| School and work. |
[23 Mar 2007|10:35pm] |
School was pretty much the same. Boring and useless. I barely had any classes because of the field trip so there were subs all over. Crystal and I gave Annabel her pwnzor cupcakes. I wonder how purple neon icing would've looked.
Work was okay. Phillip is mean. He hit my forehead with a sensor, LOL? It hurt, that loser. I figured I didn't get the transfer at Ruehl since I didn't get a call but that's okay. I like my staff at Hollister. I made $60 on my recent paycheck for 2 weeks worth. I used to make $60 a day back in SF. -_-

| タキシード仮面 ~!! ♥♥♥ |
[17 Mar 2007|09:55pm] |
Watching 美少女戦士セーラームーン as you're older makes you appreciate the show even more and it doesn't feel like a kid's show anymore. I love タキシード仮面 ;] LOLOL Everytime I hear the dubbed voices, it makes me cringe. I really like the original Japanese series since it explains more and doesn't leave anything good out! Like for example, クイン・ベリル kidnapped タキシード仮面 just because she realized he was hot. I'm on episode 50 so I'm 3/4 away.
Other than that, my mom and aunt came back from Hong Kong today. We didn't do much but go out to eat for lunch. My dad made me back out of our driveway using my mom's car. It's not too hard when there's no stupid car parked near the red zone behind me. My new cellphone is pretty awesome. I was playing around with it the whole day adding new themes and stuff to it. Haha, I made a タキシード仮面 theme.

| Already?? |
[14 Mar 2007|08:02pm] |
I can't believe it's already the middle of March! Time sure goes by fast but that's okay because I can't wait until summer and graduation. School has been pretty easy, I guess. Everything goes by so fast, given that I only have 3 academic classes this semester. But other than that, school is pretty much easy.
Lately, I've been watching 美少女戦士セーラームーン. I've never watched the full 200 episodes, only up to 130 since that was all that DiC released for America. I'm watching the original Japanese version which is way better. I found out that there were 6 episodes that DiC never released and they edited alot of the episodes! So yes, I'm having fun watching it.
I was able to land a job interview tomorrow for the International Spy Shop that just opened at Metreon. It seems like a pretty cool place to work at and I hope I get this job. I didn't get the job at Banana Republic but that's okay. I'm still working for Hollister but it's so boring. I just remembered I have work this Friday. Hate it.

| Neglection? :( |
[09 Mar 2007|08:25pm] |
I don't mean to neglect my journal. I really want to start writing in this more like how I did in the past with all my other journals. Anyway, I just finished watching 쾌걸 춘향 and I loved it so much. It was definitely long but really worth it. I love 재희 ♥! I want to watch 마이걸 but after watching the first 20 minutes of it, I felt so bored, but everyone said it's really good. Almost half the cast from 쾌걸 춘향 is in 마이걸! That's so awesome.
Besides my lovely korean dramas, nothing else is new. School is such a drag that I want to end it now. I'm still on a search for another job since I'm only working once a week at Hollister and sometimes none. I went to Tapioca Express at Millbrae since I asked Valentino to help me hook it up. I filled out an app but the manager just took it when I wasn't even finished? Haha, we'll see what happens with that.

| Update on life? |
[26 Feb 2007|08:58pm] |
I got the job at Hollister! I was really happy because Hollister is definitely something good to put on future resumes and they do job transfers so when I go to Toronto, I can switch to their Hollister at Eaton Centre. I pick up my schedule for next week this Thursday. I can't wait to start working. The staff seem like the most awesome laid-back people ever.
So I'm going on a new diet. No rice and bread, only wheat bread. I've already eliminated fast food and soda since last year September but I want to try the no rice and bread. Kind of hard on the rice part since I'm Asian and all, haha. But I believe I can do it! Day 1 and already no rice or bread. Strictly fruits, vegetables, tofu, and other wonderful low carb stuff. I can't wait till summer.

| Update. |
[17 Feb 2007|10:11pm] |
I got my ears pierced today, for the first time too. It wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. The pain really did feel like a quick pinch. But I definitely was freaking out for awhile. :( The lady gave me a lollipop in the end, haha. I also quit Nina's and gave them my two weeks notice. Screw them, I hate working there so much. They're making me work 5 days a week when I have school and not letting me have any say in it! Not to mention already paying me under minimum wage. I have an interview for Hollister this Tuesday so I hope that goes well.
Tomorrow is Chinese New Years and 6 months with babe but I have work. From open to close too because the stupid owner and her daughter went to LA and Palm Springs, Las Vegas. Whatever, I'm almost done with this nightmare. First week of March is my last day, thank God.

