Moving back to the city It is really exciting the thought of moving back into the city... however there is one thing that I will be missing... I don't know if mintrix.net will be able to stay up or not. for the last 3.5 years, the ZIPP system and the local ISP has allowed me to run my own web/ftp server without any hassle... now I am moving to the big city... I don't think comcast will let me do that :(.. I will at most have a 8mb down and 768k up ... wow... a downgrade on my internet access. so the question is this ... what do I do with my services? I have a webserver, a ftp server, a mail server and VPN services back to my home network... what will become of all that??? will I ever be able to do what I am doing now in the big city? |

... finally found a place After a whole weekend of running around in Seattle looking for a place to live .. I finally decided on one. It was pretty hard choice... I went from Magnolia to Wallingford, to Ballard, to Green Lake to Green wood to Shoreline to Mount Lake Terrace to Edmonds to Lynnwood. My price started to 800 and it ended up alot more then I expected, but the place is pretty nice. I finally ended up in Lynnwood and I am going to live about 2.5 miles from work. Yeah... close to work, is good. I really wanted to live in Wallingford or Green Lake but... I just can not find a place with in my price range and a place that I really like. So... I will live in this new place for a while and see where I want to go from there. As I stated before, the place is pretty interesting... it has a small indoor lap pool and they also have a full size basketball court. Lots of little features like that. Pretty neat. I just hope it will be as good as promised. We will see... so come and visit me in Seattle. |

At a Crossroad I have just made a major decision that will affect the next couple of years in my life. It was a hard choice to make between three really good companies. 1) Grant County PUD, Ephrata 2) M/A-Com - Tyco Electronics, Denver 3) Sparling Consulting, Seattle After careful consideration, I've decided to move to Seattle and work with Sparling Consulting. Giving up Grant County PUD is really hard, but I believe the move to Sparling will we good for my career in the long run. Well... now I will have to finalize my start date and start closing out some of my project here with the PUD. It's going to be an interesting summer. |

almost 2 Years Later... almost 2 years later... It has been two years... I thought I moved on... I am getting better... but hearing that/those news still hurts me... It shouldn't but it does. I am a much more mature guy now... I am ... but I am still very emotional sometimes... I need to be less emotional. I talked to a guy on the plane the other day... he says... to succeed in life you have to have passion for something but also be able to have emotional detachment. Meaning ... you have to be able to detach emotions from things. I keep on thinking about things that people tell me ... you have to be able to "pick it up and put it down". I think my problem is that I can pick it up, but I just can't put it down. so now I just don't pick it up... when opportunities comes along.. if you don't take it, you miss it. And fear of failure is one of the greatest barriers to success and to happiness. Happiness... what is happiness? I am happy... but right now... I am not sad... but I just somewhere in the middle. so where am I? I am in Ephrata, WA... in the center of the Washington desert. So, why did I end up here? professionally, it was a good move... and it is still a good move professionally... and also it is in washington... there is a direct flight from seattle to Taiwan, it don't matter now. You know... I need to stop this... I complain tooo much on my website... but eventually it is just another page in my book of life. We all learn from it and move on right? I am a good person... I try to be a good person... I have beliefs and standards and I believe I know my role as a person. So.. I guess just been true to myself... and look forward everything will be good. {sigh}.... 2 years ...... 2 years... |

Allergies... My allergies been pretty bad lately... I took some Claritin-D yesterday and BAM... the allergies were a bit better... but I was feeling I like I was floating around. It really messed me up. I don't know why? I think it is the side effects, but all I know is that allergies don't help when everything is being so busy. I have many things going on at the same time. sometimes I feel that I am not happy unless I am busy. |
