Imma buy you a drank

... or not.

I was just at the gym and noticed how SOOO many people go at night.

Anyway... it was kind of awkward since I anticipated that only the night-dwellers were going to be working out. It turns out everyone is a owl. I wore my short shorts and everything... How embarrassing.

Trying to sip water while running is NOT a good idea. Learned that the hard way. Think: You have a fork in your mouth and someone just shoves it in. Booo.

Also, the showers smell like Chinese breath. No offense but most Chinese (particularly the older males) have a mixture-of-moth-balls-and-some-soup-they-had-for-dinner-or-something breath. Except this time, it was huge Chinese man who blew his lungs out so it intoxicated the whole shower area.

Got lots o government homework to do. I wonder if I write really small, could I fit the whole chapter one outline onto a notecard? We'll see..

Cause everyone needs a good laugh

I hope anyone can come on my blog and experience the laughs and grievances I face. Think.... bittersweet.

So for the -sweet:



Please ignore this if you've already seen it and experienced the hilarity it with me.
,
"Hilarity" is a gross word because it reminds me of Hillary.

Using the power of mnemonics, I shall compose a sentence:
Hillary is the center of hilarity whenever she makes her ridiculous claims about her experience lack thereof.

It makes me sad that Obama isn't doing to hotly in the polls. Despite his constant endorsements by top-notch family names, I guess America is being way too brainwashed. I'm planning on doing door-to-door campaigning on Saturday so hopefully my endorsement will turn the tide. :o) I kid. I just look forward to mounting a lawn sign in front of my house, although my dad is an avid Hillary supporter. Little does he know I'm going to sabotage him from voting on Super Tuesday. Muahaha.

ENOUGH POLITIKKKS!

I can't wait to get a new digi camera for my birthday so I can start doing video posts! Yikes. Any other recommendations except Canon?? I was thinking Lumix cause Costco is having a sale... I dunno.

Isn't it quite disturbing when people you don't even know just stare. Oh goodness. The showers in the gym just get way too awkward for me. Although I did see this Mexican with a huge schmlong... or maybe he was super happy to see me. :] Kkkkkkk I'm gonna go now.



(Fake-n-bake) TANNING WITH LESLIE TOMORROW. And a private catwalk lesson as well.

Day In, Day Out

I have tons of Government stuff to do but I'll hold it off just a little bit.

A quote I've read on Nobody's Fool by Richard Russo:
"To Rub's mind, Sully's one human flaw was that he didn't seem to want much more than he had, which seemed unaccountable. If you were standing outside in the cold and wet, it was only natural to wish you were inside where it was warm and dry, so Rub wished it, and not just selfishly for himself, but for Sully too. That was friendship."

Don't want to go in a full-on analysis on this but I think it speaks loudly for itself.

I have numerous, non-medical OCDs.

Would it kill me if I stopped using first-person pronouns? I'm so used to describing "me" and "I" that others are left behind. Try, try, TRY.

Should I give up or just should I just keep chasing pavement, even if it leads nowhere

If you looked at my previous post, you can probably tell that I'm obsessed with the song. I just can't stop stressing to myself how many people might think this exact same way. We know that we're in love but also the sad fact that we'll only be chasing pavement in the end. Our decision is stressful: whether to trust our gut and blindly follow the one we'll never have or try to deal with the unbearable pain to come in the end. In conclusion, isn't that what it all filters down to?

Word of the day: Pretext
A flimsy excuse or improper reason offered to hide reality.
Example: We knew her intentions and didn't believe her pretext for leaving.

I see infinite uses for this word.

How can everything you build up be lost so easily? Trust that takes years to amass can be swiped in a matter of seconds, a building that takes so much time and money can be eradicated by a single hurricane, a reputation can be construed in a snap. Although I wish this wasn't the case, I feel like everyone needs to have their facades up at all times. When for a single second we let ourselves vulnerable, the right catastrophe is ready to strike. Watch out!

