…a blog on random thoughts and ideas… ^__^

Whoa! What a weird week! So much happened that I don’t know where to start! Lolz! ^__^

I say its weird coz it had a mix of ups and downs. I won’t focus on the "downs" since they only make me depressed. Let’s just say that they’re my life’s road bumps…unavoidable yet can be overcome.

I’ll just elaborate on the "ups". I can’t say its positive…the correct word would be…hmm…amusing. There’s this two college girls that recently made my shop their favorite hangout. They really standout compared to the other customers. Let’s just say they define the meaning of "fun". It’s one thing that they made my place a photo shoot studio…but what really amuses me most is the way they talk to us. Feeling close? Hahahaha! I don’t even know their names. ^__^ Well it’s good that we have additional regulars, I just hope that their false sense of "closeness" won’t result to them asking us discounts or anything. Lolz! ^o^

A weird thing also happened just yesterday. There was a 5-second "brownout". Then our server program won’t start! Crap! Good thing it was saturday. Only a few people were left that time so I just decided to give the remaining customers an additional 30mins free for the inconvenience and closed up shop for the day to fix the problem. Sigh. I reaaallly should consider buying a UPS for my server. Hehe.

Oh! Almost forgot. I was told last friday that there would be an Initial D Tournament to be held on MOA yesterday. It was South Metro VS North Metro. The South group tried recruiting me (and borg) onto the tournament coz they thought we would be a big help. I was flattered…really! Its just that I didn’t think we would be of much help. We’ve been out of practice and just like I said on my previous post….I drive like crap. Hahaha! But to be polite since they went off their way to invite us, I said we’ll try to be there. If not as drivers…as supporters. Hehe. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to go since I had an emergency trip to make. Sigh. I wished I could have gone, I missed being behind that wheel of the Initial D machine. Sigh. Triple sigh.

Anyway, these were all just a bunch of rants…stories…some of them suspicious to believe. Hehe. I just needed a way to vent out these thoughts. It’s not healthy to talk to yourself all the time. Especially with other people around. They give me these weird looks. They might be thinking that I’m crazy! Hahahaha!

But they might be right…^__^

I should have known something was wrong. Although a small voice had been telling me that there was something amiss…I refused to listen. Hoping that everything is okay. A new bright blue sky will open up tomorrow. Guess I’m wrong. Here’s my horoscope for today: (I read it tonight to verify its claim)

Today a small sacrifice on your part might be called for. Letting
something leave your life so you can make room for something to come in
to your life is a difficult choice to make — after all, how can you be
certain that what is coming will be better than what is leaving? Rely
on your faith in the people involved, and trust that they know what is
best in this situation. If all else fails, just remember that moving
forward is better than standing still.

I guess the fortune-teller hit the mark today. A total bull’s eye. And he’s also right…somehow I have to move on. Keep on believing for another bright new day. I’m thankful I have friends I could talk to when things aren’t going well. Here’s what I have to say for the source of my depression:

"We’ve known each other a long time. Good and bad times had come and gone. We’ve faced each challenge bravely. And I’ve kept the good memories in my heart. I know I promised that I’ll always look after you and always be there wherever you may be. But for this particular instance, you’ve chosen a path which I cannot follow. Someday our paths will cross again and I hope when that day comes it will be a bright and beautiful day. So until then, I bid my farewell and always take care, my friend."

Start of rant.

Can someone who works hard defeat a person who has natural talents?

Can someone really touch heaven by going through hell?

I don’t know. But I sure hope so.

End of rant.
