<p>wow, where do i resume with updating you? &nbsp; it's pretty much impossible to stay on track with updating. &nbsp; marginal benefits... i don't think i'm getting a satisfactory return on investment with my journal entries!
<p>[later] on monday night, the beautiful <a href="http://www.realestatesforcharity.com" target="new">kaela hwang</a> n' i went to grace and steve's house to give a belated first birthday present to nolan. &nbsp; originally, i thought i'd bring kaela to dinner and a movie afterwards; but she got a call on her cell phone about some private chiropractic lessons. &nbsp; instead; we drove home; picked up my laptop and sooni; drove through the jack in the box drive-thru to get some greasy, fattening dinner; and then drove to fremont for kaela's private class. &nbsp; i worked on my company work as i waited, then was used as a prop for the lessons. &nbsp; well, even though it hardly the night i planned, i guess i came out okay.
<p>tuesday night, i went to taekwondo practice by myself. &nbsp; originally, i was supposed to rush down to oakridge mall to meet up with some old high school friends for dinner at p.f. chang's there; but when i called after practice, they deemed that i was too late to join them in any effective manner. &nbsp; instead, i dined with duk at 옛날 짜장 yeitnal jjajang, where i ate the 짜장면과 짬뽕 국물 jjajangmyuhngwa jjambbong googmool (jjajangmyuhn/jiajiangmine with jjambong/chamamien soup on the side). &nbsp; it was quite a bit of food, so i took home leftover 짜장면. &nbsp; duk suggested that i join him, yuna, sara, and other friends for snowboarding on saturday. &nbsp; well, since kaela will be at yet another chiropractic seminar; maybe if i finish my housechores by saturday, then i'll join them. &nbsp; i also need to do base repair to my snowboard.<br><br><br>