And just for clarification: OBAMA 08

Genius

I've made up my mind,
Don't need to think it over,
if I'm wrong I am right,
Don't need to look no further,
This ain't lust,
i know this is love but,

If i tell the world,
I'll never say enough,
Cause it was not said to you,
And thats exactly what i need to do,
If I'm in love with you,

Should i give up,
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If i knew my place should i leave it there?
Should i give up,
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

I'd build myself up,
And fly around in circles,
Wait then as my heart drops,
and my back begins to tingle
finally could this be it

Should i give up,
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If i knew my place should i leave it there?
Should i give up,
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything

I hate it when I don't get the courage to talk to someone who's cute. For instance, I'm doing it right now.


I really want to take time to get to know as many people's individual stories as possible. I know I may write too many blog posts and whatnot but I really encourage you guys to do the same. Life is intruiging and the more you get to know, the more experiences you're sharing. The idea is absurd but makes tons of sense. Share the joy, even if the reader can't experience it personally.


Who wants to encourage me to memorize at least ten vocabulary words everyday?


Damnit why am I so shy?

Going post crazy!

I know I do a few too many of these in one day but hey, they're impulsive...

So what came first, the chicken or the egg? HACKNEYED!

But I think the egg came first (at least two). Come on how is one single chicken gonna get sperminated. That makes no sense to me whatsoever. However if there was at least two eggs laying around and hatched due to constant heat exposure, it starts to make a little bit more sense.

Go to sleep John!!

Super Sticky Post-Its make the world spin

I know I'm a little too strong on my opinions but I DO NOT like Hilary. It's just my opinion and let me state why.
1. She has no presence. You can't have your husband run the White House for you and you're gonna make the most powerful country in the world seem like a pixieland for God's sakes. You can wear all the pastel colored power suits you want but that won't come anywhere near a man's attire no matter how hard you try.
2. Most Hilary supporters (now I emphasize the word MOST) are ignorant of politics. It's just a conversation starter for them. When asked about who they're gonna vote for, the only one that pops up is Hilary simply because she did a lot of campaigning. Once again, she has her husband to thank for that.
3. Her plans for healthcare are certainly gonna lead us into an economic recession or even a depression. Lets see... I just googled this and found out that approximately 16% (47 m) of the American population doesn't have healthcare. An average healthcare cost is $6,700 per person. Hillary wants to help or force these guys to pay along with aiding everyone else to remain paying their full coverages? Oh no ma'am. That's not gonna happen with our hard earned tax dollars, which leads us to...
4. She's planning to take more money from our checks. I know Dem usually tend to do this but who knows what kind of skyrocketing numbers she's gonna produce. Damn I don't even wanna work anymore.

Alright I just needed to rant that out. Agree or disagree, feel free to raise my blood pressure.

Norma Rae is an....inspiring movie. I think this week I'm gonna try to watch more classics. I have a few at home. Casabalanca, Ben Hur, etc. Does anyone know where to find Ciao!Manhattan around here? After factory girl, I've gotten a strange infinity for Edie Sedgwick. Screw Audrey Hepburn, Sedgwick is the real star.

I love a clean room but I hate a sweater that needs to be dry cleaned.

Fortune does not change men, it unmasks them

I'm in the car stuck in traffic right now. When did Colima become so fuckin hectic? I shouldn't be typing for the best of my interest. Oh well, sue me.

I bought the best workout shorts at Target. Lydia said that some people get addicted to working out. I wonder if that's my case.

Wish list (although I already sort of made one in the previous entry):
-digital camera
-phone with a camera
-neverending supply of AA tshirts cause Lizabeth likes them so much
-2 gig memory chip that uploads pix directly onto other PCs and other online applications
-a world sans the word "sans"
-new red iPod shuffle to workout in
-a neverending list of mind-provoking indie films
-Britney's sanity
-cheaper deodorant ($5 for a fuckin tube? Yuk)
-endless supply of Kiwiberri (f*ck da rezt)
-a car that can hover over Colima (a car that can hover for that matter)

Well those are my superficial wishes at least.

