I went to work today.
At night-ish, a couple tipped me, twice. The guy is so generous and nice.
Oh, I got quite a lot of tip today. Sadly, I'm not allowed to take any of that.
But that's ok. I don't care about tips.
And I have one research paper to finish. A whole novel to read and make notes. All must be done by Tuesday.
It's manageable. But I need to discipline myself to even START doing them.
START START START, DON!!!!!

30 Rock Season 3 Finale

Hey y'all!
So I've just watched 30 ROCK Season 3 Finale and it was amazing.
It was a 30-min show (with commercial) and it has this many people in it:
Tina Fey (love her)
Alex Baldwin (he's funny)
Elvis Costello (don't really know him)
Mary J. Blige (singer, like Queen Latifah)
Sheryl Crow (I know her)
Adam Levine (hot)
Adam Horovitz (don't know this guy)
Sara Bareilles (some singer)
Wyclef Jean (I think he sang hips don't lie with Shakira)
Norah Jones (WOW, my girl)
Talib Kweli (who?)
Michael McDonald (again, who?)
Rhett Miller (who?)
Moby (this guy is bald)
Robert Randolph (santa claus, that's what comes to my mind; cos I suddenly think Rudolf the red nose reindeer; never mind)
Rachael Yamagata (sounds japanese, but I have no idea who that is)
Cyndi Lauper (sounds familiar)
Yah. It's so star studded, it's so funny. I LOVE LIZ LEMON.
WOO HOO.
I'm happy today. I'm going back to work after a 5-day leave to deal with my stress and depression. I think I'm fit again for work.
Bye. Night!
P.S. Some fun facts about kidney:
1) The average adult kidney can process up to three gallons of liquid in a two-hour period.
2) The first successful kidney transplant took place in London, England in 1954.
3) The kidney has a higher blood flow than the brain, liver and heart.
4) Each kidney is about 4.5 inches long.
5) Each kidney weighs approximately four to six ounces.
6) The kidneys of a newborn baby are about three times larger in proportion to other organs.
7) Kidney beans are named after the kidney because they have the same shape.
8) Kidneys primary function is to get rid of the waste in the blood.
9) Kidneys can change blood pressure.
10) Kidneys help in the making of red blood cells.

i should be back
Not writing on this blog is like deserting an old friend, or so I feel.
Anyway, I'm going through a rough patch and I hope things will be fine soon.
What I have done this week:
1. Sleep.
2. Rest.
3. Watched X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It's awesome.
4. Watched Star Trek. It's awesome. Great music. But it was so loud.
And I have nothing else to blog about.
Oh yah, it's Kris versus Adam, and I think Adam will win, even though I think Kris is cute-er.
Anyway, he's not that cute.
But even if Adam win, I won't bother buying his CDs or download is songs. I don't think he has the voice I would want to listen to in my free time.
He's just better than the rest, but he's not the best.

daisies, farewell
I'm in tears. I feel painful.
As the last few frames of Pushing Daisies, episode 13 rolled past my eyes, bringing with it so much of a romantic love story, redemption, beautiful storyline, superb acting; I know I have only seconds to witness the greatest love story of all, one that have touched me like nothing before.
And the moment Vivian and Lily opened the door and saw Chuck and Ned.
And the moment a little girl's voice knocked on Emerson's door.
And the last image of Olive.
And the flyover through the whole town.
The first touch that waked Chuck.
And the dog that runs over an endless daisies fields.
Magic.
Goodbye, Chuck.
Goodbye, Olive.
Goodbye Vivian and Lily.
Goodbye, Emerson.
And goodbye Lee Pace.
I'll miss you all.
Farewell!
I haven't felt this much pain in a long time.

love
I want to be in love. I feel so lonely.
I study. I work. I make money. I try. I'm doing everything quite right. But I feel so lonely.
What is this feeling!
I have been watching shows and movies and read tons of things to take my mind away from the fact that I have been so lonely. But whatever I do, I still feel sad!
I hate being useless. And I'm not useless.
I really just need someone to love. I really just need someone to love me. I'm going to turn freaking twenty soon, without love.
And I have just popped "Miss Pettigrew lives for a day" into the dvd slot in my aluminum uni body macbook to forget the fact that I'm so alone.
Tenorboy. Lonely boy. Not loved.

The United Culture of Bali
One of my souvenir T-shirt bought by an Indonesian friend from Bali was ruined today.
It was bought in Bali, brought to Singapore, brought to Vietnam, traveled to the States with me and now it's gone.
I feel like a part of me just died.
Farewell, T-shirt. I'm gonna miss you.
I think I'm a sentimental guy.

revive
This blog is seriously dead.
There is nothing interesting going on nowadays with my life.
But I'm buying a car in two months. Saving.
On American Idol 2009, I love Megan. She is so cute. I totally love her style.
The Matt guy is good this week too.
Anoop Desai is interesting. He's so down to earth and real.
Kris Allen is cute. Nice voice. Seems decent. But he is not that extraordinary.
I seriously can't stand Adam Lambert. His style is very disgusting, I think.
Danny Gokey is so preachy.

