I FOUND MY CELLPHONE....WOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!! GOD IS GOOD!!!!

I'm such a whore!!

I went back to the Navy site this morning trying to look for my phone. No luck.

I am determined not to get too flustered over this. But it's hard. That phone is my life. Without it I almost don't know what to do. I can't think straight...I don't know what my to-do-list is, I don't know when my appointments are, or my phone numbers. There is just one glimmer of hope. Me and my roommate yesterday were wrestling in our room, and I'm hoping it just got knocked around somewhere. Actually come to think of it, that's probably what happened. I'm going to go home right now and look for it. I'm confident it has to be there. If not I'm just screwed.

Ever since I've gotten to work I haven't been productive at all. All I can think about is what I'm going to do if I can't find my phone. I was even looking at new phones. Yes, yes, I know, I'm ashamed to even have thought of cheating on my current phone.

I wonder if it would be wrong, or in bad taste to pray to God that I find my phone. At work the bible study group (which I haven't attended in ages) is going to discuss whether it would have been okay to pray for the Eagles to win the conference championships. I thought that was kind of funny.

I LOST MY CELLPHONE !!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! HOW CAN I BE SO CARELESS !!! AHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

Last night I watched The Apprentice and my man Sam got voted off. He was the first guy to leave the show with grace though. I still like that guy a lot, although I do acknowledge he can be annoying...but if I start a business, I would be so honored if he came to manage for me. I think he's the kind of guy that gets stuff done, although he did seem a bit childish in some of the scenes. So anyway this morning I had the TV set to wake me up at 8am so I can watch him on the Today Show with Katie Couric. She interviewed him and overall he just seemed like a nice guy. Then they brought his girlfriend out to ask her some questions too...and then after that Sam gets down on his KNEE AND PROPOSES TO HER. OMG MY HEART JUST MELTED. ha ha ha. Just kidding. But seriously that guy has got guts and thinks big...asking for marriage on NATIONAL TV!!!

So this morning I take a shower and get dressed, but I'm running low on clothes, haven't been able to do my laundry last few nights because my roommates have been doing theirs. My fault though because I've been putting it off. Today I decide to put on a sweater, luckily I have an T-shirt to wear underneath it. I'm wearing a sweater I got as a present last christmas from Tae and Clara. The sweater definitely ain't as comfortable as before. I get to work and after a few hours my co-worker and I are talking then he leans forward toward me and looks at me kind of oddly, and says, "Dude, you have your sweater on backward!!!" I'm such a dork. I can't believe I did that. That's what 70 and 80 year-olds are supposed to do not someone in his 20's.

Anyway!!!

I was reading this article on CNN.com that said the following:

"Small cracks were found in 17 of the 34 engines inspected in Japan thus far, according to Mark Sullivan, a spokesman for Pratt & Whitney, which manufactures the engines."
"The JT8D-200 Pratt & Whitney engine is the only engine used on the MD-80 series aircraft, and there are more than 1,000 of the aircraft worldwide."
"Of the 4,652 aircraft flown by major U.S. airlines, 554 are MD-80s, according to figures compiled in late 2002.

American Airlines flies the most MD-80s of any airline; they comprise 362 of its 819 aircraft, according to the 2002 figures. Delta has 573 of the planes, Alaska has 31, Continental has 29 and Midwest 12."

The numbers don't actually add up in the article, but my flight coming back from Pascagoula is on a Delta MD-80. The kind of stuff I love reading before flying.

I thought these de-motivational pictures were kind of funny. I'm thinking I should buy some of these calendars.

Anyway this afternoon when I went out for lunch I also picked up a pair of steel-tipped boots for work next week. Didn't really care about the price since I get to expense it on my trip report...but I did get it on sale at $59. I saved the company $20. I was tempted to get the $89 pair just to have more expensive shoes, but then I thought either way I'm not going to wear these a whole lot so I don't really need the more expensive ones. I think these boots will give me the construction worker look if I wear it with jeans and white T-shirt...and maybe after a million gazillion push-ups.

I also made my arrangements for next week's trip. I'm going to be staying at the Beau Rivage which is supposed to be a resort hotel and casino. My mom is really going to come down on me for this one...but hey, that's where the company wants me to stay...so who am I to complain. I can't wait!!!

