Can you guess who won?


Ever saw that ESPN ad that shows a guy wearing Ohio St t-shirt and a girl wearing Michigan t-shirt kissing on the couch, and the caption says: "If it wasn't for sports, this wouldn't be disgusting" ?

Well, that's the first thing that came into my mind looking at this picture :)

And no, she's not my GF, nor that I'm interested in her, so don't start any gossip ok? :P

College football season is over....
-sigh-

tiga hal..

...yg blom bisa gue give up..kalo harus pulang indo....

1. football (ada masalah? :p)
mau bilang apa lagi? baru disini gue bisa support team yg ada attachment nya... bukan seperti support Man U, Arsenal, Real Madrid dll dll... disini ada Purdue football... sama Indy Colts.. gue bakal keilangan semuanya... gak bisa maen flag football.. gak bisa ntn (replays doesn't count) keilangan suasana stadium jg... akhir2 ini gue lg demen baca buku2 football jg.... seperti 'Friday Night Lights', 'The Blind Side', sama 'Quiet Strengh by Tony Dungy'.. all good books... so sports play a big part of my life... playing football is like going to a battle... part of the fun comes from the preparation... (bersambung di bawah ya..)

2. nyetir
gak males apa kemana mana macet... pengendara nya jg gak tau aturan semua..... gak punya otak... udah macet bukan nya benrenti malah maju kedepan.... sama kenceng2 an klakson (bantu ya?) polisi nya BANGSAT semua.... gue lebih rela bayar Rp. 175,500 ke pengadilan daripada nyogok polisi Rp. 50,000. pengalaman pribadi...gue pernah ktangkep polisi gara2 3 in 1... trus gue ngotot2 an... kena Rp. 20,000 doang... pas gue cerita ke bokap ato temen2 gue... pada kaget.. soalnya biasa 3 in 1 mahal... bisa sampe Rp. 100,000.... waktu itu gue nantang polisinya.... 'udah, sini saya ambil tiket nya aja... bayar ke pengadilan' terus dia minta gue bayar di tempat.... gmana??? jelas2 di tiket nya dibilang bayar ke pengadilan... akhir dengan malu2 bangsat mau jg dia terima Rp. 20,000.. bagus ya pak polisi... selamet deh... seumur hidup ntar gitu2 aja ya pak???

3. internet
yah.. ini juga.. tapi mayan sih.. kmaren ini temen gue bilang dari Rp. 100,000 an udah bisa dapet unlimited bandwidth.. gak ngerti deh speed nya brapa cepet.... gue taro ini di no 3, soalnya sepertinya udah mule membaik.. dulu kan dibatesin... plg sebulan 1 giga... gile... dikit yaa...

(sambungan)
di flag football team gue... beberapa cw bule... ada satu cw, namanya Angelica.. dia lulusan ASU... and the interesting part is that... she can actually play!!! dia bisa ngelempar spiral... ngerti taktik (jadi quarterback beberapa kali) and she can actually catch long pass!! mayan manis jg lagi.. hehe.. gak cuakep buanget gitu... tapi enak diliat.. hehe.... bisa diajak ntn football jg.. soalnya abis itu kita ke bar rame2 buat ntn Colts - Patriots... and she was actually rooting for the Pats... bukan gara2 suka.. tapi gara2 Colts ngalahin Bears di superbowl kmarin... (she's a Chicago native) one conv...

Nick: 'So Angelica, do you support the Patriots because Brady's cute?'
Angelica: 'No, I support them because Colts beat us last year'
Chris: 'I'm actually surprised that you think Tom Brady's cute, Nick'
Nick: -senyum2 mesem.. balik ntn lagi-

uehuhe...

ada satu lg yg buat gue kagum... kan kita ngobrol2 gt sebelon game.... ati2 kalo narik flag nya.. jgn sampe ketarik celana nya.... terus satu orang bilang dgn nada becanda 'Relax guys, It's not like something we haven't seen before... we're all adults here' terus temen gue Nick bilang: 'Not me, I'm Mormon...' terus si Angelica bilang: 'I haven't either...' hmm... pretty unusual for Americans huh? considering she's pretty cute...

apa lagi...

