KCAL
Justification was the topic of bible study to night. It was good to be there tonight. We watched the Lakers afterwards. Finally justification. Laker won!!!!! We beat the Queens. Kobe had a monsterous game and so did Shaq. It is about time!!!! The strange thing happened afterwards. I stuck around at Andy's for a while and the KCAL channel 11 news came on. It was terrible. The whole thing was about sex. I could not believe it. The whole news was about naked chicks and sex. LA must have no other news tonight. What a disgrace.

28 years under the sun.....
Never in my wildest dreams did I think that my life would be this wacked at age of 28. For anyone who reads my blog, you invited to to my birthday BBQ. My actual Birthday is on the 3rd of Feb. But I am celebrating on the 1st. All the info is in the bottom. My biggest complaint about getting older is that I don't see any difference in my life from when I was 24. I should feel different but I don't. I don't really care about material things or my status in life.... It is just that my perspective that has not changed. I am sad that I have no accompishments to my name yet. This has to change. Rememeber when you were a child and you thought you were the Most special person in the world? As childish as it might be, I want that feeling back.

Mother Land
Terek just came back from Korea and he said he really enjoyed it. He went all over the place in Korea. It really miss Korea. There is something about Korea. Hung out with Al and Terek till late and came home to sleep. Once again I could not go to sleep. All these thoughts about Korea came rushing back to me. My childhood, visits, friends, family, ladies........ I think the greatest Korean experience one can have is experiencing Korean Food!!!!!!!! Korean food id so good. All different kinds of Korean food. I love it. Also I love that the public transportation service is so great in Korea. Cheap taxis, cheap alcohol(soju), beautiful women, good food......did I mention beautiful women. In Gang Nam (south of Han River), the ladies dress to impress. Doesn't Seoul sound like heaven? Actually you can go seriously wrong in Korea. I mean sinning could be reached up to maximum in that city. But one thing that I love about Korea is that the women know their roles. That is so great. Unlike these lame American chicks, Korean women(from Korea) really knows how to make a man feel like a man. THE HEAD OF THE RELATIONSHIP!.
Korean-Americans
I am going to try not to bash Korean-Americans too much but here is my complaint. Whether you are a guy or a girl, I can't stand it when KA's forget about their Korean heritage. It gets even worse when KA's look down upon Korean culture. Especially clowns who have never been there and do not understand how things are in Korea. It is true that things can get awkward with some FOBs. But why do people diss them? Why are some KA's so ashamed of Koreans? Why must they let their pathetic insecurity get the best of them.
I am going to share a painful moment of mylife. It goes way back to when I was a child. When I first came to the US, I was 10 years old. Not knowing a single word in English except "yes" and "no", I enrolled at Stowers elementary school in Cerritos. I am sure you can just imagine how scared I was....... But the worst fear I had was other kids making fun of me.... IN THE BEGINING...... kids left me alone. But I wanted to make friends. So I searched for friends. Other Koreans. Here comes the tragedy. White kids, Mexican kids and black kids left me alone. But the kids that made fun of me for not speaking english was none other than my fellow Korean American kids. Imagine my disapointment. Eventually I learned to speak english and became the irresistable man of culture that I am today. But it was tough for me as a child......
This kind of madness goes on to this day. The same people are just older now. Shame on KA's that diss the fellow Koreans. Even worse was this chick that shall remain nameless. She came to America later than I. So I said something to her in Korean and she refused to speak Korean to me. She had this nasty attitude about it too. I should have given her the back of the hand. But the benevolent man that I am decided not to break my world famous kind streak.

Pretty girls for Jesus
One thing about evil is that it strikes everyone. In it's own way, evil is fair. Andy and I was discussing about all kinds of things at lunch. Andy and I are so different. He is definitely the optimist and I am the pesimist. One thing that we agreed upon is that evil strikes everyone. Whether you are a geek,a jock,a pretty boy or what ever, evil finds a way to soak into all people. My conclution is that pretty girls needs Jesus too. I will concentrate my focus on pretty girls to evangelize to them. I figure I will be more motivated then. Really try to understand what pretty girls go through. I know that this sounds really tough but I am up to the challenge. May be this is my calling.........

