oh yea? he does kinda look like you

He looks like a Steven Colbert'd version of me. And is significantly smaller in stature. Still a good du though.

Tonight I just sort of blew up before dinner. I have a ton of money to pay in car repairs and my mom keeps avoiding the subject, she doesn't want me to access a certain bank account and bonds and blah blah... it was just driving me nuts. At the same time my sister starts mocking me and it just combines to push me too far.

Sounds sort of stupid and I guess it is. I usually have really good self control but I basically just lost it and went off on my sister telling her how much of a fuck up she is, the whole works. She acts like it meant nothing but It must have hurt. I hate myself when stuff like this happens. The saddest part is that I strongly believe everything I said, she is totally wasting her life right now and I hate her for it.

Yo homie. You should apologise to your sister. Family is always first man (well god is, if you believe in that sort of thing). Your "best" friends, collegues, wife, girlfriend, whatever all have the potential to turn your back on you and fuck you over. But blood won't. You should apologise.

got a call back, going in tomorrow morning instead.... ARAHAGAHJGA! LETS DO DIS!!!

Good luck with the job interview. I just got a reply back from a VC fund that I interviewed with last week. They are trying to create a position and need more time. I think this is great news and I'm hopeful I can get an offer.

Also, I've been really careful with my money recently since I've been unemployed and went to the ATM yesterday to find I had a shit load of money in my account. At first I thought it was an error and I called my bank. Turns out my former employeer actually paid out my year end bonus despite going bankrupt. A feeling of relief and happiness went over me today.

:D

good luck and hope you guys are back to work soon, Tyro and rajio.

i got a stream of random gigs comin my way but still nothing I feel like I can make a cohesive, long-term string out of. And still debating moving back Stateside, although I hear it's equally quiet out there. Basically feels like I'm walkin a fuckin tightrope all the time, but shit I suppose this for now is better than bein trapped auditing documents 9-3 AM.

Stay in Asia my friend. The current financial crisis is going take several years to unwind in the US. There is still growth and opportunities in Asia.

Tried for a bit of a hitler youth look but I just couldn't get the fade looking right. Had my hair skinhead for about 10 years but looking at it after having hair for 3 months, I don't think it suits me any more.

Hmm...I'm hearing the same story from several friends who are either currently in or going back to the US soon and it's that general uncertainty that worries me - the current times are neither here nor there.

On the one hand - Southeast Asia, particularly the Greater China Region (mainly w/ the mainland China as its hub) is going to explode in the future once the other side's hourglass runs out, but at present things are at a halt, you hear of long-established barons of wealth getting completely tapped out, even the ones you would've least expected. Theoretically everything is in place for the revolution to happen, but a lack of forward-thinking enterprise centered mentality, packing the creative dynamism that allowed the US to surge all out in the latter phase of the 20th century, coupled with a sociopolitical infrastructure to keep things from going out of hand isn't there. I wonder how long it's gonna take...and the youth are disappointingly out of touch and lacking the motivation to carry the torch. Sad thing is, I have acquaintances from various spectra of society, and even if bank balances and areas of residence are different, this is one thing that is a recurrent thread throughout.

There are people with vision and guts in China, tons of them. The problem is identifying people you can communicate and then eventually build with to push things forward. Sadly, despite the collectivist nature of our culture, it is still (contradictorily) a very incestuous yet divisive hierarchy that dominates the business and political arenas. If you are young, have drive and smart enough to assert yourself beyond simply what you are just told, either you have to be in a place where there is a generation of elders to back you up and get you started, or you are going to get outcast everywhere because you are perceived as a threat to the status quo, however complacent it may already be. People like hanging on to their rice bowls.
