I just spent the last hour or so going back to my old blogs; reading and looking at pics from different times in my life, like digging up an old time capsule. I wish I had kept all my older posts from 2003 when I originally started documenting key points in my life, and also just weird funny adventures I had with randoms, but I stupidly erased them all for unknown reasons. It’s kind of like me going back to Imagestation and finding out that they shut their site down a few months back and all my old archived pictures are gone. Complete bummer but completely my fault. I realized from my old posts that I was extremely unhappy with my old job and also my living situation in Los Angeles. I also noticed that I was kind of a last soul with no real goal in life and was just drifting in whatever direction the current was taking my jdm inspired raft at the time. I was working to survive which I was barely doing and was unhappy at living which made it all the worst. I worked 5 days a weeks with backbreaking hours to look forward to a weekend of either working again or complete nothingness. Sure I took meaningful trips with Shorty and other loves ones which will forever hold great memories, but my life outside of the occasional weekend was quite grey and lonesome. Maybe this wasn't as obvious to you or even projected in my writing, but reading my older blogs took me back to that specific moment that I sat there (sometimes even replaying that song that I was listening to at the moment). Weird how things like smell, pictures or even old writings can do that to you. Anyways, I didn't realize it at the time, but I was actually laying down a yearbook of sorts for days like this. Days like what you ask? Days where I'm completely bored out of my mind because Lien is in another state, and because its a boring Tuesday night with absolutely nothing on the box. Anyways, enough with the silly talk. I’ll continue on with my new rejuvenation of life in a later post. I’m sure by now, you know that I have a new hobby that I’m passionate about and can’t seem to get my mind off of. I’m also sure you’re sick of hearing about it so I’ll spare you the details (for now). Keep in mind though this new addiction has opened up new doors for me as well as help me gain a new perspective in life. Weird, I know, but it really has been a blessing since day 1. More to come at a later time vatos. Ok, here are a couple of events that have since happened to me and loved ones since we last spoke. - Lien quit her job that she absolutely hated and is currently enrolled at USC doing the grad school thing for Occupational Therapy. - I quit my job at FCTI that I absolutely hated and is currently working at AT&T as a Business Advisor and absolutely loving it. - Lien and I have moved out of the Westside and are currently residing back in our hometown of the OC. We both are absolutely ecstatic to be within reasonable driving distance to our family and friends. - My sister is going to be giving me another niece come July. I’m absolutely stoked! - Trang will be giving Vu a son come Sept? I’m sure he’s absolutely excited. - Daniel and Joy will be married this Aug. I’m sure he’s absolutely freaked. - Thu and Long will be getting married this July. - I got a gym membership. Yeah I know, like wtf huh? That’s probably about as personal as I’ll be getting for the time being. It actually felt pretty darn good to blogging again. Although not quite as amusing or informative as some would have liked, it was still conducive to getting the ol’ brain working again and off the tele. I will now leave you with this great picture of something completely random. Until next time b*tches.
