Day Six.
Write 30 interesting facts about yourself.
I am currently eating Cheddar Broccoli soup with XXtra Flamin Hot Cheetos; Dr. Pepper on the side.
At school, I park in the lot/structure that is closest to my last class—even if it’s a lot further away from my first class. I like the feeling of a short distance to walk at the end of the day.
I’m practically always early or on time....
16 months.
Unofficial. Pretend. Almost. Kinda. Call it whatevers. I’m still happy :)
Dream Interpretations
I started off Thanksgiving Break so so happy, cause I thought I was going to get the best sleep ever! But I ended up coming back to school with raccoon eyes because the opposite of my dream break happened. I couldn’t sleep for the past 5 nights. I’ve been taunted with horrific dreams, some that still give me the chills when I run them through my head over again. I had dreams of me...
Day Five.
A time you thought about ending your own life.
Everytime I see no food in the fridge—FUUUUU. Haha, jk.
Day Four.
Your views on religion.
I am not extremely religious. Neither is my family. I was raised to just have knowledge of my religion and to not disrespect it (as well as others’ religions). I am Buddhist. That requires me to live life without greed, unnecessary desire, evil intentions, etc. You know—all the bad stuff. And I think I do pretty well in that aspect. I’m kinda disappointed...
Day Three.
Your views on drugs and alcohol.
As long as you don’t have to add “-aholic” to the end of each, I think drugs/alcohol—if it is in your life—is acceptable. I, personally, don’t do drugs. I don’t drink often (only with family and occasionally with a close friend). I have nothing against people who do though. I just pity those who feel as if they can’t...
Day Two.
Where you’d like to be in 10 years.
I’d like to be a lot of things. Because within a period of 10 years, you can define where you’ll be and who you’ll be. Like.. I want to have been in a different country. I want to be a better cook than I am now. I want to be happy with everyone in my life, as I always have been. I want to be either done with school or pursuing something even...
Rest in peace, Camry.
My car died. That old, white antique finally broke down. Its gonna cost me $600 to fix it—$600 that I don’t have T__T So now I”m car-less for the time being. Well, not exactly. I’m Camry-less. Right now, I’m sporting a red, two-door Acura 3.0CL and its so scary to drive! It drives so much faster than my Camry though, so I’m happy. Let me just point out...
Day One.
Your current relationship, if single discuss how single life is.
I’m forever alone.. HA! Well, there is this one guy. He’s kind of a jerk. He kinda likes to ditch me to play games. He kinda likes to say he’ll do dishes but then sits there while I eventually do them. He also kinda likes to laugh like a helium-filled balloon being inflated. He kinda has a big, fluffy head....
Just cause Uyen's doing it too, tehe.

Day 08 - A moment you felt the most satisfied with your life....
Why do I procrastinate?
When I know I can finish my work with no problem so so so easily. Usually, when I think about doing the homework, I get discouraged and lazy and distracted. But once I get going, I’m on a ROLL. Just finished writing a 5-page essay (3-page minimum requirement) in less than 2 hours. I owned that ish! And I’m proud of it :) Now, I can spend the rest of my day writing my other essay....
Things drivers do that annoy me.
-Decide not to pull to the right side (in some cases—try to weave through those who have pulled to the right) when an emergency vehicle w/its siren on is driving by. Are you in a rush to go save someone too? Cause there’s no excuse!
-Park in the handicap section when they’re not in any way disabled.
-Honk obnoxiously at pedestrians who are in their path for a brief minute.

I love bullet points. Ever since I started using Microsoft Word 2010, I’ve fallen in love with taking notes involving bullet points.
Daniel Nguyen has texted me “Good morning” every morning for the last 2 weeks. Makes me smileee.
I went to Uyen’s house yesterday and had bomb-ass spaghetti with black beans—so DERICIOUS. Must get the recipe.
Speaking of recipes, I...
Ramblr.
Because I don’t tumble, I ramble. On and on and on.
Starbucks application.
Why must you be so dang long? Oh well. Guess it’ll be worth it if I’m actually offered a job. I need to get off my butt and look for one. School costs way too much and gas is draining all the money I have—even my pocket change! And I didn’t even calculate my personal spending. Not that I have to anyway since I haven’t gone out to eat or watch a movie or go shopping...
Oh yeah? So what if I still eat the silver MAMA noodle bags, crushed. That’s the best way to go! Who put an age limit on certain foods, HUH?!
A tendency to stare is considered rude.
But sometimes, you need a person on the outside looking in to potentially save you.
I was on the inside looking out, though, lol. I was sitting in the library, bored. Waiting for my little sister to find her anime books so we can leave. So I start staring outside. People always told me I had a staring problem. But this time it was put to good use. I looked around at all the brides and grooms...
Update!
-So I didn’t get that four day weekend that everyone else did. I couldn’t block out my conscience enough to ditch Friday class :(
-We have to give Bambi away. He’s crying too much at night cause he doesn’t like sleeping outside. So one of my dad’s clients is taking him. So sad, we finally got a dog too.
-I have lots, lots, lots to do over the following week or so...
A heartbreak isn’t always as loud as a bomb exploding. Sometimes, it could be as...

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
“I bumped into something and was knocked to the ground. It took me several breaths to gather myself together. At first I thought I’d walked into a tree, but then that tree became a person—who was also recovering on the ground. And then I saw that it was her, and she saw that it was me.
‘Hello,’ I said, brushing myself off.
‘Hello,’ she said.
‘This is so funny.’
‘Yes.’
How could it...
Good Deed
I was walking past the convenience store to buy chips and a man stops me. He was a representative from a homeless organization, accepting donations in any amount or form. I donated the dollar I was going to use to buy Hot Cheetos.
Me - Bag of Chips = Contribution to the efforts of the “Another Chance Outreach” organization to help feed/house a family.
Yeah, I didn’t need those...
Where the boys at?
I think I discovered the origin of man’s demeaning phrase towards women: you belong in the kitchen. My professor was discussing a 1954 home economics textbook that was published for the sole purpose of influencing women’s roles after WWII. There is a section titled, “How to be a Good Wife” and here are some of its bullshit main ideas :)
• Have dinner ready. Plan ahead,...

I'm itching
To find someone’s tumblr that’s worth the read. All I see are image posts/reblogs. Not that I don’t appreciate those either. But. Where are all the adventure stories? The thought-provoking blogs? The mind-boggling written experiences? The insights, the intrigues, the indescribable. Give me some’ah that! This post is dedicated to @uyenkha for sharing a written account of her...