kmren ini gue ke LA buat beresin barang2 gue.... akhirnya bisa nyetir mobil gue lagi setelah selama ini.... I can't believe how I missed my car... langsung gue tarik di highway sama dengerin stereo gue... gue seneng sama audio mobil gue.. soalnya meskipun gak di modif apa2 (cman pasang cd changer standard aja) suaranya bening bgt... temen gue yg hobi ngutak2 stereo mobil aja ngakuin... gue blom pernah ketemu suara mobil laen yg sebening mobil gue... ada sih... cman dia ganti speaker yg muahalll.... gak diitung dong.. :s

pas nyetir balik dari Carmax.... gue mikir 'I can't believe it.. this might be the last time I'm driving my car....' yak sodara2... saya planning buat ngejual mobil itu.... blom ketemu pembeli.. moga2 sih bisa dalam waktu dekat...

my future?
still uncertain... i don't feel like talking about it at the moment...

on the brighter side... gue dapet kamera gua balik!!! so expect some photos on my upcoming posts...

!@#$%^&*6*&^%$#@!@#$%^&*

sedikit cerita

pengen cerita sedikit nih. eh, bukan cerita sih, apa yah? gue tulis dulu deh ya, nanti bisa di interpretasi sendiri.

ceritanya begini: tadi kan baru ngobrol2 ditelpon gitu.. sama salah satu temen gue yang jenis kelamin nya masih dipertanyakan.. (hehe enggak deng.. moga2 dia gak baca =p), trus dia bilang:

temen gue: 'kenapa elu gak sama si $ aja, kan dia masih single tuh?'
gue: 'ehm.. enggak ah, kok gak kepengen yah.. gak tertarik'
temen gue: 'yeh elo.. gmana kalo sama rumet gue ajah... dia jg masih single tuh...'
gue: 'males....'
temen gue: 'yeh elo.. gmana coba.. ya udah sana... milih2 bgt deh ya..'
gue: 'yeee.... abis....??'

huehee.. masa gak boleh gitu milih2? daripada gue ngasal doang gt... tapi kayanya pilihan disini terbatas banget yah... si kari bilang.. 'udah.. pulang indo aja, disini perbandingan co:ce itu 1:3, jadi lo pasti dapet deh... banyak yg cantik2 pula... tinggal pilih deh... apalagi lo ada degree dari amrik.. master lagi.. pasti banyak yg kepincut' buset... kok ada2 yg ganjil yah kayanya.. heuheuhee... (bukannya gue nolak lohhhh!!!!!! ^^)

tapi beneran deh... apa sih yg pertama kali lo liat kalo lagi ngedeketin (ato dideketin?) seseorang? serius deh.. jujur yah?? kalo buat gue.. terus terang.. gue bakal liat gmana penampilan dia... asal gak ngasal2 banget... dan gak terlalu berlebihan.. harusnya udah cukup... terus gue bakal liat gmana cara dia ngomong.. cara dia jalan.... cara dia makan... cara dia buka baju...(??????) hueheuhee... gak dengggggg..... :p maksudnya yah penampilan2 dasar nya gmana lah gitu.. terus coba diajak ngomong dikit2.. kira2 ada respons gak... kalo gak ada respons.. nah itu kan ada dua macem...

1. dianya ngelengos aja... ato jawab nya sepotong2 gitu..
'kamu udah makan blom?'
'blom'
'ehm.. kamu capek yah?'
'gak kok'
'kamu udah pernah disambit sendal?'
'HAH' <--- masih pendek aja jawab nya.. kalo udah begini berarti gak ada keliatan tertarik2 nya sama sekali.... tentu saja ini tanda2 tidak baik... kalo udah gini ya mau gimana..? jangan dipaksa.. yah teman2 yang namanya manusia itu tidak suka dipaksa....

