hello people,

i'm at work right now, and yeah, just as i'd expected... work sucks shit.

oh and due to some firewall at work, i'm not able to publish this to my ucla website. see that's TWO strikes against work.

[later that day]

now i'm home, and it's all very wonderful. i just went to vons and picked up some frozen foods for lunch. $2.50 each, not bad. better than going out to eat. but of course it's fattening. i need to remind myself to cook lunches during the weekends. i'm just plan lazy.

this is what i got:

2 swanson's hungrymen dinners (mexican fiesta)
2 swanson's hungrymen dinners (salisbury steak)
2 stouffer's classics (fish filet)
2 stouffer's pot pies (turkey)

very unhealthy. definitely.

HI SANDHYA - you are now in my blog. but unless you come down for a visit, i really have nothing to talk about that includes you. oh, i was watching "60 minutes " last night, and they were talking about IIT (Indian Institute of Technology), which i figured to be india's equivalent of CalTech or MIT. it's pretty interesting. apparently, it's really hard to get into, and you can't "bribe" your way into it either. you have to be smart, and the courses are very intensitive. the "bill gates" of india, whose name i didn't catch (i started watching after the introduction), founded the school (i'm guessing) and his son couldn't get in, so instead he (the son) went to cornell instead. one guy, who graduated from IIT, said that when he went to the states for his graduate degree (at an ivy league school), he breezed through all his course work cuz it was less strenuous then what was being taught at IIT. imagine that!

my father called me tonight, and asked me to go visit mum and him over in hk later in the month for chinese new year. i'm kinda hestitant about it, cuz i don't particularly like to go back to hk cuz it sucks. not in a bad way, but just that i've been there several times, and it's becoming less exciting. i would, however, like to go back and visit my paternal grandmother's grave. she'd passed away for a little over a year now and i still haven't visited her to pay my respect. also, my parents just got a new flat in hk, and they've raved about the view there (overlooking the harbour and it's supposedly gorgeous at night). i was thinking of going back, but i really wanted to do it later in the year, not this soon. i'm just really stingy about my vacation hours. i want to max out on them so i can get a day's vacation every month. that would be very nice. anyway, i guess i'll go, since there's a lot of celebrating over the new year, and i'll get some money (whoop-di-do)!

i got a new softball glove yesterday at sports chalet up in la canada. it's a pretty decent glove. i didn't want to spend too much money on it, given that i don't know how much i'll be using it. but it's always good to have a glove to play catch with. hmm... now i'm kinda pissed. it's listed as $49.99 online, but i got it for $59.99 at the store. i'm going to have to call them tomorrow and see what the fuck is up with that shit.

song/album of the day: "what i go to school for" by busted (it's some english boy band, but this song is funny as shit. a little teacher/student love if you will)

time stuck in traffic: about 60 minutes. some big rig carrying cars, stopped in the right lane on the 110N because it couldn't clear the overpass. stupid truck drivers.
