RECESSION
We all probably know all the bad things going on in the world; so I'll quickly talk about the good things I have noticed with the recession.
The major thing I have experienced is the shopping experience. Customer service agents are 200% nicer than last year.
I went to Toys R US and was asked if I needed help 5 times in about 10 minutes.
Hopefully the level of customer service keeps up when our economy recovers.

Until next time.

Another Year
ANOTHER YEAR
Yes. Today, I am another year older.
Another year wiser? probably not. Another year richer? definitely no.
I might not be financially well off, but I am fortunate in so many other ways. I am the healthiest and fittest I have ever been. I am the happiest I have ever been. Finding a happy medium between spending time with others and my time alone.
What am I going to accomplish the next year? Who knows. I enjoy staying free and unpredictable.
Maybe a job in South America. Maybe going back to uni. Maybe selling everything I own and going around the world.
ima wo ikiru.

Another Race.
ANOTHER RACE
This past Sunday, I participated in the 3rd Annual Hibiscus 1/2 Marathon which all the funds go to Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
I haven't been training in running long distances and I hadn't exercised since the Honolulu Triathlon so my expectations were to take it east and run 10 minute miles.
I was very happy to finish. It was extremely hot.
I finished with a time of 2:06. I'm very happy with my time. Granted the winner came in at 1:10... lol
Off to the next race!

Apple Early Adopter - SUCKS!
EARLY ADOPTER
I love Apple products. I love buying their products the 1st day it comes out.
Unfortunately, this has a major setback. Since AT&T only allows an upgrade every 18 months, I will have to wait until December to get a full price upgrade.
Oh well.
