That used to be me. I'm quite jealous as one of the guys round the running track today was constantly running without stopping. Admittedly I could only handle 3 runs without stopping around the track. This guy was relentless. He kept going, going and going. Then I looked at myself and thought, one day that will be me. Once I reach that fitness level, I think I will be happy with myself. I just want to be able to run round a track constantly and only my breath stopping me from running. It seems that legs start to waiver if I run too much. I guess I need to lose weight in this area. But when I was around 16, I could run for miles without stopping. I was the relentless guy. I used to run 4 miles around my school track most of the time especially so in P.E. I could always lap around the group in my class and leave them behind. I could literally run as opposed to jog the whole way round.
Today on this date, I am pathetic. I can do 3 to maybe 4 runs without stopping. This is significant however as yesterday I could only achieve 2 runs around the track without stopping. I really pushed myself for the 3rd round but for the fourth, I just tried sprinting, then stopped half-way.
Anyways I'm happy with what I have done today. I ran around the track this afternoon 4 times and earlier in the day I ran round 7 times (In intervals), so 11 runs around the track in a day is quite a considerable amount for a beginner like myself. (Though I really used to be an expert) – I just need to get my fitness back and maybe that will self-motivate me if I have the power.
I guess I was quite disappointed, but I've got to look away from the past and look into the future. But I always, always remind myself, if I had not broken my leg years ago, I probably would have had a six pack, won my school's cross country race and would have had different views on life.
Whatever the case, bring on the future. 🙂

I went around and did some thinking for an unspecified amount of time. I didn’t really care about the time that I was wasting doing nothing but purely thinking. But the thing is, I don’t have a clue what I was thinking about. What is there to think about when your life sucks and there is nothing you can do about it. Either way, if I do, do something then I’m going to always hurt someone. I wish I could explain it.
Either way, it was a good going out, even thought it was raining. Taichung Park is quite beautiful and I especially liked it when there was no one there, since it was raining. I had the park all to myself.
But I was thinking about my parent and my sister. My sister doesn’t know the full picture, nor does she know how I feel at-all. I feel like shit right now, but she doesn’t know that. At least she has friends she can rely on. I have no one. I am alone in this world I feel. I have my dad I can relate to but even still I need someone else. I can’t go on living like this. Hopefully when I go into university to learn Chinese I’ll make some really good friends. I just feel really alone and sad because of this.
I’m scared for my future…
I guess I’m a little worried for my future. Or for a future I don’t have or one that I don’t want, essentially one that sucks. When walking to the park I saw two homeless people, they carry around 20 plastic bags around and they look through garbage to find bottles, cans and other raw materials so they can sell them to the recycling yard. I just don’t want that to ever be me. I’m sure those guys who are now homeless and are at the bottom of life would appreciate any help they could get. I mean what brought them to a situation to where they are now living on the streets. We were all innocent kids once, what in gods name cursed them into a situation where they are now living on the streets. As I write this now, 5-10 years from now I could be on the streets. In fact this blog won’t even exist. What will stop the inevitable if I run out of money or if I can’t make money? This is the capitalistic gnome of things. You can’t make money? Well guess what pal, you are fucked.

I haven’t posted an update in quite a while and that is because I’ve been quite busy. Anyway… headsets. I break them a lot. I seem to either destroy them internally making one side of my headset not work, in some cases both or even breaking the microphone which I use for Teamspeak, Skype and other various voice over IP (VOIP) programmes. I usually order headsets that are cheap from eBay as I’m too scared to order an expensive headset in case I break it. Though that might be my problem. For example the cheap headsets I’m buying break easily to tugging of wires and generally abuse because they are… cheap? 😮
Currently I’m using a £1 headset I bought in the local market near where I live and for greater comfort and beater noise enhancement I’ve adapted the the cheap headset to my more expensive (Cheap) headset and it works fine. But I’ve ordered another headset from eBay which comes with a blue-tooth like headset for computers, except it connects via wire and isn’t blue-tooth. (It just looks like those wireless blue-tooth headsets. Wish me luck with my future headsets. 😮

Welcome to my blog.
I’m not new to blogging and I’ve been blogging since 2006 under various domains. This is my latest domain name that I’ve been using for well over 2 years now, maybe even 3 years.
Jargoned. Apparently, this word is the past-participle of jargon; just kidding of course, considering Jargon is a noun and I don’t think you could use “jargoned” in any sensible vocabulary. Either way, it’s my little domain that has actually been registered for over 10 years. This site is mainly built on the “jargon” part of the word, as, I guess, well, I like talking/typing a load of jargon! – Or what a lot of people would perceive to be as jargon. Here are a few synonyms that represent what I mean:
babble, gabble, twaddle.
However, it won’t all be babble! I’ll be writing down some interesting articles which others may be interested in… maybe. In other words I consider this my personal blog! Enjoy!
