Listening to: Circus- Britney Spears <= omg first english music in AGES!
Random Thought of the Day: ... I probably should have done my homework :[

GUESS WHAT?!
I applied to be a writer of MakeUseOf :D I'm pretty excited, because it seems like they hire a lot of people, and I think writing for a Tech blog would be a pretty nice addition to my resume. That and I obsessively keep track of that stuff anyways, so it wouldn't even be a burden! ^__^ I'm really excited. WISH ME LUCK :D

With that said, I'm going to try to find some work freelancing as a writer. I'm not working this summer, so I've got to find SOME way to make a bit of cash. I think I can do it ><; It probably won't be a lot of money, but hey, its money for something I don't mind doing, so why not :)

Others:
I can now say " that person is Megan Fox" and "I came to school in an airplane" in japanese.
In case anyone is wondering, those two sentences are "あのひとはMegan Foxです" <= sorry dunno my kanji / katakana yet. "私は飛行機で学校にきました。" .. in hiragana that'd be "わたしはひこうきでがっこうにきました." ^__^ I like japanese.

I am also doing terribly in linear algebra.. but thats also cuz i'd rather be bored and browse random webpages than do homework. :[

Nancy

Listening to: Dynamite, A'ST1
Random Thought of the Day: Reading good authors makes me want to write (:

I stood on that dusty stage and began
shakily: "My name is Nancy.
The second page of my baby book reads:
Then she smiled, that sweet, unblemished
angel of ours.
until Growth took hostage of my body
and introduced me to the
cat callers and wolf whistlers of the world,
until there was nothing left save
shreds of burned feathers, matted to
the twisted knobs of my broken back.
Angel no longer, sweet--"

The woman in the front row stands,
poised unsteadily in fur and hooker heels
Touching, she applauds slowly and
takes a drag on her cigarette
the smoke obscures a mottled face, she
looks at me, lowers one tattooed eyelid
a ghoulish wink.
" They called me Nancy once too."

Listening to: So Hot- Wonder Girls
Random Thought of the Day: Sometimes I wonder whether... its true or not. but then I feel guilty for doubting.

the musk of skin
a handful of purple stars
waiting for your name to appear
impatient tapping
frustrated, the clock ticks down
scrolling through pictures of you and me
laughter, soft kisses
my cheek feels the warmth of your lips
why doesn't phone ring?
cold words, harsh words
misunderstandings seep beneath my skin
i worry too much, relax
he'll call, he'll call
remember the fireworks? the happy glow
what about those days before?
let one moment wash it away!
no, no.
I cannot fall slave to a second's romance
watching and waiting for it to appear
a small gift, or a dangling carrot
it keeps me still
why isnt it ringing?
shush... just believe.


the phone rings.

I stole this from Stina

3 comments

Stina did one, and I feel like procrastinating, cuz I’m exhausted and don’t want to learn anymore! so here it is..

a chronology of how my taste in guys has changed LOL

   Unfortunately, this boy did not grow up well :( I had the biggest crush on him in elementary school… but no longer [thank goodness, because he is no longer good looking =X ]

Jake Gyllenhaal … I guess when I was younger I liked more white people…

  Howie from the Backstreet Boys. Surprisingly , now that I think about it, my favorite backstreet boy was NOT nick carter. Go me!

 

 

 

  Chris Trousdale of Dream Street, circa 7th Grade?

Strangely enough, it was Jesse McCartney of DReam Street that ended up making it big, even though he was the baby [and one of the lesser noticed members] of Dream Street.

Its okay though. Chris and Jesse are the only ones that grew up well :)

 

and now prepare for the onslaught of asians…

   by FAR my FAVORITE japanese actor! I watched Hana Yori Dango not because of the plot, or because anyone said “omg its so cute”

but because Oguri Shun going “Ma-Ki-No” is SOOO CUTEEEEE *squee*

 

 

 

 

  Wu Chun – my favorite Taiwanese actor! The only reason I watched even 2 episodes of the awesomely crappy Taiwanese version of Hana Kimi is because of Wu Chun.

Interestingly, I only started liking him after george mentioned him to me.

 

 TThey dress awesomely. Every asian guy needs to dress like this, because it is just too awesome. Thank you Korean Pop culture.

  And my favorite member of my favorite band, U-Know Yunho from DBSK!

heehee.

watching Yunho dance makes me happy.

 

 

 

lolol i think my taste in guys is getting more and more… feminine. That and … I seem to gravitate largely to Asian guys. =) yay for embracing my culture? LOL

and notice that Yunho and Wu chun bear an interesting resemblance to my favorite boy of all :

Thursday- Chinese Final, CS Project Due, Superlatives
Friday – Physics Homework Due, Math Homework Due, Chinese Skit
Saturday – CS Final, NSU Banquet [if i dont finish CS early.. theres a possibility that the car to Banquet will leave without me D: ]
Monday – Physics Final

I still need to learn everything about Rotational motion for my physics final, Everything relating to vectors for Math, etcetcetc.

Did i mention that i almost lost all my chinese notes today? Lucky Jamie picked them up from 10th week dinner for me today.

.. here’s to midnight buddies. Who’s with me?! =(((
