Runny Nose

My nose is running weird again. A couple weeks ago I took a flu shot in accordance with work requirements. But, I'm noticing that I get sick more often now...more than USUAL.

What's wrong with the world today? Where do I begin. As this is a topic that is not easy to dive into, there's nothing I can really say. The basic way to develop a reasoning behind it all is that the world has rotated off its access.

Where am I in all this chaos? Will chaos overwhelm those around me? Will this stage in life be a day to day thing. I don't know.

2007 is a month nearly down. Work somewhat told me that I'm approved. But not just yet, but most likely. "Night at the Museum" was an excellent movie.

I wish I could write a song to you

...sometimes it just doesn't work out that way. Some wish to look one way for their goals when they should be looking in a different direction. Either way, it all works out in the end, eventually. I went off course on what I really wanted to write about. But that's ok, I can change the topic now.

Writing about it makes me want to tell the whole world. The Internet is the whole world, just depends on who receives the information. You receive my information of 1's and 0's. You also receive my binary code. Everyone is going to receive, so here it is. I love it so much. I pray for it, I do favors for it. There so much I'd do, I just want it to realize what I do. And guess what, it does realize, and appreciate my moves. I hope everyone will find their it.

To find it, go to it.com on the server 129d3kd.

Really Confused?

I've been put down. Usually, I would brush it off, but this time I can't. Maybe it is true what was told. What can I do? I live my life, I think about the things, the people, the treasures that are bestowed upon me. It is my fault for my actions. I can't change the past, but I can learn from it. I'm bothered and hurt with what I heard. I deserve the truth, and the truth hurts. You read my like a transparent book.

It's easy for people to cheer me up. It doesn't take much. But, on my behalf, why does it take every ounce of strength to do that in return. Maybe suppressing my emotions again is the answer. I need that sense of explosive emotional reaction. If I get mad, I should get mad. How do I know if someone truly wants me if they don't know how to overcome my anger. All I know, tonight, I am weak. Weak-minded. Emotionally weak. Physically weak. My list of issues is growing.

Right now, what was told to me not more than fifteen minutes ago has been forgotten. I've brushed it off. Like I said, you simply call back and tell me something sweet, and I'm back to normal. Like a flash, my emotions have been restored. Why am I like this? I'm either extremely happy or extremely sad. And when you don't see me, I'm in the middle. Yay!

note: 2007 is going to be...good.



ps. I hate holiday texts, unless you're in my network. Just frickin' CALL ME.

Flashback

12/21 - Sharks game with the Ulo, shutout by the Stars.
12/22 - work (Dipping Contest); 1st Baliktad Christmas!!!!
12/23 - stayed in.
12/24&25 - Christmas w/ Family
12/26 - Bear-Y Favorite Christmas exchange. & Super Bad Day.
12/27to30 - Sick.

The past few days of been really up and down. At this time, I just wanted to make sure what I did during this week off of work. As you can see, I really didn't get a chance to do a lot of stuff. Yes, it does suck, mainly because I was sick, but it does happen. I've been thinking about someone lately because I was afraid I would lose the importance of that ongoing adventure.

Sometimes one can forget that just because you hang out with someone a lot, doesn't necessarily mean you're with that person. I want to be with you, I tell you everyday. But, I want happiness to surround you. Maybe, just because I know I'm single, means it's easier to let go of me. Maybe I'm just being super foolish. I can't be spoiled this time. I can only be patient. Patient for you.

Before the days speak out 2007, I'm bound to have a clean room.

Motto from jG

Your happiness comes before mine. If I dare live my life this way, so be it. That's how it was, is and will be.

7 more days

I came into work to see this website come up first (from Aim.com):

Horoscope-Cancer
You may feel uncomfortable with all the attention these days, for you don't necessarily seek the spotlight. You might as well accept the fact that you are quite effective now and everyone will notice. If your intuition is telling you that something isn't right, remember to trust your inner voice. Intense emotions are currently motivating you and others now, and it may feel overwhelming as you try to discern what's most important. You are drawing in a wide spectrum of feelings. If you are afraid of being inundated, have faith in the process of transformation instead of withdrawing into denial.

meaning: My status as follower has diminished into a more positive role, dare I choose to accept it. Words and actions could be said, but will they matter, and will the affects induce my emotions. What's to come from the jG in 2007? You'll see.

