Random thoughts...

I'm just happy tonight. Gotta get up early for training tomorrow morning... but I'm just wired... hmmm... was it because of all the iced tea and coffee I drank or the chocolate souffle? Oh who cares. Food = Happiness. My tummy and I are both happy tonight.

I am in love... in love with life. My aunt's in town so I spent the night with my grandma, my mom, and my aunt. We had a nice dinner and enjoyed a wonderful show under the stars and a full moon. It was a beautiful night out in Laguna Beach. I looked over at my family, and overwelmed with this feeling. I'm sooooo lucky. And life is good. It makes me so happy to see my family and friends happy. I love to put smiles on people's faces. Makes me happy. They smile... I smile... they smile... I smile... they... Stop it! Now we all just look dorky!

Have you ever taken a wrong turn and come to something completely unexpected but changed your life for good, and for better? I like to take wrong turns on purpose sometimes, just to explore. Just to see what I'll run into today. Just to find a new way home. You never know... it might just turn out to be the wrong turn that you need. The one that will change your life. Then why do we still call them wrong turns? Perhaps the wrong turns are really the right turns we should've been taking all along. And maybe the best plan is having no plans at all.

I know. I'm random and I ramble sometimes. Atypical behavior of a typical engineer. The crazy planner without a plan. I don't always make sense, although I make perfect sense to me... Predictable but unpredictable. Serious but extremely mischievous. I have great sense of direction, but I like to get lost sometimes. You might get lost if you get into my head. No signs in there. I'm always lost in there.

Btw, my traveling bug is acting up again. It's been way too long. I need to get out of this country. Somehow, hotdogs taste better on the street corner in London... and crepes on Paris streets makes the best breakfast. If you're train hopping, I highly recommend the bratwurst in Munich station. I miss pointing at mystery food in a foreign country, and having a german lady tried to sign language to me "Ummm.. you're not supposed to eat that part." Hahaha. Yes, that did happen. They must be thinking, dumb Japanese tourist! And I was thinking... haha... I'm Chinese... hold up my camera and let's blame it on the Japs.

I know... I'm very random tonight. Did you not read the subject title...? I did warn you.
