7 Things

For all you guys out there wondering why girls are "so complicated"

this is why.

7 Things by Miley Cyrus

I probably shouldn't say this
But at times I get so scared
When I think about the previous
Relationship we shared
It was awesome, but we lost it
It's not possible for me not to care
And now we're standing in the rain
And nothing's ever gonna change until you hear
My dear

The seven things I hate about you
The seven things I hate about you
Oh, you
You're vain
Your games
You're insecure
You love me, you like her
You made me laugh, you made me cry, I don't know which side to buy
Your friends, they're jerks, and when you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be
With the one I know
And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

It's awkward And it's silent
As I wait for you to say
What I need to hear now
Your sincere apology
When you mean it, I'll believe it
If you text it
I'll delete it
Let's be clear
Oh, I'm not coming back
You're taking seven steps here

The seven things I hate about you
You're vain
Your games
You're insecure
You love me, you like her
You made me laugh, you made me cry, I don't know which side to buy
Your friends, they're jerks, and when you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be
With the one I know
And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

Compared to all the great things
That would take too long to write
I probably should mention
The seven that I like

The seven things I like about you
Your hair
Your eyes
Your old Levi's
When we kiss, I'm hypnotized
You made me laugh, you made me cry, but I guess that's both that I'll have to buy
Your hand in mine when we're intertwined, everything's alright
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I like the most that you do
You make me love you

The Job or The Love?

Everyday, Edward Wahdle drives to his little cubicle in his white Ford 500. He has been working at Stuckle Enterprises for 7 years, calling investors to ask them if they would like to sponsor the company. He works hard and is very friendly towards his customers. When he gets bored with his job, he helps other with their jobs when he gets bored of his.

One day, he is walking down the fluorescent light-lit hallway to lunch when he overhears the board of directors chatting in the lunch room.

“How are we going to find a replacement developmental director in time for the new promotion? We have already interviewed all the grant managers.”

“We need someone who has been in the business for a long time. Long enough to know how everything around here works.”

“Let’s hold a public meeting tomorrow at 1pm in room 67 for anyone who would like to apply for this position. It is the our last resort.”

Edward cannot believe what he has just heard. His dream. A chance to change his life and do something instead of talking on the phone everyday. A raise. A new car. A bigger cubicle.

He runs towards his car while passing workers with boxes of files and almost hits them, squeezes right through the door that almost closed. But once he steps outside, a cyclist smash into him and they flip over and slam onto the ground.

Edward wakes up to the pretty face of his co-worker Britney.

“Hey…are you ok? I am so sorry about that,” she says.

Edward gets up on his feet while brushing his coat pretending that it was nothing.

“Didn’t feel a thing” he boasted.

“Really? Well you got knocked out for about two minutes there.”

“Oh…”
He looks up and is attracted right to her eyes where he falls in love right into the pool in her eyes.

“My Edward name is hi” he blurted.

“I’m Britney. You’re pretty funny” she laughed.

“Thank you. Um…thanks for um…helping me up and just wanted to say thanks. Uh I am Edward. I work at Stuckle Enterprises too. And just to say, I tend to babble a lot sometimes. Sometimes, I don’t even notice but yeah. I just say a lot of things. I am not as random as you think I’m. I’m not weird I swear. I just…”

“Haha. Well, is there anything I can do for you? The bruise looks pretty bad.”

“Ahh. That thing? It is no big deal. My head is rock hard.”

“You sure? Well, I would love to make it up to you. Would you like to have lunch with me? Maybe tomorrow? It is my last week at Stuckle and tomorrow is my only free day. So, my office at 1pm? Room 68.”

“Okay” he stutters.

“See you tomorrow.”

A date with Britney. Edward has not gone on a date for four years now. Everything has to be perfect.

He skips back home whistling for today has been his best day. A job opportunity and a date.

Edward halts in his tracks. “Wait.” What is he going to do? They are at the same time.

“Oh! I can just reschedule with Britney. Shoot! I didn’t get her number” he thought.

He has to think of something. What is his decision?

He can’t decide. So he decides to sleep on it.

The next day, his mind is still not made up. The town clock strikes 11am. He has no time. So he throws together an outfit and a portfolio and try to decide when he gets there.

The clock strikes 12.

In the garage his car stalls and he decides to run. The office is only 2.5 miles away. He waddles to Stuckle knocking down everything in his path. At the office, he elevator is not working. So he has to climb 12 stories. He finally gets to row of room 60s.