Here is a picture of something from the news I recorded. A car fell through a sink hole. Pretty crazy huh?

Gosh what a day! Woke up at 5:15 this morning to get ready for work. Had to be there at 6am. Didn't get off until freaking 8:30pm. I thought I had gotten a good nights rest too, but at work I was totally dead.

Anyway last night I was totally dreaming away. Really active and vivid dreams. Then I would wake up and think wow, isn't it morning yet? So I went back to sleep and dreamed another dream. Did this a couple more times. My last dream was kind of interesting. Basically I was in a car with some other people and all of a sudden the car in front of us came to a dead stop. I warned the driver to stop, but he too was distracted and we rear-ended the car, and strangely enough, this happened one car after another behind us. I looked out to see what was the matter. Basically as far as the eye could see, was earth moving equipment up and down the hills. Then on a water tower you could see the price of the new hotels in this development. They were evicting us all out of our houses, and had already removed our houses in preparation for the new hotels. It had kind of a monopoly feel to it.

So let's see...where to start? Oh I know...EAGLES SUCK. They always choke at the championship. Enough said about that.

So yesterday after work I went to Lowes to pick up some stuff. Then went to church for a leaders meeting. We started off with dinner and then played a quick game. Basically with a ream of paper, box of 100 straws, and roll of masking tape we had to build the strongest and highest structure in 7 minutes. The structures were put to the test by placing hymn books on top. One of the funniest parts was when everyone revealed their structures. I tried to convince my team that we need to make our structure higher because everyone's structure would basically be 11" high (the height of paper). I knew everyone would basically roll up the paper into columns...but they wanted to focus strictly on strength. I thought my group would do best because we had 2 Lockheed Martin engineers. But then another group revealed their structure which had like a 5 foot pole made of straws on the side...strictly for height advantage. I laughed out loud, jealous I hadn't thought of that myself. Out of 10 teams only three made it to the final. They held all the hymn books in the room. Then came the sitting test. Someone sat on them and they held up. So then came the standing test. Someone stood on our structures after which ours finally collapsed. The team with the 5-foot pole won. It was too funny.

Wow did I have a lazy night last night. After a very tiring 11-hour work day I finally got to go home and crash in bed. I didn't even bother going to Phileo and I fell asleep around 7pm and got up around 9:30. Cooked some fried rice and watched some TV before falling asleep again. My roommate must have had a lot of fun because he didn't come home until LATE. For some reason I woke up with this weird pain in my abdomen. I was sure it had something to do with me not having a bowel movement in several days. Sure enough I sat there trying to force a baby out of my body...but the delivery was unsuccessful so I curled back into bed slightly moaning of the discomfort. Hopefully my roommate didn't think I was trying to have fun in bed. If he comes in after I'm in bed, then I try not to move around, so he thinks I'm sleeping. I'm sure he does the same thing.

So anyway I get up finally around 11am and stop by the pharmacy to pick up my Rx...then head to work. I found out yesterday my boss wants me to start working 60-hour work weeks thru March, then 50-hour work weeks thru October. That's 10-hour days Mon-Sat!!! Not only that, but I looked at how they did the breakdown and appears as though I was supposed to have been doing 50-hour work weeks to begin with. I've only been shooting for 40 hours. Ha ha ha. Oh well. Gosh this sucks. Well at least I get paid extra. Oh...and I also found out recently that there is not an "overtime" rate (ie.- time and a half). I'm a salaried employee but the union stipulates that we get paid overtime...but someone told me it's at our regular salaried rate. I'll have to check up on that. But I did find out there is something called 2nd shift, where if you start work at night, then you get an added percentage over your salaried rate. This will help a little.

Yesterday after work I went to Petsmart and the mall to look for a black light. Couldn't find one small enough, so I'm just going to order online. Supposedly you can shine a black light on urine and it's supposed to glow. Found that out from a boy scout link. Another site even advertised that the small portable black lights were a great way to find out if your kids were cleaning the bathroom well enough. I'm sold on the idea. I think my roommate makes too much of a mess. Now I'll be able to tell for sure.