|
| Hate work. |
[13 Feb 2007|11:22pm] |
So work is a total bitch. I'm already getting paid under minimum wage and they still have the nerve to take taxes from me even though I filed for exempt? Wtf. I swear I hate working in Daly City. I already applied to the Juma Ventures so I hope to get a response soon. I should get a response though since it's a youth group thing that just so happens to be a job. So I hope I get a call or letter soon.
Sky called me during my lunch to tell me he got my card and to say thank you. It was really sweet and it made me feel happy. I seriously didn't expect a call so it was a nice surprise. Hearing his voice made me realize how I really do miss him. I mean, I already knew I missed him. But hearing his voice just made this distance even harder. I want it to be June 9th right now. That's my moving date to Toronto.

| Staring out at the rain with a heavy heart. <3 |
[07 Feb 2007|07:35pm] |
It's raining. My field study project is ruined due to the fact that mother earth water tampered with it. Oh well, I'll probably be able to get away with it. I didn't go to school today because I didn't need to. I was called to go to work today to fill in for Roseanne who called in sick but decided not to. I've been sitting at home all day. I wish I could drive. I need to start this weekend.
I really want a DS lite just so I could play Cooking Mama. I'm kind of debating over a DS lite or a Wii. Well, I have a higher chance of getting a DS lite for a very decent price but when Cooking Mama comes out for Wii I'll cry because I want to play it on Wii so bad. But then again, I don't mind having a portable gaming system that I can carry.
I also need a new cellphone. I hate the one I have now. When I flip it closed, the power inside is still somehow turned on so it drains my battery really fast and I always have to recharge it. I have a phone in mind but I'm going to wait a few paychecks later to get it since I just got this phone.

| I wish I could update this more. |

So school has really been an absolute breeze lately. I barely get any work anymore which is a good thing. Work has been okay. Still pretty boring but atleast I get the best employee discounts ever. I haven't been going to drum corps practices but I don't really need to. I don't know if I should do the CNY parade this year. It'll be my last but it definitely is tiring. Deadlines and colleges suck. What else is new? I'm starting my driving lesson tomorrow. I really want my paycheck from work because my account is crying. Guess that's all for now.

| Quick update on how my classes went. |
[29 Jan 2007|11:07pm] |
SWIMMING: I haven't stepped into the gym since sophomore year which is pretty much two years ago. It seems like this is going to be a pretty easy class since it's a class meant for people who don't really know how to swim. I'm just taking it for credit, exercise, and to wake me up in the mornings.
AMER DEMOC: Fisher seems like a really awesome person. I can sense the American Democracy version of Edelman, haha. Almost half of Edelmen's class is in this class. We didn't do much but play dumb ice breakers. I hate playing those games. Can't we find a better thing to do to pass the time? :(
AMER LIT1: I have Fuller again and it's the same old jokes. When she was talking about people not cutting her class she kept looking at me. Shrug, oh well. I took her as my English teacher two years ago. None the less, her class is usually fun with no homework and barely any work to do.
APES: Same old stuff since it's the same teacher. I sit with Kenneth and Jacky at my table. But I noticed until AP exam in May, we're going to be doing FRQs every Friday! I hate those. Atleast we get full credit even though we BS it most of the time.
TA ATTENDANCE OFFICE: This is easy and lame and I get out early half the time.
LIBRARY TRAINING: ... Most boring thing to do ever. I'm the only one working at the library since this guy named Kalvin didn't show up. I hope he does tomorrow so I can have someone to talk to, LOL.
Other than that, this is going to be one easy breezy last semester at Lowell. :)

| Job + permit. |
[27 Jan 2007|12:18am] |
I never thought retail would be super boring. I don't mind it too much though. I'd probably like it better if I was handling the cash register. I'm still doing training so all I've been doing is helping customers at the fitting room, folding and hanging clothes, and maing new clothes. Nina's gets new clothes like every freaking week. Just when you think you memorized the layout of the store and where everything is, it changes within a few days. Bleh, not even, it changes within an hour! I thought I was going crazy when I tried to put a shirt back on the rack when I knew I put the same shirt back on the same rack less than an hour ago. I like the people though and everyone's really nice. There's so many clothes I want to buy though. :P
I PASSED MY PERMIT TEST! With 6 wrong, haha. Not too bad for studying the night before. They changed the number of errors you could make from 8 to 6 so I was pretty lucky. Yay, I get to drive now. I was able to get a cheap driving instructor who is basically Phoung's dad. I'll have to commute to Fremont but that's okay. Maybe later on in the lessons, I'll be able to drive back home on the freeway.