Damn I need to pee now. Trying to stick to my resolution 11 and now ... oh shit.

I need a good movie...

To all my Korean lovemuffins: BE PROUD!

I hate the way that faggot announced her. Anyway, I'm so fuckin proud that a Korean won Ford's Supermodel of the World this year. It's THE biggest privilege for a new and upcoming model and sure enough, a Korean snatches up the prize. Man we have some beautiful ladies here in Korea. Remember Ms. Korea last year and now this? My goodness.

That FIERCE (I hate this word but it's appropriate) walk will get her anywhere in the industry.

Nunya

In my previous entry, I spelled "deodorant" incorrectly. I apologize.

I tend to get realllllly sad when I get into, per say, a TV series or a long novel and it finally ends. Though I did skip many middle seasons, I just ended watching Gilmore Girls and even I, the man-of-all-men John, almost cried.

I just remembered that "John" doesn't really fit my criteria. I've been over this MANY times but I really feel like a Ryan or something.

For my birthday, I want a camera and a sewing machine. They're having a sale at Joann's so I might stop buy. Eeeeekkk.

Liz and I had a lazzzy day at my house and watched ITLOW. My gosh what a scandalous movie! Now I need to clean up the mess. Oh no!!!

Tomorrow: Pancake breakfast 8-11 AM
Gym 12-2 PM
DCM 3-4 PM
Leisure reading!

MAN I love having no homework. The extra day off school helps tremendously as well.

Toodles.

Deoderant is annoying

I noticed that I like to alter my situations sometimes. Nowadays, I park on the other side of the street, try different hair products from time to time, intermitently sleep on the other side of the bed, change my usual routine at the gym, take a longer route to school, going to Coffee Bean instead of star$$, etc. I'm pretty sure it's my coping stage before I go to college. The baby bird is ready to leave the nest.

I hate how everything is maturing so fast. Seems like the second you finally adjust to a lifestyle, it begins to morph itself into another alien object. Thanks life.

And most importantly, deoderant is annoying.

It's amazing how one show can make your whole day

In response to the title, it's none other than Gilmore Girls.

Nothing beats endless fuckin fries! Nam sen??

Wellllll what's been on my mind?
Today Leslie, Christine, Liz, and I (having a blast may I add) were talking about how you think it's so gross when people act so arrogantly in public but when act the fool it's suddenly supposed to be acceptable to society. Sometimes I truly confuse myself.

BTW Pinkberry coffee is weeeeeeeirdddd.


Everything is so chilax after finals. Hopefully I'll be able to start on the huge stack of books that never stops growing. I'm currently reading my first one and it's quite enjoyable.

Now I'm just boring everyone. Blah and goodnight.

"It may be years until the day my dreams will match up with my pay"

I want to watch "Norma Rae" with a passion. Just needed to get that out. I hyperlinked that shiz so check out the reviews and whatnot. It's disappointing that I can't find it on ANY illegal steaming site. Booohooo.

YAY! Couture season has started! So far I've only seen half the works but I'm modestly impressed. Honestly, when I think couture, I think (like many others) of over-the-top Galliano that's so amusing to look at. The possibilities are endless (except maybe by the laws of nature). However, this season there seemed to be a lot of refined/accessorised ready-to-wear pieces floating down the runway. Chanel even dared to used boring black flats in a COUTURE show. ABSURD! Hopefully this doesn't mean that the near ready-to-wear collections won't be just a tshirt and jeans. OH LORD HELP THEIR JUICES FLOWWWW!!

In other words, I'm extremely grieved by Heath Ledger's death. Looks like he beat Britney to it. ;(

UPDATE: I just watched the Christian Dior collection, which usually signifies the couture look. Even this collection failed to deliver its true genius. I wish there was another collection like the origami collection!!

THE shoes of next season will be Balenciaga's reflective square platforms. I just KNOW it!


ENOUGH ABOUT FASHION. I'm probably boring my one and only audience. :)

Well I'm so carefree nowadays. Are these the symptoms to Senioritis of am I just being comfortable with my own skin (for once)? I would like to think the latter but it's hard to analyze it yourself with taking into consideration numerous references with an outside source.

