geez, it's been, like, three months since I updated xanga. I've been sucked into the world of facebook (sorry, Brian, I'm already addicted lol), but I'm back!

Things I've done since last entry:

learned how to play mahjong, Hong Kong style; we have a wall of mahjong wins on the wall and I'm in the lead ^___^ V

Made a whole lot more friends ^^ I'm finally being social!

Watched 300. That movie kicks ass. Seriously, visual orgasm....so good O_O Them Spartans are damn sexy.

Got a new laptop. IBM Thinkpad T60. It's indestructible, my compy is...^_^

Bought JT's Futuresex/Lovesounds and Beyonce's B'Day ( I still refuse to download songs because I know I'm going to feel so guilty after)

Updated youtube playlists (it's been idle for a while because since youtube was acquired by google, they're going crazy with the copyright laws; had to update all of lists >_<)

Am failing math 11 (7.5/11 on first midterm, 7/15 on second midterm; I'm praying that he grades on a curve)

Am getting used to the idea of tab browsing, thanks to firefox ^__________^ Can't live without it now

That's all and this week's dead week; next week is finals and spring break!!! ^^ Can't wait. The weather is getting warmer and it feels really good.

Good luck on finals everyone!!

Interesting Thoughts:

I'm eating a grapple right now. I guess it's a "hybrid"; I don't know what else to call it. lol Basically, it looks like an apple but tastes like a grape and it's really sweet. ^_^

I had to read Beowulf (again) for History 12, but it wasn't so bad this time around...I actually liked it O_o

I finally joined an Asian club...APSU (Asian Pacific Student Union). I didn't know whether there was a Chinese student thingy or not, so I just joined them, instead. haha It turns out that there is is a CSA (Chinese Student Association), so I guess I better check it out sometime ^^;;

I learned how to do a derivative yesterday, my first taste of calculus. haha It's gonna suck because I hate graphing...and limits...

New quarter!! Actually, harder classes now...lol But really only because I have to take calculus. My English class doesn't even fulfull my english requirement but it does fulfill my U.S. studies so there's a break lol Actually, she teaches at Cal, too, so who knows? Someone out there is probably taking the same class as me. Professor Nanda for Asian-American Lit., anyone? I didn't want to take government again. Carroll scarred me for life in that class ^^;;

Hope everyone had a nice break (geez, it went by fast ).

Had my birthday over the break (Dec. 30). What's really sad is that my mom forgot it was my birthday. ^^;;

Current schedule

MWF history, english, math

TuTh Religion (AGAIN!! FOR ANOTHER FOUR YEARS!!! T_T)

Business 71, (leadership course) I have to write 5 page papers on the speakers...I bet their speech doesn't even cover three...>_<

Full load of courses: 18 units

Good luck to everyone and let's not all freeze in this weather we've been having. ^____^

Got the Pirates of the Caribbean 2 DVD!! ^_______^ I love this movie. Can't wait for the third one...^^

Been on youtube lately...I still love M's Girlfriend, but my current songs are:

Jang Ri In featuring Xiah Junsu- Timeless
Lee Soo Young- Grace

They're ballad-type songs. But I like them both a lot. ^^

Hope everyone is having a good break!! And not getting sick in this stupid weather...>_< (Yes, I know, Katherine. Carnegie Mellon has colder weather, but give a California girl a break :P)

To Ed (from the last entry): I "thank" Foothill, too, although I'm not sure what I'm thanking them for ^_^

Amazing pianist. Here's his version of Stan and Mockingbird, both by Eminem.

No sheet music, he plays by ear. Check out his profile. He has about 100 songs that's he's done, from Linkin Park to Enya. They're all piano renditions and he's played them all without sheet music.

SO MUCH STUFF TO DO!!!! Have to register for new classes, meet with advisors, and wade through tons of paperwork. Essays, midterms, projects...the last few weeks of the quarter suck haha ^_^

On the plus side, I get an entire week off for Thanksgiving lol V(^_^)V

I am currently in love with Minwoo's single "Girlfriend". Kinda old (was released in the summer) but I love love LOVE this song.

Recommend his performance as well as the MV
