Still Alive - 06.29.08

First of all, I am still alive: just in case anyone have thought that I died from the car accident over a month ago. (As I am also inactive on the Internet for a pretty good long period of time during the same period.)

I have meant to write this post for a REALLY long time, but just couldn't find time to do it. Even when I do have time to sit my butt down, there must be something to interrupt me from writing this nonsense.

*Sigh*

A lot of things happened since I wrote the last post. Although most of them are not worth mentioning. Plus, I can't recall over 90% of them right now, so instead of listing them out, I will be detailing the important ones (will try my best to put them in chronicle orders).

Story time folks.

Being stalked

slight profanity ahead, no "Seven Dirty Words" though

Well, stalk is probably not the right word, perhaps harass is better, I don't know, the dude (don't confuse yourself, not the same Dude from the movie The Big Lebowski, let's called him E here for the sake of simplicity) that's doing this (with, assumingly, his girlfriend) just creeps the heck out of me and puts my, well, fragile life (ZOMG), should I say, at risk.

So here's what happened, E asked me to come over to my lunch table (well that, of course, shared with my friends) one day many many blue months ago to ask me to say "Hi" to this girl, let us called her M (same chick as above mentioned - E's supposedly girlfriend). Well, I was eating my BLOODY LUNCH, my BLOODY LUNCH at the time, you don't interrupt me when I am EATING MY BLOODY LUNCH! Okay, as a "nice guy" (definition varies) I would still have probably waved at M. However, he offered to pay me, now that's just simply a different game, insult on a personal level.

DO I LOOK LIKE I AM A WHORE TO YOU? (I hate to point this out but this is a rhetorical question here, not intended for you to answer. Yes, you, C. B-S.)

Fast forward to the end of May and early June, around the time that most people don't even feel like dragging themselves to school anymore. BLAH BLAH E came over acting stupid again. I simply ignored him this time.

Now this is when the "risk" began: For three days after school he tried to stalked me home (methinks). Well, whether or not stalking I know not, but there shouldn't be any arguments that E's putting my life at risk. There's one time that E drove his car right next to my car (two lane, one way road that's circular) screaming, "HAOCHI SAY HI TO HER!" I don't think I did anything. If I had to something, I probably would have flicked E&M Co. off. Similar event took place two or three other occasions, including the last day of school.

Good thing I haven't seem him ever since (so far, at this stage of my live).


This is epic, not sure whether it is win or fail though.

Win: As some of you may know, I have been having this prolonged crush (or you can call it a curse, not like I really care anyway) on this girl (so far I have identified her as F.X. in an early entry) for the last couple of years. Now something changed - like twice (while still remaining single, happily).

I am not going to be Captain Obvious on this one. xD

Fail: Same reason as above, just looking at things from a different perspective.


SUMMER IS HERE!

It means a lot of things, summer job and approximately 5 truckloads of summer assignments. Life is still the same, except with summer job I am getting my reward on a more "immediate" manner (compares to school that pays you back in long term, et cetera).

Summer assignments:

  • The Fountainhead (reading right now, great book)
  • King Lear
  • Hamlet
  • Crime & Punishment, and
  • a review packet for next year's mathematics class

As for the "job", it's actually an internship at an (in their own word) "Internet design and consulting firm". Started working there a few days ago, really cool, partly because I get pay to do things that I love to do (as contrast to "Being Stalked" above) and partly because, well, IT'S COOL.

Another thing that I have worked on is to help the guys at CollegeFinance101 to set up a WordPress based website and modify an existing design for them. Actually been working on this since early June I believe, but it's been on and off (adding to the fact that I am a HUGE slacker at times). They are set to launch the site officially in the next few days.


Like I said, there are a lot of things that I just can't recall (at least at this very moment). I will update this entry as I remember them.

I was promised sammichs, hope that's not a lie. :)

Once you finish the book, check out the 1949 film with Gary Cooper. It's not bad. I assume you've also read Atlas Shrugged? Hooray for Objectivism. Enjoy your summer kiddo.
