| Just finished writing my HI108 paper and just thought I would put in an entry before I go to sleep. We beat G-2's ass in rugby today. We only scored one tri-down, but it would've been three if Munoz knew how to run towards the tri-zone rather then back, lateral, then forwards. We dominated though. My library books are 3 days overdue; I wonder what they'll do to me? Probably walk some hours.
The Taiwan Question
I'm starting to lean towards going, but I am still unsure. The trip is 18 days, 16 if you subtract the flight time, but I don't want to spend my summer leave away from the LBC. What do you guys think? Other than Tommy Nguyen, who thinks Taiwan is a smelly hell-hole, most everyone has told me to go. Currently, one U.S. dollar is worth 33.2210 Taiwan new dollars. I wonder if stuff is cheap though. Anyways, what would I do in Taiwan? Talk to Taiwanese people? Check out Taiwanese girls? See what kind of octane they got? Exactly. But it's free... | | |
| Check out this email I just got from MAJ Pultz, one of the Chinese instructors:
Cadets,
You have been tentatively chosen to participate in this summer's DFL AIAD to Taiwan!!! There are still many details to work out, and you need to understand that you are not approved yet!! However, I also believe in "leaning forward in the foxhole" and being proactive! I would like to meet with all of you this week and discuss the initial details, and give you plenty of time to plan. I would like to meet with all of you during Dean's hour on Friday 26 March 04 in the DFL conference room WH 5002. If you cannot attend, please let me know ahead of time! I also need you start working on getting your passports immediately! You can go to the local Post Office over by the Buffalo Soldier field and pick up the application. I will give you further guidance on Friday.
MAJ Christopher Pultz
Note: DFL stands for Department of Foreign Languages. I don't remember what AIAD stands for.
It's pretty sweet - an all expenses paided trip to Taiwan and I get to check out military stuff and other stuff related to Taiwan stuff. The thing is it takes up all of my summer leave. I dunno if I want to go; I don't want to give up all that driving and stuff just to go to Taiwan.
I just talked to Glenn and he says I should go. But then again, he also thinks 2 + 2 = 5. | | |

Note: I didn't want to use the word vicarious because I think it's overused. | | |
| I still can't remember what I was thinking about, but I'm not worried cuz I tend to think about the same things over and over again. I just watched fallen angels again. No, it's probably not the movie you're thinking about; this is a Chinese movie directed by Wong Kar-Wai, possibly my favorite director of all time. Brought up thoughts of death. I mean, if we die, what is left to show that we existed? All that really remains are memories; they might be attached to objects or pictures. Maybe pictures of the good times - hanging out, a silly face, striking a pose. One day my folks will die. All that'll be left are memories. A time when I was little and my grandma cut oranges for me to eat. My mom coming back from work late at night and pulling my blanket back over me, which I so often kicked off in my sleep. My dad teaching me how to drive stick in his old celica. Just snapshots. The attitudes we have towards people are simply the manifestations of a collection of moments and memories that combine to generate emotions. If you collected all the bad moments you've had with someone and remembered only that, wouldn't your attitude towards them be different? Just some food for thought. Ich brauche essen. | | |
| I don't do jack shit here - in terms of academics, that is. It's something that has been pretty obvious to me for a while but hadn't surfaced as a complete thought until now. And... I just lost my train of thought. Me and Al-Sabah were looking for a song and just found it: I don't want to know by Mario Winans. A really good song. Anyways... I don't remember what I was thinking about but I just found a funny page on learning Japanese.

It's a bit long but I thought it was pretty funny. I'll post again when I remember what I was thinking about. | | |
