Yesterday I had my first pizza with anchovies. It was a bit too salty for my taste, but I can appreciate the departure from the standard salty italian meats and cheese.
Speaking of food, it looks like Alex at the Wynn, which from my understanding was one of the only good high class restaurants in Vegas, is closing on the 15th of this month. Dammit. They said that they Wynn was turning it into an event space. WTF. So they're not even going to open up a new restaurant? Bah.
On the other hand, I heard that the new hotel/casino, Cosmopolitan is going to have an ultra exclusive restaurant called "e". It only has six tables in the entire restaurant. The fixed menu is 15-20 small plates for $150+. Hmm..I dunno bout the whole "small plates" thing. I don't want to drop two bills only to leave the restaurant and hit up del taco because I'm still hungry.
Exercise plan is in effect. But I'm going to have exercise tomorrow morning. Ugh.
This blog sucked. I'll try again later.

Reality
Deep down, every asian girl wants to marry a white guy.
Deep down, every asian guy wants to have sex with a white girl.
That's the reality of this world. Deal.

Facebook summed up in a few paragraphs
oh facebook. You were so cool when you first came out and kicked myspace out of the realm of significance. But now you're dumb. and repetitive.
Yes, fb has pretty much become the place for people to keep everyone up to date on what they're doing - or put more directly, a place for people to compare lives - or put more directly than that, a place for people to brag about what they're doing.
Unfortunately, facebook can be summed up in the following:
All facebook is, is:
Status messages:
TODAY I DID THIS AWESOME THING
or
I JUST GOT BACK FROM THIS AWESOME THING
or
I'M DOING THIS AWESOME THING RIGHT NOW WHICH IS AWESOME, BUT I STILL NEED TO STEP AWAY FROM ITS AWESOMENESS TO POST ON FB ON HOW AWESOME IT IS.
And there there's pictures, which are pretty much:
LOOK AT THIS HELLA GOOD FOOD I'M EATING!!!
or
LOOK AT THIS HELLA COOL SCENERY I'M SEEING!!!
or
LOOK AT ME AND MY BF/GF!!! LOOK!!!!
(or more specifically:
LOOK AT MY AND MY BF/GF DRESSED UP!!!
or
LOOK AT ME KISSING MY BF/GF ON THE CHEEK!!!!
or
LOOK AT ME AND MY BF/GF PUTTING OUR HEADS THROUGH THOSE THINGS AT AMUSEMENT PARKS WHERE THERE ARE HOLES FOR PEOPLE'S HEADS ABOVE CARTOON BODIES!!
)
Unfortunately, facebook is an addiction. How else can you keep up with the hundreds of past acquaintances that you have?
New Year's resolution - reduce amount of time on facebook and then eventually delete profile.

Live with your parents forever
I've been in my new place about 4 months now. It's nice to have a place to call my own, but i actually kind of miss living with my parents. For one thing, it's hella cheaper. I never though I would be spending this much on groceries! Another thing, it was nice to come home to a meal rather than having to come home and cook one - though I will say I'm starting to enjoy cooking. The last thing was it was nice living with people. Living on your own takes some real getting used to. It's extremely quiet, and there are some days when (working from home) if it wasn't for meetings, I wouldn't talk to a single person. Some days it's nice because I can get work done and concentrate. Other days it's pretty depressing. Finally, it's just nice to be able to spend so much time with your parents.
On the other hand, living with your parents is living with your parents. And by the time you're 30, it's time to move out. Plus, at that age, it's about time you get out of your parents hair so they dont have to worry about supporting you.
Honestly, there's a lot I want to do with this place, but that takes a good amount of money. So I gotta wait. Or win the lottery.
So that's my message to everyone. Live with your parents and stay happy and rich forever.
Went back to the gym. Wow. I've really let myself go. I think i might sign up for a run (maybe the urbanathlon again), or possibly do team in training. Some extra motivation never hurt.
In regards to my last post, I would say that if you read it, you might as well just not try to get what I'm trying to say. A few people have commented on it, and everyone has been completely off with what they thought I was trying to say. Just dont worry about it.

"Get busy living or get busy dying. That's goddamn right"
Still looking for a purpose. For a reason.
Been thinking a lot about life. When life allows you too much time to think, you tend to overthink things. You eventually come across questions that are impossible to answer. Questions that can drive you to the past the point of frustration.
Have I made a mark on this world? Am I making a difference somehow? Were my life to come to an unfortunate end, would I be forgotten in a couple months?
I gotta get out there and find more stuff to do with my life. There's got to be more than this, and I don't mean just friendships and social stuff. There has to be more, or will continue to question to the value of what I'm doing with my life.
Life is short, and it scares me to no end that once our time comes to an end, that there's nothing after that. The idea of an afterlife, or even some kind of consciousness, is at the most most a gamble. I believe that religions came up with an answer as to what happens when you die in order to calm the masses and of course, to get people to join their religion and add to the collection box. What if, in fact, you simply cease to exist. No consciousness, no thoughts. Nothing, you're simply gone. Forever. This very idea frightens me to my very core.
With that fear, every day that goes by where I question what value I have made makes me more and more frustrated. I'll find the answer eventually though. I know I will.

dammit.
I know, I know. you're probably thinking that this blog is done.
The fact is, I've been extremely stressed lately. Work has been kicking my ass. Been looking for more out of life, but fallen short. The justification and attempts to keep myself afloat just really aren't cutting it these days. On the contrary, these probably serve to push me under the flow of everything even more so.
At some point, I really wanted to turn my life around. Make some changes. Go in a different direction. But the more I want to do that, the more I see how hard/impossible it is.
you really want something to show you that you're worth it. (To make it clear, I'm not talking about a relationship). I'm talking about something in life that keeps you grounded. Something that lets you know that if you were to die tomorrow, that who you were wouldn't disappear from everyone's minds in a few months.
You can't expect your perspective of your life to improve by big events and going out and stuff. That's just medicating yourself. It's the things inbetween that needs to count for something. The unsaid items. The general taste of one's life.
I don't expect or think it's possible for anyone to understand what I'm getting at here.
My apologies. I'll try to write something with a bit more humor in the near future. On the other hand, I feel like writing this kind of perspective stuff is actually a bit refreshing.