Al Pacino
I was at the premiere of the movie "The Recruit" last night. The movie sucked. It was me, Marcel, Camillo, and Camillo's fiance. The movie was so predictable and boring. The chick was pretty hot. The dude in the movie was ok. But Al Pacino really sucked in the movie. What happened to Al Pacino? He really did not put any effort into the character. He had this ten minute speech that sucked. I always loved Al Pacino. He is the Godfather for heaven's sake! The list of his great roles are a mile long. But pacino's lackluster performance in "The Recruit" was very disapointing. He really hasn't been in a good movie in a long time. How can he go from Michael Corleone to Tony Montana to Crap.......
Ex-Pros
Joe Chong, Andy Lee, and I had lunch at Mandy's yesterday. I am hooked to that place. It is not beacause the food is so good or that the place is so nice. I think it is beacause the price is so low. So yesterday at Mandy's, the waitess asked us "Do you like hockey?" Of course I said " Hockey is a white man's sport!". The waitress points out to this guy next to us and says he played for the LA Kings. I felt like a jackass. But he was really cool. He said "I am white!" And the guy next to him says "I played for the NE Patriots". So we sat next to to people who played profesional sports. The guy who played for the Kings was really a nice guy. He said his name was Nedomansky. So I looked him up on the net. His name is Vashi Nedomansky. His father Vaclav Nedomansky was a famous guy. But there was very little about Vashi. But it seemed like he was doing well. I think he was the nicest ex-pro athlete, I've ever met. Couple of days ago, I met a guy who played with the Dodgers for a short while. His name is Matt Luke. He went to my high school so shot the breeze with him for a bit. He too was a real nice guy. May be they are nice because they were not the super stars. They have a real perspective of life. I don't know. But I wonder what it would be like to be a profesional athlete. Life must be good for those guys.

Mind Rape
I think that amount of TV commercial we have in the US is an outrage. I did not realize it until I got a forward email from Dave Song. It was called superbowl commercial. That is when the reality hit me. It took me back to Super bowl Sunday and some one said "Whatever happened to Bud Bowl?" Bud Bowl was this series of bad CGI commercials where beer bottles would battle each other to see which Budweiser beer would win. Bud lite or regular Bud. (they both suck) It ran during the Super Bowls in the 80's. When I was thinking about Bud Bowl commercials, I came to a realization. I realized that we Ameicans were getting suckered by the advertisement companies. Everyone was so into TV commercials. The one with Yao Ming and the movie trailers (Matrix, Hulk). I too was victom of being "mind raped" and did not even know it. This is why soccer is not a popular sport with American TV stations. TV ads are a subject of way too many coversitions through out the day. Enough Commercials! The Irony is the I was a Advertising major.
State of the Union Address
Tax cut.... Not interested. Health care..... Even more unintersting. War.... Now that is a intersting subject. What justfies war? is it our own safety and preserving our way of life? I watched the state of the union address by GW. It made me sorta sad to think about this whole war subject. How many poor Iraqis have to die because of lunatics such as Saddam Husein? How many people in North Korea have to die of mal-nutrition because of clowns like Kim Jung-Il?
One of the funny things about the state of the union address id the people constantly standing up and down. Everytime Bush said something there go the Senators standing up and down clapping. Some look so unenthused..... It's kinda funny. I hope best results come out for people all over the world.
This is truly a Catch-22. I hate those weird situations where you are damned if you do and damned if you don't. That really sucks. War is one of those issues. Why is it that everytime we have a Repulican in the office we have a war? The American people put GW Bush as our president and I have confidence that his adminstration will do what is necessary to ensure our way of life. Knowing that Saddam Husein is a power mongral dictator, I feel that we need to take him out. But waht about the poor people who will die because of a crazy fool. I must put my trust in the Big G. That He will allow that which is His will.