Writing thank you cards are .... well, rewarding. I'm glad that I'm finally acknowledging people that built me and molded me into the splendiferous person that I am today. The only hard part is giving it to them.... sigh

Random cool site: www.whatshouldireadnext.com

tis all. Good luck for the remainder of the week everyone!!

I love the fact that only, like, one person reads this thing and the fact that I can make this title as long as I want! HA!

Hopefully I'm not getting back into my old, bad habits. OH boy.

I can't get enough of candles. I probably burned about 15 today. Geez calm down John.

So today was the UChicago interview today at the most awkward place in the world: Tea Station. G*d (had to censor it for my lil Christian lovemuffins) I hate the dreadful service there and guilty feeling like you should be able to speak in Mandarin to get any decent attention in that place. Well anyway.... I realized that in college, I DON'T want to be antisocial, I DON'T want to not be able to see the beautiful surrounding campus because I have to spend nine hours at a cramped desk analyzing graphs all day, and I certainly DON'T want to leave those I love the most. I DO want to make the best of my college experience, maybe party a bit (just a little) and volunteer a heck of a lot for the community, I DO want to be in the epicenter of inundating knowledge, and I DO want to meet and keep those I love. Chicago is definitely not a place for those who like to meet people once in a while and talk about their favorite hangout spot and the best pub in the city. I hate it. Considering my interviewer sounded like a plain bagel talking (no cream cheese may I add) it made me hate UChicago even more than I hated its high suicide rate and detestable Gothic architecture. OUCH! I wouldn't go if they accepted me at this point. Far shot but it's fun to dream ain't it?? :)

ASIDE FROM THE RANTING:

I don't like to workout with people. I always claim, "Let's workout together!" but what I'm implying is that I'm trying to squeeze you in to my busy schedule so I can see your precious face outside of school. Oh boy I hope no one reads this. But honestly, I love to workout by myself. No two people in this world have the exact same workout routine (refer to my previous post on individuality). So therefor (insert three dots in the alignment of a triangle) I would end up ditching you after our first five minutes because you'll probably want to keep lifting and I may want to work on my abs. Nam sen? It's okay if you don't. It took me a while to figure it out as well. Maybe it's part of UChicago's "liberal out of the box" way of thinking that's gotten to me. HELP ME JESUS!!

If no one has noticed, the italics are for inside jokes. Ignore them if you don't get it. You're not a retard, just not too close to me. :) I kid.

Man I love it when I get spontaneous thrives to read. Read 100 pages of Russo today. He may be my favorite author to date. Save this info for trivia.














Why does no one do those random questions at the end of the general info section of this. It's sooo interesting. I've probably answered, like, five questions just cause they were so oddball. See I'm too liberal for the east coast. Goodness.

10 10 10 10 10!!!

The beauty of faults

Every once in a while, people are reminded they are all different in one way or another. It's pretty amazing how so many minute details compose one single entity that not even clones or twins can turn out to share emotions. I feel special whenever I think of this, knowing that my actions are in no way more or less strange than any other person breathing the same (heavily polluted) air as I am.

I have some weird OCDs... When I get the time, I shall make those "5 Interesting Facts" videos on youtube. Betcha didn't know I even have a youtube account huh! :] Only one video though. Pretty pathetic. I must make some vlogs ASAP. More the reason to invest in a new digital camera!

Note to self (and to the rest of the world): Hang in there! We're only 17 and have our whole motha fuckin lives in front of us. Don't feel the urgency for miracles to happen when you've only lived 1/6 of your whole lifespan. Complain when you're 85.

Alright I haven't written here in a while.

Someone get me the "Carol didn't wear her goggles, now she doesn't need them" poster.

I just realized I have a serious problem. I want things that I ALREADY have. For example, I want ANOTHER Blackberry and another leather bag. The same ones too. Pretty pathetic.

Youtube is genius. I love the liberation of it!
