after 2 straight days of throat-killing screaming, i'm sounding quite a bit like macy gray now. ;) haha.. but it's all good.

wonderland was awesome on saturday! just wish it wasn't so chilly. we all got wind burn on our faces. =( went on ALL the wicked rides except for top gun ( we were too lazy to walk to the other side ;) heh. ) i think i found a new favourite ride to top the bat ( almost ^^ ). shockwave!! trust. do NOT go on if you have a weak neck or weak upper body control because you get whipped around like a fish. haha. but it hella fun! it was cool seeing some old friends again ( dee & jen) , and many new as well!

*sigh*.. went to the raptors vs knicks play off game today. we were SOO HYPED for it!! i must have hollered out a lung. haha. it was a very close game for most of it. too bad we only had the lead for, what, 2 seconds? keon clark made some really important free throws. and JYD brings soo much life in the ACC building! love that guy!! tsk tsk childs childs. what the hell were ya doing?? i dunno yo. there could have been some awesome plays, but he made a few passes too many. he blowed. alvin williams had a slow start. but he's still awesome always ;) AD! WOW! i was very surprised! he shot very well. we basically depended on him for a good part of the game. vince? EH. hehe i guess he is slowly getting better. but still not shooting that 27 pt average he usually shoots during the regular season. friggen glen rice, allen houston and latrell sprewell are too damn good. now we've got some serious pressure to win the next game or we're booted out of the playoffs by the knicks once again. atleast i wasn't at the "elminating game" like last year ;)

did anyone catch the leafs game saturday night? seems like leafs and raptors win games and lose games together ;) but it was pretty amazing how it got into over time tho. scoring 2 goals that quickly is pretty damn good! pulling the goalie out with only about a minute left and scoring with 20 some seconds to spare certainly brought us to our feet even after a looooong day of walking around wonderland.

anyhow. i probably won't be able to update for a few days! i'm moving in to the 'Loo tomoro afternoon!! =( and i'm not bringing my comp until the weekend. but i'll try to get a hold of the internet some how ( heck, what the hell am i talking about, of course i will. ^^ ) blah..
anyway here are some pics dave took!
[ courtside! (ya right haha) ]

today was my last day at work. this day seemed like it took forever to come yet i can still remember my first day here at SLI like it was yesterday.

i remember...

arriving 20 min early in my grey puffy cm jacket, my esprit scarf, in my black banana rep. dress shirt and jacob fuzzy grey skirt ( yes.. me in a skirt. ^^ how rare is that! ) and my 4 inch heels haha. nodding off during training on my first day from only getting 3 hrs sleep the night before. the first time i was beaten in 8 ball by shawn and KJ by their "international rules" ( bs u bastards! damn co ops always get picked on! ). my first pay cheque *yummy*. valentines day. "will you spend the day with me ^_^" *shivers*. DDR at sega pladium. the cool advice and talks with Kaitlyn. that dude from ottawa & elevator rides with GQ boi from 2 floors up =P. 10 oz steak at jack astors. chinese new year dim sum on spadina. the cool lunch talks and euchre in the kitchen with the other co ops. falling asleep on the comfy couches watching news radio and the crocodile hunter with Kris and Charles. leaving early to go shopping. bringing domo to work. my nick name kimmi. the free drinks. free pizzas. "Single bite" hamburgers at the food court. cafe mocha at Timmy Ho's. the pool tournies. the flying lawn chairs. half cart wheels between the cubicles. shopping in the mail room. my going away lunch buffet at town and country. the sticker pics and digital camera. my long awaited pool challenge with one of my managers ( u know i letcha win old man! ^^ ) and saying good bye to everyone *sniff*.

it's a good sports day for toronto!! leafs take game one! awwww yea!!!! i think we were pretty lucky. i think we need to be more agressive when we have penalties instead of just standing in front of the goalie like sitting ducks. the devils are pretty good at killing penalties. they go straight atcha. but we scored anyway! muhahah this'll give the leafs some confidence!~

the raptors.. heh. vince still hasn't got his shot back, but atleast he's driving more to the hole. alvin williams is friggen doing amazing!! i'd say we did a good job embarassing ny.

survivor.. don't tell me! i haven't watched it yet.. i had to tape it so ShhHHhhhHH

wuhoo! one more day!!

go leafs!! go raptors!! go elisabeth!!

gonna get some serious tv time t'nite! ;)
if only there were picture in picture in picture tv's!

