  • 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.

  • haven't updated xanga in forever..are people still into xanga?

    lots have happened since my last update..work life has begun..and for the last few weeks it's been gross. yesterday i got double pay because i worked over 12 hrs and felt great. but later that night felt pretty dead. my company shuts down from dec 24th to jan 1st. I was pretty happy about that until i found out that i have to go in to work for few days. my team and few others are in beeeeeg bojeejik trouble right now.

    people know how monotone i am and usually no face expression. I think these days i'm starting to realize that i should change that about myself more than ever. biggest reason is because i deal with all sorts of personality at work from different people. but my habit of mean tone and mean face expression hasn't really gone away..prolly got worse after starting to work cuz of stress. what sucks is i donno that i am doing that until someone points it out because to me i'm just being normal. so peoples..if i made it sound like i was yelling at you sometime or watever..my bad..i apologize..i think my gf can agree that i need to fix this..right meesh?

    i also totalled my tibby..some guy crashed into it from behind on the freeway..so i said bye to it and said hello to g35. i love it so far. but i don't think i can ever forget my tibby..say what u want about hyundais..that thing went through so many accidents...turbo HAHA..snow storms...sand storms at over 100 degrees...freakin freezing temperature of 12 degrees at night during winter...never ever died on me...hoepfully this new one will be that good too.

    being taken care of from my parents and living all alone is a different world. even in college my parents helped me out and didn't really have to worry much other than school...but now...it's like awakening...like a brick of wall hitting my head..."oh meh gesh..i caught a bird"...that kind of surprise...for couple months..i've been in panic mode a lot of times and stressing about everything..but u know...i'll survive..so i decided not to worry and live my life..god will provide..but just like everything else...u always miss something that you had..something that was good..in this case...using my parents money hahahaha..but it's time i grow i out of that..

    i wish i had an automatic food maker..or cooker...after a day at work..i DO NOT want to cook..eating out gets tiring too...

    happy holidays everyone..and i still haven't done any of christmas shopping yet and i am screwed big time..gonna have to walk around the mall with my elbows up so i can walk straight..seriously sometimes when there are lots of people at the mall, to the point where you can't take three steps without stopping..i just want to spin kick everyone that's in the 2 ft radius of me. but i probably shouldn't do that

    hope everyone gets good gifts and lots of family time

    god bless

  • NC Trip

    Good trip..pretty relaxing and had lots of fun with my cousin in NC. It was sad too though..my grandma passed away. Sucks the most for my grandpa..when he's been taking care of her for 10 years and he came to America for few weeks to rest and while he was here, our grandma passed away. We had to drive him to Atlanta so he can fly out to Korea with my cousin from england...it was a pretty sad trip..he should be in my house right now relaxing but now he's in korea...still really weird

    i miss my grandma's cooking..her shik heh that she made at home..soo good. she took care of me a lot when i was little and i did nothing for her when she was sick for 10 years. i felt horrible and felt the pain that i've never felt in my whole life until now. seriously losing someone that is close to you..no one knows that feeling until you go through it. no fun at all.

    my aunt told me that she was saved though..so it's a good thing..she's at a good place..a better place..so i should be happy for her but it's kinda hard..man..i should've gone to korea this summer instead of doing nothing for the month of may and june. all should've..could've and would've now..too late though.

    please pray for me and my whole family..especially my grandpa who's gonna be alone now..after 50 some years of marriage..man..can't even imagine his feelings. hope he comes to america and lives here. and my mom too..she couldn't even go because her passport was expired..she was getting ready to get an american passport after getting her citizenship..sucks..

    it's been getting better though. i think the fact that she was saved is what's making it little bit easier for us to get better..

    i love you grandma

    on to something not so sad

    i got pretty dark after the trip i think. the weather there is little bit hotter than ca but way more humid. it was good to see my cousins again. the girl cousin grew so much in 2 years. i was shocked. same with the cousin from england..i saw him 4 years ago and back then he didn't even have a manly voice. he's so tall now..crazy how people grow so fast..i wonder if that's how it was for me..this trip made me realize how important family members are..even cousins

    so..last week of freedom..monday i start work. crazy huh? it was a period filled with relaxation. too much maybe..but it's one of those things where i know i say it now but like a month into work i would say other wise. i bet you after first month i would be saying "no such thing as too much relaxation".

    that's all for now i guess. is it just me or do i have michelle's smile on that last picture?

  • I've been doing nothing ever since graduation. All i do is wake up, eat, wash and then look for jobs. Some days i go to la to see michelle but other days, i spend my time helping around the house or something.

    Thanks to people that came on saturday. It was really fun. Thanks for the craziest desktop picture to benjie.

    today michelle came to my house to drop me off. we were talking and she was shooting the nerf gun. So we were playing with it and then we decided to shoot at each other. Look at my crazy aim on this shot

    I really wanted to see if i can make it stick onto her glasses haha. i'm jacked. my laugh is also very awkward

    michelle's turn

    sneaky..she shot me so close to my head

    we're funny people

    so...guess what i am doing tomorrow and then the day after and the day after

    NOTHING
