this is the first, and hopefully the last blog entry when i would be ranting and whining. what a frigging terrible day! im glad its about to be over! first, the lakers lost to clippers, and i have to watch the game with cousin and dad, 2 ppl who know almost nothing about basketball, their logic about the game is not only flawed, but it's laughable! then i played a 1 hr session 4 tabling 6 max nl and lost about 7 buy ins. after i lost the first 3, i should've quit, but somehow i didnt. i tilted away another 4 buy ins. what a freaking moron! LOL but u know, things could be worse. i was recently thinking about moving up to a new level, .25/.50 that is. so i guess not moving up would be a very wise decision by me :D lol i've learned that when never shit happens, we should keep a positive mental attitude, and no matter what the situation, we should always find 3 positive things. well, let's try it. 1st, im glad that i did not go play .25/.50 hu trying to win back the money cos that would be a disaster (unless i suck out a lot haha)! 2nd, my behavior wasnt reinforced so that means im less likely to play long hrs again in the upcoming weeks, and that's good because i'll be busy with school work and i'll be going to a business conference. 3rd, my built in high risk aversiveness will help me learn this kind of tilting/poor game selection mistakes so i wont make the same mistake again.

so there! i've whined and i've found 3 positives, and now im feeling much better! lol it's been sometime since i lost 7 buyins in a session. but who cares~ i have a nice family to watch basketball with, im in a great university, i have great friends, i work with amazing people whom i can learn a lot from. so yea, im happy to be me and im happy to have some of the qualities that i have =) also, one of my best friends just came back from france, so we'll be hanging out this weekend. oh! and im having dinner on friday with my high school crush...and her other friends lol it's been a long time since i last saw her. it's been almost 2 yrs so im looking forward to that!

life is still good after all!
