internship update.

Mar. 2nd, 2009 | 08:24 pm
mood: anxious anxious

dunno if this can really be considered an update, since i never really talked about it before.... but i am going to the island for 10 months starting in september!!! i put it as my first choice cuz i have a friend who wanted to go as well, otherwise i would have chosen to stay in vancouver.  however, if i put vancouver as my first choice, i ran the risk of being put into a lottery (cuz too many people want vancouver) and ending up in prince george T_T   sooo i chose the safe way out hahaha. ahhh internship... what a scary, scary year you will be...

school should have no assignments, ever.

Feb. 24th, 2009 | 01:37 pm
mood: lazy lazy

yeah... so i'm in class right now, not paying attention, trying to write a paper. let's emphasize the word "trying" here.  it's due in 24 hours. but i need to be at school at 11 am tomorrow... so... if i want it submitted/printed before i get to school... i will have to have it done by 9 am. so that gives me 19 hours. eep. and i will spend about 2 of these hours skating at the new oval (for free!) and another... 4 or 5 hours lounging around and sleeping at nelson's house. i am sooo screwed. hurray for no sleep and all nighters =D

overrrr!!

Feb. 17th, 2009 | 10:48 pm
mood: blank blank

as the subject entails, midterms are over! and it's reading week now... even tho i have a horrible project to do T_T it's not that bad... but i'm actually working for 8+ hours per day, and normally i have 3 hours max of school per day ;_____; so this is just me being whiny after having been sheltered for too long.  but we did go to the ubc farm today.  normally i would have hated it, but since one girl was late, we just waited at the entrance for a good 10 minutes and i watched the chickens. oh man, they look so cute and soft and cuddly, except when you see the creepy yellow glistening in their eyes >.<

but yeah, thinking about going to back to my old highschool on friday to visit some old teachers. or rather, to see one teacher: my home ec teacher.  ms fisher was/is the best.  she is so knowledgeable and patient,and always able to keep her cool in a room full of noisy, obnoxious teenagers who don't want to wear an apron.  she wanted me to be a home ec teacher too, but i am in dietetics now. ehh, pretty close. she's still my most favourite high school teacher ever.

Have a mandatory reading week project orientation today til 4:30, then i have to worrrrk at my chocolate shop til 9:30.  Nelson and his friends are having a pot luck tonight, so I will come later... but he won't even come all the way to the mall to pick me up! I have to take the skytrain to Main first! he's so lazy >.<   But anyway, since I'm coming so late, my contribution to the meal will be dessert hehe. Ice cream bars!!!! .... if they don't melt on the way over.... 

Anyway, good luck on your midterms!!! and past good luck for any midterms you have written already as well =P

midterms OVER!

mood: tired tired

i won't say they're defeated, because i think i did really poorly on my fnh midterm hhaa. but really, having one midterm at night, 7 pm... and then the next one the day after at 8 am? kind of brutal.... and i know i should be thankful that i only had two.. but i can't help but think that since they were squished together like that, i only studied the amount that i would have studied for one exam hahaha. in any case, my parents are going to whistler for the weekend, so i'm gonna go to nelson's house hehheheh...  and btw, no fried chicken!  so bad for me T_T   ... tho... i was pretty tempted to buy some fried chicken wings from that chinese place in the bottom of the sub the other day. they raised their prices! ack.

stil don't know who/what to be for halloween.... =/

so.... nelson left for almost a week to go to a foosball tournament. yup. he missed school and work. he better have won some serious cash prizes hahaha. i thought i'd eat kind of healthier without him around, since he always takes me out to eat... but i ended up having fried chicken, chocolate cake, noodle soup, cream puffs.... ahhh the list goes on T_T   miko, i know you say this is my normal weekend eating, but i am still disappointed in myself hhahaha.

ps. please, both of you, don't buy me fried chicken, even as a reward. i'll love it too much ;_____;

mood: excited excited

hey guys, sorry it's been so long.  went on that mexican cruise. can check for pics on facebook. ate SOOOO much. but it was worth the extra pound or two =P

i feel pretty slacker this term.. only 3 courses. i feel badly when i hear how much work other people have to do >.<   so school is only on mon, tues and thurs!  but my break does NOT coincide with yours. i'm so disappointed T_T i wish i could skip that class but we do so much participation each time....

