⇒ here we go again

my sibling's at it again...putting me in a corner where I'm with no option but to say 'yes'. Bullsh!t I can say 'no'...you've forced my hand...there's no way I can't say 'yes'...and this is supposed to improve relations between us.

Why am I always coming second to my siblings? I'm so sick of this! Car trouble? Oh, let's just give away my car privileges...money problems? Oh let's just borrow his hard earned summer cash...Moving to another city and back? Hey, let's force him to drive and move all your sh!t back and forth! It's not like he's gonna enjoy his spare time or anything....

There's favors, then there's limits...and I have my limits, man...D A M N !

Quit hogging our TV anyways...go home and watch sh!tty reality tv there!

⇒ dad returns

finally got the old man back home yesterday. He'd been hospitalized for 10 full days and nights--it was a really serious head injury.

Anyhoo, he's home and resting now. It really kills me that a stupidly simple accident could have such wide reaching consequence and repercussions. Again, I have to ask: why do bad things happen to good people?

So things at home are dramatically changing--I know and understand that, but it really pisses me off to hear it from some other ppl, especially if they've been a jackass and consider themselves morally sound to pass judgment on my lifestyle. I may not be many things, most of all accomplished, but I'm still a better human than thou!

⇒ happiness, sadness

friday: ran--don't remember the quality, probably the average, ~2.5km in 20'. Skipped out of work at precisely quitting time because I saw the boss and don't give a flying f#ck she works til midnite. Good on ya. I'm not renumerated the same figures so leave me alone b!tch. Same goes for her lapdog. You want me to work harder? Pay me better, a$$hole.
saturday: ran--don't remember the quality, probably same as friday. ~2.5km in 20'. Do note that the run came after the enormous 24-year feast. I ate 3-4 times what I normally would eat in one sitting, so that couldn't have helped the running.

sunday: i'm both happy and sad...grandparents have gone home to l.a., cali. I'm not sure why i feel the way i do.

no run today.

⇒ misery

friday: Hayley's last day at work...free morning tea, free lunch ('gourmet' pizza). The chick serving us was nice though...'nice'.
Drinks after work...cabana bar kinda sucks, now that i think about it...chat with JDB revealed much...I wonder what he truly thinks of me. I just want his respect and acknowledgment is all...I hold him in such high regard...he's like Mr Miyagi to my Daniel-san.

friday AM: re-arranged/moved stuff around my room. Oh shiz, i didn't realize I had all this 'stuff'. Moving it around was a bad move--it was already in its most efficient configuration. Bad move further compounded by poor planning. Then laziness. So it's a slighgtly tidier (?) mess right now.

saturday: was planning on doing washing, going to the gym, etc. BUT sh!tty weather prevailed. Rained for hours on end...come on Spring, do your thing! Add to that, the late friday finish and I'm in no condition for gymtime.

saturday AM: watched some movies (Zathura ok--what i caught anyways, but jeebus, Mummy Returns is a steaming turdpile!). Stumbled across US Open mens' semifinals. I knew the US Open was on but didn't realize channel 9 would be broadcasting it. Federer triumphed over Djokovic, 3 sets to 1. Nadal in trouble against Murray (2 sets to love, Nadal leading 3rd set). Their play is suspended.

sunday: didn't get enough sleep, owing to tennis, so I'm here at home...lazing. It's not raining but it's friggin' cold and miserable...my aunt not well. Hope she recovers.

⇒ irony, double up

went to Theo's academic prize ceremony today. Straight from work to USYD.
Pros: Bro won award, fast moving ceremony, food and (alcoholic) beverage 'closing ceremony'
Cons: lack of passion and creativity in speech-making zzzzzzzzz

So we got home and I open my letter from USYD--I'm expecting a bill or some student financial statement, but to my surprise I'm going to receive an award!!! There's a full ceremony and everything.

Here's the irony: we just got home from the exact same shindig for science faculty
Here's the double irony: the entire 6 and a bit years I wallow at uni, I get nothing. The very moment I dropout, they throw me an award!

Well I guess I've really made my point now (about work, uni, intelligence, success):
I'm not unemployed, an idiot or a loser. In your face anyone who doubted me!

⇒ sh!tty weather

not even intermittent, micro-mist, regular, irregular, angled, banked, spray, cold, warm rain can dampen my spirits this week!

too good! progress in general: on the job learning is going well; got about 5 big name corporate entities interested in sitting me down for a chat; I'm in good health; feeling good; I'm mostly happy =)

Before, I was listless, now, I'm on the rise.

y-yae!

BTW, happy bday mum

⇒ Apples, Dr L

Apple launched Leopard two days ago...*wow*...I'm still happy with Panfa, but it would be nice to get some widget action happening and use cover flow and quick look...But I'm too tight right now and I don't think Leopard will support Diablo II (which runs in OS 9).

Coinciding with the Apple OS launch is L's final Med school exam. She's done now. Not to jinx her, but we all know she passed and she's pretty much Dr L now. Congratulations L, you deserve everything, even after all the mean and nasty things/ways you've tormented your loved ones over the years, we still wish you the best and are so proud of you!

