PET LOVERS

ONE THING I NEVER UNDERSTOOD IS HOW PEOPLE GO SO CRAZY FOR THEIR PETS. I DONT MEAN THE PEOPLE WHO JUST LOVE THEIR PETS, IM TALKING ABOUT THE OVER THE TOP LOVE THEM AND BUYS THEM EVERYTHING. SOME PEOPLE BUY CLOTHES FOR THEM THATS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN WHAT THEY HAVE THEMSELVES. SOME HAVE PERSONAL CHEFS FOR THEIR PETS. SOME TAKE THEM TO SPAS. SOME TAKE THEM ON TRIPS ON PRIVATE PLANES. SOME EVEN HAVE THEIR OWN STAFF... DID YOU KNOW THAT IN THE UNITED STATES ALONE PET OWNERS SPENT OVER $70 BILLION DOLLARS LAST YEAR ON THEM? DID YOU KNOW THAT SOME PEOPLE LOVE THEIR PETS SO MUCH THAT THEY ARE EVEN WRITTEN INTO THEIR WILL? I READ AN ARTICLE A WHILE BACK ABOUT THE RICHEST PETS IN THE WORLD, IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD AS WELL... ANYWAYS... SOME OWNERS LOVED THEM SO MUCH, WHEN THEY DIED, THEY LEFT THEM EVERYTHING. IM NOT TALKING ABOUT A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY... IM TALKING ABOUT MILLIONS!!! THE RICHEST PET WAS A DOG AND THE OWNER WILLED IT NOT JUST MILLIONS, BUT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS. THE DOG HAS PLANES, HOUSES ALL OVER THE WORLD, STAFF, CHEFS, AND EVERYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF. I MEAN... THATS JUST OVERKILL... IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE. YOU COULD HAVE JUST GIVEN A FEW MILLION TO THE DOG AND THE REST DONATED IT OR DONE SOMETHING ELSE WITH IT. THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY COULD HAVE HELPED A LOT OF PEOPLE. SOME PEOPLE JUST DONT MAKE SENSE. IVE PERSONALLY NEVER HAD A CAT OR A DOG, BUT IVE HAD SOME FISHES AND A COUPLE OF TURTLES. I GET THAT PETS BECOME PART OF THE FAMILY, BUT WHAT THOSE PEOPLE DO IS BEYOND UNDERSTANDING. SOME PEOPLE TREAT THEIR PETS BETTER THAN HOW THEY TREAT THEIR OWN KIDS... ITS A STRANGE STRANGE WORLD OUT THERE. THE WORSE PART IS THAT THE PETS DONT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE, THEY CANT COMPREHEND WHAT IS HAPPENING. DOES A PET REALLY NEED HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS? NOT LIKE IT CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE OF 100 MILLION TO 300 MILLION... BUT MAN... I REALLY COULD USE A COUPLE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS LOL. OF COURSE THIS IS ABOUT THE EXTREMES AND NOT EVERYONE IS LIKE THIS. SO HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE PETS AND HOW EXTREME DO YOU TAKE THIS? LET ME KNOW.

UPDATE

SO... ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE IVE UPDATED EVERYONE ON EVERYTHING. I KNOW SOMETIMES THERE MIGHT BE A LINE OR TWO ABOUT WHATS GOING ON BUT HAVENT REALLY SAID MUCH MORE THAN THAT. MAIN REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE IM TIRED AND LAZY LOL. ALSO BECAUSE THERES NOT MUCH MORE TO TELL THAN THAT... HONESTLY... JUST BEEN BUSY WORKING AND GETTING REST. I COME HOME AND IM TIRED AND THEN SOMETIMES WHEN I DO THIS ITS LATE. THATS WHY THE POST SOUNDS LIKE THE WAY IT SOUNDS. SOMETIMES I JUST WOKE UP FROM A NAP LOL. I KNOW I COULD POST THIS EARLIER BUT ITS JUST SO HARD SOMETIMES. YES YES THERES A TWSS RIGHT THERE. THE OTHER REASON IS BECAUSE I DONT HAVE MUCH TO WRITE ABOUT. I SAID IT BEFORE, THAT THERES ACTUALLY QUITE A FEW TOPICS I WANT TO WRITE ABOUT, BUT I JUST DONT HAVE THE TIME OR ENGERY TO DO IT. THATS WHY I END UP WRITING MOVIE REVIEWS BECAUSE ITS QUICK AND EASY. IF I ONLY WROTE POSTS ABOUT THE MEANINGFUL TOPICS, THEN THE POSTS WOULD NOT BE WEEKLY AND I WOULD RUN OUT OF MATERIAL QUICKLY. THE ODDS ARE THAT THE POST WOULD HAVE MORE DEPTH AND QUALITY COMPARED TO WHAT IM PUMPING OUT RIGHT NOW LOL. I MEAN THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH WHAT IM POSTING RIGHT NOW, ITS JUST THAT YOU CAN SEE THE QUALITY DROPPING THESE FEW YEARS COMPARED TO THE EARLY DAYS AKA THE FIRST FEW YEARS LOL. THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WRITE EVERY WEEK FOR THE PAST 7+ YEARS... IVE ALSO SAID THAT IM NOT SURE IF IM GOING TO KEEP THIS BLOG GOING AND THAT IM WORKING ON SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE BETTER. I REALLY DONT KNOW WHERE I AM WITH THAT. I LOOKED INTO IT BUT IT WOULD EITHER TAKE MORE TIME OR I WOULD HAVE TO POST LESS. THERES A LOT TO CONSIDER... I WOULD BASICALLY HAVE TO RESTART FROM THE BEGINNING IF I END UP DOING IT THIS CERTAIN WAY. IT WOULD BE A LOT OF REBUILDING. IT WOULD BE A CHALLENGE BUT IT WOULD BE FUN TO DO LOL. SO I GUESS IN THE MEANTIME YOU WILL GET WHAT YOU GET UNTIL I FIGURE THIS OUT LOL. ANY SUGGESTIONS? LOL.

SO WHAT HAVE I BEEN UP TO THEN? WELL... BEEN WORKING, CATCHING UP ON SHOWS AND MOVIES, PLAYING MJ, HANGING OUT WITH FAMILY AND THE NEPHEW, HANGING OUT WITH FRIENDS, AND WORKING ON RANDOM THINGS. ITS QUIET THESE DAYS. NOT MUCH REALLY TO DO AND NOT MUCH I REALLY WANT TO DO. MAN... I NEED A VACATION... I NEED A PERMANENT VACATION LOL. UNTIL THEN... BACK TO THE GRIND.

THATS ROUGH

SO TOTALLY GOING TO LIVE UP TO THE NAME OF RANDOMNESS TODAY. BASICALLY MY FAMILY HAS BEEN HAVING WEEKLY FAMILY DINNERS SINCE MY NEPHEWS BEEN BORN. I GET TO SEE MY NEPHEW AND HANG OUT AND PLAY WITH HIM. PLUS GET TO HAVE DINNER WITH EVERYONE AND JUST CHILL OUT. SINCE THIS ONE RESTAURANT WAS HAVING RENOVATIONS, WE ENDED UP TRYING DIFFERENT PLACES. THIS ONE CHINESE PLACE WAS ALRIGHT AND WE WENT BACK A COUPLE OF TIMES. FIRST TIME THERE WERE 2 TABLES IN THERE. SECOND TIME THERE WAS NO ONE, AND LAST WEEK THERE WAS NO ONE EITHER. I JUST GO IN TO PICK UP TAKEOUT. I DONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THEM NOT BEING BUSY BUT THAT MUST BE ROUGH. AN ENTIRE NIGHT WITHOUT A CUSTOMER, OR JUST ONE. YOUR OVERHEAD WOULD BE KILLING YOU. TAKE PAY AND ALL THAT OUT AND JUST SAY ITS A FAMILY BUSINESS. MY ONE TAKEOUT ISNT GOING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LONG RUN. MY QUESTION IS HOW THE HELL DO THEY SURVIVE... THERE IS A TON OF CHINESE RESTAURANTS NEARBY AND THEY ALL SELLING THE SAME THING. HOW DO THEY SURVIVE. LETS JUST SAY THEY ARE ALL LEGAL AND UNDER THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES. CHINESE RESTAURANTS ARE USUALLY QUIETER ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY, DEPENDS WHERE WEDNESDAY IS A HIT OR MISS. WEEKEND AND SO ON SHOULD BE BUSY. THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS WHERE THEY ARE JUST BUSY ALL THE TIME. THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS IS DO ANY OF YOU EVER FEEL SAD FOR THEM? FOR EXAMPLE YOU SEE THEM WITH NO CUSTOMERS AND ITS SUPER QUIET. IT ALMOST MAKES YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND TRY TO HELP, BUT THAT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE. HOW DO YOU DETERMINE WHO GETS HELP AND SO FORTH. YA IT SUCKS THAT NOT EVERY PLACE CAN BE BUSY AND MAKING MONEY BUT THERES JUST TOO MANY OF THEM. WE DIDNT END UP GOING THAT PLACE, WE WENT TO A NEW PLACE, BUT I WONDER WHAT THAT RESTAURANT THINK... I WONDER IF THEY WERE ASKING WHERE I WAS...

