May 30 Confusion Rise
March 07 there is time to end Today, Mar 7th, 2009, it is the last day of circuit city, one of the biggest electronics stores in the United states. Tomorrow, the name will be gone forever.
It is sad to see there is nothing left but empty shelves in the store, 35000 empolyees will lose their job. there will be no more red text on yellow circle with red background, it will be only in memories. Since the beginning of this financial crisis, this is not unusual at all. Forclosure for homeowners, bankrupcy for companies, these things just seem natual now, as it is said there is time to start there is time to end.
To me, it is just sad, I made almost 80% of my big electronic puchases there: TV, computer, digital recorder, camera, and GPS. My first electronic in US is bought there too. it is kind of lost when I need something, and they are just not there.
Just a couple of years ago, Circuit city even opened more stores, I always go there, even just looking around. I think I will be more lost when the time passes by, who knows what will happen next. the things you don't even think about, they become natural( they are always there), will not be there for me anymore.
Sad for an electronic store, Sad for the people work there, Sad for me.
Sun drops its last shine in Sky, it is time to close, it is time to end. January 07 the world of bills I began to know there are bills in this world when I was 18. however, at that age I would never expect there are a whole lot of them, and the number and types seems a infinity as I grew older. The normal utilties: the electricity, Gas, water, trash, sewer, the home phone, then the extra as we are in 21st century: the cable, internet, cell phone, satilite TV, and then comes the ones when you did own something: all the creidt cards payment, the auto payment and its insurance, the skyhigh health insurance, medical payments, and worst one: you either pay the rent or the house mortgage+ property tax, and the stupid HOA fees (home owners associations). oh, how can I forget about the truly painful experience of my TAX bill.
The question is that why there are so many source of bills that we litterally struggle and worry about everyday, when we only have one or two source of income. everyday seems just like (no it is ) due date for something, I just need to constantly tracking on all of them otherwise if you are late, you will pay extra lates fees, fines, financial charges.
I really wanted to live in a world that is bill free, I even doubt if there are bills in our after life.
I am sinking in bills, since I was 18, and now I am 28. "fouturnatlly", I will sink deeper and deeper for the next 50 years.
I need help and hope, maybe we all need.
October 27 traffic on nowhere I truly believed it was just a coincidence, I got stuck on highway 5, on Angeles mountian section, Again, the only difference is this time it's on way down to Los Angeles, as last time was on way back to bayarea. I think I am way too "lucky" to get stuck in pretty much the same spot again for hours. God, two hours, not even moved two miles, the whole high way on mountian is just like a huge parking lot. Maybe someone think it is no big deal, because traffic is everywhere, but what if it is after almost five hours of driving since 5 o' clock that morning. I really don't think most of people can bear this. 5 hours of driving, 2 hours in this stupid "parking lot"( if it is really a parking lot, at least I can just shut down the car, not worry about moving at all), and 1 hour detour for taking a chanllenge on the another mountain path more than like the one in "Initial D" by speeding, I don't even know from the begining why I am doing this to myself. it may gives "traffic" a whole new meaning.
it seems that few people know the other way around, when I re-enter the highway after the an hour detour, no one seems to follow up from behind, how ironic, the reason I know how to detour is because I get to stuck at the same spot last year, getting out of the highway parking lot by using Jeeps off road ability to climb off the hill to the exit. OH, that exit means everything to me at that time. This time I was not even lucking enough to get to an exit, I made an U-turn on the only spot that the seperating wall is missing. anyway, Seeing is believing: here is how bad it is.
July 30 Doomed with high Tech Today, I lost all my prior pictures, period. I possibly tried everything in order to save my pics, everything failed. oh, God.
I have to face it,I lost all my pictures through the years. To me, it seems like all the past memories have suddenly go blank.
what I should do? the only pics I can still see are the ones post on my blog month ago. how ironic, because I thought computer is
not reliabe, it crashed several times before, I saved all my pics in the stupid sonly memory stick card. Now neither my sony desktop, nor
my sony camera recognize the stupid memory stick pro duo card which only can be used in sony electronics. I even tried it in my sony PSP,
same result, all these sony family members don't want to addmit this poor little sony stick is a member . oh, God, I am so frustrated.
I begin to think somehow the " hign tech" is not such a great thing that ever happend to the human world. The digital world seems so
cold and cruel to me now. it is not like the old fashioned photo, it is still warm right after the print out and you can even keep the film to
