Chinese New Year Advice Never go into Chinatown the weekend before Chinese New Year unless you have no other choice. I had to walk from one end to the other and back, TWICE!!! Man, people just walk right into you like nothing! And those old ladies can get to what they want, no matter who’s…

Woohoo! Everything is up and running again (except sound) thanks to the computer wizardry of my friend Gordon. I was telling him it’s amazing that I got this page running since I’m so computer illiterate. I hate computers and and it seems like computers hate me. I continue to marvel at the wonders of technology.…

Boo, I have no internet access at home now. I tried installing a newer version of windows and now it’s not compatible with the software for my modem. New software is on it’s way. I was driving across the bridge today and saw this huge military aircraft fly overhead. I watched it as it flew,…

I haven’t posted in a while, or been online either, for that matter. There is something that is weighing on my heart, but I don’t know what it is. People ask me all sorts of questions and I usually answer most of them with ease. That is, I did until a few nights ago when…

Costco Etiquette So I was shopping at Costco today, one of those warehouse membership stores, and they have these booths where people hand out free samples. I go up to one (only one today, ok!) and, being the polite person that I am, asked if I could take one. The guy said, “Of course!” like…

I was watching this show on MTV called “Flipped.” They take people and put them in scenarios representing consequences that might happen as a result of their lifestyle or actions. It’s a pretty good show. For example, today, they had 2 people on, a girl and a guy, who had a history of being promiscuous…

Did you know that if you miss a day of work, you’re actually helping people keep their jobs? And it is considered rude to decline your employer’s generous offer of sick days. It’s all in the Hooky Book.

Ok, since I’ve had a little time to recover, I figured I’d finally write about my weekend. Warning: the following post is not for the faint-hearted. Friday: People from my fellowship group came over and we had a taco night. Bad season for tacos because lettuce and tomatoes are extremely expensive at the grocery stores.…

Have a look, I finally finished another one of C.S. Lewis’ books. It’s been a long time since I first picked up the book. Minor distractions in life, such as school, always seem to keep me from what I like to do. Lewis is a great writer. As I was reading his book, I could…

Check out today’s cartoon from my favorite comic strip. I feel like the girl in the red shirt. Boo… Free play day today and received yet another student discount with my ID. I think the title of this site should be “How to make use of your college ID.” Went to the SFMOMA and checked…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! With a new year, comes new resolutions. I never was really into making resolutions for myself. Shouldn’t we change ourselves to be better people no matter the time of year? Maybe this is the time of year when people evaluate their lives. It’s a bit sad that they don’t do that during…

Did you know that in China, people get the day after the holiday off from work, not the holiday itself? That’s pretty smart, because you get to recover from the festivities. I just went to go exchange a set of snow chains. I told the lady that I had bought the chains a while back,…

Merry Christmas!!! I just got back from the candlelight service and cable car caroling (or more like cable car yelling). We drove around the city yelling Merry Christmas to people. I haven’t had that much fun in a while, seeing that all I’ve been doing is writing papers. We looked like a bunch of drunkards.…

Where in the world is Osama Bin Laden? I can’t wait until I’m finished with the papers. Mucho thanks to Raymond for attempting to solve my cgi problems and trying to get the comments to work, even though the solution has yet to be discovered. I spent way too much time on that when I…

Another day of work. There is no such thing as relaxing during the weekend as a student. I love the following quote: There are only 2 kinds of people in the world – those who wake up in the morning and say, “Good morning, Lord,” and those who wake up in the morning and say,…

I was stuck in the rat race of commuters today, attempting to drive home on the freeways when I decided to take the side streets to get on the bridge. In the lane next to mine, was one car, and in front of me, was a pickup truck with a cab top. The light was…