It is 12:57pm

He stands in front of the doors with his tie askew and his portfolio disheveled while gasping for air.

On the left, room 67: his dream. On the right, room 68: his love.

12:58pm.

He must make his choice now. This decision will change his life forever. He has to use a system that will determine this.

Eeny Meeny Miney Mo….I choose you.

He opens the door and walks in.

Nagging Story

So the assignment was to write a poem which is a list of instructions using the same 3-word phrase for each point. So i used my mom's nagging which eventually evolves into care. And the list has to eventually tell a story about their life by illustrating their daily life and characterizing the speaker and who he or she is speaking to

Motherly Love

You should always floss your teeth everyday. Not just between your teeth. But between the gums. You should always come back with an A. I don’t care if everyone else got a C too. You should always shower before 7pm. If you don’t, you are an eyesore. You should always help your brother with his homework. You should always eat in the kitchen. I don’t want stains and ants on my carpet. You should always write using your 2nd finger. Never use your second and third finger at the same time. It’s unprofessional. You should always drink milk every morning and night. You need to grow. I will not let you drive till you grow another 3 inches. You should always wash your feet before coming into the house after wearing flip flops. You are making black footprints everywhere and I am not the one who is going to scrub the carpet. You should always keep your backpack on the floor. When you put it on the bed like that, you will sleep on dirt. You should always walk with your toes pointing forwards. You are not a duck. You should always cross your legs while sitting. You are not a boy. You should stay single till you go to college. And then, it can only be a Chinese man. UGH! OK MOTHER! You should always save your money. Don’t spend it on things you don’t need when shopping. You should always buy comfortable shoes. I don’t care if it has a bow or if it’s shiny. You should always sleep before 10pm. You are a growing girl. You need 10 hours. You should always get to school on time. It is not my fault that your alarm clock didn’t ring this morning. It’s your responsibility. You should always agree with your parents. It is respect.. You should always keep your room clean and organized. You should always call me before going out with your friends. You should always stand outside of your friend’s house, mall, movie theater, etcetera when I come to pick you up so I do not spend 20 minutes looking and waiting for you. You should always do something with your life instead of being a couch potato. You should always help me instead of chatting with your friends. You should always put a pillow between you and your laptop. I don’t want mutated grandchildren. You should always play with your little brother. You should always keep track of the time. You should always plan ahead. Try a using schedule. You should always wash off your makeup before showering. It will smudge and you will look like a raccoon. You should always cook the meat before the vegetables. You should always transfer the leftovers into a smaller container and put saran wrap over it before putting it into the fridge. You should always cover your food with a paper towel before microwaving it. Don’t stand in front of the microwave. Radiation. You should always be polite towards everyone. You should always greet everyone by their name when going to a party. You should always bow when receiving a red envelope. Yes mommy. You should always listen to your music softly. You will get deaf from loud music blaring into your ears through those headphones. You will regret it when you get older. You should always walk upright. You will have back problems when you get older. You should always drink green tea for it has more antioxidants than blueberries, more calcium than milk, cancer prevention, etc. I don’t want you to get health problems like me. You should always wash your face everyday using this special face wash. Then wipe off the soap and dead skin that clogs your pores with these cotton cloths. Rinse. Then apply this expensive lotion. I don’t want you to mess up your pretty face. Thank you mommy.

10 Aspects I Love and Hate in a Guy

10 Things I Love
1) Interesting. He has more to say that “it was fine” or “yeah”
2) Liveliness. He does more than just stands around
3) Dancer/ singer. This shows that he is confident and not afraid to express himself and does not care about what others think about him
4) Dedication…to, for example, a sport.
5) Respect…for me and the things and people that I love.
6) Knows me well. The fact that he knows stuff about me just means that he takes interest in me and cares for me
7) Listener. Every girl vents. It is just how we let out stress. And if he does not care about what I say…no matter how stupid…it just shows that he doesn’t care
for me. Even if this is stress relief for me.
8) Funny. If he has no sense of humor, that really sucks
9) Supportive. Even if he this theater is boring, just don’t show it. Because I love it. And if he does not care, then it just shows that he does not care about me.
10) Truthful. Even if the truth hurts, I will rather have a mean truthful boyfriend then one who lies to me just to make me “happy”

10 Things I Hate
1) Boring. In general. Like awkward silences since he never elaborates on his “yeah” answer
2) Shy. This practically shows that he is not strong
3) Constantly criticizes others. That is just plain no.
4) Fails classes. This just shows that he does not care about school (priorities)
5) Loud in inappropriate times.
6) Never tries to talk, see, hangs out with me during our free times.
7) Does not like hugs. I’m a person who LOVES hugs. So if he doesn’t that kind of sucks.
8) Slow and oblivious. Oh my god, the number one thing on my pet peeves list
9) No manners. Like not being friendly to my friends and family.
10) “Whatever” and “I don’t care”. My most hated phrases.