anyway, i'm excited that my parents are going to whistler for the weekend! which means i'll spend the weekend at nelson's house hehehe. ahh the deception!!!!!  i was thinking if i should take all my stuff with me to school this morning and then just go to his house after class, but then i thought , "what if my parents come home before they leave and notice that my toothbrush is gone?!"  ahh the paranoia.. and waht if they call while i'm gone and no one answers the phone?!

but... i'm hungry now. so i'll eat before i go =)

so it's been a few weeks...

Aug. 12th, 2008 | 12:40 pm
mood: lethargic lethargic

 so i went to the fireworks on both saturdays. pretty fun, i guess. for USA fireworks, it started off that... the person i was gonna go with to save a spot with was late, so i went with two other friends... and we didn't have enough err... materials to save enough space for how many people we thot were coming. AND i thot it was gonna get super crowded since it was saturday. so i called miko and asked her how to get to dressew hahahaha and uhm.. yes. bought cheap $1/metre stuff to sit on~ the girl who cut it for me was so nice, since she was like "well, i'm not supposed to cut it in half for you, but i'll write up a seprate slip for each of them" =)  and then and then, it ended up i didnt even need all that space =(    but we had a toooonnnn of room later on when fireworks actually started so no one was squished while sitting. so nice =)

then uhm... i can't remember what happened in between, but i got my FMST midterm back the following wednesday and got 99% HOLY SHIT YEAH! annnnd then proceeded to slack ever so much afterwards... haha...

went to the finale for fireworks. it was pretty good, i guess. but a lot more crowded this time. i didn't bring all my uhh.. space saving implements... so it was more crowded. oh well. still fun tho!  the rest of that weekend i spent with my cousin who was visiting from kamloops. and then on the holiday monday, went to the states with nelson to pick up a board game. god, it's like all we ever do is play rock band and board games. and eat. a lot.  hahaha. at least he doesn't ask me to go outside with him and be... active... ugh.

the rest of the week was just me lazing around, not studying. baking lemon meringue pies for when relatives came to visit, and then for a family friend's bbq on sunday night.  mmm so lemony good....

but anyway, can't believe i'm going to mexico in less than 2 weeks! which also means less than 2 weeks til ae! even tho i can only attend like, one day T_T i have to volunteer on the friday, and then sunday i am leaving for mexico at freakin' early in the morning. and then, when i come back, s... ss...sscchoool will be starting >.<

... but then BACKSTREET BOYS CONCERT! mwahaaha =D

so i finished my fmst midterm in record time wednesday night, in 45 mins!!! for a 2 hour exam -___-;; i wonder if i should feel bad hahaha. but anyway, i finished hella fast and called nelson right away to tell him the good news! i think the first thing i said was "what is the quickest way for me to get downtown from ubc?!?" and he got all confused, cuz he was like "oh... so you still want to go?" and i was all "YEAH!!!"  but it turned out that only two of his friends were going, and so he decided he wouldn't go.... AND he just got his new cellphone that day.... so i decided to just go and hang out at his place. i didn't get to go see the fireworks, but at least we got to spend some time together on our anniversary >.<   he wanted to take me to sweet revenge on main street for dessert, but it's quite small, and when we got there, there was like a party of 8 waiting. wtf, there seriously is not space for that sized party, gtfo! >.<  so instead of dessert, we had anniversary wendy's -___-;; it's the first time i've had wendy's so.... i guess it was special... kind of... hahaha. he took a pic of our food, two baconators and some fries and a frostie, but he hasn't uploaded yet grr. HE'S the one with a 5 megapixel camera on his phone, so of COURSE i'm gonna depend on him to take a lot of useless pics. he should understand his responsibility!!!!!

gonna see fireworks tomorrow~ first time seeing them with nelson.... heeeehehheheh i'm such a creep >.<

so so... i'm sitting here "studying". yes. "studying".  hahaah it's so good since, we only have to study what the prof went over in lecture for the written questions on the exam, and the multiple choice questions will all be taken from this list of study questions she gives us for each chapter.  and they are all so very straight forward, and she tells u what she wants you to know... so if i actually finish doing all the questions, i should be able to do quite well on the exam!  but i will still be missing fireworks unless i can finish the exam in one hour >.<  i really doubt i would be able to do that, so i won't push myself haha. stupid fireworks, have to be on the same day as my midterm!!!! GO DIE!

