Long Time To Reflect

Long time no see, blogging world.

You know, I forgot how calming and reflective blogging is for me. These days I tend to write big emails to friends / family where I rant one way or another. But its not the same.

Its been a long time since I've written here extensively. My original plans was to go start a professional blog, but that was shot out of the water. I want to get back into it, and also do another blog dedicated to food.

Who am I kidding? I cant even handle a single personal blog, let alone have three.

But thats my life right now... variables spinning round n round.

Work (obviously i judge my life by it) has morphed into this weird beast I'm trying to tame. I've got forces prying me apart, and I'm not even sure what I'm made of yet. I'm reading this book about career choices, and so far I've found out, I think I want to be a Sales Engineer. Which could be consulting. Or not.

Love? What is love? Baby dont hurt me. So true. I think I'm trying to rectify the scorched earth policy I had on the love front. Unfortunately, casualties have been high and I've destroyed much of myself.

Today I was talking to a manager. He was telling me how I should look after myself before trying to look after the client. That being said, I think I've put an emphasis on making others happy. And for myself, I'm just living life day to day.

To be honest, I've entertained the thought of suicide. Not seriously for any reason. I just thought, why dont I just suddenly turn right and end it all. Then I thought, why bother? Thats kinda sad.

I think the only reason why I thought of it is cause I'm bored. And I dont go through with it, cause I might even more bored on the other side.

But I really dont know myself anymore. I thought I did. I think thats why I need to start blogging again. Or maybe I can start drinking. Thats always fun. Wait, cant do that, alocholism is bad.

See what I mean? I'm looking for outs. Then I have morality come in and bite my ass. My favorite saying remembers the same - Morality is holding me back. I would either be dead or on top of the world right now if i wasnt moral.

I opted for an aggressive hair style. A faux hawk. Maybe I should kick some ass.

I do have a punching bag. I think I'll use it right now.

I feel like i have primal urges that have been repressed. I love the feeling of hitting something, and I love the feeling of biting and gnawing. I love the feeling of being chased. But I love the feeling of running something down even more.

Oh well, I've written enough. To the bag i go.

Emotional Sucker

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/347641_medals17.html

Just a nice article on a daughter finally receiving the medals that her father earned in WWII when he died without ever meeting his daughter.

Not terribly world-moving... but it made me happy and nearly-tearful. It was terribly important to the daughter, and it seemed only right. It doesnt affect my life whatsoever and time just keeps rolling by.

So why did I feel heartache? Damn. I hate being a sucker.

50 hours

Salary, to me, sometimes feels like slavery

When you're paid by the hour, your time is precious...
When you're paid by the project, your productivity is paramount...
But when you're paid by the year, they're just trying to make the most of your labor...

Or so it seems. hahahah

I'm sometimes jealous of the service economy... how a person can just stand, smile and give people food, and make a very decent living. Flexible schedule with comparable pay.

I guess I'm in it for the long haul

And yes, 50 hours isnt that much. Especially when you're pulling 60.

In Mourning

I just found out my second-cousin died from drowning in 3 fucking meters of water. Fucking retarded way to go...

She was always the best of her class. Had an easy smile on her face and never caused drama at the family reunions. Was 27 and a doctor. Damn, she was smart, and brilliant at what she did.

Then she goes off to take diving lessons. First time in the sea and it fucks up. I dont have the details, but drowning in 3 meters of water is not right. I mean, its three meters!!!

I dont think anybody is to blame. And of course theres no point trying to. I'm upset of course. Its a mixture of sadness, disbelief, and anger.

So many retards out there wasting their life. My cousin becomes a doctor, devotes her life to extending others, and she passes away at 27... barely two years out of med school. WTF!

I would ask God is there any justice. But I don't think I will understand any answer. Just pissed off at the waste of life.

Too much death. Its gaining up to me. I guess every three-four years something like this happens. I remember, grandpa, uncle, uncle, yap, grandma, random guy on spring break, and now cousin. I'm always saddened but not upset enough to cry. Why?

I would devote this post to my cousin. But to be honest, I dont know enough about her to say anything worthy as a testimony. She was a good kid, there are plenty who aren't. Its not about me, but I'm pissed and sad.

Pissed cause I cant do anything about it. I cant console my family. I cant save her. I just sit back and listen to the news. It hurts cause it didnt have to happen. It hurts because she was my blood.

It plain sucks. I am honest enough ot say, the bigegst thing, I'm in mourning but I cant do anything about it. FUCK!

Oh, I just remembered my grand-aunt. Damn, she must have so much heart-ache. I must pray for the family.
