2-Years Anniversary Fun

Weekend Blurb? This weekend isn’t just a blurb. It was a fun-filled Saturday alone and even though I could say it in 2 or 3 sentences, it’s not just a weekend blurb.

Friday night, I arrived at Chelsea’s place. Noting special there, just haven’t seen her for 2 weeks and that in itself took Friday night to fill each other out from not seeing each other for a while.

Saturday morning, I decided to buy roses for her. I contemplated the time I should have left, but decided to do it later as I could get back, get the flowers in a vase, and made her late breakfast. Nope, didn’t go as planned. She woke up when I got back with the roses and a balloon in my hand. No big, I could work around this little thing. Made French Toast with her for breakfast and had breakfast with her mom.

Saturday evening, we went to Walt Disney World. Left at 4:30PM. We laid around her place until we had to leave. A little before I took the exit, she already guessed where I was taking her for dinner, Planet Hollywood. I still couldn’t surprise her (this one was a pretty easy give away to be honest), she has made the day difficult for me to surprise her. There wasn’t a wait, so we took our seat and started talking about plans after. I told her we could walk around Marketplace and go to Pleasure Island later in the evening. She was up for it and didn’t suspect anything further.

Once we were done with dinner, I told her that we should walk around a little. Since we talked about Pleasure Island (PI) earlier, she wanted to go there, but I told her I wanted to take her somewhere first. We didn’t have to go to PI then. We saw a guy playing a double-neck guitar (12-string on one neck and 6-strong on the other) and a didgeridoo (a modern one). Then took some pictures. We started walking toward Disney Quest and Virgin store (which was what it used to be). She’s not been to Disney Quest before, which I was quite surprised and I was surprised when I found out that the Virgin store is now somewhat of a museum of Prince Diana. I wasn’t sure of it, but we continued walking.

She saw Cirque du Soleil building and mentioned how her dad and step-mom got to see it twice for free because it was paid for and how it wasn’t fair, so I casually said, “Why don’t we go see if they have a showing?” As we walked closer, she saw a sign for the prices and pulled me toward it. I told her not to look at that nonsense and walk with me. She continued pulling, so I just let her hand go as she went to look at it and I went straight to the ticket booth. I have bought the tickets on-line some time last week and I was just going for the pick-up. She was surprise. Finally! I knew I would get her for that one.

Morning didn’t go as plan. Dinner was a give away. Finalé was a sure thing.

We walked around Marketplace a little because we were still an hour and a half early. Seeing her happy like that brought joy in my heart. I knew I’ve done well ^_^

Cirque du Soleil was money worth spending. The place was a little smaller than I thought, so we were 5 seats away from the stage. I was hoping it would be a little further, but was a excellent view nonetheless. I wouldn’t sit that close if I were to go again, but I would definitely go again.

We ended the night with some dessert at Sonic and a few hours in each others’ arms.

Our 2-years anniversary of going out together.

I love you sweetie!

9 Years Later and It is Coming

I’ve had my desktop for a long time, around 9 Years. I still use it to play games like World of Warcraft. It was worth the money spent on it, but it was my own money (I’m not complaining though). It was a gift from my mom and I was only in 9th grade then. I wasn’t working, so I couldn’t afford one.

Fast forward to the present. I am currently waiting for the computer parts that I recently bought. It will be my first-actual-real PC (personal computer) because I used my hard-earned money, and I will be putting it together from the physical parts to installing the OS (operating system) into it. It’s going to be a gaming computer mainly, but I will be getting more hard drive for it for separate storage such as music and anime. This is my first time putting a computer together from parts, so I will more than likely share this experience with everyone ^_^

My old computer lasted 9 years. It’s a Dell and it actually still works very well. I want to upgrade it because it’s not good enough to play the few games that are coming out and it has served its time. I hope my next desktop will serve me just as long or longer. I’ve only had 2 desktop in my life and both of them turns out to work for a very long time. I would love for this desktop to last more than 10 years, but if it lasts between 7 – 10 years, I’ll be just as happy.

