Glad I waited a little bit for my MacBook Pro



Because originally I wanted to spent like 2000-ish for a Refurbished MacBook Pro, so I can save a little money and I heard from other reviews that they never had a problem and it comes with their 1 year warranty anyway. A new MacBook just came out not the MacBook Air (that's old news) but the same MacBook with a faster Intel Core Duo Processor and with the updated mouse pad like they released with the MacBook Air. I originally was going to get the 2.4 Ghz Processor with 160gb of hard disk space... But now with the same speed and 200gb of hard disk and with the new mousepad it's the same price I was originally going to spend on a Refurb... W00T! I'm so almost there I can just taste it!

Congrats Dan King on his Promotion at work! W00T!

It's been a while I guess...

I had a post recently but I removed it just to protect the privacy of the people who were involved that weekend (2/16/08) I went out and I just didn't want something like that to go out to the work environment and screw some people over knowing it's something I put out here, anyway...

Still don't have my MacBook Pro yet, I'm very upset about this and I think it's going to be a longer wait, because I've spent a lot of my tax return on junk and booze, also the bonus we're suppose to get at work I only got some of that. I was expecting a lot of money to come my way... oh well. I guess I should just build up more credit on my cards, maybe it's sad but maybe I should ask for my parents help with that... hmmm... no I shouldn't I hate asking for any help and it's just a computer anyway.



Wow I never made an entry about me getting the trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico! Yeah at work they had this thing where the "top performers" during a duration of work would get a all paid trip to Puerto Vallarta and I made it! I really didn't think I was one of the tops it's weird to when I say that to people they're always saying I'm just being modest. I honestly did not believe I was going to get that trip but HELL YEAH! It's going to be a 5 day trip and I feel it's going to be a drunk fest down there I will start at the airport if I have to. The other people that were selected don't really look like the party sort so I'll have to make the best of it and drink it up myself hahaha. What I'm trying to work on is my weight I want to drop some LBs before I get down there I want to actually look decent and not a big fatass walking down the streets. I don't think I'm too big but it's not to my liking so I feel I have to shed the pounds. I'm starting to eat less and run on the treadmill which is killing me I remember I use to do this a lot back in the day (which is like 2 years ago) but right now I'm struggling. Well I don't know what else to talk about anymore so I'm going to stop here.

Can't Please Everyone

I hate parents sometimes! My little cousin has always been into music and she sings all the time she wants to be a singer so bad... (You’re asking if she's good? Well she's ok more work and she can maybe do something with it) anyway she does a lot of choir stuff and you can tell she has a lot of passion for it. She was bringing up one time that American Idol was coming to Omaha and she would like to try out and bluntly her mom says "we won't support you" I mean what the hell? I guess it's another time they lived in and they still think how people thought in the "old country" how it's education and you have to be a doctor or lawyer or something that they believe will be a comfortable life. I know they just think what's best but if you have no love for that why pursue? You're doing it for them not for yourself so you'll be living perhaps miserable because it's not something you wanted.

I don’t know I guess the reason why I’m so upset is because I think it’s the same with me and that’s why I’m probably feeling the way I feel sometimes. I’m not happy how life is going and I don’t even know what I’ll do in 5 years hopefully still not at EDS then I know that I have failed. My parents wanted me to do something with computers be a programmer because they heard from the grapevine that, (Asian parents love to talk about their kids and brag to other parents) that makes a lot of money. As much as technical I am with computer and knowledge of how they work it’s not really what I wanted to do. To be honest though I don’t even know what I wanted to do. (I might have made this clear in past posts) Some time going to college I just didn’t try anymore and I just stopped caring, I quit they’re upset but I decided on my own. I would love to go back to school but I just wanted to do something else for a while that doesn’t have to do anything with school.

I know I’m still young and have plenty of time to decide on what to do but it doesn’t help that I see people my age already finishing college and actually working at this big time company or starting their own or something. I stop caring to try to please my parents on what they want me to be even though they do bring it up sometimes. Right now I need to do things myself even though I don’t even know what that is…

So close to my MacBook Pro!

Oh man I'm so giddy when thinking about it! I can't wait for this money to roll in so I can finally make this long awaited event to be actual.