So anyway we had our webteam meeting yesterday at our place. We cooked up some spaghetti, and when I asked everyone for $3 to cover the cost, they all laughed at me instead. Talk about harsh. So now that's $40 I've spent on feeding others this week. Yesterday was the first time for me to cook in a while. For some reason I've lost desire to cook anymore. I think part of the problem is my appetite. I'm constantly buying food that I think I want to eat, but never end up finishing. I used to feel bad about not finishing food, but now it doesn't bother me at all. I think my parents would really be upset if they knew...because that's NOT how they raised me.

When I was growing up, they used to make us finish every last grain of rice on our plate. Even when I was in high school, my mom made this Korean acorn squash stew which I hated. For some reason my mom piled the bowl full of squash. I had managed to eat most of it but was having trouble putting down the last few spoonfuls. I've never felt this bad about my mom's cooking but this particular day I felt that if I took another spoonful I was going to hurl. I mean I was hurting to finish this, because I thought my dad would be upset, but instead he looks at me with a little bit of concern and asks me what was wrong. Reluctantly I told them the truth, trying to be sensitive to my mom's feelings. I thought my dad was going to tell me to suck it up and finish it, but to my amazement he said, "Oh, then don't eat it." I was so shocked that my parents allowed me to do that. Man I sure miss those days. ;)

So yesterday I watched the second episode of The Apprentice. Boy that show is great. I LOVE it. I'm so glad my man, Sam, didn't get voted off. However I predict the winner of the show will not be SAM since the producers are giving him too much TV time. It'll definitely be one of the quieter persons.

This morning I came to work at 6am. I'm worried my car might have problems before the winter is over. The last few times I've started the car it didn't sound healthy. Hopefully it's just the bitter cold that's affecting it, but still it's no less consoling. So I get to the test site and stand around in CIC (Combat Information Center - basically the heart of tactical operations on a ship). That's usually where we work, but no one else is really around. Just sailors. So I go downstairs and find out that's where all my fellow coworkers are camping out. We are approaching the demo phase of our program...and so the idea is to let the sailor figure out problems themselves. Anything they can't resolve, they come to us for help. So basically we are on call. Which is pretty cool because now I can actually do work when I'm here at the test site.

There aren't enough bathrooms in my workplace. They've closed off half of the building since there are two different projects going on here, which requires access to be restricted. What used to barely be adaquate bathroom facilities is now very insufficient since now we don't have freedom to go to other unoccupied bathrooms. Now all I can do is post about how stupid the situation is until someone stops taking their merry time on the john. ARGH!!!

Can you believe there are just 2 toilets for men, and one unisex handicap bathroom that I can use. There must be over 200 people working in this part of the building. Isn't that ridiculous?

Must hold it in. Must fight urge.

My friend Andy from The Hahn Spot has inspired me to look at my site statistics for my blog. Here what it looks like so far for the month of January. I can only thank YOU, my faithful readers, for supporting this site. Due to the overwhelming costs of maintaining this site (both physically and mentally), contributions are being accepted. Please make checks payable to Donald Park, but I must ask that you keep the donations less than $1000. If each of my readers gave me that much money that might affect my tax status ;)

Yesterday I spent some time figuring out how to encode my Recorded TV shows. Now I can burn them into MPEG or stream them. Unfortunately I don't have server space to keep it on. Maybe I'll ask my brothers for help with server space.

This morning I woke up really LATE. Came into work at 12:30pm. Oh it felt great to sleep in. Tomorrow I have to be in at work by 6am. This morning the ground was covered in snow too. I'll try and take a picture.

After work today I went to a pet shop to pick up a GloFish. It cost me $10. I guess the thing that sucks about this fish is that it doesn't look any different from regular fish. This Glofish is actually a zebra danio injected with a special gene present in sea anenome. I has a slight red appearance but surrounded with regular zebra danios...it's hard to distinguish between them unless you have a black light. The black light will make the glow in the dark.

Tonight we had a birthday party for Nancy. Here are some pics.

