  • Day 2

    It's the second day of Project Untitled. I feel disconnected from the world. I may still be on the internet at times but without aim or facebook, my friends no longer contact me. It's understandable since we never really used email or the phone to keep in touch.

    It feels as if I'm back in high school when I had nothing to do but study. I've been much more productive because  every time I drift towards the computer to check facebook or aim, I remember that I promised to myself to seek out better ways to deal with my time.

    It seems to be clicking now though. I'm much more vigilant with what's going on in my mind. I start to think, "Oh I'll put that off to later." I would usually go into indifference mode and let it slide. Now I go and act out what I want to do. Much like my work today.

    However, I still couldn't get up to go to the gym despite my alarm ringing at 5 until 6.  I do plan on going in the evening but I really wanted to go twice a day. That way I don't have to overwork myself in one setting. Instead, I'd divide the workload and let my body rest in between. I'm sure it'll have bigger gains since I jump start my body at two points in the day.

    Yesterday, I went to Mike's to watch the Patriots game. It was exciting watching Brady and Moss connect. Afterwards, we played some music. Dashboard Confessional's Stolen.  The song is intensely easy although the vocals is difficult. Listening to Mike and Kiet play their instruments while I tried to sing a note was difficult. I don't think I'm cut out for singing. My voice is mediocre at best anyways. Now, we need someone to sing vocals and a drummer. Ah well.

    Saturday night, we went down to Tokyo restaurant down near the Loop in Methuen. We were there to accompany Trung who went with his cousin to celebrate Tina Vu's birthday. At the end of that dinner, the waitress came out with a cake and we all sang Happy Birthday. At the end of the song, Kiet and I forgot who else sang out "She bang. She bang." much like William Hung did in American Idol. In response, the staff at the bar sang out "She bang. She bang." in sync as a response. That truly topped the night.

    That's it for now, will keep things up to date and try to write in a better way next time.
