Ah, comments.

Comments are fun. Oh comments.

You know, back when I was all trying to make a blog everything back on Xanga, I loved getting comments. I wanted all my posts to have bajillions of awesome comments from everrrrrybody I knew.

And then there was all this stupid drama over comments, because some people thought that other's people's comments were stupid, and all these arguments started and yadda yadda and I really hated it. But I really wanted everyone to comment! And so I feel this way for my current blog, and I'm hoping that evil people won't cause drama. But I still would love to have comments! And I hope that I can hide my blog from those that would cause drama. We'll see how that goes.

I'm a little tired. And I use the word drama a lot.

DIANE IS COMING. Woo. She's so cute. I'll post a bajillion pictures up here. Tee hee.

So, onto more personal dilemnas...

Where to even begin? I don't know if I'm ready to pour my heart and soul into this, ey? I'm kind of insecure when it comes to this kind of thing. I guess...well. I have to start somewhere.

It still haunts me to this day, that thing I did long ago. Some of you reading this will know, and some of you might not know, but it still haunts me. And...if I could go back in time, I...would have taken it back. I would be selfish, and demanding, and...and...happy about it. And it wouldn't matter that he's dead or the other guy is getting married or even that she's...just the way I've always seen her.

It would've worked out. If only...

But no. It didn't. And now here I am. Working this job, no money, no satisfaction, no nothing. Oh what I would give, the whole world over, for just one simple feeling, that YOU were there, and that I could come home every day knowing that you WOULD be there, if not in body then in spirit. What a wonderful thing that would be.

But no, such things aren't granted to monsters like myself. And maybe I'll...go into more detail later. I'm a very troubled soul. But for now...sleep.

Ah, posting habits.

So, it seems like all I really ever do with this blog is post about every single movie and tv show episode I watch.

Which, on that note, this weekend I saw the following: Doctor Who (4 episodes), Soul Eater (2 episodes), Battlestar Galactica (1 episode), Lost (1 episode), Bug (movie), Vacancy (movie), Mulan (movie), Lilo and Stitch (movie), and Armageddon (movie).

But I would like to take a moment to point out that this is pretty much all I ever do of interest to me. But I think that, or guess that, this is not very interesting to those of you reading this blog. And so perhaps I should write more about life, and what I do during life (other than watching things, mind you), and other such oddities. It won't exactly be perfect or anything, and I'll be able to have a good start on it what with Ellen coming THIS WEDNESDAY and all...

I guess I will try. Here goes.

So today, being Sunday, I cleaned my room and my desk and all that nice stuff. It's very much less cluttered now, and there's a lot less dust swirling around the room. Not like it's going to be like this for very long, but I did think to myself that it was ironic that I actually chose to do this during spring. You know, spring cleaning?

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of having a video conversation with my good buddy. I refer to her as such because I'm sure she likes her privacy, wink wink. But it was a nice change of pace and it was nice to talk to her again. Feel better! Oh these reunions are so few and far between...

Other than that, was just work. Pretty uneventful work too. Just the same old stuff at the restaurant. I suppose I should elaborate on that more, but I don't really remember any of it. Taking orders and bringing out food and yadda yadda. It's all a blur, really.

And yet...perhaps this being a diary of sorts, I should post more...serious personal emotional type matters. There's always plenty of those running around, ey? For me, anyway. But this post is getting kind of long. Maybe I should put an end to it, ey? And maybe those italicized mini posts can become something MORE. Ahaha.

Ah well. We'll see. We'll see indeed.

I feel like somewhere, somehow, I'm failing to make this work.

Ah, Evangelion 1.0.

SO.

Mm. Today I watched an episode of Doctor Who. The one with Simon Pegg, who, if you actually clicked the link, will be playing Scotty in the new Star Trek film. I don't know how many of you know who Scotty is, but he's a pretty fun character to watch. I'm not sure how the two will fit each other but we'll see, ey?

I also watched another episode of Naruto. Yipee.

