back at work

Been silently putting in average 4 hours days for the last week, but running so incredible bad that im stuck quite a lot for this month, slowly back to my standard 8 hour averages now... the sites im playing on their software is so bad and laggy that I had to buy a new laptop to make sure that im able to grind normally... so say hello to another spew. Bought the best available laptop in the shop, which was either an Acer or an HP with Intel Core i7 and 8gb DDR3 ram and a 4GB DDR3 ATI vga card, which is basically a very high end spec for a laptop lol. Anyways I went for the HP this time because I wasn't too happy with my last laptop which was an Acer... actualy I wanted to buy the Asus NX90 or the Alienware MX17 but first one wasn't available and the last one was so overpriced in Thailand in comparison with Dell online USA shop.

Anyways, I got injured playing football last week, got a stubbed left toe and a bruised shin after the game.. so have to take it a bit easy for the coming week.. although I just felt that I was making improvements on my conditioning lol.

Honestly felt that coaching my friends takes up so much time, was hoping it would be less.. but no turning back now. One guy already dropped the course, that's one less I suppose.. yep it's not easy to make money out of poker nowadays.. it takes a lot of time, dedication and hard work. That's just how it is... after my long break, I feel like I have to start over again, definitely not playing good also in combo with running bad. Hope my focus will be back and I can make some monies again soon.

sick :(

have been sick the past few weeks, it really all started just before I made my trip out of Bangkok for my student visa to Vientiane, started to cough a little bit, and it only got worse by then sigh.. didn't do much during my trip, just did a few touristy spots and chilled out at a few nice restaurants and enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. I got my visa fixed pretty quickly so I'm pretty much settled for at least a year here in Bangkok. Only thing that annoyed me the last week is that my coughing doesn't seem to be stopping very quickly, and I can't really focus or concentrate on my grinding, so I decided to take a (well now extremely) long break from the felt and just do some side work like my affiliate business. I'm on like a ton of medication, so I guess it's normal that I'm not able to fully focus and feel a bit dizzy and very tired all the time. Hope this will go away soon and I can make another sick month. Wish all you guys a happy chinese new year also, hopefully the rabbit brings us all good fortune.
