| Work, Harry Potter, and Snow! So far I have had two days of database training and find it *very interesting*. Why do I find it interesting? Firstly, it's hands-on training. This training makes me use my mouse and listen to the instructor at all times. If I snooze, I definitely will lose! O_o Secondly, the first two days involved a scenario about HARRY POTTER!!! *GASP* O.o I couldn't believe it! I started reading the sheet and noticed all the characters had names like "Dumbledore" and places like Ministry of Magic! Hahaha...I know...I thought it was silly too, but this exercise kept me awake for the first two days, so hopefully it'll keep me awake for the rest of the week!  
Weather Update: It's snowing a lot in Virginia!! WOOHOO! I only wish I brought my gloves so I could make a snowman in the snow.  Oh man, I bet my bears would have loved it, too! =( Too bad I didn't bring them. *sniff* *sniff* =( Nevermind and Actually feel a bit hot in Southern California (hey, they have fur, you know), so sometimes they ask if we could ever move to the East coast.

| Having Fun in DC...On Saturday, I had the wonderful opportunity to fly to DC for a few
days due to business also meet my wonderful friend Soon-You, too! Man,
what great times we had as I spent the night at her house the night of
my arrival...she was so gracious to feed me a late dinner and provide
tea and vitamin C drops because I felt a cold creeping up on me. After
my delicious meal, we had a group of people play Settlers of Catan!
Though it is a big complicated and it was my first time playing, I won!
 Hahaha...okay, maybe it was more fun for me because I won? ;)
I'm sure I wouldn't like the game as much if I hadn't won...=oP
On Sunday, after church, I rode the Amtrak to DC and checked into my
hotel. Though I didn't know my co-workers very well, we had great
stories to share...I couldn't stop laughing during our meals!
Hahaha...I still can't stop laughing at some of the stories I heard!!!
Overall, the trip was productive and a success! Met
some old co-workers from my training class and met some colleagues I
only knew by name, too! WOOHOO! Oh, and did I mention I really enjoyed
the weather (I heart cold weather) because I could wear my pretty winter clothes? ;) 
Sadly, the more I travel to DC, the more I want to stay and never return to California. *sigh*

| Over the Weekend...So here's the weekend update on what happened in my life:
1. Another Pittsburgh Reunion- On Saturday, I met my coolio
friends, Andy and Brian for some finger-lickin' good sushi, Red Mango,
and great fellowship!! It was so much fun catching up with them and
seeing how the Lord has worked in their lives...Man, after seeing them
I also couldn't help but think, "I miss my Pittsburgh friends..." *sniff* Oh yeah, they made me laugh a lot, too. Hahaha...=oP
2. Movies, movies, movies- My mom is definitely a fan of Brad
PItt as she loves Legends of the Fall and Meet Joe Black, so on
Christmas day, I decided to take her to see "The Curious Case of
Benjamin Button". I saw it again on Sunday since my friends wanted to
see it again... The other movie I saw was "The Day the Earth Stood
Still" with my buddy Dianna Vo! Hahaha...that girl cracks me up, too! ;)
3. Some Random Thoughts-Some names I like:
A. Tristan - Ever since I watched Legends of the Fall, I've loved the name Tristan.
It's also unique...how many Korean kids do you know with the name
Tristan? (*caveat: I've debated over the fact that "tristis" and
"triste" mean sadness, but it also means bold. =) )
B. Christian - I just like the name and it's different from the normal "Christopher". =)
C. David - I've always liked the name David, though it is very
common among the Korean-American population...perhaps I like it because
of King David in the Bible? O_o
D. Edmund - No reason...just like the name. It's also in the book "Chronicles of Narnia"...
E. Edward - Just like the name, too...and please don't think I just like the name because of Edward Cullen from Twilight. =oP
E. Bella -
I've realized I'm keen on the name "Bella". Not only does it mean
"Beautiful" in Italian, but again, it's unique and sounds pretty, too.
;)
F. Belle - I like this name for the same reason above, but it means "Beautiful" in French (not Italian). =oP
Aiight...that's all for now. Looks like January is going to be a busy, busy month for me! | | |
| Some Yummy Projects...For the last couple of months, I've decided to watch the Food Network
while I work out at the company's gym. I know it's an odd thing to do,
but the Food Network gives me good ideas! Anyways, so at first the guys
(co-workers) at first were a little reluctant to watch it with me, but
after a few episodes of Everyday Italian with Giada de Laurentis, they were won over. ;) Sometimes, on days I don't watch Giada, I will turn the channel to Everybody Loves Raymond...the guys like that, too. =oP
So here are a few things I've learned how to make from Giada:
1. Baked Caprese Salad: Hmm...this is my favorite so far.
Giada has introduced me to the wonderful world of fresh mozzarella and
basil. The warm bread topped with roma tomatoes, fresh mozzarella,
basil and drizzled with olive oil has a delectable taste when it
touches your mouth!!
2. Fresh Baked Pita Chips: Who would have known oven baked pita
chips tasted so good?? I surely didn't! Actually, I have to admit that
I never really ate pita chips until now. After watching how simple it
was, I decided it would be a delicious accommodation to my daily hummus
intake. Therefore, now I make my own pita chips.
3. Sweet Pea Crostini: I didn't know what prosciutto was until I attempted to make this dish...hmm...it was good! ;)
Stay tuned for more yummy projects! =)