And then surprise, surprise, Evangelion 1.0 is out! WOO?! And of course, nobody knows what I'm talking about.

Neon Genesis Evangelion is this old 90s anime that was an incredible hit about these kids who had to save the world. Mind you, this wasn't like Power Rangers type save the world but real psychologically disturbing world ending horrors and like, well. Yeah.

Anyways, it was a good show, I liked it, despite many a flaw (like that horrible ending) and yeah. So then the guy who made it decides that he's going to do a reboot (similar to what we see in such movies as Batman Begins or Casino Royale. Same characters, but..you know, different. Cooler.) And it's called Rebuild of Evangelion. He's decided to release it in a format of four movies, and the first one came out! Radical turn of events, epic final battle...what more can I say? Better than the original, but still not THAT great. We'll see how the other three movies turn out. The preview is promising.

Ugh. I feel sick. Another 10 hour shift tomorrow. On that note, Lost aired tonight! Woo! We'll see how that goes.

The piano plays mysteriously in the moonlight. Will you dance the night away with me?

Ah, hotel.

Ellen is coming in less than a week. It's nerve breaking, I tell you.

So, I'm going to guess that every single person reading this has no idea what I'm about to talk about, but I'm going to talk about it anyway. And as you may have guessed from the title, it's about Hotel.

Growing up as a child, one of the few comforts that I had was the telly. I could hide from the injustices in the world and just watch television. That is, until the monsters came to get me. A euphemism, I assure you, albeit a cruel one. But that is a story for another time, perhaps.

And it just so happened that there was one particular show I would watch as often as I could. And it was Hotel. Ah Hotel, with your loveable characters, familiar settings, amusing situations... Yes, I grew up on Hotel. It was a great show. I loved every minute of it, and cheered every time they announced a new season of Hotel. Of course, then I moved to California, and was deprived of a television set for several years...so. Yeah.

TO THIS DAY, I still remember several scenes from the show. Like when Ippei (that's the assistant manager guy) accidentally chipped a priceless set of samurai armor. Or when these gangsters came and crushed an apple in a threatening show of force because Ippei inadvertantly caused one of the daughters to have her eyebrow shaven. Or when this mother abandoned her kids at the hotel and so Ippei tried to make them the perfect omelettes. Ah, all priceless memories. Of course, I was a kid back then, so all these stories could be wrong, but I remember the shaving of the eyebrows, and the crushing of the apple, and the samurai armor missing a vital piece, and etc. All childhood memories of mine of a happier time.

Then of course I try to find the show so I can watch it again. The first thing I find is that the show continued to air from 1990-2002! WOW.

The second thing I found was that apparently no one else shares my love for this show.

The third thing I found was this. Yes, you're reading that right. $190.00 for Season 3. And not the whole of Season 3, just "Season 3 Part 1" Sigh. My dreams, my hopes, dashed. No subtitled, cheap version of this show exists? Am I to forever part with a piece of my childhood? I guess it just wasn't meant to be. Like a lot of things in my life. Yes...I remembered that event oh so long ago today. I don't know why I remembered it. I remembered what it did to me, that day.

It's late. I have work.

I was thinking of you when I thought about it. Funny, isn't it? And to think that you were there on that day too. Everyone was...but you were there for me in a way that no one else was....Is that why I'm drawn to you?

Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Ah, hardship.

I saw another episode of xxxHolic. End of the story arc. Good stuff. That is all.

It occurs to me how hard it is to be there for you. This makes me sad.

Tuesday, April 22, 2008

Ah, Daleks.

I finished Baccano. It was aite. It finished well. Too disjointed for my tastes, I guess, but it was pretty good.

Saw some more Doctor Who, the one with the Dalek. I liked it. Daleks are cool.

And of course, movies.

This weekend I watched For Eternal Hearts and Invisible Target.

For Eternal Hearts was alright, for a strange romantic tale. Nothing to really say about it. The twist at the end was pretty predictable, but really, it didn't SHINE.

