Best Christmas Present & Stalking Babies
This is a long set up (and the image will make sense later).
1. So we have table topics at our Toastmasters meetings, in which anyone could contribute on a given topic. Last time around, the question was “how has the economy affected your holiday spirit?”
I answered that I can see some bright side effects of [...]

Year in Review 2008: Personal
I’m home for the final time this year before heading back to the Bay for 2009. It’s scary to think that we’re already closing in on the last year of 00s. It’s been a growing year. At 24, I realize that I have more capabilities at hand and more potential than I ever did as [...]

I got an email today from someone who said he found my blog buy googling ‘going on vacation by myself’ or something like that. I’m planning on getting places alone, so I can visit friends, which is probably what I meant at the time. Well, I ended up writing him quite a lengthy email with [...]

From God to Godless to Godfull
Three thoughts:
“San Francisco is godless.”
I paraphrase but that’s what my friend told me over dinner last night. Why? SF is hugely liberal, progressive and largely accepting and non-religious.
.
“Apple evokes a similar response to a religious experience.”

Well, I call bullshit.

Pointy Hat & Ears
I originally posted this on my PR Agency blog, slice, but love it so much that I thought I’d repost here.
.
Maybe it’s the fresh smell of pine in our SF office lobby or the gigantic Christmas ornaments next to the pyramids down the street, I’m just feeling all in the ‘holiday’ spirit today.
No… no… I [...]

Tick Tock Tick Tock
I woke up this morning not being able to tell if the almighty “fate” is trying to say something to me or if my body’s just frustrated by a lack of settling someone down.
Let me explain. The alarm sounded at 7, which it always does because I like waking up @ several intervals before I [...]
