I just realized that this cam capture is from six years ago from yesterday! It’s amazing how long I’d been doing the webcam thing!

First Installment: 1998 Trip Home
Posted on July 2, 2005 by Ching under Family, Life.
In keeping with my promise to reload content form the old chingay.com web site, this is the first installment.
There’s actually four parts: (1) hanging out with my old friends, (2) our journey there, (3) pictures taken in Tanjay during the trip and (4) pictures taken during Mama Iyay’s birthday celebration while we were there.
I didn’t change anything so if there are typos, these were the original typos from 1998. All I have done is uploaded the files via FTP from the old zip disk to the new host. Anyway, there you go. There will be more to follow.

Welcome to My Planet
Posted on July 2, 2005 by Ching under Games.
Brian and I are obsessed with ogame. Every morning and before going to bed and sometimes throughout the day we’ll both be checking how our planets are doing. He now has three planets because he has been colonizing. I only have one because I just recently started. It’s super fun, though. You should all play! Sign up for Universe 4 so we can all play together.
Acck! My nerdiness is showing! LOL!
Anyway, we have to go shower. We’re meeting Brian’s parents at the Warren for the War of the Worlds 1:00 pm showing and they want us to be there early. They don’t like having their food delivered during the movie so we have to be there no later than 12:30 pm. Actually, neither do we.
P.S. We saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith last week and it was good. You all should see it. I will let you know what I think of War of the Worlds when we return (after I finish my homework, of course).

And the Moral of the Story is..
Posted on July 2, 2005 by Ching under Movies.
We saw War of the Worlds today. I thought it was great. I was on the edge of my seat. Brian said it’s better than the original. I never saw the original, though, so I can’t make that assessment.
Anyway, here’s what I figured.. If the aliens ever come to attack our planet, you’re better off staying at home and hiding in your basement. The aliens will soon die or leave anyway. The people who panic and go out and try to travel with the mobs, those are the ones who die. If you stay away from the crazy people and those who are trying to kill one another, then you’ll have a better chance of survival. Which leads me to the conclusion that Brian and I need to hurry up and fix up our house so we can sell it. We need to buy one with a basement. 😛
P.S. I provided a link to the War of the Worlds web site because they have some cool desktop wallpapers for your computer. You all know how I am about sharing the cool things that I find online. Enjoy!

Typical Poker Text Convo
Posted on July 1, 2005 by Ching under Poker, Sex.
ME: My table is full off callers. I pre-flop raise my pocket tens and I lose to a guy holding queen six. BRIAN: My table sucks too. You wanna dump and go home and have sex? ME: Sure. BRIAN: Let me know when you go all in. ME: You let me know when you go all in. BRIAN: Alright, I’m going all in. ME: No, no, no. Wait! A few minutes later Brian comes by my table. “I’m out,” he says. “Why?” I ask him. “I told you wait.” He just shrugs and walks off. Fast forward to the last hand before break. A couple of people call the $100 blind. Shawn raises to $200. Darren re-raises to $400. Matt and Ken both fold. I go all in over the top. Everyone else folds except for Darren who calls my all in. I happened to have more chips than he did so I ended up taking $400 back. We roll our cards up. He has ace queen of clubs. I have pocket nines. Flop comes eight, eight, junk. Nines are holding so far. A queen comes on the turn — aah, but it’s the queen of spades. One more spade and I get a flush. Sure enough, another spade came on the river. Four spades on the board plus my nine of spades. I took the hand with a flush. It’s funny how the lead changes with every card that is turned over. First I was in the lead, then he took it by pairing his queens and then I ended up winning the pot. So we chip up and then it’s break time. I play a hand of knock poker. As we are starting, I get this text message from Brian saying “Come lay on the couch with me.” We lay together for a bit. We agree to go home and have sex as soon as I get knocked out. Although, I think this was just a ploy because Brian had nothing to do and was bored. So then break is over and we resume play. Second or third hand in, I pre-flop raise my ace king. I had two callers. Dude next to me called my $600 raise with a ten seven. I guess because the cards were suited. LOL. I bluff at the pot and go all in. Little did I know that the guy tripped his tens. Who would’ve figured that he would call with junk? Anyway, I had a feeling. Brian was already out, though. There was no reason to stay. Besides, who would pass up an opportunity to have sex? As we were walking out Brian goes, “I feel like having some ice cream.” Delaying the inevitable. But I couldn’t turn down Cold Stone. Our favorite thing there is to split chocolate ice cream with almonds and chocolate shavings in a chocolate dipped waffle bowl. Yummy! So we agree to have sex after ice cream. I’m waiting for him to get done now. Okay, he’s finished eating his ice cream. Time for sex. Holler at you all later! =P
