Zero Discipline

July 23rd, 2010 admin No comments

I’m not proud of it, but my kids were never disciplined. My wife and I can’t do it. I may raise my voice, but when I do, Ellen gets so emotional that I immediately turn to comfort her. Sydney thinks it’s a game and she turns all bubbly and gets super cute. She has that effects on people.

I can honestly count the time we gave time outs since we’ve only done it within the number of fingers we have. Probably the biggest problem is that there’s nothing in this world I hate more than to see my children sad in any ways. I just can’t handle it.

I know what you’re thinking, but you have to understand that my girls are really really good in nature and they do know what’s right and wrong. I think they pick that up from the sadness in our facial expressions. However, this super spoilage must stop.

It will be my personal mission to research all disciplinary techniques next couple of weeks and will note the progress here. Wish me luck!

Independence Day

July 4th, 2010 admin No comments

I almost forgot that today’s the Independence Day. Ever since I “grew up”, Independence Day doesn’t feel the same as when I was a kid.

Growing up right across the Hudson River, July 4th meant watching awesome fireworks and BBQ. I used to get excited about celebrating America’s independence, which for me, used to mean freedom, liberty, and equality of all men. I firmly believe that those ideals are dead as we move closer to socialism, but that’s another conversation.

I don’t know when it changed, but I now believe that I’m not and will never be an “American”. Why? For one thing, my wife got harassed by a lady in supermarket who told her to “go back”. I get compliments because I speak natively. If you’ve been to Korea, don’t ask me about certain places because I don’t know.

Sad, isn’t it?

Well, Happy Birthday America, and I just pray that you don’t do what you did to me to my children.

We were at Asahi, our favorite Japanese restaurant. When asked what she’s doing with a chopsticks and a cup of water, she says she’s fishing.

Google’s Nexus One Failure

March 21st, 2010 admin No comments

I just read that Google’s Nexus One only sold about 1/10th of iPhone and Droid during its first 74 days since the introduction. Obviously, this is a monumental failure, there’s no argument there. What I don’t understand is that people are saying that this is due to lack of advertisement.

Are you that stupid?

If you think about it, Google put the best phone on the market on the network nobody’s using. It is a phone after all, and they could’ve made a killing picking up all the people pissed off with AT&T, including me. Trust me, it’s not about advertising when my family knows about Nexus One.

The way I see it, it’s not the Nexus One that will kill iPhone, but it’s the AT&T in US.
