Hi Again!

Merry Christmas Non-existing readers!! :D

'Twas a boring one (the day of) but I had fun before the actual Christmas day!

So I've said I'd post more of my personal thoughts onto my blogspot. Here it is.

While I was tumblr-ing, I've stumbled across this post that I missed. I wasn't sure what it meant because it was in code language... I was dying to figure out the meaning behind the acronyms. And when there are acronyms, I tend to try to make my own little sentences up to make sense out of it. Well, I made sentences that made a little sense, but it wasn't a positive outcome. I don't wanna make it seem like everything's about me, but I sure hope that it wasn't about me.

I'm just dying to figure out what it means and it makes me a little worried and scared. But then again, I might just be SUPER PARANOID. Should I ask? I think I will, because my heart will forever feel uncomfortable.

edit: YES, I HAVE ASKED. AND I AM REASSURED THAT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME! YAYYY. I AM SO RELIEVED.

Tumblring

I started to use to Tumblr nowwwww. I thought I wouldn't give in. But I did! If you want, follow meee :)

But I hope to not give up on this blogspot as well!
My more personal thoughts will go in here! Yes, that is my plan.

Optimistic Homeless Man

Homeless man on the L train:
Good evening everybody, my name is Homeless Ed, but you can call me Homeless for short.

HAHAHA. This homeless man was actually a really good speaker. He received a few dollars and I gave him my bag of Cheetos, and this guy next to me even gave him a flannel to wear! So nice! Towards the end of his little announcement, he said....

Thank you guys so much for helping me. If anyone of you called out for help, I would be willing to give you a hand. But I have no home... but I'm going to run for President, and maybe I can become the first black President. Live in a big white house. We'll see how that goes...

I wasn't sure if he was joking, but he had me and a few people laughing. Maybe he should just do standup comedy. But I'm glad there are such optimistic homeless people out there. Not all of them are so miserable, considering some people that are unappreciative of what they already have or could have...

Late - Funny Halloweeeen Prank On Kids!

LOL! Little kids being over-dramatic after being told their candies were all eaten. I had a good laugh! :D

All-Nighters?

The night before accounting midterm...

11: 15 pm
Starting chapter 1 review on connectplus.
Lying on my bed with blankets over.
Thinking of closing my eyes for a bit.
Opening my eyes when mother calls out, "BYE, I'm leaving!"

...WTF. It's already 7:15AM???

I don't think I was made for all-nighters. -_-

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA ♥

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my hardworking, loving father who loves to spoil me just a little. None of that nagging like mom. On your birthday dinner, you cooked for everyone, you looked like a pregnant man in an apron, and you blew out the candles before making a wish, but that's what makes you cute! <3 nbsp="" p="">

Embarrassing Moment: Salad Incident

Twas a rainy day, so I decided to do a lazy workout on the bike today. I was craving a salad at Baruch's salad bar. I neatly made my salad with some lettuce, grilled chicken, cherry tomatoes, tofu, pasta, and broccoli. Total came out to be like $7 something. Ehhhhh... a bit pricey, but, boy did I miss the salad I haven't had since last semester. As I came out of the cafeteria, I bumped into some homies near the escalators and opened my salad to eat and share.

After some hi's and bye's, people began departing to go upstairs and I thought I should leave as well. But I wanted to take the local elevator that stopped on every floor since there was barely anyone there. The door opened. I ran for the elevator in my clickity-clackity flats. With one salad in my hand and the other hand holding my bag, I ran before the elevator door could close. But little did I know, there was a spot of water on the floor that caught the little heel of my flats, and BAM! I slipped and fell on my buttocks. D: Not only did I fall down, but my salad fell all over the floor. The guy at the elevator was looking out, trying to hold the elevator door for me, but I was just overly embarrassed and looked away. My poor buttcheeks. My poor $7 salad. The grilled chicken I didn't get to eat! Those plump cherry tomatoes... ALL ON THE FLOOR. I was SO SAD. I walked back with only a little bit of lettuce in my salad bowl and told Hannah and some friends my sad sad story. These heartless people laughed at my pitiful story. I looked back at the floor with the floor filled with my salad. People waiting for the elevator and getting off the elevator were looking at the colorful debris, wondering what in the world happened. I quickly told a staff that someone had pushed me and I spilled the salad on the floor so they could clean it up.

