Patrick's Diary - 7/6/2016

Being first time for a while on a working day,
Staying home after Sun way up the horizon,
Heading to Everett instead of office in Renton,
Seeing an used car waiting at Mazda already. 
Observing many ones in the lots parked neatly,
Noticing the van licensed a plate in Washington,
Learning a 09 model with 55K miles sport wagon,
Spending 10 grams the best option picked easily.
Appreciating salesman being warm & professional,
Going through the process without a problem,
Relying on Dennis' connection and suggestion.
Driving wonderful Mazda-5 on my way as personal,
Making 200K more miles on it another long term,
Driving it into hopeful future with fully affection.

Patrick's Diary - 7/5/2016

Driving Explorer Pickup Dennis lent to me,
Wondering how come back window missing. 
Learning this oddity when the day passing,
Rolling it down accidentally when hand free.
Reading news online of groping even rape,
Worrying if the teen in Karlstad camping,
Learning more assaults made in Norrkoping,
Questioning why so many rages and intense. 
Impressed by the quietness along the station,
Led to a plan of hanging days after retirement,
Shocked by these disgusting behaviors angrily.
Motivated by a great memory of fascination,
Drawn by breeze in last summer to the concert,
Ensured by Lord the garden forever peacefully.

Patrick's Diary - 7/4/2016

On the field at Lynnwood High practicing soccer,
At the gym in Canyon Business Park lifting weight.
Grabbing a dozen fresh tomatoes at Fred Meyer,
Snatching a power steering fluid from Napa Part.
Instabilities at Middle East shaking the world,
Witnessing the disasters on CNN full of sadness.
Safeties over the Nation concerning the homeland,
Catching the impression on faces with wariness.
On LSAT Prep Book reading the introduction,
At my son's bedroom suggesting him a study plan.
On HBO Entertainment rewatching an imagination,
In living room on big screen enjoying a lot of fun.
Neighbors still shooting up fireworks into the sky,
Americans cheering up for a joyful Fourth of July.


Patrick's Diary - 7/3/2016

French melting Icelanders' fairy tale,
Soccer becoming a spirit in Reykjavik.

Assessed son's desire for what to take,
Received books ordered in last week.
To apply Yale the top school of law,
Though the accepted chance to be slim.
To continue his pursuit of JD at UW,
But going to Georgetown to be a charm.

To Take LSAT in the winter of senior year,
To practice the questions within quarters.
To excel in his Bachelor of English Major,
To understand Shakespeare's complete works.
Driving Dennis' pickup to Regal in Everett,
Arguing The Legend of Tarzans recent best.

Patrick's Diary - 7/2/2016

On my way to the gym facing the dimmed universe,
At the corner of the intersection viewing the quiet road.
At McDonald's having big breakfast with hot cake,
In LA Fitness jogging half an hour before weight load.
Germans and Italians both walking into the field,
Fans witnessing the former getting over the latter,
Hector Sending horsepowers to the next round,
After falling of Muller, Ozil and Schweinsteiger.
Crossing fingers to hope Sounders' doing better,
Reviewing the list to count Rival's missing stars.
Taking a rest Dempsey not going as a leader,
Making a draw via an amazing curl by Morris. 

Watching the movie of The Intern to be the next,

Enjoying the 3rd time of Furious 7 to end the night.

Patrick's Diary - 7/1/2016


In the morning before Fourth of July long weekend,
On the freeway after most commuters taking break,
Weather repeating same pattern as in past week,
Coming home to worship Apollo on top of the road. 
On no channels soccer or politics being broadcasted,
Catching a traveling show on CNN never paying a look,
Scottish cuisine in Glasgow only learned from a book,
Planning a trip in next summer to wonderful Scotland.
In the last four years driving in Germany twice,
In addition to several road trips in 20th century,
Never knowing beers in Dusseldorf being better.
As teen learning a perfume originated from Cologne,
Just being told Italian foods also popular in this city,
Having a big bowl of spaghetti next time as a hunger.

Patrick's Diary - 6/30/2016

Clouds fully covering the sky at brunch,
Would Apollo show his face to earth?
Sunshine bringing the blue before lunch,
Could this perfection be present on Fourth?
An elementary buddy texting me on wechat,
He and three others coming to our lands.
To pick them up end of July at Seatac Airport,
Climbing Space Needle then eating gourmets.
Listening to the debates on Trump on CNN,
Heading to the gym to jog on treadmill.
Coming back home to watch replay on ESPN,
Viewing Portugueses over Poles on PK skill. 
Would tomorrow be another typical Friday?
Crossing fingers for a magnificent Monday!