THE SAME GOES TO BUSINESSES. YOU KNOW SOMETIMES YOU SEE BUSINESSES AND YOU THINK "HOW ON EARTH ARE THEY SURVIVING" ITS THE SAME AS ABOVE. ITS HARD TO BE SUCCESSFUL. ITS JUST ROUGH. THEN THERES THE OTHER TYPE OF BUSINESS AND YOU JUST THINK THEY SHOULDNT BE IN BUSINESS LOL. NOT QUITE IF THIS MADE SENSE SINCE I JUST WOKE UP FROM A NAP AND IM HELLA TIRED. BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN HELP EVERYONE, AND ITS KINDA SUCKS BECAUSE YOU CANT HELP THEM. THEN AGAIN HOW MUCH CAN YOU REALLY HELP... AND YOURE STILL BUSY HELPING YOURSELF.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

WELL I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY. IT FELL ON AN INTERESTING DAY THIS YEAR AND LETS JUST SAY WE ENDED UP GETTING 5 DAYS OFF. NICE TO JUST RELAX AND HANG OUT. I THINK IVE SAID THIS BEFORE... IM PRETTY SURE I SAID IT BEFORE... CHRISTMAS SEEMS LIKE ITS GETTING QUIETER AND QUIETER EACH YEAR. IT SEEMS LIKE THERES LESS AND LESS THINGS GOING ON AND PEOPLE DO LESS AND LESS. PERSONALLY ME AND MY FAMILY HAVE NEVER BEEN BIG INTO THE WHOLE CHRISTMAS THING. WE HAVE NEVER HAD A TREE AND WE HAVE NEVER DONE ONE OF THOSE BIG FAMILY PARTY. I MEAN WEVE BEEN TO FAMILY PARTIES BEFORE BUT WE NEVER HOSTED THEM... THEN AGAIN WE LIVE IN AN APARTMENT SO THERES THAT LOL. EVEN WHEN WE LIVED IN A HOUSE WE NEVER HAD A TREE, WE NEVER HAD A FAKE ONE EITHER, OR A SMALL ONE. IT WAS NEVER REALLY A THING FOR US, ALSO SINCE WE CHINESE. ALTHOUGH ONE YEAR OUR NEIGHBOUR DID COME OVER DRESSED AS SANTA AND GAVE ME PRESENTS LOL. ALSO, I WAS NEVER ONE OF THOSE KIDS THAT BELIEVED IN SANTA EITHER. TRUE STORY... WHEN I WAS YOUNG, I DONT REMEMBER WHEN OR HOW OLD... I THINK IT WAS AT SCHOOL, I BASICALLY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO SANTA AND SANTA DIDNT EXIST. LETS JUST SAY SOME KID CRIED LOL. IT WAS SOME WHITE KID. CHRISTMAS IS SUCH A WHITE THING TOO. YOU NEVER REALLY SEE OR HEAR OF OTHER CULTURES LIKE REALLY INTO SANTA. EVEN IF THEY ARE THEY ARE MORE WESTERNIZED IF ANYTHING. THE WHOLE HOLIDAY THING IS JUST LIKE ANY OTHER HOLIDAY. OUR FAMILY WAS NEVER BIG INTO IT AND IT DOESNT REALLY MATTER IF WE DO ANYTHING. WE CAN DO THINGS BEFORE OR EVEN AFTER THE ACTUAL THING. WE JUST DO WHAT WE WANT, WHEN WE WANT. I NEVER REALLY GOT PRESENTS EITHER AND I WAS FINE WITH THAT. UNLIKE HOW SOME OF THE KIDS I SEE THESE DAYS THAT GO CRAZY AND THEY GET A TON OF GIFTS. IT WAS NEVER REALLY ABOUT THAT FOR US. I DONT KNOW... YOU MIGHT SEE IT WEIRD, BUT THATS JUST MY FAMILY. EVERY FAMILY IS DIFFERENT. THIS YEAR WE WENT OVER TO MY BROTHERS PLACE AND HAD LUNCH AND HUNG OUT WITH THE NEPHEW. I SEE SOME PEOPLE MAKING IT REALLY BIG AND HAS TO BE A THING BUT THATS JUST NOT US.

TODAY WAS BOXING DAY AND AS BOXING DAY TRADITIONS GO, I GO TO THE MALL AND SEE HOW BAD IT IS. ONCE AGAIN, THE MALL WAS PACKED, AND THERES A TON OF PEOPLE. I DONT LIKE LINES AND I DONT LIKE CROWDS, AND THIS IS THE WORST DAY TO GO TO THE MALL. THERES REALLY NOT MUCH TO BUY AND LOTS OF STUFF ISNT EVEN ON SALE. EVEN IF IT IS IT MIGHT NOT FIT, THERES NO EXCHANGES, NO REFUNDS, LINE UPS, CANT TRY IT ON, AND SO ON AND SO ON. EVEN ELECTRONICS THERES NOT MUCH OF A SALE... THE SALE GOES ON TO AFTER THE NEW YEAR... SO WHY WOULD I BOTHER TO LINE UP AND FIGHT WITH PEOPLE WHEN I CAN GO TOMORROW OR THE DAY AFTER TO GET SOMETHING THAT DOESNT CHANGE PRICE... THERES REALLY NOTHING TO GET AND ITS NEVER REALLY WORTH IT. YOU MIGHT GET LUCKY AND FIND SOMETHING BUT OVERALL... ITS JUST A WASTE OF TIME.

OH YA THE WORK CHRISTMAS PARTY WAS A GREAT SUCCESS!!! EVERYONE HAD FUN WITH THE GAMES AND PRIZES AND EVERYTHING. I REALLY AM OUT OF IDEAS FOR GAMES NOW SO I ALREADY SAID IT, NEXT YEAR SOMEONE ELSE IS TAKING OVER LOL. WHOEVER IS TAKING OVER WILL HAVE BIG SHOES TO FILL LOL. IT WAS THE BIGGEST AND BEST PARTY EVER! OH AND FOR MY SECRET SANTA GIFT I GOT THIS COOL BUDDHA BOARD. ITS LIKE A ZEN THING AND YOU PAINT IT ON A STONE THING THAT DRIES AND THEN YOU CAN KEEP REUSING IT. SOMEONE KNOWS ME WELL. I WONDER WHO GOT ME THAT...

OH YA WATCHED THE MULE AS WELL. CLINT EASTWOOD, ALISON EASTWOOD, BRADLEY COOPER, LAURENCE FISHBURNE, ANDY GARCIA, MICHAEL PENA, AND A FEW OTHERS IN THIS MOVIE. BASICALLY CLINT IS OLD, AND A FAILED FATHER AND HUSBAND. HE TRIES TO HELP THE FAMILY OUT WITH MONEY AND HE DOES IT BY RUNNING DRUGS, HENCE THE MULE. HE DOES WELL AND ITS THE STORY OF HIM BEING A MULE. THE MOVIE IS BASED ON THE TRUE STORY ABOUT A 90 YEAR OLD DRUG SMUGGLER FOR THE CARTELS. THE MOVIE WAS ALRIGHT, THE ENDING COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. IT NEEDED MORE KILLING AND MORE INFO ON SOME OF THE OTHER STORY LINES. ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE CLINT HAS BEEN IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. I MEAN HES DONE STUFF BEHIND BUT IN FRONT ITS BEEN A WHILE. HE WAS BUSY WITH THIS ONE, HAVING PRODUCED, DIRECTED, AND STARRED IN IT. I GIVE THIS A 7.2-7.5/10. ITS CLINT!!! WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO SAY LOL, BUT YA IT COULD HAVE BEEN  BETTER.