Lesson learned: NEVER RUN WITH THOSE SHOES ON EVER AGAIN. NEVER HAVE MY SALAD BOWL OPENED WHILE RUNNING.

Random Toy

My mother just gave me a Green Lantern figurine.

Mom: Here. For you to play with.
Me: ... How old do you think I am now? I don't play with these anymore! But thanks!
Mom: I don't know. I just picked it up from the train station.
Me: ..... DID YOU CLEAN IT?
Mom: Nope! you can clean it now!
Me: Nah. I don't want it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA ♥

Even though it's a rainy day. And you're naggy. And you've been getting on my nerves lately. I still love ya. Not gonna lie, you still look cute as a 4$ year old ($ to keep that number a mystery! cus I'm not supposed to give out her age!)

Check Out His Guns!

LOL
My pops kissing his guns!

Or, that's what it looks like.
He was just dozing off and his head was falling.
It was quite funny.

I Need A Foot Massage!

So since Monday, the week starting with July Fourth, I have worked. Worked this whole week except Sunday 5- closing (12AM) and I'm tired of standing all day. My feet are always tired and what's worst is that even at 12-1AM, the L train is forever crowded. There are no seats for me to sit on so it's extra standing. Woop-de-doo. My feet are looking quite vein-y actually. Nasty.

Anyway, there was supposed to be a meeting today that starts at 8AM. I closed the night before, came home at 2, slept around 4 (the usual routine), and set my alarm to 6. Alarm rang. I dismissed it. Grace called me. I missed it. Berrywild called me. I woke up and realized it was 8:40. Chrys reminded me there was a meeting and asked me where I was. Shizzzzz... I was so late and I knew I couldn't make it. But I showered and went in. Meeting ended. But he said he'll let it slide this time. I know it's just a froyo Summer job, but if I can't even wake up to attend this meeting, then how will I survive my future jobs?

After I apologized, I went to eat brunch at Mama's with Grace, Evelyn and Janet. Surprise guest of Gloria! Finally got the pesto pasta I craved so much but I wasn't that satisfied because the one from Duane Reade that I stole from Evelyn gave me a better impression, with the sundried tomato and cheese. Not too salty. We all split after eating. Grace left me for work so I decided to shop alone. Who knew I bought so much shit. Already used most of my paycheck. :( Can't control myself yo. It was a successful shopping day alright! But the fun ends when I go in for work. D:

Highlight of the night: Sam (my boss) drunk-dialed Berrywild.

Me: Thank you for calling Berrywild, this is Daisy speaking.
Sam: Hellooooo?
Me: HELLO?
Sam: .....
Me: Hello Sam? (because there was caller ID)
Sam: Who is this??
Me: Daisy...
Sam: Do you know who I am?
Me: Yes... Sam...
Sam: WHO IS THIS?
Me: DAISY!
Sam: WHO ARE YOU?
Me: YOUR WORKER.
Sam: Oh... my worker! You work for me! haha

I didn't wanna talk to him anymore so I gave the phone to my co-worker. He was def out of it. Jerk still can't remember who I am. Next week, I'll have Friday - Sunday off (hopefully). Someone please massage my feeeet!

First Day of Work

Berrywild used to be fun when I was still a senior in high school. Probably cus a lot of my friends were working with me. And after school, we would all go eat together and go to work together. Those were the chill days. But now, Berrywild has become a lot more strict and NOT fun.

Two years later, I come back for work and I don't see any familiar faces... well that's not new, cus that happens for any future jobs I will have. But it was a bit boring because I don't know what they're talking about and they don't know me. So all I do is kinda stand there and wait for customers or clean while they talk. I feel like an extra on the movie set. Just in the background arranging things. I could eavesdrop... if I knew who and what they were talking about haha. The co-workers were nice, as of now at least. Sometimes I rather cut fruit with fruit-cutters downstairs. I can listen to my own music and chill in the basement. Like living in my own bubble yo.

