SSO Big Boss Farewell

My big boss, Erik, from the pilot plant (SSO) has just rotated to a different position within the company. He's a funny and adorable man with a cheerful personality, so the entire office loves him. When he left, I drew the following graph along with a picture of him for his farewell. Everyone at the office signed on the poster I drew, and he loved how geeky and warm-hearted it was. If you understand the formula below, I'd say you are probably geeky enough to join me at the office!

Side note: Erik likes McDonals, and he loves Rutgers football. Corte, Campbell, Fine, and Holiday are the process leaders' last names. They like to call the big boss a "bonehead". That's just how closed they are as a team.

Election Day



I think I did the right thing for not voting. If the only reason I voted was to participate in this historical event and not to be a responsible citizen, then I was better off not voting at all.

Zipping Through the Woods... In the Fall

When the beautiful foliage hits, it's time for me to hit the outdoors and experience some fun. My first time doing a canopy tour in Pennsylvania... wohoo.. so much fun!

Life

The older I get, that more confused I have become.

I like to be consciously in control, so the more I feel confused and lost, the more frighten I become, which in turn makes me way more confused.

It's time to let go.

My Bike

Since I purchased my bike, I have only ridden it a few times. They were quality times though. I rode it around NYC for like 20 miles on one of the Saturdays. It was an amazing experience!

Beijing 2008 Olympics

Wow, it's unbelievable!!! I am so extremely proud of China, and deeply moved!

The brilliantly engineered"Bird Nest" stadium, the impeccable 15,ooo people choreography, the magnificent fireworks, and the inspiring spirit...... I am crying....

Chinese people are finally reaching out to the world stage and showing their strength! Speechlessly happy.

All the best to the China and US teams!

Miniture Sushi

I was bored at home in California, so I decided to put my creativity to use.
The inspiration came from shopping with my college roommates at Japan town. We saw these miniture cakes and other things that we adored, so I thought to myself that I would some day make up something like that, or even better.

My first try on Sushi Platter:
It's a bit rough, but I'll improve next time. The whole platter is just slightly bigger than the size of a quater coin.

My Stablility Challenge



I can't seem to find a small size stability ball on sale....

Oh... I am married! on Facebook!
haha.....that's just a joke between me and my dear friend, Mina. He's so funny and adorable. We decided that we would get married in Vegas later, but since we won't be able to do that soon, we do it on Facebook first.

I Did It!

I ran the 5K (3miles) without stopping! I am so proud of myself. I was never a runner; if anything, I am athletically challenged. But I did it, after a month of training like a gym rat.

Umn.... I finished it in 34+ minutes. It was slower than I normally would do on a treadmill, but it's probably due to the pounding on my muscle and knees that I wasn't used to. Anyhow, I am just so happy I did it.

Next goal: mini-tirathlon?

Just dreaming.....

Stubborn or Old-Fashioned?

This annoying lady at the gym is so creepy. Her hair is from the 80's and she just acts so full of herself. I usually feel very disgusted by her at the gym. Sigh... That's the me that can't stand other people. What can possibly make me so disgusted? It's just her hair. I have bad hair days too... (well, not bad hair years...)

Umn.. I Am Happy, For No Reason

I contribute it to the elevated level of endophine I acquire from exercises. *wink* *wink*

I've been trying to run a 5K for Breast Cancer Fund Raising, so the effect of all those sweat sessions is miraculous. I still cannot finish the 5K in one shot, but I can easily run it in a couple of intervals. Well, at least I am trying, and I hope it'll do some good, to me and to the research fund.

Anyhow, I am in love with the kick-boxing class, more precisely BODY COMBAT as they called in the gym. I can't resist the temptation of punching (someone or just the air). I am seriously considering taking a real boxing class.

Oh.... the spring here in the east coast is gorgeous!

What is Going on?

I haven't written any complaints or feeling on this blog for a while. I wonder if i've become more amenable, more taciturn, or just more apathetic.

***It's strange. As we age, things that seemed to matter suddenly becomes insignificant.

I used to think I really loved him. I couldn't get over him no matter what I did. Eventually, his shadow just turned into a blur in my memory. I even dreamed about him a few times, and we were happy in my dreams. But then I would realize the next day that I didn't miss him; I merely missed the good times we had spent together. He's no longer my "dream man".

***"If you don't like something the way it is, change it." --B.L.

A friend used to encourage me with that phrase. I like the passion and inititive it delivers. I am working on it. Trust me, I'll do it.

***Never try to please your mother, because you can never do it" --Steven Chu, Nobel Laureate

It always bothers me when I think of how much my parents want me to be with them. It's at the point where I think I am their property. I don't quite understand their love. Is it their loneliness? Or is it their manipulative nature? Why do they never let me grow up? I already feel horrible enough that I act like an inmature child all the time. Why do they need to spin the guilt card to make me feel even worse about myself?

Thanks, Donna!

As I wept myself into the state of exhaustion, suppressing the pain and ache caused by my over-heated body, I heard a voice fallen from the sky:" Are you OK?"

"No, I am not." -Me

"I bought you Emergen-C, made you some Gingseng tea, and some grits. Take them when you can. Feel better!" -Donna.

That was the most heart-warming feeling ever. Thanks, Donna, for being so caring!

I literally felt like I was dying. I don't recall feeling like this ever since I could remember. It was the most devastating fever I have ever gotten. I slept throught the entire Saterday, well, 30+ hours. I suddenly got the fever on Friday night, and it didn't go down until Sunday morning.

Thank God it's over now! I really appreciate Donna's help. It wasn't much, but it's all I needed from a friend who cares. =)
