“Everything the light touches is our kingdom.”
This is another one of those stupid end-of-an-era moments that I really hate. My apartment is cleaned out and I’ve moved out of the hobbit-hole apartment in Berkeley, my fifth place in five years. I was feeling pretty depressed yesterday about moving out of my favorite city and, more importantly, moving back in with my mother for a month. Then came a series of unfortunate unbelievable events that somebody up there tied together into a nice little package for me. I don’t think I’ve ever been more in love with Berkeley than I was yesterday.

Murphy's Law Strikes Again
Considering that I pay $80 per month for a gated carport in our apartment building, you'd expect some kind of security. I found my car, which was parked in my carport, ransacked.
This one was my fault completely for trusting the people in my apartment building and being too lazy to lock my car doors. Good thing I didn't leave anything really sentimental in there, like my iPod or laptop. But I lost my GPS, GPS charger, cell phone charger, auxiliary cable, and cheap-o sunglasses case from Daiso. Net loss of about $300. No broken windows or broken locks. So I'm thankful for that.
I guess this is what I get for cursing Sasha Vujacic during last night's game. The Machine clearly has friends in powerful places.
Thank heavens I'm moving home after this weekend.

Remember the Apple Newton? Didn’t think so.
Sorry to get all sentimental on you guys. This one’s going in a different direction (think Friends 5th season).

I’m 23 now.
Many of you withstood me bitching and whining all day long about taking yet another step toward the inevitable. I was trying to be facetious about the whole aging thing, but the more I joked about it, the more aware I became of the passage of time. It did not help that my birthday coincided with my last day at the greatest job I’ve ever held.
23. So what? I’m still in the early 20s. I’m still young and my liver is still invincible. My whole life this year will be a tribute to Michael Jordan (HT: Calvin). Sounds pretty good, actually.