I tried their new flavors today... Peach (kinda icy - which means it's icier and tarter.) and peanut butter. I love them both. I'm scared to eat them cus no one at work eats them. They're probably sick of it now.

I hope to adapt to their new system and workers quickly! Come visit me guys!! (Sorry I can't give out free yogurts yet cus I don't work at the cash register)

Am I A Good Sister?

I feel like I'm a very sociable person. I love people. I love company. I love making friends, not enemies. I love to listen to what people have to say. But am I just focusing on my friends... and not my family?

I make plans with my friends a lot. I attend people's birthdays and hangouts. But when my brother calls me to hang out once in a blue moon... I find myself rejecting him quite easily. Maybe because I'm so used to not hanging out with him, and I take it for granted that I would see him all the time (besides when he leaves for College... but honestly, I never really missed him). I wouldn't say I have a close bond with him, but I feel like it's because I don't give an effort.

Is it my fault for not going to hang out with him? I'm not exactly sure. Because I did make prior plans with my friends before I agreed to go with him to Crate & Barrel (which he told me he had the whole day planned out). It was such a hard choice. I like taking trips, but the only trip he usually takes me on are guilt trips. Which I absolutely hate. I give in very easily, which might be a bad thing, cus people would consider me a pushover. But why is it wrong to give in when all I want is peace? Woops, I'm getting off topic here.

I have called my friends, which only one I've actually talked to and I ended up going to meet with my friends. I had to break the bad news to my brother with apologies through text, because I can't say it to him, afraid that he would hang up on me... which he has done countless times. Even after apologies... he still keeps me on the guilt trip. Instead of just saying "Whatever" or "It's okay... you better make this up next time!" Stuff I think I would say... he would include a sentence that makes me sympathize, yet hate him. "Whatever. Do whatever you want. I'm just disappointed in you." Really? If you really want me to do what I want, please don't tell me you're disappointed.

Maybe I'm over-analyzing it. Maybe I need to try harder to become a better sister that would sacrifice her play time with her friends to hang with her brother who works six days a week. One half-day out of the 6. "You're a bitch. I hope you know that." was one of the most memorable texts I have received from my brother. Does he deserve this hangout? Is it a matter of deserve or not? I think I should choose him over my friends one day... but when will that be? This kid likes to keep his anger in for a while. I'm not sure how he does it. But when I saw him today, we spoke a few sentences, but he would walk by me with glares. I wonder what makes him hate me so much though. To even defriend me from facebook three times. Talk about being a good brother, huh.

I'm still going to try my best in the future of being a good sister.

Spontaneous Nights

Yesterday, I told my mother I was going out, but I had no plans with anyone yet. I was just sick of staying home, so I decided to meet with the girl who works at Pinkberry and the girl with the saggy boobs. We picked the Pinkberry girl up from work. This man named Kent, walking a dog (Princess), was trying to pick her up as well! Princess ate my froyo cone, and, well, Kent took a bite out of Pinkberry-girl's cone. She was shocked. He tried to ask her out to coffee. Maybe one day, sir, if you're lucky, she might hit you up on the number you gave her. But you do seem to have a receding hairline, so there's less hope.

After awkwardly getting out of that, we went to eat at Lyrics Diner. It was alright... they just burnt our burgers so it was a bit bitter. They lacked in calamari. I liked their sweet potato fries and their service though! Evelyn and I were going to the bathroom to wash our hands but it was occupied. When the door opened, a waiter came out and said "Sorry, it was an emergency!" LOL No need to apologize and explain yourself, sir. Evelyn goes into the men's loo all the time without explaining herself.

Stuffed and in need of a walk, we strolled down to Berrywild. Our old workplace. Berrywild... UPGRADED itself! :O We sat down while reminiscing all the good and bad times we had. Suddenly we saw a familiar face of the guy that chopped fruits and made the yogurt. He remembered us, by face, but not by name. But it's okay, cus he referred to Janet as Bitch anyway. We were planning to work there again, since Evelyn said, "Beggars cannot be choosers" so along came the boss. Who also semi-recognized us and guaranteed our jobs back. Most likely, we'll give them a call...