8) Flipping through the TV guide and realizing that there is a CSI: Miami 10 hour marathon tonight….and knowing that I have no homework that night :)
9) Drinking, eating, licking, anything green tea.
10) Looking at the clock and realizing that 20 minutes went by and that there is only 10 more minutes of class left (oh look, how ironic)

10 Things I Hate
1) Knowing that I have tons of homework to do
2) Doing tons of little useless homeworks. Like those worksheets from EVERY class.
3) Not being able to watch a show that I have been waiting for because I have to be somewhere
4) Sitting in class and waiting till break even though its only 8:10 (1 hour and 50 minutes left to go)
5) Needing to go to the bathroom in the middle of the good part of a movie.
6) Walking into a conversation and having no clue what is going on.
7) Waking up 10 minutes earlier than my alarm clock and lying there, trying to rest, but knowing that you have to wake up in 10 minutes. So I dread those whole 10 minutes instead of sleeping.
8) Trying not to yell at my brother when he jumps on my bed when all the parts of my project is neatly organized and sorted out.
9) Having to be waken up by my parent or brother wake me up just when I was just about to fall asleep.
10) Sitting in a freezing cold room knowing that you need to be there for another 2 hours (oh look, how ironic)

3) People who make fun of theater and say that it is stupid when there are a lot of details, work, and effort that is needed to be put into it.
4) People who do not plan ahead or think about others and end up causing stress and confusion for other people.
5) People who rub in your face, indirectly, that they did not need to study a single minute to get that 105% on a test, after you told them that you studied for 4.5
hours to get that 73%.
6) People who say “whatever” and “I don’t care” a lot as well as “I don’t know” as an answer…unless they really don’t know. At least elaborate on it.
7) Dirty places with gunk and unknown objects stuck between the ground and walls.
8) People who laugh really loudly in public to get attention or people who think that they are so hot when they are clearly making a fool of themselves.
9) People who complain that Harker food sucks when we have chefs and public schools have heated up one-choice-of-pizza.
10) People who do not take responsibility for their actions, duties, promises, etc.

Color Poem

So this exercise that was in my poetry book is that I have to describe a color by a poem. I have to start each sentence with "the color of..." And the reader had to guess what the color is haha. Mine is pretty obvious.

The color of the fire truck racing through the streets.
The color of the giant “Target” sign that you can spot from the freeway.
The color of the single rose that a guy gives to his new girlfriend.
The color of the pool of corrections on an essay.

The color of the stop sign that saves a child who is running through the streets.
The color of the fire hydrant that the dog claims.
The color that tells us what temperature it is outside.
The color of the blood running through my veins.

The color of the flag that represents out country.
The color of the bright car for the new 17-year old driver.
The color of the burning passion of love.
The color of the sunset that lovers watch together.

Got any clue? hmmm I wonder.... lolol

Dance is a Sport: Sonnet

So an assignment was to turn a poem that we had already written into a sonnet. So this is my sonnet haha

Sonnets have a rhyme scheme of
abab
cdcd
efgefg
in any order of those 3.

And it has to be in some sort of iambic form. So I chose an iamic pantameter. If you dont know that is, ask me later.

Dance is a Sport

Dancers, like boxers, have to be fit.
Ballerinas have to fly across the room.
They have to portray zero gravity.
Every beat, like a drum you have to hit.
Once the music turns on , there is a sudden boom.
For Hip Hop dancers burst with energy.

Guys mock, ridicule, and make fun of it.
"Dance is not a sport, its easy"
I want to see action, not words. So try it.
After your experience, come and tell me.

You sweat like you just took a shower.
Dance teachers push you, can you take the heat?
You fail if you dont give a hundred percent of power.
Dancers actually can be stronger than athletes.

