THE FOREIGNER

SPOILER ALERT!!!

JACKIE CHAN IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS TIME IN THE FOREIGNER. THE MOVIE ALSO STARS OTHER HEAVY HITTER AND THE NONE OTHER 007 PIERCE BROSNAN. THE REST OF THE CAST MEH... BASICALLY JACKIES DAUGHTER GETS KILLED IN AN EXPLOSION WHICH THE IRA CLAIMS CREDIT FOR AND JACKIE WANTS HIS REVENGE. PIERCE IS THE IRISH DEPUTY MINSTER AND JACKIE WANTS THE NAMES OF THOSE WHO DID THIS. THEN ITS JUST A WHOLE BUNCH OF CAT AND MOUSE UNTIL JACKIE GOES ALL JACKIE ON THEM. THE TRUTH FINALLY COMES OUT AND WE FIND OUT WHO IS BEHIND IT ALL. I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHEN WAS JACKIES LAST ENGLISH MOVIE, THEN I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A BUNCH OF KUNG FU PANDA... WHICH I DIDNT WATCH ANY OF THEM HAHA. SO TECHNICALLY THE LAST ONE WAS THE SPY NEXT DOOR AND THAT WAS MORE OF THE CLASSIC JACKIE. THERE WERE CHINESE MOVIES IN BETWEEN BUT BASICALLY ITS BEEN A WHILE. THIS JACKIE ISNT THE CLASSIC JOKING FUNNY COMEDY FIGHT SEQUENCE JACKIE, IT WAS SERIOUS REVENGE STRAIGHT TO THE POINT JACKIE. ITS DIFFERENT AND IT WAS INTERESTING TO WATCH. THERE ISNT AS MUCH ACTION IN THIS ONE THAN HIS OLD FILMS, BUT THATS PROBABLY BECAUSE HES GETTING OLD... THERES DEFINITELY MORE TALKING. ONE THING IS THAT JACKIES CHARACTER HAS MORE OF A VIET NAME THAN CHINESE, EVEN THOUGH HES SUPPOSE TO BE CHINESE. ALSO THE MOVIE WAS BASED ON THE BOOK "THE CHINAMAN" AND THEY MADE TONS OF REFERENCE TO THE TITLE BY CALLING HIM THE CHINAMAN THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE. IT WAS PRETTY FUNNY AND REMINDED, ME OF ROMEO MUST DIE WHERE ANTHONY ANDERSON KEPT CALLING JET LI - DIM SUM LOL. ONE OTHER THING IS THAT YOU ARE SAYING THE WHOLE UK POLICE FORCE COULDNT FIND THESE GUYS WHO BOMBED THE PLACE BUT AN OLD CHINAMAN COULD? WITH ALL THE TECHNOLOGY, YOU STILL GOT BEAT BY ONE MAN. HOW MUCH DID YOU SPEND ON THIS... IT DOESNT MATTER SINCE JACKIE FOUND THEM NO PROBLEM. ALSO IT SEEMS THE COPS WERE FINE KILLING THAT PERSON AND ALSO FINE WITH JUST WATCHING THE JACKIE WHO ALSO KILLED A BUNCH OF PEOPLE. JUST MINOR THINGS I GUESS... LOL. ANYWAYS THE MOVIE WAS FUN, DIFFERENT, INTERESTING, SUSPENSEFUL, AND HAD ACTION. I LIKED IT, AND I GIVE THIS MOVIE A 8.2/10.

WORK WORK WORK. LIFES BASICALLY THAT EXCEPT THIS WEEKEND IM GONNA HEAD SOUTH WITH GF TO HAVE A SMALL VACA. CANT TELL YOU ALL WHAT WE DOING SINCE SHES PROBABLY GOING TO READ THIS... SOOOO HAAAA :) YOULL ALL FIND OUT NEXT WEEK. GOODNIGHT.