The night ended with the two girls coming to my house and playing. Twas a pretty awesome and spontaneous night we had. Sometimes fun comes from the unplanned events. :)

Camwhoring in my new room with Ma Chun Ki & Evelyn mui mui

BIBIMBAP PICNIC!

Oh, I know Summer kinda started since June... I'm not exactly sure. But I haven't really gone out in a while. I want to go out, but I have to settle the shiz at home. After a long, persisting argument with my mother yesterday, she finally allowed me to go out today!

What do I love about Summer? Not so much the weather... but I sure love picnics! Especially at the wonderful, green-filled grass parks. Today was our Bibimbap Picnic Day! :D I was VERY excited. Everyone was supposed to bring a certain thing to include to the bibimbap and I chose to bring the meat. I brought chicken bits! I was supposedly bringing ground beef, but due to the lack of beef at home, I used chicken breasts. It was BYOR (Bring Your Own Rice) but we bought most of the rice and ingredients at Woorijip. Anyway, it was a big success and bibimbap was DEEELICIOUS. But we brought too much to finish. Had to loosen my belt yo. A belt I didn't have. Hahaha.

Digging in at our first bibimbap picnic! :9 SUCCESS.
Ingredients: Rice, long-stemmed mushrooms (made by Evelyn),
cucumbers, radish strips, eggs (fried by Grace), spinach,
my homemade chicken bits and last but not least, pepperpaste&sesame oil! :D

There were Evelyn and Grace, who were as wild as always. Jeffrey and his gallon of water, spilling it all over Sooin (Ms. DramaQueen). Dahae just trying to be a good mother. And Christina just being Christina. (Sorry I'm not sure how she behaves normally) LOL. It was a great day despite the fact that we had to watch Evelyn change out of her dress in public and get shot and threatened by her watergun all day!

Sighhhh. I wish everyday was as care-free and warm as today!

Internet-less & Cat in Wall

For the past week, I've been internet-less. It was HORRIBLE. I felt semi-disconnected from the outside world ('cept my family) (if it weren't for my cellphone which allowed to me to text limitedly, I'd be fully disconnected from the world). Anyway, I have learned to watch the TV more. LOL. Ever since the internet, I watch everything online. I have also been writing in my journal that I have left behind for half a year (since Christmas). I guess, it was a bit better. More peaceful...

But I'm so glad I got it back now. I wonder if I can actually not rely on electronics for a month... DOUBT IT.

BTW. There's a freakin cat stuck in my wall. I think it's been there for a week already. I heard it VERY CLOSE to me as I was making dumplings today. So I thought it was in the cupboards. Apparently, it was in the walls. Walking around. My dad came home and opened a little crack, but he had to go back to work. And then... I SAW IT. I saw the cat. Who peeked out into the thin crack of the cupboard where it saw light. I meowed. It meowed back. It must've been hungry so I fed it a croissant. The position it was in was not very easy for it to eat. The starving cat kept sticking its paws out to grab the food as soon as I put it on the crack. Not sure if I was spoiling it because the sympathetic cries turned into the demanding meows. Until we get you out completely, I'll feed you a whole meal, ya darn cat.

I took a video. Here are some captures of the video:

The cat's paws and claws are no joke.

EDIT: At around 9ish. The cat finally came out after my dad took the cupboard down. Actually it was reluctant to leave the top, so my dad had to pull it -_-. It was a pretty big cat, but I think it was very pretty. Like orange-ish. It had nice soft-looking fur. Too bad I didn't get a picture before my dad immediately let it out in the dark. But cats are meant to be independent. Bye meowing wall.

I HATE MOVING.

So, this week and the following will be quite hectic.

I've JUST moved into my new apartment (downstairs) and even though it's just one floor apart, it was very tedious. Somehow I think it's making my family become more aggravated and so we tend to argue more about EVERY LITTLE THING.

