The Quest for Food

The Quest for Food

LUNCH - So we decided to walk to the plaza close by for lunch today! The ladies changed their high heels into slippers and sneakers, and the guys took off the sweater, and off we went and embarked on our quest for food, like the ancient days… The path to the source of food was about 15 minutes, but we were determined to reach there because [...]

72 Hours A Week

72 Hours A Week

HOME - My friend has been working a lot lately, and he just got the notice that he will have to be working at least 60 hours a week from now on, possibly 72, depending on the situation.  It's not just 2 weeks, or 2 months, but until the end of the year - 8 months. I feel bad for my friend, because he has a one-year-old at home, and his wife [...]

How I Love Yogurt

How I Love Yogurt

CUBICLE - I like yogurt in the morning! Usually I go for Dannon because it's cheaper (about 60 cents for a 6-ounce yogurt), but occasionally I would go for Yoplait (~ 10 cents more when on sale) because my wife likes them more.  If you ask me if I have a preference between the two, I really can't tell you.  One is a bit cheaper, but the other [...]

What Happens in Vegas – Part I

What Happens in Vegas – Part I

LAS VEGAS, NV - I just had an opportunity to attend a convention in Vegas, and so much happened that I have decided to write a few entries on it.  In this entry, we will take a look at Wynn. My buddy and I finally got to Vegas at about 8pm, starving! We decided that we're gonna go have some nice dinner (aka buffet) to reward ourselves for [...]

Singing @ Work

Singing @ Work

CUBICLE - I don't have the best voice in the world, and I don't usually sing unless I am at church.  Some of my friends like Karaoke (did I mention that my wife LOVES it?), but I always say that I don't know how to sing, and usually I get away with it~ But I LOVE to sing when I am at work! The reason is very simple - it relaxes me and the ones [...]

My Water Tastes Like Pho

My Water Tastes Like Pho

CAFETERIA - Every morning before I start my day, I would go to the cafeteria and get my water.  Yeah, I am Asian, so if there's no hot water, we get some cold water from the dispenser and then put the cup in the microwave.  I heard from my mom that it's better for the body to drink hot/warm water in the morning, so I just never questioned [...]

Staying Awake @ Work

Staying Awake @ Work

CUBICLE - I wasn't sure how many times I snoozed the alarm, but when I finally decided to check the time, it was already 8:16am! YIKES!! I am late, but I am still tired... it's gonna be a hard day, I thought. And I was right. I tried to focus on my Emails, only to find that I was just staring at the monitor.  Knowing that I was staring at [...]

Not Singing the Monday Blues~

Not Singing the Monday Blues~

HOME - I know, by the time you get to read this post, Cinderella's pumpkin carriage has gone back to a normal pumpkin, and you're now back to the office on another Monday, too.  Don't you wish it were Sunday, or heck, Saturday? Yeah, I hear you.  So I've been experimenting a couple things to help myself get ready for Mondays.  It's like getting [...]