YOU NEED TO FAIL TO SUCCEED

EVERYONE FAILS AT SOMETHING AT SOME POINT IN THEIR LIFE AND I BELIEVE THAT HELPS YOU GROW AS A PERSON. ITS IMPORTANT TO FAIL!!! IT IS THEN, WHEN YOU ARE ABLE TO PICK YOURSELF UP AND KEEP GOING. YOU LEARN A LOT WHEN YOU FAIL AT SOMETHING. YOU LEARN WHERE YOU WENT WRONG, WHERE YOU CAN DO BETTER, AND WHERE YOUR STRENGTHS ARE. FROM THERE YOU CAN ONLY GO UP... SINCE YOU ALREADY WERE DOWN... LOL. PEOPLE WHO SAY THEY HAVE NEVER FAILED AT SOMETHING ARE JUST LYING TO THEMSELVES. THEY ALL HAVE FAILED SOMETHING... EVEN IF ITS JUST A SMALL THING. AS FOR THOSE WHO CLAIM THAT THEY HAVENT FAILED OR WILL NEVER FAIL... WELL GUESS WHAT... JUST LIKE THEY SAY "THE BIGGER YOU ARE, THE HARDER YOU FALL" AND ITS TRUE. IF YOU ALWAYS SUCCEED AT SOMETHING OR ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT... WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FINALLY FAIL? THOSE PEOPLE WILL JUST BE DESTROYED, IT WILL HIT THEM HARDER, AND THEY WONT BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT. FAILING HELPS SHAPE YOU, IT HELPS YOU GROW, AND HELPS TURN YOU INTO THE PERSON THAT YOU ARE. IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE TO FAIL, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO FULLY APPRECIATE WHAT IT IS LIKE TO SUCCEED. 

FINALLY BACK TO A ON TOPIC POST LOL. ITS GOING TO BE A SHORT ONE SINCE IM TIRED, NEED TO SLEEP, HAVE WORK IN THE MORNING, AND HAVE MY MIDTERM TOMORROW AS WELL. SO GOODNIGHT EVERYONE :)

APPARENTLY YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TURN RIGHT AT THIS CERTAIN AREA BETWEEN 3-7PM... I HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE... IM NEW TO THE AREA EVERYONE TURNS THERE. I HAD NO IDEA THAT YOU COULD NOW AND THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME TURNED AND THE CARS BEHIND ME TURNED... SOOOO HOW NICE OF THE OFFICER TO BE COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL TOWARDS ME JUST BECAUSE I DIDNT KNOW WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT... ALSO THE FACT THAT HE SINGLED ME OUT... SO HERE GOES THE DISPUTE PROCESS AGAIN... WAY TO RUIN PEOPLES DAY... WAY TO BE A DICK ABOUT IT... WAY TO BE TOTALLY AND UTTERLY DISRESPECTFUL ABOUT IT... AND NOW IM PISSED.

SO SCHOOL FINALLY STARTED :) THERES ABOUT 15 PEOPLE IN THE CLASS AND YOU CAN ALREADY TELL WHOS GOING TO BE TALKATIVE AND WHOS GONNA BE QUIET. ALSO THERE IS 1 PERSON I KNOW JUST CAUSE WE TOOK A CLASS TOGETHER BEFORE BUT THAT WAS A LONG LONGGGGGGG TIME AGO. IT SEEMS INTERESTING AND GUESS WE SHALL SEE HOW IT GOES TOMORROW.

CONNECTIONS / FINALLY MOVING UP

SO THE TIME IS FINALLY HERE!!! AFTER WAITING SOOOOO LONG I FINALLY GOT TO WHERE I WANT TO BE :) THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT I ACCEPTED A JOB OFFER LAST WEEK AND I START THE NEW JOB NEXT WEEK :) ALL THAT WAITING HAS FINALLY PAID OFF!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! PATIENCE!!! SO ANYWAYS I WENT TO AN INTERVIEW LAST THURSDAY AND DID IT MOSTLY IN CHINESE... THEN GET CALLED ON FRIDAY AND ACCEPTED THE NEXT DAY. WOW THAT WAS FAST EH. SO UNFORTUNATELY THAT MEANS THAT I HAD TO LET MY CURRENT JOB KNOW... FUNNY THING IS I WALKED IN AND I HEAR MY COLLEAGUE SAYING THAT SHES GIVING HER 2 WEEKS NOTICE... AND IM THINKING AHHHH CRAP... I HAVE TO LET THEM KNOW IM LEAVING TOO HAHA. SOOOO I WAITED A WHILE THEN TOLD THEM... LETS JUST SAY THEY WERE HAPPY FOR ME AND AT THE SAME TIME THEY WERE SAD THAT IM LEAVING. SEE THE PROBLEM IS THAT I WAS UNABLE TO GIVE THEM THE 2 WEEKS NOTICE... I SORTA GAVE THEM 2 DAYS NOTICE... SORTA NOT MY FAULT... CAUSE THEY JUST WANT ME IN THAT QUICK. I REALLY HATE DOING IT LIKE THIS BUT IT JUST HAPPENED. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY THAT I CANT PASS UP AND IT CAN LEAD TO SOMETHING REALLY GREAT :) I REALLY WILL MISS EVERYONE THERE CAUSE WE HAD LOTS OF FUN, AND I REALLY DID LEARN A LOTTTT FROM THAT POSITION... BUT IVE WAITED A LONG TIME FOR THIS. NOW I CAN FINALLY SAY IVE MADE IT. ALL I GOTTA DO NOW IS WORK IT TIL I CAN MOVE ON UP AND IT WILL BE EVEN BETTER HEHE. THINGS ARE FINALLY LOOKING UP :)

