Bored in tech class again. A few songs for Max to download if he doesn't have them already~ (don't you feel special?)

"Let's dance to joy division,
Celebrate the irony.
Everything is going wrong
But we're so HAPPY."

~Let's Dance To Joy Division
by The Wombats.

"Monday, you can fall apart.
Tuesday, Wednesday, break my heart.
Oh, Thursday, doesn't even start.
It's Friday, I'm in love."

~ Friday, I'm in Love
by The Cure

"Here's another song 'bout a gender I'll never understand."

~ Kill the Director
by The Wombats

"I've got friends who lala-lie."

~ La La Lie
by Jack's Mannequin

"And I'm on my knees,
Looking for the answer.
Are we human?
Or are we dancers?"

~Human

"Tiny curtains opened,
And we heard the clap of little hands.
A tiny man would tell a joke,
And get a laugh from all the folks."

~ Missed the Boat
by Modest Mouse

"I miss you,
Goin' back home to the west coast.
I wish you
Could put yourself in my suitcase.
I love you
Standing all alone in a black coat.
I miss you,
Goin' back home to the west coast."

~ West Coast
by Coconut Records.

"Well, it would've been, could've been worse than you would ever know.
Oh, the dashboard melted, but we still have the radio.

Oh, it should've been, could've been worse than you would ever know.
Well, you told me about nowhere well it sounds like someplace I'd like to go."

~ Dashboard
by Modest Mouse

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!!

Here's a comic: Over The Hedge

I know it was yesterday but someone wish Asumi HAPPY BIRTHDAY from me and jess!!!!

blah. computer class is so boring... I made a....clock. well, a picture of a clock. it's so ugly.

oh and i got my midterms back a couple weeks ago. Me and jess both did good. My rank was 32 and hers was 58.

BOO!

2008-10-31T02:25:00.000-07:00

It's Halloween (see above) and I HAVE to make a post on Halloween...

We have midterms D: so we couldn't have the Halloween party on Halloween, but we will have one after exams. :D

If you haven't already done so, check out Jess's halloween post. It's so awesome. :D

Sadly, because of the oh-so-evil midterms, we can't go trick-or-treating. But I got a tootsie roll and two Hershey's Kisses today (I'm so special).

Because of the rain, Laura had PE in the gym with us. we played MASH, i mean, MARSH.
In the future, Jess will marry someone named Hat-Sun, she will wear a green dress and he will wear a black tux, they will honeymoon in JC Penny, she have one child, have a pet llama go to Harvard, become a publisher, make $5/hr, drive a volks wagon (sp?), and live in an apartment. She is going to do all of this before she is 18 because, that is when she will fall of a cliff trying to kiss Gerard Way and die.
I will marry someone named Evan, I will wear a rainbow dress and he will wear a white tux, we will go to Venice for our honeymoon, have no kids. I will go to West Virginia University, become an actress, make 3 million/half year (6 million/year, if you didn't figure it out), drive a Porsche, live on a ranch and have lots of pets. I forgot what age I will die at but I will strangled to death.

Wish me and Jess good luck on midterms.

Happy Halloween!

=D

I don't know which emails you guys check so I can't send that email-when-i-post-thing.

Anyways. School.

Math: Lu Xuedan.

Same as last year. We're doing geometry so the beginning is boring....especially because we're going so SLOW.

Chem: I FORGOT HIS NAME!!!

Um... well, we've had three classes so far and we've only got to the book just now. I mean, the other stuff is important too but kind of boring.

Eng: Miss Zuidema

I like class and it's interesting but it seems like it's going to be hard. And i don't want to do PSAT stuff again. Our homework for this weekend was to write down as many questions as we can and eventually get to 100. ANY question. Even stupid ones like: "when is class over?" or "What am I going to have for lunch?" i only have 14 so far.

History: Mr. Serrano

New teacher. We are is first history class after 20 years of teaching.
He seems ok. But we have to do so much reading. And the textbook text is so small. 15 pages??!! my eyes hurt.

Optional-movies: Hodachok

Sad. i know. I picked a class to watch movies.

Chinese:Liu Qiong

Seems ok? not much to say. it's chinese.

Enviro&Energy: oh-mee-gawd i forgot also. why are the names written in chinese?? (hey a question.)

It's ok. Have only had one class but I seems interesting enough.

Computer: mr. wang (ha! i can read is last name!)

so boring. he took so long with the example that we didn't get to go to the computer lab.

PE:i don't know again. BUT i have an excuse: i switched teachers and didn't get to find out my new teacher's name.

basically the same as last year. you can probably get away with not doing anything.

No art or music this year. I don't know if that is good or bad...

I volunteered at the library for afterschool...to get CAS points and to see all the books with out having to go at lunch.

Oh and you guess know someone named Lulu?? She's in my English class. I'm pretty sure she used to go to SAS because i swear i've seen her name before.

TWO days left of doing-absolutely-nothing (aka summer) until school starts.

Well, actually we have to go tomorrow afternoon for orientation. So like 1 1/2 days.

But orientation doesn't really count does it? Okaay, so 2 days. Or maybe 1 3/4 days.

Nope. Wait. This day is half over. SO 1 1/4 days. Yep. That's it.

Ow. Fractions make my head hurt.

----

Just got back from Singapore last night. It was great. We went to Little India like 3 times. My daddy likes India sweets. We also went past the preschool I went to. :D oh and we got.....BOOKS. I read Just listen by Sarah Dessen during the trip and I started BREAKING DAWN yesterday.

