Measuring Stuff With Google Maps
Filed Under Life Happenings | 3 Comments
Yesterday, I started swimming again. In the two years I’ve lived at my current residence, with a pool right outside my door, I haven’t actually swam yet. Soon, I recalled why – the pool is quite tiny. It only took a few strokes to get from one side to the other. I briefly wondered just [...]

The Changing You
Filed Under Life Happenings | 1 Comment
As I played some Wii with my coworkers (and lost badly at that tennis game), one of their kids came around the corner. He looked around with large curious eyes, poking at everything. It reminds me of myself as a kid, with everything so new and exciting. Every little thing was a wonder to look [...]

Singing While Running
Filed Under Life Happenings | 4 Comments
Last night as I ran, I started humming some music to take my mind off of how tired I was. It seemed to me that as long as there is oxygen flowing to the muscles in my legs, there is really no reason why I would have to stop. If I don’t pass out from [...]

The Guy Who Keeps Hitting Himself
Filed Under Life Happenings | 1 Comment
As I started singing in opera practice yesterday, I was reminded of a guy I sat next to last year while rehearsing for The Carmina Burana. He was about 40-45, kind of chubby, and doesn’t seem to hear too well. It took a lot to get his attention for stuff. To be honest, he sounded [...]

My Google Ranking For The Keyword “Blockbuster”
Filed Under Life Happenings | Comments Off
As I looked over my google analytics statistics for this website today, I was very surprised to find that two people found this website through the keyword “Blockbuster” on google (as in, they typed Blockbuster into google, and somehow found my site). Apparently, google has indexed my article The Death Of Blockbuster and found it [...]

The Death Of Blockbuster
Filed Under Life Happenings | Comments Off
A couple of months ago, I had walked by Blockbuster at the intersection described in An Accident Waiting To Happen (where the lights changed back in about an hour btw, so no car crash), I happen to look in to see that there were practically no people in there. It was on a major intersection, [...]

Those Strange Dogs
Filed Under Life Happenings | Comments Off
On my way home from dinner today, I passed by a couple of dogs. As I was running (See Always Run), the dogs turned around on their leashes, and started barking and chasing me. Then, I passed by another dog, and the same thing happened. This triggered some memories in my mind where this has [...]

The Bright Spot In My Eyes
Filed Under Life Happenings | Comments Off
As I sat in my chair during opera practice, there came a break where the conductor started working on the women’s parts. I happened to look up at the ceiling and saw a bright light. Similar to my experiences in The Circle Of Lights and Brightness And The Circle of Lights, I saw a nice [...]

An Accident Waiting To Happen
Filed Under Life Happenings | Comments Off
After I returned from my opera practice, I had an urge for some beef jerky. It’s one of my favorite snacks as it’s low in calories and high in protein. Plus, it just tastes good! I put on my shoes, and walked towards the small shopping area two blocks away. I find it particuarly nice [...]