Prayer For My Brother: A Short Story

Victoria is 3 years old, 4 months, 21 days to be exact.
She is wearing her favorite Barbie pjs and watching her favorite show: Barney.
It is the episode of family and siblings.
It is now 8:30pm and the episode comes to an end.
Oh how Victoria wanted a little brother like the kids in the video.
She climbs off the bed and kneels down beside the right side.
"Dear God, I pray for a little brother"
She opens her eyes and within a second, her dad bursts through the doors.
A gush of wind blows Victoria's hair away from her face.
He scrambles around the room putting together some things in a bag.
"What are you doing?" Victoria asks.
"Your mom is going into labor" replied her dad.
"What" asks Victoria.
"Your mom is going to give birth to your little brother." explains the dad.
"A little brother? Yay! Wait. How?"
"You know how mommy's belly is so big? Your brother is in there."
"What? I thought mommy just got really fat"
"No haha. Now listen to me. Now that you are going to be a big sister, you are a big girl now and big girls listen to their parents. And I want you to stay home with grandma."
Victoria agrees.
Her father dashes out of the room.
Victoria cant beleive what she just heard.
She jumps on her bed a few times and runs to the top of the staircase.
She runs towards the highest railing and lies down.
Facing the doorway, which is right accross from the stairs, Victoria is curious in what is happening.
Mom and dad are almost at the bottom of the stairs.
Everything after that happened so fast that they were gone in a blink of an eye.
Her wish came true.


And that is a true story.

What Goes Around Comes Around

What Goes Around Comes Around
Edited: 6/19/08 10:58 PM

Love is giving someone your heart
And trusting them that they won’t break it.

I loved you

But all you did was trickme into giving you my heart.
I gave all my trust to you.
I was vulnerable in your hands.

But you think that you can turn it into glass
And throw it onto the cold, hard ground
Thinking that you shattered my heart into a thousand pieces
Which will get rid of me.

You can lock my heart into a box, bury it, and throw away the key.

You can smother my heart into the dirt and step all over it with cleats.

You can attach my heart to a lead ball and throw it down a well.

You can grind up my heart and feed it to blood-thirsty dogs.

I may have given you my heart.
Due to your clumsiness,
I deeply regret that.

When you throw it on the ground,
You will regret it.
Because my heart is made of rubber.

So when you throw it on the ground,
I will come back and smack you in the face.

So when you throw my heart on the ground,
I will come back and smack you in the face.

So don’t play with my heart.

Good riddance.

Head Over Heels

So this is a mini- short story
that I had to write for Creative Writing.
We have to creative a scenario
regarding a dead metaphor.
Dead metaphors are cliches.
Ex. slept like a baby, beauty is only skin deep, etc.

Head Over Heels

It was my first day of school.
A new fresh start.
"Im going to get all As and there is nothing to distract me"
I walked to my first class all excited and ready to learn.
New classes, new teachers, new friends.
But then,
I saw him.
He was walking to class
All cool and nonchalant.
Uh oh, Why now!?
This is going to ruin my whole academic year.
No! Dont think about boys.
Theyre stupid.
I shouldnt waste my time on them.
I mean whats so great about them?
Whats so great about him?
Besides the fact that hes super cute, very funny, totally smart.
Or that he is just perfect in every way.
Ugh! Snap out of it!
You cant afford distractions.
But he is just too perfect sigh
No. This isnt a crush.
I dont like him.
I refuse to.
Im just going to be friendly.
Oh! Here he comes. "Hey..."
I couldnt speak.
My throat shutted tight.
My heart started to pound like it is going to jump out my chest.
No No No!
This cannot be a crush.
It just cant be!
He walks right past me.
Getting farther and farther away.
Right to his girlfriend...
I just felt like he clawed open my heart and and stepped all over it with cleats.
The feeling was overcoming me!
I didnt know what to do.
I ran in the opposite direction and tripped and tumbled down the stairs.
I couldnt see anything, I was like a little kid rolling down a grass hill.
All disoriented.
Head over heels.
Ugh! What is happening to me!?
How can I be so overcomed that I didnt see a flight of stairs
I dont like him!

Dance is a Sport

Some regard it as nothing
Some, as something.

Dance is both a sport
And an art.
It can be harsh
But also sweet like a tart.

To be a dancer, like a boxer,
You have to be fit.
And every beat, like a drum.
You have to hit.

A ballerina has to be able to fly across the room
Like there is no gravity.
A hip hop dancer
Has to burst with tons of energy.

Strength is the most
Important key.
Without it,
Dance teachers will tell you to leave.

Despite its negatives,
There are a lot of positives.

When I dance,
I feel like there is no pain.
Everything is carefree,
There is no rain.

I enter a world
Of complete bliss.
I dont get discouraged
Even with one miss.