Dribblin' commercial ( approx 2 min ) [Quick time]

don't you wish you had moves like dat ;)

it feels as if it should be friday by now. this week just seems to feel like it's dragging. and the e-mails and work just seems to pile up in my inbox. as if they know that i'm leaving and that they want me to squeeze in as much work as possible before the next co op settles in (btw, things worked out and she was offered the job! hooray! *clap* ) on a good note, Kaitlyn is awesome ;) i don't think i'll ever have as cool a supervisor again in future work terms! ( and i'm not trying to suck up! ^^ the evaluation is already mailed-in, dudes! haha ) can't wait till the weekend! wonderland and then playoff game 3 raps vs nicks on sun! aww yea.. i know you're jealous.

i get on the subway at yonge and sit in a little two-seater bench in the corner. the train filled up fast. still rush hour at 7? i sit there staring blankly out the window, in my own little world, thinking. arriving at woodbine, the lady beside me gets up to get off. the passenger standing by the door eyes the vacant seat next to me. oh no you don't. don't even think about it. look! empty seat over there! i mean, i'm sure you are very nice. really, it's not you, it's me. i just want to sit alo-.. what the- hey. where you going? what, not good enough for you? oh, i see how it is.

bastard.

Here it is! i got it back! ( Thanx again Ray! )

Sunday, April 15, 2001

today was a lazy sports day. i think i probably left an ass-groove on my couch for what seemed like endless hours of triple header nba action and then watching a rerun of a Feather weight championship boxing match.

hamed and barerrai'm not exactly a great fan of boxing. the idea of two dudes knocking at each other until their faces are bloodied up and mashed doesn't really appeal to me. haha.. unless it's one of tyson's 15 sec matches or biting off another body part or *drool* oscar de la hoya ;) the main event was at the mgm grand in las vegas last saturday april 7th. marco antonio barerra vs the "prince" naseem hamed. it was the feather weight division so they were little skinny dudes. but what caught my attention was, what a cocky-ass S.O.B. this naseem character was. the guy seriously thinks he's the sh-t. he entered the ring on some sort of platform resembling a gigantore swing bowing to the boo-ing crowd. i guess his record of 35-0 could only inflate his hot head even more. throughout the entire match, barerra definitely had the upper hand. but after every hit to the head, naseem only responded back with a huge grin and tapping at his chin as if to say "com'on.. you can do better than that" mocking the mexican. glad to say that barerra won by unanimous decision after 12 rounds. from watching only one match i could see what a prick this guy was. but you know what? in a way he is pretty smart for acting that way. he was the guy you would love to hate. it made people keep coming back to watch him. waiting for that match where he would finally get his ass whooped. sure he's a prick, but he's a rich prick. so what's gonna happen now that he's finally lost? hrmmmm...

Saturday, April 14, 2001

remember back in the day it seemed like such a sin to be home on a friday night? it was like a must or you'd be branded for life as a loser with no friends. haha.. now a days, i find that the older i get, the more i just want to be left alone sometimes and just stay at home, all comfy in my pj's and blanky, stuffing my face, relaxin on the couch enjoying a game ( with yoshi and domo ^^ .. or a bf would be nice too~ ) heh. ( btw, raptors, leafs, AND the jays all won their games today! wuhoo! ) my ex didn't understand that. i was with him during summer after OAC and everyday it was pretty much the same thing. ( i hope he doesn't read this ;) if he does, sorry, geekass! ) and to tell you the truth, i think we must have spent more time with his friends than we did alone. and i think that's what pissed me off the most. the thing i enjoyed most was going to his house early sunday mornings,waking his ass up to let me in, and just sleeping with him ( just sleeping, tsk tsk dirty minds.. ). i mean, it's actually nice just staying home sometimes. in waterloo, on the other hand, haha... it's a totally different story. we have to make time to go out! ( and our late night dates at the CS lab do NOT count )

