So San Jose got eliminated by Edmonton 4-2. Very Sad.
Summer has been good so far, but short. Leaving for China in 12 days.
Got some friend requests from people graduating HS on Facebook. Time flies. I remember when I was first started an account on it. Actually it was Luis who started one for me. I can't believe I'll be 21 in 6 months.
My dad sent me this email about Age by George Carlin:
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions.
"How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on five! That's the key.
You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead. "How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16!
And then the greatest day of your life . . . you become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony . . . YOU BECOME 21. YESSSS!!!
But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk. He TURNED; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're just a sour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed?
You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away. Before you know it, you REACH 50 . . .. and your dreams are gone.
But wait!!! You MAKE it to 60. You didn't think you would! So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60.
You've built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it's a day-by-day thing; you HIT Wednesday! You get into your 80s and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you TURN 4:30; you REACH bedtime.
And it doesn't end there. Into the 90s, you start going backwards; "I Was JUST 92."
Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again. "I'm 100 and a half!"
May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!
I've been trying to make an effort to take advantage of each day but some days are inevitably lost.
I continue to have weird dreams about people who I should no longer concern my self with, yet there they are in my dreams. I'm not sure what to make of it.
I took a midnight walk around the lake last night. It was filled with lovers sitting on the grassy shore, wrapped in blankets, having soft spoken conversations. It's times like those that make me wish for someone to share such moments with. My impatience in the matter is truly a weakness, but I can't seem to help it. I want that perfect woman, and I want her now.
May you all find your soul mate.
Good night and sweet dreams.
