I had been slacking quite a bit in terms of exercises over the last 7 days; I’m not even going to put blames of the Thanksgiving holidays, because I was just feeling plain lazy.
The big price that I have to pay for being a slacker, are the feeling of losing muscle tone and endurance at the same time. I f*&king hate that feeling, it makes me feel guilty.
Anyway my plan this weekend is to head out for a 5 mile run on Sunday, and go grocery shop for some whole food and lots of complex carb.
Christmas season is right around the corner!
As a way to say thank you to all my loyal readers, I would like you guys to take a minute and email me your mailing address to alex at thesoupdujour dot com, and I promise I will mail you a Christmas Holiday Card.
I hate how everything has to be politically correct now days.
First 10 people who email me their address are entitle to receive a limit edition Christmas card designed by me.
The click wheel on my ipod is completely shit to bed. 3 days without my ipod is like 3 days without water in the Sahara.
Here are my dilemmas; I really like the new 1 gig shuffle because of its extreme compact size and the $79.00 price tag, but since it is a shuffle it will not have the playlist/artist feature (Imagine going through 200 + songs by only pressing the next and previous button). Then I started to look at the new 4 gig Nano $199.00, the question is “Is it worth paying that extra $120.00 to have the extra 3 gig of space and the playlist/artist feature?†And last but not least if I’m willing to pay $199.00 for a Nano, should I just suck it up and pay the extra $50.00 to get the 30 gig video ipod.
Somehow the price tag for a new mp3 player went from $79.00 to $250.00.
What should I do? Which one should I get?
Shuffle, Nano or Video Ipod?
Help me out guys!!
My New England trip was lots of fun. I got to hang out with my buddy Taylor, see my parent’s new home in Providence, oh and I also saw a è”¡ä¾æž—concert at the Mohegan Sun Casino. Even though her music is really not my cup of tea, but she was definitely fun to watch.
Below are a few drunken pictures of me, Taylor and Maria (I think that is her name) at Faneuil Hall
Cab ride to Faneuil Hall $20.00
2 UFO Hefeweizen and 2 Shots of Jamerson $24.00
Singing the å°‘æž—è¶³çƒ é‡‘å‰›è…¿ éµé 功 duets with Taylor while we were intoxicated in an irish pub was just Priceless
For those of you who don’t know the song, here is a clip of the song from the original film shaolin soccer with subtitle
After work today I went to the book store and bought a new book called Leaving Microsoft to Change the World, I remembered the first time when I came across this book title; I thought it meant let’s see what Microsoft can do to change the world.
Of course I was wrong; this book is actually about the author John Wood who once was the marketing director of Microsoft and now the founder of a nonprofit organization Room to Read.
I can’t really talk about it too much, since I only read the first chapter, but here is a brief video of John Wood talked about his dream and passion to change the world. Enjoy High ResWithout a Paddle: Nature’s Calling video or Low Res
Stupidity seems like the perfect word to describe my evening last night.
1:20 am front door at the Old Toad British pub Me: Sir may I see some ID please Angry Black Male: Nigger I just want to get some food Me: I’m sorry sir, you cannot come in unless you show me your ID ABM:Shut up you don’t even fucking work here nigger. Me: umm I do work here sir, and by the way the kitchen is closed for the evening. ABM: Get the fuck out of my way, I’m coming in and I ain’t showing you no ID nigger. Me: I dare you to try, and I can guarantee you will spend a night in jail ABM: What you going to do nigger, karate my black ass! Me: Just leave before I call the cops.