This weekend was meant to stay home and bum it for 48 straight hours. The weekend turned into a parking bonanza at both Great Mall and Valley Fair. Oh! People who stop in the middle of a directional path (at the mall) are now on my pet peeve list. When I stop, I look around, and move if someone's moving my way.

Shopping isn't my favorite thing to do in the world, especially during Christmas season. But you got to do it. Sometimes you have to do it with someone special where any emotions can be risen. It happens. So, I say, buy online, it's easier. Girl shopping sucks!

Have you ever wanted or craved a certain food so bad, but found out you could not grasp? I did. This weekend. Argh!

Trying To Forget

It's hard to convert someone back into a friend when you cared about her so much...at one point. I feel the need to defend myself when someone attacks me with what happened in my past. I admit, I hate being doubted or proven wrong. I have pride in my beliefs. Can't I live without someone bringing up my past. I'm going to just stop and not say anything in that direction. From this point, it's only what I care for now, it's only who I love now. And since I'm not afraid to admit, my heart goes out to one person, and yes, her name is Favorite (wink!). Being asked to change my thoughts a few times, my words will only allow me to keep what's hidden longer than thought of. I care for the well-being of my friendships and relationships. My past is only a memory, a photograph made simple in my mind. Saying before thinking has always been a flaw, but it's a lot better than it was before. Thinking what you want to say can be interpreted many ways. If you need me to reiterate, just ask. I'm not complicated, and I don't expect complications in my life. I want/need only a few things, and one main priority is love. I'm in love with you Leclami. No one else.

note: Trusting me is easier than you think.

Being Away

It makes me want you more. It makes home look so far away. There are things I'd rather do than sit in a room. In the arms of one who is miles and miles away sucks. Away from my family, away from a comfort level where appreciation comes from the heart.

Although being on the road has it's perks, I can do without sometimes. It would be nice if someone came with me, but that just doesn't look like it'll happen; at least, not anytime soon.

As I sit in my room, I wonder what I would be doing if I was home. Home in my apartment. Actually, I'll most likely be packing up my stuff at work getting ready to leave.

Taco Hell

According to my feedback, no one cares about what isn't close to them. For instance, the e.coli news on the east coast. My friends care nothing of the sort. But wait, I'm on the east coast. I don't usually eat fast food on the road though, unless it's the ONLY food there is, and sometimes that's the ONLY food there is. But, not this time.

So, is Taco Bell at fault for the food they serve? Sometimes it is, but I don't know what to think. Sometimes outbreaks just aren't found. Just know that the victims don't deserve this. Let's hope they make it through the hard times.

The news is my interest. Not world news, but local news and some nationwide. My health is a big part of my interest group, where I find myself looking at nutrition facts. BUT...I don't eat healthier, I just eat less and go for walks/jogs. Other than that, the world still revolves around me. teehehe.

I'm in New Jersey, sitting at my hotel room desk, watching the Simpson's on the television next to me. This past weekend was fun. I went to my first San Jose State football game. Maybe it's the motivation of a winning/bowl season. Or, maybe because someone asked me to go with them. It was super uber fun. Can't ask for anything more...right now. ha! The Sharks won a hard-fought game against the Redwings. -sigh- I enjoy spending time with the people I love. You guys are the best!!!

------------------------------------------------
Now a woman who'll kiss on a very 1st date,
Is usually a hussy,
And a woman who'll kiss on the second time out,
Is anything but fussy,
But a woman who'll wait 'till the 3rd time around,
Head in the clouds, feet on the ground,
She's the girl he's glad he's found,
She's his Shipoopi.

Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi,
The girl is hard to get.
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi,
But you can win her yet.

Walk her once just to raise the curtain,
Then you walk around twice and you make for certain.
Once more in the flower garden,
She will never get sore if you beg her pardon.

Do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, do,
Si, la, sol, fa, mi, re, do.