Miracles
Main Entry: mir·a·cle
Pronunciation: 'mir-i-k&l
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Old French, from Late Latin miraculum, from Latin, a wonder, marvel, from mirari to wonder at
Date: 12th century
1 : an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs
2 : an extremely outstanding or unusual event, thing, or accomplishment
3 Christian Science : a divinely natural phenomenon experienced humanly as the fulfillment of spiritual law
I am not sure if miracle is a credible word. People always say things like miracle happens everyday. Some say there is no such thing as a miracle. I would say "I need a miracle this month to meet my quota". But since God is involved in everything, isn't everything a manifestation of divine intervention? So what justifies something as a miracle and others as a plain ordinary event?
Well whatever the definition of miracle is, I need an extraordinary manifestation of divine intervention soon.
Here is what I am going to ask God to get involved in my favor.
1. That we get paid soon
2. For my bath tub to be fixed by the time I get home.
3. To protect me from ugly people
4. No confrontations today
5. help me win the lotto on wednesday??????? Can I ask for such a thing? I guess it would take a MIRACLE
I wonder how many of these miracles, God will allow for me.

The Graduate
Definitely one of my favorite movies. I just love that movie. Once in a while you see a movie that really gets you..... If someone would ask me to describe my ideal woman, it would be Katherine Ross in The Graduate. I loved her in that movie. Not just because she was so beatiful in the movie(which helps), I really liked her character(Elaine Robinson) because she was so confident yet showed her vulnerability. I like that in a woman. I like a woman who can show her vulnerable side to a man. I also really liked Claire Forlani in "Meet Joe Black". The movie was ok, but her chracter was almost perfect.
List of some of my favorite women in movies. (movie I liked them in... not necessarily good movies)
1. Katherine Ross (The Graduate)
2. Emanuelle Beart (Manon of the Spring)
3. Sophie Marceau (Braveheart)
4. Cybil Shepard (Taxi Driver)
5. Clair Forlani (Meet Joe Black)
6. Audrey Hepburn (Breakfast at Tiffany's)
7. Julia Ormand (Sabrina)
8. Jane Fonda (Barbarella)
9. Grace Kelly (To Catch a Thief)
10. Faye Wong (Chunking Express)
This is definitely not a list women that I lust after. I left out all the Korean actresses because..... Well because I wanted to. That is a seperate list that I shall post later.