My brother has been sucha a pest lately. He's like those flies that buzz around your head once in a while... goes away, and comes back. Too bad I can't zap him with my amazing electric racket. My mom, on the other hand is also complaining a lot. So when both my brother and my mom are together, it drives me crazy.

To gloss the floor or not? My brother didn't want his room's floor to be glossed, so my mom goes to his room secretly to gloss it. My brother goes down, and it's just war.

Who has the keys? My mom usually holds the keys but it disappeared. We all got very annoyed looking all over for it, because we basically packed almost everything into big black bags and containers. Digging through clothes and bags was no fun. My mom got blamed and she got really angry. She said we always blame everything on her. She hates it when my dad yells at her too.

It's just hectic at home. I can't wait till everything's back to normal. Gotta paint my walls and get used to my room first. Finally got a bigger room with windows! LOL

HELLO AGAIN!

Hello world! Sorry for my uber long absence on my blog!

Things you may all know that has happened ever since I've been gone:
* I am now an official brother of the professional fraternity, Delta Sigma Pi (DSP), #68. They call me Sunny D. Heh.
* That's about it. LOL

I guess that was mostly what I was busy with. Actually, I don't have much to write today. It's only because I've asked Carrie to change my password on Facebook to keep me away from distractions so that I would be able to study for my finals better... but now I'm bored. I must resort to other sites to keep me unbored. Still, once I'm on AIM... I'm as distracted as I am on Facebook. It's horrible. The internet. Is a horrible creation.

Sorry, if this was a boring post. I'm kind of braindead. I think I wanted to sum up more important stuff, but this is all I could do. But I'll be updating it more often now! :D

PEACE.

Busy Bee

Yes, in the last few posts, I've mentioned that I'm so busy. And I still am. -_-

Things just keep coming at me, giving me so little chance to rest. Oh, Spring Break, how I look forward to theeee. The weather is still kinda chilly too. But I think it's sorta looking like Spring now. It is already April! One more month till the day I celebrate my birth. Hehehe. By then, I hope the stress isn't too much. But it might be. Since it'll be finals and such.

Although I'm busy, I usually like to procrastinate and go play. I met the Sandbox's grandmother with the Seesaw today. She was sucha cutie and sweetie. Calling us chubchubs, but liking the fact that we have more meat than her own granddaughter. Hehehehe. We baked brownies, microwaved popcorn, drank some kool-aid, ate ketchup chips, and had some lettuce with her gma's homemade sauces. It was quite a successful and fattening day, I must say. I think we have won her sister's and gma's appreciation towards us. I heard it was tough, but mission complete!

Another highlight of the day? SUPERHERO TATTS. AIGHTTT :D

Iron Man, Spiderman, and... The Hulk -_-

Anyway, I'm about to pass out even though it's not even 1am yet. I've been very sleepy lately. I need to catch up on my Zzzzz's, lose a few pounds, and study A LOT HARDER. Goodbye, till who-knows-when!

Friendship.

Friendship is such a difficult topic, as much as relationship is. But, I wouldn't know because I've never been in one. LOL.

Anywho. I've made a post last year about how friends come and go. And I've came to realize this whole thing again. Like it's good that you're having a buncha new friends, or like reuniting with your old friends, but what about the friends that you have hung out with temporarily? Do you just throw them away for your new friends/old friends? Cus that's what I feel like I did. Like she's there, but instead of like back then, we just do small talks. Like "Hey! I like yo shoes!" "Bye, seeya tomorrow!" I don't know. And of course, everyone's busy with work and such too. I wish I had more time to hang with everyone.

It's funny because I was so up for doing the topic of friendship for my social psychology class. We're supposed to make a skit or some kind of video for a topic. I was gonna end it with one of my favorite quotes in this little book I found:

"There are big ships and little ships. But the best ship of all is friendship." - Anonymous
I was hoping it would make the class say "Awwww." Even though it's super corny, but at least let them crack a smile for corniness, ya know?

However, it's quite a difficult topic. And we haven't reached that topic in class yet. So as of now, I hope we're doing cognitive dissonance. I'm still down for pung yow ship though! So holla at me if you think I should stick to this topic. Or don't holla at me. Cus I don't even know who reads this blog anymore.

