1.  Halo 3.. is it such a good game?  Regardless on my way to work I heard it on radio…”Halo 3 broke U.S. record set from ANY entertainment related launch – even beating Spiderman 3 and Harry Potter…        $170 mil  on the day of launch for microsoft…..      holy shit.

2.  iPhone rocks!  Does anyone know battery life on this thing?  Seems like it needs recharge awfully quick… maybe I gotta do the drain-full charge cycle thing………

3.  It’s been almost 5 yrs.  Farewell and hope I have made a good choice for myself.  Metra.. here I come….

Frustraing.  Blah.

Don’t ever be nice and leave ur personal cell for ur work contact.  Becuase ppl are fucking bitches and they abuse it like they have the right to call you.  One of the biggest mistkae I’ve made @ my current job.  I thought people would understand that it was me being nice to give out the method of contact so when THERE ARE FUCKING EMERGENCY situations I can be reached at.  Now if this is comany phone and job requirement then I would have nothing to say.  I am talking about personal phone.  Nowadays these bitches would call my office number, then my cell.  And two guys just called 4 times each in less than 2 mins.  If I dind’t pick the phone up…  fucking acknowledged tthat I do not give a fuck about YOU or WHATEVER you come to ask for.  Yes I am just this diao and da pai you fucking asshole commodity managers.  Not like people are gonna die because you get your answers couple mins later.  Get a life u damn mofos.

Wii IS FUN!  woot.  Can’t believe I let it collect dust since launch until now. 

289 for wii bowling so my Dad can’t brag all day that he bowls 225.

666 for bowling training (the one with lots of pins).. not sure if this is high..

26 physical age or watever.  woot.  (nice job for the 78 year old … heh)

And yes, Chunho.  I continued your save in RE4 and I finally stucked up some ammo. 

*************************************************************************

Got a 22″ Westinghouse LCD monitor this past weekend @ Bestbuy.  Contrast a bit low 700: 1 but a killer deal IMO. 

179 + tax – 50 = 14x.xx   w/ store pickup.  So far no dead pixels.  woot!    Thanks AYC/KMM!  lol

Microsoft Outlook is such a piece of shit. 

I don’t know what’s more shocking.  That a game addict like myself who doesn’t really play games as much/at all nowadays… OR

Waking up at 7:30 a.m. on a Sunday morning and saw my Dad who was actually creating his own Mii.  Did I mention he was already playing Wii the night before when I went to bed….. 

Transformers has got to be one of the best movies ever.  For ppl that don’t know what the heck transformers are… the movie will still be enjoyable.  It’s a long movie but it’s pretty exciting/funny throughout the whole thing.  I figured the only ppl that might not enjoy this movie as much are probably like 90 year old grandmaz.  Or, perhaps the hardcore trasnformers fans that don’t like Michael Bay’s vision of what these robots should look like.  Afterall bumblebee should be a vw beeeetle………..   Optimus prime does look better in the movie in my opinion…   And I thought Megatron should transform into a pistol?!? 

But seriously, why are the autobots so weak?  Decepticons are much cooler… 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Decepticons

Man…  I sure am disappointed they didn’t include those multiple morph into one giant ass robot such as construction decepticons or Dinobots from autobots…

It was an awesome experience to…..

Shop in super Wal-mart on a Friday night for some consumption goods….

Happened to walk by a customer service counter and noticed few people sitting on the floor smiling…. 

First in the line was this happy college student (looks like Adrian Aw btw!  LOL!)  

Next, a girl with broken ankle or something…(being injured yet still @ walmart around mid-night, so mentally determined)   

Followed by two dark hair girls who got so bored – one of them actually spent a quarter to buy a ballon from the customer service counter and started to draw shiet on it….  

Lastly - a walmart employee that probably just got off her late shift….her badge is still on her….   

Since you just don’t see ppl lining up in walmart near midnight, we decided to have a quick chat and found out these awesome kickass cool ppl are actually WAITING FOR HAIRY POTHEAD : The Deathly Hallows book launch on 7/21, 12:01 A.M.

We soon joined the group to be the 6th & 7th in the line for the book launch….. because “we simply coudln’t miss being part of the history”……   (said by the dude lined up behind us, who pre-ordered it, next to an indian looking lady who was laughing in a very.. fullfilling face and kept nodding showing that she agrees with the dude….  WHAT A HISTORICAL MOMENT!)

After chatting with the friendly walmart employee at the counter, we received the super duper awesome red wristband that says GRYFFINDOR which allows you to buy 1 book.  1 wristband per book!  they also come in green, blue, and yellow for the other dorm.. name or watever.  (sorry not a big Harry Potter fan)

Having read 0 Harry Potter book, Saw two movies and fell asleep in the first one…  we waited for 40 mins to 12:01 and bought 4 books.  $17.99 each.  They also handed out posters, bookmarks and some trivia cards…     On our way out, ppl in the line were looking at our books, I can even hear someone said “woah…they got 4….”   I was so proud of myself…..  

