Collect Air Miles?

2008-03-04T12:02:36Z

Safeway is giving away 100 free air miles (again) for signing up for its online flyer. (I'm already signed up, you don't get stuff often) Just go to www.airmiles.ca/emaildirect and sign up for the letter and get 100 free air miles. (For those who haven't figured it out like I have, that's probably about $20 on your average flight, so it's a pretty good deal for the 5 minutes it takes)

Vancouver tournament

2008-01-13T19:33:05Z

So, Gibbo and some other friends are like "Are you coming to Vancouver tommorow?" and I'm like "Huh?" and they're like "ITG tournament" and I'm like "I really shouldn't".

So, I ended up going, and, though I'll say I got pretty lucky, I got 2nd. (Kaku got 1st and Way got 3rd, and I think Tony was 4th?) We all went out to supper at Uncle Willy's afterwards, which I must note, has an extensive selection of vegetarian alternatives. (You can tell just by the name) I made a bunch of bad puns, and Michele even assisted me in my terrible puns at one point. (Normally people don't encourage me like that.)

So, maybe sometime in the new year I'll organize a Victoria tournament, could be fun, for sure.

I was thinking recently of people who don't like to take responsibility for their actions (obvious from my last entry) and I was thinking about what's at the root of that. I think some people are afraid to have power, perhaps for lack of trust of themselves, or for fear that it will corrupt them, so, they give up or refuse to acknowledge the various ways in which they have power over what happens in the world, so they feel less responsibility for their actions. It seems complex at the very least, I'm sure there's more reason behind it than that.

But then, I was thinking of how so many people have the worst spending habits in the world, and somehow my brain made a correlation. Money is powerful, and so, maybe the way people act with money, and how so many people manage to somehow spend just as much as they make and barely get by all the time, is because people are afraid to become greedy, in other words, corrupted by the power of money. But yet...at the same time, this just leaves people who are already greedy to control the money that exists, and, often make probably much worse decisions about what should be done with it than the average person would if everyone took responsibility.

Maybe, then again I'm judging too much on limited circumstances, and specific types of people, but perhaps, nonetheless, this is an insight into how some people think...

Blame society

(for your inability to accept responsibility)

Crono says:

Further proof that I am Korea:

Jordan (my brother's name) spelled on a cell phone (in the approximation spelling mode) first results in "Korean".

Brian (my dad's name) spelled on a cell phone similarily results in "Asian" as the first choice.

Marathoned Kannon with my brother and friend Tom. Had to fight to keep my brother awake, all in all it was pretty good. (albeit confusing/a touch depressing at times)

Take a moment to turn your keyboard upside down and lightly tap it on the desk.

[Pause]

Go ahead, do it.

100 free air miles

2007-12-03T22:04:54Z

Just sign up your junk e-mail account for Safeway's newsletter. (or even your real one for that matter, you can always just filter safeway stuff as spam if you don't want to read it) Go here: www.safeway.ca/emaildirect

You apparently need a Safeway card # as well.

100 air miles = about $20 if you're using them towards your average flight.

If you got Hobo Biting Disease, what do you think it would it do?

The best super-power ever.

2007-11-29T11:15:23Z

The power of denial. ;)

It just occured to me

I was thinking about how the prevailing society doesn't necessarily have to be the best for its citizens, it just has to be the best at beating other socities. I wonder how many peaceful and happier civilizations were lost to the ones that were better at killing?

I just slept like....6 hours or something like that and it felt like 10 or 12...it's really really really really weird. I normally wake up really tired and I'm completely awake right now. Strangest feeling ever. And...I was having a dream about something and I woke up thinking about Code Geass for some odd reason. So strange...! Trying to figure out what woke me up so much.

Oh...and Jed fell down the stairs the other day. That was quite the way to wake up.

Yesterday we wanted your everything, but today, happy birthday to Dj Nubureo will do.

It's official!

I'm going to Newfoundland this January. Anyone got any contacts out there? I know at one point in time there was a decent DDR community but I haven't talked to any of those guys for a looong time. I'm going to be there a day early because of how air miles ended up booking me :( so I would like to find someone to hang out with if possible. Seems like a good idea, after going out that far and all.

I'm also going to have to pull the winter jacket out of retirement.

I think marketing has started to use "jealous of" and "admire" interchangeably. That's kind of disturbing.

On another note...

2007-11-16T02:18:54Z

I actually got about 500 Air Miles on my last trip, if my calculations were correct. Picked up some more stuff from the coupon book I had, and another special I had originally missed out on that was for taco shells and salsa. I think I spent about $140 altogether.
