MisFortune Cookie
The past two weeks has been a total disaster for me brought by one fortune cookie (or I might say misfortune cookie) that I got at Lucy Ho's Chinese Buffet Restaurant (a recommended place to eat here at Tallahassee)... It says at the cookie that "Good things will not come to you in some weeks prepare for the worst.." My first reaction about what I have seen is "Huh? What? Oh well it's just a mere fortune cookie..." It proved me wrong! Really wrong!
When I got out of the restaurant, my misfortunes started like slipping off the floor, having a very slow kart at the GoKart Stations, receiving only 1 ticket at the Deal or No Deal game in FunStation, not having a free spin at the Wheel of Fortune game while others get to have it, and others. There were two things I won't forget brought by that damn misfortune cookie.
First was I got a BOO sign from beautiful girls in the place they consider as Karaoke Bar... This was brought by my forever f***k stage fright when it comes to singing to people... Why did I sang a song?? Cause we (together with my team lead) were forced to sing because in that way our bosses would be happy... T_T
Lastly, I got corrected with my diction for the first time here in the US... I am pronuncing the place called Wacissa during my chit chat with one of the team leads here (my neighboring cube), which we normally do everyday and she corrected me with matching hand gestures... She said it should be Wa(schwa)cissa not Wacissa... amf! hehehe... After she corrected me, I started to stammer... T_T
I still don't know if the misfortune cookie was still in effect... waaahhh... hehehe... T_T

Confused Nationality
I've been away from my home country for several months already and i'm starting to get used to the environment i've been to right now... There are no air pollution (aside from the smoke emitted by cigarettes) and I seldom got colds in this place (only reason behind it is due to a very cold weather when it rains.) Rains in this place are called thunderstorms which equates to signal number 1 or 2 at the Philippines... hehehe...
Anyway... Most people around here are getting confused about my nationality... None of them has given me a right nationality... Most of them sees me as a JAPANESE person... Some of them are accusing me a MALAYSIAN, AMERICAN FROM HAWAII, SPANISH, and KOREAN... hehehe...

Revolutionized Transformation
after staying away from home I have been revolutionized to a different extent...
Before
- I have a perfect diet
- I am just a passenger in every roadtrip looking for some sights
- I am a jolly person
- I am a smiling person
- I am a talkative person
- Talking to myself sometimes
- Don't know how to cook except fried stuffs
Now
- My diet was abnormal already due to the fact several buffets are around our place
- "Certified Map Navigator and Road Navigator" -> Since I became a navigator during our trips, we never get lost... hehehe... My motto in every roadtrip...
"We are not lost. We are just finding our way to our destination." and "For ar long as there are arrows we are not lost" ^_^
So I must say... "I am the prince of the road..." hahaha... -> Self Proclaimed... hahahaha... ^_^
- My jollyness has been reduced. why? Maybe I'm just not comfortable enough to everyone.
- I have become a less talkative person as well as it lessens my smiling face.
- I already know how to cook my favorite dish which is Sinigang na Baboy... hehehe... Adobo is still on the process because I ruined the Adobo I made.. (very salty due to lots of kikkoman I've placed... hahahaha...)
I have also experienced a very unscrupulous act recently... somebody stole my facial wash and one of my new shirts I bought... The brand of the shirt was Guess which I bought for $15 dollars... grrrr... anyway I can't do anything since it's already lost and the management of the inn keeps on telling me: "You should keep your belongings to a safe place" DUH! Shirts are a neccessity and must not be placed to the luggage everytime it's a waste of time... AMF! If somebody stole my mickey mouse then it should be another story... bwahahaha...
hehehe... ^_^

My First Nightlife Experience outside Philippines and other stuffs.
While most of my friends are having fun at the beach or at the pool last Saturday at the Philippines, I spent my time at Orlando with the Dream Theater concert with some of my teammates at work... hehehe...
Compared to the Hard Rock in the Philippines, here is much bigger and much nicer ambiance... hehehe... We had a weird experience that time and it was my first time to do it and luckily, it was here in USA... hahaha... By the way, Hard Rock in Orlando was located at the Universal Studio grounds beside the NBA restaurant... Prices of every stuffs were so high like buying a water would cost you $3.00 already.. (which is around 120 pesos already...) hehehehe...
Anyway, the weird experience that I'm talking about is that we went there with no tickets at hand... We had an opportunity to buy it online but we decided not to and took the risk... When we arrived there, it was sold out... We thought of ways on how to earn a ticket and after sometime, somebody approached me and asked me if I'm looking for a ticket... I was shocked cause I haven't uttered a single word and yet he offered me a ticket... hehehe... After I bought a ticket to him, I realized that he has a soft voice and walks criss cross and concluded... "waaa... bakit ganun lapitin pa din ako ng mga ummmm kahit saan kahit kailan... " hahaha... By 9:00 we entered already and some front acts... Dream Theater showed up at around 10:30 pm and ended the show by 12:15 pm... Main acts in the Philippines only sing 3-5 songs but here it was 10 songs 7-10 minutes long... Dream Theater was a cool rock band... They had a keyboardist that was a monster... As well as the drummer which has three drum sets but he strikes it all... The bass guitar was cool and the lead guitar was a real monster... hahaha... The vocalist has a high range for a guy...
After the concert we watch Narnia.. it was cool... hehehe....
Adding something... hehehe... before we went to Orlando, we tried to get to the Kennedy Space Shuttle where a space shuttle launched... We failed to see the actual size of the space shuttle but we do see how it get to the space... Reason why? It's because of sooo many toll plazas that it robbed me almost 7 dollars... TRAFFIC!!! hahaha...
That's all... ^_^