2. orang nya emang tipe2 yg pemalu... jadinya gak ngerti mesti respons apa... kalo udah gini ya mesti pinter2 kali yah.. tapi terus terang buat gue kalo gini udah mines banget... biasanya sih ya udah didiemin aja... kalo2 emang nantinya berubah ya bagus.. kalo nggak ya udah.... sapa tau dia tipe yg emang diem2 aja kalo pertama kali baru ketemu.. jaim2 gitu... tapi bawel setengah mampus kalo udah lama kenal... heuheuhe.. pasti banyak yg mikir deh.... 'apa sih lo, masi jomblo aja, kok sok tau bener?!?!?!?!?!? kalo ttg masalah ini... gue salahin salah satu temen gue ber-inisial 'E' karena waktu itu pernah nyumpahin gue biar SERET JODOH!!!!!! gilee... gak kurang kejam tuh? huhuhuhuh..... hmm.. moga2 dia becanda aja deh yah... soalnya kalo gak, well... then I'm in big big trouble, I suppose.... heiheiheiheiheie.... ---> ktawa stress..

btw ada yg tau iklan nya ipod yg baru itu... sapa sih yg nyanyi?? kok lucu yah suaranya....

egh.. gue jd keinget obrolan gue sama si renny... udah lama bgt sih.. tapi tiap kali kepikiran.. pengen ketawa terus bawaan nya.... cerita nya gini.. gue lg telponan sama dia.... trus..

renny: 'duh.. hp gue mana yah.. mesti setel alarm neh....'
gue : 'uhmm...'
renny: 'iya neh.. duh mana.... bentar yah jeng... gawat nih besok bisa gak bangun...'
gue : 'eh ren.. ini lo telpon gue pake apa yah..?'

-hening sejenak-

renny: 'OH IYAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
gue : '??????????'

hauhauhauha..... dah basi yah? maap deh... lagi kepikiran aja.... :p
slamat malam semua... have a good monday!!

apa yah...

halo halo... apa kabar semua?
dah lama bgt yah gak nulis apa2.. sampe lupa gitu loh login nya gmana.. hehe.. kmaren barusan baca lagi bukunya kambingjantan.. terus jd kepikiran buat nulis lg.. ada banyak kejadian menarik akhir2 ini... dari yg lucu sampe yg sedih..

kerjaan oh kerjaan ???
cman sekarang ini jd kepikiran... kalo kayanya gue gak ada option laen selaen tinggal disini... weits.. hehe... iya nih, opt gue abis akhir januari.. maksud gue tuh.. meskipun gitu, gue gak bakal consider alternative laen.. kmaren sempet mikir2 buat ke spore kan.. tapi trus dipikir2 lagi kok males.. males suasana asia.. trus udah mayan banyak kayanya anak2 purdue yg disana.. ntar ketemu dia lagi.. dia lagi.. males dong.. mana orang2 spore banyak yg kiasu lagi...

option kedua.. ke aussie.. ini yg kmaren bener2 sempet gue consider banget.. tapi setelah dpikir2 lagi.. orang2 down under sana tuh banyak yg rasis... kayanya mereka gak se open minded orang2 di sini... gak percaya? gue pernah ampir brantem sama orang bule di nz gara2 masalah ini... terus tanya ada dd gue ttg pengalaman dia..

indo? haha... hmm.. gak deh yg ini... yg pasti sih gak sekarang... blom punya apa2.. dan yg pasti gue bakal bergantung sama bonyok lagi kalo pulang indo..

gak ah.. gue udah putusin kalo gue bakal stay disini.. no matter what... doain yah guys..

loh kok jd depressing ya isinya haha.. apa gara2 ari ini hectic bgt yah... panik nih.. kmaren baru balik dari grand prairie, tx.. trus besok udah mesti cabut... ke salinas, ca.. flight nya jem 6 pagi gitu yah.. bayangin aja..

purdue has changed.. the people too..
jadi gak mood balik purdue lagi.. kmaren terakhir balik bener2 pengalaman yg tidak terlalu menyenangkan... intinya: buang2 duit buat bensin sajah... mgkn ntar gue balik kalo ada tiket football aja kali.. tapi itu ya paling dateng.. nonton.. trus balik lagi... pengen suasana baru nih.. kebanyakan gaul sama orang indo terus ga berkembang jadinya... jd inget asik tuh kmaren di dallas...

sekarang jd lebih tertarik buat road trip muter2 in stadium... nih udah janjian sama ni anak dari madison buat ntn di camp randall..., gue sih ayok2 aja... terus ada temen gue di michigan mungkin bakal jual tiket purdue - michigan... big house!!!!! huhuhu... udah lama pengen ngerasain...