IN THIS AGE IT HONESTLY IS ABOUT YOUR CONNECTIONS AND WHO YOU KNOW. THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW SOMEONE OR KNOW SOMEONE WHO KNOWS SOMEONE CAN HELP YOU OUT THAT MUCH. ALSO, YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER VANCOUVER IS SMALL SO YOU NEVER KNOW WHO KNOWS WHO... THAT IS WHY IN EVERY RELATIONSHIP BOTH PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL I TRY TO KEEP EVERYTHING GOOD, EVEN IF IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN BAD AT THE END OR WHATNOT. I WOULD LIKE TO END THINGS ON A GOOD NOTE BECAUSE YOU REALLY DO NOT KNOW WHO KNOWS WHO AND WHETHER OR NOT THE PERSON WOULD OR COULD HELP YOU IN THE FUTURE. SO AN ADVICE I WOULD GIVE TO YOU ALL IS TO NEVER BURN THE BRIDGE!!! JOBS THESE DAYS LOTS MOST OF THEM ARE WORD OF MOUTH AND NOT EVEN POSTED... SO HOW DO YOU HEAR ABOUT THEM? FROM PEOPLE YOU KNOW. WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DONT GET ALONG WITH SOMEONE AND THEY HAVE SOMETHING THAT IS PERFECT FOR YOU? WELL GUESS WHAT? THEY WONT BE TELLING YOU LOL. REFERENCES SAME THING, YOU NEED A REFERENCE? WELL GUESS WHAT THEY GONNA SAY IF YOU WERE HORRIBLE TO THE OTHER PERSON OR BAD MOUTHED THEM? YOU DONT KNOW WHO IN THE FUTURE CAN HELP YOU OR WHO YOU MIGHT NEED.

OHHHHH I ACCEPT THAT CHALLENGE!!! LOL. WELL ALSO CAUSE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IM GOING TO WRITE SO ITS GONNA BE ALL GOOD HEHE.

SOCCER IS BACK AND ENDURANCE IS STARTING TO COME BACK :) STARTING TO LAST LONGER ON THE FIELD AND GETTING THAT SPEED BACK. HAVENT SCORED A GOAL YET BUT ITS EARLY IN THE SEASON AND WE JUST GOT BACK AFTER THE SUMMER BREAK SO GIVE IT A BIT OF TIME.

SO HERES SOMETHING THAT PISSES ME OFF!!! I BOUGHT MY SEASONS TICKET AND EVERYONE WAS GOING... NOW CAUSE 1 OF THE DJS ARENT COMING IT NOW TURNED LAME SO PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING AND SELLING THEIR TICKET. FUNNY PART IS THAT THEY ARE STILL SELLING IT AT TWICE THE PRICE... WHICH PEOPLE ARE STILL GOING TO PAY TO GO... SO SAY I GOT IT AT $75... NOW ONLINE PEOPLE SELLING AT $150... O.O'' YOU KIDDING ME... AND THEN ARMIN WHICH WAS $100-$120 NOW PEOPLE SELLING AT $250... TOMMY TRASH $35 IS GOING FOR $90-$100... ADVENTURE CLUB $35 GOING FOR $80-$100... AND THE REST IS LIKE THAT TOO... WOW... BUT SINCE MY FRIENDS ARENT GOING SEASONS AND IM SELLING MY TICKET, WITH THE PROFIT I CAN GO TO TOMMY TRASH SINCE I FOUND A CHEAP TICKET LOL. IF THE PRICES STAYED THE SAME MY 1 TICKET COULD HAVE GOTTEN ME LIKE 3 SHOWS AND STILL HAD SOME EXTRA MONEY LEFTOVER LOL. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WE ALL QUIT PARTYING AND WHEN THE TICKETS CAME OUT WE DIDNT BOTHER GETTING ANY OF THEM... BUT NOW SOMEHOW... WE ALL STARTED PARTYING MORE AGAIN AND DECIDED LAST MIN TO GO TO SHOWS THAT ARE SOLD OUT AND COST AN ARM AND A LEG... ARGGGG. BLA!!! WELL... TIME TO GO HUNTING FOR CHEAP TICKETS LOL.

BE HAPPY EVERYONE :) THERES ALWAYS SOMETHING TO BE HAPPY ABOUT. IF IT DOESNT SEEM LIKE THERE IS CURRENTLY, JUST WAIT. IN TIME EVERYTHING WILL WORK ITSELF OUT. EVENTUALLY... POSITIVELY... WILL WORK OUT.