went restaurant hunting with my brother and his fiancee today for their wedding in the next year. man, planning and forking over the cash is craziness. can be as much as 50 bucks a head, for people like your refugee uncle and family from the motherland whom you haven't met but is somehow related to you, decorations, dj, everything. i don't think i could do it. seems so mah fan ( translation: troublesome ) i'd be all over the vegas idea in a second. haha. but that probably won't happen. but then again who says i'll be marrying?? ( me who's longest relationship was not even 2 months )

SuckAs!! ) i spent the majority of the day playing pool. haha.. my company is too good to me. there was an easter day pool tournament. sadly me and my partner lost =( but i got to fill in for someone taking them to the championship game. and then i got kicked out when the dude came back *boo!* i contributed! ahh wells.. haha.. yong, my co worker, and his manager won the trophy. i played a few games with him, losing terribly. call me queen of scratches! friggen no cue ball control and the damn pockets are so big. he gave me his gold medal... out of pity damn you! haha.. "take it as an easter present" he says. uh huh.. =P ahh wells.. probably going to hit up VIP tonight with PC and shoot a few games of snooker. gain my confidence back whooping his white butt. HAHA. i'm just joking. ( maybe ) ;) anyways, was bored at work and took some gay pictures with Charles's digital camera..

if y'all are wondering. i'm doing good ;) if you've talked to me lately, or read my prevoius entries, i know i must have sounded like i was going through another major dillemna in my life. actually, i sorta was. a religion-identity crisis. was something i've been putting off for a very long time and it was building up for literally years.

i've heard a lot of different views these past few days. many insiteful messages, e-mails and posts. and last night, for the first time in a very long time, i prayed. it had been so long, i almost had forgotten. how can you do that? i have no clue, i guess i was so nervous, i didnt' know where to start. but as soon as i had got going, i was at it for a good while. i had a lot to say Him, and a lot to pray about. there are still many questions, but atleast it's a start. ;) and i just wanna thank a all of you who've helped me thru this. you guys are totally awesome!

mr. happytoday i brought domo to work. everyone came to visit him! but i had to hide him when the VP came by to talk to me. heh lil old to play with toys you say? i don't care, i'm still young ( @ heart )! ;) ( sorry mr. happy and mr. sh-... err.. the excreman!! i have been neglecting you guys! heh ) excremani spoke to my manager about getting off work on the 27th instead of the 30th ( a day before school! craziness ) and he gave me the ok. *wuhoo!* i might also be able to come back next term as well! but not for the same position. i wanted to be a part of the program developing team. something more CS-y related. this would give me a great opportunity to gain some good programming experience. that would be a huge load off my shoulders if things work out. i've read a few articles lately predicting a recession in the economy, meaning, less jobs =( and that's really made me a lil freaked out.

it's almost that time again. it's getting closer and closer... i can just smell the cow manure now. heh.. for all you waterloosers on co-op now, i'm sure you know what i talking about. i've even started packing *shivers* soon it will be shopping for stationary supplies.. at work. *evil grin* =P lotsa luck to the lucky bunch who have finals now ^^ it'll all be over soon. my how time flies.

Monday, April 09, 2001

as of late, i've been thinking so much about Christianity, the people, and my life. discussions that have made my mind go a mile a minute. what me and my best friend had been through together. the discouraging experiences we've had all these years. and how much we want to get back to Him. i would rather be a complete athiest then a hypocritical Christian. why are there so many rules? what if they are wrong? doing good things alone doesn't get you into heaven. shouldn't it be what's inside your heart? God knows everything.

why does it have to be so hard? and so complicated? it shouldn't be. and it's not. i only make it so.

i have so many questions. so many fears.

i am glad i do not have to go through this alone.

i'm just one big jumbo ball of emotion right now.

