herrrooo

wow i have neglected this blog for far too long. to be honest there's not much going on in my life besides studying and eating...its a fun time.

anyways, i cannot believe i'll be home in two weeks. it's gonna be strange being back home when so much has changed. nevertheless i'm stoked beyond words. get to see my special family and goober friends after about three months. i've been thinking more and more about where i want to go after school finishes. i have always thought politics/international affairs was the way to go but now deeper and deeper into my studies i'm starting to have second thoughts. i wanted to do something that would affect others and make an impact in this very messed up world of ours. As far as what i'm studying right now, the passion is just not there anymore. don't get me wrong i will always have an interest in such matters but i'm just wondering if i'll be happy doing it for the rest of my life and i want to spend it doing something i'm happy about. i know fashion is an impractical route to a lot of people and i do see where they're coming from. there are so many girls that claim fashion is their passion and really their lives completely revolve around it even before they're in school. it would be such a waste to completely do a 360 and transfer to parsons. obviously i don't really know if i'll like working in fashion until i shadow someone. but it is so hard to get an insider's perspective in that field. i mean what exactly do magazines or designers look for when hiring someone outside of personal style? you know what my dream job would be? be a buyer for bergdorfs or saks. you get paid a crapload to shop and i think i have a pretty good idea of what would sell. who am i kidding...man those girls on the hills/city are so incredibly lucky. to have a camera follow them around and get paid thousands per episode and then lead off into such amazing opportunities at teen vogue or dvf.

i guess life really is about chance and luck sometimes, i mean watch this video:


the baby survived with a just a few small bumps on his head, incredible.

we get that one chance. usually it comes down to yes or no but it is always so much more complicated than that. i wish there weren't so many other factors. i wish you could just choose on impulse but alas life is life and i have just gotta deal with it and make my own chances.

what exactly do i want anymore??

well have a good one!

buh buh buh

so my homesickness is beginning to really get to me. not only am i lacking some good home cooked meals but i am beginning to miss my mother yelling at me. oddly enough. so i stumbled across these videos, funny thing is that i understand what the women are saying and i completely see that within my own family...good god, i wonder if i'll be like that once i hit 50?

one thing for sure, never fight with a middle aged asian woman. just don't do it, because trust me. you will lose. you'll see...


and also a majority of asian women are drama queens. myself included. we freak out easily cause its in our nature. we can't help it, so word of advice, just stand there, say and do nothing.


wowzers. too too funny

lets see what is going on in my life...?
well for starters, i cut my hair. a lot of it. it is pretty darn short compared to before. i am so excited for thanksgiving because yours truly finally gets to go home!! woot. but it also means hell until then cause of exams and papers and then once i get back more hell cause its finals count down. wow it just never ends but its funny how fast it is going by. also i heard it is extremely cold back home. apparently its snowing somewhere in md, which is pretty unheard of so i can't even imagine how bone chilling beantown will be.

yeah so a while back i told you about my bro sneakin his lovely face into all of my luggage, it was mighty beautiful to walk to class with his doofy face on a keychain on my backpack. oh did i mention he's in a police uniform. reals embarrassing...but i finally gathered most of it, there's more and here's a little snapshot of what i found:

there's the keychain and magnet up in the right corner, i also found a sticker of his face PERMANENTLY stuck to my retainer case, so every morning & night when i use it i see this extra special face. just look at the pose with the nature background and the glazed over eyes...he looks somewhat autistic, which he is.

and then this lovely scroll is hanging on my desk directly facing my roomate. so when she wakes up BOOM there he is. and that pose with the slight 20 degree lean is just priceless.

and lastly. this card. which i received in my inbox with a note: "snuggle buddy vic, i hope you like this, it took me over an hour to make." THIS TOOK HIM ONE HOUR TO MAKE. oh my dear god. that's all i can say, btw that's his face on what is clearly NOT HIS BODY.

i cannot believe i even miss him. the kid is that special.

well goodbye for now, these next few weeks are going to be gawd awful. i'll do my best to update!

love,

i wish i knew french...

wow i cannot believe it is october already...it is balls cold already down here in maryland. anyways what is on my mind today...

oh yes i cannot stand/hate flaky ass people
really it is common courtesy to either let the person know in advance or to give a simple gawd honest answer. Gesus krist...i really don't understand. and don't think people don't know. like updating your facebook or twitter when you're supposedly "busy". or completely ignoring an extremely important message sent to your fbook inbox. I KNOW YOU'RE THERE AND I KNOW YOU GOT THE MESSAGE. if it wasnt important, trust me, i would not make the effort. its not too hard to put two and two together. really it is just so extremely rude and disrespectful. don't act like a diva or a douchebag and beat around the bush. don't drag people around and think that their plans or lives revolves around your schedule. and if i ask you about it, give an honest answer, say yes or no or why, don't NOT REPLY AT ALL, and leave me hanging. good lord, i'm sorry but that is just one of my biggest pet peeves, when people can't keep their promises or make no effort at all. i'm glad momma taught me well. she may be crazy but she damn well did her best to teach me common courtesy and manners.

so the other day my roomate and i were extremely bored and losing our minds from studying so it was indeed another youtube night. i'm sure you've seen the two asian fobs lipsynching to backstreet boys. well we REdiscovered them and they are simply HIGHlarious, well at least to just the two of us. and so we spent the next 2 hours watching them and this is what we found:

the classic, look how big his nostrils get, and they look like my cousins....

and this one is too much simply because of the song and the sad part is that both my brother dick and i have this atrocious song on our ipods. and yes we groove to it.

this one is just weird, how many times does that kid come up??

and this amazing black eyed peas song. note their facial expressions...

AND THEN THIS ONE. it is my favorite. 1.) because my amazing mother has about 100 cassettes with this incredible music 2.) she dragged me to several chinese opera shows when we were in china 3.) here, they are the males, the females GO even higher, MUCH MUCH higher. i know, it makes me want to tear my ears off after, and 4.) LOOK AT THEM AND THOSE FABULOUS COSTUMES. what normal people own these and puts them on...it takes like 15 minutes to just put the bottoms on. plus i love the one boy in the back who just plays PC games while the two weirdos do their thing. he's completely at ease.

sorry i have a weird sense of humor and i for one, find these two incredibly fabulous and hilarious. maybe because they remind me so much of my own family...christ, there are many more videos but i won't burden you with strange azn videos. they do sing to some jay chou songs, also formerly on my ipod. sad, i know.

goodbye!