Dance allows me to
Freely express
Without any
Outside stress.

But dance is
Definitely a sport.
More intense than any other
Of its sort.

It takes up a lot of
Effort and energy.
I dont get why people
Make fun of me.

Guys make fun
of it and say that it is easy.
I would like to see them try
And then they can tell me.

They think that girls
Cant be strong
But oh how they are
So so wrong.

Some dancers are so hardcore
That they are so strong
and can beat those bullies
To the hard, cold floor.

Dance is a sport.
Dance is Love.

Free Writing

SO I made a seperate blog to store all my freewrites if you want to check it out. You dont have to. I guess you can if youre really bored or want to enter into the mind of vicky :)

Short Story

So I’m taking the Creative Writing course at Harker Summer Institute. 1 of the assignments was to write about a journey. The journey has to be literal but have an abstract meaning behind it.

So I chose the transition between Middle School to High School in term of thinking ahead to college.

So I wrote a little short story and I will explain the meaning behind it later.

**btw…this story is fictional =)**

I leave home in my sleek silver convertible to high school. I left 30 minutes earlier than usual so I knew that I have time to do whatever I want. It is hot but no too hot outside. It is windy but not to the point of discomfort. It is sunny but not irritating to the eyes. The weather is perfect. I drive at a slow leisurely pace. All the other cars pass me and I don’t care that I am slower. I have time. I see everyone else turn right to take the direct route to school. They tell me that I should do the same so that I can get to class early. But I just ignore them since that road has so many stoplights. Instead, I turn left and take the scenic route while watching the beautiful trees and flowers pass by. A pink and green picture is painted onto the windshield which is reflected from the scenery. I look out the window and see the beach. It looks so inviting. Even though it was the morning, it was bright and sunny outside and I really wanted to stop there. I entered a dreamy divagation of relaxing on the beach. I imagined the party. I was actually invited to this party. Not just any party. The party of the year. What am I going to wear? Who is going to be there? Then all of a sudden, a car honks at me. The driver yells at me that I am driving like a snail. I just brush it off because I know I have time. Then I quickly look at the clock. I am late for class. I was so busy thinking about the party that I did not notice that I am late. Everyone is probably already there. Ready to start the lecture. So I speed up. I race through the streets. I did not even stop for breakfast or to get my favorite Strawberry Frappuccino. I get all green lights. “Wow I’m lucky” I thought. I will definitely get there in time. I am only 5 minutes late. No big deal. But once I walked in, I heard the worst word that anyone can hear. “Detention.” I have to go to detention since I was late to too many classes. Not now! This means that I have to miss the beach party. I took a sharp and indrawn breath, half groan, half acceptance. If only I concentrated on my priorities. If only I did not take time for granted. Maybe I should have taken the direct route and arrived early. I would be at the beach right now with all my friends. What else did I miss out on? I do not know.

OK…warning.
The analysis of this story may cause confusion, boredom, etc.
So don’t blame me or think how I think is really weird.
Because this was just a random short story.

So the main character (the narrator) represents an 8th grade who is “waking up” and entering the “real world” and realizing that she does not have time anymore to slack off. This story was inspired by my best friend Joanna who was not waken up as early as most people. But when she did, she did the most she can to make herself better and improved a lot. Even though it was a bit late, she is excelling. She is doing much better than most people since she realizes that she has no more time to slack off. So this is a story about someone else who is not like her. And I pity the person this is. If you are, maybe this is a wake-up story for you.

So the character leaves her house (middle school) to go to high school. She thinks that she is set for her educational life in high school. So she decides to take the easier route. Since she was successful in Middle School, she feels that she can breeze her way through high school. So she takes her time and only does things she wants to do. She focuses on partying and does not give a second of thought to school. All her friends who care about her try to warn her about it (the “right turn” pun intended haha). They tell her that warn her but she just ignores them. She decides to take the easy route (scenic route) instead of the hard route (direct route) with the many obstacles (stoplights). During this long drive (the journey through high school), she just daydreams. But then a honk (loud persuasive voice…can be a parent, friend, teacher, conscience, etc.) woke her up and she realizes that she is late (this is like realizing that SATs are important mid-junior year). So she rushes to her class and gets all green lights and thinks that she is lucky (sorry but luck cannot save you here). Luck has always been with her (like in middle school). But it turns out, that luck did not save her since she is late and has to go to detention. (She wakes up late and did not go to the college of her choice). She missed out on all the fun at the party (in college) and will never know since she did not concentrate on her priorities.

yeahhhpp
so if you add that up
thats at least 15 hours of Japanese dramas
:D
and im proud!