Saturday, April 07, 2001

it was really great hearing such encouraging words from all of you yesterday ;) i was really touched. it was the second time i had ran to the washroom to cry on the toilet at work this whole work term. heh ( sorry cal~ ) i am feeling so much better. it means a lot to me.

after work i went shopping downtown! oh yea.. heh.. and i got my cartilidge pierced! *ouch* i like it! but i keep on knocking it by accident *ouchx2*

click to see a sexy pose ;)meet the newest edition to my family of stuffed animals on my bed ;) isn't he sooo cute?!? when i first saw him, my first instinct was to call him mr. munchie ( hehe.. cal's nick too! ) his real name is

( domo-kun )!!!
can't you just hear him saying "ArRrRrRr!!!" to you?? ^^ i still don't know what he is. all the tags on him were in japanese! and i could only read hirigana. >.< so if any jap peeps read this, you know what to do! anyhow.. my friend oliver bought this for me. he's such a sweetie ;) we were at urban outfitters and there was one of those games where you have a metal rod with a metal loop on the tip of it. and then there's a wire outline of a man. the object of the game was to loop round the outline with the metal rod without touching the sides. oliver bet me that if i could do it than he'd buy it for me! first time around i almost did but lost =( but he gave me a second chance. and the rest is history ;) puahahah...

my brother was scrounging through the closets for some old school clothes last night. he needed some clothes to dress up for a church skit in fellowship tonight. he was going for the old-school punk ass look. haha.. was pretty whack. he dug up the old polka dotted silky dress shirts, the super baggy houser pants ( i'm talking MC hammer stylez ^^ ) the CM black fitted hat, bomber jacket, and the Doc martins. heh. he was stylin' alrite ;)

victor, my brother, is one dude who's really got his life together. lately i've been reading all these blogger entries about how the university-adult-working life is really getting to us. full of uncertainty and not knowing what paths we'll end up with in the future. i really admire my brother. he's 27, working for a great company with a good paying job, just recently got engaged, and is so active in the church community. i don't think he's ever been happier. and to know that, it makes me feel so moved and happy inside as well. vic's only been a Christian for maybe, 3 years? i think a little longer than he's known Nat, his gf. before he was introduced, i was the only Christian in the family. i've been a Christian since i was 11 ( i think? ) and even tho church always preached to spread the Gospel, i always felt funny bringing it home. who would have known my brother could be so strong in faith in such a short period of time and even baptized before me. i've been feeling especially guilty and low in faith. i haven't been to church in months. it just seems i get further and further away. but i only seem to try to turn to Him when i'm in need. when i'm at a low. i've done things that i'm not proud of. and this only make me feel even more guilty. i've been feeling very uneasy about my future as well. my future in the computer field. is this what i really want to do? sure it's something i'm good at, but, would i suffer being a code monkey for the rest of my working life? last night i was reading Pegger's blog. she's headed to calgary on missions for summer and has found an awesome job. she wanted to devote her summer to Him. her prayers have been answered. she put her faith in Him and He provided. He has a plan for us all. it must feel so amazing to be touched by Him. i've been so ignorant, i probably don't even notice.
"don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way that you expect."

Wednesday, April 04, 2001

no, i did not pull another "oops.." grrrrrrrrr...

thanks to jen, my mommy, and the rice cooker. they saved the day! hooray!
but what about next time?

*sigh*....

mr. sunoh mr. sun... sun... mr. golden sun...

look how beautiful it is outside. a high of 13 degrees. my office has an awesome view over looking lake ontario and on the other end is the ACC, sky dome and the CN tower. i wish i was out there catching some rays and just chillaxing or just hittin' some balls around ( tennis balls ya wally ). i need to be more active. gives me more energy and lift away this darn winter depression. in a way i can't wait for school to start. i am really starting to get sick of work. i know i will be saying the same thing 2 months into school but heck that's how it's gonna be for the next 3 and half years.

heh. sorry for my pathetic blog entry last night. it was a cruddy ass day and a half. i seem to be having so many mini crisis's (sp?) during work term. thinking so much that i over react and blow things way out of proportion. that's what happens to an emotional-naive-gullible freak like me. i'll do things without thinking clearly and behave so "chung dung" ( translation: rash ) also being on the red dot doesn't help either. heh i'm so grateful that i have good friends who bring me back down to earth and screw my head back on even tho they are so far away.

thanks you guys~!

i am so stupid.