Nancy's Birthday Dinner


We even had the fireplace going




Today is a sad, sad day. Indeed. Not only did I sacrifice my morning of sleep because yesterday a coworker asked me to cover for him this morning, but while I was working, I pulled out my Samsung smartphone to look up a number and as I attempted to put the phone back into my pocket, I missed the pocket opening and the poor thing proceeded to plunge to the ground. Whenever I drop something my first instinct is to extend my foot to break the object's fall (fortunately those instincts take a back seat when I handle a knife). Anyway the phone ricocheted off my foot and hit the wall. This is only my third time ever "dropping" the phone. The first time it happened over carpet, so it was no big deal. The second time happened a month ago. The phone dropped on the sidewalk and the battery popped out. I thought for sure the phone was a goner, but luckily nothing happened. But TODAY...oh the horror, the injustice...the...the...MY PHONE IS ANTENNA-LESS. :( Now I'll just like a regular Joe Schmoe with a phone. People might not think I'm a FOB without the flashy, colorful lights.

And this all happened after receiving a less than stellar performance review yesterday. Why the HECK did I volunteer to fill in for my coworker? And even more frightening is the fact that I opened up a fortune cookie on Sunday with no fortune inside. What an ominous way to start the week. The moral of this story: Don't open fortune-less fortune cookies. Nothing good will come out of it.


Tuesday, January 13, 2004

In light of recent events on this blog, I understand this may be offensive to some people. To those who are, all I can say is this, don't be. I talked to my Indian friend at work about my situation, to get his feedback on whether I might have been out of line or not regarding my post on 1/3/04. He didn't find it offensive at all. To my surprise he even told me a joke which goes something like this. A baker walks into a barber shop one day for a hair cut. Upon finishing his hair the baker went to pay for his haircut but the barber refused payment citing he wanted to do a good deed for a fellow shop owner. The next day the baker returned with a dozen pastries to thank the barber for his generosity.

A few days later a florist comes in for a cut. When he goes to pay, the barber again in a good mood cites that he wants to do something nice for a fellow store owner. So the next day the florist drops off a bouquet of a dozen assorted flowers to show his appreciation.

Yet again on another day an Indian IT engineer stops by for a cut. The barber and engineer strike up an interesting conversation, and again feeling generous refuses payment citing that he was just doing a good deed. So the next day the Indian engineer returns with a dozen of his IT friends for a free cut!!!

When me and my co-worker heard this we both let out a loud laugh.

Well today really sucked. My performance review didn't at all go as well as I had hoped. I definitely need to look for a new job. This morning I spent a half hour or so looking for my resume. I think I'd feel more appreciated doing other things. This is definitely not my line of work. Anyway this really sucks. I don't feel like working for this stupid company anymore. I don't feel like they appreciate my work, and I've been busting my balls too. ARGH!!!!!!

Today I'm going to treat myself to shooting golf balls at the driving range, and watching a movie.


Monday, January 12, 2004

This morning I woke up early again to go back to the dentist. He drilled into my lower left molar. He doped me up pretty good because I didn't really feel any pain, but I still hated every second of it. Sitting there rigid like a board, holding my breath, expecting them to mess up and say OOops. They drilled through my old filling and found some decay underneath. Good thing I'm getting it done now. I was afraid they were going to do a root canal or something. He covered the area with a temporary filling. I have to go back in about 3 weeks to have the final cap put in. I HATE the dentist. I just hate it. Even the cleanings I don't like because they take the poker and cut up your gums. The other day I was spitting up some serious blood because of that stupid ultrasonic thingy. She kept on saying my gums were bleeding because they were sensitive. NO, it's the vibrating METAL POKER you're using. I like having the tartar on my teeth thank you very much. I see it as another layer of protection. The back side of my lower front teeth are sensitive to even the air that I breath, which has me very careful about eating even cool or warm foods. Enough about my teeth. How about yours?

So anyway in TV news. Survivor is having an All-stars episode. All your favorite past-stars will be on this show which airs after the Super Bowl. Also yesterday I watched my first full episode of Sex and the City, and I must say I still don't understand what all the hoopla is about this show. How and why would you watch this show over The Simpsons?

I had other thoughts but I forgot. Oh well.


Sunday, January 11, 2004

Today was a pretty normal Sunday. However, today we started with our 3rd service. P.Paul moves from one service right into another...3 services in a row. Personally I think he's a little crazy unless I've under-estimated just how much energy and enthusiasm he really has...but I'm sure he'll say it's all God's doing. So today we showed a video that one of our deacons made to promote our 3 services. Take a looksie. It's pretty funny. Three Services.