|
| OMG! I GOT A JEE-ARB! |
[20 Jan 2007|11:54pm] |
I got a job! I actually consider myself pretty lucky and being there at the right time too. I'm now a sales associate at Nina's at Serramonte! The minimum wage is a bit lower than SF but I don't care. I can now gain retail experience and my boss and most of my staff is Korean. I pretty much got it because I was Asian, which amuses me since I was hired on the spot. I start training next Tuesday.
Sharon told me Saul said "good" when she said I couldn't come down to pick up my paycheck? Lmao, that illegal Mexican ass. He's probably the one that told my ex-boss the lie. Whatever, Coldstone is really lame. They have stupid people who kiss so much fucking ass like Betty. I know you read this Betty. Just wanted to let you know. :)

| 1 final down. |
[17 Jan 2007|08:07am] |
Just finished taking my English final which was insanely hard. Thank God that class is basically over. All I have left to do is draw up that campaign poster for my hero president and I'm done. Only one day left until the semester is sort of over. Then it's self-scheduling, finals, then I take my permit test! I want to start driving now so I can go home whenever I want and it'd take only 15 minutes rather than one hour.
My interview yesterday at Starbucks was pretty good. The questions were easy since they were all related to work and I used alot of incidents with Coldstone. They said they'd get me a second interview in about a week so I'm waiting for a call from them. I hope I get the job though since pay starts around $10 per hour and that's pretty good. Even though our minimum wage is already around $9.25. I want the job dammit.
I want a laptop, my own digital camera, and my own white toyota celica GT starting from the models of 2001. Yes, I'm a greedy bitch, LOL. Hopefully I can get the laptop around March when I get accepted into university and ask my parents to get it for me as a graduation present. The camera I can get on my own if I can score the freaking job. My own car? That'll have to wait. After my permit/license, I'm going to take my mom's car. I can get $2500 for it though.

[15 Jan 2007|02:05pm] |
No updates on finding a new job. I applied to Hollister and Abercrombie & Fitch but I have to wait for a call from them within 30 days. There's a job fair for Starbucks tomorrow downtown so I'll head over to that one. I'm actually more set on getting the Starbucks job since that's pretty easy, although I rather get a retail job. At this point, I just want a job.
The semester is almost over and I'm happy. Finals week next week. I still haven't gotten any poster board for my English project. I hope they have something at the Book-2-Book center that I can get. Other than that, after this semester is over, the next one is going to be a breeze. I'm 4th pick in the arena so I'm pretty sure my schedule is going to look like this.
SPRING SEMESTER 2007
1/2 - Swimming : DOHERTY
4/5 - American Democracy : FISHER
6/7 - American Lit 1 : FULLER
8/9/10 - AP Environ Sci : MELVIN
14/15 - Library Training : GUITRON
16/17 - Teacher Assistant : TALIAN
19/20 - Piano 2 : WAGNER (?)
Lately I've been playing Warcraft 3, mostly DOTA maps. I haven't played wc3 since middle school and I never touched a DOTA map. There are so many fucking bitches on wc3 that it's not even funny. It's just a game, go get laid or something. It pisses me off when they cry so hard when they die.

| hiatus for now. |
[08 Jan 2007|09:36pm] |
So I've abandoned my poor little journal lately due to stressful times. I am now jobless. Fuck Coldstone. They can go to fucking hell. Worked my ass off since September working long fucking hours until 11pm on school nights and taking everyone's shift so they could go on vacation just to get insulted and kicked off? Whatever. They call all rot in hell.
I'm gonna go find another job. My boss also sent in a bad evaluation to my business teacher. She can honestly go jump off a fucking cliff. I'm going to burn that fucking teddy bear she got me for Christmas.
What pisses me off the most is not getting fired but the fact that she had the nerve to tell me that I'm not a good worker, I slack off, I "chitter chatter" alot, I don't do what I'm told, I roll my eyes at my shift leaders, etc. If this wasn't on the phone, I would've fucking slapped her out of a sheer reaction.
Off to find a new job for me. I need a job to graduate. On hiatus for awhile.

| hmm. |
[03 Jan 2007|09:47am] |
I thought I would keep one of my resolutions which was to not skip any more classes for the whole year but since I'm in the library rather than Economic class, guess that's over. The class is such a joke though that I could be doing something better with my time rather than watching boring old movies. I hate school, I can't wait until this semester is over. I have quite a bit of work to do tonight which makes me sad. :(
I applied to Melt Gelato at SFSC last night and the application was really long. I hope I get a call back because I really want to quit Coldstone. I want to work in retail but there aren't that many stores hiring. Right now, I'm aiming for Melt Gelato since the hours are good and it's way closer than the wharf.

