It’s so late (or early)

Tonight (Monday night), I got a used 800mhz Dual Processor G4 from my coworker… It’s about 5:20am now and I’ve been formatting the drive and installing OS X and most of the programs I’m gonna use… I got the main programs I want and tomorrow I’ll be moving the second video card, extra hard drives, eyetv and other things from my old G3 to my new computer… hmmm, I think I won’t be getting too much sleep this week.

Whiter Teeth

After getting a new crown, I’ve been noticing my teeth more and I think my teeth are too yellow… eww!!!… (Damn smoking and Diet Coke!) I ask my dentist about the teeth whiteners and toothpaste they had on the market and he said that the whitening toothpastes have such a little concentration of the active ingredient, that they don’t work well. He suggest to try the . So I got a pack on Friday. I though it was kinda pricey at $24, but the box I got had 50% more free, so I though I would give it a try.

If you haven’t seen or heard of them. The Crest Whitestrips are basically these plastic strips with little dots of peroxide that you place on your teeth. You apply them for 30 minutes, twice daily for 2 weeks.

At first, it was kinda gross. I kept on salivating, so I would taste and smell the peroxide. After 3 days, it going okay… I think I’m use to it now and no longer salivate excessively. I think my teeth are getting whiter, but I don’t know if it’s all in my head… I should have taken pictures of my teeth before I started… Well, I’ll see in a couple weeks.

Sumo Wrestling…

Sumo WrestlersOne of our clients, Kikkoman (the soy sauce company), sponsored a fun activity for us today. Sushi and Sumo Wrestling… The sushi was pretty good… and the sumo wrestling was hilarious to watch.

As I was walking by the food to get a Diet Coke, the Kikkoman guy, pulled me aside and said, “Com’on, you want to wrestle don’t you.” Someone from upstairs wanted to wrestle and didn’t have a partner. I didn’t want to but all my coworkers were cheering me on… so what the hell… I went for it…

OMG, it was so hot in the Sumo suit… and it was so hard to move around… hehehe… by the end of two rounds, I was so tired out… I didn’t win, but it was fun… I dunno if anyone took my picture…

Broke my crown…

…and Jill came tumbling after (hehe, just kidding)

actually, I really did break my crown yesterday… it freaked me out, felt like I had sand in my mouth… yuck!… So the first thing I did when I got in the office was to call up my dentist and schedule an appointment. I was lucky to get one this afternoon.

So, yeay! I get to see my dentist. (I don’t want to sound like a high school girl)… but he is sooooo cute!!!! hehe… and I get to see his new office…

I’m dreading this evening…

I just got a message from my brother that my Uncle R in the Philippines just passed away. My brother asked if I can come home a little early so we can be with my mom when my aunt tells her. I didn’t know my uncle that well, but my mom will be devastated. She was just telling me and my friend Twins a few days ago that she petitioned him to come to the US about 20+ years ago, and they are just starting to process the papers, so I think there was a chance for Uncle to come next year or so. My mom was so looking forward to that day.

So I don’t know what to expect tonight when I get home. I just want to be there my mom. She gone through so much this year :-(