LASTLY, THIS IS THE LAST POST OF 2018. CANT BELIEVE I MADE IT ANOTHER YEAR. WHAT HAPPENED IN 2018... WHO KNOWS LOL. 2019 SHOULD BE A BIG YEAR, I HOPE ITS A BIG YEAR, LETS MAKE IT A BIG YEAR! WISH EVERYONE A HAPPY NEW YEAR AND SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR.

PARTY PLANNING COMMITTEE

ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN WHERE IM IN CHARGE OF MY WORKS CHRISTMAS PARTY FESTIVITIES. I PLAN THE GAMES AND ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE NIGHT AS WELL AS THE GIFTS AND PRIZES. I AM THE ENTIRE PARTY PLANNING COMMITTEE AND THE SOCIAL COORDINATOR AS WELL LOL. THIS WILL BE MY 5TH YEAR DOING THIS AND MAN... IT DOES NOT GET ANY EASIER... MAINLY BECAUSE IM RUNNING OUT OF GAMES. EACH YEAR I TRY TO PLAN NEW GAMES TO PLAY AND THINGS TO DO. EVERY YEAR I ASK PEOPLE TO GIVE ME IDEAS... AND NO ONE EVER DOES. DONT ANYONE DARE THINK ITS EASY!!! THE GAMES HAVE TO BE FAIR FOR EVERYONE AND EVERYONE HAS TO BE ABLE TO PLAY IT. I GOT IN CRAP ONE YEAR FOR MAKING A GAME THAT WOULD BE EASIER FOR MORE WESTERNIZED PEOPLE, WHICH IT WASNT. EITHER WAY, IVE GONE THROUGH SO MANY GAMES THAT I REALLY DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE COULD BE PLAYED. IVE HAD TO RECYCLE A GAME OR TWO OVER THE YEARS JUST TO FILL IN TIME LOL. THE ISSUE IS IF I DONT DO IT, THEN NO ONE WILL, AND THEN THE DINNER WILL BE JUST THAT, A DINNER. THIS WAY IT GETS EVERYONE INVOLVED AND RELAXED A LITTLE. SOMETIMES I JUST WANT TO ENJOY MYSELF, BUT IM SUCH A GOOD PLANNER THAT I HAVE TO DO IT EACH YEAR. I ENJOY DOING THIS BUT AT THE SAME TIME I WOULDNT MIND SITTING BACK AND JUST ENJOYING MYSELF TOO. I CANT SAY MUCH ABOUT THE PARTY ON HERE RIGHT NOW, JUST IN CASE MY COWORKERS COME ON AND SEE THIS. HOWEVER, I WILL SAY, THAT THIS WILL BE THE BEST PARTY IN THE HISTORY OF THE COMPANY!!! THIS IS ALL GOING DOWN ON FRIDAY, SO I WILL UPDATE YOU ALL NEXT WEEK AS TO HOW IT WENT. ITS GOING TO GO GREAT! NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!

HMMM THATS WEIRD... USUALLY EACH POST GETS A FEW HUNDRED VIEWS BUT RECENTLY THE POSTS ARE ONLY SHOWING A COUPLE OF DOZEN VIEWS. WHATS GOING ON WITH THAT? OH GREAT... NOW I FORGOT WHAT I WAS ABOUT TO SAY... OOPS LOL

THE NEXT POST WILL BE AFTER CHRISTMAS, SO FROM EVERYONE HERE AT RICKYS RANDOMNESS, WE WISH YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.

HAPPY BDAY TO ME!!!

I JUST CHECKED TO SEE IF I HAVE EVER HAD A BDAY POST POSTED THE ACTUAL DATE OF MY BDAY. TURNS OUT MY BDAY IS USUALLY A DAY OR TWO BEFORE OR AFTER THE ACTUAL DATE, HOWEVER IF WE GO BACK TO 2012... I POSTED ON THE ACTUAL DATE LOL. NOTHING REALLY IMPORTANT, JUST THAT I WAS WONDERING, SO THAT KILLED SOME TIME LOL. IT WAS A NICE DAY. WORKED, THEN HAD FAMILY DINNER AT MY BROTHERS PLACE. I HAVE A FEELING WE GOING TO BE DOING THIS MORE OFTEN THAN GOING OUT LOL. AT LEAST FOR NOW UNTIL THE BABY IS A BIT BIGGER. I FIND MYSELF FORGETTING HOW OLD I ACTUALLY AM THESE DAYS... PROBABLY BECAUSE AFTER 30 IT JUST DOESNT REALLY MATTER ANYMORE HAHA. THE GF SET UP DINNER WITH MY FRIENDS THIS WEEKEND, SO THATS NICE. JUST WANT TO HAVE A CHILL THING, NOT REALLY INTO PARTYING HARD LIKE WE USE TO LOL.

SO THE PAST LONG WEEKEND I WENT INTO CALGARY WITH THE FAMILY FOR MY COUSINS WEDDING. ITS THE FIRST OF MY CLOSE COUSINS. FLEW IN ON THE FRIDAY, SAW EVERYONE AND GOT READY FOR THE BIG DAY. THE WEDDING DAY WAS A LONG DAY... AND I WASNT EVEN IN THE WEDDING LOL. WELL... I WAS IN THE FAMILY SO I GUESS I WAS IN THE WEDDING IN A SENSE LOL. IT WAS A NICE WEDDING, EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTHLY AND THE RECEPTION WAS FUN. THE LAMB RACKS WERE REALLY GOOD! NEXT DAY WE ALL JUST HUNG OUT AND WENT TO THE ZOO. HERES THE THING... I REALLY LIKE MEERKATS! I COULDNT FIND THEM AT THE LOCAL ZOO, COULDNT FIND THEM IN SEATTLE ZOO, COULDNT FIND THEM IN PALM SPRINGS ZOO. EITHER THEY WERE ON LOAN, OR CHANGING THE ENCLOSURE, OR JUST NOT THERE FOR WHATEVER REASON... IVE BEEN TO 3 ZOOS AND COULDNT FIND THE DAM MEERKATS. SO LOOKING AT THE MAP GUESS WHAT I SEE... MEERKATS!!! IT GOT MY HOPES UP A BIT BUT I WAS AFRAID THAT I WOULD JUST BE CRUSHED SINCE IVE ALREADY BEEN CRUSHED SO MANY TIMES BEFORE. SO WE WENT AROUND AND CHECKED ALL THIS STUFF AND WHEN WE GET NEAR IT WE WENT ONE WAY FIRST. THEN WE WENT THE OTHER WAY AND MY DAD CHECKED OUT THIS OTHER SIDE OF THE EXHIBIT... COMES BACK AND SAYS OH THERES NOTHING INTERESTING THERE... SO IM LIKE OK IL JUST TAKE A QUICK LOOK... GUESS WHAT WAS IN THAT "NOT INTERESTING" AREA... MY MEERKATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG!!! I FINALLY FOUND THEM! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THEM FOR SO LONG! THEY WERE SO CUTE AND ACTUALLY SMALLER THAN I THOUGHT LOL. THERE WERE SO MANY OF THEM TOO LOL. IF I LISTENED TO MY DAD I WOULD HAVE MISSED THEM! ALSO I WOUND HAVE BEEN QUESTIONING IT THE WHOLE TIME SINCE I WENT ALMOST EVERYWHERE AND COULDNT FIND THEM. THERE WE GO, CHECKED THAT OFF THE LIST FINALLY. THEN THE REST OF THE TIME WAS JUST WITH FAMILY AND MORE FAMILY AND THEN HOME WE WENT THE NEXT DAY. OF COURSE OUR FLIGHT WAS DELAYED COMING BACK... THEN WE FIND OUT THERES NO FLIGHT CREW... AND THAT THEY WERE COMING IN FROM ANOTHER FLIGHT. THEN WE FIND OUT THAT THE FLIGHT IS FULL AND OVER BOOKED... THEN THERE WAS A COMPUTER PROBLEM... I GUESS IM JUST GOING TO STAY IN CALGARY... ANYWAYS IT WAS ALL FIXED UP AND THEN WE CAME HOME. I MET QUITE A LOT OF PEOPLE I DONT KNOW ON THIS TRIP. MOSTLY AUNTS AND UNCLES FROM WHO KNOWS WHERE HAHA. IT WAS NICE SEEING FAMILY I HAVENT SEEN IN A WHILE. CONGRATS TO MY COUSIN AND HIS NEW WIFE :)

