Merry Christmas everybody!

[ Just because Christmas is officially over, doesn't mean that the spirit of the season has to be over too! Christmas should be everyday! ]

I just got these pictures from the holiday season from Steph. Ahhh...don't wanna forget the good times...

Not Here

Sitting in my friend's car, on our way home from dinner, the car spun out of control. A full turn and a half, now facing oncoming traffic ... that was a close one. Only when I got home though did I realize how close it really was. A few different set of circumstances, a not-so-empty-street ... the reality is, we likely wouldn't have made it home.

It reminds me how fragile life is. And at the same time wonder, why am I still here? Maybe we all have a reason for being here. Maybe God has a reason we made it home tonight. Maybe maybe.

You know...just think. You and I, we could have been not here tonight.

you know what's not fun?

Throwing up at someone's house!

It wasn't any drinks or alcohol that did it. Nope. It was Wendy's Late-Night "Eat-Great" Take-Out! Buyers be warned ........

don't you guys looove christmas time?

it's so fun gettin together with old friends, new friends, all friends, and jus chillin'! one of the best parts is giving gifts to buds, parents, family members, etc...and jus seeing the smile on their faces. today i'm official done my christmas shopping. yes, giving is better than receiving. looking forward to spreading da love as mel says.

also, i gotta spend some time in reflection though. as you know, it's a busy season during the holiday season, but we gotta spend some downtime reflecting on the true meaning behind christmas. yeahs. gotta do that for sure, else the holiday wouldn't be half of what it could be. maybe i'll do some of that quiet reflection/reading/journal writing downtime tonight.

wooooord. believe dat!

i knew my "merry" mood couldn't last forever. i jus had my first day of work today. tiiiired. bye bye engineering world, hello business world. ... well, that's the plan at least. it was weird dressing up in a suit and all. this time, it was "real" business-causual...none of this jeans/sweatshirt "business casual" attire like at IBM! business is funny. i'm learning so much already. it's scary though. i don't wanna be cut throat. (namely, i don't wanna cut your throat). isn't their enough pie to share with everybody?

Anyways: Return of the King ... really good. for those friends that bailed on me tonight, you really missed out! it was reallllly good! the movie started at 11:30pm. it ended almost exactly at 3am. if you're planning to watch it, i suggest that you make yourself cozy. you'll be there for a while! if anyone understands the ending completely, lemme know what was going on. i'm confused. but good confused. at least the movie can make you think about something right?

you know what's gooood?

Peanut Butter Sandwhiches! They're hot (if you toast them). They're easy to make (even I can toast!). And they're nutrious (esp. if you use whole-wheat bread)!

I've been popping them like crackers. So good for studying. ... Soooooo goood! (iz ova!)

Man....I luv exam time. I luv being able to just stay in the comfort of my home all day and just read. It's so relaxing. A cup of hot chocolate on the side, a comfortable set of clothes, and alll the time in the world it feels. No need to rush. No need to go anywhere. Just read and learn.

ahhhhhhhhh.....that's nice....

Buried in the corner of my closet was an old box containing all the letters, brithday cards, pictures, and other random items from back in my high school days. Seeing that this week was grad week from University (woah.), it was amazing to see where I came from. You know what they say, "you don't know where you're going unless you know where you're from."
