so my battery has been pretty crappy, so my bro did some water thing with it, and i decided to give it another try to charge it up. so i turned up my T.M.Revolution and drove down edinger all the way. it took about half an hour to get there, but it was pretty worth it. a lot of crap in between, but the end was gorgeous.
the way back.
Uh-oh…
so my week at home seemed to make bobby lonely and die. by the time i came back, he didn’t have any juice to start up. jess and ben came by to help me jumpstart (haha, get it? sweeeet.) unfortunately her battery wasn’t labelled very clearly, and our intuition was wrong. so we ended up shorting the batteries and frying the jumper cables. see above. haha, so that freaked the hell out of us, but jess and ben gratiously took me to target and get me another pair of cables. so yeah. we got the connections figured out and all was well. the end.
family poker
despite all the crappy eye buggin’, the day was pretty cool. my bro suggested to teach my mom how to play hold ’em. so we did, and we played with a $20 buy in. we didn’t have any chips so we played with these awesome multicolor wrapped chocolate candies. it was fun, but my mom kept buying in without any regard for the money. it was good for me, seeing as how i won more money, but it sucked how the stupid 20 bucks meant so much to me, yet it was just play money for my mom. bah. i need to make more money.
merry christmas.
so there’s about an hour ’til christmas day.
meh, my eye still hurts like a mofo. this little break back home has been pretty okay.
though i didn’t really get a chance to do all i wanted, it’s always great to spend time at my home up north.
recently i’ve been thinking about what i look for in a girl.
and besides from small things that i’ve picked up here and there from watching my friends handle their boyfriend/girlfriend relationships, i basically look for qualities that my mom has. i think that’s a really good thing. though she doesn’t handle everything the way i like her to, she has the best intentions. i honestly can’t complain how she has brought up my brother and me. psh, i love the way we turned out. meh. i’m sorta blabbering, and being very egotistical, but i had just been bugging to jot down this down for the past few days.
mmm, this morning, i had a great dream about biking again. it involved my best friend in junior high, vikrum aiyer. man, it’s been hella days since i’ve talked to with him. he’s at UCB now. he had always dreamed about becoming an astronaut. i hope he’s well on his way. or at least learning to make great curry.
blah blah. what a waste of a post. i’ll try and update with something better later.
i hope you all have a wonderful christmas day.
me and jen
meh. i really suck at taking pictures. but oh well, i don’t really give about having great pics.
so yeah, this is my buddy jen, that most you guys know about, but never meet, cause she’s a nor*cal gal. she’s doing rather well, and i’m really proud about all the new friends she’s making. although as for some other things, i’m still hoping she’ll rethink. anywho, she’s probably my first real friend. after all the shizzzz we’ve been through, we still somehow manage to stand each other. it’s pretty cool.
meanwhile, i get this random IM from calvin:
just missed him for winter break. but i’m still planning on going to visit him in chicago over spring break or something.
next week, i shall be meeting up with sable. she sent me this neat little x-mas card disguised as a report card. it’s great. even though we don’t get a chance to hang out much, i know i can always count on her to be there for me, when i need to talk to her.
great friends. great family. great life.
well, at least, i appreciate it a lot more.
emo-joe
haha. i hate the nights. when i’m alone and thinking too much. i just gotta hang in there, and put my trust in those i know i can trust. it all works out.
it’s not only good knowing that things are okay, but more that things are going to be okay for a long time. plus taking some weight of your shoulders is a great thing. just gotta watch out how i take it off next time.
muhaha. work is going great. i finished the xmas cards for my company, finally. i got my lonely days taken care of. and friends family, past, recent, and current are all doing rather well.
the only thing i have to complain about is my mofo eye. if i were only put in that position of the first victim of Saw II. you know what i mean?
i’sa going back home tomorrow. i hope good times will be had by all.
[edit]
5:30am – omg, so i woke up slowly and my eye was all crusty like all my friends and i were talking about yesterday. it’s actually my first time. i’m not a crusty eye virgin anymore. sweet.
and better yet, when i got my eye open, i noticed that my eye didn’t have the same discomfort it did last night. i think it might be all better.
damn those eye drops really must’ve worked. freakin ey, my eye doctor is a genius. he formulated my problem and solution over the fun. if you’d like to have him as a doctor too, he is: Harry Chan O.D. (510) 797-8770.
now that i’m up super early, i guess i’ll go pack now.
i do have one complaint though. my crusty eye wasn’t all that crusty. i loosened it up with my internal tears or something. i sorta wanted to pry my eyelids apart. just thought it would be more fun.
BYE!

[edit 2]
for my buddy…
you can pick your friends.
and you can pick your nose.
but you can’t pick your friends’ nose!
ARASO? ayyyeeesh…
i’m such a chicken shit.
it’s funny how these blogs are made to be a source of release and venting, yet i usually only reserve it for the daily thoughts, whilst keeping the personal stuff among friends. meh…just a random thought.
anyhow, everyone is pretty much home doing their own thing. probably not even having all that much fun. but it leaves me rather lonely here in tustin. i’m ready to head back up north and play with my mom and dad and friends. last year going back home was the last thing that i wanted to do. i guess cause of all the hectic crap that was going on. but these days. i’m feeling a shift again. tustin is still a really great home, but i’m getting some good comfy vibes from nor*cal once again.
other than that. there’s not much news from today. i got a flash thing for my camera phone. that’s about all. so i can take better pictures in the dark now. haha. as if i were really good a picture taking, in the first place.
i love going back through old music and rediscovering forgotten phases.
even with rock. it’s been a good while since i’ve listened to linkin park, system of a down and dry cell.
here’s one of my fav’s:
I don’t understand this world that we are living in
People give you things so they can take them back
again
I don’t want to be part of history
I just want my life to be the way that it should be
Every now and then I find a way to slip away
Cuz every now and then there’s only so much I can
take
If I find a way I would leave today