ANOTHER FAST AND FURIOUS MOVIE

SPOILERS!!! NEED I SAY MORE... WELL... ITS THE 8TH MOVIE IN THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS FRANCHISE... THIS TIME ITS CALLED THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS. MOST OF THE ORIGINAL CAST CAME BACK LIKE VIN DIESEL, MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ, TYRESE GIBSON, LUDACRIS, ALONG WITH NEWER MEMBERS DWAYNE JOHNSON, JASON STATHAM, NATHALIE EMMANUEL, KURT RUSSELL, SCOTT EASTWOOD AND ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ACTRESSES OF ALL TIME... CHARLIZE THERON!!! SO THIS TIME AROUND WHAT HAPPENS... VIN DIESEL (DOM) TURNS HIS BACK ON HIS FAMILY AND HELPS THE BAD GUYS. IT MAKES NO SENSE BUT IT SHOWS LATER ON THAT HIS EX ELSA PATAKY AND HIS SON WAS KIDNAPPED. OF COURSE IT HAD TO BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO MAKE HIM TURN... I SORTA GUESS IT WAS LIKE THAT, SINCE DOMS SO INTO THE FAMILY THING. ANYWAYS THEY STEAL EMP, A TRACKING PROGRAM, SOME NUKE LAUNCH CODES, A SUB, AND THEY TRY TO RULE THE WORLD!!! WITH CHARLIZE IN AT THE HELM OF COURSE :) OH HER RIGHT HAND IS THAT GUY THAT PLAYS ONE OF THE WILDLINGS IN GAME OF THRONES, THE RED GINGER BEARDED GUY. SO U.S. GETS THE REST OF DOMS TEAM TO CHASE AFTER HIM AND GET THEIR STUFF BACK, GET DOM BACK, AND STOP WW3 BASICALLY. SO LOTS OF HIGH SPEED CHASES AND SOME GUN AND SOME EXPLOSIONS. SO MANY THINGS IN THE MOVIE IS JUST BEYOND CAPABILITY... CONTROLLING ALL THOSE CARS AND WHEN THEY ALL MADE THAT TURN THAT FAILED THAT WAS SOOOOOOOOOOO CG LIKE REALLY BAD I WOULD SAY HAHA. ALSO, DOING THAT MUCH DAMAGE TO A CAR... THE CAR WOULD NOT BE RUNNING!!! LOTS OF STUNTS WERE JUST OVER THE TOP, BUT I GUESS THAT WHAT YOURE EXPECTING AND WANTING TO SEE. ALL OF THE SUB SCENES AND THE SNOW CHASE IS JUST NOT POSSIBLE. THE LAMBO WOULD BE THE FIRST TO GO NO WHERE FAST LOL. BASICALLY A LOT OF THE MOVIE IS IMPOSSIBLE. THERES FUNNY PARTS, SOME SERIOUS, AND SOME CHEESY STUFF TOO. THEY ONLY MADE 1 REFERENCE TO PAUL WALKER AND IT WAS SO LIGHT THAT YOU WOULDNT REALLY CATCH IT UNLESS YOU PAID ATTENTION. THEY DIDNT WANT TO DRAW THAT MUCH ATTENTION TO IT I GUESS. THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A CHANCE THAT THEY DIDNT MAKE THIS MOVIE BUT THEN AGAIN THE AMOUNT OF MONEY ONE OF THESE MOVIE BRINGS IN IS JUST TOO HARD TO PASS UP. SAME WITH ANOTHER SEQUEL TO THIS... ITS BASICALLY SET THAT THERE WILL BE ANOTHER AND ONCE AGAIN IF YOU THROW ENOUGH MONEY AT IT AND SINCE YOURE GOING TO THE BANK WITH THIS, WHY NOT? KEEP MILKING IT FOR ALL ITS WORTH. ESPECIALLY THEY WAY THE MOVIE ENDED ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. I WONT SPOIL THAT PART LOL. FOR A SECOND I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO NAME THE BABY PAUL, BUT THEY ACTUALLY NAMED HIM BRIAN, AFTER PAULS CHARACTER IN THE SERIES. IN A WAY ITS THE SAME THING. THE MOVIE WAS OK, FOR SOME REASON I DIDNT LIKE IT AS MUCH AS I THOUGHT I WOULD. SOMETHING ABOUT IT MAKES ME THINK THEY TRIED TO PUT TOO MUCH INTO IT, THEY THREW IN A BUNCH OF PEOPLE AND A BUNCH OF STORYLINES AND BAM THERE YOU GO, A MOVIE. I DONT KNOW... ITS JUST SOMETHING ABOUT IT. SOME CHARACTERS DIDNT HAVE AS MUCH FACE TIME AS I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED AND SOME WAS JUST MEH. OH AND I KNEW THAT JASON STATHAM DIDNT DIE THERE. NO WAY THEY WOULD JUST KILL OFF A MAIN CHARACTER LIKE THAT. YA I THINK THEY JUST TRIED TO DO TOO MUCH. SO I JUST READ SOME OF THE REVIEWS FOR THE MOVIE AND ITS NOT LOOKING THAT GOOD FOR THEM. MOST OF IT IS THE SAME AS WHAT I SAID. JUST THROW MONEY, THROW BIG NAMES, BIG EXPLOSIONS AND YOU GOT YOURSELF A MOVIE. WELL AT THE END OF THE DAY IL STILL GIVE IT A 6.3-6.76/10. YA ITS ANOTHER RANGE JUST BECAUSE I DONT KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE MOVIE. ITS FUN, YOU DONT HAVE TO THINK TOO HARD, THERES ACTION, AND CHARLIZE IS IN IT. SO THERE YOU GO. WHAT DID YOU GUYS AND GALS THINK OF IT?

SO IT WAS EASTER LONG WEEKEND AND WE HAD 4 DAYS OFF. IT WAS NICE TO JUST RELAX A BIT. I THINK THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY 4 DAY LONG WEEKEND WE HAVE... BESIDES CHRISTMAS... WELL EITHER WAY IT WAS NICE. HAD A FAMILY DINNER. MY UNCLE FROM HK ALSO CAME OVER, SO HAD DIM SUM AND DINNER WITH HIM. SO MOSTLY FAMILY WEEKEND. OH YA WENT TO A WHITECAPS GAME VS THE SEATTLE SOUNDERS SO THAT WAS GOOD. BESIDES THAT JUST WORK AND TRYING TO WORK ON OTHER THINGS AS WELL. GOT A LONG DAY TOMORROW SINCE I HAVE REHAB TOMORROW SO IM GONNA BE TIRED... TIME TO SLEEP :) EVEN THOUGH ITS ACTUALLY LATE ALREADY... HAHA...

BETWEEN WORK, MEETINGS, PHYSIO, OTHER TREATMENTS, CLIENT STUFF, FAMILY, AND FRIENDS, I DIDNT HAVE MUCH TIME TO MY OWN STUFF. WAS AT A CLIENT THING LAST NIGHT AND THAT RAN REALLY REALLY LATE. ITS GOING TO STAY BUSY FOR A WHILE... I DID HAVE LIKE HALF A DAY TO DO WHAT I WANTED TO DO AND I FINALLY GOT AROUND TO DOING SOMETHING I PUT OFF. SO THATS MOVING ALONG NOW, ITS ALL JUST A MATTER OF TIME NOW!!! IM TIRED, SO HERES ANOTHER POST THAT REALLY WAS POSTED BECAUSE A POST NEEDED TO BE POSTED BUT IS POSTED BECAUSE I COULDNT POST WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO POST BECAUSE OF LIFE SMACKING YOU IN THE FACE.

WELL LETS LOOK BACK AT LAST YEAR. 2016 WAS JUST A BAD YEAR FOR ME... AND IM GLAD ITS OVER AND DONE WITH. THE CAR ACCIDENT ACTUALLY HAPPENED THE LAST WEEK OF DECEMBER, BUT BASICALLY THE WHOLE THING WAS IN THE NEW YEAR. SO TO KEEP WITH TRADITION... SEE BELOW FOR THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PAST YEAR.

• GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT... AND ANOTHER... AND TECHNICALLY ANOTHER... NOT MY FUALTS!!! BEEN IN RECOVERY EVER SINCE... TOTALLY NOT FUN.... ITS BEEN SUCH A HEADACHE... JUST DEALING WITH EVERYTHING WHILE EVERYTHING HURTS
• MY BEST FRIEND HAD THEIR KID!!! ITS A BABY GIRL AND IM A GODFATHER NOW :) 
• VISITED GRANDMA AGAIN IN HK
• KEPT THIS BLOG GOING FOR ANOTHER YEAR, SOME POSTS MIGHT HAVE BEEN SUB PAR... BUT I HOPE ON CHANGING THAT. LOTS OF REVIEWS LAST YEAR TOO ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS TIRED LOL
• LEARNED EVEN MORE ABOUT MYSELF
• KEPT THAT JOURNAL THING GOING
• LAST BUT NOT LEAST... I HAVE A NEW GIRLFRIEND :) YUP, IT HAS HAPPENED HAHA. SHES PROBABLY READING THIS RIGHT NOW. SOOOO... HELLO THERE :P 

MOST OF THE TIME IM JUST BUSY WITH WORK, FAMILY, AND FRIENDS. HOWEVER MY 1 YEARS DEADLINE HAS PAST. I WAS NOT ABLE TO COMPLETE WHAT I WANTED. I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE A HARD TASK, I DID TRY BUT IT WAS JUST TOO RUSHED I THINK. WELL... I GUESS THAT IS BACK ON THE LIST OF WHAT I WANTED TO ACCOMPLISH THIS YEAR.

LETS CRUSH IT THIS YEAR :)

WHOS YOUR TEAM?

SO JUST A QUICK POST SINCE ITS LATE AND IM TIRED... AS USUAL LOL. ANYWAYS SO IVE GONE TO TWO HOCKEY GAMES THE PAST TWO WEEKS AND BOTH HAS BEEN A WIN. THIS IS QUITE RARE FOR MY TEAM, ESPECIALLY LATELY. WE HAVENT REALLY DONE GOOD THE PAST FEW YEARS, SINCE OUR CUP RUN WHERE WE MADE FINALS... AND BLEW IT. YES YES YOU CAN GUESS WHICH TEAM THAT IS LOL. ANYWAYS THE THING THAT I ALWAYS FOUND INTERESTING IS THAT THERE CAN BE HUNDREDS, THOUSANDS, TENS OF THOUSANDS, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS, AND EVEN MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO WATCH A CERTAIN TEAM PLAY A CERTAIN SPORT. IT DOESNT MATTER IF ITS HOCKEY, SOCCER, FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, PING PONG, SWIMMING, OR WHATEVER THE DOZENS AND DOZENS OF SPORTS IT COULD BE, THERE WILL ALWAYS BE FANS. THERE IS THE NEW FAN, CASUAL FAN, BIG FAN, CRAZY FAN, AND DIE HARD FANS. THE THING WITH THIS IS THAT ALL THOSE FANS ARE JUST FANS... THEY DONT HAVE A REAL STAKE IN THE WHOLE THING. THE PLAYERS ARE THE ONES ON THE FIELD OR RINK OR COURT OR WHATEVER, PLAYING TO WIN AND PLAYING TO BE A CHAMPION. IF YOU PLAY SPORTS YOU WILL GET WHAT I MEAN. THOSE WHO PLAY THE SPORT WANT TO WIN, AND THOSE THAT WIN, YOU FEEL THE ACCOMPLISHMENT AND HAVE THE TITLE. IF YOU ARE A FAN, WHAT DO YOU GET? THE $15 HOT DOG AND $10 POPCORN AND $5 DRINK... THATS WHAT YOU GET. YOU MIGHT FEEL HAPPY FOR YOUR TEAM BUT YOU REALLY DONT GET ANYTHING OUT OF IT. EVERYTHING YOU PAY AND BUY IS ALL GOING TO THE PLAYERS. THEY ARE THE ONES MAKING MILLIONS OFF YOU WATCHING AND BUYING THEIR JERSEYS AND GEAR. GRANTED SOMETIMES THE FANS DO GET TO DICTATE WHAT GOES ON WITH YOUR TEAM, BUT MOST OF THE TIME YOU DONT. I DO SEE THE APPEAL OF GOING TO GAMES AND ENJOYING YOURSELF, EATING, CHATTING, WATCHING THE GAME. MAYBE YOU WANT TO GO TO SEE A GOOD PLAYER. EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO, BENEFITS THE TEAM, AND NOT  YOU. WHEN YOUR TEAM WINS, DO YOU REALLY WIN? DO YOU GET ANYTHING? YOU JUST GET TO SAY THAT YOU WERE THERE, YOU WERE A PART OF IT, BUT ARE YOU REALLY? DOES THE STAR PLAYER KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND COMES OVER TO SAY HI OR HANG OUT? NO. ALL THE PLAYERS KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GAME, AND I MEAN THE POLITICAL GAME. YOU SAKE SOME HANDS, TAKE A FEW PICTURES, AND SIGN SOME AUTOGRAPHS TO KEEP YOUR SALARY COMING IN. HEY DONT GET MY WRONG... IF I COULD BE A PRO ATHLETE AND MAKE MILLIONS BY PLAYING A SPORT I LOVE, I WOULD TOTALLY DO IT IN A HEARTBEAT. ITS JUST FUNNY TO ME. ALSO ALL THOSE DIE HARD FANS THAT KNOWS EVERY SINGLE STAT FOR EVERY SINGLE PLAYER FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS AND EVEN THEIR PERSONAL LIFE, WHATS IN THAT FOR YOU? DO YOU REALLY CARE THAT SOMEONE HAS A CERTAIN POINT % OR RBI OR YARDS OR ANYTHING? THIS JUST MAKES YOU THINK... WHAT AND WHO ARE YOU REALLY THERE FOR? WHY DO YOU LIKE THE TEAM THAT YOU DO? ITS INTERESTING WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE GOING CRAZY ABOUT THEIR TEAM. PSYCHOLOGICALLY SPEAKING FANS ARE JUST LOOKING FOR A SENSE OF BELONGINGNESS. THERE IS JUST A DIFFERENT CONNECTION WITH SOMEONE WHO IS ALSO A FAN OF THE SAME TEAM THAT YOU ARE. EVERYONE AND EVERY TEAM IS THE SAME. WHICH ALSO MEANS THAT EVERY FAN AND EVERY TEAM WILL WANT THEIR TEAM TO WIN AND THAT THEY ARE BETTER THAN THEM, WHEN IN FACT, EVERYONE IS EXACTLY THE SAME. COMPETITION HAS ALWAYS BEEN AROUND, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, AND WILL ALWAYS BE AROUND. THERE IS NO WAY AROUND IT. WHO IS BETTER, WHOS GOT MORE, WHOS WHO. ITS JUST KEEPS GOING ON AND ON AND ON. ITS NEVER GOING TO STOP SO JUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU COME OUT THE WINNER.

ITS A WEIRD WEEK SINCE CHRISTMAS WAS A WEEKEND. I ENDED UP GETTING MONDAY AND TUESDAY OFF, THAT WAS NICE. DIDNT REALLY DO MUCH, JUST HUNG OUT WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY. SECRET SANTA WITH MY FRIENDS WAS COOL, I GOT A SSJ2 GOKU FIGURE FROM MY SECRET SANTA. I ALSO GOT A DRONE AND A PAIR OF REALLY NICE SHOES FROM THE GF :) I GOT HER A BUNCH OF STUFF SHE WANTED. THERE WAS JACKET, SOME SOCKS, A MAKE UP THING, A TSUM TSUM, AND SOME LED LIGHTS THAT SHE WANTED A WHILE BACK. ALSO GOT SOME CLOTHES AND MENS STUFF LIKE WASH AND COLOGNE. ALL IN ALL IT WAS A NICE CHRISTMAS.

WELL THAT ALL FOR THIS YEAR. I KNOW I USUALLY WRITE A YEAR END POST THAT SUMMERIZES HOW THE YEAR WENT BUT IM LAZY RIGHT NOW AND I CANT WAIT TIL 2016 IS OVER. IL WRITE THAT POST IN THE NEW YEAR WHEN IM LOOKING BACK. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, I WISH YOU ALL A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY AND SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR :)

WITH THAT BEING SAID... THIS BLOG IS BEHIND... THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY THING IM BEHIND IN. IVE BEEN PUSHING THIS FURTHER AND FURTHER AND STILL TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH THIS. THERES JUST TOO MUCH IN LIFE TO FIGURE OUT BEFORE I CAN FIGURE OUT ON THIS. SO MANY THINGS I WANT TO WRITE ABOUT AND SO LITTLE TIME...