football
sekarang ampir tiap minggu maen flag/touch nih.. sama sapa? bukan sama orang2 indo tentunya.... intinya jadi gue cari2 di craigslist bagian 'activities' terus ya udah gue email2 in aja tuh orang.... pas awal2 nyari dapet liga yg radaan serius.. setengah flag setengah tackle... minggu kedua maen dagu gue robek... satu senti setengah ada kali tuh... seharian darah gue ngocor.. orang2 bilang suruh gue jait, tapi berhubung gue gak ada insurance.. didiemin aja deh... 2-3 ari ditempel tensoplas... sembuh tuh.. ada kaya scar gitu seh, tapi gak terlalu peduli.. tapi berhubung mesti commit tiap minggu, dan gue ada kemungkinan buat travel2, jadinya gue gak ikutan... mesti bayar pula..

pas nyari2 lagi... ketemu ada temen nya temen ternyata suka maen di monroe... jadinya ikutan deh.. yg ini baru asik hehe... mereka maen 2 minggu sekali.. jadinya mayan lah.. sayang nya penggemar bears semua... pas gue bilang 'bears sucks'.. pada diem semua.. jd ackward gitu.. hahahaha... oh well...

yg satu lagi ketemu bule semua.. ada kaya 6-7 orangan gitu... mayan lah seru lari2 an gitu.. yg lucu pas ketemu gue mereka tanya: 'do you speak mandarin or schezuan?' kan gue bengong... terus baru dia ngeh... 'oh that's right... schzuan is some kind of a food' hauhauhauhauhauha... dasar bugil (bule gila) ya gue jawab ' i don't speak both, and szhcuan is actually a name of a province' hihihihihihi... (bener gak si? kalo salah dimaapin yee..)

ya udah... maap maap kalo radan gak bermutu post nya ^^

Hey There Delilah....



lagu favorit gue saat ini... pengen maenin lagunya.... tapi gak ada gitarnya... which is making it even harder..... :(

Sunday, June 10, 2007

-intermezzo-



makasih ya semua.. yang udah ninggalin comments buat post gue dibawah ini.. gue gak kenapa2 kok.. berita2 yang kalian baca di comments2 nya ada yg bener.. ada yg ngawur jg.. hehe.. di kira2 aja ya?

banyak kejadian2 menarik yg terjadi dalam hidup gue akhir2 ini... banyak belajar tentang pribadi2 manusia..

sebenernya banyak bgt yg bisa gue ceritain.. tapi gak tau kenapa gue skarang jadi gak terlalu comfortable buat share beberapa hal yg biasa nya gue comfortable buat cerita (di post2 yg dulu)

jd alesan kmaren gue berenti nulis ya sebenernya itu.. karena gue udah gak bisa terlalu comfortable buat nulis... people changed right? itu jg yg gue rasakan akhir2 ini... perubahan..

berubah seperti apa jg sebenernya gak jelas... yg pasti gue ngerasa ada sesuatu yg beda dari diri gue.. entah dalam hal positif ato negatif..

btw video yg diatas... enggak kenapa2 sih.. gak nyangka aja masih bisa nemuin video jaman jebot gitu di youtube... fyi, ini lagu pertama yg gue belajarin pas belajar maen gitar... gue jg inget pas ambil nilai musik kelas 3 smp, gue nyanyi ini pake gitar di depan kelas... dan dapet delapan... the only delapan i ever got for music during my smp years.. hehe... :P

it would be nice to get someone to play this song for my wedding, no? (much much much later in life...)

thanks for reading guys..

is this it?

USCIS has received enough H-1B petitions requesting exemptions from the fiscal year 2008 H-1B cap for "foreign workers who have earned a master's degree or higher" to meet the congressionally mandated exemption limit of 20,000. USCIS has determined that the "final receipt date" for these exempt petitions is April 30, 2007.

I officially don't know what I should do from now on... any help, advice is appreciated...

