New Year’s Resolutions for 2006

Monday, January 30th, 2006

OK, so January is almost over. But the Chinese New Year has just begun so cut me some slack. I actually came up with this list earlier, but I’m posting them now. Something about writing your goals down help you accomplish them.

Make $X in net revenue from my business. I’m not going to write down [...]

Special Election

Wednesday, November 9th, 2005

Here in Kahli-fohrnia, we had a special election today. Regardless of my position on the propositions (for some, against some) or the fact that I didn’t vote, I completely disgusted by how easily the voting population is manipulated by advertisements.
Voters were quoting statements (word for word) from the commercials, “I didn’t like that teachers could [...]

Lost in Translation

Monday, September 19th, 2005

I work with two Chinese guys (who live in China). Their names are Oliver and Paul. Oliver and Paul probably wonder why they need to speak English in order to communicate with a guy named Tienshiao.

Personal Projects

Sunday, August 14th, 2005

I’ve got this hot idea.. blah blah. I just don’t have time.. blah blah. Should I use this or that .. blah blah
I’m not talking to/about anyone in particular, but we’ve all heard it all before. Get off your whiney ass, and “Just Do It”.
I decided long ago, that success is all about execution. Getting [...]

Video Games Live

Thursday, July 7th, 2005

Saw Video Games Lives at the Hollywood Bowl. The nerd in my says that it was a pretty cool concert. My girlfriend agrees, so it must not have been that nerdy. She posted some nerdy pictures of my brother and friends.

Asking for Directions

Tuesday, June 21st, 2005

It seems like I am a poor person to ask for directions.
In the past couple of weeks I’ve been asked twice for directions by complete strangers. Both times, they left with incorrect directions. I don’t do it on purpose, but it happens. I tried.
This latest incident went something like this:
Girl: Do you know where X [...]

Diet Pepsi Lime

Wednesday, May 18th, 2005

I’ve got a can of Diet Pepsi Lime here. The top of the can seems odd. I can’t quite place it, but it doesn’t seem like the “normal” soda can. The ring/gutter seems to be smaller in diameter (closer towards the center) and seems to be deeper too. I wonder why that is.

Nerd Pants

Tuesday, April 12th, 2005

I recently picked up/ordered a pair of ScotteVest Hidden Cargo Pants (because they were on sale). I was a big fan of the Docker’s Mobile Pants (I think that’s what they were called), but I believe they are no longer manufactured. I tend to carry a lot of crap in my pockets and unfortunately I [...]

My Favorite Time of Year

Sunday, February 27th, 2005

It’s my favorite time of year. Where you sit there and spending half an hour guessing. Could it be this? or maybe that? It’s got to be this!
Yeah, that’s right.. it’s the guess your TurboTax username and password time.
Bah. It should not be so difficult.

New Year’s Resolutions

Tuesday, February 8th, 2005

I never made a post about my New Year’s Resolutions. And I guess many sources recommend writing down your goals because it helps in achieving them or something. Most people will want to fix something, improve on something. Mine are rather straightforward.

Start my company. Make some money. A couple people have asked me what my [...]
