As I started working years ago and earning my buck, I started looking into buying PC games online and at stores like Future Shop and Best Buy. I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I do love games from time to time.
EA Games introduced DRM into some of their games and will continue to do so in all of their future titles. Now, there are two types of DRM. 1) Code-based, unlimited installations and 2) Online registration based, up to 3 or 5 installations. Continue reading »
It has been two nights since further drama ensued between the Jenbert combination and Patrick and Leeman. I contemplated on whether I want to post my thoughts up or not and for the better of me, I didn’t want to because I feel that I am defending myself against an unnecessary foe. I eventually chose to because I dislike being stepped on and I dislike twisted reasoning.
I’ve only seen Patrick ‘blow-up’ three times in my life knowing him. I know he’s blown up at least one other time in Japan. During the Saturday talk with Albert and Jenny, he eventually blew up and kept saying, “Wow.”
Yeah, wow indeed. Continue reading »
Erica has aided in heightening my perception of reality. I was aware of the idea years before, but it didn’t quite occur to me until very recently that there is no universally shared reality. Reality is relative to the person perceiving it. Reality incorporates three things: perception, process and conclusion. Within the layer of process, a person goes through a rapid filtering of ideas influenced by emotions, upbringing, past experiences, witness to external factors and moods of the moment.
This has made me realize that my reality is different than the reality of others. What sparked it off was when Erica was explaining the nth time to me about her reality of our situation or rather, her situation. This particular thought sparked just now, a few moments ago before I decided to enter this entry, that though we both are living in reality, the reality we both live in are not the same, even if the awareness factor of reality was there from the beginning. Her capabilities share her reality and so does mine. Just because I can see it happening, she might not due to the situations that hinder our realities.
This realization of reality has also broadened my awareness and perception of other subjects such as religion/faith, lifestyles and even relationships with people and things. If only there are people in this world that share this heightened awareness and perception with me.
Unity and progression by ridding excess.
Arguments ensue. Personal ideas develop. Feelings result. I’ve always lived an easy going life especially when death follows me so closely. People don’t realize this until death hounds them at their feet. They just don’t understand. They just don’t see it nor feel it.
Erica once asked me what comes after death. To many that follow a religion or a ‘faith’, what comes after death is eternity with their god. Of course, we never really know for sure. What they ’see’ or ‘feel’ or ‘hear’ inside their minds and hearts when they’re living, could be anything. Since I am not a part of their ‘faiths’, I am myself. I have an unlabeled spiritual relationship with the universe.
I take it as it comes.
Mel asked me, what is going on with me these days. To put it as simply as possible, the longer I am human, the more separated I become from this human body. I am aware of this human that is me. I am aware of me. I am aware of the entity that represents Leeman.
Mel, are you aware of the body that is you?
Like Albert, I don’t like to give up on a problem that can easily be fixed, when in fact, the problem isn’t even supposed to be a problem in the first place. Unlike Albert, I do have a threshold of intolerance. Kudos to him for such massive tolerance. Which makes me wonder if a chef with a large cucumber rimmed Albert gently for hours, how tolerable will he really be?
If she is willing to rid the excess in her and over time, upgrade herself which leads to solidity, I am willing to aid her in her journey. I have a million light years of patience but I only have about a meter of tolerance.
By the way, those bunnies were taken at the high school near my house. I have a feeling they are the descendants of Cookie.
That’s me at work, taken a few minutes ago and yes Pat, that is your sweater I’m wearing.
As some of you know, I am/was involved with someone from over 2200 miles from me. Why is it “am/was”? It is “am/was” because I don’t know where we stand at the moment.
To make a long and easily uncomplicated story short, she has doubts that we will ever meet, therefore, our relationship has been lopsided. For as long as I can remember, I have never lived in any sort of fantasy, no matter how difficult a situation may be. Continue reading »
I was in front of my computer as usual, eating Herb & Garlic chips when one chip bounced out of my fingers and disappeared under the desk. I even made a sound with my mouth that resembled a manly man being poked up the ass by something to help his constipation.
After some searching, I found the Croc Minion all over it. He seemed pleased.
To finish off what we tried to do on Friday, which was supposed to be a 6pm Ditchmond 40k ride that was cut in half due to my slowness, we went on a 49.7km ride from Richmond to UBC and back. We also did a little Pacific Spirit.
Our ride started at Jason’s place near Steveston around 2:10pm. Went through Pacific Spirit, ended up at The Village, ate at Vera’s Burgers, went to the corner store to check out the cute Korean girl clerk, then rode back home. We had Om… Omelet Fried Rice Japanese Fusion Supreme for dinner and watched The Wrestler.
Welcome to Leemanism v3.0. All the entries in the old blog has been wiped. Though they were mostly backed up for my own records. Pat suggested a photo blog. I settled on a photo-esque sort of blog. Each entry will start off with an image of sorts, followed by my thoughts. I’ll keep my text-side thoughts to a minimal. If I have a rant, you’ll see the representation of it in the picture.
Anyway, if you want to hire a professional photographer, check out Patrick Leung.
Pat, Jason and yours truly @ the Vancouver Convention Centre and yes, that is a deliberate blurry picture. We rode from Pat’s place, across the Arthur Liang, up through Cypress and at the Lost Lagoon. Then we explored the new Convention Centre for a bit, then headed to Japadog’s. Afterwards, we rode back home in the chilly weather.
