ITS NOT ABOUT HOW YOU START, ITS ABOUT HOW YOU FINISH

SO THE TITLE IS ALSO THE QUOTE THAT I HEARD THE OTHER DAY WHILE WATCHING "COOK VS CON." ITS A COOKING CONTEST SHOW LIKE IRON CHEF AND PASTRY CONTESTS. ANYWAYS SO I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT COOKS VS CONS AS IN CRIMINALS... TURNS OUT ITS REAL LIFE COOKS VS CONS AS IN FAKE CHEFS LOL. HONESTLY YOU WOULD THINK THE SAME AS ME IF YOU JUST LOOKED AT THE PEOPLE ON THE SHOW... THEY ALL LOOK LIKE CRIMINALS LOL. ANYWAYS THATS NOT THE POINT. AT ONE POINT OF THE SHOW THE GUY SAYS THAT HES SHOWING EVERYONE THAT ITS NOT ABOUT HOW YOU START, ITS ABOUT HOW YOU FINISH. HE SAID IT BECAUSE HE WAS ALMOST IN LAST PLACE AND HE WANTED TO LET HIS SON KNOW THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS COME BACK OR DO BETTER OR EVEN WIN... WHICH HE DID END UP WINNING THE SHOW. SO BACK ON TOPIC... THE STATEMENTS PRETTY TRUE AND FOR SOME REASON IT STUCK WITH ME. IN LIFE IT REALLY ISNT ABOUT HOW SOMETHING STARTS, ITS ABOUT HOW IT ENDS OR HOW YOU MAKE IT END. TAKE SCHOOL FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CAN START AND NOT KNOW WHERE OR WHAT YOU WANT TO STUDY. SOMEHOW YOU END UP SOMEWHERE STUDYING SOMETHING, AND GUESS WHAT? WHEN YOU GRADUATE YOURE FINISHED. SOMEHOW IT ALL JUST WORKS OUT. SURE THERES HARD WORK IN BETWEEN AND WHATEVER ELSE YOU NEEDED TO DO TO GET THERE, BUT THE MAIN POINT IS THAT YOU FINISHED AND GOT TO THE END. STARTING A NEW JOB, YOU START IT AND IT MIGHT NOT BE WHERE YOU WANT TO BE OR WHAT YOU WANT TO DO BUT SAME THING YOU HOPEFULLY END UP WHERE YOU WANT TO BE. EVERYTHING IN LIFE STARTS WITH YOU STARTING, YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE HAD THE BEST START, OR YOU JUST FELL INTO IT, OR YOU JUST HAD TO DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO, BUT SOMEHOW... EVENTUALLY... INEVITABLY... YOU GET TO THE FINISH LINE, YOU GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO GO, YOU DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO. THERES A LOT IN BETWEEN TO GET YOU FROM POINT A TO POINT B, BUT YOU CANT GIVE UP. NO ONE EVER ACHIEVED WHAT THEY ACHIEVED WITHOUT STARTING, AND THEY ONLY ACHIEVED WHAT THEY ACHIEVED BY FINISHING. THIS TIES INTO EVERYTHING THAT I HAVE SAID BEFORE ABOUT DOING WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE, EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON, IT WILL ALL WORK OUT EVENTUALLY, AND LIKE A DOZEN OTHER POSTS. THINK ABOUT IT, YOU STARTED YOUR DAY AND THEN A BUNCH OF THINGS HAPPEN DURING THE DAY, AND THEN YOU FINISH THE DAY. EVERYTHING IS ALL ABOUT STARTS AND FINISHES. IVE STARTED MANY THINGS, AND I HAVE A GOALS SET IN MIND, A PLACE I WANT TO BE, A THING I WANT TO DO, AND IN ORDER TO GET THERE I NEED TO DO A LOT. IM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DAY THAT I GET TO THAT FINISH LINE AND SAY THAT I DID IT AND I MADE IT. EVERYTHING I DO IS WORKING TOWARDS THAT FINISH LINE. NOT MANY PEOPLE REMEMBER HOW SOMETHING STARTS, BUT EVERYONE REMEMBERS HOW IT ENDS. YOU NEED TO FINISH STRONG, DONT LET ANYTHING GET IN YOUR WAY, DO IT AND PROVE TO YOURSELF THAT YOU CAN DO IT. BESIDES DOING IT FOR YOURSELF, ITS A GOOD TRAIT TO HAVE, BEING ABLE TO SEE THINGS THROUGH TO THE END. YOU JUST HAVE TO SURVIVE IN THE MEAN TIME. LIFE IS ONE WHOLE PROCESS AS WELL. YOU DONT HAVE A CHOICE OF WHEN YOU WERE BORN, YOU GO THROUGH LIFE, AND IN THE END WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBERED FOR? MY ADVICE... DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO, SO AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOU CAN SAY TO YOURSELF THAT YOU GAVE IT YOUR ALL.

