documentation

hello peeps! i've been a good boy and doing some documentation today. that consisted mainly of drawing diagrams of my blocks, and while it seems like an easy task, it is time consuming. i have a big presentation on friday, and i'm sort of nervous; i'm not very good about talking in front of a crowd.

we went to milpitas for lunch today. i think the place was called "won kee." they have cheap lunch specials ($5.99 or $6.50), and the food was pretty good. and on top of that, they give you a free cup of either honey tea or milk tea. not bad for $8 a person.

i am getting massage today. my neck has been sore (as usual), and it's time for a nice rubdown. btw, are you supposed to tip the masseuse? and how much do you tip?

when i was last in the bathroom taking a leak, there was a dude in the stall pissing as well. what was interesting about it was that his urine hit the water like a machine gun. it would hit, and then there would be a split second of silence, then it would hit again. i wonder how/why he was doing that. he must have been doing kegel exercises or something.

i think it's a good thing that i can stop thinking about work the moment i leave the office. when i started my first job, i couldn't do that; i would think about work when i slept, when i took a shower, when i was driving, etc. it was madness. i was always stressed out and stuff. these days, i compartmentalize my job pretty well, and it's a good thing.

i had dinner with adam and my coworker W last night at los charros. we were talking about careers and what not, and i was impressed with them because they have ideas about what they want to do. me, i am stuck here doing chip design, and i definitely don't want to do this for the rest of my life. the problem is, i don't know what else i want to do. i don't have any passions, nothing that makes me go, "yeah, i'd be interesting in doing that for a career." hm. all i can say, though, is that my job is currently making me very unhappy.

so i got my herbal supplements yesterday. i looked at the ingredients of one of the bottles (i got two bottles of stuff), and the pills contain shiitake mushrooms. weird, huh? what good are mushrooms going to do for my brain?

ok, i've got ten minutes until i get to leave for my massage. have a good one, folks.