After service a bunch of us (about 12 of us) went out to lunch at Sang-Kee. Amazingly we ordered just enough food and when we were done we all cracked into our fotune cookies. I cracked mine open only to find NOTHING inside. Needless to say I was a little spooked that I didn't ge a fortune. I'm not superstitious or anything but nonetheless it's still not a good feeling.

After lunch we went to a Chinese bakery to get some bubble tea. Then after that we went back to church to figure out what else to do. Decided to go into NJ and get some dessert so a few of us went to a diner. I felt like all we did was eat all day. Came home to watch the Eagles vs. Packers game. It was a pretty tight game with a nail biting ending. Eagles won.


Saturday, January 10, 2004

Today I woke up early and went to work at 8am. Stayed til 5pm. I was so tired and fell asleep at work a couple of times. Got home wanting to sleep...but worked on church stuff all night. Yujin and Lynnette cooked a pretty good dinner tonight of dweng-jang and spring rolls like at VR. Both Shao and Paul are at home this weekend. Boy it sure feels nice when they are gone.


Friday, January 9, 2004

So this morning I wake up early...the earliest this year!!! Well that's not saying much since it's only been 9 years. I got up at 8am and got ready for my 8:30 appointment which I was still 20 minutes late for. I sat down and right away the lady proceeded to drill holes all over my mouth. She kept saying my gums were over sensitive because I haven't been taking care of them. The whole time I kept thinking, "Damn lady, maybe they wouldn't be bleeding if you'd stop sticking my gums full of holes". So I think I have a small cavity on 19, and a little bit of work needs to be done on 18. Part of my tooth cracked off around a filling and needs to be rebuilt. The estimate on the work is $818. Insurance covers part of it, so I only have to pay $376. For the life of me I still can't understand how a little bit of dental work costs so much. NBC should do a special Fleecing of America episode on dentists.


Thursday, January 8, 2004

The last few days have kind of been busy. Monday I basically stayed at work all day. Got into work at 10 because that��s when I thought I was supposed to be there, only to find out I didn��t need to be there until noon. On top of that I found out I was supposed to work until 12 midnight instead of 4pm. So basically that really sucked. 14 hours of work ain��t too bad, but it��s a real drag when you don��t�� expect it.

Then on Tuesday, I had to leave work just a little bit early to go home and prepare some sermon slides for P. Paul. He��s going to the OIL conference and wanted me to prepare his slides for him. So that took up the rest of my night.

Then on Wednesday I stayed at work until I could finish up this project that I��m like WAY behind on. I finally finished the last document. Now I just need to go back through and make some finishing touches. When I got home I sat in front of my computer trying to set-up my computer. I tried looking for a good download program. I tried to download Kazaa lite but couldn��t find it. I think they are having legal problems against Kazaa. Did some reading about spyware that gets installed on your computer with Kazaa, so that scared me away from that. Looked at eMule and ended up installing that instead. Although I don��t think I like that either. I miss the good old days of Napster and Audio Galaxy.

Anyway this part of my post is dedicated to Dan. A stereotype is a generalization of something, be it good or bad. For example, snakes have a negative stereotype...which may lead someone to feel prejudiced against snakes (i.e. - I think snakes are dangerous). To ACT on those beliefs, would be discrimination or racism. To brand someone as a racist just because they hold pre-conceived views about a different race is just as bigoted, insofar as you have prejudged my character before really knowing my situation, experience, or motive for action. For example in this case, I mentioned a joke, and you reproved me simply because I promulgated these stereotypes, not necessarily because I myself believe them. In doing that, you have passed judgment on my presumed views, not on the actual beliefs that I hold. That��s bigoted�Kbut then again, aren��t we all?

Everyone stereotypes. The existence of stereotypes does not necessarily lend itself to racism, however (and the operative word is) to ACT on those stereotypes CAN be. But just because you act on them, doesn��t necessarily mean it��s wrong. If you walk down a dark alley and see a bum following you, do you ignore him? Or if you are in a tour group and your guide tells you to hold onto your wallets and purses because the gypsies are notorious for pick-pocketing. Or you��re manning the cash register and you see bunch of black people walk in with big, long jackets. It might seem unfair, but it��s not necessarily wrong.

