Oh, how time flies when you're an adult. There are times I wish I could be a kid again, but days like today I'm happy to be an adult.
Dan and I recently made one year but couldn't do it big because I don't have the time to take off from work. So he booked us a room in Lakes Charles for the weekend just so we can relax. We are heading there now.
I love this man.
I can't believe in 3 weeks I will be away from him for almost 3 weeks. It's going to be a sad yet exciting departure. Definitely will be a happy homecoming.
I'm leaving for Vietnam soon. What an exciting ending to a great year! Posted via LiveJournal.app.

Sometimes I think I'm cursed to be born a Gemini. Seriously, I am constantly changing my mind about things. I'm told the other day I don't know what I want even though I claim to know what I want.
F.U.C.K. Y.O.U.!!
You don't know me.
Peace.

I'm overweight.
Got an iMac for my birthday. An early birthday gift from my girlfriends, little sister and older brother.
Mom is getting me a pair of expensive diamond studs for my birthday. Bling bling!
I wonder what else I'll be getting on my birthday?
Might as well milk it since I'm turning 30...

Dear LJ,
Life has been busy, but good.
Planning a lot of trips this summer - all roadtrips. First stop is home next weekend. Since I missed seeing my mom for Mother's Day I'm going home Memorial Weekend to makeup for it. Than it's to Houston, TX for a graduation celebration for one of my friends. Two weeks after that it's back to Houston to celebrate our big 3-0 birthday (three of us have birthdays in June). A couple of weeks after that is a long roadtrip with my favorite person in the world, Trang, to Fayattevile, TN. Don't ask me why we chose that town, but that's where we're going.
Anything after that is yet to be planned, but I can assure you that's not going to be the last of my trip for the year.
I promise to come back soon and write more.
YTH

Hi.
I'm still alive and doing well.
It is almost the end of February.
Feels like time is passing by so fast.
I don't need to slow down.
Just keep moving.
Hope you're doing well.

I have two snowboarding trips planned in the beginning of 2009. So I am gearing up for it. I can see these trips costing me a bundle since I'm starting from scratch. A board, boots, clothes, accessories...you name it, I need it.
Snowboarders - any suggestions where I should start looking for stuff?

In Tyler Perry’s movie Diary of a Mad Black Woman I thought “love” was best described in a scene between the two characters, Orlando and Helen.
Orlando: I’m just sittin’ here, trying to think of a way to say this to you.
[pauses]
Orlando: I’m in love with you.
Helen: How do you know that?
Orlando: I don’t know how to explain it to you.
Helen: Try.
Orlando: Helen, if I’m away from you for more than an hour, I can’t stop thinking about you. I carry you in my spirit. I pray for you more than I pray for myself. I’ve got it so bad for you I’d...I’d go to the grocery store and buy your feminine products, I swear I would.
[Helen and Orlando laugh]
Orlando: And see? And that...that...that smile. Helen, when you smile like that, my world...it’s all right.
[pauses]
Orlando: I am in love with you.
*sniff sniff*
Can someone please pass me a tissue.
Pain is inevitable and so is falling in love. It is what we are supposed to experience as human beings. It is a force of nature that bring us together whether it is good or bad. We should not allow the selfish act of others jade us from falling in love - again. Life is too short. Believe that you deserve to have the greatest thing God created when he brought us into this world. Believe it and you’ll have it. It may not be today, tomorrow or a month from now. Just know you’ll have it even if you have to endure a lot of pain along the way.
This is a message brought to you by Hopelessly-in-Love.

It is near the end of another work day and instead of wrapping up some unfinished projects I decided I'm going to write. I'm in the mood to write.
I hope I don't get carry away....
I have been writing for over a decade (most of those writings are now archived in the land of www.iwonttellyouthesitename.com). Looking back I can't help but laugh at myself. Man, did I sound immature and silly. What the hell did I know back then to sit and express in words what I think life is or what being in love is like? Who was I kidding? But the big question is "Who the fuck cared?". Ironically, those who read my writings did because day after day they left comments to let me know what they thought.
It seems like lately, these days, the only thing I write about is how lost I feel. I suddenly realized a decade ago I had no clue what life was about and what being in love was truly like. I went through my life like I knew it all, yet I didn't. For that I am paying for my mistakenly ignorant knowledge.
As I got dressed for work this morning, I'm excited for a new day. I took one last look at myself in the mirror before I walked out the door and said, "Wow, Yen. You really look like you have it altogether. No one would guess how fucked up you really are." Reality check, please!
I get to work and for a moment I truly believe I have it altogether. I bury myself in my work and let those negative thoughts bury along in my work. Than comes that time, at the end of the day, I stop working and start daydreaming.
I am not where I want to be...
Just that thought. It lingers on my mind each and everyday. And I wonder what I can or need to do to get rid of that negative thought - completely.
The answer - Change.
There you have it folks. My random thought for the day.

I am absolutely in love with this guy. He is the star of the remake Shanghai Bund (for you Vietnamese folks the title is Tan Mau Nhuom Bai Thuong Hai).
This video was taken at a club we went to in San Francisco this weekend. Hallie's boyfriend was smashed and decided to have a dance off with one of the other guys that came on the trip. You had to be there.
And on to pictures. Some of these are from other people camera. I have too many to upload right now. I'll share them once I can get them all up.

I have always loved San Francisco but something about this trip changed my mind. Maybe it was because of the lack of parking spaces or the walking up the hilly streets which leaves the ass hurting the next day. I don't know. San Francisco just is not the same.
Or maybe I've changed. :/

They say the best therapy for a broken heart is laughter, but when your heart is aching how can you smile much less laugh?

These are not my work, but because I'm the subject I felt the need to share with my LJ friends. These pictures were taken with Trang's camera except for the last one in this group - it was taken with mine.
Now on to my work. I have many more to share, but these will do for now.
Now the creepy stuff. Look and tell me what you see. If you see something - don't worry - it's not your imagination. :)

| I heart NYC! |
[16 Aug 2007|11:09am] |
I am sitting on the plane next to my little sister and we're heading to NYC! Wahoo! As many times as I've been to that city I can never get enough of it. But this time its not for me. Its for my little sister who has never been there. I am more excited about it for her. I know she is going to love it and will want to go back every year.
Who doesn't love NYC? They are nuts!
Alright, gotta sign off because we are about to take off! Have a great weekend everyone!