Back in Paradise........ Another short weekend.
Friday
Chris Yi left LA. I guess I should say that I will miss him. It has been a long time since I've seen him. I went to the party they had for him on Friday night. We had Korean buffet and then we went to Blue Note. Here is a list of some of the people who were at the farewell party. Paul Pyo, Albert hyung, Helen noona, James Jin, STD, Peter Synn, Sam To, Moon Ga Young, Melinda, and other happy faced niggas that I have not seen in a while. We all drank beers and soju. Saw Peter Synn. I guess my life is not as sad as his. More and more he drank, sadder and sadder was his story. His final statement was "I have not gotten laid in 2 1/2 years!!!!". Just as I started sympathizing with him and he say this awful thing. Some people were laughing and some were silent. I assed out this one clown. One paticular guy who was laughing which shall remain nameless, acted as if Peter was this pathetic guy. Knowing the clown that he is from the past, and knowing that he can't pull chix if his life depended on it, I said "What are you laughing about?". Everyone busted out with a laugher. Than I felt kinda bad. so I bought him a soju. Same old same old with my old crew. It was really good to see some and could have gone with out seeing others. All in all it was a good experience. Oh I almost forgot. Me, Paul, Melinda, and Ga Young, went to No Rae Bang afterwards and I rocked it(as usual). But a funny Phenomenon happened. It was like a re-occuring nightmare. I was singing "don't look back in anger" by Oasis and Melinda accidentally pushed stop and I got assed out. Right before I was about to get into it, the song fizzled out like the Raiders did last night. This is the second time this happened to me. the SAME SONG! Last time, the wacked Berkely girl did the same thing to me. The same part of the song. Just before the climax..... maybe I don't sound to good and this is their way of not hearing the song. I doubt it cause I rock.
Saturday
I finally saw Jongmin. Had lunch with him and Andy in Cerritos. It was good to see him but I had a ridiculous experience before the lunch. Couple of days ago my dad asked if he can borrow a CD. So I said sure. Before I tell the story there is something you should know. My father is probably the most difficult man to have as a father. Many people tell me that I am like him. I don't buy it. He is demanding, sensitive, tough, and very manly. Weird combination. How can people think that I remind them of him? He hates Christians. He says that he likes what the bible has to say and this that and the other but he hates the hypocritic Christians. To make the long story short he is a difficult man to live with. Back to the story. I was on my way to pick up Jongmin and a got a phone call from my pops. He said "Where is the CD?" I replied "its in my car and I will drop it off later cause I forgot". He demanded that I bring the CD back now. I told him how I was picking up may friend and he did not want to hear it. So I drove back home and gave him the CD. Meanwhile he stole my keys and would not give it to me. He said "you don't repect me. So I don't give you your keys" I explainded to him that I cannot be later than I already am. But it seemed he enjoyed that fact that I was panicking.
Three elements of why I was panicking.
1) Jongmin and Andy is waiting.
2) I am parked in red (I thought I was going to just drop off the CD)
3) My phone is in the car so I can't even call Jongmin and Andy to tell them I am going to be late.
After a while my anger was growing more and more. So I went ouside and smoked a cigarrette to calm my nerves. When I came back in he put the keys on the kitchen table and told me that I am a Michin-Nome. So grabbed the keys and left.
Isn't this a terrble story? Can you imagine what it is like having a dad like mine?
Anyways lunch was good and played b-ball afterwards with Hoon and Mel. Also found out Al got in a car accident.
SUPER BOWL SUNDAY
My prediction was true. Defence wins championships and Offense sells tickets. Raiders got their asses handed to them. What a diapointing Super Bowl. I don't care about the Raiders. I never have. But they really sucked yesterday. Watched the game at Walter's house. It was cool. I won in fantasy basketball again. Kurt Thomas and Elton Brand went off yesterday. They are studs. But overall Super Bowl sucked...... I enjoyed the sermon at church. It was good to hear Jongmin share his experience with us afterwards. It is good to hear about people who are mission minded. It is good to hear hear about people who represent everything that you are not. May be one day the big G will show me how he can use me.

He demanded that I bring the CD back now. I told him how I was picking up may friend and he did not want to hear it. So I drove back home and gave him the CD. Meanwhile he stole my keys and would not give it to me. He said "you don't repect me. So I don't give you your keys" I explainded to him that I cannot be later than I already am. But it seemed he enjoyed that fact that I was panicking.
Three elements of why I was panicking.
1) Jongmin and Andy is waiting.
2) I am parked in red (I thought I was going to just drop off the CD)
3) My phone is in the car so I can't even call Jongmin and Andy to tell them I am going to be late.
After a while my anger was growing more and more. So I went ouside and smoked a cigarrette to calm my nerves. When I came back in he put the keys on the kitchen table and told me that I am a Michin-Nome. So grabbed the keys and left.
Isn't this a terrble story? Can you imagine what it is like having a dad like mine?
Anyways lunch was good and played b-ball afterwards with Hoon and Mel. Also found out Al got in a car accident.
SUPER BOWL SUNDAY
My prediction was true. Defence wins championships and Offense sells tickets. Raiders got their asses handed to them. What a diapointing Super Bowl. I don't care about the Raiders. I never have. But they really sucked yesterday. Watched the game at Walter's house. It was cool. I won in fantasy basketball again. Kurt Thomas and Elton Brand went off yesterday. They are studs. But overall Super Bowl sucked...... I enjoyed the sermon at church. It was good to hear Jongmin share his experience with us afterwards. It is good to hear about people who are mission minded. It is good to hear hear about people who represent everything that you are not. May be one day the big G will show me how he can use me.
