While the United States and the world have been going through some stuff (understatement of the week), things have been relatively quiet around the office… It’s been a little slow, but I guess it has allowed me to think about what’s going on around me.

So yeah, eleven or so days into his presidency and Donald Trump has made things… “difficult”? Yeah I know, another understatement, but is his presidency going to be like this the entire time? It is so tumultuous that I can’t see it leading to anything but bad… not just for him, but for everyone. Maybe it’s because I’ve been watching The Man in the High Castle- a very interesting show on Amazon, it shows a dystopian view of the world if the Nazis won World War II… with some sci-fi elements added for spice. But in the show, it shows the small resistance of the people who want to restore the United States from German rule. (I won’t go into more, just check it out if you have Amazon Prime)… Then I stated thinking about Battlestar Galactica, where there was a “fixed election” that was ultimately rectified, then the new president was horrible…

So I dunno… it’s hard to see all these things in Hawaii since we (Asians) are the majority. I “semi-joke” that since we’re Asians, we will be the fourth wave of minority that gets deported… see, only semi- joking since it really could happen… Scary thought…

Well aside from that, I was able to see Rogue One. A very good movie. It really tied up a few of the loose ends from Star Wars episode 4 in a concise and insulated show. I am looking forward to Episode 8
The Last Jedi as well as the new Han Solo film.

I was able to celebrate two of my friends birthdays this past weekend, so that was fun! Happy Birthday to Liane and Joanna!!!

The “Big Game” is coming up… the Pro Bowl was a blah… Are all of you going to have a watching party?

Well, back to work…
