Yes it’s the Beijing Olympics!

In 2001, China won the bidding for the Summer Olympics. As we all know the symbol of number eight means luck and fortune to Chinese. It was intense and very emotional. And indeed, favor landed onto their hands. It’s now their turn to impress the world what they’ve got. But it wasn’t that easy. There were Chinese people who were not in favor of it. There were some negative things happened before reaching to this point. One of which, was the major earthquake that shook China as well as the world.

The Opening of the China Olympics was modern, yet very friendly; depicting friendship and unity to the world. “One World, One Dream” is the slogan. There were series of performances as part of the opening of the Olympics; all of them were awe- inspiring and breathtaking. Even kids who performed were also precise in their movements. The spirit of the China Olympics was more concentrated on the youth of the next generation. It was indeed moving for a viewer like me to witness a changed China in front of my eyes. God Bless us all!

Your dollar bill contains traces of cocaine (16 one- millionths if a gram). Terrible! I saw this news on NBC 7/39 just today. It’s not a new thing anymore, a lot of people have known about this since 1996. I think, I am just one of those small fraction of people who doesn’t know about this yet. More money. More cocaine. What’s next?

My first time ever to see a Broadway Musical of ‘The Phantom of the Opera’ at The Civic Theater in San Diego. July 26, 2008. I was in awe. It was wonderful! Although I wasn’t able to understand some of the songs, it was okay, I still enjoyed it nonetheless. I also appreciate the fact that the public were there to listen and watch closely. There were no unnecessary noise that I can complain about. Most of all, the characters and their props were so real- like. The clothes were pretty and so were the spectators. All I can say was that last night was a pretty night!

I have always wanted to watch a musical but never got the chance until last night. It was memorable!

I left my heart in San Francisco, high on a hill it calls to me
To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.
The morning fog may chill the air, I don’t care.
My love waits there in San Francisco, above the blue and windy sea,
When I come home to you, San Francisco, your golden sun will shine for me.

He was always accommodating and warm but that was it. There was never a real conversation with him not until I graduated from college. Growing up, he is always been that old guy who likes reading books, has few things to say but the moment he opens his mouth everybody listens. Every time we visit my grand parents it’s my grandmother who is the first one to greet us, always loud yet loving. I’ve always known my lolo as an opposite of my lola in many ways yet they compliment each other. When I started looking for a job, I remember my lolo reaching out to me as his own way of sense of support. Until this very day he never ceases to amaze me. Now I realize he has become my friend. He loves to know everything about what I’ve been doing. He appreciates a simple text message. He is very thoughtful in many ways. He values relationships and is still very sports minded even at the age of 80.

God Bless you Lolo!
