Lowell Dunham, the oldest and greatest colleague from my previous company. A man who I look up to and his sense of humor makes us laugh all the time. It was a great honor working with him, especially he is full of knowledge of life and his professions-furniture field. Today, he still continues to work at age of 88 although he has lived more than 3/4 century and should forced to retire and enjoy the rest of his life....yet, he enjoys his career to this moment still..
Like he said, he knows after he retired he pro. will be dead in half a year, so why not keep himself busy and he rather loves it..
His lovely wife-Linda (80), a lovely and caring woman who takes a perfect care for him. Wish we all can live like them happily ever ..... =)

They both looks amazing at their age, u agree w/ me?!

Day 1-ISAKUSA

Life is like HOT CHOCOLATE

2008-09-09T21:39:00.001-07:00

A group of graduates, well established in their careers, were talking at
a reunion and decided to go visit their old university professor, now
retired. During their visit, the conversation turned to complaints
about stress in their work and lives. Offering his guests hot
chocolate, the professor went into the kitchen and returned with a large
pot of hot chocolate and an assortment of cups - porcelain, glass,
crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling
them to help themselves to the hot chocolate.

When they all had a cup of hot chocolate in hand, the professor said:
"Notice that all the nice looking, expensive cups were taken, leaving
behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want
only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and
stress. The cup that you're drinking from adds nothing to the quality
of the hot chocolate. In most cases it is just more expensive and in
some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted
was hot chocolate, not the cup; but you consciously went for the best
cups... And then you began eyeing each other's cups.

Now consider this: Life is the hot chocolate; your job, money and
position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and
contain life. The cup you have does not define, nor change the quality
of life you have. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail
to enjoy the hot chocolate God has provided us. God makes the hot
chocolate, man chooses the cups.

The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make
the best of everything that they have.

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. And enjoy
your hot chocolate.

Life

2008-09-02T00:04:00.000-07:00

有時一件事一句話可以想得很簡單或是想得很複雜,全都是因人而異
愈不快樂時,總會覍得事事都不順,樣樣都不對,沒有一樣合自己的意思
人生苦短,有時失去了,可能一輩子都追不回來了
對我而言,人生是很快樂很幸福的,不要去比較,去計較,在乎的太DETAIL,反而會過得很累
我們都是很辛福的,雖沒有名車可以開,豪宅可以住,及那些珠光宝氣的名錶,鑽石在身上
我都不在乎,我知道我的人生是很幸福的,有許多愛我的家人朋友們及一份穩定的工作
媽媽也常說,年輕本就要努力辛苦,要不怕吃苦,會理財,一定會有出頭天的一天

First day of work after almost a year break, Super sleepy n Weird!

Job Hunting

2008-06-23T23:33:00.000-07:00

I was so stressful and worried about no job during my break in the past 3 and half months. Interviewing almost 3 times a week or sometimes no interview at all and you never know what will be next, maybe rejected by the company, call for interviews or silence for the whole week and all you can do is keep sending out the resumes to numerous of companies as many as you could.

I was very upset after the second months because I felt so useless and hopeless even thinking to work as a file clerk or any position, which I can call a job and careless how much the pay is, as long as I HAVE A FREAKING JOB.

Honestly, I am super sick of interviewing, esp. repeating words constantly, was interviewed by many many people and fill out the application million of times etc... Finding a right position does consume a long period time and patiences; I tried so many ways to overcome my insecurity and of course HE comforts me a lot, too. Without him, I don't know where will I be now and maybe back to my hometown, Taiwan. Thank You, baby. Fortunately, I finally got job offers in the middle of June and I am no longer need to go through torturing process anymore. yeah yeah yeah :)

I was first got the offer at apparel company as an apparel production coordinator, unfortunately, the assistant, she has decided to stay with the company and my offer got withdraw. SUX! I was super excited working in fashion industry and now just feel like whatever. Maybe it is not the right position for myself.

Last Friday, I have made my final decision to work as an account coordinator at canned food importer and I am totally new to the food industry even it is not my first choice. I will still work my ass off and learn as much as I could to show my ability. Good luck to myself and to whoever is looking for a job currently. YOU WILL FIND IT AS LONG AS YOU PUT EFFORTS IN IT. GOOD LUCK :)

2008-05-28T13:13:00.000-07:00

BACON(we named it), who was found at the corner of our front apt and drinking the mud water in the mid of night. We kept him for a night since we do not know where he lives and obviously, he is too cute to let go. You wouldn't believe what had happened while his staying over the night. He was having insane and severe diarrhea which was so smelly and disgusting to wake us up in the mid of night n very early morning. Jeremy n I got up twice only for cleaning up his SHITS yew... Next day, we do not see any post neither in our neighborhood nor internet and we took him out w/ us to Travis n Andrea's house to hang out. All of our friends love n adore him so much and he definitely brings us so much fun together as well. Later the night, we were taking him a walk for poo-poo n pee-pee; all the sudden, he stopped at one of our neighbors' house and my six sences tells me straightly, it might be the one and I gave a shot to ring the bell. He was right n this is his home n the owner was devastated looking for him the whole day. He was so happy after he got home n we all had a good time with him, except the diarrhea part. THANKS FOR BRINGING THE JOY TO US n WE WILL MISS YOU, BACON =)

This poor little guy was stuck b/w the fences n HE saw it while he was walking home from his car. You can see the blood on the fences if look closed to it. Meanwhile, its friends were up in the air calling more friends over. I was running around to see if anyone can rescure him. My friend, SHE even contacted with the "animal pxxxxxl" regards this emergency, you know what happen after u called, you got to transfer from dept. to dept. n they got many excuses to push it back, therefore, we have decided to go to help this guy ourselves as we do not want to see him dying on the fences.

Battle at Kruger

2008-05-08T16:48:00.001-07:00

DON'T MESS WITH THE BUFFALO!

It was taken from a vehicle on the opposite side of the waterhole, the video begins with the herd of buffalo approaching the water, unaware of the lions resting nearby. The lions charge and disperse the herd, picking off a young buffalo and unintentionally knocking it into the water while attempting to make a kill. While the lions try to drag the buffalo out of the water, it is grabbed by a pair of crocodiles, who fight for it before giving up and leaving it to the lions. The lions sit down and prepare to eat, but are quickly surrounded by the reorganized buffalo, who move in and begin charging and kicking at the lions. After a battle which sees one lion being tossed into the air by a buffalo, the baby buffalo (which is miraculously still alive) escapes into the herd. The emboldened buffalo chase the remainder of the lions away.
