I grab on to his wrists from behind and hold on for dear life as he throws me to the ground….
So begins another day in Aikido….
I should have known that it was going to fall off or get broken.
But I had to have it on me somewhere, somehow.
Maybe I should have tied it around my ankle…
Naw, they would have saw that.
So I tied it around my belt.
Maybe I should have kept it in the front.
Naw they would have saw that too
So around the back it went.
In hindsight, if I would have learned to roll properly
The necklace would probably still be around my neck today
Instead of in pieces on the floor and in the paper towel
that I put the pieces that I could find on the floor.
Has sad as I am over this, I have no time to mourn over it.
It’s just some necklace, right. Besides I have school classes to fail, right.
I wonder if it is a sign of some kind. Thanks to my depressive state
I see signs in everything from tea leaves to the pieces of crap that floats in the toilet.
**sigh**
Back in the 6th or 7th grade (damn , that was back in Korea) we had some kind of assembly or something where we learned to juggle. It was only silk scarves, but I was able to juggle a lot of them, I think it was 8 or more. I was also able to juggle the beanbags. Moving forward to the present, a couple of days ago at work, me and the guys are trying to juggle tape balls. Pete and Tim can get a couple going for a sec or two. But I cant even juggle one. (I would throw it up and then I would always miss it, or I would run into something.) I wonder if this is a sign for the way my life is going…….

Work is going O.K. so far. The Monster C2F order is done, or at least my part. I thought that I had to go through all 300+ itms to see if their UPC were in the system, but my boss has already immersed herself in that deathwish. Yay! So now I will join Peter in the computer museum and finish the inventory. Mostly it’s all Apple IIC – IIE stuff. Fun stuff; reminds me of the software outlet where I worked at.

Another monday and another work/school week. I get Friday off, but I think that I am going to spen most of it catching up on reading and cleaning.
thought. I think I have a midterm in my reformation class tomorrow. Damn. And I still need to do my Beijing midterm tonight. **sigh**
I have to catch wrestling tonight. Not that too many people care, but the WWF bought WCW (another wrestling promotion). Basicly that means that the WWF is a virtual monopoly on television. The good thing is that there is the possibility for some dream matches. I know that wrestling is fake, but I believe that everybody should have a guilty pleasure or two. A little something that is kinda bad, but feels so good.
Not too many people posted last night. Maybe Sunday is a slow night for posting and this is the first time that I’ve noticed. I’m so lazy and just read other people’s friends list. Usually I stick to Serraph and Apriljoy’s and then I’ll do a random journal or two.
**sigh** There is this ugly order that I need to work on. It looks like an all day job and it looks like it’s going to have tons of mistakes. I better get started now. Blah…
It is such a beautiful day outside though. When the guys get back, there will def. be a stickball game going on.

**yawn** I was waiting for Suzanne to get online, but it looks like she has come and gone already. Anyway, I had a good weekend; didn’t go to Monterey, but still had fun. I might fill in the details tomorrow at work.
Finally got the financial aide check deposited, so this week I need to search and purchase the parts to my new computer. The big question is what kind of case I want to get. There is a selection of cases at Color Cases. If anybody wants to help me out, they can go to the site and looks at the cases at tell me which case they think that I should buy. Just leave a comment with the name of the case you like the best.
O. K. The roommate is not here, so I am going to play some music while I go to sleep. I am exhausted. blah….

Whew…that was fun. The last game of the expo stickball league. I lost, but I was getting tons of hits. I just need to get the ball over the fence now. My pitching also needs some work. It sucked that the wind was blowing and the tape balls were lighter than usual. But I know that I have the worse pitching out of the three of us. I also suck at hitting, I’m just lucky when it comes to that. Acutally after the first two swings at bat, I had to call a time out cause I was peeling skin on my thumb. Damn that stung like a mother fucker. I def. need to find the gloves now.
Well, everything is pretty much done here at the warehouse. The guys forgot some stuff, so I think that I’m going to take off to deliver it and take a quick shower before Suzanne gets here,

