Awwwww Man

2008-03-20T13:51:00.001-07:00

Do you know when you have that feeling of…… Awww man.
Here is my TOP 5 LIST for “Awww man” situations.

5. When you go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and there is no toilet paper.
4. When you go to get dressed and find you have no more clean underwear.
3. When you get to work and realize you did not put on deodorant on. The rest of the day is spent feeling paranoid of your body odor.
2. When you go to the bathroom 4 hours after lunch and look in the mirror and realize that lunch is still in your teeth.
1. When you walk out the house and you realize you put on "THOSE" socks. The socks that are just too short, the ones that always fall off. And every step you take you are reminded of ‘THOSE” socks . AWWWW MANNNN.

End of the Week

2008-03-12T17:45:00.000-07:00

Happy Friday everyone! Hope everyone had a good week. To sum up my week it was pretty uneventful - just the normal errands. By the way did you know that stamps are all first class now? They never expire, you can always use them. The upside... You don't always have to get that .01 cent stamp to add on to the.39 cent stamp. The downside .....they can hike up the prices on stamps rapidly.

So currently I have this nagging cold that I think has gone away and I wake up and there it is again. Cough in the morning, clear my throat, that weird nasty noise you make with your nose to get the mucus out. (Victoria sorry you have to hear this every morning), etc. What annoys me about this cold is not even that I have one, is that I think it is gone when I go to bed, but then I wake up and all this junk is sitting in my head that was not there last night. What can I compare it to... it's really like gas prices. One day you wake up and it is $3.25 (I live in CA, that is low) you do not need gas just yet, so you wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow you wake up to gas prices are around $3.75. At this point you need gas so you have to suck it up and buy it as this crazy rate... The next day you wake up and gas prices are at $3.50. This annoying fluctuation of prices is such a burden on the the wallet and your emotions. Just like my cold, I go to bed feeling like a $3.25 a gallon cold, but I wake up with a $3.75 gallon cold. The point is... this nagging cold is annoying and so are gas prices because they are NOT CONSISTENT.

Hope you laugh as hard as you can today. Have a great day and weekend. Do something nice for the person you love.

Business Trips

2008-03-11T17:30:00.000-07:00

I think everyone can agree, if you are currently living with a significant other or roommate (you get along with) you never really like when they have to go away. You miss the company, their presence in the home, all the fun stuff that comes along with sharing a house together, however what comes with living with people are the courtesies you must have. You have to be considerate and respectful of your fellow dweller. You have to know that taking the last piece of toast without asking is going to affect someone. Not refilling the toilet paper is going to leave someone stranded on the toilet.
NOW this is why I love when they go away on business trips ...

It is not too bad because it is only a day or so the one you love, live with, share housing with is gone- but in this day you can do whatever you want that you would not normally do. Leave your wet robe on the bed, have your dishes wherever you ate last, not having to clean the coffee pot right after you are done, listening to the same song over and over again and thinking you sing it better, keeping the bed a mess, and so many more fun things. Now I do not want to sound like I live with a tyrant, I do not and half the things I listed are my own pet peeves. But knowing that no one is going to be affected by this reckless behavior for a day or two --- I feel so rebellious. Well yes I will keep my clothes on the floor and walk away. I will keep the television on in one room and turn the other television on in the other. That is your shirt, but today it will be mine. I will drink the last diet coke and not replace it. Just for one day, you have to love it. You should only be this reckless for a day or else you will develop bad habits. So this is my positive spin on business trips. (only for a day)

My First Blog

2008-03-10T07:42:00.000-07:00

Hello All and Welcome,

As you all know or some of you know my brother has a blog, so I thought since I do everything that he does, why not start a blog of my own. The reason this idea of starting my own blog sold me is because my brother said it was "Therapeutic." Let's see if he is right. I think we all need therapy. I do not care how normal you think you are, you need therapy. Everyone needs therapy. It does not even have to be the traditional type of therapy like sitting in front of a psychologist or psychiatrist... it could be writing a blog, having a journal, getting a massage, but something on a consistent basis that feels therapeutic. I recommend it. And if I recommend it you should go do it right now!

So I should start off my first blog by telling you kind and loyal readers something about myself. I am 28 that looks like an 18 year old (thank goodness asians age well). I have a nuclear family. One Mother, One Father, and a dog. Just Kidding... an amazing brother. * WARNING: I will be refering to and making fun of my Brother a lot [http://sonarak.blogspot.com]. He is my inspiration for many things in my life, so get use to him. Moving on. ...My family, I have one of the most amazing families in the entire world. We eat a lot, we talk over each other because we are so vain (well I talk over Sonarak), we make fun of each other (sometimes people go home being upset but cant tell us or we will make fun of them more), and we talk about nothing. We do not talk politics, we do not bring up religion or my father will go get his book on buddhism, we somewhat talk about sports, but we do not talk about much more than that. We talk about each other and that topic alone lasts forever.
So lets sum up some other fun facts about me... up to this point it has been somewhat generic.

1) I love soccer (womans more than mens- free to make jokes)
2) I am deathly allergic to shrimp
3) I hate dolls that can close their eyes
4) I can not watch lifetime movies past 8:oo PM
5) I can only drink Jack Daniels because I have the asian curse
6) I beat my brother once in the basketball game 21 in my lifetime
7) I hate wearing dresses
8) I have adult ADHD
9) I am buddhist
10) I love Ronnie my Hotima

Thank you Sonarak for the idea. Have a great Day everyone and hope you smile and laugh as much as you can today.
