A LOT ABOUT NOTHING... BUT SOMETHING ABOUT EVERYTHING

OK... SO I HAD A TOPIC AND IT WAS ABOUT SOMETHING TO DO WITH SOMETHING BUT NOW I TOTALLY FORGOT WHAT IT WAS GOING TO BE ABOUT... THIS QUICKLY TURNED INTO A POST ABOUT NOTHING... THERES A FEW THINGS I COULD TALK ABOUT BUT NOW I FEEL LIKE IVE ALREADY INVESTED IN WRITING ABOUT NOTHING SO I HAVE TO KEEP THAT GOING LOL. WELL... I GUESS I CAN WRITE A BIT ABOUT A FEW RANDOM THINGS... YA... THAT WORKS. IL WRITE SOME RANDOM RANDOMNESS BUT NOT REALLY RANDOM SINCE I NOW HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT... SO TECHNICALLY ITS NOT A LOT ABOUT NOTHING ANY MORE... AND MORE OF SOMETHING TO DO WITH A LOT OF SOMETHING HAHA

MOST PEOPLE DO THEIR JOBS WELL... I SUPPOSE... AND I SAY MOST BECAUSE I DO KNOW PEOPLE WHO SUCK AT THEIR JOBS AND REALLY SHOULD NOT BE DOING WHAT THEY ARE DOING. GRANTED, THERE ARE THOSE WHO ARE GOOD OR OVER QUALIFIED FOR THEIR JOBS BUT THATS ANOTHER THING. I JUST HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE THINK THEY CAN DO YOUR JOB BETTER THAN YOU CAN. YES THIS HAPPENS TO EVERYONE BUT IN MY KIND OF JOB WE ARE SPECIALISTS IN OUR FIELD AND THIS MOFO KEEPS TRYING TO MESS WITH EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING TELLING WRONG INFORMATION AND TRYING TO MAKE ME LOOK BAD AND TOTALLY STUPID. WHEN IN FACT THE GUYS INFORMATION IS WRONG OR OUTDATED OR JUST DOESNT MAKE SENSE. DUDE!!! THIS IS WHAT I DO!!! YOU APPARENTLY HAVE SO MUCH TIME TO LOOK EVERYTHING UP, COPY AND PASTE, AND EXPLAIN WHAT YOU THINK IS THE CORRECT WAY WHEN IT IS NOT. IF WE HAD IT YOUR WAY THEN NOTHING IS EVER GOING TO GET DONE. NO ONE LIKES THIS IDIOT AND THEY ARE JUST AGGRESSIVE TO EVERYONE AND TRIES TO BULLY THEM. IF IT WASNT BECAUSE IM BEING HELD AT A HIGHER STANDARD OR THAT TECHNICALLY THEY ARE MY CLIENTS I WOULD JUST RIP THEM APART AND MOST LIKELY END UP IN A FIGHT. INSTEAD I AM CIVIL AND HAVE TO KEEP MY COOL AND BE PROFESSIONAL. DO YOU SEE ME TELLING YOU HOW TO DO YOUR JOB? NO! SO STFU!!! YOU THINK YOU CAN BE LOUDER THAN ME? NO!!! CAUSE I WILL DESTROY YOU, YOU STUPID IDIOT. WHO DO YOU EVEN THINK YOU ARE TALKING TO ME LIKE THAT. ANYWHERE ELSE THAN THIS AT WORK, YOU WOULD HAVE HAD THE CRAP BEATEN OUT OF YOU A HUNDRED TIMES OVER. ONCE AGAIN... I TAKE THE HIGH ROAD, AND CARRY ON.

MY CITY REALLY IS SMALL... IF YOU DIDNT KNOW, I LIVE IN VANCOUVER. IVE MENTIONED IT A COUPLE OF TIMES HERE AND THERE BUT ANYWAYS... VANCOUVER IS SMALL... ITS A BIG CITY AND ALL BUT EVERYONE IN IT IS SMALL. BY THAT I MEAN SOMEHOW YOU WILL MEET SOMEONE WHO KNOWS SOMEONE OR KNOWS YOU. EVERYONE KNOWS EVERYONE. YOU REALLY CANT GET AWAY. DONT THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY FROM PEOPLE FROM VANCOUVER BY GOING TO SEATTLE... YOU WILL FIND TONS OF VANCOUVER PEOPLE THERE. THERES BEEN A FEW TIMES THAT IVE BUMPED INTO VANCOUVER PEOPLE IN CHINA... IN THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CITIES IN RURAL PLACES IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. SAME WITH HONG KONG, I BUMP INTO PEOPLE THERE THAT I NEVER EVEN SEE AT HOME... THIS IS HONESTLY WHY YOU CANT DO ANYTHING STUPID OR PUTS YOU OUT THERE. WORD TRAVELS SO FAST IN THIS CITY AND SOONER OR LATER YOU WILL MEET SOMEONE THAT KNOWS YOU OR SOMEONE KNOWS SOMEONE. THATS WHY I NEVER EVER WANT TO BURN A BRIDGE OR DO SOMETHING THAT WILL MAKE NOTICE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHO OR WHEN OR WHERE YOU MIGHT MEET SOMEONE OR NEED SOMETHING FROM SOMEONE OR MEET SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOU OR KNOWS SOMEONE. ITS ALL ABOUT RELATIONSHIP AND WHO YOU KNOW IN THIS LIFE AND YOU NEVER WANT TO PISS OFF THE WRONG PERSON, BECAUSE YOU REALLY NEVER KNOW WHO THEY KNOW AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU WILL NEED THEIR HELP. WITH THAT BEING SAID... IM SORT OF KNOWN AROUND BUT ONLY AS THE CAPSLOCK GUY, WHICH IF FINE BECAUSE ITS REALLY NOTHING, PEOPLE RECOGNIZE ME OR FROM FB POSTS OR FROM IG. ITS JUST AMAZING HOW EVERYONE IS CONNECTED THESE DAYS SO JUST MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