New Fam!

Busy busy.

It's only the beginning of 2011, and a lot of bad stuff are happening. My co-interns and I were talking about how it might just be the end of the world soon. It's scary. I hope Japan will recover from the carazy earthquake and tsunami quickly and stay strong!

Anywho, I'm joining into a new "family" now, and I hope I can adapt well to it! However, as I'm excited for this new family, I'm having problems with my real family. Like, my mother must be going through menopause or some shit. I'm sick of her complaining and nagging me. She gets mad at me for not drinking soup. What the heck. I ask her if she wants to eat anything when she comes home and she says "No", but she goes ahead and cooks herself some cold veggies. I would've cooked it for her, but I guess she doesn't want me to. I asked her if she's okay, and she just glares at me. Okay, mother. I'll forgive you for the moment, because dad is away for China and I'm probably ignoring you since I'm always busy with this and that.

Gah, I just sounded like a bitch. But sometimes things are just coming at me all at once that I must start venting out.

As of now, this video can cheer me up!
Here's for all my unicorn-loving friends! :)

Sick & Lacking Sleep

This month has just begun and I'm feeling all stressed out already. There's too many things for me to do and I'm coming home late a lot. I want to play, but I realized I have to focus more time on studying, internship, and doing homework, however distractions are always welcoming themselves! D:

On top of having loads of shit to do, I've caught myself a cold... or idk what it is. My nose gets runny sometimes. I'm constantly coughing, most likely there's a lot of mucus and phlegm stuck in my throat... yeah, it's gross. I'm not sure if it's my sickness, but I've been sleepy at around 12 or 12:30 lately. Like my eyes get blood-shot. And I still feel sleepy after I wake up.

Anywho, I'm pretty sure I failed my first Stats midterm (which is worth 25% of my grade), so there's a high chance I'm gonna withdraw from that class. The professor has no tolerance in listening to people. Way to start off the month of March, huh? It's been cold and breeezy still... can't wait till the real Spring weather comes along!

STATS Professor.

My Statistics professor is a not-so-great teacher. But what he does best is cracking some weird jokes. It's funnier cus he has an accent.

Today he said, "In the midterm, there's going to be chapter four, five and six. Not like the syllabus (1-6) because I'm afraid some students will commit suicide and this and that."

LOOOOL! I don't think 6 chapters will cause someone to commit suicide!

Quote of the Day

"I had two bananas tomorrow." - Ev.

LOL I'm gonna start writing down quotes of the day in my handy dandy booklet thing. I'm excited for more! :)

The Harsh Truth

Mom: Do I look fat in this?
Dad: Are you fat?
Mom: Yes... I am fat. D:
Dad: Then if you're fat, you'll look fat in anything you wear.

LOL. My dad is so funny. I don't even think he looked at what my mom was wearing. But my mom isn't even fat. She just has a little gut... which, for women her age, is normal.

Mom: I need to lose weight. :(

MY FUTURE BEBE.

TOO CUTE!

Who secretly loves babies too.

Interesting?

Don't you just hate it when you're having an introduction with a buncha new people, and they tell you to state your name, age (or grade), and an interesting thing about you. The thing that bugs me is the "interesting thing". How can I possibly come up with something interesting about me all of a sudden.

So this happened in my psychology class. Good thing we had to put it on paper. I wrote: I have a brown thing in my left eye. LOL. That's interesting enough I thought.

But, today, I had to tell a big group. I can't say that there was some shit in my eye because I knew they would immediately (well, at least the people next to me) would try to look at my left eye. And they would think I have a disease. Many people said where they're from so I decided to do so too.

"Hi, My name is Daisy, I'm a sophomore and I live in Ridgewood."
Besides Wilson saying "WOoo" Softly. It was silent. LOL no one knew where Ridgewood was. But I didn't say anything after. They moved on.

SIGH. I need to think of a default "interesting" thing about me for future use... so that it won't end out as awkward as it was today!