Invisible Target had some weeeeeeird action scenes. The choreography was kind of...weird. Other than that...well. It was okay. I've seen better, but entertainment is entertainment.

If I watched anything else I don't remember. I did go to Top Gun on Sunday and had an early dinner. It was kind of sad because when we got there, I noticed that there was a catfish swimming up to the top of the fish tank it was in. Moments later I looked again to see that it had disappeared, realizing that it was being prepared for someone's dish.

=(

AND I SUPPOSE THAT'S ALL.

Hold my hand...

Ah, snow in April.

Yes, it is snowing. Yes, it is April. HOW FUN!

Not really. I don't really get the opportunity to have as much fun in the snow as I probably SHOULD be. Something like that is...reserved for a special event. I think only a few of you would know what I'm talking about. Actually I think no one would know what I'm talking about. It's...well. When it happens, it happens. And I'll probably be ecstatic about it. But UNTIL THEN...

I am currently watching another episode of Baccano. Today I have also watched episodes of Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, and of course, xxxHolic. And I worked for 10 hours.

This episode of Baccano is pretty funny. Isaac and Miria are pretty amusing.

I guess that's all for now. I'm kinda tired.

You know what would be really cool? You, me, and a movie.

Friday, April 18, 2008

Ah, Kei.

Drama resolved? Probably.

So I suppose that since this is supposed to be like an online diary/journal/log thing, I should actually post things about life and what not. Actual going ons, I mean. I suppose it won't hurt to post such information. Well it could hurt, but who's gonna read this, right? Certainly not a certain someone I'm hoping would read this. But that's a different story.

So there's this new guy we hired at my place, we'll nickname him Cici, because it fits. Heh. He's kind of an oddball. Well, oddball isn't the right word. He talks too much. He doesn't know when to stop talking. We're all working with customers and stuff and he'll come up and be like, "Hey, look at my hair. Were you curious about why the back part is sticking up?" And it's like WOW I'M WITH A CUSTOMER? And there are other such similar incidents, talking about this Korean girl that he's liking (which, he later told me that she "lost her phone" and that she won't hang out with him unless her friends are there and also her ex-bf is threatening to beat up any guy that dates her...which, honestly, makes it seem like she's trying to let him down nicely. Although all those incidents could be true, I doubt it. Eheh.)

Anyway, that's not all. I mean there are a plethora of issues with this guy, but I won't go into them all. This guy needs to get a clue. -_- So a couple days ago Suesan was talking to me and she was saying how she noticed he seemed a little down and that he didn't want to "work" among other things. Talking to him, as is my awesome talent, I find out that he feels like everyone is giving the cold shoulder and being judgemental and all this other crap which, I mean, I'm ignoring him because I don't really talk at work, but really, with the way he's acting around people, I'm not surprised at all. And so Suesan and Mai sat him down and talked to him about what his issues were, and I wasn't really there because I needed to watch the front of course, but I overheard snippets of conversation. I guess the problem was solved, because he wasn't fired?

Well enough of that. More details later, I guess.

I started watching ANOTHER show, (Aha.), but this time it's the second season! And it's like one of the best shows ever? How could I NOT watch it!? It's xxxHolic! Yeah, I loved the first season. My mom doesn't understand why I watch such "weird" shows, but hey, it's good. More Yuko goodness. =D And let's not forget Maru and Moro! They're so...amusing. Well enough of that. I'm sure I'll rant about it later. Ehehe.

Watched another episode of Doctor Who. It was aite. Billie Piper was cute in her Victorian dress. It seems like the Doctor is pretty useless in...most situations.

Watched another episode of Naruto. It sped up, and now it's switching to filler mode. Hurrah. Not.

I should probably start watching some movies. Like, one a day or something. Grahhh.

Wouldn't it be so much easier for you to say, "I like you."? Then I could say, "Wow, I like you too." And then like, we can somehow take it from there. Sigh. Such fantasies were not meant to be, I guess.

Thursday, April 17, 2008

Ah, -invokelist.