Anyway holding onto certain stereotypes can be bad and they can be good. We could go back and forth all day on this�Kbut I don��t think what I said was wrong, especially since I didn��t make the jokes, and the other stereotypes about waiting long at the pump aren��t totally unfounded. Next time you want to be in my face�Ktry it in person, not behind a webpage.

I have a brand spanking new computer. Oh how sweet it is. I bought an HP Media Center m377n. I can watch, record, burn, TV, DVD, and anything else from this multimedia powerhouse. After church we all hung out at our place. Since this was the first Sunday after New Years, the church provided free duk-gook for lunch. So we didn't have to waste money for lunch :) After coming to our place I cleaned up my room and setup my new computer. I'm watching TV from my computer as I write this post. How cool is that? So basically now I have a souped up computer with TIVO...except no subscription fee. So anyway I don't feel like writing much because I've got to play around with my computer more.


Saturday, January 3, 2004

Wow...was the night fun. Just got back from AC with a fatter wallet than when I left...at least 4 bills thicker :) Before we left, we all stopped by the Marlton Diner for some dinner. We all ate light since none of us were hungry. On our way there we tossed back and forth some jokes. Part of the thrill of going to AC, as with any journey, is actually getting there. We noticed this BIG Wawa gas station and started complaining about full-service gas in NJ. Typically they are owned by Indian or Middle Eastern men. Sometimes you got to wait a really long time before an attendant will even acknowledge you, because the conversation they are having with the co-worker that they are working with all day couldn't possibly wait another second. Customer service at a NJ gas station...pshaw...WHATEVER!!! So anyway Allen says if you want faster service you need to bring some curry. We all burst into laughter at his very audatious and gross racial stereotype. Then out of nowhere Laura asks what time is it in India. Scott begins to take a stab at the calculations and after a few seconds of mumbling something about his last conference call to India, he quickly blurts out an answer. Laura corrects Scott and says, "No...it's 7-Eleven". Again we all die laughing. We also talked about superstitions and how water in Chinese is good luck. Someone noted that the last time we went to AC and won money, it had rained torentially. So to fake the good luck, Allen turned on his windshield wipers to give the illusion that it was raining really hard. We all had a good laugh. ** So there's no confusion, we weren't actually making fun of Indians. I too have very good indian friends. So please no hate messages. **

Finally got there and lost most of my money rather quickly on roulette. Then went to the craps table with only $45. Time sure flies by because we didn't leave until 2am. Drove back and everyone joked about being hungry. Seeing as we had left one of the cars at the diner parking lot we all decide to stop inside again to get some shakes and stuff. We took the same table and sat in the same exact seats as before we left. Felt almost like we had never left, although we were a LOT happier the second time there.

My New Year's celebration was kind of lame. I went to church for New Year's Eve service. Pastor Dwight said we'd end just before midnight to countdown the seconds into 2004. When we finished praying Pastor Dwight looked at his watch and said we'll do the countdown from 10 seconds...even though it was already 12:02!!! So that was kind of gay. I think next year we should start the service at 11pm, end by 11:30, and all head down to Penn's Landing to watch the fireworks. Next years I resolve to have a really really kick ass New Year's party. After service a few of us went to Kwang-jin's for his new year's party. There were lots of people there I didn't know. While we were there, the married couples had a conversation about their spouse's pet peeves. One of them mentioned that their spouse takes way too much time in the morning getting ready. One of the girls asked Scott in a firm tone, "Well...are you satisfied with the end product?" Then to our surprise, Scott outwitted her by saying "I'm satisfied with the beginning product." We were all like WOOOO....GOOD ANSWER.

New Year's Day I tried to sleep in but Yujin woke us up to go to Han-Chon for some free duk-gook. I only paid $2 for tip. What a great deal :) Then I got home watch a movie with Nancy, while everyone else went down to DC. After Nancy left I basically watched TV, slept, watch TV, had some cereal for dinner, slept, watched more TV, slept, then went up stairs to sleep some more, only I wasn't so tired anymore so I watched a movie on TV, then finally went to bed.

Which brings us to today. I didn't get up until 2pm. Watched some TV...had some chicken wings and soda for lunch. Scott and Debbie came over and well now it's 7:42 PM and we are about to go out for dinner. Pretty boring huh?