PEOPLE COME IN AND OUT OF EVERYONES LIFE. IVE SAID THIS BEFORE, THAT I LIKE CATCHING UP WITH OLD FRIENDS WHO I HAVENT SEEN IN A WHILE. I ALWAYS LIKE TO KEEP THAT CONNECTION EVEN IF WE ARENT CLOSE, I WOULD STILL LIKE TO BE FRIENDS BECAUSE WE MET FOR A REASON. SOMETIMES ITS JUST TOO HARD TO DO THAT THOUGH. EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN PRIORITIES AND WORK AND LIFE JUST GETS IN THE WAY A LOT OF THE TIME. I KNOW SOMEONE WILL SAY OH IF YOU REALLY WANT TO THEN YOU WILL MAKE THE TIME. WELL OF COURSE YOU WILL BUT WILL YOU REALLY UP A FRIEND YOU HAVENT SEEN OR TALKED TO IN 8 YEARS TO GO HANG OUT? MAYBE... MAYBE NOT. THATS WHAT IM SAYING. I DO TRY AND RECENTLY BEEN TALKING TO SOME OLD FRIENDS AGAIN AND ITS NICE. ALSO IT JUST SO HAPPEN CONSEQUENTIALLY AN OLD HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND WHO I HAVENT SEEN IN PROBABLY 10+ YEARS ENDED UP WORKING WITH ONE OF THE COMPANIES I DEAL WITH. WE BOTH REMEMBER EACH OTHER OF COURSE, I MEAN WHO CAN FORGET ME RIGHT :) TALKED A BIT AND NOW WE GOING TO GO OUT TO CATCH UP. THINK ABOUT ALL THE PEOPLE THAT YOU USE TO TALK TO, AND NOT THINK ABOUT WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU TALKED TO THEM, WHY OR HOW DID YOU STOP TALKING TO EACH OTHER. IVE ALWAYS WONDERED WHAT IF WE WERE ABLE TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH EVERYONE WE EVER MET OR OLD FRIENDS. FIRSTLY THAT WOULDNT BE POSSIBLE SINCE IT WOULD TAKE TOO MUCH TIME, BUT MAINLY BECAUSE THAT TIME HAS PASSED. I MEAN, YA YOU CAN CATCH UP WITH SOME AND IT WOULD ALL BE FINE, BUT MANY YOU STOPPED TALKING TO OR JUST LOST CONNECTION WITH FOR A REASON. DONT GET ME WRONG, IF I BUMP INTO SOMEONE I USE TO KNOW IL STILL TALK TO THEM AND SEE HOW THEY ARE DOING, BUT IT WONT EVER BE THE SAME WAY IT WAS WHEN WE USE TO BE FRIENDS OR ACTUALLY TALKED.

SO IT WAS EASTER LONG WEEKEND AND WE GOT 4 DAYS OFF SO THAT WAS NICE. PRETTY RELAXING, SAW SOME FRIENDS, HUNG OUT, WENT TO A CANUCKS GAME, SANG SOME KARAOKE, AND ATE SOME FOOD. I DONT REALLY LIKE PARTYING ANYMORE, I HAVENT REALLY LIKED IT IN A WHILE AND I CANT EVEN REALLY GO OUT THESE DAYS SINCE BODY STILL HURTS AND IS RECOVERING. THIS PROCESS IS SLOW AND I REALLY HATE IT. I REALLY WANT TO PLAY SPORTS AND I CANT... I PHYSICALLY CANT. EVERYONE!!! PSA ANNOUNCEMENT!!! AVOID CAR CRASHES AT ALL COST!!! BESIDES THE CAR GETTING TOTALLY, I FEEL LIKE I GOT TOTALLED. SO MANY THINGS STILL HURT THAT ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY. WORK YOU SAY? YA WORK IS BUSY AGAIN, TOO MUCH TO DO AND TOO LITTLE TIME TO DO IT. EVERYTHING ELSE? WELL... WORKING ON MY OWN THING AND CANT WAIT TIL ITS GOOD TO GO. REALLY ONLY HAVE 4 MONTHS LEFT FOR THE DEADLINE... WONDER IF I CAN MAKE IT LOL.

OK NOW IM REALLY TIRED AND I THINK THERES A LOT OF GOOD MATERIAL ABOVE SO IM GOING TO SLEEP. GOODNIGHT ALL :)

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.
