Two tickets to Cirque du Soleil + Bouquet of roses + Beautiful sunset + Probably fancy dinner in Yaletown. Total Price: $145*2 + $60 + $60*2 = $470 (Or $720 total if VIP tickets were purchased instead of just regular front row seats, which is a high, HIGH possibility. I mean, if I was rich, the difference between $145 and $270 is not much. I'd ball out because I'm trying to court the girl, and I'd go with the VIP tix. I mean, if I was gonna go the extra mile and buy $60 roses, why not just add another $250 and get the VIP experience for Cirque du Soleil? I mean, I wouldn't have to put any extra effort in at all. I'd just have to purchase different tickets, that's all.)
Result: Got the girl.
Trip to Lighthouse Park + snacks + Milestones.
Total Price: $15 + $20*2 = $45
Result: Didn't get the girl.
Conclusion: Money is correlated with success in courting. Sample size of 1 is not enough to draw a conclusion. More samples are required.
This is just one out of a billion reasons why I need to get rich or die trying.
I don't have much money, but boy, if I did... I'd buy a big house where we both could live.

My first follower! Bonus post for her. PLUS Conclusion for Ms. Zun
Well, turns out my random posts/rants about my life has managed to land me a follower lol. I wasn't gonna post a post tonight, but I'll do one just for this follower, as a welcome gift of sorts. It's not gonna be much, just a summary of my day today.
So, the first day as a guy who's objectively single again, I felt like I had to reinvent myself. I went out and bought a new old badminton racket. I used my sister's leftover BG-65 Ti strings so I don't have to pay for new strings, and got a pink overgrip to match the strings. The paint job is a nice chrome color, which they don't make anymore, for any of the manufacturers. $50 bucks for the racket + $11 for stringing, and I got the bag and overgrip for free. Not bad. The racket is an even balance, and it has a slightly larger head for a bigger sweet spot. Why pink? To make guys feel bad when I beat em with a pink racket. I want to put hello kitty stickers on it too actually. No joke.
Also got a haircut. I don't want to take a pic of myself, but I went and got a haircut that was very different than anything I had before. Shaved sides, and long middle, so I can gel it. Kinda looks like this:
Had the haircut in Richmond in this Plaza. It had like 5 different hair salons, and the first two I went to charged $33-$35 bucks, to which I said no way. The third place charged $13, which I thought was reasonable, and the barber was super friendly, and he shared the same name as me too. I'll def go there again.
Went to watch X-Men: Days of Future Past, and it was a great movie. I thoroughly enjoyed the mind fucks and how it ties in with the trilogy and First Class. Okay, I'll admit that I've never watched the trilogy, but I did watch First Class. Went with the same group of friends. Good thing with that group is that there are some girls there that are kind of cute, and I wouldn't mind dating for physical intimacy's sake, but I don't know if they'll make great future wife/moms. I don't know if I should think about that aspect of a girl at this early stage of my life (23). But then again, why be with a girl when you know that eventually, you'll have to break up? If I know that from the start, why should I get emotionally and financially invested in said person? Well, I can answer my own question. I miss the emotional and physical intimacy of having a good gal around. Even if they are not marriage material, they can still be GF material, and sometimes I think that's enough to get me by. I am actually not sure where I stand on this issue. Maybe my follower can post a comment and enlighten me on this issue.
One good thing about having so much shit to think about, like how I'm going to make money and how I'm gonna find The One, I am never bored. I can easily fall back into thinking and planning. My time is never wasted, and my brain is never idle, except when I sleep.
Lastly,
Mah boy Taeyang came out with his new album, Rise. This song, Eyes, Nose, Lips, is great. The melody perfectly suits how I'm feeling about this Ms. Zun. She's basically gone. Actually, that's not true. Here's what I typed to her:
Which she replied:
I'm pretty sure she's just saying all that to be nice. She doesn't know me well enough to know how awesome I am, but it's not her fault. I hope this last bit makes all my 2 followers of this drama satisfied. I'll try this Ms. Zun again next year after I'm back from Korea.