And dont forget the hawt guys!!
Im serious..
thats all me, Steffo, and Katie talk about
...everyday BWAHAHA

I know I know
"But Vicky...arent YOU asian"
well yes I am
but I dont like Chinese stuff for some reason
Im more of a Japanese/ Korean fob
with my fellow fob friend Katie
AND WERE PROUD!!!

Colleges (Post 2)

ok I know that Im only a sophomore but I already kinda...sorta...planned out what my life (hopefully) will be....education-wise

Ok I doubt this will happen but this is what I want to do

Undergraduate:
Tokyo University
5 years instead of 4 years because
I want to take a double major of
Developmental Biology and Business Management
with a minor of
Pyschology

Graduate:
Stanford University or Yale
Finish up my business thing while interning at a bio-tech company

Then hopefully working my way up with my hot business management skills
and hopefully CEO or Manager of that place till Im about 30

Then after my parents retire
in about 20/25 years
so I will be 35/40
I will take over their restaurant
http://www.takarasushi.com
and build chains all over the US
like sushi boat
and be better than them
I mean come on
their sushi
no offense
is really bad
its not fresh and is bad quality
Im not dissing it if you like it
I acknowledge whoever is running it cause they must be really smart to create all the chains
but they need to work on the quality
Im just saying its not that best kind of sushi there is out there
and the public should deserve better
cause if it is kinda old,
then it is not as healthy, fresh, good for you as it should be
And Takara can totally kick their butt
I mean we have been the best Japanese restaurant in Santa Cruz for 15 years in a row
I feel I have bragging rights
cause my parents are AWESOME!!
and they have worked sooooooooooooo hard
So anyways
I want to do that because I dont want all their hard work to just die just because they got too old to take care of it

So that is practically what I want to do hmm
It probably might maybe change so I'll keep you guys updated haha

okey dokey artichokie lemon squeezy
later gator skater :D

Japan

and Im sooooooo excited!!
We are going to fly there by ourselves and take an intense Japanese study course.
OMG i love love love Japanese clothes, food, guys, music, etc.
Like you have NO idea how excited I am.
I still remember the beginning of the year when I first realized I have physics with Katie.
Everyday we talked about JAPAN thats ALL we talked about
im serious.
It was our dream to go there and especially together
and NOWWWW it will finally happen!!
WHOOOOOP \(^_^)/
The problem is that Katie and I are Japanese fobs.
We are obsessed with everything Japanese so all the Japanese people are going to stare at us really weirdly and go WTF
By the end of the trip, were gonna look like the people in the picture above
Anyways, just releasing some of my bottled excitement during class because I cant scream haha.
And Katie is sitting behind me so Im so tempted to get up and start dancing with her.
BWAHAH
Anywayssss yeah. we have this WHOLE plan on what to do
were gonna shop till we drop, eat till we die, and go cuh-ra-zee!!
IM SOO EXCITED DUDE
Im not going to be able to sleep the week before we go
Ugh I want summer to start because the trip is in late July.
ACK so close yet so far :'(
So we plan to do all these things:
1) Eat at Moss Burger
2) See Koda Kumi
3) Get our hair and nails done there
4) Hopefully get a Japanese LV bag
5) Buy tons of clothes
6) Eat everything
7) Ride the JR everyday
8) Talk to random strangers in Japanese
9) Learn Japanese so that were hecka good by the time we come back

Dreams

So I was reading this blog of my junior friend of her freshman (in college)'s myspace about how this guy came to her house at like 2 or 3 in the morning and whisked her away to the beach and they watched the sunrise and came back right before her parents woke up.

Ever since reading that I always wanted that :)
(lol steffo)

You know what else is really romantic?
A guy who can play the guitar/piano and sing for you
ohhhh that would be so sweet
Especially if he wrote a song for you :]

Yeah :D

Lucky

The Demon Roller coaster comes to an end.
"OMG that was so much fun!" we shout to our best friends waiting in line to go onto the ride.
"We will watch and wait for your outside"
"Okay!"
My best friend Ruhi and I go out to rest in the shady patch of grass just outside of the Demon ride.
But something doesnt seem right.
I cant hear constant screaming of the constant roller coasters racing down the tracks.
Something must be up.
I tell my friend but she just brushes it off.
But I knew something was wrong.
Then all of a sudden, we see a few park security guys walk towards the ride.
Then a flood of visitors waiting in line come pouring out of the queue.
Something has to be up.
We knew that our 2 friends were on that ride when we last saw them.
We run towards the exit of the ride but no one knew what was going on.
We saw a roller coaster car sitting on the tracks empty.
Something bad just happened.
Ruhi and I run frantically all around the coaster to see where the missing coaster went.
But we couldnt find them.
Worst of all, we were going to be on that car. Only if we went with them.

