gravity gets things done.

Friday, January 9th, 2004

i’m listening to… “gravity gets things done” by the pale [rock], “angel of music” from phantom of the opera [musical?!], “the district sleeps alone” by the postal service [?], “hikari” by utada hikaru [japanese].
i’m feeling… rather good, actually.

4:10 am — man… if ever you have no drama in your life, make some up! at least, that seems to be the case with me… i give myself more stress than i need, cause i always imagine that things will be more stressful than they are or won’t work out like i want them to… right now my stressful decision that requires virtually no thought to most people is: “should i go to china and taiwan over spring break or stay at home with no parents?” it’s such a stupid.

just got back from playing some double dash (the new mariokart) and puzzlefighter… wOot… went over to the chol, seungbum, josh apartment for cynthia’s sort-of-birthday-but-not-really-birthday celebration. took two shots… i’m sorry, but captain whatever-the-fuck’s spiced rum is fucking disgusting, although i was the only person who thought this way… anyway, two shots did nothing, and it was just a waste of liver, what a waste. and seungbum farted in my face. what a slut.

didn’t go to class today because i had a stomachache (although i don’t really think that warranted not going to class)… just sort of lounged around at home and studied a little polisci shit (there’s so much reading for polisci… it’s crazy, seriously…) dreaded going to work after that, but it was actually rather great… did a different project with an uber amusing co-worker tim, and damn, i don’t know why, but my boss flatters me way too much heh… -__-” not complaining, just odd… but yeah, we’re looking to hire someone full-time for like a month or so… have to know html… so if you’re interested, hit me up, cause it would be cool working with a buddeh. although i doubt anyone would be able to work full-time…

managed to bum a ride offa tim, and then me, hsu-ken, lewis, and eva went to eat at the himalayan sherpa restaurant… LOL! i’ve been wanting to eat there for so long… we busted out these coupons and stuff… BUT IT WAS SO EXPENSIVE… probably just cause i’m a cheapass… although i ended up paying less than everyone else cause i only had $10 flat -__-” oOps. i THOUGHT it’d be enough, shiet. but yeah, the food was alright, but the portions were tiny… :/ oh well. shoulda gone to cedar’s instead so i could drool over the most gorgeous skater guy waiter ever… damn, he’s amazing. :| rarely do i remember what a guy looks like outside of a rave, but THIS GUY… wOo!!!!

after dinner we came back to our place and watched this cantonese movie called “the black prince”, although lewis bounced early… and then i made hsu-ken drop me off like 10 feet away to chojoseung’s. :X it seems so much further walking, but when you drive there, it’s like ridiculously close… haha i’m so lazy. :/

brah!

Thursday, January 8th, 2004

i’m listening to… “parler tout bas” by alizee [french], “pork and beef” by the coup [hip-hop], “life goes on” by 2pac [rap].
i’m feeling… blistery feet! but that’s not a big deal…

10:54 pm — man just spent hours and hours at abc cafe in chinatown eating dinner because… shit, i don’t even know why… it was just the longest dinner ever, but it was pretty funny… heard a lot of stories about hojo that were just hilarious. ^^

but yeah, it was a goodbye dinner for sebastian because he’s transferring to wsu tomorrow… and he’s leaving! and so… yeah! but yeah, so much for studying tonight, bah.

was supposed to go to work today, but i wore these new shoes that had really bad cushioning (aka, no cushioning)… so i got all these blisters on my feet now and i didn’t feel like walking two miles with blistered feet, so no work for me today. X: i love my job, shit… i call in sick so much, and i STILL HAVE MY JOB ^__^ hwa hwa hwa… it’s awesome shit. :X

slush.

Wednesday, January 7th, 2004

i’m listening to… “lithium” by nirvana [rock], “infected” by barthezz [trance].
i’m feeling… alright.

10:54 pm — after the snow comes the pain… slushy heaven today >< it sucked to walk around anywhere, because all the snow was half-melted, resulting in slushy snow and puddles everywhere :|

went “snowboarding” with anthony, but that went to hell. got up there and the pass was closed… so instead we went to walk around some shopping place in redmond and then went to eat dinner @ some korean place on aurora… i forget the name :X and yeah, the lady thought i was korean the whole time because of my minimal korean speaking skills, or lack thereof… more like listening skills, and i still needed her to repeat every other line, lol. sadddd.

snow.

Tuesday, January 6th, 2004

i’m listening to… “everything” by lifehouse [alternative], “sleepers” by dj dara [drum’n'bass], “plimsoul” by dieselboy [drum’n'bass], “perfect” by stabbing westward [metal].
i’m feeling… alright.

