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.

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!

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!

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!
