| Hi friends.
I haven't been able to update xanga because i've been in china and china blocks xanga (in addition to any other blog and youtube). I just found a proxy that allows me access to xanga. It is 2am here and i have to be up in 5 hours so this will be short. I just got back from huangshan this past weekend and it was like having PE 24/7. I hiked up a tall ass mountain that only had stairs with a 20-30lb. backpack on my back. It was also freezing and raining. I'm heading to nanjing this weekend/week and i'm afraid of being angry at japan the whole trip. I'll try to upload pics of the stuff i'm doing but internet is pretty slow here but i think my friends have been tagging me in their albums... :P
Please email me if I ever cross your mind. It makes me very happy to get emails and I miss you all very much.

Today is dad's birthday and my contribution to his birthday dinner is sashimi and beers. Woot.
China is in 5 days.

| I can't help but continue to feel incredibly pressured about the job market.
Last night I tossed and turned in bed for approximately 2 hours trying to calm myself down regarding my life direction. I have 5 months in China to look forward to. WHY am I still stressing about jobs?? I need to take some ambien or smoke some weed.

| I heard an interesting thing in church today.
The pastor was talking about how when tragedy strikes, sometimes people get stuck and feel like they can't go on living or that there's "nothing to live for". When this happens, sometimes the person is unable to see past the problem and is just wallowing in the past and not able to grow as an individual. the pastor urged that despite problems we may face, no matter how helpless it seems, that we should never stop living.
On another note, Happy Chinese New Years my asian comrades. Unfortunately, I don't have any big dinner plans. The mom is in texas, the dad is feeling a little sick, and the bro is in LA, so I will be bringing in the new years quietly at NOLA with a friend from college. But don't feel sorry for me yet, I still got a red envelope. :)
China is in a little over two weeks away. scared/excited/anxious.

| Ever since moving back home, i've started unpacking/throwing away things. What was supposed to be a two day process is now pushing its second week.
I remember when I was still in irvine I threw away all of my frequent buyer cards for boba houses, car-washes and restaurants. It was a little self-realization that there is a high possibility that I may never come back. After throwing away the little things, I proceeded on a full-on throw-shit-away rampage and it was just sorta sad to be saying bye to the last five years of my life.
In palo alto, while cleaning out my closet, I found old papers and notes from highschool. I also threw all of that away. It's so weird to look back and remember all the shit i used to do and the people I used to know. anyway, not really sure what i'm getting at. I guess this is just what i've been thinking about lately.
