Sunday, December 21, 2003 Having something stolen from you probably feels as crappy as eating day-old sushi: It'll never "sit right" in your stomach. BC's car got stolen on Wednesday evening (Dec 17) from from the car-port at home! Luckily though, CY's acquired a brand new used Honda Civic just days before. I just have to say Timing was *really* good. The good news is the cops recovered it and it's in some impounding station in San Jose. It almost felt like I lost something. Then again, I ride in that car practically everyday, so that's justified. hahaha On to the fun stuff...Tuesday night a rather large group of current and former-interns-turned-fulltimers invaded Yoshi's in Oakland. This place was a sushi joint/Jazz club. We all went to see the Charlie Hunter Trio. I was extremely impressed by this group especially the Charlie Hunter. The 8-stringed guitar he was playing looked like it was an extension of his body or something. It's hard to explain with words so I wont. Live Jazz performance is really something. Putting Sushi & Jazz together....That's just uber-trendy. The meal wasn't cheap, I ended up forking out almost $30 that night on "okay" sushi....I think the shows was worth it too. While I have the topic of money in mind, I think I will rant a bit. I've been spending too much $$$ and it sucks. Eating out is fun, but eating out 7 days in a row is not good! I remember going to the ATM every other day, taking out $60 each time. I think I've gone way over my usual food expenses this week. I thin it's now at around $150 and still going up =( My new year resolution: Don't eat out so often. I am really looking forward to go back to TO. The weather won't be great but at least all my friends and family will be there. At the same time I'm a bit scared because people change and 6 months is a long time. I hope they don't find me all weird and stuff. It's a bit selfish on my part to expect that everyone's life just suddenly stops and wait for my eventual return. I'd be pretty flattered if that happened though. What else...Oh yea, my boss gave me a Christmas present yesterday! Although it's just a box of chocolate it was really nice of him to do that and it's good for the work morale of the employees (i.e. me!) posted by Ben | | | 3:15 AM |
