Motivation
Something from my friend, who I will refer to only as Dubya, that was profound and hilarious at the same time:
I had a really weird dream last week about "motivation".
One of the Baldwins were lecturing me on how to stay motivated in life. He was asking me what I wanted out of life. I said, "I dunno". He said, "You have to want something. Whatever it is you want, think about the actions you need to take to reach that goal." Then I saw him stealing my red envelopes from Chinese New Year. I started punching him in the side, and he told me that I passed the test. He said I needed to speak up.
Drowning
It's not often I get caught up with the lyrics of a song, and it's not a particularly new one either, but for whatever reason I am completely enamored with this song right now. The lyrics and the melody are beautiful. Everything about the song is beautiful.

Rush
Pull me under
The world is at my feet
It’s no wonderYour eyes speak to me
They tell me be calm
They tell me be strongSwimming out so deep
Now I can’t breathe
And it’s exactly where I belongCause it feels like a run of a lifetime
And nothing’s gonna save us now
Let the waves come crashing downCause it feels like I’m right for the first time
And everytime I take you in
I feel my heart skip a beat againI am drowning in your love
Cause I’m drowning in your loveLove
It’s taking over
There is no in between till I find me some coverThe tide is coming, I dont know if I can take it
I lose my focus, lose my focus
With every breath I feel my inhibition breaking
I can’t control it, no no no…Cause it feels like a ride of a lifetime
And nothing’s gonna save us now
Let the waves come crashing downCause it feels like I’m right for the first time
And everytime I take you in
I feel my heart skip a beat again
I’m drowning in your love
Chinese New Year Cleaning
My roommate J went out for a friend's birthday last night while his gf V spent nearly 3 hours cleaning the apartment (I helped a bit too) for the Chinese new year. Think of it as a spring cleaning type of ritual that happens during CNY.
Their conversation after J comes home:
J: Oh . . . the apartment looks clean.
V: We spent 3 hours cleaning this place!
J: Really? It didn't look like a 3 hour job. I would have cleaned it in 1.
V: Really now J? You're telling me you would have done what we did in 3 hours in 1 hour? :::rolls eyes:::
Me: Damn J. That is not what you say to your gf after she spent hours cleaning while you were out drinking!
We Are All One
I tried to write up my thoughts from a really deep and insightful day of conversation and experience with my boy The Perpetual Ponderer, but wasn't really able to come up with a good entry. He hit all the ideas in his blog post though, so click on that link and check it out.
LISTEN TO MY BOY GENKI SUDO!
