My Thanksgiving in New York with Family

Long post is long. Below details what I did for Thanksgiving with family. I'm placing the video somewhere in the middle.

I was in New York from Thursday to Saturday afternoon. We stayed at Affinia Manhattan near Madison Square Garden. We purposely arrived at around 12 noon so we would miss the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade on 34th street. We also ran into the Heintz Ketchup van giving away free fries and ketchup in their new packaging (patent still pending). After getting settled in the hotel, we met with my aunt and went to Chinatown to eat at Hop Kee Restaurant. We ordered lots of food. We finished most of it. I was full full. Afterwards, we went shopping for a bit, bought food and then went to Broadway street to watch Promises, Promises.

To Where You Are

You gave me strength to speak when I was weak.

For that, I thank you.

Rest in peace, uncle.

Ode to Beauty

That's all it took, when I looked

Ensnaring me, your big bright eyes

From then on, I was hooked

Setting me free, my worldly ties

Lucky is a person to have you

Bestow them, your elegant smile

May they always feel what I felt

Taking me right out of the blue

Keeps me going for a day, a mile

Graced by your smile, I melt

Sometimes...

Sometimes...

You have to put a period on something that has to end...

And not just settle on a comma and pretend.

Why? Because the time will come...

You'll realize it's better to see a complete sentence...

Rather than a hanging phrase sticking out like a sore thumb...

Which doesn't make any sense...

... At all.

Sometimes...

You have to let go of the past...

Like what a song said, "some good things never last."

If you're not the person you want to be...

Be that person. Change for the better.

Be that person that you want to see...

What you want to see when you look in the mirror...

... Things will be clearer.

I'm done.

Fall Leaves in the Night

I decided to bring my camera around when I went grocery shopping on Thursday last week. I couldn't find anything to take a picture at. When I got home, the best view I could find was in the driveway.

I'm done.

Diary of a Returning Gamer #4

This is the first time in a long, long time where I'm juggling multiple games at the same time. From NIER, to Brutal Legend, to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 (which I restarted playing so I can gather all military intelligence from the get-go), to Heavy Rain, to Silent Hill: Homecoming, this point and click mystery game called Letters From Nowhere (for the PC), and Fallout 3. This doesn't even include Facebook and puzzle games I play from time to time and online flash games from various sites like Newgrounds and Miniclip.

There are still a bunch of games I have set my sights on: Final Fantasy XIII, God of War 3, and Fallout: New Vegas to name a few. We'll see how much I can obliterate of the games I currently have until I can sink my teeth on to the new ones.

I'm done.

My Power Ranger Costume

Since I didn't get any pictures of me during the Halloween Party on Saturday night, I dressed up and handed out candy to kids on Sunday afternoonight.

My mom took these pictures. I didn't do any grandiose poses. It's also cold, so I wore flips whenever I stepped outside.

I'm done.