+gila+

kau buat aku gila
kau buat aku merasa hina
kau buat aku bosan
kau buat aku merasa muak

melihatmu
mendengarmu
dan semua tingkah lakumu kepadaku

kau buat aku benci
kau juga hapus semua napsuku
kau buat aku *****
kau buat hidup terasa mati

melihatmu
mendengarmu
dan semua tingkah lakumu kepadamu

dan pergi
tinggalkan aku
jauhi diriku

pergi tinggalkan aku
jauhi diriku

tak dapat menahan sikapmu
kau buatku jadi smakin gila

pergi tinggalkan aku
jauhi diriku

pergi tinggalkan aku
jauhi diriku

tanpa judul

udah lama gak post ya...

sampe banyak yg nagih.. haha.. bukan nya gmana2... tapi kan ini blog harusnya buat foto2.. tapi berhubung beberapa bulan kebelakang ini fokus gue gak bisa jaoh2 dari kerjaan.. jadinya blon sempet pegang kamera lagi...

tapi entah kenapa hari ini gue ngerasa tenang sekali.. padahal pagi hari udah dimulai dengan acara telat bangun segala.. gak enak deh ma evo.. padahal dia pagi banget ke kantor.. (buat yg blom tau.. gue skarang kerja temp di tempat pacarnya stacy.. sebagai data entry sajah)

tapi terus siang2 gitu ada orang telp.. mo ph interview hari senen.. ya lumayan lah... sore2 orang dari job agency jg ada sedikit kabar baik... moga2 minggu depan bisa terjadi sesuatu... terus pas udah mo pulang diajak ngobrol sama bos... intinya gue lg diusahaain buat dapet permanent position di company nya...

terussss... si evo ngasih gue 2 tiket ntn Lakers vs Portland.. haha.. setelah nanya ryan alfons dan wk.. semua sibuk dengan pekerjaan ato pacar... jadilah saya pergi sama salah satu anak basket nya mudika... si evo ngepick random gitu... telpon2 in aja sapa yg bisa.. heuheuhe... ya udah deh.. terus jdnya gak jd pulang.. tapi langsung cabut ke staples di downtown LA..

seru bgt gamenya.. sampe overtime segala... bener2 puas.. apalagi abis itu denger kalo Purdue lolos 1st round NCAA tourney.... (meskipun 2nd round langsung ketemu Florida... bubar sudah... :s)

jadi intinya.. hari ini baru pertama kalinya ngerasain perasaan tenang sejak sampe di LA tepat 2 minggu lalu... gak pengen bobo dulu.. masi pengen ber santai2 en ngeplan buat besok2...

masi blon kesampean ke beach ni.. pengen moto sunset... masih banyak waktu lah ya..

terus terang aja... sampe skarang masih blon bisa 100% yakin kalo ini bener2 keputusan yg tepat (buat pindah ke LA) tapi... gue udah blajar untuk berserah... gue udah cukup bersyukur dikasih temen2 yg selalu ngedukung gue... sampe skarnag blon 1 pun gue denger komentar negatif ttg keputusan gue ini... thanks guys.. you know who you are...

weekend.. dinikmati dulu ah.. nanti minggu baru pusing2 lagi... waktu terus berjalan.. tick tock tick tock...

lagi kangen juga sama seseorang... tapi sekali lg gue tekankan... nggak kok... bukan dia... percaya deh... bukan banget... tapi jgn mule gossip jg.. karena boleh percaya kalo itu bukan gebetan gue... hehe.. kalo misalkan sampe di masa depan terbukti emang gbtan gue... ntar gue makan sendal jepit gue :p gak tau tapi.... kangen ajah..... huhuhu... gi ngapain yah dia....

oh iya... ~vodka punya blog baru... blog barunya dia bener2 keren sekarang... so do drop by and tell her that I sent you :p

klik di -sini- buat link nya....

apa lagi?
oh iya.. gue baru tau kalo si Elka sama temen nya (Manda? kita blom kenalan ya? met kenal deh ya heuheuhe) demen maen Elite Beat Agents jg.... gue waktu itu mo bikin post buat justify kenapa Elite Beat Agents deserve buat jadi game of the year... tapi gak yakin kalo ada yg peduli ^^ gue suka banget sama game ini.. kenapa? soalnya pas lo lg suntuk ato stress... tinggal nyalain Nintendo DS nya.. maen satu ato dua lagu.... -poof- hilang sudah ke stress/suntuk an nya.. lagu fave gue september - earth wind and fire (A) sama ymca - village people (S) =p level bintang satu udah tamat... level bintang dua udah unlock level alien nya.. tapi blom sempet dimaenin... hehe...

selasa depan mo maen basket sama orang2 kantor... wah.. akhirnya setelah ber minggu2 bisa gerak badan jg....

ya sudah ah.. segini dulu.. nanti kalo ada yg menarik saya sambung lagi :)

take care everyone...