I watched an episode of Baccano. And an episode of Soul Eater. The show has officially intrigued me, and I think I'll keep up with it, because it seems that I'm in an action-y kind of mood, and the show definitely has action. =D

That's about it for today. Drama at work, but I don't know if I want to get into that or anything just at this moment. We'll see how that turns out before I make an epic post about it. Right now I'm kinda tired and stuff.

I really wonder if you read this.

Wednesday, April 16, 2008

Ah, Mathew.

Ah, life. How you trouble me so.

So today I watched So Close. Good action, cute girls, yadda yadda, you know how it is. =)

Other than that...well. Not really much to report. It's all the same. It always is.

I'm really afraid. I'm really afraid that you're going to turn me away the moment I reveal how I feel about you. And the really scary part is that I can't stop thinking about you. I don't know what to do, and that scares me, because being rejected again is not going to be very good for my self esteem.

And yet...somewhere, somehow, I have to try. And I hope, and know, that maybe you're reading this, and even though you have no idea that it's you that I'm talking about, maybe deep down inside that heart of yours you feel the same way I do. And when I see you again I won't have to be afraid, because I'll know that you feel the same way.

Ah, the Elixir of Life.

I'm craving some water right now. Too bad I can't get any. *cry cry*

YES, I AM INSANELY WEIRD. But you all knew that, didn't you?

Mm. I missed a day in postings. Which means I completely forgot what I watched and stuff because I watched a lot. Let's see...so in no particular order...

I watched 200 Pounds Beauty. That is by no means a correct translation of the Korean title, and yes, this is a Korean movie. A more accurate translation, by yours truly, would be something like...it's hard being beautiful. Or something like that. And IMDB has a crappy entry for it so try this one. It was an endearing movie, and the girl was pretty hot. No, not her, no offense, but her. And just because I find her really cute you can look at her here, (just the picture on the top left, I think all the pictures in the photo section are pretty lame), here, and here. She SINGS TOO. WANNA HEAR?





Anyway, her singing is pretty good. Yeah. That's about it. Most likely you will never hear about her ever again on this blog because I'm bad at being a fanboy and her movie career doesn't seem to be skyrocketing or anything like that.

I also watched Once. Cute romance musical. Loved the music. That's all I can really say about that. I mean you don't really watch a movie like that for the intense emotional drama. It's all about the music. =)

I also watched Justice League: The New Frontier. I'm not a big fan of DC comics. Superman never appealed to me. Batman did, but there won't be anything Batman-y for awhile. Anyway, The New Frontier was alright. The ending reminded me of the original Star Wars Death Star trench run.

I think that is all. I saw another episode of Doctor Who. The second episode of the first season of the 2005 series. Yeah. It's alright. It's what I expect it to be. We'll see if it surpasses that, eheh. But entertainment is entertainment.

I get the feeling that I'm failing miserably.

Sunday, April 13, 2008

Ah, heat.

Another day, another dollar. I worked some today, came home and watched some stuff. What, you ask? Well, I guess I can tell you.

I started watching Doctor Who, and while I'm not starting from the very beginning, it's still an okay show to watch. I think. There is lots of running, as I had previously thought, but watching it again reminded me why I kind of wanted to watch it again in the first place when I had seen a commercial for it a while back. And the reason wasssss.... Well, the girl was kind of cute. AHAHA. Yes, that is probably the sole reason. Ah well, now that I've started, I might as well finish.

I also saw the newest episode of Battlestar Galactica. Tensions are heating up! It's getting interesting, and since this is the show's final season I might as well stick with it to the end.

Also, did you hear? Lost is getting ANOTHER HOUR. Although, I suppose this isn't very exciting to some of you that may be reading this. Ah well.

For movies, well. I only watched one. And a pretty crappy one at that. Naraka 19 was kind of...bad. Maybe it's because my subtitles were all out of whack and didn't correctly convey the feelings of the actresses...HA. No, it was just bad. Well, not bad bad. It was bearable, at least. And Gillian Chung (on left) wasn't too bad looking either. Actually that's pretty much the only reason I watched the movie in the first place. Eheh.

