Beef Pan Fried Noodles – Milpitas, CA
Ever had a meal that wasn’t bad but wasn’t good? I guess the only category to classify it under would be “blah”. In my opinion, food has to be good. You don’t put things in your mouth that don’t taste good. The storage space in your stomach is very precious, so precious that only delicious [...]
Crab Alfredo Pasta – Fremont, CA
This particular restaurant is a favorite of mine, it consistently offers great service and delicious food. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad experience there! The only downside of visiting this restaurant is that there is often a wait to be seated (generally between 10 to 20 minutes), but good food is [...]
Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs – Union City, CA
Looks can be deceiving…. and just that plain fact can make a meal that much more disappointing. Despite the fact that this restaurant is a nationwide chain, the quality of both food and service were well below par… as were most of the patrons at this particular location. Overall the night’s (02/05/2010) experience was definitely [...]
Aion – Spiritmaster
My current MMORPG addiction is NCSoft’s Aion (released for NA last year). Although I’m obsessed over this game, I have learned to control and curb the addiction. Lately I’ve been limiting the amount of time I spend in game, which is awesome, but at the same time I itch to play the game periodically throughout [...]
Cruise – Mexican Riviera – Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, & Puerto Vallarta!
On 1/17/2010, I embarked on a 7 day cruise to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta. The cruise was booked with Royal Caribbean, and the ship’s name was Mariner of the Seas. The trip overall was fantastic, very relaxing, and tons of good weather (after we left stormy San Pedro, CA)… While everyone at [...]
Pho – Union City, CA
Every so often I get a craving for a deliciously rich beef broth, and when that craving hits… I know its PHO time! :D Tried a new Vietnamese restaurant last night, and ofc, had to have the Pho noodles. While not as good as the Pho restaurant that I usually frequent, it was still NOM. [...]
Hot Pot! – Milpitas, CA
One of my favorite meals.. ever. The way it works is that you cook the food right there at the table where you are sitting. Typically you’ll receive a pot of soup base on top of a portable stove, and then all the items you want in raw form. Raw beef slices, pork, chicken, fish [...]
Chicken Parmesan Ciabatta Sandwich – Milpitas, CA
So, a couple weeks ago (1/26/2010) I went out to dinner with my sister to a restaurant where we are almost always guaranteed bad service. The servers are negligent, mildly rude, and severely unhelpful. Half the time it takes us at least 15 minutes to get a server to even come to our table (this [...]
My primary Happys :D
As this blog is mainly going to be about things that make me happy, I believe it would be prudent to list the main topics of my site that I would like to start with. Food & Drink (Noms) Gaming (Aion) Travelling (Wandering) Arts & Crafts (Arrrt!)
It starts…
Alrighty folks, welcome to AsLongAsYoureHappy.com! I’ve been harboring this domain for a few years and have finally decided to do something with it. The lives we lead can be mundane, even reptitive, and I often find myself wondering if we are truly happy. Are people happy going to their normal 9 to 5 jobs? Doing [...]
