  • I just make a brief comment on how proud I am of myself. So in high school everything was simple, I swam and I studied. I graduated with a 3.9 gpa, junior Olympic champion, state record holder, high school MVP/Captain, and US All American. Not bad but everything was straightforward. I was away from the drug and drinking scene, in fact didn't know anything and then college hits me. I was so shocked by the drinking, drugs, sex/violence involved. Why am I saying this now? Cause all my house mates are high right now, J and R drank like 6 packs and on cigars/cigarettes, M just had like 10,000 cigs and look like a mushroom haha. They look and act completely fucking ridiculous. Despite this harsh environment, I have not gone with the herd-man mentality yet, something almost all of my friends have fallen into. That's why I am so proud of myself. Go me!!!

  • Ahhh played at least two hours of basketball for like the past two days, feels good but the little toe on my left foot is not feeling well at all, it's 75% black -___-. Lakers just lost two games in a row against the Boston Celtics, had a big comeback though, cutting 24 points to 2 but just couldn't finish AGAIN.

    My first weekend after work started went by soooo quickly. I didn't accomplish anything except playing basketball, halo, and meeting some people. No readings at all. I'm so mad. I must come up with a solid game plan...soon!

  • Summer Days

    So summer is here and it's really nice. Today I felt the sudden glee of summer days. No, it's not the weather. I'm in DC so that can't be it. Let me elaborate. It started out sunny and happy today but then around 1:43PM the sky decided that it was gonna piss on the East so when I looked out, it was pitch dark (hell, I might have needed a flashnight go out, I'm not joking). I checked the weather reports and it says: HAIL TO THE SIZE OF PENNIES AND WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED IN THE WARNED AREA. STAY INDOORS AND AWAY FROM WINDOWS UNTIL THE STORM HAS PASSED. It was the first time where I saw the boxes that showed temperature bordered with red lines so it must be serious. I stayed indoors in the library, reading the Economist quietly while the storm blasted through Healy Lawn. Fun.

    Then I talked to my mom and it just reminded me how wonderful this world is. My mom used to be the strictest conservative I knew, everything had to go her way. That's how she essentially became so successful, successful to the point where even my grandparents are afraid of her haha. Speaking of family, Congratulations Auntie for a newborn baby!!! But anyway we talked a lot over my school, summer plans, internships, my personal well being, and a lot about Amy hehe. All good stuff and I'm truly blessed for having such a supportive mom. Thank you for loving me the way I am. The older I get, the more I miss my mom's presence. So it is true :]

    Lakers got into NBA finals this year for the first time in 3 years and I am psyched. Kobe is the man and now he is a super-hero because he's getting the whole team involved. Beat the Spurs in Western Conference Finals, oh god did I love that game. Jordan Farmar's Dr. J move, Kobe's 3s, Gasol's finish on Kobe's miss, and my favorite, Lamar Odom's baseline to baseline crossover Kurt Thomas 3 point play. I really like Lamar, he is handsome, humble, and one of the best power forwards I've seen. I like his style and passion. I try to play like him. Of course I would want to be Kobe more but I'm just not there yet. Speaking of basketball, I'm about to get myself to the gym to play a few games. Basketball get me so excited!!! I can't wait to execute some of the moves I saw on TV. My little toe is not very happy though. I didn't even notice until Amy pointed out that it is black...turns out that it was falling apart, so I must be careful now.

    Did I tell you how much I love reading the Economist? Gives me a great perspective. What's next? Economist, Times sometimes, Washington Post, New York Times, Wash and Cali Lawyers.

    Time flies, I start both of my internships next week. I'm quite nervous. Wang out for now.

    Wait, one really important news...so I've been playing Halo Trials for a year now and I loved it so much I bought it online for PC. I finished it yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!! So pretty much finished the whole game in a week, amazing gaming experience though it got really hard in the end. But loved it nevertheless. Go Halo!

    Life is great so far and having you in my life just makes everything more meaningful!

  • Yesterday was quite an eventful day.

