2010 State of the Stephen

Department of Family: Parents still live in LA. Sister moved into their new homes. I think for the most part everyone is happy and healthy so it's good! Nephew Niece probably still studying from 7am to 10pm... don't think I've ever worked so much in my life. Too bad we all live so far apart.

Grade: (A-)

Department of Friends: Great friends. In LA and NY. Perhaps need to branch out more and find some new blood. Going to the NBA All Star game this weekend with bunch of my friends from LA. Should be fun!

Grade: (B+)

Department of Labor: I've been fortunate to work on bunch of fun projects this year. Rolex, Home Depot, Betty Crocker, Adobe stuff. Zero complaints from me! And great hours. But stupid Wieden never called me back after having an interview with them last year for freelance.

Grade: (A)

Department of Health: Still haven't been sick for the past 2.5 years or so. Good sign. But when I do get sick, it's pneumonia or appendicitis. Could exercise more, but it's just too dang cold to go running or biking

Grade: (B)

Department of Technology:
I will upgrade my macbookPro/iPhone soon... hopefully in June? Will not buy the iPad, but want to test it out. Bought StarTrek® the movie for 16.99 from Amazon.com which I must say is a good deal.

Grade (C)

Department of Gaming:
Xbox: I was playing NBA 2k10, but had to go to war... so now playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2® Probably the best game ever created.
iPhone: Bejweled & Words with Friends (nobu23 in case anyone wants to play me.) I've only lost twice I believe in Words with Friends... Bejeweled is fun, but fricken Lani wins everytime so there's no point in playing it.
Computer Game: NONE. Waiting for Diablo 3.. but probably will come out in 2050 when I am about to die.

Grade (A)

Department of Apartment:
So it's around my 4th year or so living on St. Marks. And still love the location. But I get sunlight from the window MAYBE 5 min. a day which is really sad. The crazy/evil child has now grown up and doesn't cry and shout anymore. BUT the crazy rabid dog next door is still big and still very annoying. (one night howled the entire night...) The chicken place next door has closed down... but now they are doing daily constructions which wakes me up earlier than I want to be woken up. Tried looking for an apartment, but perhaps too many risks in the one place I was looking at.

Grade (B-)


Calculation: 3.75+3.25+4+3+2+4+2.75 = 22.75/7
