Henry Lubong's Journal

So we were at the hospital for my Mom almost all day yesterday. I didn’t have lunch and for some stupid reason, around 3 o’clock, I had a mocha. Early in the evening, I had this severe stomach pain that I’ve never experienced before in my life. We thought it was gas pain, so I [...]

I had a call this morning from my Dad that my Mom is at Kaiser hospital because of an unusual back pain. So we went there and got a chance to talked to the attending Doctor. We were told that it could be a kidney stone but they were still waiting for the test results [...]

I went to DMV today to transfer the title of my new motorcycle. Everything went smooth and quick! Less than 1 minute to find a parking, 4 minutes of waiting after I got my number, and in 11 minutes, I was able to obtain a registration slip and a new license plate. That’s very impressive!

We tried the best we can to save our baby but maybe it’s not meant to happen. The ultrasound gave the same result and Donna’s hGC level went down to 16,000. It’s not easy to accept that the baby we are expecting is now gone. But that’s how life is, we have to face the [...]

It could have been the worse vehicle related infraction of my life. And this time, I can’t make any contestation because I am guilty of all counts. Ok, so today at lunch, the final parts for my 98 ZX-6R track bike (the bike that I crashed) has arrived so I went ahead and put it [...]

Donna went for her hCG test this morning and just got the result. Amazingly, the previous hCG count of 27,000 went up to 50,000. This is good news. The fetus is causing this to go high so there is a possibility that the fetus is still alive. Her OB said it’s possible that the fetus’ [...]

We went to chruch this evening and ask our minister to annoint my wife with oil and pray for her. Nothing is impossible to God and miracles do happen.

I took Donna to her OB this morning for her monthly pregnancy checkup. She’s about 10 weeks. We were both excited because this will be the firts time we are going to hear our baby’s heartbeat. The MA took us to one of the rooms and she started doing a doppler test. We couldn’t hear [...]

Wow, I can’t believe I have been working for Wink for exactly 2 years today. With all the dramas and many changes, I survived the tides. When I was in Yahoo, there’s a tradition that every 2 years, you are given an option to look for a job in another business unit. They believe that [...]

After 4 months of ailing wrist from a bicycle mishap, I finally went to an Orthopedic doctor today. Three weeks ago, I had an x-ray done on my wrist and it came back negative – no fracture, no broken bones. My Ortho guessed I have torn ligaments in my left wrist. Sprain or torn ligaments [...]

I warned her about the CHiPs this morning but she just got unlucky today. 80 on a 65… ouch. No worries, contesting a radared ticket in court is a sure win.

I was riding home from work on 101 and I got stuck in traffic behind a VTA (Santa Clara Valley Transport Authority) public transit bus on lane #1. All of a sudden this bus started spewing black smoke spraying it all over me. My visor was all covered with oil and almost blinding me. My [...]

Calling someone a backstabber maybe too harsh but still I don’t regret what I said. I don’t like having enemies and I am not the type of person that holds grudges. I’ll leave that to past but I don’t condone that person’s actions.

It’s almost 1AM and I am very angry. I was checking my email at work and I caught something that I think is not meant to be seen by me. I’m not sure if the “sender” forgot to not include the original email in his forward or it was deliberately included in there. Apparently someone [...]

Thanks to my A/C, it’s keeping me and my daughter comfortable all day. In the previous years living in my house, when its triple digit outside, the temperature inside my house can reach up to 90 degrees. If you ask me, that’s almost close to hell. I can not tolerate that anymore. So, yeah, I [...]

We had her ear pierced today at Icing by Claire’s. My daughter is a brave girl. She cried for 5 seconds and back to playing again

Besides Porsche 911 Turbo, a Ducati Superbike is another dream machine that I’d like to have parked in my garage. I have long been lured by Ducati bikes specially the 999R. Last year, they released the 1098 in a typical Ducati red color. It has garnered lots of good reviews, both from magazines and owners. [...]

Gassed up my bike this morning before I went to work and I almost fell off my bike when I saw the gas price. $4.91 for a premium (91) gas!!!  Holy moly that’s just too high. It looks like $7/gallon is not far from reality. I don’t care what my Z3 feels right now but [...]

Today is Father’s Day and it’s also my first . My wife and daughter gave me a Norelco 8175XL razor.

We found this Bumbo Seat at Target today while shopping for her toys. She’s 4 months now and able to hold her head up. She can also get up on her feet now while I hold her hands. I was skeptical with this product at first because I’m afraid that she might not [...]