THEN AGAIN... THERES ALWAYS TOMORROW... AND IT WILL HAVE TO BE TOMORROW WHEN I WILL THINK ABOUT ALL THIS AGAIN... SOOOO IM GOING TO SLEEP, JUST SLEEP THE PROBLEMS AND EVERYTHING AWAY... FOR NOW.

THEN AGAIN REALLY THINKING ABOUT IT IM A FEW YEARS FROM BEING READY TO HAVE A KID, BUT I WANT A KID. ITS JUST EVERYONE AROUND IS HAVING THEM AND I WANT OUR KIDS TO BE THE SAME AGE OR ROUGHLY THE SAME AGE. MY GROUPS PLANS IS THAT ALL OUR KIDS WILL BE FRIENDS AND BEST FRIENDS WITH EACH OTHER WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT!!! THEY HAVE NO CHOICE IN THE MATTER LOL. ITS SO MUCH FUN TO PLAY WITH BABIES FOR THAT HOUR OR WHATEVER BUT HAVING TO DEAL WITH THEM ALL THE TIME WOULD BE A LOT. WELL OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE TO 24/7 BECAUSE THEY A BABY BUT JEZZ!!! BABY JUST GO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF ALREADY!!! LOL. THEN YOU HAVE TO RAISE THEM FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG BEFORE THEY FINALLY LEAVE HOME AND MAKE ME RICH!!! YES, MY KIDS WILL MAKE ME RICH!!! THEN AGAIN IL BE RICH WHEN SOON SOOOOOO TECHNICALLY ITS THE OTHER WAY AROUND HAHA. THINKING ABOUT IT IS JUST CRAZY THAT WHEN MY KID IS 10 OR 20 IL BE... MUCH MUCH OLDER AND ALL MY FRIENDS WILL BE THAT AGE TOO... SO MUCH WILL HAPPEN BETWEEN NOW AND THEN IT JUST BOGGLES THE MIND. BUT... WHO KNOWS WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN OR WHEN ITS GOING TO HAPPEN... EVERYTHING IS ALL UP IN THE AIR UNTIL THAT STUFF HAPPENS ANYWAY. SOOOOOO IN THE MEANTIME IL JUST ENJOY BEING THE AWESOME GODFATHER THAT I AM AND PLAY WITH OTHER PEOPLES BABIES :)

WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT THE REST OF EVERYTHING? WHAT CAN I SAY... JUST SAME OLD DAY IN AND DAY OUT... FOR NOW. LIKE ALWAYS IM BUSY, IM HERE AND THERE, DOING THIS AND THAT. ITS EITHER GOING TO STAY THE SAME OR GET EVEN WORSE... WHO KNOWS. STILL WORKING ON WHAT I WANT, BUT EVERYTHING TAKES TIME... AS USUAL. PATIENCE REALLY IS A VIRTUE... SOMETIMES YOU JUST WANT A GLIMPSE OF THE FUTURE, JUST TO SEE IF THE ROAD YOU ARE ON, IS THE ROAD THAT YOU ARE MEANT TO BE ON, OR THE ROAD YOU THOUGHT YOU WOULD BE ON. JUST EVEN SEEING A SECOND OF IT WOULD HELP SHAPE AND CHANGE YOUR DECISIONS YOU MAKE THIS MINUTE, TODAY, TOMORROW AND FOREVER. THEN AGAIN I GUESS THATS THE MYSTERY WHICH IS LIFE AND NEVER KNOWING. THE CONSTANT SURPRISE LIFE BRINGS YOU, BOTH THE UPS AND DOWNS. WHO KNOWS WHATS TO COME... GUESS IL FIND OUT WHEN I WAKE UP... :P

KEEPING IN TOUCH

I SORTA TOUCHED ON THIS TOPIC HERE AND THERE IN THE PAST BUT NOT REALLY WROTE FULLY ABOUT IT AND THIS TOPIC WAS MORE PREVALENT THIS TIME AROUND ON MY VACATION. WHEN I SAY KEEPING IN TOUCH I MEAN EXACTLY THAT, KEEPING IN TOUCH WITH OLD FRIENDS, CLASSMATES, AND COLLEAGUES. IF YOU KNOW ME THEN YOU WILL KNOW THAT I AM THE TYPE OF PERSON THAT LIKES TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH EVERYONE. DOESNT MATTER WHERE YOU END UP OR HOW LONG ITS BEEN, SOMEWHERE SOMEHOW DOWN THE LINE I WILL CATCH UP WITH YOU, ESPECIALLY IF I BUMP INTO YOU ON THE STREET OR SOMETHING AND I SAY LETS CATCH UP SOME DAY, OR GRAB A COFFEE, I ACTUALLY MEAN IT. THIS IS JUST WHO I AM. I LIKE TO SEE WHERE PEOPLE I ONCE KNEW ARE AT THESE DAYS. PERSONALLY ON MY VACATION THIS TIME AROUND I MET UP WITH LOTS OF FAMILY, FAMILY FRIENDS, AND FRIENDS THAT I HAVE IN CHINA AND HONG KONG. I ACTUALLY DIDNT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO MEET UP WITH EVERYONE... THERES JUST TOO MANY PEOPLE AND TOO LITTLE TIME. ANYWAYS, I MET UP WITH FRIENDS THAT I HAVENT SEEN IN A FEW MONTHS OR SOME I HAVENT EVEN SEEN IN OVER A DECADE. I PURPOSELY MESSAGED THE PEOPLE I HAVENT SEEN IN A LONG TIME SO WE CAN GO OUT AND CATCH UP, I MEAN AFTER ALL AT ONE POINT WE WERE FRIENDS FOR A REASON. KEEPING IN TOUCH IS HARD THESE DAYS, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE ARE ALL GROWN UP, WITH CAREERS, FAMILIES, AND RESPONSIBILITIES, AND EVEN HARDER WHEN WE ARE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE PLANT. HOWEVER, I WILL MAKE AN EFFORT EITHER WAY TO SEE EVERYONE. GOING BACK THIS TIME I GOT A CHANCE TO MEET UP WITH A BUNCH OF MY OLD HIGH SCHOOL FRIENDS WHO ALL MOVED BACK TO HONG KONG TO WORK. THERE WAS ONE FRIEND I HAVENT SEEN IN OVER 10 YEARS AND THE REST I HAVENT SEEN IN 4 OR 5 OR MORE YEARS. I ORIGINALLY ONLY TOLD ONE PERSON IN THE GROUP THAT I WAS COMING BACK AND THEN IT JUST SPREAD FROM THERE THAT I WAS COMING BACK. IT SO HAPPENS THAT ANOTHER CLASSMATE WAS BACK AS WELL AND THEY ALL ENDED UP HAVING A SMALL HIGH SCHOOL REUNION. IT WAS REALLY NICE OF THEM TO HAVE INVITED ME ESPECIALLY SINCE I WASNT REALLY IN THEIR GROUP. WE HAD THE SAME CLASSES TOGETHER AND GREW UP TOGETHER SO IT WAS FUN GETTING SO SEE WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN UP TO FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS LOL. I REALLY LIKE KEEPING IN TOUCH WITH EVERYONE, I MEAN AFTERALL WE WERE FRIENDS FOR A REASON. SO IF YOURE READING THIS AND WE HAVENT TALKED TO EACH OTHER FOR A WHILE, MESSAGE ME TO COME OUT AND CATCH UP. I WOULD LOVE TO HANG OUT AND CATCH UP SOMETIME.

