 *emmo* now finally sick of renaissance painters. get me outta there says:

SmUaSsAqN... just finished an interview... got another on Friday! says:

These 10 days in SD were heaven. Although a dream place for lots of people, if you weren't there, California would mean nothing to me. I love you, my baby cat cat.

Felt like good old days when the seniority kicked in and u didnt give a damn about rules, and u always shocked me with ur erratic thinkin and dangerous spontaneity. then you left for college, and I still remember how I cried and cried in the back of the classroom, hid myself in the restroom, and still couldnt stop on the school bus. I still miss you like this. it's almost a miracle for anyone to have such a wonderful friend... someone who, not only clicks with you, but also guides you through life and becomes a part of it, sharing retarded moments and night rides with girl talks about life events and skin problems... you know you can count on her, with unshakable trust. you were there for me when no one else was; you showed me how terribly important it is for a girl to be brave, to to be real and to be right. And the metamorphosis of a girl.. I realized, for several times, that you are becoming more and more mature, perhaps as an inevitable result of the episodes of loveache. but you always stand. you always shine in glory. my sweetest damn lil thing.. the world has its every finest thing to offer you, and while there might be some ppl who do it the wrong way... i know you'd knock them dead. =)

remember I'm always always on ur side... I need to say this and really hear this out, thank you cat... thank you for all the time you stayed with me, all the makeup, shirts, twix you shared, all the deranged actions of pigging out at buffets, all the long lost car rides to nowhere, and karaoke double nights that killed my voice eventually... you're the craziest and you're the best. untill I see you again, let's both be good, ok? sweet frenz 4ever...

holy wowzers tokyo, suki suki <3

first off, I got tagged by lovely Erica with this new xanga trend: a list of 5 bad habits. I don't feel like advertising my nose-picking habit, so I'm gonna make up something obviously stupid n untrue like I secretly collect body parts.. yah right. here I go.

(1) I space out.

(2) There's a part of my brain that forcibly works in bad Japanese and it occasionally emerges inappropriately. In french class I responded not with "oui" but "haii~" and instead of "comment vous vous appellez" I said "onamae wa?"

(3) In the morning I think: this is a good day. I will start my diet and this sincere thought goes on... till lunch time.

(4) I always play with my hair, I can't stop it and before I know it I'm playing with my hair again. If I have no hair I won't  die of shame, but I will still die because I then have nothing to pull on and it just feels whacky.

(5) I space out a lot.

Now I tag baby cousin Jen, Mish, Kawin, ShiaoMa, Mike. Well I know what lil Mike is gonna put down as the first one, "Ogling hot cali asian girls day and night". Come up with something with some depth, okie mikey dokie?

Photoz from JaPaN. The fobbiest entry *ever*. (notice that the sentence on my green shirt doesn't make sense?) There's a lot of me, bcuz the tour only consisted of me, my dad, my mom, me, my mom. So by the end of the entry y'all probably will get sick of *me*. Hehe here we go

++++++++++ EDIT Aug.11 ++++++++++

umm luxy. yah luxy. ladyz nyt. riiiiight.

smelling pplz sweat, gettin knocked off stairs by fatasses(for real), and seeing a guy danced lyk he was commanding traffic.. omfg that was hilarious i coudlnt stop imitating him. I was being rather mean, pointint at him to my friend "hey! check out that TRAFFIC POLICE? hell yah! let's do that dance!" and a girl in a short zebra dress dancing shaking in the half cage thingy like she's being electrocuted.. And guys, guys who rock/shake/tremble/havin a spasm like they're skiing, or a "row row row your boat" song would pretty much go along with the scene..oh and stupid wai guo ren tryin to pik girls up lyk damn they're the fishgod! 

why am I making fun? Is it really time for me to retire and play some old pplz sports lyk golf or just sit there making divine tea for 6 hours..

i'm being offensive, but guess what, it was my birthday, i had the right to be a birthday bitch.

okay. the club was fine. the music was totali my type. just it was crowded (with girls half my weight but doubled my boobs) and i was in a bad mood.... damn i got this quarter-life-minus-five crisis.. (sumbody help me with my english.)

If I could command time. At which point would I make it stop?

I wish I could stay forever in some moment... I wish they would last forever. I wish we could be like that forever.

A heart is touched several times, but how long could the true memories last?

I wanted to stay by your side but I knew clearly that this is a part of the dream that will not come true. I'm grateful, however, for what I had already. Last time I probably said the same damn thing. Who was I trying to fool, I did not feel that was enough. I didn't want it to end.

So many thoughts but so little do I have the right to put them in words for you. Maybe this is already the best for us, although deep down I know I want more than this.. Why do I always have to be ridiculously considerate.. Why can't I be immature and selfish for just a little bit.. If I could go back I might have done things differently. I might have listened to what my heart was crying out loud instead of suffocating it because I was a coward, because I didn't want to bear the possible consequences. I lost my chance and now it's a life without you.

Don't wanna let you go...