Squeeze her once when she isn't lookin'.
If you get a squeeze back that's fancy cookin'.
Once more for a pepper-upper,
She will never get sore on her way to supper,

Do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, do, si, do,

Now little ol' sal was a No-gal,
As anyone could see,
Look at her now, She's a Go-Gal,
Who only goes for me,

Squeeze her once when she isn't lookin'.
If you get a squeeze back that's fancy cookin'.
Once more for a pepper-upper,
She will never get sore on her way to supper,

Do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, do, si, do,

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi,
The girl is hard to get,
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi,
But you can win her yet.

(Musical/Dance Break)

Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi,
The girl is hard to get.
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi,
But you can win her yet.

You Can Win Her Yet!


Shipoopi

Dear You-Bear,

Although I'm thousands of miles away, I'm still constantly thinking of how good it would feel to be there, holding you, laughing with you, being made fun of by you, you are my "vacation". Remember that I will always be your pudgy honey bear. Heart you from now 'til you no longer want it.

Love,

Me-Bear

Heroes

Great show, great drama, great super powers. So we know the origin of all the character powers, except for the roles they haven't showed yet. We know who this Sylar guy is and why he's so interested in getting brains. Wow. What a great series to watch. I'm impressed with this show.


I heart you for all the ways possible. For the fun times, mean times, serious times, silly times, and the times when there is no more time. The hugs are so meaningful. -sigh-

In Shame

You've made another mistake that risks the present and future happiness. I do stupid things. I admit that thinking before doing or saying is the general correct way of doing things. Do you like me less? The answer that haunts my loving ways is fading. I am inconsiderate. I'm sorry. Forgive me.

Console Transactions

Would you believe the prices of video game consoles nowadays? Well, according to the market price, we're all saving money because business like Nintendo and Sony make money by the bulk sale, giving reason to lowering their prices slightly. From a couple sources, the Playstation 3 is priced at $599 for the upgraded model, where the components for the actual device is pushed at nearly $800. (Disclaimer: just a rumor, but probably truth behind this.) At this rate, Sony will lose $200/ps3, unless their market sails soar above expected. And guess what, they're selling, but also holding back on a lot of markets. Why would they do such a thing? Well, this is the point of this entry. At work, I was browsing ebay and craigslist sites and realized that we all have unlicensed business proposals for addicting consumers.

Advertisement: Why stand in line at midnight when you could find the same exact product on ebay, FOR DOUBLE THE PRICE, even Triple.

So surreal that I would NEVER consider getting raped by this type of behavior. Is this the reason why Sony Gaming decided to hold back on their product? If I had the chance to buy a ps3 or Wii, I would keep it. But right now, I'm currently playing my ps2's Final Fantasy XII and soon to be Socom: Combined Assault. I look forward to Legend of Zelda's Twilight Princess, but let me finish these games.

Back to the topic, if consumers stuck to consumers and not cheating business partners, if you could call them that, true GAMERS would have their consoles. Ebay has been doing that with shoes and consoles for a while now. Anyway, here we go, with the world of tomorrow, making money to the suckers of yesterday.

This is to...

...Camille. Hi, that's it. lol...Don't call me Brown Stallion, Ted. These...are the thoughts...of my day. Yayyayayayayayya...kicking legs up and down. yayaya. lol. hockey hockey hooooockey. i'm going down to south park. howdy neighbor. i was thinking who my bestman would be at my wedding. i believe it'll probably be...i'm laughing at the Amp'd commercial where the father is teaching his son to ride a bike. little do we know is that he made a ramp for him...and fell off the side and feel on his head. haven't seen it? i did, and i laughed. Camille didn't though. This is the weirdest post ever...Delete it. No. Cookies are good. So, my car gets 38.2mpg. Kyle is trying to save his bike and gets hurt doing it. Ok. bye.

Car Name

I've been pondering what I'm going to name my car. Some of the names were Cookie, Elisha, Sheila, Josh, MyCar, Camiry and Qwerty. I yet to come up with a name for my "baby".

Since we're on the topic of names, I am the Brown Stallion a.k.a Snuggly Bear a.k.a _ _ _ _ _ Puppy. With these names listed, I need to come up with something better than...Sweetie. Sheesh.

Happy One Month Birthday to my car. Still in one piece...3 gas fills later...1701 miles. We shall see. Welp...yeah I said welp, nothing to update right now. Love you all.

