today turned out to be more productive than I had anticipated.

and I am back at work. My vacation made me realize that how much I hate routine and waking up early and planning things in advance. I just want to do whatever I want. I need to retire soon. Now I am more motivated to do my own thing. i do have slight change of priorities, I will work on my SCJD before I restart working on FB app.

Wow this chocolate is way too perfect. I will go to pray tonight and read something right now.

last week was nightmare. I changed my work schedule to go in late and work late in the evening. I thought it would give me all the time to do my own things in the morning but I ended up just sleeping trough the mornings. There is not much I can do late at the night. So today I asked my boss to go back on original schedule.

I was on my way to home right but there was huge traffic jam on 360. So I decided to stop by Starbucks. I should have gone for rock climbing.

I didn’t run at all last week. So bad!

And I couldn’t work on my SCJD project and facebook project.

I was super busy with work stuff. I did manage to eat at new and different resturant everyday last week. Let me see, here are some of the places I ate at:

• Cool River Cafe
• Budz Spuds (near work)
• Astoria Coffee Shop (in Addison Circle)
• Boun Giorno
• Coffee Haus
• McDonalds

I have decided to get my own place. I already found the place. I think I will move in there on July 1st.

I just realized that I spend $8.00 to go to work and come back. Ouch!

My vacation got pushed to August. Oh well!

Ralph is back in town.

I guess I will work on SCJD now.

Weekend is almost over. How did I do on my goals?

First the good, I played with facebook api. I figured out a few key things. I setup repository to store code.

Then the bad, I didn’t run at all this week. I did rock climbed twice. I also used stepper but just for ten minutes.

Lastly, the ugly, I could not work on SCJD project. Only thing I did was setup repository.

So the goals for this week are:

• to run at least once
• setup contractor class for SCJD
• display all your friends photos

I know its a bit late for new year’s resolutions. I actually made these resolutions at the beginning of the year but I haven’t made much progress on these. One of my favorite blog write, recommends that if you are unable to keep your resolutions, then make those resolutions public. Let everyone see your resolutions. Then make yourself accountable by reporting your progress to those who you know about your resolutions.

So I plan to announce my resolutions for this year, and I will report at least weekly progress on these resolutions. Here are my resolutions:

• Get my SCJD Certification
• Run for an hour (I can run and walk for an hour)
• Learn Arabic (I am going to weekly classes)
  

I am also adding my big project of making $1,000,000 to this list. I was talking to Karl and he told me why don’t you make dating website. After some thought I figure why not make this dating website for facebook. A lot of my developer friends are into facebook apps. And I like my friend, Jordan’s saying that in order to get rich you don’t need an original idea. You can use any idea or business and just execute it better. So I think I can make a better dating app for facebook. (although there are already tens of such apps). I don’t think this dating app will make me money but it will be sort of proof of concept.

So I have 4 tasks to report on every week and hopefully more often.