And yeah, not much else to report for today.

Did I screw up?

Saturday, April 12, 2008

Ah, post previews.

STUPID POST PREVIEW. THE FORMAT IS ALL WRONG AND IT LOOKS ALL JUNKY. *cry cry*

Ah, experimentational recaps.

So today I will be attempting the whole picture/movie thing, to see how that works with the blog and stuff. After learning how it works and stuff.

Boy, I'm tired. And my feet hurt. I guess that's what I get for working those super long shifts at the restaurant, ey? But yeah. I give orders to my subordinates and they are followed! Ha ha, I r have powar! Nifty.

So, as many of you may know, I took a trip to California a couple weeks back. It was quite awesome. I will now attempt to post these pictures online using my blog.


Hey hey, I figured it out! I think. So on Sunday I stayed up allllll night because there is, of course, no way I'm getting up that early. And I flew on the plane where I had the whole row to myself to lie down in. Then these two young gentlemen picked me up from the airport and we immediately proceeded to Starbucks for some well deserved caffeine. Mm... Then we had lunch at some Chinese restaurant that I don't really remember the name to but that's okay. I then spent the rest of the day at Jeff's house playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl, although I'm not very fond of that game. Oh well.

Then I slept over at Hollis's house and got to see Kate again! Yay! We woke up at the nice decent hour of 1pm in the afternoon or something like that and I don't really remember what happened on that day. I do remember a lot of shuffling around and such, because I was house hopping essentially. I got to visit my friend and see their ADORABLE kids.
AREN'T THEY SO CUTE? AND HANUL RECOGNIZED ME! I feel so special. =D Ethan didn't though, but then again it was the first time I had met him! And my, he looks just like the father, I must say. Although, the mother really wouldn't let me take her picture for whatever reason or other. BUT I DID EVENTUALLY GET IT. Like, three days later.
Anyways, yeah, we spent a good time just hanging around, I played with the kids, we had fun, caught up on old times, yadda yadda. It was good. =) Then I slept over at Jeff's place. Good ole Jeff.

Tuesday I had to wake up early because Jeff's family are all early risers and I was sleeping on the couch. Not like that was a bad thing, because I don't really mind sleeping on couches, but yeah, I was in the living room, and it would be bad if I slept till like 5pm and etc. Of course, the other reason I woke up early was because I had a lunch date! Sort of.

So I haven't seen this kid in awhile. Ah, she's changed back to her old self. I mean, well. I guess no one would really know what I was talking about, but yeah. Lunch was nice, we got to walk around Central Park's Japanese Garden because apparently she had never been, and yeah. It was good seeing her again. These pictures were taken in San Mateo's 3rd Avenue Public Library's Underground Parking Lot. I'm sure those of you that know about it already know, and those of you who don't, don't really care, but DANG THEY OVERHAULED THAT THING LIKE CRAZY. It's like the designer's brand name of libraries, seriously. We're talking cafe/fountain/elevators/glass doors/and an UNDERGROUND PARKING LOT. Holy crap. And yeah. Went back and slept at Jeff's for another night. There's his dog. Yay. Then I went to sleep, because of course I had to wake up early yet again. But Wednesday was a pretty big day too, because I had to go to SAN JOSE. BY TRAIN. Scary, really. I'll talk about that more later. Anyway, before I caught the train, I managed to persuade another friend to have lunch with me. We went to Oidan, which is that ramen house on top of Suruki supermarket down on 4th avenue. Good stuff, apparently she had never been! Which was a complete shock to me, considering how close she is and all.