TL;DR = This wall o’ text is not sappy nor is it typed in desperation.
Hehe, don’t worry. I’m not as oblivious to the signs as you think I am. I just chose to ignore em all until you’ve “come clean”, which you have, so now I’ll acknowledge it. I was scrolling through my newsfeed when I saw the Cirque pics, and I gave pinky a gentlemen golf clap, because it seems his execution that night was near flawless. This revelation didn’t take me by surprise though, because I’ve already thought of most of the ways of how our little thing could end, and this was one of em, so I already have a lil something prepared.
To make your decision easier, I’m gonna tell you right now, go for pinky. Why? Because I’m going to be leaving the country for the next year, and I’m leaving July 28th. #Shyamalan #PlotTwist. Well, maybe you figured it out too. You’re a bright girl, so I wouldn’t be surprised if you knew I was gonna ditch Canada for Korea. I’ll be teaching English there.
My original plan, before I met you, was to just kind of date around on POF, and not even give it much thought precisely because it would be super short term anyway. I’d go to Korea, have fun, and hopefully meet a cute Korean girl I could date while I’m there. Maybe I’d even meet a fellow ESL teacher that I could date as well.
But then some sunuvagun called ThirdFloorasaurus (spelling is correct?), replied to my messages, and the TL;DR of that whole thing is, I changed my plan to accommodate for said person. I decided that the best strategy would be to see this person as much as I could before I leave, and establish enough rapport and feelings that this person would be willing to continue the budding relationship as a long distance one. Yes, I was willing to go to Korea, the land full of cute plasticky girls, with the status of taken, and basically turn off my radar that helps me hunt for potential girlfriends. I had a game plan all ready to go, which includes me mailing you little care packets from Korea weekly.
And we all know how that plan worked out. I don’t blame you nor I though. I don’t blame myself because I tried my best, and that’s enough. I don’t blame you because who am I to say what you should feel, right? And quite frankly, I don’t need you. My lungs will still expand and contract without you. My S.A. node will keep on setting the pace without you. I’ll still be as happy as before I met you, which, from all my activities, is pretty damn happy.
What I won’t be without you though, is that I won’t have the chance to be exponentially happier than I’ve ever been in my life if I had the chance to call you my girl, officially, for the whole world to know. But that’s fine, it only took me 23 years to meet someone like you. I’m sure if I search for another 23 years, I’d find someone to replace you
I hope you can excuse my greediness, and the fact that I wanted to hog you for myself, even though I’d be in Korea. So let’s make a deal. We’ll still keep in touch, you go date this Pinky person, and I’ll try my shenanigans in Korea. After one year, when I’m back again, we’ll convene again and see if the timing will be better. Sounds fair?
PS: I don’t mean to inflate your ego further, but I must emphasize that you’re pretty much cream of the crop, and you deserve the best of the best guys out there, however you determine what is “the best of the best”. Make sure this pinky dude is legit, and make sure this person brings out the best in you, and makes you strive to become a better person every day, like you’ve made me strive. Also, thanks for showing me that unicorns do exist. I’ve always doubted whether smart, kind, and pretty girls existed in this world, but then I met you. Now I’m never gonna settle for anything less. Thanks for setting the bar so damn high
PPS: I was planning to tell you everything during our next meet up, and I was gonna show you this vid, but apparently it’s not gonna happen, so here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxdsxZ8AeBU#t=545
Make sure you start from 9:05. They sung this song for me to you.
Which she replied:
You're a good guy, XXX. And that sounds really really really amazing. Live life while young right? I hope you have a great experience in Korea. Do all the cool things, meet great people. And girls. ;D
I think life is all about chance and timing anyways. So I think that's perfectly fair. I haven't met a guy like you ever So ready to take on the world haha. So keep on being that person and I'm sure you'll achieve anything you want
I'm pretty sure she's just saying all that to be nice. She doesn't know me well enough to know how awesome I am, but it's not her fault. I hope this last bit makes all my 2 followers of this drama satisfied. I'll try this Ms. Zun again next year after I'm back from Korea.

You know when you hear a song, and you swear they're singing about you?
Well, that happened to me today...
April 26th was this vid's release date. Please watch from 8:56, where the two men, Shin Yongjae and Yoon Minsoo sing a cover of Lee Sun Hee's "fate"
This song resonated fiercely within me, because, as my loyal readers would know, I am facing the problem of leaving Canada and leaving her to teach English in Korea for a year.
As for this song, it's one thing for Yongjae and Minsoo to sing it with such passion and emotion... but when you add in a relevant and touching lyrics, I went on a feels trip with Ms. Feelsle.
(Btw, in case you're wondering, the girls are from Girl's Day.)
Some of the lyrics that resonated within me:
-"I promise you, when this all passes, and I get to see you again, I will throw away everything to spend the rest of my life by your side."
-"Our meeting was short like a drunken stupor, but the love settle in my heart. Even if our love doesn't last, I have no regrets. Nothing lasts forever."
-"You are the gift in this lonely journey of life."
-"When we meet again after a long journey, don't let me go."
Lol, I just realized these lines are like half the song already haha. Actually, I should have just copy and pasted the lyrics of this song on here, and just say I like every single line of this song.
Sigh, their performance of this song made me cry man tears, which are very distinct from general tears (different chemical composition). They should have won...
Someday, I'll show Ms. Zun this song... and she'll share the same feels as me... hopefully.
Me, 화이팅!