| BOOOO. :( |
[01 Jan 2007|02:30pm] |
i'm back from toronto but i don't want to be! i want to be back there right now. the trip was definitely not what i had thought it'd be and that goes both good and bad, but overall it was still a great trip. hence i shall recap the entire two weeks. both good and bad.
12/15 & 12/16: after my family delayed birthday dinner, picked up teresa and went to the airport. our plane left in time and arrived in boston around 6:30am the next morning. we had a one hour layover so we wandered around the airport. we caught our next plane and arrived in toronto around 9:30am. met up with rorec and then with crystal but found out they had left her luggage at the chicago airport! went to sq1 to meet up with francis to get info about our living situation. he kept telling us he'd talk it with us later so we ended up wandering around the mall awhile. we started to get tired so we went over to anders' house to chill. his house is BIG! O_O after having dinner at his house, went back to sq1 to meet up with francis again. turns out we had no place to stay and it was already 11pm. sky came later on and they both tried to help us. we ended up staying in a motel for the night, all except francis. i didn't sleep at all though.
12/17: anders and rorec picked us up from the motel and we went to tim hortons for breakfast. then dropped sky off at islington station and went back to anders house. we ended up living in anders' house for the entire trip thanks to his awesome mom. we stayed until they delivered crystal's luggage. we went to p-mall afterwards and met up with sky, lu, and sang for dinner. ate at a pho restaurant which was pretty bad. then we went to play pool at this really nice chinese place that played the entire jay chou cd, haha. after pool, went back to anders' house where we all chilled for a bit. sky, lu, and sang left while the rest of us went to sleep. i didn't sleep again though.
12/18: 4 month anniversary. :) went to eaton centre with teresa and crystal while rorec and anders went to meet up with jessie. we shopped a bit then wandered around downtown. went to this super cool store where i got my angry little girls tote bag. after wandering around, bussed it to my cousin's place where we ate a bit and watched tv. anders picked us up later on and we went back to his house. lu calls me and asks if i want to go out later on that night with sky and sang. i agree and me and teresa left with them. we were gonna eat but since it was already midnight, lot of places were closed. then we went on a hunt for cheap gas, haha. after finding cheap gas, we went to a karaoke bar. haha it was fun. but after lu drove us back home, me and teresa were locked outside since anders fell asleep early and no one was picking up their cell. -__- we camped out at tim hortons for about 5 hours, from 2am to 7am until crystal finally picked up her cell. first time for everything, haha.
12/19: i only got 3 hours of sleep after not really sleeping for the past 3 days since sky calls around 10am. i talked to him for awhile. we all ended up staying at home since me and teresa were pretty damn tired from being locked out. we all went out to FMP for dinner though. i had some issues going on with sky so it was pretty rough for the night. in the end, everything was okay.
12/20: rorec was going back to rochester in the morning so i caught a ride with him and he dropped me off at lawrence station. took it to eaton centre and met up with sky. we wandered around downtown and stuff, then headed to chinatown. their chinatown is AWESOME! it's so big and wide and the centres are cool too like dragon city and CTC. had lunch at a chinese restaurant called gold stone. it was the first time i had real food since my trip started. we shopped around some more then took subway to scarborough town centre. then anders picked us up and we went back to his place and watched a movie. zombie baby, LOL.
12/21: i think we stayed home all day and just played games like naruto and bleach. it was raining so didn't really go anywhere except to the plaza to get some food. i froze half to death in the rain for not wearing a proper jacket therefore i got the flu. nothing else happened on this day.
12/22: stayed home once again. we all started to slowly kill ourselves.. haha, kidding. but it was extremely boring. but yes, this day was spent couped up in the house again playing naruto, bleach, and final fantasy XII.
12/23: stayed home yet again playing naruto and bleach. T_T i called francis up to see if we would be able to stay at his place for the 2nd week since his parents were leaving but he said they weren't and we didn't want to trouble anders' family anymore with staying another week. it ended up very chaotic in the end and i didn't sleep too well.
12/24: christmas eve. definitely didn't feel like it. crystal left for SF early in the morning so me and teresa didn't see her off. lu picked up sky in the afternoon and later on at night, anders' family took us out to korean bbq.
12/25: went out with anders and teresa early in the morning to figure out bus routes which we did successfully! i met up with sky at spadina station and we went to chinatown. everything was opened even for christmas day lol then we walked all the way to eaton centre to warm up. some stuff was open since they were getting ready for boxing day. waited for lu to call since we were going to have dinner with him to celebrate his birthday. he never called us and we got tired of waiting so went back to anders' place.
12/26: boxing day! went to FMP and bought the movie 'pulse' for $1, haha. then went to scarborough town centre for their sales. it was crazy freakin' pack. this day wasn't so good since problems started to occur with the boyfriend and i. ended up pretty bad. going back home, we were stuck in anders' car for awhile. went home, resolved some stuff with the boyfriend.
12/27: IT SNOWED! O_O <3 met up with sky at the lansdowne station. went to dufferin mall and just wandered around. then we headed back to anders' place to watch some movies like fearless. later on in the night, watched fearless and the promise with anders and teresa. that was pretty much it.
12/28: hmm, can't remember what happened. i think we stayed home again.
12/29: later in the afternoon, sky and i went to pacific mall because we were bored. we were going to go to woodbine mall but that was pretty freakin' far. it seemed so cool though with their fantasy fair. so at p-mall we just bought random things and shopped around. grabbed some lunch and walked around some more. bought more bootleg dvds like borat, the omen, casino royale, are you scared?, saw III, and the holiday. watched half of them like borat which was pretty much beyond stupid, roflmfao. "your shirt is black.. NOT" hahaha.
12/30: aww, last day in toronto. it snowed again! i made a mini snowman which was awesome. sky and teresa had their mini snowball fight. anders tried to move the earth aka his frozen pool, haha. then later on, sky and them ruined my snowman by adding a penis and a walnut hat, LOL. stayed home for the afternoon with sky and anders' brother while anders and teresa went out. played more games. anders' parents then brought us all out for dinner.
12/31: left for toronto early. :( said our goodbyes which was sad. BUT, our stupid plane was delayed for over an hour so me and teresa were stuck sitting inside the plane, with no room to move. -__- still got home on time though.
i miss toronto so much right now. yeah, it's mostly for sky since i got to spend way more time with him than in the summer. i also want to go to woodbine mall! and still have to check out york university campus and your UofT better with dennis. i'm planning to go back during spring break since that's when i'll know which university i'll be going to. i miss sky so much. i took his blanket, hahaha. :)

