My older brother, Thomas, will be getting married in the Vietnamese tradition on Saturday and the American tradition on Sunday. Its like two weddings at once :). Im happy for my brother and that he is doing great with his life. My future sister-in-law is a good women and I give my respect for her to marry my older brother. I already feel that she is a part of my family. The Vietnamese ceremony will be held in my house, so Aras, be careful when you drive on Connemara Dr. Warning: There will be a lot of cars. I will be the groomsman on Sunday ceremony but its gonna be in Briar Creek, so Im excited to be in the wedding. I dont know if i can bring a date or not, so im sorry ladies :( So i will leave on Fri, and wont leave till early morning on Mon (my parents want me to stay in cary on sunday for the whole wedding). I highly doubt I be free on any day this weekend.
Things seems to be better for now, but I dont know if anything bad will happen to me. I dont know what is goin on with my life, but sometimes I feel when good things happen to me, bad things tend to crawl back and hit me worse than before. I think its Murphy's Law that hits me really bad, but I dont know.

I got 10 right!
Excellent, I have the makings of a proper propeller head. (LOL)
A German inventor has come up with the technology that will power your car on fuel derived from dead cats.
Christian Koch, 55, has angered animal rights people with his alternative fuel which is made from a secret recipe of garbage, mashed-up moggies, and other ingredients.
He said that his normal diesel-powered car has clocked 170,000 kilometres (106,000 miles) on pussy power without any major catastrophe.
His company "Alphakat GmbH", says his patented "KDV 500" machine can produce "bio-diesel" fuel at about 23 euro cents (30 cents) a litre, which is about one-fifth the price at petrol stations now.
It takes 20 dead cats added to the mix to produce enough fuel to fill up a 50-litre (11 gallon) tank. We're just one step closer to Mr. Fusion, the same technology used in the movie "Back to the Future".
My mom rush in and woke me and told me that grandma died. I was heartbroken and i ran as fast as I could to see her. Once i was there, she was gone. It was at that moment that struck me hard and it was the sadest moment. But the most worse moment is that my younger brother, Teddy, was not there before she past away. Teddy was still in school and taking a final for his class. He arrived to grandma's place the next day. My mom brokedown and cried nonstop for her. I then pray to her and lit some cradles to show her respect. It was a hard moment to see her. I left the room to let my uncles and aunts pray to her. My mom then told me to go to sleep. I went back to bed and woke up the next morning. It was around 9:00am and my mom and dad, my older bro, and me gather together to pray and say our goodbyes before she was taken away to the funeral home. It was hard to see her because she stuffed into a bag and strecher as they put her in the vehicle. Later in the time, my whole family gathered at the funeral home to see her as the prepartions were starting. I saw her as she was laying down in the casket. I was then later notified that i was the ballbearer for the funeral service. It was an honor to take her body to the hearst and to the grave. My three cousins, my two brothers, and I were the ballbearers for the funeral service. The service was held on Sat, July 9. it was day where i would never dream of. I saw her one more time before the casket closed. It was tough and i, yet again, brokedown and cried for a long period of time. I then was in position to hold the casket to the hearst and it was heavy. We had a police escort to the graveyard which was the most honorable gesture for my family to have on this sad day. When arriving to the grave site, we then pull the casket out and place it down on a stand. Before we sent her into the grave, Buddist monks were there to give the memorable service. I was glad about that and we then prayed more for her. We then sent her into her grave and i let go of her one last time....
I am still in Indiana praying to her and trying to see her as much i can before i come back to NC. I will be back on Weds, July 13. I be back then and I will try to be stronger as time progress.

Grandmother
All went well for the day. I wasn't hungry for dinner, so i skip it. I then got a call from my best friend, Charlie, and he invited me to go watch the movie, "War of the Worlds". Charlie picked me up and we headed to the theaters. Charlie, Jen, John, Curtis and his bro, and I were there. We all gathered together first and then headed inside. It was a great movie. I give it 3 out 5 stars. It had great graphics and good storyline. the only problem i had was I just didn't like the ending. Tom Cruise was perfect for this movie and he was fantasic.
As the movie ended, my friends and I headed outside and we all stop and we talk b4 we all left. John ,Curtis, and Curtis's bro was sitting down and Jen, Charlie and were standing. It was fairly alright, we all talked about the movie and then suddenly, when I mentioned about heading to Indiana the week after next, i just felt really sad and depressed inside my mind. I was about to breakdown. I moved over to the side and i became depressed. No one saw me at first for a few minutes, and then Charlie ask if i was alright. I told him no. It was a pain inside my mind. I sat down and just cover my face. I then told my friends there about what going on. It was hard to say it. I said the news about my grandmother and the condition that she is in. I just broke down. I couldn't hold it together. Later my friends gave me some support and telling me how sorry they were. I thank them for doing that and i appreicated alot. i brokedown, and i felt really bad. I wish she had more time, but she doesn't. I felt a lil better after i broke down for 10 mins. then i see John layin down on the ground. He looked bad and i wanted to see whats happening to him. Then charlie told me about his problem. he was suffering from his migrane. it's a bad one and it was hurting him bad. The lights from the light poles were hurting him.We pulled him up and i handed my sunglasses to him to protect his eyes. He took him into Charlie's car and drove him back to his place. We then helped him up to his place and said our goodbyes to him. After that, Charlie was driving me back home and we both talked about our bad times. I am glad that he helped me be better, if it was for him, i wouldn't be what i am today. Thank you Charlie. He took me back and i said my goodbyes to him.
I be leaving to Indiana two weeks from now. I will see one more time, and then i don't know whats going to happen next. I thank those who comfort me and helped me tonight...it was hard to say it, but thank you. I need to get some sleep soon. I will be better tomorrow.

