I gotta apologize: this has not been a good week for me. Hell, this whole year was screwy. Apart from work, the stress, the rookies messing up so bad I wouldn't doubt it they were doing it just to piss us off, to just plain old bad luck. For instance, as it would see fit, the freakin' power goes out on the whole island, just when I'm about to download Crysis on my computer. I can swear that this happened solely to piss ME off. As such, I'm still convinced of my "Post-Christmas Bad Luck" that happens every single year. Not to mention prior to the Christmas preparations, some dickhead decided to order five dozen brownies a day...for almost a damn month! Then his finale was to order twelve dozen, and as an added F-You, recieved a 25% rebate... But, today seemed like a fine day. Work was good, got out early, electricity was back on, my mom seemed to enjoy her new Blackberry Touch, found the VERY LAST Blu-Ray copy of Resident Evil Degeneration (seriously, I had to go to three different stores just to find the well hidden final copy), and I'm waiting for Crysis to load. And in a strange twist of fate, finally found a cover for my Ipod Touch that suited my standards (really, now, it shouldn't be this hard to find a case that protects the vital part...it should be a mandatory item). Also found a laptop case that actually held all the things I need for my computer...it's a rather unique laptop: the power brick is the same size as the freakin' Xbox's, man. Hell, even the lemon meringue pies I was making had no flaws...the mix was a blend of thick yet still watery solution that I've always favored. (Don't mind me, just a nerd-baker thing) You know, it's easier to form without having to tear off the whole topping. It goes rather smoothly, and looks nicer. Which begs the question: for every good day I recieve, I usually get a week of hell. Is my bad luck streak ending any time soon? Because all that's happened in 2008 is really too f*cked up to just be coincidence. Well, like a good friend told me, it's a Japanese belief that 23 is the bad luck age for us...well, technically, I'm a believer. So, I'm going to cherish this day. I'll prepare for tomorrow, since the odds of that day starting to suck is a 75/25. After all, I still gotta prepare for New Years Day...( who the hell buys pies on New Year's!? ) Well, at least this miserable year is almost over...and as added insurance, I turn 24 on the 25th, so I don't have to wait that long for this stupid "curse." Man, being Asian is a real pain in the ass. If I'm not pissing off a ghost, it's just my bad luck year. Well, take care friends.