And yeah, we went back to her place in hopes that I'd be able to say hi to her mother, but it was not to be. Oh well, if she's reading this, a happy hello to you and warm blessings from me. =)

Back on topic, I ran over to the train station from her house because I didn't want to be late and all. Managed to get there just in time! And I hopped on the train to San Jose and who was I greeted by? Why, this adorable young woman.
And seriously, she is the most intelligent baby I have ever met. SERIOUSLY. SO SMART. I AM IN AWE BY HER LEVEL 999 GENIUS. Yeah, and I had dinner at her house and it was a lovely time. We had card tricks and nengmyun and happy go lucky girls dancing around singing. Yeah. Good times yo, good times.
And the absolute cool part? THEY'RE COMING TO SEATTLE. AND THEY'RE STAYING AT MY PLACE. YAYUH!?

Heh. But we'll save that for when they get here.

And they drove me back to the train station, but of course I got there late because we chatted for just a smidgen too long, and I had to stay at the train station for an hour before the next train arrived. Talk about scary, did you know that at Tamien train station they have speakers attached to the ceiling, and every so often they will blast loud scary ominous screams of death for no reason? Seriously, I thought vile gang members were coming down the train tracks to rob me of my backpack. Okay, in reality, they're supposed to be owl calls, but seriously now, who DOES that? The government, that's who. And uh. Yeah. That was my exciting Wednesday! Pretty nifty, ey?

Oh Thursday. Thursday was very delightful for me. =) I got to see this pretty face again, and we met up and went to Starbucks and just caught up on old times. We then went to the post office and the BRAND NEW SPIFFY LIBRARY/SPACE STATION and hung out there for awhile. Twas very nice seeing her again. I miss her already. =X I also browsed through all 5272 of her picture library, which was quite an impressive feat, I must say. And I met her grandmother! She was very nice. I liked her smile, although I don't have a picture.
Then it was dinner! With those lovely adorable kids again. Ahaha! And a few others as well, since word had spread around that I had come back to town. We hooked up at their place and had dinner and played Mafia and just talked and had a good time. Twas very nice.
Indeed, I was able to snap a picture of the elusive mother. (From before, if you were reading all that.)
Yes, the next couple of rows will be just pictures of everyone/everything that night.




The formatting on this site is weird, and I apologize for any weirdness, but I'm still getting used to this. And yeah. Then I went and kicked it at Hollis's place and taught Larry how to dance. Properly. Kate helped, and while he's not a breakdancing master, I think he'll do okay if we ever went clubbing.

Then I woke up early yet again on Friday morning to go to HEIDI'S PIES. Yes, a tradition with me and San Mateo.


And who better to go with than Shorty! YAYUH!? Good times yo, although she had a horrible previous evening, and she's going through some rough times right now, but hey, I'm here for you, ey? Let the good times live on. And yes, we chatted, and caught up, and drove around San Mateo and Foster City and just chilled like we always do. Later that day I went to a Dungeons and Dragons session with some other cool peeps, we had dinner, I didn't really take pictures because I didn't really feel the appropriateness of the situations, yadda yadda. It was good times. We did however, go to Larry's house after and play many a round of Mafia, where I feel I succeeded many a time.

There's us all! Yay. Yeah. I don't know what much to say about that. It was a good week, but Saturday was prettttttty frenetic. I had to meet a bajillion people all at the same time in different places. Seriously crazay. But it was good times. Got to see a bunch of people, catch up on the good stuff, had a couple drinks here and there, and really I'm just trying to wrap things up because this is a really really long post. I then proceeded to stay up all night long, then I got on my flight and flew back to Seattle where I found that it had snowed. In March. Crazy, huh? And then it snowed again the day after. And it was like, "What?".

Aha, I guess that sums up my California trip. Hope you enjoyed the pictures. I have more, if you wants to see. =D
Okay yeah, I just previewed the post and there are two spots in the thing that I have no idea how to fix, so I'm just going to leave it as is.
And now it's not even spacing correctly. Oh wells.

So, let's see. Catching up with the real world, I watched Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo, and Bewitched.

Teen Titans, well. I like the show, what can I say? Ahaha. I miss it, and I wish they made more episodes. Oh well.