25 Facts about Women
1) Women love to shop. It is the one area of the world where they feel like they're actually in control.
2) Women especially love a bargain. The question of "need" is irrelevant, so don't bother pointing it out. Anything on sale is fair game.
3) Women "never" have anything to wear. Don't question the racks of clothes in the closet; you "just don't understand".
4) Women need to cry. And they won't do it alone unless they know you can hear them.
5) Women will always ask questions that have no right answer, in an effort to trap you into feeling guilty.
6) Women love to talk. Silence intimidates them and they feel a need to fill it, even if they have nothing to say.
7) Women need to feel like there are people worse off than they are. That's why soap operas and Oprah Winfrey-type shows are so successful.
8) Women don't need sex as often as men do. This is because sex is more physical for men and more emotional for women. Just knowing that the man wants to have sex with them fulfills the emotional need.
9) Women hate bugs. Even the strong-willed ones need a man around when there's a spider or a wasp involved.
10) Women can't keep secrets. They eat away at them from the inside. And they don't view it as being untrustworthy, providing they only tell two or three people.
11) Women always go to public restrooms in groups. It gives them a chance to gossip.
12) Women can't refuse to answer a ringing phone, no matter what she's doing. It might be the lottery calling.
13) Women never understand why men love toys. Men understand that they wouldn't need toys if women had an "on/off" switch.
14) Women think all beer is the same.
15) Women keep three different shampoos and two different conditioners in the shower. After a woman showers, the bathroom will smell like a tropical rain forest.
16) Women don't understand the appeal of sports. Men seek entertainment that allows them to escape reality. Women seek entertainment that reminds them of how horrible things could be.
17) If a man goes on a seven-day trip, he'll pack five days worth of clothes and will wear some things twice; if a woman goes on a seven-day trip she'll pack 21 outfits because she doesn't know what she'll feel like wearing each day.
18) Women brush their hair before bed.
19) Watch a woman eat an ice cream cone and you'll have a pretty good idea about how she'll be in bed.
20) Women are paid less than men, except for one field: Modeling.
21) Women are never wrong. Apologizing is the man's responsibility, "It's there in the Bible". Hmmm, who was it that gave Adam the apple?
22) Women do not know anything about cars. "Oil-stick, oil doesn't stick?"
23) Women have better restrooms. They get the nice chairs and red carpet. Men just get a large bowl to share.
24) The average number of items in a typical woman's bathroom is 437. A man would not be able to identify most of these items.
25) Women love cats. Men say they love cats, but when women aren't looking, men kick cats.
"Excuse me?"
"What kind of "ese" are you?"
"Excuse me, I don't understand what you meant."
"Stupid! Are you Vietnamese, Chinese or Japanese?"
"Oh! I am a Vietnamese."
After 2 hours. Vietnamese asked American: "What kind of "kee" are you?
"What? What do you mean by key?"
"Are you monkey, donkey or Yankee."

fill a job opening.
After sorting through a stack of resumes he found four people who
were equally qualified.
He decided to call the four in and ask them only one question
Their answer would determine which of them would get the job.
The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table
the interviewer asked:
"What is the fastest thing you know of?"
Acknowledging the first man on his right, the man replied, "A
THOUGHT.It just pops into your head. There's no warning that it's on the
way; it's just there. A thought is the fastest thing I know of."
"That's very good!" replied the interviewer. "And now you sir?" he
asked the second man.
"Hmm....let me see. A blink!
It comes and goes and you don't know that it ever happened. A
BLINK is the fastest thing I know of."
"Excellent!" said the interviewer. "The blink of an eye ... that's
a very popular cliche for speed."
He then turned to the third man who was contemplating his reply.
"Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house and on the
wall there's a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across
the pasture the light in the barn comes on in less than an instant.
TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of."
The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer and
thought he had found his man. "It's hard to beat the speed of light" he said.
Turning to the fourth and final man, the interviewer posed the
same question.
It's obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHEA."
"WHAT!?" said the interviewer, stunned by the response.
"Oh I can explain." said the fourth man.
"You see the other day I wasn't feeling so good and I ran for the
bathroom.
But, before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had
already shit my pants!"
