So I drove down to LA Sunday, and I’m getting ready to head back up tomorrow. Wow, I’ve been really busy. Haven’t even had a chance to finish everything I needed to do…
Monday: Moved my stuff from where little pricks stole my stuff, to a slightly less open storage.
Tuesday: Slacked off.
Wednesday: Tried to visit my cousins, but they weren’t around. So I chatted with my uncle for a bit.
Thursday: I can’t remember, but I was busy.
Friday: Helped interpret for my mom, and it took 3 hours. Then, I went for some lunch, followed by some sleep, followed by dinner, and then I ended up working to update my 張學友歌原Tracker and even added a music video of a song I have yet to find the lyrics for. Yeah, not the most lively week, but it was full of being busy. Can’t wait to head back north.
28Feb-5Mar Week Recap
March 5th, 2010If Only I Was There
February 23rd, 2010Today, I skipped most of my classes. Why? Because last night, I had a couple of beers, and this morning woke up feeling a bit sluggish. Not hung over. No, that shit sucks. Sluggish (hung over, but without the terrible stomach pains, headaches, and dehydration). But there was one class I decided to go to, because it didn’t start until 6pm. I could make that class without a problem!
Actually, there is one problem I’ve always had with school: homework. I hate it. it doesn’t do anything for you. Either you know the subject or you don’t. For the particular assignment that was given to us, I honestly didn’t know how to answer it. After the class was over, the instructor asked us to give him the assignment. I told him I couldn’t produce anything for him. So he accuses me for not having attended the last session. What the fuck?
Dropping all my classes sounds very tempting at this point…
Got Jacked?
February 21st, 2010I did. This is the 4th time so far. My mom thinks our neighbors stole my stuff. But we don’t have any proof. For all I know, it could’ve been anyone. Why my stuff specifically? It could even be my sister. The list of suspects could go on…
Sometimes, this makes me think I should buy a boat, put my things on there, and then just live in isolation, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Then again, if that were the case, Somali Pirates would just come and steal my stuff instead –yes, all the way in the Pacific.
So you can’t run from thieves. They’ll find you eventually.
Civilians…
February 16th, 2010… they tend to get on my nerves. At least my friends, that is… They just happen to be civilians.
Every time I used to talk to them while I was still in the Navy, they would say shit like, “It’s different! When you get a real job in the civilian world, you’ll know!”
Fuck you! If anyone’s been through any corporate lifestyle firsthand and in the frontlines, it’s anyone that’s in the service! Anyone that complains about the military being a major source of government’s wasteful spending can go shove it. Does the government waste money? Of course! Now let’s put the cameras back on the private sector: Does a corporation in the private sector waste money? [That was a rhetorical question, for some of you out there.] There’s this damn illusion of the “efficiency” of the free market and the private sector. This is part of an even bigger misconception that the public and private sector are somehow different.
Here’s the bottomline: They both provide jobs. Both of them are systems that generate some type of profit. The only thing that differs is the culture of the corporation. Ever notice how two companies merge, and then end up splitting up years later? Culture shock.
Back to that phrase I keep hearing from my friends though… They make it sound as if I’ve never worked a civilian job before. I have, and it sucks. They make it seem as if I don’t know what a “real” job is because I worked in the Navy for 6 years. Fuck them and their condescending ways. I’m not much of a patriot, and may be an Atheist, but damnit! I’ve done more than my fair share “for God and country” than these fuckers have.
Homework
February 16th, 2010Never been a fan. Never will be a fan. It’s just sad that I actually have to do this in college. What the fuck ever happened to just a midterm and a final?
And while I’m at it, participation credits are dumb too!
“No, David! College isn’t like high school! It’s the next level!” the other students told me. Damn, I proved them wrong.
擒晚: 情人節,年初一
February 15th, 2010擒晚去睇黃子華嘅“嘩眾取笑“棟篤笑之前,我喺Grace Cathedral 教堂裡面寫——以下呢句:
“情人節,年初一。冇情人。希望唔會有下次。”
Bad Moments for a Phone Call
February 8th, 2010So, as I’m about done with taking a crap, I get a phone call. SHIT! It’s been about 4 rings! I gotta’ get this call before whoever it is hangs up! So, while these winter pants are still hanging around my ankles, I’m still trying to race towards the phone in my bedroom. As a result, I’m somewhat waddling around with these pants tieing my feet together, tangling up my boxers
Hey, at least I answered the call!
Superbowl 2010
February 8th, 2010I’m not much of a football fan, but I’ll watch a game or two if it’s on. Unlike most sports fans, I don’t invest any time or emotion towards any team whatsoever. I was very surprised at how smooth and quick the game went. The thing I was most interested in though, were the Super Bowl ads. Not a whole lot of entertaining ads, but here are some of my favorites (Not in any particular order):
After seeing those commercials, it makes you wanna’ get some Doritos. But then, after seeing this…
A Snickers sounds like a much better idea.
What Scholarships?
February 6th, 2010I haven’t seen any. Heck, every semester, I’ve had to pay out of my own damn pocket –despite being unemployed for over a year. The laughable one is the minority scholarship. Not because they’re for minorities, but then you have to major in some minority studies of some sort, or some other random major. So much for my degree in World Languages! (Heck, so much for being a minority with financial hardships. I suppose that’s another scholarship.)
I guess I can’t blame them, because it would be too long to call it “The scholarship for minorities, only if you’re majoring in these following subjects….”
I’ve found that most of these scholarships just take your information, and then sell it off to some other guy. Fuck this crap.
Better try for FAFSA again, and hope my paperwork doesn’t get lost this time.
Thank you Readers.
February 4th, 2010I noticed today that there is much more traffic to my website today. To be honest, there’s so much, that it resembles another viewership phenomenon. Yeah, that’s right. I’ve got another attack on my site. To those honest readers of my blog, or those who like what they’ve stumbled upon, thank you. I just wish there was more interesting stuff going on with my life lately, that you could read about. Hopefully in the future, good things will come.
For all you other people, well… You know how much you suck.