ACJC Arts Night 2009
I have just watched some art night performances on facebook and...
...WOW!!!!
I'm so impressed. Marcus Lye is awesome. His voice control is unbelievable.
Seems like the choir has many pros.

seriously

Oh my gee. American Idol is getting SOOOOOOOOOO bad and boring.
The top 3 people from the first group aren't even that good. They are such a snooze fest. My alarm clock can snooze better.
It's so bad that I have to crawl out of bed at 2:00 am and type this.
After which I'll take a shower.
And then go back to bed again.
And by the way, I'm starting college.
Don is weird.

crap post
Ok. I don't have much to say, I just need to post something on my blog cos it's like a ghost town in here.
I still haven't succeeded in sleeping properly.
So my short-term plan:
1) Sleep 8 hours a day.
2) Finish homework 1 week ahead of time.
3) Save money to buy my first car.
And that's it.
And oh my God oh my God, Marcia Gross is getting so beautiful, she's so statue-esque. What should I do what should I do. She must be the most stunning woman on earth.
So seriously. I don't have anything else to say. But I promise a more exciting entry soon.

I kissed a girl
Well, this post is about the song "I kissed a girl" by Katy Perry.
HAHA. This post is no way about me. Whether I ever kissed a girl or not it will never end up on this blog.
I found this really nice and cute version on youtube:

my targets for 2009
1) Save money to buy a car.
2) Study. Seriously.
3) Read more. I'm getting stupid-er.
4) Exercise. So that I can fit in Topman and Club Monaco clothes.
5) Try not to get angry with my parents whenever they quarrel.
And I hope I can achieve all of that!

about a day off
New Year has started! Woo hoo!
On Monday, the store behind mine closed for CNY celebration (they are Vietnamese-Chinese), and my store was still open (my boss is Vietnamese American) so we were very crowded. It was tiring handling the heavy traffic but I had so much fun. The customers were so polite and patient. I had a nice day, even though I was so tired at the end.
I have an issue, something fresh and new and terrifying. I think it's too complicated. So, I decided on Monday night to take Tuesday off to rest and clear up my head. Well, I did rest but I still can't clear up my head. Without work, I think. And when I think, I reflect. The more I reflect, the messier it gets. So lesson learn: I should have worked to avoid thinking. Work makes me forget about my issues.
From now on, I'll try to work more, and exercise more, and keep me busy more, so that I won't have to deal with what I have been worried about. And I hope that by and by, my feelings will be gone so that I'll be back to a normal person.
Change of topic. "How I met your mother" is a cute show. It's not as funny as friends but it's smarter and more endearing. And my favorite character is Barney Stinson. Lily is also a really sweet character.
Oprah is in trouble. I think so. She looks positively unhealthy these days.
I hate HBO dramas. They are so boring.
And I'm *cough* downloading *cough* episode 5 of American Eye Doll. I hope this episode is not as boring as the last four.
And I cannot think of anything else to blog about. I am getting so boring!
=D

lalala
I nearly went ice-skating today. But I did not. Cos I was supposed to go with two guys, and I think I wouldn't have fun ice-skating with two guys. So I did not go.
Plus, I don't know how to ice-skate. I don't even know how to roller-blade.
And that's it for today. Oh by the way, San Francisco's American Idol audition is SOOOO Boring. Isn't there any talent in the Bay Area, California?
And by the way, I live in San Jose, CA which is in the Bay Area. It's a twenty-minute ride from San Francisco.
And that's all for today.

random things
1) Thailand is a damn artsy place. I swear. I came across a clip from a show at a university in Thailand and gosh, they are so good. And that's just a show from a university. Interesting. I want to visit that country before I die.
2) I also want to visit France and Italy before I die. Cos they have amazing buildings and I want to look at the buildings.
3) I also want to visit London. Just for the accent and to see TOPMAN clothes in action. (topman is a british line, just so you know, haha)
4) I'm sleeping late.
5) Oops, britney is getting boring.
6) Obama has a really huge responsibility.
7) I found some acjc 2008 carolling clips. They are good. Awesome. But my favorite song "Follow that star" sounds bad. I hope one day I can meet my acjc choir friends. I miss them like crazy. But I think I won't know what to talk about when I meet them.
8) I'm getting more independent in my own life. I'm dealing with things myself. It's kinda sad but it's safer this way.