⇒ infinite crisis

status report:
brother humiliated and wronged for no reason. Little Chicken shit punk ass no-hoper in 86 pegged his precious a water bomb at his noggin. How dare he!?!? Theo's the goddamn future of humanity, and that little shit desecrated him for NO REASON. I was so steamed I was ready to storm that bitch's hole he calls home with my steering wheel lock (which actually isn't mine, it's dad's). Fuck man! I'm so fired up, I'm still thinking of ways to burn his punk ass. Plans to get him dropped in juvenile school where he can get his ass owned by some other fuckwit...get housing commission on his ass...psychologically burn him...my wrath knows little restraint. And yet soft-handed parents want to back off. It's little things like this, which have led to the collapse of society. You can't let ANYONE get away with little things--no matter what age or status. These things escalate and soon enough, the crime becomes a way of life...

both parents still icy with me.

⇒ still no running!

(break: w15d4-->days on break: 109)

no running today, the cold weather and pain in my calf just aren't adding up. I did do cycling for a bit though (totalled 18km in about 30'). Didn't really keep track of any gym or swim progress today, I felt really sluggish from all the meat i consumed on the weekend (chicken, bacon, pork, sausages, kebabs, steak, what-not).

On the job front, I know I'm ready. I want it. I want it now and I want it bad. I guess after dicking around for 5 years, I finally pulled my head out of my ass. It's my belief that you're never too late, just better off early. So I'll try to catch up but at the same time I'll try not to over-exert myself.

On the subject of my sibling, the deception has been uncovered. I may not have studied psych but I don't need to have studied it to know the why of it all. This person thinks they're being so slick yet they make themselves seem incredibly stupid (despite their numerous academic accolades) when they think they have cleanly deceived us. Well, my parents may be fooled but the extended family knows. What treachery is this? To have such dishonor, were this another place, another era, I might be prompted to reclaim our honor. Such an insult. Does my extended family smile at us because they genuinely like us or because they are laughing in our faces at our supposed ignorance? Why would you entrust distant family who dishonored our father for years? Why? Why have you done this? As a result of your treachery and dishonor, I have put certain plans in motion which will in time sever all ties with you. I did not do this to you, you did this to us. In time, you and I will be nothing, not family, not even strangers, and should our paths cross, I would smite you if you were to even consider trying to explain your insolent self. Why and how could you have done this? Loneliness is no excuse, I have been alone for years, yet I have not flouted dishonor in the faces of my strongest allies. I may never forgive or forget this. And to think of all the time and effort I wasted defending your honor, your name and even your image all these years. You may never appear the same in my eyes again. Who are you? I don't know you. And I knew long ago, if we weren't related, I wouldn't even look at a person like you. Am I being clear enough? You did this. You destroyed yourself. We tried and tried to tell you and intervene but your stuborness, naivety and weak will has destroyed you. Too easily influenced by those who can profit from your downfall, you have brought this on yourself. I will no longer be standing in your corner, once our business has concluded, I may never contact you of my own volition. Perhaps then you may know a fraction of the pain your arrogance has caused. Currently, I believe myself to be the only one who knows, and since these are happier times, I will not speak out just yet. You may learn your place just yet.

But break my heart, for I must hold my tongue.

⇒ viet bbq!

(break: w15d3-->days on break: 108)

went to my uncle's (Dad's oldest brother's) bbq yesty arvo. Smoky, meaty, alot of ppl and crazy talk thrown around. All in all, not too bad, but methinks i ate waaaaaay too much. Alot of sugary/alcoholic drink options and not enough neutrals, such as water.

Afterwards we went to 3 more cousins places;

1. my Dad's cousins (a bit of a Hong-ky vibe in a townhouse but a cool heavy bag, speedbag and other bag setup)

2. my Dad's niece#6 (slick 2 story crib with redone interior and balcony)

3. my Dad's niece#7 (a place my mum called 'dream home', which is not an exaggeration, it really is crazy nice, like the kind of place Oprah would profile if she was doing a show on awesome aussie homes with pretty much every detail well thought out).

after that my family decided enough! we rolled back to our hole in the ground, but i tells ya, it's only a matter of months before we have our vengeance! mwahaahahahahahah!

⇒ cousin Long

(break: w13d7-->days on break: 98)

cousin Long came to visit. Spent all day reconnecting with the family. All had a good laugh at the stories and pics from his and Linh's Vietnam sojourn. I took a quick break from it to go gymmin and swimmin. Today, my right calf didn't feel good. I thought I could push through the pain but it progressively bothered me more, so following Andre Agassi's advice, I cut the duration not the intensity. Did 2.41km in 20'00" (onto 3.0km in 26'ish). Totalled 180-ish Cals so that's roughly the same intensity i give my 5km runs. Also did inclined bench press today. Not too bad, managed a couple of sets of 20 and 30 kgs totalling about 1000kgs (i lost count). I'll try 40 and 50kgs next time.

3 days ago...


today...



wtf is up wit sydney weather? this is summer.

⇒ hawt todae

(break: w13d6-->days on break: 97)

Linh's back in oz. I thought there would be alot of shouting and fighting but I guess as soon as you see each other after a long time away from each other, it's all water under the bridge. However, knowing my family, it's only a matter or time (read: days) before the water becomes a flash flood tsunami and breaks the dam of friendship.

gymmed! swimmed! came so close to the sub 40' barrier. Pushed myself pretty hard today...the equivalent of a mental bitch slap. Turned out a 5km in 40'07". I was on track for a 38'-ish 5km run but was a little short of breath. See, I not declining in performance, I improve! Over 330 Cals consumed.

Did vert chest press--total about 400kgs. Not a good day for chest press, in terms of reps or weight. Did vert fly, total about 600kgs, not bad. Not as many reps as other days but a heavier weight setting used. Did vert shoulder press. Pretty good. I think it was a couple of reps of 90lbs, and more reps of less weight. I plan to gym tomorrow.
