So I came home at 9 PM today and was planning on taking a quick nap and then going to the gym. I was pretty tired and figured I would just rest for an hour, lift, come home and be in bed by 12ish. I lied down, closed my eyes and then woke up at 2:30 AM. Oops. The problem with waking up at 2:30 AM is that you are well rested but there are still five more hours until you need to get out of bed. Also it will be incredibly hard to fall back asleep. As I woke up and looked at my clock, I thought about this problem. I was debating on whether or not I should just close my eyes and go back to dreaming about Target, or get up to turn off the light and brush my teeth. I decided since I am now a real adult with a real job, I guess I will get up to brush my teeth. By the way, I am now a manager at Target and seeing all those videos and red and kahkis all day is surprisingly brainwashing. My last three dreams have been Target related in some way. Also just FYI, I still plan on following my dreams in becoming a firefighter someday after I make some money and get rich, but for now, I will just work so I can pay my own rent and pay off student loans. Anyways, so after going against my better judgment, I brushed my teeth and turned off the light. To make a long story short, the time is now 6:11 AM and I have yet to fall asleep. Mostly because of the wrong choice to care for my hygiene and save electricity, but also because I made the decision to open up my laptop. Yes, I decided it would be a good idea to check my e-mail and go on Facebook. This eventually led up to visiting collegehumor.com and then youtubing "Poreotics" for about two hours. All of this was interrupted by failed attempts to sleep, which just resulted in me lying in the dark for about 10 minutes and then turning over and grabbing my laptop for entertainment. Ah... this brings back memories to the summer where this is all I did and I slept at 6 AM everyday. The only differences is back then I didn't have any obligations whatsoever, and now I have to get up for work in an hour.
Also, back then I was probably less Awesome.
Also. Here is a joke I made up about Korean people last week
(I think only I think it's funny)
Q: How many Koreans does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: 3
Two to get mad at each other, and one to screw it in

vday and change
So... About a month ago, I suggested to my girlfriend that maybe we shouldn't celebrate Valentine's Day because it is a total marketing scam and it isn't even a real holiday and also, it only exists because people are just out to get our money. It sounded like a really great idea at the time but after suggesting it, I am now certain it really wasn't a great idea.
For some reason the majority of girls get all giddy about Valentine's Day (even though it isn't a real holiday). I don't really get why girls are so excited about Valentine's Day. Oh wait... maybe because it is a day where they get free shit! What a total scam! Now don't get me wrong. In no way am I going to be boycotting Valentine's Day or anything crazy like that, in fear of getting owned, but I am just pointing out a few observations I have made about this holiday. Yeah it is a total lose-lose situation. I can totally imagine a couple where the dude doesn't do anything special for his girl on Valentine's Day and the girl totally throws a huge fit. And then in the middle of her huge fit the poor guy just merely points out that she had not done anything for him for this day either. But for some reason, that point is totally irrelevant and he gets super owned. Anyways, tough luck dudes. The world is so unfair...
On another note that is totally irrelevant, I really hate coins. Do you know how many quarters I lose a week? Probably a lot. And if you're one of those people who are like "Dude change isn't worth shit." then FUCK YOU! Losing two quarters is like losing fifty cents, and yes I am aware that you can do that math by yourself but losing fifty cents really sucks, especially if you are doing that like every day.
And especially when you have fifty cents in your pocket and then you want to buy something that comes out to be $5.35 and then you take five dollars out of your wallet and then you reach into your pocket to get out your fifty cents that you had and then you realize YOU DON'T HAVE IT ANYMORE. (because you lost it). Now you have to take ANOTHER dollar out of your wallet and receive sixty five cents in return. WOW! You totally could have just spent five dollars and got an extra fifteen cents back but, NO! You had to spend six dollars and get two more quarters, a dime and a nickle that you will eventually lose. HOW STRESSFUL IS THAT?
The answer is very.
Now, you may be thinking "Albert, why is it that you are complaining about loose change when you can easily just use your debit or credit card on your purchases?" Well friend, this is because I saw on the news that it is been proven that people generally spend less when they pay for things with cash instead of card, but what they forgot to do was to factor in was the part where people lose the coins they get in change. Damn you, ABC.
PS. Dear Aunt Celine, if you read this, sorry about the swearing earlier on. I couldn't think of another way to express myself on the topic of losing change.

i have a lot of time
Damn. Right now, I got nothing but time. No more school at UCI, the place I was working at went out of business and I am taking an online class that takes about 30 minutes a week. The only thing that sucks about having so much free time is that nobody else has free time like me. I think just about every day I ask like the same five people if they want to eat or go out to drink at night or whatever and every day they tell the same thing. They have school and work. I am always slightly sad when they tell me they can't hang out but, then again, on the inside I am secretly happy I don't have their responsibilities right now. Mondays and Saturdays are exactly the same to me. Yes ma'am, I am living the life.
Anyways, I remembered my earlier post in January I told you that in three months time I was going to be hella ripped. Well, it has been about a month and I am definitely not on my way to becoming hella ripped. Actually, I think I lost weight AND got fatter. So... I think I am currently on the track to becoming very disappointed. I don't know what it is but I constantly set physical goals for myself and constantly fail. I probably do this at least four times a year.
Well this post probably isn't going to be very long since I am already out of stuff to write about. I currently am doing nothing. It is 6 PM and all I did today was wake up and eat a subway sandwich. Well I also left the house in order to buy the sandwich which required a little bit of extra work.