    1) Went to Bank of America to pay off my undeserved dues.
    2) Went to PNC to help Amy pay her many debts :]
    3) Roamed around jewlery shops asking them to wash my silver, but not "white gold" chain.
    4) Returned Darnall key and conference card
    5) Made Credit Union deposit
    6) Got a haircut!!! Looks spiffy :]
    7) Brought two awesome books.
    8) Tried a new restaurant (Tackle Toe on M street, fish place) with Walter, excellent choice.
    9) Watched Untraceable with Walter
    10) Played Halo for 5 hours and passed many levels! One of them was called If I had a Super Weapon and it just went on and on and on, first I fought everyone and killed every enemy I sighted but eventually that turned to chaos so I just fled as many times as possible. I must have died 20 times in this one place with the snow, two shees, a huge tank, and whatnots. It was a truly challenging mission. I plan to play a couple hours today too!
    11) Talked to Little Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, you are home! :] and :[

    Thanks for the support and the blessings my friends!

  • Today

    Today you left. Today was the first time I had nightmares since I was a little kid.

    It's funny how an extraordinarily beautiful story can start in such an ordinary way. But now that you are gone, I miss everything about you. As the clock ticked, I gasped for air, trying desperately and futilely to withhold the tears and pain in my heart. You made three stops in that short pathway and waved three goodbyes before you disappeared. Every time, I couldn't do anything but wave, wince and cry a little. I never felt so helpless.

    I couldn't resist bawling out loud after you disappeared so I ran into the restroom. The first flood of sadness and despair hit me then. We went everywhere together, even the restroom. It suddenly hit me that I no longer had anyone waiting for me outside restrooms and that I can no longer wait for you outside restrooms in school, parks, and theaters. It was one small, lonely airport bathroom.

    Then I got on the metro. I started up the escalators and a second flood of sadness and despair hit me. We always had the same pose going up escalators. You are one flight up, I one flight down. This way we can hold each other perfectly and you'd caress me with your tender love. The fact that I walked up the escalators instead of riding it and holding you in my arms made me cry a little.

    Riding the metro brought another flood of sadness and despair. When we rode together, I was always the lazy, sleepy one but since you were with me, I never had to worry about getting off at the wrong station. Today I got on the familiar blue line towards Largo yet it suddenly dawned on me that my beautiful partner, you, had already left. I can no longer sneak my head under your lovely shoulders and wait for you to gently wake me up. I cried a little.

    Then the long walk back from Rosslyn. It was only two days ago that we ate in the McDonald before the Six Flags trip, that we crossed roads hand in hand, ordered and ate over 60 dollars in the dim sum place, walked blocks in the rain just to try the Pho place I heard about. Now I walk alone.

    The main gate to Darnall was an even longer walk. It seemed only yesterday that you and I were picnic-ing on the Healy lawn, eating the Epicurean fruits, listening to Jay Chou, and laughing our butt off under the tree. I tried to scare you with insect (especially dragonfly) looking leaves :] It seemed only yesterday that you and I laughed frantically at Georgetown Day, trying everything we could and eating everything we could. It seemed only yesterday that I walked past that monkey by Village A, the monkey that I'll never forget. So many memories and meaning in that monkey sign, meanings only you and I could understand.

    As I passed Leavey, I couldn't help but held out my right hand to the side, pretending to hold your cute little hand, fingers locked next to each other. As I imaginatively held your little hand, I couldn't help but turn my head to the side, whispering "gello" to a basket of air and then innocently pretend that I was you and whispered "gello" back to myself...It is quite unfair that you left with so many things here that reminds me of so.

    But I am hopeful. Six months will fly by and I will see my little lee again in California. We will travel again and again and again. We will laugh again and again and again. We will be reunited again and again and again.

    Orz-kochi-gello-hao ba-little little little wang-有没有搞错-你去死吧-你变态呀-不行-我要告诉你呀:

    Our Story-Tension

    在你左右 还有多久
    怎么样才能让时间倒流 每一分每一秒都珍重
    握紧的手 不愿放松 十二点半的飞机它在等候
    不要再让自己的眼泪流 你必须要走 
    你知道我寂寞
    一个人确实好难过
    思念是一种痛
    没有你叫我怎么活
    你是否能看见未来的收获
    你愿意在耐心等候
    要记得~~~
    我们的故事真难忘 太多的回忆和希望
    不管它有多疯狂 我愿意一生收藏
    我们的故事不能忘 太多的情节要发展
    不要放弃 因为有一天缘份会继续

    On a happier note: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vU41twdA42I&NR=1 :)





    谢谢你的温柔,谢谢你疼我,谢谢你的爱!I'm yours.
