Do work, son

It just doesn't make sense.

Lemme see, based on my past, I'm gonna say that I'm not very good at avoiding someone I like.

I wonder what needs to change about myself for this effort to be successful this time.

Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

I'm going

to game 1 of the World Series.

Holy Crap.

IS THIS REAL LIFE?

Wow.

Thoughts on the season.

I have a feeling that although the Giants are doing exceptionally well this year, Posey's conflict with some of the pitching staff (most notably Lincecum) may be one of those secrets that the team is trying to play down.

I mean why else would Posey catch every other starter, and ONLY play first when Lince is pitching.

And did anyone else see Affeldt punching Posey when they clinched the NL West? Posey was PISSED. I know it was all supposed to be good fun and all but haha, I'm just hoping we don't lose Posey in the future because teammates can't necessarily see eye to eye.

And did anyone notice Posey calling out Bum in Game 2 about his arm angle against the Reds? That's just something you don't wanna do during between-inning warm-ups. The whole Reds squad must have noticed Bum was off his game.

Just my observation.

We still persevere. Magic #7

Letting myself down

I have constantly let myself down by attempting to persuade those who don't place any value on my life and feelings.

I'm tired of it. I know that I am a leader-type who can handle this bullshit and deal with those who don't care for me. I will just continue to be true to myself and love those who care about me. I'll make sure that someday, you see my success.

And you'll remember it.

One last.

And I'm single

Again. And how many documentations have there been Mr. Blog? You know me so well. :)

I'm not very good with break ups; this is something you also know very well. THIS break up seems to be easier in some ways but still, there are a lot of similarities to past ones.

I kind of have this problem of falling in love with someone and staying in love while they may slowly disengage. I don't know what it is, but I guess when I'm in a relationship with someone, I build up some static idealistic image of that person in my head. I become blinded by love, and forget that others' feelings may fade.

I end up loving people too much... and, in the end, they can't give me the love I need back...

And now, presently I'm single. I'm still looking for the right one. Someone who I can be completely real with. Someone who will love me for me and all I have to offer... someone who could be my partner for life. I think that's what they call a soulmate these days...

*sigh*

Goodnight.

With every ending

starts a new beginning.

Remember that Raymond.

You're still maturing.

I love this quote.

Apathy

Days like this, I just feel so lazy. So unmotivated. -_- idk what to do. Sleep? Hmm.... time to think.

The past week

This has been the craziest week in terms of life impacting events that I've has in a long time. These kinds of things are what steer life in different directions.

Biking...

I got hit by a white SUV today @ 7:40pm traveling approx 35-40mph today on Jackson/Alum Rock in SJ while riding my bike home from school. I was in the bike lane. Hit and Run is a felony. I hope this person gets the punishment he/she deserves... and pays for all of my expenses and suffering.

How?

How do I deal with anything that's larger than life?

Break it into smaller pieces.  You'll figure it.

Intervention... Forreal this time.

I'm making a choice to make a big change in my life....

I see where this is headed, and it's not anywhere better than where I currently am...

I'm going to give this up for AT LEAST 31 days...

Think I'm good for it?

I've got 200 bucks on the line.

This is a real test for me – let's see what I'm made of.