| extremely tired. |
[12 Dec 2006|12:13pm] |
i know i should be studying for my math test which is in about two hours instead of typing this but i can't help but not do it. i've skipped class for the last three days because i know i'm not ready for it. i haven't opened the bloody book in over two weeks. i missed my ap environ class just to do the homework which i'm half done. i don't want to keep skipping math but i won't rest until the stupid test is over. i hate school, i want to just sleep.
so canada is just three days away and i'm excited. i can't wait to get away from the city once again and have a great time. even though the living situation is kind of effy right now, i'm still looking forward to it. one thing i'm looking forward to is shopping and spending time with the lover and play in snow! haha i want to make a snowman.
i feel super hungry now so i'm going to end it here. going out to lunch with pizzaface aka teresa. it's raining like crazy here but thankfully it stopped. just hope it doesn't rain too hard this friday or it'll delay the plane.

i'm beginning to hate work. that stupid tandeki guy can go jump off a cliff and die. fallon also changed all our hours due to the lack of people coming in the winter time for ice cream. yeah, no shit sherlock. it doesn't take a brain surgeon to know that you won't be getting business in the winter time.
anyway i am in super desperate need of the vacation. thank God i'm leaving for toronto this friday. my parents are being bitchy once again about college and in my head the only words running are 'fuck you'. i also have homework that i've been neglecting for so long.
- create 2 epitets for english.
- seriously catch up on math homework.
- study for math test tomorrow.
- read more of the iliad

| 17th birthday? |
[04 Dec 2006|10:49pm] |
so today is my birthday and it feels like any other day. i know that probably sounded completely childish of me to say but i don't mean it like that. i was kind of thinking about it all day and it kind of saddened me that i didn't have anything planned out. maybe it's because my actual birthday plans aren't going to be in motion until the 15th of this month.
but i definitely want to thank all who greeted me a happy birthday, especially people like marvin and linda who i haven't seen in the longest. also thanks to crystal for that brilliant macy's giftcard. another day older, another day wiser. i'll get used to it i suppose.
i went to the mandatory session at work after school. stayed there for only half the time since my mother came and started to be annoying. it doesn't matter, i don't really care. we went out for pho but i was kind of in the pissy mood. lately my mom and i haven't been getting along. only ten days left.
