    I was playing tourist again in San Francisco and saw this Alamo Square Park Shoe Garden. It’s amazing how many little things I still have not seen in this greatest city (next to Paris) in the world. From sfgate.com: Alamo Square Park: One of the most photographed spots in San Francisco, thanks to the breathtaking…

    I overheard a young 20 something dude talking at Ritual Coffee. “I don’t ever leave the Mission, maybe someday I’ll explore Berkeley” It reminds me of a Sex and City episode where the Manhattan Guy says to Carrie or Maranda that he ‘never leaves the island because everything is available in Manhattan, why do we…

    I admit I’m a bit obsessed with working at Yahoo!  I don’t work very very long hours but I spend a lot of my free time thinking about Yahoo!   I don’t believe I’m a workaholic, just someone who loves his job. I used to apologize for being so obsessed, but now I’ve come to terms…

    ( a random photo of SF civic center in the morning) Today a fellow Yahoo! engineer ping’ed me on IM and asked to shoot some 9-ball.   While we were playing, he mentioned that he was leaving in 2 days for the greener pasture of smaller startups. While I was still taking in the news, I…

    (you can click on the photo enlarge) I love the night scene in large cities.  It feels so alive, filled with the energy of human beings, full of lights and cars.  I’m on my bike over to the SF Metreon and looking at the sureal lights of the SF MOMA.

    Recently I’ve made a choice to be alone for a while, without being in a relationship. I find that I need some solitude time without ‘reporting’ or being accountable for my time. Being alone does have some drawbacks however. Example: I usually take the Yahoo! bus to SF civic center, heart of Little Saigon. Tonight…