Pre-Chinese New Year

So, Chinese New Year is tomorrow! February 3rd. It's quite early this year. But it's also quite messy out there. Today was one of the worst days ever... so I'm going to rant about a series of unfortunate events that happened.

Today I planned to wake up at 6 to read my textbook before my 9:30 class. My alarm didn't go off. My dad woke me up at 7 (fortunately) and I had to get ready to leave the house. When I went outside. It was horrible weather. Slush on the floor, rain, ice, all those on top of the leftover snow too. Gross. So I had to walk real slow and cautiously to the train station. I thought I was gonna make it to class on time cus I got off 14 st. Union Square at 9:10ish. Thinking I was going to get to school in 5 minutes, I saw a crowd of people standing at the staircase waiting to get down to the 6 train. I walked closer. There was a mob. Like seriously, no space left down there for people to stand. And it was hard for people exiting the train to go up. Apparently, there was a fire on the Brooklyn Bridge and there was a sick passenger on some 50th street. Insanity. I arrived to class late 10 minutes. Good thing I got on the 3rd train that came. But I was still late, so I lose a point.

Okay, after that. Not too many bad things happened to me, but I came home at around 6:30 and my dad asked me why I took so long. Why was he mad? I get off at 5:30. It's normal to come home at 6:30. But I found out that they had a carazy day too.
- Basement flooded with 2 inches of water.
- Roof leaked to 3rd floor, 3rd floor leaked down to us (2nd floor) and it continued to leak down to the 1st floor. My dad had to fix that thing and he was CARAZY ANGRY. 'Cause it wasn't just one flight.
- Street was filled with snow and sleet, so he had to shovel.
- Inspectors came to check our radiators 'cause our dickface neighbor complained about paint coming off of the radiator.

After all this, they had to go to Brooklyn to pick up a roast pig for Chinese New Year. They had to do all these traditional incense-burning and money burning stuff. Finally, they got to the cooking at 7:30. I had to help cook, help clean up, everythangg! IT WAS JUST A HECTIC DAY. I've been sleeping late this whole week since my cousins came from Venezuela. I have to help out with things, even if I have homework. As soon as I get back into my room, they call my name once more. Can't wait till this carazy week is over.

Dad or Child?

Sometimes I feel that the roles with my parents reverse... especially with my dad.

After dinner...

Me: Dad, you should stand up and walk instead of sit here and fall asleep.
Dad: Why should I?
Me: I heard it helps the blood run faster.
Dad: Where does the blood need to run fast to?
Me: FDAJFKAJ!! Becausee if you just sit there, the blood might run real slow and get clogged up!!

It was actually funnier in Chinese, but yeah. I'm not even sure if that's true (about the blood running faster) but I do know that if you just sit there, the blood can clog your arteries easily. Better to be active than not!

UGH.

MOTHEREFFIN MICE IN MY HOUSE.
I was wondering what they were doing in my kitchen making all that noise. Apparently, they were feasting on the sweet potato my mother left on the kitchen floor.

I HATE THEM. NEED TO BUY SOME MOUSE TRAPS ASAP.

My Brother What?

Andy was a bit weird back in Elementary school. We were laughing about it and telling it to Luisa. But, back then, he did a lot of crazy shit...

- Andy would always be called to Dr. May (the school's peer mediator/guidance counselor) when he would fight with other people back in 2-5th grade. My dad was always embarrassed to have to come in all the time.

- Andy would watch wrestling and practice the moves on me. Some body-slamming and some (semi-light) punching and kicking. Good thing he didn't throw chairs at me.

- Andy used to chase me around the house with a butcher knife when we were home alone together. I remember crying and running into my parent's room and locking the door. He kept banging it and saying he'll chop me up when I come out. After a while, I come out and call my dad. Andy's next to me as I call my dad, and my dad asks me what's wrong, I had no choice but to say "nothing..." and hang up. After that, whenever I tried to tattle tale on him, he would pull of the phone lines... quite a scary experience I must say.

- Andy was such a bad kid one day, my dad pulled over at the police station and told him to get out the car, otherwise he'd drag him in. Good thing everyone in the car convinced my dad to give him one more chance.