-___-;; sorry.  i let my emotions get the better of me sometimes.

neglect!

Jul. 20th, 2008 | 08:21 am
mood: excited excited

haha havn't been posting for very long, but already neglecting this baby =P  so uhm... finished the cranes on the 17th at like, 5 am >.<  when i put them all in the vase tho (couldn't find a bottle/jar that was good looking of cheap enough) it didn't fill it up entirely T_T  so i asked miko what to do, and she said to replace a bunch of the small cranes i made with big ass ones. so uhm.. i did haha. turned out alright.  it was funny cuz i finished thursday morning, and then nelson came over for dinner that night. so i had to super clean my room up to leave no evidence of my work!! then we went to go see the midnight showing of the dark knight (so good >.<) and went to wait in line early, around 9.  turns out they were playing the movie in 5 theatres downtown, so the theatre we were assigned to had little to no line when we got there. and even when they opened the doors at 11 pm, once we all piled in there was still enough room for us to have easily found seats together -___-;; oh well! got to sit on the floor playing ff tactics advance while waiting hahaha. havn't played that game in so long, i think i'm hooked again. which is bad, since i need to study for my midterm....

so i basically didn't get home until like, 3 am that night and then had to wake up at a decent time in the morning to have breakfast with kevin before he goes to china/hong kong for the rest of the summer. then went straight to nelson's to try to fly our kite again~ but when we looked at the weather report, we figured it wasn't windy enough =( so we watched jumper instead. what a silly movie. oh, so very silly.  then, i, being my ever alert self, fell asleep for 2 hours =D  and then we hurried out to go to hapa izakaya in kits!! on the way there, he asked me what percentage of people i thought were going to arrive late. and we agreed that two our friends who are always late... would be late again.  well, i guess the joke was on us, cuz WE were the late ones! it was impossible to find parking in the area.... so when we entered the restaurant, everyone was waiting for us haha. so... we were right! two people were late, but not the two people we were thinking of.... so anyway, we all just went crazy and ordered everything we wanted.  and nelson was such a sweetie and picked up the ENTIRE bill.  i guess winning the jackpot at a casino can make you a little generous hehe. the total for 7 people was $400. INSANE! BUT SO DELICIOUS!  after dinner went went to walk on the beach to let our food settle and to sober up =P  there were empty volleyball nets set up for a tournament the next day, so nelson and some people started playing, and my friend yufei and i sat on the swing set nearby. and then these two brown guys came up to us and asked if they could swing with us. and so i just said sure, and started to get off. but then they said "oh no, you don't have to get off" and i said "but the only two other swings available are the baby seats." and he goes "no, we want to swing with you." so yufei is just sittng there, not really looking at them, and i got off and said "no, it's alright, you can have your turn" and picked up my bag to walk away.   and the guy kind of laughs and says "oh, way to cock block!" like, wtf! i don't believe it's considered cock blocking if a girl TURNS YOU DOWN. it just means that SHE DIDN'T WANT TO SLEEP WITH YOU!!!!!  in any case, nelson was too busy playing volleyball to notice, and yufei's boyfriend was also totally oblivious hahaha. 