Due to the confusions of the lines, we couldnt ride the same ride as them.

I felt like it was my fault. I would have been on that roller coaster. I should be stuck there right now.
And worse, our friend Katie, who was scared of roller coasters, was on this particular one.
My heart beats faster and faster.
It feels like it was going to jump out of my chest.
Both of my friends who I consider my brother and sister was on that ride.
I felt like I was going to die.
Hearing all the spectators saying "the ride is stuck", "the car went missing", "it stopped" just made my fears worsen.
I thought that the worst has happened to them.

What if they are stuck for hours?

What if they are upside down for a long time?

What if the tracks broke and they are injured?

What if they died?

Tear felt like they were going to pour out but they never came.

I couldnt feel my legs.
5 minutes later, we hear a scream and tracks racing by.
Those short 5 minutes seemed to slow down and feel like 5 hours.
I was relieved but worried at the same time.
Ruhi and I dash to the tracks to find the passengers trembling yet happy.
Then we spot our friends.
We run towards them, right into their arms.
After everything settled, we asked what happened.
They told us that they were stuck but it could have be worse.

Then I realized.
How lucky they were.
How lucky I was. That my friends are unharmed.
I thought that the worse thing had happened to them
But luckily it was only a minor problem.

I hear all these amusement park accident stories and I never really thought about it.

"Oh, its another park story of someone getting injured"

But this incident really made me realize.
It could happen to any of us, any where, any time.
It was so scary.

So I just feel so lucky that my friends walked away from that ride without an injury but with a memory :)

Rude People

Hi you guys!

Its like 10 and i dont feel like doing hw so im going to be blogging.

You know what I hate?

People who think theyre so cool but arent.
Like they put others down, laugh really loud for attention, think they are better than everyone else, have no manners, etc.

That really bugs me.
I feel like slapping them.

If you have to know one thing about me, besides my pinkness, you would have to know that I absolutely hate these kinds of people.

You know its really crowded near the door of Dobbins right?
So today, I walked down the stairs and started to slow down at the door because of the massive crowd.
Everyone is trying to push their way through the tiny doorway and this rude girl is behind me going "MOVE IT B!TCH"
excuse me! but I cant move any faster because theres is a wall of people in front of me.
Then, after she escapes the crowd of hurrying students, she goes up to this guy, laughs really loud so everyone turns around shes likes "HAHA STUPID FRESHMEN"
-__-


yes. i know. so annoying.


Here are some of my pet peeves. And my best friends probably already figured them out during the week of Annie Get Your Gun cause i was one cranky person.


My pet peeves:
1) really slow people
2) oblivious people
3) people who think they are so good
4) rude people
5) people who have no manners or respect
6) upperclassmen who put down freshman when they dont even know us
7) people who say "whatever" or "i dont care"
8) people who dont appreciate performing arts haha
well, only if they think its stupid and easy.....its not
9) people who dont think dance is a sport
yes, dance is a sport
haha that ones not a pet peeve, just gets annoying when people think that it isnt

yeah I know...Im kinda wierd and I have harsh expectations
But thats just how I am

So Im really glad that my friends arent like that.
Because they are nice, decent, well-mannered people who respect others.
So others respect them.
So Im so proud to call them my friends :)

Yeah so that was my little rant on rude people.

remember...
Respect others and others will respect you

Things to Ponder

Just some things to think about :)

If WalMart is lowering prices daily, how come nothing in the store is free yet?

Why do you go out and spend $ to buy binoculars then go all the way up to the top of the building....just to stare at the ground.

Why are they called apartments when they are stuck together?

What's another word for thesaurus?

Is the grass really greener on the other side?

Why is it that when you see someone in a cast or a brace you say ouch?

If corn oil is made out of corn, vegetable oil is made out of vegetables, then what is baby oil made from?

Where do swear words come from?

Why does your nose run and your feet smell?

Why is it that when you transport something by car it is called a shipment but when you transport something by ship it is called cargo?

Physics with Araby: why does cyan and magenta make blue, and yellow and magenta makes red!?

Love

What is love?

