Summer is almost over...

Four more days and I'm on the jetplane again =/ This summer has been interesting. Maybe maybe a small turning point in my life. I've met more people this term than any other term. This includes people that I haven't met for years, people that used to be so close to me, people that inspired me, a lot of people. I've experienced ups, downs, and neither-up-nor-downs (which is the real down). I did a lot of things that I were on my medium-size to-do list. I left Karen - this was not on my to-do list. When people ask me did I break up with her, did she break up with me, or did we have a mutual break up I tell them I don't know and sometimes I said the latter one. I don't think I will regret but that doesn't mean I don't miss her. She meant and means a lot to me. I see her online every now and then but never really said hi or bye. People tell me that I should say Hi and Bye so that I will become a gentleman and I always answered with "thank you for your advice, I'll think about it" or something along the line.

I'm the type of guy that can fight a lot of things that comes but if something is too much for me to handle, I run - not away but pass. I run pass obstacles in life. I run fast and, according to most people, lovelessly. I run so fast that I forget, I run so fast that the wind almost seem to be synchronizing with me yet stinging me at the same time. If you do not know what I mean, try running in a stormy day, just before the rain drops and while the wind blows so hard from every direction. The sweat will soak you but yet you don't feel tired because the wind is telling you to run.

When the wind blows so hard at you and you are scared by the lighting what you think of first is to run home. Home is safe, home has everything you need. I have books I can read for days, I have music that I can play for and listen to for days, if I want I can go play golf and badminton for days. If it is thundering outside then I'm probably at home doing something I enjoy. Do I have everything I need in my castle?

And what is the difference between want and need? Which one do I want more? Which one do I need more.

Haha, I think everything I'm talking about these days is badminton/golf/movies/music. Is that getting boring? Is it boring if I tell you how much effort I put in when I run around the track? Running and not giving up, running and tasting blood in my throat. Is it boring if I tell you that when I hit a bad shot in golf I am perfectly Ok with it? Is it boring if I tell you that I've been trying to imitate Samuel L jackson's accent for days? Is it boring if I tell you that everytime I play jazz I feel happy and smooth. Is it ok to live a life like this?

Again,
do I need this?
do I want this?


Sagittarius (n.)
Centaur, half-man and half-horse, shooting an arrow. Chiron, wise and courageous tutor to Hercules, was wounded in a terrible accident by a poison-tipped arrow shot by Hercules. In response to his anguished pleas for mortality to end the pain, Zeus exalted Chiron to the sky. See constellation Sagitta.

Chiron decided to choose death over pain. First thing that came to mind was 'weakling'. Second thing that came to mind was 'it must've been painful'.


Now, rewind back to the first paragraph. Did I run pass karen or did I run away from her? Would anyone believe me if I say I don't know, I don't want to think about it, I just want to keep running? I don't plan to stop. Resting makes a person feel more tired, according to my coach.



Couple songs for individuals that still has those after-effects from breaking up.

Move along - The All-American Rejects
Let Go - M-Flo
Where'd you go - Fort Minor

Actually, this list kinda sucks, never mind.

Long post eh?

Reservoir Lounge

So yesterday 9pm I stepped into this concourse lounge I said to myself, I'm gonna come here very very often. Live jazz has always always been one of my favourites. Ever since that Christmas spent in New York and visited Birdland live jazz just clicked to me.

So anywhos, stayed until 12:30 last night woke up 6:30 this morning @_@
worth every bit of my sleeping time...

Check it out.

so i saw Old Boy

It's a korean movie about a guy who's been kidnapped and locked inside a room for 15 years...Actually, the movie is about him being released and finding out why he was locked. I give this movie a 8.5/10. I really like the style of the movie but for I highly NOT recommend watching this with a)parents b)kids...yup

Golf was fun today. Awesome weather but my performance was pretty poor.

Yup.

So the story begins last Tuesday when I had to go to Mountain Equipment Co-op to get Andy a bag for his birthday...

45 Degrees, pollution from rush-hour-car-exhaust, walking for 15 minutes by the time I've reached the pub/resturant district on King - and there she was, the most beautiful girl I've ever seen was holding a menu in front of this resturant. She had this really simple black dress that just brings out every single gorgeousness of her. I totally blanked out. WOW. The heatwave suddenly stopped flowing, the air in the pollution disappeared and my head was about to turn 180 degrees as I walked past her. Dang, she's beautiful.

Yup, that's about it. I forgot how she looked like...but yeah...WOW






In another note, out of all the photos w/ my mom in it, this rocks the most.

So I spent Saturday and Sunday doing my drive way. For those of you lazy mofos who are confused, I am not humping my driveway, I was filling up the cracks and paving the sealer. And just to make things more difficult, I had to go training Friday evening and Badminton for 4 hrs today. In conclusion, walking has proven to be difficult.

On another note, I saw Talledaga night: the Ballad of Ricky Bobby.

I give this movie a 9/10, or in another word, as good as ZOOLANDER!

"Every morning when I wake up, I piss excellence."
enuf said.


Badminton is getting extreme. In the end, I played 4 games straight and tried my best every game. It feels good.