THE WHOLE REASON I WROTE THIS POST WAS MORE BECAUSE I SAW HOW MY PARENTS KEEP IN TOUCH WITH THEIR FRIENDS. IM REALLY IMPRESSED THAT AFTER 30... 40... 50... YEARS MY DAD IS STILL FRIENDS WITH HIS HIGH SCHOOL FRIENDS AND OLD COLLEAGUES. EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE IS MY MOM IS STILL IN CONTACT WITH HER OLD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FRIENDS. EVERYONE IS ALL OLD NOW AND RETIRED WITH KIDS OF THEIR OWN AND LOTS OF THEM EVEN HAVE GRANDKIDS. IM NOT TALKING ABOUT JUST A FRIEND OF TWO... I WENT TO MY MOMS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FRIENDS GATHERING AND 20 PEOPLE SHOWED UP!!! ALL OF THEM WERE FROM HER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CLASS!!! THAT IS SOMETHING SPECIAL. AFTER ALL THESE YEARS OF HIGH SCHOOL, COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY, WORKING, TRAVELLING, MARRIAGE, FAMILY, RETIREMENT, GRANDCHILDREN, THEY ARE STILL ABLE TO KEEP IN CONTACT WITH SO MANY FRIENDS. EVEN BETTER YET THEY HAVE EACH OTHER ON FACEBOOK AND GROUP CHATS. ITS AMAZING THAT FRIENDSHIPS LIKE THAT CAN LAST LITERALLY A LIFETIME. THEY ALL GET ALONG AND TALK ABOUT THE OLD DAYS AND THESE DAYS. WHEN THEY GET TOGETHER ITS LIKE THEY NEVER SKIP A BEAT. SAME WITH MY DAD AND HIS FRIENDS FROM ALL DIFFERENT PLACES. SAME WITH ME AND MY FRIENDS I HAVENT SEEN IN A LONG TIME. WE ALL LITERALLY JUST PICK UP FROM WHERE WE LEFT OFF AND CARRY ON LIKE WE WERE NEVER MISSING. THE BEST PART IS THAT IT ISNT FORCED. EVERYTHING FEELS NATURAL. I REALLY WISH I CAN HAVE ENOUGH TIME AND MONEY OF COURSE TO JUST GO ALL OVER TO CATCH UP WITH ALL THE FRIENDS THAT I HAVENT SEEN OR TALKED TO IN A WHILE. THEY SAY THAT IF A FRIENDSHIP LASTS LONGER THAN 7 YEARS THEN THE ODDS ARE THAT YOU WILL REMAIN FRIENDS FOREVER. THIS REALLY APPLIES MORE FOR CLOSE CONTACT FRIENDS BUT I TRULY BELIEVE THAT IF YOU MAKE AN EFFORT TO BE FRIENDS AND KEEP IN CONTACT WITH SOMEONE, THEN THEY WILL RECIPROCATE AND YOU BOTH BE FRIENDS FOR A LONG TIME. TIME AND DISTANCE REALLY DOESNT PLAY A FACTOR IN THIS BECAUSE ITS MORE OF AN EFFORT AND WILLINGNESS TO TRY TO KEEP IN CONTACT. PEOPLE THESE DAYS JUST LOOSE CONTACT WITH PEOPLE TOO EASILY, SOMETIMES YOU MOVE AWAY OR PEOPLE CHANGE NUMBERS AND WHO KNOWS WHERE THEY END UP. TECHNOLOGY THESE DAYS MAKE IT SIMPLER TO CONNECT WITH PEOPLE AND FRIENDS. MY PARENTS PROVE WITH THEIR FRIENDSHIPS, THAT IT REALLY IS POSSIBLE TO REMAIN FRIENDS FOR A LIFETIME. WHO KNOWS IF ITS MORE OF A DIFFERENT GENERATIONAL KIND OF THING BUT WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING, IT WORKS FOR THEM. I REALLY DO HOPE THAT I WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH THE PEOPLE I MEET OVER MY LIFETIME LIKE THEY HAVE.

DAY 5 OF 366

WELL I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NICE TO JUST RECAP THE PAST WEEK AND SEE HOW PROGRESS IS GOING... IT IS GOING... SLOW........................ VERY SLOW............................... LOL... BETWEEN BEING CAUGHT UP WITH WORK, SOCCER, AND SOME BDAY CELEBRATIONS I DIDNT REALLY GET A CHANCE TO REALLY BEGIN ANYTHING. I REALLY DONT THINK IL BE ABLE TO START TILL THIS MAD RUSH IS OVER. TOO MUCH TO DO RIGHT NOW AND TOO TIRED WHEN IM BACK HOME. BY THE TIME IM FINALLY HOME I JUST WANT TO EAT AND CHILL OUT THEN GO TO SLEEP. BDAY WAS NICE, JUST HAD DINNER WITH THE CLOSE GROUP OF FRIENDS AND THEN WENT BOWLING... WHERE THEY SCREWED UP AND NOW I HAVE TO CALL THEIR GM TO COMPLAIN AND GET MY MONEY BACK. THE ZONE HAS NEVER BEEN THIS BIG OF A HASSLE, THE PEOPLE THERE THAT NIGHT WAS COMPLETELY USELESS AND DIDNT EVEN UNDERSTAND THEIR OWN SYSTEM. THE FACT THAT I HAD TO EXPLAIN TO THEM WHAT THEY DID WRONG AND HOW ILLOGICAL THEY WERE ACTUALLY MADE ME FEEL DUMBER... NOT TO MENTION IT WAS MY FREAKING BDAY!!! ANYWAYS I GOTTA DEAL WITH THAT SOON. HUNG OUT WITH THE FAMILY ONE DAY AND HAD DIM SUM THE OTHER. OH I DID HAVE A SOCCER GAME LAST WEEK AND IT WAS GREAT. WE WON AND I SHOULD HAVE SCORED LIKE 3 GOALS!!! INSTEAD I WAS THE UNLUCKIEST GUY EVER... LONG STORY SHORT I KICK THE BALL AND IT HITS THE RIGHT POST, WHEN THE GOALIE TURNS TO LOOK AT THE BALL, THE BALL RICOCHETS OFF THE POST AND HITS HER SQUARE IN THE FACE, THEN THE BALL BOUNCES OFF HER FACE AND HITS THE SAME POST AGAIN, AND THEN BOUNCES OFF THE GOALIES HAND AND ROLLS ON THE LINE BUT NOT IN... ARE... YOU... KIDDING... ME..........   THAT SURE WAS UNLUCKY... SIGH... WELL ANYWAYS GONNA GO GET SOME SLEEP, FINISH OFF THE WEEK STRONG AND HOPEFULLY START ON WHAT REALLY MATTERS.

2014 IS FINALLY OVER!!!

WOW!!! JUST WOW!!! ANOTHER YEAR HAS COME AND PAST AND EVERYONE IS ABOUT TO WELCOME IN ANOTHER NEW YEAR. THIS WAS A HUGEEEEEEEEEE YEAR FOR ME!!! LITERALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED AND SO MUCH HAS CHANGED THAT HONESTLY IM SORT OF GLAD THE YEAR IS OVER AND DONE WITH... THE START OF 2014 WAS ROUGH... LIKE REALLY ROUGH... AND IT REALLY DIDNT GET ANY BETTER... BUT... EVENTUALLY... INEVITABLY... LIKE I ALWAYS SAY... WITH TIME... THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER... AND IT DID. THINGS TURNED AROUND AND WITH HARD WORK THE YEAR IS ENDING OFF WAY WAY WAYYYYYYY BETTER THAN HOW IT STARTED. SO AS USUAL HERE ARE SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF THE YEAR... IL TRY TO KEEP IT IN ORDER SO YOU CAN SEE IT GOING FROM BAD TO BEST :)

• STARTED THE YEAR OFF WITH AN END TO A RELATIONSHIP
• STUCK IT OUT THROUGH IN A JOB THAT DRAINED ME BOTH MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY... 
• LOST TOUCH WITH SOME FRIENDS, AND SOME CAME AND WENT
• STARTED NEW JOB AND GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH AN AWESOME GROUP OF PEOPLE
• KEPT UP WITH THE SCHOOLING AND I FINALLY JUST FINISHED THE CERTIFICATE PROGRAM A FEW WEEKS AGO :)
• GREW EVEN CLOSER WITH SOME OF MY FRIENDS, AND MADE NEW ONES TOO
• KEPT UP WITH THE BLOG, AND ACTUALLY HAD MEANINGFUL POSTS ALL OVER THE PLACE
• I DID THIS CHALLENGE WHERE I TRY TO WRITE A JOURNAL FOR EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR... AND IVE DONE IT!!! ALL 365 DAYS ARE FILLED!!! YOU CAN ASK ME WHAT I DID ON ANY DAY OF 2014 AND I CAN TELL YOU!!! LOL YA SOMETIMES I FORGET TO WRITE IT BUT WRITE IT BACK IN THE NEXT DAY SO I WROTE ABOUT EVERY DAY :P HAHA
• LEARNED ALOT ABOUT MYSELF AND WHAT I CAN REALLY DO 
• AND LASTLY... PARTIED MY FACE OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY... I PARTIED SO MUCH IT WASNT EVEN FUNNY... 

