Vicks Sinex
man, this stuff turns my mourning into dancing!
i guess i’ve come to realize that my nose gets pretty stuffed during certain allergy seasons. thankfully, it’s just stuffy nose and not sinus pressure or watery eyes or anything like that. but when it does get stuffed it sucks! the vicks nasal spray (pictured above) has given me the quickest and most satisfying relief. there are other similar products on the market that come in a similar form - gel - but i think the mist spray is the best.
here’s why.
a spray will bother the fack out of you and make you sneeze like crazy for the first minute. at first, i didn’t look forward to this side effect, but if you’ve had a clogged nasal passage before, you know that nothing opens that sucker up like a sneeze. so there i am, sneezing like crazy, but at the same time i feel the effects of the vicks vapors start to take effect. this is an awesome feeling. after this happens i’ll start to feel my nasal passages clog up again and then i’ll be all like “OH NO!” but no worries, it’s just snot. i blow all that crap out and just then just wait a couple minutes for my nostrils to really clear up.
effect will last at least a good 12 hours!
it’s awesome in a bottle.

this is simply the most amazing display of skill on a bicycle. i’m subscribed to a bunch of blogs dedicated to all things bicycling and have seriously gotten tired of watching all these kids on fixies spinning around and skidding and acting all alternative. in the past 6 months it seems like everyone and their mothers and grandmothers and great grandmothers have been releasing trailers for fixed gear videos. they were cool at first - now they’re a little boring and a little annoying. but THIS…this is FRESH (and i mean this in the literal sense and 90’s lingo sense)!!!
this has got to deliver a pretty humbling blow to the community of bicylists who think they’re hot stuff! GOOD!

2 commentsNew Zune?
so it seems like this is Microsoft’s next offering for their Zune players (confirmed by a small handful of reliable sources). honestly, i think it looks pretty nice. no word on specs yet, but from the looks of it, it’s gotta be a touch-screen device. and the skinny thing that looks like a button might be similar to the ipod touch/iphone’s home button.
i have the first-gen zune and i actually think it’s still a nice solid music player with a very nice UI. i wonder what this new Zune can do…

here’s a short conversation I had with my grandpa over dinner (my mom butted in a little bit).
I love my wise and understanding grandpa!

like “ping-gaw” (apple in Cantonese)
I’ve been eating these pink trangle things as long as I can remember. I thought it was a Chinese thing. but I’m starting to think that it might just be a Yung family recipe.
all it is is mainly rice and some other things wrapped around a pink dough which is later pressed onto a pattern. then it’s fried like an egg. it’s good. :)

man has been fascinated by flight for as long as history can tell.
i am a man.
if you’re into R/C’s and helicopters, you gotta get yourself one of these bad boys. just search ebay for “syma s010″ and you’ll find the one i have in the picture. 30 bucks a pop! this is the best one in the $30 range. lots of fun but at the same time very therapeutic.
