president's day

today was a very productive day indeed. wokeup around 10am and drove into seattle with my coworker steve. i parked in a lot on 1st street by the water front and it costed $20! it wasn't too bad i guess since we didn't really have to go around and look for parking. we later found out that my other coworkers that came down from vancouver from their weekend trip parked in a free spot right down by pike's place market. oh well. =)

steve and i had a chance to stop over at the first starbucks and we grabbed a couple drinks since it was a chilly day out. we also posed for pictures in front of the store. its funny how steve was shy at first to take a picture fearing that we'd look like tourists. hehe. these days i don't give a damn what people think of me. i just do what feels right. that's been my motif all my life, but i sometimes don't always live by it. now a days i REALLY don't care as those around me can attest to. i guess its a good thing if i'm to meet someone new in my life since i would really want her to know what i intend upfront. no playing games anymore.

oh... the best part of the day... we got a chance to go visit bruce lee's grave! brandon lee was also burried right next to his dad of course. it was weird posing for pictures by their grave, but when i think about it... they would like the fact that we paid homage to their grave site. i think that's the kind of people they were since the both of them were in the movie spotlight. with fame comes lots of recognition and of course we also have respect for the work that bruce has done in terms of his martial arts and embracing new ideas based on the traditional foundation. sometimes it takes a brave person to challenge the status quo and that's the tradition in america.

well. that's about it for now since i'm dead tired. i'll post a couple pictures of today, but you can checkout the rest in my gallery as usual.