AFTER ALL THIS TIME I THINK I AM FINALLY IN A GOOD SPOT... I MEAN... THERE WERE A FEW HICK UPS AND MISTAKES ALONG THE WAY BUT HEY... NO ROAD IS STRAIGHT RIGHT?!?!?!?! I FINALLY KNOW WHAT I WANT AND NOW I KNOW HOW TO GET IT. THERES STILL A FEW THINGS THAT IM WORKING TOWARDS BUT SLOWLY YET SURELY EVERYTHING IS COMING TOGETHER. FAMILY AND FRIENDS WERE THERE THE WHOLE WAY TO SUPPORT ME AND IM THANKFUL FOR THAT. ITS BEEN A BUSY LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS FOR WORK AND LIFE AND ITS ONLY GOING TO GET BUSIER IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS BUT WITH THAT ALSO COMES OTHER SURPRISES THAT IM WORKING TOWARDS. IL FINALLY HAVE MORE FREE TIME SINCE THE PROGRAM IS DONE BUT IL HAVE LESS TIME ONCE AGAIN. I CAN FINALLY DO WHAT I WANT TO, WHEN I WANT TO, AND NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING. WHO REALLY KNOWS WHAT 2015 HAS IN STORE FOR ANY OF US ANYWAY... THE FUTURE HAS YET TO BE WRITTEN, WE ARE THE AUTHORS OF OUR OWN STORY. I HAVE LOTS OF BIG PLANS PLANNED FOR THE NEW YEAR AND I HOPE THEY CAN ALL COME TO PASS. 

SO TONIGHT IM JUST GOING TO GO HANG OUT WITH SOME FRIENDS AND HAVE A NICE NIGHT WITH THEM. I DONT EVEN WANT A BIG PARTY OR ANYTHING... JUST TIRED OF IT... THEN AGAIN PROBABLY CAUSE IVE BEEN PARTYING SO MUCH HAHA. IVE SLOWED DOWN BUT THEN SOMEHOW LAST MIN I DECIDED TO GO CONTACT FESTIVAL... AND IT WAS AWESOME. SOMETIMES THOSE ARE THE BEST PLANS... THE PLANS UNMADE HAHA. NEW YEARS THOUGH I JUST LIKE IT CHILL, SO GONNA EAT SOME FOOD, DRINK SOME DRINKS, PLAY SOME GAMES, AND HANG OUT WITH THE FAM. 

AS ONE DOOR CLOSES, A NEW ONE OPENS. AND WITH THAT, I WISH ALL MY READERS AND EVERYONE OUT THERE A HAPPIEST OF NEW YEARS AND SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR :)

VALUES & PRIORITIES

SO WHAT DO YOU VALUE??? EVERYONE VALUES SOMETHING, AND IM NOT TALKING ABOUT JUST MONEY OR OBJECTS. IM TALKING ABOUT PERSONAL VALUES AND HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE. IM TALKING ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIPS YOU FORM. IM TALKING ABOUT FAMILY. IM TALKING ABOUT ALL THE THINGS THAT MONEY CANT BUY. ITS THE VALUES THAT EACH ONE OF US HAS THAT DETERMINE HOW WE LIVE OUR LIVES AND WHAT WE HOLD DEAR. THE PROBLEM THESE DAYS IS WHAT DO WE DO WHEN OUR VALUES CONFLICT AGAINST WHAT OR WHERE WE WANT TO GO? HOW DO WE GET OVER IT? CAN MONEY REALLY BUY EVERYTHING? EVERYONE HAS A PRICE AND ITS TRUE... EVEN THOUGH MONEY CANT BUY EVERYTHING IT REALLY CAN... VALUES ARE WHAT MAKES US WHO WE ARE. CAN YOU REALLY GIVE UP OR BREAK YOUR VALUES TO GET WHAT YOU WANT? ARE WE REALLY STILL US IF WE GIVE THAT ALL UP? YA... JUST BEEN THINKING LATELY AS YOU CAN TELL. SORTA JUST RAMBLING... I HAD THIS THOUGHT OUT ACTUALLY BUT NOW IT JUST BLURRED INTO ONE BIG CLUSTER OF WORDS... I THINK IT THE REASON THIS TOPIC CAME UP IS ONE OF MY CLOSE BUDDY JUST HAD A KID AND WHAT HE VALUES NOW REALLY SHOWS. HE VALUES EVERY MOMENT HE HAS WITH HIS NEW KID. I PERSONALLY VALUE MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY, IT IS THEM WHO HAVE MADE ME WHO I AM. I ALSO VALUE THE RELATIONSHIPS AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT I HAVE BEEN GIVEN, BOTH THE GOOD AND THE BAD. HAVING SOMETHING TO HOLD ON TO GIVES US PURPOSE, GIVES US DIRECTION, GIVES US MOTIVATION TO CONTINUE ON AND KEEP ON MOVING FORWARD.

WHAT ABOUT PRIORITIES??? VALUES AND PRIORITIES TIE INTO EACH OTHER. THEY DEFINE EACH OTHER. WHAT YOU VALUE DETERMINES HOW MUCH OF A PRIORITY THEY ARE TO YOU. EVERYONES PRIORITIES ARE DIFFERENT, AND THEY WILL BE DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHERE IN LIFE YOU ARE. GROWING UP YOUR PRIORITIES REALLY DO CHANGE. SOMEHOW WITHOUT KNOWING IT... SLOWLY YET SURELY YOUR PRIORITIES WILL CHANGE. PERHAPS SOMEONE OR SOMETHING MADE YOU REALIZE THAT THINGS NEED TO CHANGE. ITS THEN YOU REALIZE THAT YOU CANT KEEP GOING THE WAY YOU ARE GOING AND MAKE A CHANGE HOPEFULLY FOR THE BETTER. SAME THING AS BEFORE... I WENT AND SAW MY BUDDIES KID AND BASICALLY HIS WHOLE WORLD WAS FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN... EVERYTHING THAT WAS A PRIORITY FOR HIM CHANGED AND NOW THE KID IS HIS FIRST PRIORITY. WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER IT WAS SCHOOL, WHEN YOU GET OLDER ITS WORK AND MONEY AND FRIENDS. WHEN YOU GET EVEN OLDER ITS YOUR OWN FAMILY. ITS WEIRD JUST WATCHING EVERYONE YOU HAVE KNOWN FOR SO LONG GROW UP AND MOVE ON TO DIFFERENT PRIORITIES. THEN AGAIN WITHOUT PRIORITIES HOW DO YOU KNOW WHATS REALLY IMPORTANT. I GUESS... UNTIL YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOUR PRIORITIES ARE YOU REALLY DONT KNOW YOURSELF. ONCE AGAIN... KNOWING YOUR PRIORITIES TAKES TIME... AS USUAL EVERYTHING COMES BACK DOWN TO TIMING... SIGH...

WORKS BEEN BUSY BUT WORKS WORK AND ITS FUN :) JUST BEEN IN MEETINGS AND WORKING ON PAPERWORK BUT I MUST SAY CHRISTMAS SURE DOES HAVE ITS PERKS LOL. PEOPLE ARE BRINGING IN ALL SORTS OF GOODIES. BESIDES THE CARDS WE GOT CANDY AND CANDY AND CANDY AND CUPCAKES AND COOKIES AND CHOCOLATES AND SUCH AND SUCH HAHA. FRIDAY IS THE COMPANIES CHRISTMAS DINNER PARTY AND LIKE I SAID IM IN CHARGE OF THE SOCIAL ACTIVITIES... DID YOU KNOW ITS REALLY HARD TO COME UP WITH GAMES THAT ARE AGE APPROPRIATE AND WORK APPROPRIATE??? AND THAT IT HAS TO BE FUN!??!?!?!?! ITS ACTUALLY A LOT HARDER THAN YOU THINK... BUT I DID IT!!! I CAME UP WITH 3 GAMES :) BUT THEN I FORGOT THE 2ND ONE... SO I CREATED A 3RD ONE LOL AND THEN I REMEMBERED SO THEN I HAD 4 GAMES BUT NOW I WAS TOLD THERES A 5TH PRIZE BUT THAT 5 GAME IM JUST GONNA CRAP OUT AND BE LIKE HERE LETS JUST PICK AN WINNER HAHA.