so then yesterday, i went over to nelson's to celebrate our 6 month anniversary <3 <3 <3   he was quite surprised when he saw the cranes, since apparently he was expecting a code geass figurine hahaha. to be quite honest, i don't even remember if there was a point in time when he said he wanted one >.<  sooooo then he gave me my gift, which was a necklace =D it's one of those ones that are like, a bunch of small gems all connected in a slightly wavy line... i'm sure there's a name for it but i havn't looked into it yet =P  and then we went to playland for the afternoon, rode the coaster twice yay, got free donuts from my friend working there and kicked so much ass at ddr.  also bumped into my friends matt and ida. such a surprise!  ida wanted to play the games to try to win a prize, and before we came had already spent $9 trying.  so her and nelson played the water shooting game where u aim the water gun to fill up a tube of water or something... and nelson won!! so now, i would like to introduce biggie, the big headed turtle, to our .... strange family unit type thing.  after playland we went to seasons in queen e park for dinner. ahhh so nice >.<  we went at a time when we'd be able to see the sunset as we were eating.... and then we were supposed to go to nightmarket afterwards, but he was too tired. so we sat in his kitchen playing a board game =P

so anyway, that was my last couple days. gonna go to nelson's house again today and yufei will come over so we can dye my hair!! nothing too shocking, so the next time you see me, you'll still be able to recongize me. hopefully.

crane count: 765

Jul. 16th, 2008 | 10:31 am
mood: tired tired

that means i only have 235 left to go! w00t!!! ever since i bought more origami paper on the 13th, i made almost 300.  hmm, that doesn't seem like a lot. but i guess that's like, 100 per day... but that's not fast enough!! >.<  it now takes me ~1.2 minutes to make a crane. so it'll still take me almost 5 hours to make the rest of them. BUT it takes me time to write "i love you" on the inside of each one... ugh, i'm such a sappy weirdo. he will never read them! why am i doing this!!! ..... but i can't stop now, i already wrote inside over 3/4 of them...

that is all.

mood: rushed rushed

 soo... after i'd made about about 380 cranes (read as: 620 more to go) i ran out of paper. again. so yesterday after having dim sum for lunch for a friend's surprise birthday... thing, i went to aberdeen with some friends to get paper from daiso. but they didn't have the size i wanted, so i bought some that were too big >.<  but will have to do.  so currently, after folding cranes all during my summer course tonight, i've made a total of 474 cranes! that means 526 to go!!! ... T_T

but anyway, apart from the fact that i'm so behind in this little project of mine, saturday and sunday were really fun!  well, friday night as well.  i went to a friend's house for a bbq on friday night (oh man, he is SO CUTE. tall, blonde, blue eyes. mmmmMMMMM) and we made a huge fire in his backyard. too bad we didn't have any marshmallows to roast.  but anyway, my friend daniel bought me pomegranate coolers cuz he knows i hate the taste of alcohol, and everyone was so proud of me when i was able to drink two of them. over a 6 hour period hahaha. my face was SUPER FLUSHED, i know it.  i had actually asked nelson to come, but it's a long drive to come to my part of town.. so i guess he just stayed home. but THANK GOD he did, because that morning (saturday morning) at 3:30 am, i got a text msg telling me that he'd won $20 000 at the casino. at first i was pissed cuz i thought to myself "who is gonna text me at 3:30 am? is it daniel? is he being an ass?!" but when i say that msg, i had to read "$20 000" twice, and then i msged back "holy shit, are you serious?" and he called me saying "YEAH I'M SERIOUS!"    soooo.. to make a long story short, i'm glad he didn't come to the bbq with me that night hahaha.  AND that kite that i wanted to buy... we ended up buying a super expensive stunt kite for $70. w00t.

speaking of that kite... when we started to fly it at the beach, i almost hit 3 people, nelson included >.<  when that thing starts to fall out of the sky, it just DIVES. oh man, i felt so bad hahaha. i finally got the hang of it after nelson had his turn flying then gave me tips... but i had to stop when this couple came to take pics on the shoreline. i thought it would be bad if they saw a bright green kite in the background of their wedding photos... or if i hit the bride in the face, or something. i don't thik that'd be a good memory.. for either of us. 