9:13 pm — it’s weird… the transition between 2003 and 2004 has been crzy easy for me… usually i write the previous year for the whole new month, but this year, i actually wrote 2004 during december 2003 and it’s not even a conscious thought to write 2004 on everything… very odd. :| perhaps! this is the start of a new beginning! (roight!)

well, woke up @ 9:30 this morning with half-assed thoughts of going to school, and the first thing that was on my mind was “is it snowing?!” and it twas… snow everywhere… it was craaazy :D like six inches, or something!! so, i was supposed to meet this guy @ 10:15 so i could sell him a book, but being that it was already 9:30 and it takes a half hour to walk to campus (without the busses running and all), i e-mailed him, and luckily he replied… and so i didn’t think i’d go to campus and figured i would just “chillax”…

but then lewis insisted i go to campus with him… on the way there, he made me try using the garbage bag to slide down this hill, but i have never gone sledding in my life, so i didn’t really know how to steer and ran into a metal railing. kind of hurt. add that to my bruised knee…! yay.

so we rounded up folks (hsu-han, eddie, and then min-ho…) and we went sledding. all classes after 10:30 were cancelled anyway… a lot of other classes were cancelled as well… pretty tight, but uwash @ seattle was the only campus open (tacoma and bothell were both closed, and so were seattle high schools and below)… so it should have been closed to begin with.

anyway, there were seriously just people sledding everywhere… and min-ho talked to some girls in the elevator and they said they used those plastic dinner trays from the cafeteria to sled with, and so we decided to give it a try… and there were a couple of big hills that were closed off to cars, but they still didn’t work that well… people were snowboarding down them and shit, and i wanted to do that too, but it looked like more work than it was worth =P the hill wasn’t all that steep either. :| anyway, so eddeh said he knew of a better hill, and we went there, and it was perfect… it was this really narrow walkway, with bushes on one side and a gate on the other side, but it was steeper than all the other inclines ^__^ we even made a jump at the bottom and stuff… it was pretty sweet… got to be really icy after we got all the powder worn down (it was really hard to even make snowballs, because the snow was so powdery)… and this old man almost slipped and fell, but he caught himself. T__T that’s so sad.

we took some pretty friggin sweet pictures too… in one, lewis was doing a “haduken” with a snowball… damn, it was sweet. ^__^ and the other pic was of hsu-han buried in the snow with snowboobies. ^^ we also did a 3-person luge on dinner trays, and it was really rather successful… it was difficult to stay on target with that little narrow walkway, but with three people, it was rather easy. woosa.

at night, went to eat dinner @ sakura’s with the scm folk… and started playing arond with my sewing machine… and yadda yadda neh!

and i started growing me seamonkeys! yay, thanks to pwn^ ~ ^^

bugger!

Saturday, January 3rd, 2004

i’m listening to… nothing. my brother’s playing SSX.
i’m feeling… okay, but a little bit of stomach not-good-feeling-ness…

conversation of the day (actually, an old one… ah, yes, miscommunication…!)
“so the gas station wouldn’t let us use their restroom, so we all had to pee in a bush.”
“yeah, sometimes if you have a big ass, they don’t let you use the restroom.”
“what? like i’m going to overflow the toilet or something?”
(it’s supposed to be, “yeah, sometimes if you don’t buy gas, they don’t let you use the restroom.”)

1:36 am — man, i still don’t have a ride back from the airport tomorrow *cries a river.

so today i went to san francisco with family and got a pair of pants, and there were these makeup sets that were 50% off, so we bought like five of them… i don’t really know why, but they were really really worth it… all this nail stuff and lipstick stuff and crap and lotion and blah, and only like $10 for the whole set or something :|

came home and met up with tomiko, claire, dahye (who i had to guilt-trip into hanging out with me :P), agnes, and phil [wu], and we went to oakland to eat soondooboo and go karaoke. i think all that korean food = indigestion (whatever that is), cause i feel like schiznack. the japanese music videos they had were fucking heelarious… =)

karaoke was alright… a little alcohol would have made it more than alright. X:

bugger… afterwards we went to a soju bang (just me, dahye, phil wu, and phil [hsieh])… and it was cool… phil and phil drank some ohbi (or something), and me and dahye watched, and we got slightly lost on the way home, but random turning on random streets managed to get us on the highway (instead of east oakland, thankfully). ah, yes, oakland, where security guards smoke weed with you in the middle of the street. =P

phil got me the new ak1200 cd… wOot! well, @ least i THINK it’s new, because i don’t have it, but then again, i don’t have any of his albums. it’s hella mellow, though, like ltj bukem or something. some songs are good… others are, meh.

gambatte.

nightmare before xmas.

Friday, January 2nd, 2004

i’m listening to… “echo” by incubus [best song everrrr].
i’m feeling… alright.

2:07 am — my parents just got home… man, party animals, man. man! oh wait, shit, false alarm, the party animals are not yet home. damn, crazy. i could have stayed @ jon [toy]’s for another two hours, lol. -__-”

in the daytime, i watched “something’s gotta give” with my mom, cause she likes jack nicholson and therefore wanted to see it… the whole movie was like, old people kissing, and then there was keanu reeves kissing old lady (diane keaton), and then the whole theatre was old people too. i mean, seriously, who watches movies @ 10:10 am other than big weirdos and senior citizens :| it was an alright movie, a little too bad of acting and a little too chauvanistic for my tastes… i would rather have watched “peter pan” or “cold mountain” or something. mmm… jude law. sexy.

watched “nightmare before christmas” today with claire and jon… OMFG AMAZING… AMAZING… that movie is now on my list of faves. mister jon toy also had these bomb ass blankets with little 4th grader primary color trucks on it too, and one that was like the american flag… DAMN JIGGA MAN. THAT’S TIGHT.

btw, someone needs to remake “alice in wonderland”, and make it more evil, like american mcgee’s alice (the pc game). same with wizard of oz. whenever i’m famous (meaning never), i’m going to remake these movies if they haven’t been remade by then. because, they deserve to be. :| so many things to do, so little time. =)