Colts vs Bears - The Battle of I-65!

Let the battle begin. I just realized that this game is not just another Superbowl. Indianapolis and Chicago is only separated by about three hours drive, so fans from both sides of the team are mixed in both states.

I have been waiting for Indianapolis Colts to go into the Superbowl since I've been supporting them. And now they have to face Chicago Bears to win it all!!!

This is big. Really really big.

Wow.

I really don't want Feb 4th to come very soon, because all the excitement would be over, and there would be no football until September. I'm loving this. Everywhere I go it's either Colts or Bears. They even talk about that in church! St Thomas won't be having the 9PM masses next week due to the game.

So please Colts. Don't disappoint us. Beat Bears, and bring pride to Indianapolis! That would be a sweet present to me, since who knows where I'm gonna live in the next couple of weeks.

Hehe. Doesn't make a lot of sense does it?

The excitement has finally catched to me. Oh yes it has. It's gonna be intense this upcoming Sunday. Maybe now I can dream for Purdue to go into the National Championship?

Or not. Whatever.

GO COLTS!

So the Colts managed their way to the SuperBowl....

.... tapi kok rasanya biasa aja ya

Biasanya pasti gue excited berat... bahkan tadi gak ntn game nya sampe abis.. gara2 ke gereja sih.. tapi biasanya pasti gue bela2 in ke gereja sabtu sore ato minggu pagi biar bisa ntn...

terus ngeliatin nick name msn orang2... yg biasanya gak peduli sama football aja sampe pada excited gituh.. tapi.. kok gue biasa aja ya?

jujur sih.. gue seneng... tapi kok terasa ganjil aja... harusnya gue jaoh lebih seneng dari ini.. grr what is happening to me? I mean.. it's the Colts... our own Indianapolis Colts! kapan lagi coba... jarang2 Colts bisa menang playoff games... apalagi ke superbowl..

apalagi tadi.. pas gue tinggal ke gereja, Colts ngejer dari ketinggalan 21-3 jadi akhrinya menang 38-34! it's the biggest comeback ever in playoff history! But I again, I FEEL NOTHING! biasanya pasti gue bakal nyesel berat gara2 gak ntn sampe abis....

and don't give me those you-watched-too-much-football-already crap... it's NEVER enough!
no.. it's something else.....

Hatiku... beku?
maaf... keluhan di malam yg sepi...

It is...

...sometime past three am, and I can't sleep. Well, it's not that I can't sleep. I just don't feel like sleeping. So I'll just list some random stuff that occurred to my mind...

1. it is very hard to love someone unconditionally. It is almost impossible to say 'well, as long as he/she's happy, I'm fine. I don't need anything in return' Really. It's virtually impossible. For me, at least. And for those of you that think this is about 'her', believe me, it's not.

2. there must this special hormone working when you get up in the morning. I often experience this 'special' feeling whenever I wake up in the morning. I sometimes wake up in the morning feeling so sad, that there are tears running down my face (with unknown reason). Or maybe you can just wake up smiling and feel dumb because you don't know why. The first more than the latter.

3. Uncertainties result in pain. There are so many options to choose, yet you always unsure that you follow the best one.

4. I finally found my 'weaknesses' to tell interviewers.
- Impatient: I hate waiting. Period.
- Over Analyzing: Taking down problems day by day just doesn't cut it for me.
- Impulsive: I wouldn't brag too much of this too my interviewers though. Let's just keep this between us :)


5. Some people are just afraid to say 'no' (for variety of reasons). I've learned so much this past few months that some people are actually afraid to get out of their comfort zone, to hurt other people's feeling because their inability to say no. As always, my over analyzing habit didn't make it any easier as well.

