off... you want them hurt, you hate them. Even if you don't fully recognize the emotions flowing through you, being processed by your mind.

Well, I will end this rant right here and now, I believe that my stomach is crying out for food... yet I have another hour before I may dine.

Adios

-Neiko.

My Experiences, up to this day.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 18:47:00 +0000

Well, as this is an assignment, then I feel the need to utterly crush it, and "own" this assignment, make it my own.
So far, this job has been very fun, and very eventful.
I will be making lots of money, considering that I don't make ANY.
which is good.
I realize that I haven't been here anymore than 7 days, a full week, yet... I'm very pleased with my rate so far.
A lot of things I know how to do already, and some I don't.
I'm learning, and getting paid to do so... How great is that?
I realize that this will be just a wee bit different than what I generally blog about, but it's good to be able to scatter my mind into different directions, is it not?
My strengths in this job, are my abilities to type well, and quickly. My ability to focus on my work, without being distracted, and knowing exactly what I wan't to do with my future.
My weaknessess... Nothing so far.
I believe I will do the best that I can here, with no faults, or incidents whatsoever.
This blog helps me collect my thoughts, and pour out everything I wish to say, and I'm getting PAID for it... seriously, it doesn't get much better.
As for the need for this blog in day to day life... I will most likely only use it while on this job, unless I have an urge to use it at home.
So, let me just end this now... I believe I have fulfilled the task at hand.
-Neiko.
Ahh, and here is a picture for you to enjoy.

Ist das der end? NEIN!

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 18:08:00 +0000

Also, ich bin hier sitzen lehren mich etwas Deutsch. So, I'm sitting here teaching myself German.
I really wish to speak it fluently someday... it would be so "bombe."
Neiko ist das bombe.
Which means, Neiko is the bomb.
I'm figuring it out bit by bit, it would have been so much easier if I had been able to learn it as a child, when the brain appears to be some kind of sponge.
"Sie Bringen das tier in mir."-You bring out the beast in me.
There are pleny of sites you can use to learn german... I'm just using the Google Translator, myself.
I own a disc that has full on german lessons... I'll be bringing that out soon, once I understand a lot more myself.
Thank you for your time, for this small broadcast.-Neiko.

An Update, pure and simple.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:47:00 +0000

It's the next day here in Neikoland.
Let's see what's on the Agenda for the next few days.
I'm awaiting a pair of Headphones in the mail.
Would you like a link? Well, here it is: http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/gi-p-115.html
They are due to arrive on the 17th, which is three or four days from now.
The headphones I currently have... are totally trashed, and are shorting out like crazy.
I have to hold the audio jack while it's plugged into my iPod for it to even work... Crap, right?
Well, In other news... Murder still runs rampant, racism is still a driving form of Ignorance, and the world is slowly destroying itself... Check, check, and check.
These things will most likely always be true, until the world does destroy itself.
Of course, it's not exactly the world, it's the creatures that make up the world, more specifically, Humans.
Computers are helping a lot with the need for less paper, so that we don't run out of oxygen, and trees.
Cars are slowly becoming better for the enviornment, but anyone that drives an eco-friendly car is Ridiculed, and heckled at.
Do you honestly feel better that your car is destroying more of the atmosphere, and using up more of a non-regenerating mineral, just because it may look, or sound cooler?
If you do, then you are one of the reasons this world IS going to end someday.
Gas mileage, engines, ability to get from point A, to point z. Does it really matter about the looks?
no, it shouldn't. Grow up, and stop busting out the High School Bullying Tactics.
"Haha, your car doesn't even make sound when it's on." Or, "You loser, driving a prius."
you should Retort with this statement: "Well, at least my car isn't going to be the downfall of man."
Then walk off, while they contemplate the words.
Especially if they are driving a hummer, these people should not be allowed to drive anymore.
You can pay thousands of dollars for the great beast on wheels, you just can't drive it.
That would teach people a lesson.

Let's skip on down to murder, now.
Murder: Taking someone's life forcefully, and against their will.
Murder is a complicated, uncomplicated subject.
For example, pulling the trigger is easy; living with the consequences... Not so much.
It's not hard to take a life, but stomaching the fact that you just have... is another story all together.
Unless you were trained to do it, or you just don't care: also known as Heartless.
The Terms Of Use, for life... were supposedly written thousands of years ago.
Free Will, but don't do 10 things.
More of a guideline, or a command?
According to the title... Command, according to the fact that not everyone agrees... Well, then they are nothing.
For the past 2,000 supposed years, everyone has been in awe, and shock, of the religions of the world.
There are numerous ones, some false, fake, full of lies...
And, some have been around for ages.
Some are no longer around, some still thrive in very small areas.
Paganism is still there, the belief in many gods, not just one.
Then there is Monotheistic Religions, such as Christianity, and Islam... Two of the constantly bickering Religions out there.
Which one is right? Who knows.
Will they someday put aside their differences and come together? Yes, if you believe in the Christian faith, they will.
When all the world's religions come together, the end of the world shall begin...
Of course, this is all speculation, and coming from many different people adding what they think the bible is saying about the future.
Anyway, I'm done rambling for now... Have a fun time reading all of this.
-Neiko

First Legitimate Post.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 15:29:00 +0000

So, for those of you who know me... The world issues of today seem to be blown wildly out of proportion. Of course, some of you may very well think they are getting the perfect amount of media coverage... I can understand that this country, America, seems to have a fascination with Television... But, do we really need it that badly?
The Media is constantly forcing new ideas, and revamped-old Ideas that seem to draw attention like crazy.
Even the very same thing, just wrapped in a slightly different package... Seems to draw tons of attention.
For instance, since the television came out... I'm pretty sure the IQ has dropped in our country.
Half the population has Double Digit IQ's... I'm not too happy about that.
Compared to Japan, we could very well be small children.
I, for one, do not like that bit of information AT ALL; it's positively unbearable.
Thank you for your time- I'll add something more about this at a later date, possibly in 10 minutes.
-Neiko

Sitting here...

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 15:17:00 +0000

Casually typing out a brand new post, while our guest speaker Megan Riley is teaching the other students about how to blog.
I'm glad that I made mine early, it grants me more time to just post now, when I have time to.
I realize that I don't type out about anything that's "life-changing," But, Soon I will... and you will be amazed at my opinions and facts.
They aren't the disturbing, gut-wrenching, terror inducing opinions...
They are simply the way I view things.
Ah, this blog has changed in atmosphere, has it not? Thank you for your quick response.
So, I shall end this now... This blog seems to not make much sense.
-Neiko

This Is Where It All Comes Down.

noreply@blogger.com (Neiko) — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 18:53:00 +0000

Attention, this is my first blog for this website. And, I'd really like to introduce myself. My name is Neiko, that's basically all you need to know... for now.

Mostly what I blog about will be random things that either Irk me, or grant me some form of joy. So, it will be more personal to myself, and my opinions. So keep that in mind.

This is like the precursor to greatness that you need to read.

I am currently sitting in a school, though I've graduated earlier this year. I won't tell you the details of my current situation, as it is not that important. I don't know how much attention I will make with this, or how much I even want.

Today is the 9th of July, in the 9th year of the new century. Exciting, eh?

Well, this is where I will end this for now... I may throw up a new blog later, once I get some new ideas about what I really want to write about. Thank you.
