make a mistake

my first review of kinshop was great.  it was what i wanted at the time.  it was a night out.  it was dinner with friends. it was familiar asian flavors.  it had chili on the table.  it had tito and soda.  the 2nd time i just thought, why rave about reasonably priced asian flavors when i can just go for authentic asian flavors for cheap.  "it was consistent" - echang.  and so i planned for nyonya.  i made reservations for 7.  and we had 7.  and we ordered like we had 10.  i have never had good rendang outside of asia...i ordered it cuz we had enough people to order an extra dish in case it sucked....and IT WAS AWESOME!.   now if we could only get tendon in the rendang, i guess thats just our family recipe.  white people dont' like hainanese chicken.  and i ordered pork chop cuz the waitress said "the ang mohs will like it", and they did.  fish head curry better in flushing sheerly because the 沙鍋 is bigger.  and another thing to note is that their mee siam is wok fried and not soupy.  good!  all in all. good. cheap. fun. full.  yes.

everytime lax decides to take the next step in his life, it creates havoc in mine.  a few years ago i ask my mom what she wants for her bday.  she replies "i want stability in your life".  and everytime i tell my parents dan lax is engaged, married, now about to have a baby....that measuring stick of my close hs friend moving into legitimate adulthood makes my parents rage apparently.  im not close.  but i am on match.com hahaha. it all goes along the theory "whatever i was doing before wasn't working...so im just going to do something else".  relative change is a waste of time.  it needs to be a 180.  and doing the right thing for so many years almost feels like i've collected all these "hall passes"  all these "get out of jail free" cards.  at 30...it'd be nice to put some of these to use.  no one would judge that im sure.  i wouldn't go overboard.  but yes. i owe myself a mistake.  holler!
