Gong Xi Fa Cai

In my opinion it's not Gong Hay Fat Choy.
Afterall, Cantonese is just a local dialect. (no offense)
For me, it's Gong Xi Fa Cai.
So if any of you happen to be in Beijing or wherever on Chinese New Year, don't say Gong Hay Fat Choy.
Don't.
It's like telling an American "Happy July 4th" in Italian.
Awkward, much?

And kinda getting off topic, but APOLO SHOULD'VE GOTTEN GOLD!
-fumes-
Although it was a miracle the two Koreans crashed and took themselves out at the last minute...
BUT HE SHOULD'VE GOTTEN GOLD!
-sobs- This'll prolly be his last Olympics... (TT_TT)
Oh wells. I'll be looking forward to seeing JR Celski then.

When in doubt

When in doubt, write something.
Even if it does happen to be something like:

Sardines take years to expire.

or

My counselor is a poopy-face.

or

A 3 month old swimsuit is no good if it doesn't cover your butt.

or

I can't decide-- tai chi vs. chai tea.

or

I'm just going to stop listing examples now.

And because I'm currently in doubt, I write

Black cats and blueberry muffins are very smexy.

o by the by

o by the by
has anyone seen
little you-i
who stood on a green
hill and threw
his wish at blue

with a swoop and a dart
out flew his wish
(it dived like a fish
but it climbed like a dream)
throbbing like a heart
singing like a flame

blue it took my
far beyond far
and high beyond high
bluer it took your
but bluest it took our
away beyond where

what a wonderful thing
is the end of a string
(murmus little you-i
as the hill becomes nil)
and will somebody tell
me why people let go

UWAAA!!! I'M SORRY!

Sorries... It may seem like I forgot about you guys, but that's not true. (or is it?)
Anyways, many many things to ramble about.

1 The pool is my other home.

2 My swimsuit is currently purple. (Yay, Sheila!) 'Tis very purdy. I like it.

3 Shinshi Doumei Cross aka Gentlemen's Club Alliance (or whatever it was in English). You must read it.

4 I have awesome JPOP CDs at home. They are pwnsome even though they are from a century ago.

5 I am currently writing again. As for fanfics... -HIDES-

6 Claire and I made a pwnsome comic book about biology. (Is there any other awesome word that is synonymous with "pwnsome"?)

7 AND LASTLY, FINALS ARE OVER!!!
Wheeee! Let's celebrate!
I am guessing that my grades will be 93-97, which is sad. (This makes me an overachiever, right?) But there will be a curve. :3
I swear, if our curve is low because some frickin idiot told a bunch frickin idiots about the frickin tests we took I will murder them. (*_*) -DEATHSTARE-

A Cold and Sunny January Sunday

Ok, so Bloland assigned us this weird collage thing, and I'm thinking about collaging the pictures on Photoshop, and doing a bunch of cool effects with it.
But, come on.
It's such a stupid project.
And it's so not worth overachieving for.
So I just decided to print the pictures out and resorted to collaging it in that lame, average, and mediocre way that everyone will do it in.
Go with the majority.
Why not?
I'm about to print it, but my printer doesn't really print anything other than a couple meek green lines.
Then I try my other printer, but it doesn't print at all.
Great.

Which leads me to the fact that I just had to go outside by MAHSELF, walk to FedEx Kinko's by MAHSELF, pay for them to print it by MAHSELF, and walk home by MAHSELF.
-huff-
I'm walking the streets by MAHSELF with no one in sight in the mile radius.
It's fricking Sunday and it's fricking cold.
The entire time I'm thinking, "What the hell is a girl like me doing, walking around on empty streets on this cold and sunny Sunday?"
Then I ask mahself, "How did my mom convince me to do this?"
But despite all this crap, I enjoyed the little walk.
'Tis refreshing! C:

Whoever read the whole post...

You are a loser.

First post of the New Year

Hm...
Nothing much to say right now.
Just wanted to post my first post of the new year!

Yeah.
And also, I'm starting a new fanfic on Gakuen Alice, which I need help from.
Except a certain someone COUGHCOUGH Syd COUGHCOUGH hasn't read it yet/ is ignoring me/ hasn't finished reading it.
I don't know which one it is.
Because -ahem- she's not replying to my emails.
Even though I'm pretty sure she was on Facebook earlier...
-DEATHSTARE-
She's going to make me hunt her down when we get back to school.
She's making things resolve this way.
Tsk, tsk.

So yeah.
Syd, if you're reading this...
WATCH OUT.
Because I'm going to glomp-attack you any moment...

XD

Bringing the NEW YEAR!

Happy New Year's, everyone! <3
Yeah, it's not 2010 yet officially, but who cares.
So I hope everybody is ready to let this year go.
I, for one, am very happy to let go, because '09 was definitely not a walk in the park. Sure, it was a very relaxed year, but not much has come out it. (no offense)
I'm definitely looking forward to 2010.
It kicks off in February with the Winter Olympics (-squee- I can't wait!), our class trip, luncheon, graduation, high school...
These are just a few major events this year.
Not to mention I have many piano competitions and other things I want to attend this year.

Part of my New Year's resolutions is to actually try this year.
Personally, I don't think I've been a very good student this year.
I haven't really been paying attention in class, nor actually being my normal perfectionistic self, and I haven't really been trying my best.
My writing skillz have deterioriated, Claire's still better at me than math, Amy's taller than me, and so many more things I lack. (Yes, I am pretty competitive; deal with it.)
I really want to learn the Grieg concerto in A minor this year, and I hope to pass my piano exam.
I also hope to improve my writing skillz, add more words to my vocab, get better and faster at math, get taller, get faster at swimming...
Most of all, I wish to get some self-control.
Because I honestly lost mine one or two years ago.
Not kidding. I used to have some.
SERIOUSLY.
Obviously there's a lot more negativeness left in my system, but let's put that aside for now.

I went to the Japanese market place today, and I'm seeing more non-Japanese people over the years. (namely, Americans and Chinese people)
But what really amazes me is the fact that if you walk around the store, you will be able to catch the words "wasabi" and "teriyaki" in American accents.
I mean, wasabiwasabiwasabi.
Is that all they think about?
There's much more pwnsome Japanese food besides wasabi.
And teriyaki.
Ahem.
Also, I was so close to buying the Japanese magazine.
The one with Momo, Arisa, Shugo Chara...
GAH!
I'm so mad that my parents wouldn't let me buy one.
I'm also upset that my parents let me forget Japanese.
-sigh-

Let's not be Johnny Raincloud and rain down our your cheery New Year's spirit.

Happy New Year's everybody.
I hope that 2010 will be a year full of surprises, good luck, and good fortune.
Cheers.

-glugs down some champagne-
jk.