Bewitched, although I dislike Will Ferrell, I love the soundtrack, and I love Nicole Kidman, so hey, that's all I need, right? =D

Okay, this post is way beyond long. Enjoy the pics, I'll post more latar. =)

Friday, April 11, 2008

Ah, pink straws.

I'm tired. My feet hurt. I'm tired. Ugh.

Watched some more Baccano today. It's starting to make more sense, but it's still wild and crazy. No real verdict yet, I suppose. Miria is cute. Her personaliy, rather, is cute, in that clueless copycat kind of way.

I re-watched The 40 Year Old Virgin for no reason other than just to watch it. Aha. I really should start cracking on movies I HAVEN'T seen. Anyway, 40 year old virgin is good. Cept it's PRETTY HARDCORE rated R. So if you've got kids around I'd probably suggest keeping them away until they're like maybe 15. Cuz you know, 15 is the new 18. So, yeah, it's a good movie. I don't really feel like going indepth into it, but yeah. If you're old enough, go for it! =D

I wanna watch Bewitched now. Ahaha. I may not like Will Ferrell, but Nicole Kidman is hot yo.

I visited Safeway today. It was nice seeing a bunch of familiar faces. Yeah. They want me to come back because it is god awful there. GO FIGURE, right? One must wonder why I quit in the first place. Some customers recognize me too. They miss me because I gave such awesome customer service. The "new guys" apparently have no idea what they're doing.

And with good reason! That store's management is horrible. And seriously, they don't train people properly. The person who was hired a couple weeks before I left lasted one day. And I totally knew that he was going to have such a hard time on his first solo shift, and I felt really bad because I knew the job would chew him up and spit him out, so I really tried to train him in the short four hours that I had him, but nope. He quit after that Saturday.

Then after I quit Debbie tells me that the next guy lasted a day, the guy after that lasted three days, and well Jared is currently working back there and he's been there for a good month. He's a good guy, I'm sure he'll be fine there. Solidly, at least. We'll see how that goes, ehehe.

In the meantime, no one comments on my blog. =( =(((((!!!

Remember that one time you were there for me? I do.

Thursday, April 10, 2008

Ah, permits.

Aha! Today I have somewhat more interesting news to post than I do on regular days when there is really nothing to post.

I woke up super early morning today. Gosh. Nobody should have to get up at ungodly hours. And then I went to the DoL to get my permit. Yes, I did indeed pass their test, and now I am allowed to drive again. This time, I'll have to actually like, force my mom to get me my license. Then I'm good for awhile.

After that I went to my old Safeway workplace to hit it up for some much needed caffeine. Saw my old manager Debbie as well as a couple other familiar faces. Was good seeing people again. Yeayuh, good times.

Then ELLEN called me, and it was like whoa, she called me. But I was in the middle of driving, so it was like whoa, can't pick up the phone when I'm driving. And so she left me a message saying, "Eric, call me back as soon as possible, k? Bye." And that was like whoa, she never does anything like that. So I called her back and she's coming up to Seattle! YAY. And she's coming with her cute kid too. YAY. If you would like to see a picture, go ahead and IM me for it. Aha.

Seriously though, her kid is like a supergenius, in a baby kind of way. She's always like...pondering in thought or something. And she talks and she walks and it's like whoa she's only like, one year old? Seriously.

Then I went to work, which is always somehow interesting. Hired a new guy, James, he seems alright. Better than Christopher, anyway. But that's another story for another time. And I worked for uhm. 10 hours? Yeah. Then I came home.

And when I got home, I watched Dan in Real Life. It was pretty good, I must say. Kinda light on the comedy, more so than I would have hoped, but it was still good. Made me think about life, anyway. And I almost teared up at one point. I guess I'm getting sentimental in my old age. ONE DAY I'll watch a movie and I'll start crying, I swear.

I'm tired, I think I'll sleep now. Till later then.

I miss talking to you.

Ah, homeskillet.

I don't really have much to say.

I really wonder if there will ever be an "us".

Ah, Gahz'rilla.

Ah, nothing new this weekend. Just the same old stuff that happens every weekend.