Inevitable Happiness

Sometimes you can foresee how your life is going to turn out. Maybe not by the powers that be, but by the people that grab a hold of your life. Your friends, your family, your enemies; they all make what we develop what we call a personal lifestyle. The thoughts and outcomes that is unseen is part of the weird path we call life. I've gained more than I've lost, obviously. As my life ages, my losses tend to rise and gaining is more of a hassle than anything. Don't take it the wrong way, giving up is not an option, I just think struggle may have a time limit. From a few days to maybe years, I tend to just deal with what's in front of me.

For example, a job is somewhat easy to come by, assuming the correct credentials are at hand. A resume with all the right "juices and berries" is what gets you in the door, for maybe a mediocre job. Remember that word...Job. And then there's job applications for employment that a lot of us have done in the past. In my decade of job hunts, Gymboree, Safeway.com, and Office Depot brought in the income. Even when I was positioned with workstudy at my college institute, a job is what you have that brings in money for what you want/need now, not what you can save. You can't simply want a car and go out and buy it, that takes planning and research...unless you're wealthy, and we know a majority of this world is two cents short of that, and then some. Even worse, a home is needed in the future because independency is what we strive to be...away from the parent trap. Unless, of course, you're the parent looking at fatherhood or motherhood.

The tricky part of life is knowing the ins and outs behind a career-based title. You can join a retail job and hope for promotion and success, but that may take years. Why not put all focus on getting that education, getting that diploma or experience, and pushing forward to be at top potential. Oh wait! We're all lazy. I was lazy for 3 years. I just accepted the fate that a career wasn't part of my forte. Thing is, I didn't try hard enough. I was wrapped with a spoiled life where everything was set on my plate...not anymore. I can live my life independently, but income needs to come in sometime, and in huge quantities.

I'm happy. I have a income, a new car, a new home, and a woman I can hold with love and admiration. Am I still spoiled? A little, but I've earned what I have.

iWoot

First off...

Screw the Yankees, Dodgers, and Padres!!!
I guess...go A's. Bring some hope back to the Bay Area.

And for tomorrow, down with the Raiders. Go 49ers. Forever SF fan.

And for my co-favorite team in the World...Nabby was sooo ON. Sharks 2-0-0-0.
49ers are going to win the rest of their games this season.

So, today, we played in the Smash Softball tournament...in the "For fun" league, which had only two teams. Lost both games 15-2 and 12-4. The second game we were in the lead 4-3. Woohoo. And then the 5th and 6th innings came. ha! You see the score.

Fun day of Sports for me and the Blueballs.

iCam

You ever have those weekends where you're not well-prepared on what's going to happen, but it does, you don't want it to end. I did. This past Saturday started off well and ended great. This day made me feel a little bit more older and responsible. A great feeling when you're at the car dealership ordering your new car. Like I said before, a little bit older and so forth because they didn't have my style and color. Here's a glimpse of the new 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid.


Grey Metallic with Option #2 Package. Yummy.

Why this car? Because it's sleep and this new model looks classy...like the Lexus. Plus, I drive enough where I need milage. Just think, about a month ago I was shopping for a 2007 Scion tC, which costed half of what I'm getting now, but when the choices are made, you get what you've earned.

So, instead of waiting four to six months for the pre-order, I only have to wait two to three weeks. Lucky me, sometimes. I wanted to make more money before I start making payments. Anyway, that's life as a grown-up.

Later on, we planned to have our first pseudo-date at the place viewed below. I'm not going to say, but it's also not that hard to figure it out. It was incredibly windy, but she makes me happy, no matter what the weather.


There was a wedding in one of the huts there, but the guy there would bet $6,000 on football and no less. Ha! So hardcore. Sheesh. After that picture, we drove around and realized this place was dead and wouldn't be surprised if we saw zombies roaming the streets and buildings. Scary, so we left. Took us awhile to find Mitchell's Ice Cream from the opposite direction, but we eventually did...and parked in the 10 Minute Zone right in front. Awesome! Dark and chunky!!!

Dear Cam;
I've realized that there's no person other than yourself that I'd want to be closer to. With all the little trips we've taken in the past, the big one's just take my breath away when I'm with you. Until our next adventure, I heart you.

Love,
Joshgumbi

note: the Icemen won Saturday night to conclude such a wonderful day. See previous entry for more info.