3 things really pissed me off today.

#1. the client i've been dealing with (TD bank) for the past week and a bit who's been bitching like a mofo about why they're advertisements are not showing up and not displaying properly, this and that and this and that. frig. and of course. it is all my fault. so i spend my own time and work time trying to figure out wtf is wrong with it. only to receive a e-mail from them today a week later apoligizing that the codes are fine, the site is fine, the ads are fine. and that it was the firewall on their end screwing things up. ...........

#2. it took me almost 2 hrs to get home from work today. thinking i'd get home extra early getting off at 4:30. but no.. it takes 20 friggen years for the damn huntingwood bus to arrive at sheppherd station. and then it takes another 10 years for the bus to even get to bayview because construction had forced traffic into only 2 LANES. TWO.. FRIG.. during RUSH HOUR. you can imagine the congestion.. we were bumper to bumper going slower than a snail's pace.

#3. blogger has decided to cut out the blogvoices count on our beautiful posts. now i can't tell what entries have posts and how many entries and what not. i know i know.. i can always have e-mail notification. but still.. GrRrRrRrrrRRrrr....... well.. atleast our bloggers load up a lot faster now.........


.... frig
well one thing was good today. was the first time walking home from work with the sun out and shining on me.

HoLy @#$#!%$#%@$%$#@$#% FRIG!!!!!!

i should start my own fan club.

eh jay ( my lesbo-hapkido-ass-kicking-long-time-girlfriend ) and mike mike ( my italian mafia friend )?

puahahahaa damn mofos..

don't mind me.. i need some sleep..

Monday, April 02, 2001

man.. my company rocks!! ;) (not my job.. the company heheh) i was away on a field trip all morning! and then they took us to jack astors all expensed!! me and my supervisor, Kaitlyn (she's one cool chickie ^^ ), are just the tiniest thing.. and you would never believe both of us could finish a 10 oz steak with sauteed mushrooms, jack astors yuMmMmmmmMmy garlic bread *drool* , huge baked potato with the works and ceasar salad. wells.. what can i say.. we are beasts!!!! puahahahah.. i hope they take us to sega city again before i leave!! and they best be taking me out on my last day here too!! hehe.. (kaitlyn if you are reading this.. *hint hint* hahaha.. ) *yawn*.... my belly is bustin' out.. i can hardly breathe.. looks like an extra hour of exercising today... oh... but it was worth it ;)

Sunday, April 01, 2001

*yawn* so damn tired... just got home.. thinking it was 3:30 am but remembered that it's day light savings time! DAMN! haha.. anyway.. went to vip to play some snooker with erica, vg, jimmy and his gf. and i must say i had the worst game ever =( was gonna go to turbo but decided not to..

saw a chinese movie today.. with cecilia cheung and eason chan called "twelve nights". cecelia plays a naive-paranoid-emotional-tantrum-throwing-clingy girlfriend who thinks of nothing but her boyfriend, who treats her terribly. and when they break up, for a whole month she is depressed. in one part of the movie she is being comforted by her friend. she asked her "if i went back to him what would he do?" and her friend replied "he will make you feel worse. why? because he doesn't love you anymore." hearing soemthing like that, all you do is ask yourself over and over again why? why is it so unfair? because it hurts. i've noticed that when you've lost grasp of something, you are desperate to cling on to it and do everything you can to keep it. but you know what? that only drives him away even more. in the end of the movie, she is back together with eason, and she's finally got him wrapped around her little finger. but she only ends up running away from him. overall, the movie was cheezy and tacky. but what scares me most is how realistic it is. *shiver*.
(sorry if i don't make sense.. it's 5 in the morning ZzzZZzz)