I slayed Gahz'rilla. Does that count as news? =O

So uhm, let's see. I started watching this new show called Baccano. It's intriguing. I'm only 3 episodes in and I'm not really sure what to say. There are like 50 main characters and I have no idea what's really going on because the perspectives keep changing and what not. Although I'm sure everything will be explained and tied in at the end and what not.

This weekend I saw Lars and the Real Girl. To be honest it was kind of boring and predictable. It seems like the makings of a good movie, in theory, but I wasn't really sure what I was watching. There were too few laughs for it to be a comedy, not enough emotion for it to be a drama, and certainly not enough love for it to be a romance. So what was it? I'm not really sure. It was okay, that's what it was.

On the other hand, I also watched King of California which was a much better movie. I wouldn't call it the best movie ever, but it was still a good watch. It had the right combination of comedy and drama that I didn't feel bored watching it, and was rather taken in by the various antics of the characters.

And yeah. Other than that I haven't really done much. Just sleep and junk. My mom went to Canada for her thing. Came back later. I should probably study a bit for my license test thing. And yeah. Just working a lot lately to make money for various mom-related pursuits. Sigh.

Someone IMed me over the weekend and said, ""if you find the person you love, your "missing rib" dont let her go." It was totally completely random. His next sentence was explaining the missing rib part, about the Biblical story of Adam and Eve being created from his rib and all that. Then he signed off. It makes me wonder if it's a sign, because this guy never IMs me about anything for anything. I don't even remember who he is, and I'm sure he doesn't remember who I am. So I really do wonder if it's a sign, and maybe it's more than that, something telling me to not let you go? And for what it's worth, I'm beginning to think that I shouldn't let you go.

Ah, fingernails.

Ah, rekindled friendships, what a wonderful thing. =)

No word on my friend. I know she'll be fine, but I still worry about her condition, not just physically. I can only hope that things will turn out okay for her. I'm still rooting for you Shorty! =D

Sigh.

So, having not seen any movie, I instead saw a couple TV shows. Naruto (yes, I still watch it, yes, it's still bad, yes, I still have hopes for it, yes, it looks like maybe the show might be getting better.) Battlestar Galactica's final season started, and the season premier was pretty hot, I must say. Starts off with an epic space battle, then reigns it in and throws in all these questions and suspense and drama and all that good stuff. Who's the final Cylon!? The mind boggles at such mysteries.

And yes, work work work. Even more so now because I don't make the cut, it seems. So I have to work more hours to make the money to stuffs. I might have to take up a second job again. Oh boys, how fun.

And yeah, it's the weekend. Time to relax, ey? Watch a few movies, sit back in the chair, sleep a lot. All that good stuff.

Thinking about you tears me apart.

Ah, shucks.

As I write this I have just learned that my friend got into a car accident. It's too late to call her NOW, but I'm going to do it the moment I get a chance. It sucks being really far from everybody. I'm contemplating doing the flying down to California thing to see if she's really alright.

Well. Maybe I have an ulterior motive for going down to California.....Eheh.

But yeah. I'm worried. And this only ADDS to the multitude of problems I'm looking at. Sigh. But she's strong. She'll be fine. I will see her again. I just wish I could do more, you know?

Ah. Anyway, enough melodrama. I saw The Game Plan starring Dwayne Johnson and Peyton Kelly. Very cute movie. I enjoyed it quite thoroughly. Not much else to say about that.

Except for one small minor detail. Sandra Bullock and Roselyn Sanchez look VERY much alike, don't they? Pictures don't do it justice, but whenever I see Roselyn Sanchez in a movie, I always think, "Hey, I didn't know Sandra Bullock was in this film." And then I look closer and I'm like, "Oh wait, that's not her."

Sigh. I guess I'll do the sleep thing now. Not much I can do right now anyway except hope for the best. Shorty, take care, aite? We've got to meet up again because the last time was WAY too short. <3

Is it a sin to think about you during times like these?