This blog is dedicated to Michelle because she gave me the idea :) lol


What do we know about love?

Some people in high school believe that they have figured out everything about the opposite gender.
They think that they know everything about being a relationships.
All the Do's and Dont's.
But I think that none of us really know what love is till we find the one.
And even if we do, he or she might not even be the one.
Most of you would probably agree with me that we, high school kids, dont know much about love.
And we wont know till college or beyond.
I dont think we will ever know what true love is and everything about relationships.
Even in college and beyond.
Not that we will really know.
But no one knows EVERYTHING about relationships
you know?

Im not criticizing you if you are in a relationship and going "what the betch vicky thats so not true. me and my bf/gf are happy together and we totally understand each other and were totally comfortable with each other"
I know. I know.
I know how that feels like.
Im just stating my opinion about this whole love topic.
Not about crushes and relationships.
I mean its great when youre with someone who really cares about you and loves you.
Everything in the world feels like its going right.
And you have another happy thing to look foward to that day when you wake up :)

Im just saying....some people think they know all about it.
But love and relationships are about the ups and downs, love and loss, new and old, laughs and tears, etc.
Which are the risks yet rewards of relationships :)
OK. Im not putting down high school relationships.
Im just thinking about them
Cause theyre fun and all but i dont know.
Im not saying I regard relationships as fun and games.
Im not that mean lol
For me, I would like to be with someone who (the list below) and will support me without distracting me from my school and family life.

My Ideal Boyfriend:

• Ditch his friends for me
• Wait for me after classes.
• Spend his free time with me rather than playing blockles.
• Comforts me when Im down.
• Polite but outgoing
• Gentle and cares about my feelings
• Give me a hug or a kiss once in a while
• Listen to what I have to say...even if its venting
• Isnt pervy
• Makes me laugh when Im down. But still comforts me
• Can dance
• Dance in the middle of the hallway and doesnt care
• And then dance and sing with me in the middle of main :P
• Isnt messy and doesnt stink like a pig hahaha
• Talk freely on whatever is on his mind....even if he thinks its weird...and it probably isnt cause he cant top my wierdness :D
• Call me up once in a while to say hi (its a little gesture but means a lot)
• Not embarassed of me
• Supports me in everything I do
• Not afraid to tell me if Im making a mistake
• Will tell me the truth...even if i do look fat in that dress
• Isnt failing classes...i know...only at harker haha
• Romantic
• Fun Fun Fun
• Doesnt criticize and/or put down the performing arts
• Isnt loud at innapropiate times
• Start a convo and not try to play hard to get (-_- that really drives the girl away)

So yeah.
I dont know.
Im waiting for the right guy.
Usually great guys pop out of nowhere
"Some say that good things take time. But really great things happen in a blink of an eye"
Until then, Im going to live my life to the fullest
enjoy every single day of my awesome single life :D

So Im going to leave you guys with the wise words of Joanna:
"Were only young once...soon we will be a poop with wrinkles. We are all going to DIE and some VERY PAINFUL HORRIBLE GRUESOME DEAHTS...so savor life :)"

(btw...this blog isnt cuase im "looking for a guy" or "interested in a guy"....according to ram -__-....its just a random subject i decided to free write about so yeahpp)

Depression

Hi...again haha
wow 3 blogs in one day
I must be REALLY bored

but yeah
this time I have a point to this blog

You know how things always come back after a generation or 2 rite?
Well, the depression is one of them.
The Great Depression of the 1930s was a huge downfall for America.
The economy went down.
Many people lost their jobs.
Many people lost their lives.
It took us decades for us to recover.

In my last blog, I talked about having a flood of orders coming in
well...im back and its 8:00...
and the most orders I had today was 10 at a time..sadly
that is like 6% of our profit last year
The economy is falling quickly
and in about 5 years, we are going into a depression :(

My mom was telling me about this and how it will hit us really badly if I dont start saving $$

You probably are hearing this on the news and thinking "this is not going to affect me. it is not going to be that bad."
Thats what I thought...
Well...here is a real life example that is happening to my family right now
Along with this huge lose of income, we had to lay off half of the employees.
So I have to go work at the restaurant every weekend from now on.
We lost a lot of our customers due to their lack of wage.
We cannot freely spend money on leisurely things anymore.
We're not traveling to visit our family in Asia this summer for it is too expensive.

So next time your out shopping, think.
Do you want to spend it on that really cute bag even though you have 10 at home?
Or do you want to save it just in case you lose your house?