I’ll likely get the parts next week. The wait continues…

Yesterday, the 2-day

Yesterday was 2 years anniversary for Chelsea and me AND 2 months working for the new job I was at. Man, the 2’s keep coming, and it is definitely one of my numbers.

Did not spend the time with Chelsea like I wanted because she’s on vacation with her dad and family. She’s coming back tomorrow and we’ll spend this weekend together. I can’t really write what I have planned since she reads my entries, so it’ll have to wait.

Other than that, everything’s been better. I feel I can talk with my sister like normal again and we just went for a buffet dinner tonight. It was good. She recommended the place.

Tonight’s short. I thank you all for reading. Yesterday, I had the highest read ever, 30. I think it might be some people just clicking the link, so that might not even be anything, who knows.

Blogs are meant for knowledge and for sharing. Information that matters to someone other than the writer. Here’s something I’m going to share:

Honor takes you a long way. In today’s society where trying to get the best results for the lowest cost might be important, but when you develop that mentality, honor is some times lost. Especially if you’re there to cheat people as well. Honor your words. It’s ok to take free things, they’re free for a reason, but for those that’s not, don’t. I’ve been keeping up with some spec design site. People hold competition for designers to do job and “pay” the winner(s). Well, not all competition goes that way and the competition holder decides not to have a winner. I’m thinking they have someone to do the job, but probably stealing the ideas from the designers who take time to do it. That’s not honoring. If you want to take that design, then choose that person as a winner.

I can never work like that, not even if I want to put my thing out. If I do, I’ll build my own website for portfolio and do logos or web designs and put them on my portfolio.

Honor, respect, and most of all, honesty. Take that to heart, live life with such and not only will you contribute to society but society will notice and contribute to you.

Heck to Today, but BAM in My Face O_O

Titles and headers are great things. They pretty much summarize the story as a whole, but to know the whole story, you still have to read.

Today = SUPPLIES (shout it really loud and you’ll get it… or say it loud with a fake Chinese accent) day for me. Why? I don’t know. I can’t say why really, but it is. I don’t know why it has to happen today, because I can guarantee it wasn’t like that anytime since 2 months ago.

This morning while getting ready for work, I decided to try a new approach to my day. I was going to say, “Heck to what other people think. Why should I care if others care about themselves more? I’m going to have the day for me and I’m going to plan it all out during lunch, and I’m going to just have a me day. I’ll work for work, but other things… for me.” Yea, don’t do that, especially if you’re me.

The day started well. Had a team meeting, all was smooth and normal. Started working… and then lunch plan was cancelled. Decided to go to lunch with co-workers because we have to get something done for work.

There goes my plan to plan out my day O_O (First BAM! in the gut. Not too bad, still can go on.)

I get a call and I was told that there might be a position opening that I might be interested or able to do it. WHAT?!?! I have a job. But it’s still a good opportunity. Yea, I know. First, was told the person working there up and left without reason all of a sudden. Then they’re desperate to look for someone? (Desperate, really? Will you pay me $100,000 to work for you? I don’t think they’re THAT desperate). In any case, that brings about thoughts into my head. How can I leave my work place that I just started 2 months ago? If the job is a good job and I do want to go, I personally cannot bring myself to leave a company like that.

What about only for me day? Yea yea, that was thought of too and I can’t say that I was able to do that at all…. BAM! Second one was to my face.

God has a sense of humor, he would constantly remind me that there are people around me and I’m always thinking of others. I can’t have a day thinking about myself and all for me. I have to say though, my sister said it best today… um, I don’t remember what she said. I know I was going to quote her, but dam you my memory. Stop forgetting things. I was also going to quote Chelsea, but I forgot. Dam you memory again.

Well, there wasn’t a third BAM!! I calmed down, settled with the obvious choice… just send in my resume and see what happens. If it’s meant to be, why not? If it’s not, then why bother? I’m happy either way.

*Secretly rubbing hands together evilly and whisper o-so-softly* “Come on $100,000.”

