Wings on Wednesday - 7/16/2008
I missed Tuesday again. oh well, here goes.
だいきらい
- being told, "We're going to switch the work hours from 8am-4:30pm to 7am-3:30pm." Sure, that makes sense since the construction world normally starts at 7am, if not 6am... but still, that means waking up earlier, which means going to sleep earlier, which means less time spent with Mike.
- having DVDs that can't be "backed up". You know what I mean.
- not being able to turn down curry. If there is curry in the pot, I will eat some. and I'll probably end up eating more. and more. it tastes too good to pass up, but it's not good for wanting to keep the weight down.
- fleas. and other biting insects. I think we have fleas, and the PetMeds haven't come in yet.
だいすき
- being one step closer to having a secure job. maybe. do I want to go from one boring job to another?
- going to the movies with Mike. We went with Nick and his sister Emily to see Hellboy II: The Golden Army. It was a great movie. Beautiful, like all del Toro films.
- lunch time. I can get out of the office for a break!
- cheese. because it tastes so good... especially on pizza for lunch.
- my dad's approval to play a different instrument for gagaku. My main instrument is the shō (mouth pipe organ), and he usually makes me play that instrument. Now, I think there are enough shō players strong enough that they don't need my help. So now, I get to play ryūteki (bamboo "dragon" flute) and komabue (Korean flute).
- new toys to tinker with. Nick let me borrow his Sony Cybershot DSC-F828. Digital Still Camera. Not really meant for action shots, but it will be fun to toy with, especially for macro shots.
- preparing to organize my photos and negatives. I bought some plastic sheets to store my negatives and also CDs with digital photos. It might take a while, but I really need to do it. I gotta take some time to look over old photos, even ones from when I was a kid.
- did I mention going to see Hellboy? Yeah, I liked it.
- having parties at our house. I don't like having to clean up for it, but I like the end result of the cleaning and hanging out with friends.