6. It is actually very hard to know what exactly going through your mind. So many expectations, considerations, analysis that pretty much shield the true intention of your mind. When this happen, you can just go back and forth what you're thinking, just to discover that the result is just virtually impossible to comprehend. Confused? So am I.

7. Ah. The lucky number 7. Well guess what, my lucky number is 21, which is 3 x 7. What does it mean? Nothing, because I don't really believe in luck. 21 is actually my favorite number because of some certain reasons. People tell me that getting a job is all about luck. Bunch of nonsense. Randomness in the universe is what causing employment to be correlated with luck. Let's face it, the world isn't linear. There are no equations in the world that can describe EXACTLY the true activities of nature. People use equations not because they exist, but to provide an explanation to CERTAIN activity. Why is -ve x -ve = +ve? Because it works. So for those people that believe getting a job is all about luck, I feel really sorry for you.

8. It seems that aside from people getting married at 7/7/07, a lot more will get married at 8/8/08. The number 8 character (ba? pa?) is the same as the character for 'wealth' (feel free to correct). So? what are you waiting for? Start planning for your wedding! Actually, for all those of who haven't thought about getting married (yet), you have time until 12/12/12. Why? I don't really think many people will find the date 13/13/13 on their calendar.

9. My bed really kills me. It is by far the most inconvenient bed I've ever sleep on. Maybe that's one of the reason I don't feel like sleeping even though I'm sleepy.

10. For some reason it's just very hard for me to have a close friend on a long term basis. I don't know why, but it sure like a good idea to restrict my relationship with my friends. On the risk of being called sad, it's just very hard for me to fully share my thoughts with someone. It's been a while since I can really open up to a person. Time change... People change... and some thoughts just won't go away... I guess..

I think it's getting to personal, so I'll stop here.

A glimpse of the new year..

#1
The table has shifted. Nintendo wiis are virtually impossible to found across the country. PS3s are everywhere, as nobody want them anymore. Scalpers try to return their purchase after eBay prices dropped below retail. This conclude that people buy wii to play it, but they buy ps3 only to sell it. Those people who bought $3000 ps3 after launch must feel like an idiot now. The battle continues and personally I'm very excited. Will Nintendo win the market share this gen? Will Blue Ray become the next Betamax (the reason that Betamax fail to succeed was because they don't allow porn industries to produce in their format... yeah right) Will Microsoft succeed in Japan? Will people grow tired of the new playing scheme introduced by Nintendo after some years? months? Will ps3 ever live up to their hype? Will 360's 1 year head start make a difference in the long run?

Stay tuned.

#2
Ian Johnson just proposed to his girlfriend (fiancee?) last night. Got that? Now that I have your attention, non-football fans, I'll tell you how last night's game was more than just a game. Boise St was 12-0 for the season, so by logic they should play in the national championship against the only other unbeaten team in the country (Ohio St, also 12-0).

But they didn't. Since they came from a WAC, a 'weak' conference, they had to settle their business in the Fiesta Bowl against the Oklahoma Sooners (which aren't very good in my opinion). The Broncos (Boise St's nickname) led early until midway of 3rd quarter. Then to sum it up, they blew their lead and Oklahoma managed to catch on to force the game into overtime. Oklahoma even lead by 7 points with 1:08 minutes left in the game, but The Broncos refused to give up. Their last play,hook and ladder trick play finally tied the game and forces it into overtime.

Bored? Hang on on with me. During the overtime, it seems that they want to settle the game once and for all. Rather than kicking the extra point for 1, they elected to go for 2 which will win the game. Of course, they would lose the game if they failed. This is bar none the most exciting moment so far this season. They ran the statue of liberty play, which the QB faked a pass to the receivers, and handed the ball over to the running back.

THEY WON THE GAME BY 1 POINT!

One of the commentators said 'It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog' That strucked me real deep. The Boise St might still lose if the play Ohio St, but they sure knows how to provide a high quality entertainment. Kudos to you Broncos nation!

Now this is the interesting part. Running back Ian Johnson proposed to his girlfriend, the head cheerleader for the Broncos, after the game during his interview on national television! And she said yes! Wisconsin beat Arkansas with an impressive performance, Penn St upset the ranked Tennessee, USC beat Michigan in the Rose Bowl, but the highlight of the new year belong to the underdog Boise St Broncos!