Oh, speaking of money, the Florida powerball lottery sure is a lot of money. What is it? 186 Million dollars? I wonder if I should try my hand in it? I probably won’t, unless I hear the numbers very clearly in my head. Good luck to those who are trying and remember, wisdom will take you a long way. If I won that money, 1/2 of it is going to churches and missionaries. The others, well, they’re probably going to get taxed, heheheh. Whatever’s left would go to bills and debts and the rest is for me to live a relaxed life. If I don’t win it, I’ll still have money going to church and missionaries, going to tax, bills, and debts. The rest of my money I’m earning, they’re still going into my life. So, it really is no difference, only a larger sum.

I can guarantee something I would think of doing and BAM! I get punched in my face (not literally just so everyone is clear).

I love my life. It’s surrounded by great families, friends, and most of all… air. Yes, air. I can breathe and live with it ^_^

Eating Me from the Inside Out… is This Jealousy?

I rarely talk about my ex anymore, especially on-line. Originally, it was for carefulness with how I say certain things, but who really cares. Those who read this either doesn’t know too much about it, doesn’t really care about my life, just reading my entries because they came across it, know me from some time ago, or people who already know me. So, why am I so afraid to share my thoughts? I was always told to be careful of what’s on the Internet. What other people could do to me over the Internet. Sure, they could, maybe with words, but that’s about it. For those who already know me in person and still keep in touch with me, they’ll tell me what I’m doing is wrong if they know about it. Why should I not share? This on-line log was originally a journal that is to share with anyone who could find light through their hard times. Perhaps learning from something that I had to learn the hard way. A friend commented saying that I’ve always seem happy and cheery and find a way to make things possible. Why not do it like always right?

Now that my frustration sounding paragraph is over, this has nothing to do with my ex at all. I will be honest, I do wish my relationship with my ex is a little better than it is now, considering she is friends with my sister. We’re both happy in our relationships and why should we bother with each other right? True and point taken. Somewhere within me though, I feel like we just became acquaintances. Nothing wrong with that, not many ex-es keep in communication at all. If I were to see her in a coffee shop sitting there, could I possibly sit down and talk with her, or would it be awkward. That is where I would question my relationship with her, and I would like the answer to to be: “Sit down and talk with her for however long time permits and leave our own ways.” but I think it’s at: “Look to make sure it’s her… it is her. Buy my coffee… takes a sip… walk out of coffee shop and drive away even though I really wanted to sit down and enjoy my coffee.”

What I’m really jealous about is the relationship my sister can keep with her ex. I guess that’s why I’m mad, upset, and frustrated. I think that’s my jealousy on the surface. I am upset at the series that unfolds and the decisions she made. She’s alright with it though. As a brother, what should I do? I’m stumped and that is where I try to be as supportive but not overprotective as I can be. It is very difficult, as I question myself every time I think about it. “What is shy thinking? Why is she doing this? What nonsense is this guy doing?” Maybe she’s over it faster than expected… maybe she’s made her amends. Maybe I’m the one who is still lingering. Maybe I am just jealous because my relationship with my ex did not turn out the way I would like it to be and my sister’s did? Regardless of what the reason, I should find the reason to not feel this way.

I’m happy she trusts him, I’m not happy she made those decisions. I’m happy she’s happy, that’s really all that matter in the end. For her, I should be supportive and when she needs a support to lean on, I’ll take it. I’ll support her. I’ll do it until she doesn’t need my support.

I’ll do the same with Chelsea, and I’ll do the same with any friends who needs it and ask for it.

Dealing with this frustration wasn’t easy. Can’t say it is, but having faith in my sister is good enough of an answer for me. I always hear people say, “I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt.” I guess on the shallow side, that’s what I’m doing. It really is just trusting someone until that trust is broken. For a sister, why shouldn’t I trust her no matter what happens?

Well, time to settle things for myself. Maybe a few punches to the face will do.

*BAM! POW! PUNCH!* Take that jealousy. Now how does it feel to be all beaten up.

Well, guess nothing a good meal wouldn’t cure.

That’s it, nothing more, go read someone elses’ entries.