----

So now I'm basically bored. I have nothing to watch until new seasons start unless i start watching a whole new show. Which would be a bad idea. very bad.

Well I was sitting on Jess's desk, drinking apple cider (in the summer?!), and insulting other peoples' *cough* blogs, but we ran out of insults so...Now, I'm eating Nerds and writing this. And for those of you who didn't notice: I got a new layout.

brighter than sunshine

2008-08-07T23:28:00.000-07:00

I keep my heart locked in my chest hoping your heart will be the key.

George Bernard Shaw once wrote: "There are two tragedies in life: There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it." I understand how loss is a tragedy but to get what you desire most? Some wait their whole lives, hoping that what they want will someday be theirs. But what is there to hope for when they get it? The way I see it, they hope to keep it. They hope and they fight like hell to keep it.

And whether you fought or not, losing it-- that's the real tragedy, because you'll always tell yourself: "You could have done more. You could have fought harder. Letting go, it'll be one of your toughest challenges in life. And that place in your heart that was once filled with hope and happiness will become a void; never to be the same again. So maybe Shaw knows something I, who have never gained or loss their heart's desire, don't. But from what i know about life so far, there would nothing wrong, nothing bad, nothing tragic about getting you're heart's desire.

funny little feeling

2008-07-17T18:14:00.000-07:00

middle of nowhere~ hot hot heat <3

got back from japan 6 days ago. got my grades about three weeks ago. i think it's safe to say i'm posting this stuff uber late.

Japan was fun. we went to USJ, bunch of temples, little shops with cute little toys and things to buy, and we also ate good food.
i got a "study hard and get good scores" charm thing. and a bunny!!! :D no, not a real one. XP
oh and a tiny Japan flag from a restaurant.

i don't want to brag but...ok i will brag: i got a scholarship thing!!! when school starts i will be getting 3000RMB in cash. to spend on ANYTHING i want. so after school starts, we school hangout so you can help me spend it. XP

------

ok that's it.
now i figured it out. this is why i haven't written: i don't have much to write.

finally! summer is here.

2008-06-23T16:54:00.001-07:00

summer is here! summer is here! and i have to research japan!

oh well. i still have time to procrastinate. :D

this is so weird. i kinda want to go to school. So weird that i'll miss it b/c i don't even know half the people. i probably don't even know a quarter of the people. and partly because i feel like if i like the school, i'm saying i don't miss sas. which i do.

But at the same time, i wouldn't want to go back for any other reason than to see my friends. well, that's not true, there are many reasons i would want to go back. but i can't. i'm going into 9th grade. and even if went back as a 9th grader, as shallow as it sounds, i wouldn't want the embarassment of people other than my friends knowing.

---------

anyways.

it's summer. not the time to think of school.

oh and is this back up in shanghai or is it only because i'm using my computer's newly downloaded firefox (the new and improved v 3.0. haha)!?

happy summer everyone.

=D

shake it ~ metrotown <3

(damn, that picture is tiny. XP)

i don't like making complicated stories that have some hidden meaning or something. Or making stories about myself in THIRD PERSON.

SO, i will just write.

OH MY FREAKIN' GOD!! i'm doomed. a failure.

i keep thinking it's going to be fine. that i will pass the finals that mine parents are constantly bugging me about. but i'm REALLY worried.

i'm supposed to be done with studying geo and started phy. but i haven't STARTED.

SERIOUSLY, what kind of teachers give you homework NOW? the week before finals? why is it so important to teach EVERYTHING? DX

all i know is after this is over, it will be summer. and freedom... no wait not freedom.

research for a VACATION to Japan. D: why is it so important me and jess do it?? D:

still, i'm thinking if i just get through it, it'll eventually be ok.

anyways, for all of you people who are already leaving for summer vacation. i will miss you!

see you next year at some random get together or KTV-ing thing or a birthday party. <3

found my place

more than a love song- augustana

"Knowing is better than wondering, walking is better that sleeping, and even the biggest failure beats the hell out of never trying."

"It's a long road, and when you get to the end of it, you're not going to care about winning. You're just going to be relieved you made it to the finish line."

"Denial. It's not just a river in Egypt, it's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?"

"BECAUSE...IT'S WHAT JESUS...WOULD FREAKING DO!!!"

"If you want crappy things to stop happening to you then stop accepting crap and demand something more!"

-Grey's Anatomy

(i know jess practically the same but my boring ass imagination told me to do it.)

=D

all we can do is keep breathing.

lie in the sound- trespassers william <3

i'm so pro now. i uploaded a picture. XP

i don't actually have much to say but i am trying to think of things that aren't homework to do so...

-------------

Current activities: blogging, thinking about yesterday (and kathy's bladder probelms XP), avoiding doing homework (summary on MULAN and drawing a dissected fish), watching OTH, eating zong zi, and drinking iced tea.

didn't i say i could multitask?

and there is apple pie in the oven :D.

-------------------

"Too often, the thing you want the most is the thing you can't have.
Desire leaves us heartbroken. It wears us out. Desire can wreck your life.

But as tough as wanting something can be, the perople who suffer the most...

are those who don't know what they want."

yes i totally took that from grey's anatomy. <3

2008-05-02T20:00:00.000-07:00

everybody's changing-keane

what a copy-cat.

like everyone else, I will start by saying:
i don't what i want to do with this blog yet.

hmm...
poems? no.
stories? no.
song names? sort of?
not much of anything? yes. :D

---------

Dancing to silent songs.
Singing nonexistent lyrics.
Loving when no one loves you back.
Speaking when you have no words to say.
Living when you have nothing.