SO HONESTLY THE POST COULD HAVE KEPT ON GOING I THINK IT WILL GO IN CIRCLES AND CIRCLES. WELL GUESS IL STOP THAT THERE LOL. OH I WENT TO THE VAISAKHI FESTIVAL ON THE WEEKEND AND IT WAS PRETTY COOL. WE ATE A LOT OF CURRY LOL. WENT TO WATCH THE FOOTBALL GAME AND WE WON. WORK IS STILL WORK AND IM TIRED AND IM FALLING ASLEEP, SO GOOD NIGHT IT IS :) ALSO THE POST WAS ACTUALLY ON TOPIC AGAIN... FINALLY A REAL POST LOL

ITS ALL A MYSTERY

SO THE NEW OUTLET OPENED UP NEAR THE AIRPORT LATE LAST WEEK AND OVER THE WEEKEND SOME FRIENDS AND I DROPPED BY. THERE WAS NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT IT AND THE PRICES REALLY WERENT THAT GREAT AND THE SELECTION WAS MEH... THE ARCHITECTURE WAS COOL BUT THATS ABOUT ALL. OH OH OH AND A FREAKING HUGE LINE UP FOR COACH... AND I WAS ALL ASIANS... HAHA. THEN WE WENT TO ONE OF THOSE MYSTERY ROOMS WHERE YOU HAVE TO ESCAPE AND IT WAS MY 1ST TIME TO ONE OF THEM. WE PICKED ONE THAT WAS THE 2ND HARDEST TO BEGIN WITH... AND LET ME JUST SAY THAT IT WAS REALLY WELL MADE AND WE FAILED PRETTY BAD... HONESTLY YOU HAVE TO KNOW A LOT ABOUT RANDOM THINGS CAUSE THEY WILL HAVE CLUES AND ITS LIKE WOW... HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO RECALL OR KNOW THIS... AT THE END WE WERE TOLD WE WERENT EVEN HALF WAY THROUGH... SO YA IF NONE OF YOU HAVE TRIED IT BEFORE YOU SHOULD GO. ITS FUN. ANYWAYS AFTER THAT WENT BACK TO THE OUTLET FOR A BIT MORE LOOKING AROUND. THEN SPAGHETTI FACTORY, AND FOOD MASSAGE. YES, RANDOM, 6 PEOPLE TO FOOT MASSAGE. WE WERE UP THERE TO PAY AND THEY AUTOMATICALLY PUT A $10 TIP ON IT... SHE DIDNT EVEN LET ME CHOOSE... I DIDNT EVEN GET THE MASSAGE YET... HOW CAN I TIP BEFORE I GET THE SERVICE... ANYWAYS SO THAT WASNT TOO COOL. IT WAS A LONG DAY BUT IT WAS QUITE FUN, NOW WE PLANNING FOR ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE ESCAPE ROOMS LOL

SPEAKING OF MYSTERIES... EVERYTHING YOU DO IS A MYSTERY. YOU GO THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT REALLY KNOWING WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. YOU TRY TO DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN AND PLACE YOURSELF IN A PLACE WHERE YOU YOU KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT, BUT YOU DONT. NOTHING IS 100% CERTAIN OR GUARANTEED IN THE WORLD. EVERYTHING CAN CHANGE IN A SPLIT SECOND AND YOUR WHOLE WORLD COULD BE FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN. LIFES A MYSTERY AND THATS PART OF THE FUN PART OF IT. NEVER FULLY KNOWING WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. I GUESS THIS IS TOPIC CAME UP CAUSE AS MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS COUPLE OF POSTS IM STARTING SOMETHING UP, AND ITS READY. EVERYTHING IS GOOD TO GO AND WE WILL NOW SEE IF I AM ABLE TO DO WHAT I WANT TO. RIGHT NOW WITH ALL MY PLANNING AND EVERYTHING I STILL DONT KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN. OF COURSE I WANT TO SUCCEED AND MAKE IT ALL WORK OUT BUT WHO KNOWS UNTIL I ACTUALLY START IT UP. ONLY ONE WAY. ONLY TIME CAN TELL AND THATS WHY THE MYSTERIES OF LIFE IS SO FASCINATING. I COULD TALK ABOUT THIS TOPIC ALL NIGHT LONG BUT IM TIRED FROM WORK AND EVERYTHING SO IM OUT. OH YA AND I TOOK MY FRIEND TO HER 1ST BASEBALL GAME AND IT WAS FUN. I SWEAR WE WERE THE LOUDEST ONES THERE AND IT WAS GOING TO GET ROWDY HAHA. SO MUCH FUN :)