I have no idea what in the world Andy was thinking, but he became a bit more normal after entering Junior High School. Because I knew he stole all my Chinese New Year money I hid in my closet and under my mattress (how silly of me). After entering High School, he finally began to become more humane and promised to stop stealing from me (money at least). But he has yet to quit his lying habits. He lied that he didn't smoke. He lied that he didn't eat my chips. Because every time he lies and he knows I know the truth, he continues to deny it with a guilty smile on his face.

I Don't Wanna Be A Duck.

Jeffrey shared this funny and cute video with me.
I got a good laugh out of it, showed my parents, who didn't laugh. They have no sense of humor. I mean, C'mon! They look like tumbling garbage or leaves from far away! But they get back up and keep on tumblin'... to whichever direction the wind blows.

A.Moy Makes My Day

1.) It is only polite to start eating when everyone's food arrives at the table. Unfortunately, my food took forever to come, whereas Alex's food arrived for quite a long time. She became fidgety and couldn't stop staring at the food. Suddenly...

"I HATE MY LIFE!" - A.Moy

Only because she couldn't eat yet.


2.) Me: Are you gonna have babies?
A.Moy: OBVIOUSLY.

So everybody wants babies in A.Moy's world.


3.) An easier way to get a job at Express:

"You go lower, and lower and lower..." - A.Moy

Embarrassing Moment: Gym Incident

Today I hit the gym for the very first time of the year.
As usual, I would hit the treadmill and start jogging.
As usual, Wilson would talk to me when he jogs next to me.
Not as usual, I nearly fell off the treadmill, letting out a little scream. So embarrassingggg. I tried to play it cool and left for the bathroom. After coming back, I continued to jog like normal.

Then I went to the elliptical machine.
Worked out a bit there and went to where Wilson was at: the hip abductor. Now, this machine, I usually avoid. Because it's such an awkward position. You have to open your legs to work them out. LOL. Good girls don't open their legs! But I sat there anyway as Wilson did the hip adductor next to me. Hip abductor works out outer thighs, hip adductor works out inner thighs.

Anyway, there was a weight training class in session. And they were exploring the machines. They came over to the hip machines and I heard the instructor say, "Oh, good, we can kill two birds with one stone." Because Wilson and I were working on both machines so we can demonstrate. Uhhhhh... I didn't wanna demonstrate. So they watched Wilson first. I pretended they weren't there and fixed my headphones. But they were staring at me next. I felt it. The whole class of guys. After like a 10 seconds of watching me do nothing, the instructor whispered to me, "You're wasting time!" And I gave out a sigh and started doing it. Opening my legs.
SO EMBARRASSING!

Moving on to the next machine to work out my arms.
I wanted to work out at the tricep machine and this guy was standing there. I made a little movement saying he could have it if he was waiting for it. But instead, he smiled at me and said, "Helllooo theree, how are you doing?" ... "Uhhh... good?" I didn't know this creepstah. I just wanna work out!

Well, those were the embarrassing moments of my workout day. I will be having my first karate lesson (with the stiff uniform I bought today!). I hope it'll be a fun and meaningful experience!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HAPPY 2011 GUYS!

Spent New Year Eves with Andy and Wilson at Serendipity. Yummy dessert. Luckily we got to eat there before they closed at 5. The wait to get in took around 2 hours, and it was alright. It's just the hype that gets everyone so excited.

Strawberry Fields Sundae

On the first day of January, my aunt and uncle from Venezuela came to visit. It's a bit troublesome that they're living with us in our tiny apartment, but nonetheless, it's a good company. I hope they will have fun for the 10 days they'll be in America.

As of now, I'm still kinda annoyed that I will be sleeping with my parents, Andy will be sleeping in my room, and they will be sleeping in his. They could have slept in their own apartment at my cousin's house, but because of some superstition, they decided to stay in our squishy home.

Anywho, instead of complaining, I'm grateful for 2010 as I bade it goodbye. It's been filled with ups and downs, good and bad, but in the end, everything was memorable.

I hope 2011 will be a good and better year for errrrbody!