but anyway, that day at the beach was quite fun.  but i had got two mosquito bites on my right leg on friday night, so they started to get quite itchy on saturday. and when my leg was in direct sunlight, it just made them throb and itch even more, so i sat on our blanket with nelson's towel draped over my legs to protect them from the sun >.<  also, i think i got a tan hahaha

uhm... sunday.. yeah. went to dim sum for lunch, but the birthday boy was LATE! so we pretty much finished eating before he got there hahaha. my bites had gotten SO itchy and hurty on the way over, that when we sat down at the table i immediately asked for a pitcher of ice water and a plastic bag.  so i could put the ice in the bag and then hold it against my leg hahaha. then nelson came to pick me up from richmond, and we went to his house so i could put some calamine lotion on my horrible bites. then he took me a park nearby his house to try to fly the kite again, and when i took it out of his trunk, i saw that there was also bird seed there for us to go feed the ducks later >.< but anyway, flying the kite didn't go so well.. since the wind wasn't blowing very strong, or in a consistent direction. and then we didn't feed the ducks cuz it was getting hot out haha. so we went back to his house, watched code geass, then went to my house for dinner.  where we ended up watching the end of the miss universe pageant (ms USA HAHAH you fell down).  then i fell asleep while he was watching HGTV. kinda weird. 

all in all, good times. this week is gonna be so awesome, when i finally finish making those cranes >.<

kites also reject me.

Jul. 11th, 2008 | 05:23 pm
mood: irritated irritated

so i went to the kite store in gastown today, called kites on clouds. sounds really cute. i made sure i'd written on enough pieces of paper so that i'd have a supply to make cranes with on the skytrain... and also just procrastinated a lot in the morning and early afternoon. i thot about calling the store to make sure they were open, but thought to myself, "what kind of store closes before 5 pm on a friday? i'll just go." and go i did. 

UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME, when i got there, the door said "CLOSED" and it had one of those little clock signs that said "be back in" and then the clock said 5:50. who the hell writes 5:50 when it's 4 o'clock?! did you need a 1 hour and 50 minute break for dinner?  I DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!   so anyway, i kind of just turned around and walked away... and being teh stupid that i am, i didn't even bother to check the store's normal hours or anything. oh, woe is me... lackaday! no kite for me... T_T

oh well, i'll just get nelson to take me to the kites and puppets store in granville island before we go to the beach tomorrow mwahhaha.

ps. only 668 cranes to go!!!

cure... why?!

Jul. 10th, 2008 | 11:40 pm
mood: lazy lazy

SO, to the only two people who will be reading this.... i didn't get a registration e mail from cure to ANY of my e mail accounts. so that's my original e mail, my barely used yahoo account, AND the two live accounts i made just today as i was talking to you >.<  why doesn't english cure want me, i don't understand T_T

also, when i was taking the 41 today, this little girl sat down beside me and started staring at me as i was making a crane (because i'm trying to make 1000 paper cranes for nelson and mine's 6 month anniversary).  so she was looking pretty intently, and i ran out of papers with writing on the inside (cuz i'm being a 'tard and writing messages on each piece of paper... it is taking forever, i wish i'd thought it through more thoroughly before starting -__-;;) so i started to write on new pieces of paper.  and i guess i sort of had to angle myself in a way that i could write on it without my arms shaking too much cuz i'm on the bus, but this girl like, leaned over towards to me to see what i was writing. and it was sort of embarassing (but very worksafe) for her to see me write "Nelson, I love you" and then "Nelson, Happy 6 month anniversary".  so at this point, i think her mom, who was nearby, started to lecture her in french about how it's impolite for her to be staring at people.  well, i'm just assuming this since my french doesn't go past a grade 8 level, but what else could she have been telling her daughter?!  so anyway, she continued to stare, albeit more surreptiously from there on... but i decided, what the hell, and quickly made a pink one for her, since i assumed they were getting off at oakridge, which was coming up soon.  i gave it to her and her mom was like "oh! it's so pretty!" and the little girl said "thank you!" and i think she asked her mom in french wtf a crane was hahahahha. 

anyway, long story short, i now have one less crane to add to my collection. so i still need to make 748 T_T  but i DID take a two hour nap today, so i can afford to miss some sleep tonight to get ahead in my crane making. har har. ugh. kill me now.