Taking a break from work. It’s been a pretty good day so far. Me and the guys have gotten alot of shit done here today. When they get back, it’ll be game 3 of the expo season here at Egbert Field. Tim lost to Peter 5-4 today. I’m hoping I can get a win here to come in 2nd for the standings.
The only thing is that I am feeling really sore and tired. I think it is the Cafe Cooler from 7-11 that I had this morning that is making me tired. The Cafe Cooler is like a Baskin Robbins Cappicino Blast, except the Cafe cooler is more coffee tasting and is better blended. I was nursing that all morning and now i’m getting the sleepies. Maybe I should take a nap before the guys get here.
Well, the firs night with the new roommate was O.K. I have to get into that whole -sharing a room with someone else- mode. I should take pictures of all the guys now that the apt is filled. I wonder if he was pissed at me this morning when I was getting ready for work. I wasn’t loud or anything, but I was moving around and stuff. **sigh**
I’m having dinner with Suzanne and her mom tonight and then we are going to Monterey this weekend. WhooHoo!!!!! The only thing is that it is suppose to rain this weekend. Oh well, if it does, I’m sure that we can find something to do in the hotel (heh, heh). We will be back on Sunday to catch the Oscars and to watch drunk ass Joan Rivers and her no-talent daughter Melissa. God, I miss Shawn and Marie; we used to watch Joan on E! every show and just be rolling in laughter. I hope that they are doing O.K.
Been trying to talk to my parents all this week, but I keep on missing them. Talked to Eric so I know that everything is O.K. I guess I’ll try next week.
I still have my Beijing stuff to do and then next week I have a midterm in my Reformation Class 😛 I’m glad that I have next friday off. I probably still spent it with Suzanne, but I will probably spnet the day catching up on reading.
O.K. the guys are back, time to get ready for some stickball. God, I love this job.

I finally have a roommate. It totally sucked cause I have been having one of my usual good days. I got my Reformation paper done (All 7 pages of crap.) And I was going to try the imposiible and get my Beijing paper done. Oh well, I’ve just decided that paper isn’t going to get done until next week maybe. **Sigh** I wanted to spend the weekend with Suzanne locked up in my room. NOw, I know for sure that we are going either to Monterey or Santa Cruz. Or maybe to Great America. Either way we are getting off this crazy machine called life; for this weekend at least.

Bored at work right now…I have work that I should be doing; but I’m not. Instead, I’m playing Six Degrees of LiveJournal. It’s a game that I made up of my own. I click on the random link and then I try to get to someone on Livejournal thought that person’s friends list. There are three levels of dificulty. Usually, I play with April; a good number of people are linked to her and she is linked to other popular LJ’ers. Then sometimes, I play with Serraph, without going through April. That is harder than April, but not too much so. Every once in awhile, I try myself. For myself, it can be to any of my journals and they don’t have to been on a friends list, if they have posted that is enough.
This last round I did was pretty good. I went from someone who’s user number was in the 70,000’s to Matt, who was user #109. 10 fuckin 9. His journal went back to 1999. Damn. Then there was magicwoman who has 605 fiends listed. Damn….talk about just trying to read that thing; I’m sure she filters. From there it was easy to get to April and to Suzanne.
Anyway, I should get back to work.

And partly, I have been busy with things in the real world, like school, work, and a relationship with Serraph. But partly I have been avoiding LJ trying to ge t some distance between it for awhile. That lasted all of a few hours; let’s face it, I am a LJ Whore big time.
I trying decide on where I going, in regards to my life and everything surrounding it. That seems to be the general theme of most of the people on LJ. We look at the journals of other people, some who are like us, and try to gleam ideas and suggestions from them. We make friendship that are strong and true; we also get into fight that rival the arguments that we get into in real life.
With myself, I a slowly getting use to the idea that my life is going to be based around Serraph. It is a hard thing to do, esp. when the universe used to rotate around you. I am orbiting around her, but the orbit isn’t stabilized yet. But even though there are times that it is rocky, I still belive that we will one day have our synchonis orbits around each other for life.
But back to this journal. I’m not sure what I want to do with it. I actually re-activated my other two journals; tygreyesand tygger_sf. Eventually, I will be moving back to tygreyes. i am slowly building the tygreyes empire for myself. Unfortunaltely, I gave up tygreyes@yahoo.com and tygreyes@hotmail.com. Somebody had already snatched them up. Damn. I should never had deleted those accounts. It’s not like I would use them that often. I would probably just send my junk mail to them. **sigh** but still, it would make everything flow nice. I did register tygreyes.com; it’s linked to my geocities site right now. But I am looking for a web host to built my site on.
But I am getting off centered. I don’t know how I want to post on this journal. Do I want to just post stupid stiff and just ramble about nothing? Do I want to post what I’ve eaten? (I actually liked doing that, cause I could look back and see just what I was eating.) Or do I want to be retro and introspective about myself?
And then there is the question of my audience? Before I had enough traffic through April’sand Suzanne’sjournals since they had linked me as friends. Should I care that other people are reading this and should I cater to them? Then there is the question or hiding stuff, or making entries private. I kinda have a problem with it in that if it is private, then why post it. And I know that there are things that you might want some people to see and not others. I guess my thing is that the times that I have tried to make something private, I botched it up and it ended up causing more problems.
Hmmm….always more questions than answers. I kinda have an idea of how I want to handle this, but I am going to wait awhile. Partly because I still have too much school work for me to handle. And partly because I want to get some kind of web page done (as much as I like the Badz Maru theme going on Geocities.) And then partly to get myself ready to release my thoughts out on an unsuspecting world. I have so many things that I want to say, for things about myself, to Suzanne, to world events, to stuff that has happened to me on LJ and about other people on LJ. But I think for the moment, I want all of these thoughts to simmer in my head a little more.
