That was the Golden Globe???? Kind of ironic that I got all of the winners long before the “official” telecast on NBC ever caught up. And also ironic that the Matt Lauer’s Dateline special didn’t interview any winners. Heh. Now, my predictions. With HFPA, my theory is to pick something less Hollywood-y. They seemed to go for that more than Oscars which has become a lot more of a popular contest than anything. But even that theory didn’t really work for me this year.  As for television category, I mostly guessed blind because I don’t have HBO. I’m just...

Next Sunday is our 6th wedding anniversary. Appropriately, we’ll be celebrating that in Honolulu. (5 more days!!!) But the question about anniversary gift came up. B: What is the gift we are supposed to give each other this year? O: I don’t know. I don’t think there’s anything special to give after the 5th one until the 10th one. [Note: Wrong! Traditional gift for 6th anniversary is candy or iron.] If that’s the case, I already got you something from ThinkGeek. B: What do you want me to get you then? O: You think of something this time. Something small....

This is the first night this week that I have stayed up past 9:30 p.m. by the way.  Been going to be that early and yet still couldn’t drag myself out of bed in the morning. But then again, I have found myself waking up in the middle of the night: a) going to the bathroom…as a backlash of my attempt to drink more water b) grinding my teeth c) imaging that someone else was in the bedroom, possibly as a result of… d) dreaming way the fuck too much And no, working out and trying to get healthy (i.e....

Tuesday marked the first work out attempts of 2008. I walked for 5 minutes then I stretched. Back on for 4 reps of 2-minute fast walk (3.2) and 3-minute jog (4.2). Cool down for another 3 minutes. Then I broke in my new pink boxing gloves on the bag and kicking the kicking shield (Brandon helped) for another 5 minutes before I completely ran out of breath. Then I spotted a lean but athletic built Asian girl in the place. I saw her running on the treadmill over the weekend. “Was that the uber boxing girl you guys talked about?”...

The Golden Globe has been practically canceled. Instead of the lavish dinner gala, it’ll be just a news conference announcing the winners. I can totally live with that. For the fact that I like the fun nature of the GG more than the Oscars, I will miss the awards this year. Actually, with the Oscars only another month away, will that be canceled too? Perhaps. I am looking forward to another movie marathon though. I’d do it in a heart beat. Will check on AMC website everyday once the nominees are announced. One point for the writers though! Now, I...

This challenge has been canceled for obvious reason. It’s REALLY fuckin’ hard. LOL. Thanks for stopping by anyway, y’all! 🙂 A few days ago, Lillian‘s meme got me compiling the first sentence from each month in 2007 into a “Summary of 2007”. That little project gave me an idea for a blogger challenge. Blogger friends, this mission is yours if you choose to accept it. First Sentence Challenge: Use only the first sentences from all of your 2007 blog entry to form a coherent story. The sentences don’t have to appear chronologically. You can put the sentences anywhere you like....