Overall this was fun and I have learned –

- It’s proooven….NOT possible to make profit off Ebay on book launch……..   end up making 3-4 bux and gonna return the other 3……

- Harry Potter fans are all so nice.  Look at them being all happy and smiley!  There was this one girl even dressed up with witch hat and watever that uniform in the movie.  Kickass!

After years of working w/ computer, I still didn’t learn my lesson.  Gotta love freezing while compiling data.  I also got about 50 pop ups saying system out of memory resources for each of the data that was executing.  I sure had fun clicking “ok” for about 5 min straight.

SAVE OFTEN JY.  Consider this is a message to myself.  SAVE.  File-> SAVE.  SAVE AS.  SAVE like there is no tomorrow!!!! 

Hrmmm… working on a dell P4 cheap rig with only 256 mb of RAM.  On top of that, I am simultaneously running excel/word/outlook, bunch firefox tabs and windows media player playing 愛轉角 all day long.  Oh well, I asked for this shiet.

At this moment I should be pissed about losing a hour and half of work but instead I am posting this on xanga……….    interesting…..

—————————————————————————————————————–

Two things i would never understand. 

1.  Why is that in US, everytime there is a huge rain, or some sudden snow flurry weather… the traffic lights always have such a high chance of not working? 

2.  Why!  When there is an accident on the road, why would ppl always slow down and look at it.  This morning, 53 was seriously packed and just when I was wondering what’s going on…  

WGN traffic on radio: ” 53 had serious traffic due to a burning car which blocked the right lane near Biesterfield exit…”    OK.  One lane down, there are 4 more lanes to drive on.  Normally, I drive 75, 80 mph near that section… so it can’t possibly be this bad…. NOT.

As I slowly cruised to the accident spot.  I saw a car that was seriusly burnt up on the side (well, duh) .. and after that point..  everybody started to accelerate like starting of a indy 500 race.  There were absoutly no traffic RIGHT after that spot.  Good god. 

long time no post…    Some random stuff:

-Rest in Peace GrandPa.

-Been a while since the last time I stepped into hospital.  Had to go to ER for some stomach flu/food related problem…   I got 2 bags of “dian di” plus a shot on my butt cheek.  On the bright side, this is such a nice way to loze weight…. 

I was told to call Dr. S the next day to do a follow up. (ER doctor assigned me to this Dr. S)

Me: Hi I am looking for Dr. S…

Some girl: Hi, who is calling…

Me: …. Jeremy Y, i was told to do a follow up with Dr. S…

Some girl: er.. where are you calling from…

Me: er…… 

- thinking (I am calling from Hanover Park, IL? Well I never said I am calling for commercial purpose…)

Some girl: Like… where are you calling from..

Me: ”er…   I visited your ER the night before… I am a patient calling to do a follow up w/ Dr. S”

Some girl: Do we have your info in the system?

WTF?

Me: YES, I VISITED YOUR ER THE NIGHT BEFORE, SO I THINK YES ?

Some girl: Are you a new patient?

Me: er….  yes/no?  I visited your ER the night before?!  (Does ER visit count or I am still considered as a new patient?)

Some girl: hrmmm Dr. S is no longer taking new patients….

Me: ok… this ER doctor assigned me to her, so I don’t know.

Some girl: ahhhh you see,  Dr. S is no longer taking new patients…..

*silence* 

and she hung up on me.  Damn W.F. Hospital…..

- GOW2 ownz, it’s been a while since I actually finished a game… 

- MVP qing ren is awesome.  If I knew about this drama i would have been a bigger fan for 5566……  woot…

- Florida was pretty nice.  For the first time of my life, I finally went to a Disney….

- Taiwan work/trip was nice as well.  I got to stay in Taichung for most of the trip and few days in Taipei.  As usual food was delicious.  Just like the yr before, I took shiet load of pictures…. Pretty much documented everything I ate…. Maybe I will post some later…   Too bad I was very busy so I really didn’t do much except eating.  However it was nice to see my sister & her small apartment lol.  Thanks to everyone who bought me food, including this factory 老闆娘 who told their 小妹 to buy me some 鹽酥雞.  Some nice TaiChung people I have met this trip.  And NO, I didn’t go to 金錢豹……. although where I stayed was within walkable distance….

- Aloe drinks are awesome.  Peach, Mango, original flavor, you name it.  Go try them people….

- need to drop 10 lb….
