long time no xanga.
So it’s been a year since I’ve started working. one step closer to understanding the whole process of 40+ hours of work every week and being a slave to work. some of my coworkers who have been with the company for 20+ years are practically my parents’ age if not older and have A LOT of experience in the engineering field, which is why I probably learned more in this first year or so than what I did in school for 4 years. Compared to them I’m a child though. Experience wise and literally also. Because they have sons and daughters that are either older or same age as me. That also sometimes puts me in a very tough situation because I get the last piece of the cake all the time. Stressful but in return I get to learn so much so I’m thankful.
So that’s how my work has been for the first year in a nutshell. Enough about work.
If you know me well, I am addicted to engine/power/speed and all that goodies like alex kang is addicted to milk. Wait..maybe not that bad..but pretty bad. it’s probably what I love the most after god, my family/friends/gf. Michelle might not agree with me but that’s how it is.
I think my dad regrets the fact that he taught me about cars at such a young age. My parents told me that as a little boy in korea I knew the names of all cars on the road. Back then korea didn’t really have much variety of cars but still..i was like 5 or 6..such a weird boy I was. So I got into cars and wanted a fast car when I graduated from college. My parents of course tried to stop me but nope. now I get to enjoy my 300+ horsepower car but in return I get to pay some mulas every month. Idiot
Too bad I am in traffic most of the time with that much power. Again..idiot
Up until recently, I used to think motorcycle riders were crazy, going in and out of traffic in between cars. I always kept myself from getting into motorcycles because it was too danjer for me. But traffic everyday for one year and gas prices have led me to do some research about different motorcycle and now…I am hooked like a fish. I want one NOW. 50 miles per gallon. Sweet.
So I guess it’s pretty obvious to me now that anything with wheels and engine, I can get hooked. Am I going to get a motorcycle? I bet..Probably sometime in the future..am I going to regret? Mmm..i donno..gas price..probably not. am I going to die? Probably from my parents before anything happens to me on a motorcycle..but I’ll have all my gears on so when they punch me I won’t feel a thing..
Why do I like this stuff so much I don’t get it…it’s a hobby or like my interest or something but really really really expensive. At least motorcycles are cheap. Maybe I’ll get a scooter instead with those matching color helmets.
But at the same time, I can see my interest in that area dying a little bit. Like very little. So little that you can’t really tell. Jk. But honestly, even when I’m on a free road, I don’t drive like a maniac. I thought I would but somehow I don’t feel the urge/need to as I used to. Maybe cuz I’m getting older and more mature? That’s a good thing I guess.
Olympics.
So amajing in Beijing right now I don’t even know what to write about it. Especially now that taekwondo started. WHOO! I rove eet. If you’re into it u know but this year America has 3 siblings competing in it for golds. All in different wait classes and one is a girl. First two went yesterday but didn’t get the golds. Silver and bronze. I watched it last night online because nbc doesn’t like taekwondo and never show it on tv. Bastards.
But anyways, so exciting. My heart was pumping all fast even though I was just sitting down watching it..
I think my habit of writing whatever is on my mind on xanga hasn’t changed. But that’s what we all do right? Ain’t nothing wrong with that..you feel me?
Watching tropic thunder where Robert Downey Jr. plays a black soldier so so well obviously rubbed off on my a little.
Props to anyone who read this whole blog.
