Car Acident

2005-03-22T19:56:12Z

Today is the first(second) day of class for Spring quarter. And after my first class i got into a car acident... with Julie. I bumped into her after she slammed on her breaks cuz the car in front of her stopped when 2 kids ran out into the street in the rain. So yea... *grumbles* At least its crashing into someone i know, i guess. The car runs fine, her car runs fine, just that the hood is kinda tore up, my licence plate came off, and the right light is crushed. ... At least the car works fine.

wabbly couch potatoes

2005-02-23T16:08:09Z

eh. well i update on here anymore, but just making a post for myself as a marker. today i started a game called 'Yourself fitness' cuz im a lazy couch potatoe (more like lazy computer chair potatoe) and hopefully i can get more excercise and be more energized. hope i'll keep doing the workout every morning. but alas, problem in the software already, half way thru the first session the virtual trainer, maya, kinda.... froze. =x

I own the power... of COOKIES!!!!

2004-12-19T07:11:41Z

hehe didnt think this would be a topic i'd upload on DA journal. so i'll post it here.

on FFXI, xmas event, i collected 3 different kinds of xmastree and my moogle at my house went "kupo~ master, i found this!" and presented me a "special present" item. I opened it up and a little tiny santa (goblin dressed as santa) in a sleigh floats down in a rain of stars! Then slowly a little enchanted red hat appeared before me. A fantastic little hat that grants me the power of NEVER ENDING GINGER COOKIES!!! Alas it can only give me a random amount of cookies only once each day, but thats for life! so awsome ^_^.

yay cookies!

3 Day Countdown back to the States

2004-07-21T11:44:59Z

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
so.
Today~
stuff.
and more stuff...~
Talked to mom this morning. bleh.
Went to the Hong Kong Book Fair with bridget. bought things i shouldnt have bought, such as 6 more manga -_-; also got this facepaint set thingie that i'll do for kids at otakon; and a cookbook thats for healthy food that can be prepaired in very little time. Finally, bought a "Magister" hologram poster, it looks really cool even i dont quite like the series.
After lunch, i went with my uncle to shop for the digital camera, its Canon brand. pretty cool camera imo. takes pretty darn nice pictures!

tomorrow hopefully i'll get to see that new movie. Im watching Dr.Slump again. ^^ such a good anime.

man. Otakon. there are so many things to plan.
about the glitter tattoo-ness. Im thinking of making the template on clear acetate, and use static electricity to have it stick on skin. gonna try it when i get back home. for now i needa work on the designs.
*sigh*
so much to plan~ so much to do.... *screams*

only a few days left in hong kong

2004-07-20T11:46:39Z

Today, I came back to hong kong, and sent dad to indonesia. also bought him Harry Potter and the Philosophers' Stone. I wanted to get him the chinese version as well in case he doesnt understand parts of it, but he wont have it. oh well...

on my way back, went and bought this body glitter tattoo set this salesperson was trying to promote. i think its a great idea for otakon! since im going to do henna body art anyway, this would be a great addition. I will have to play around with it some more!

Heres a photograph of a free trial i had along w/ my new freakin pink hair. http://www.deviantart.com/view/9050767/

I came back to my aunt's, and man, apparently they have a lot of me and my brother's baby pictures. I was soooo cute. what the hell happened??? I uploaded one onto deviantart: http://www.deviantart.com/view/9050551/

Right now im watching Dr.Slump with my aunt and uncle. the OLD OLD version. this is definitly one of toriyama's best work!!! certainly creative as heck. too bad cuz of some 'child' (robot) nudity, it can pretty much never be on tv. but then again TenchiMuyo got on tv. they can always draw on bathing suits and change the whole story around. lol.
laaa.

the Hong Kong Anime and Manga Fair is on the same day as Otakon apparently. too bad i cant go, at least I can go to the Hong Kong Book Fair, which have lots of manga anyway.
I hope I dont overpack my luggage and get it overweight and cant ship it, lol.

I like friends

2004-07-19T10:45:41Z

Friends are awsome. I love you guys. :)

no really. I really think, that friends are so very awsome. and I thank you, shadra, brando, and anjianji.

wish i coulda read the comments sooner, since i didnt sleep much last night, kept thinking over those things over and over.
I feel much better now.

Thank you all so very much.

^_^

:D other things:
1) ... just now, dad just asked me if i like anyone, or if anyone likes me. *blinks*
2) today i went shopping for clothes, got a new coat/skirt thing, its red, and black. It is AWSOME! It matches my hair, and it looks more like a costume. For the first time in my life, i'd like to say, I LOOK COOL!
3) uhm. i was about to say something, but dad's talking to me right now, and I have forgotten what I was about to say. oh well.

I wanna go home.

yea.

I wanna spend time with my friends, my dear dear friends.
*sigh*

please, somebody...

2004-07-18T16:01:45Z

I need comfort. i need someone to say something nice to me. ease my aching heart over something so STUPID. I know its stupid, and I should stop thinking about it, but I still do. I cant help it.

So please, someone, even if its a lie, say something that will make me feel better after reading this entry:

Since yesterday, i've been feeling depressed. i dont know why, until today after lunch when I got home it gotten worse.
I bought this chinese tea set at the mall (haha, laught if you must) one because it was cheap, and second is to replace this chinese teapot my dad gotten for me when i was little since it cracked. when I gotten home, my uncle asked what i bought, and dad answered "something useless".
At that time, I was about to go out with my aunt to buy the remaining art supplies i wanted, but what he said made me so upset. I yelled "Im not going" very angrily and stormed into my room and broke down crying. they must have thought I was angry at my dad for disliking what I bought with his money, but what I actually was upset about was that it made me think he means all the things i buy w/ his money are "something useless".

So after crying for a bit, i quited down. but even more upset, becuase while i was crying, i was thinking about the reason why Im there. I felt bad about being angry at him, but then I felt more depressed when I thought about what I mean to him. Was I just someone for him to spend money on, and to take care of him when he grows old? He said he misses me on the phone, but when Im here, he does nothing. All he says to me is to go buy stuff with my aunt. and the things he want. but not once has he even asked how I was, all these years.
The more I thought, the angrier I became. All I am, is a burden on his wallet now, just so I will go take care of him when I get a job. He even said that he is really worried that no one will care for him when he gets even older.

So I went to his room, and threw the wallet he gave me at him, crying "I'm giving your money back so I wont buy more 'useless things'". and ran back to my room.

after crying for a while longer, and thinking a while longer, I went and called my uncle to tell him not to get me the new digital camera.

And getting even more angrier, I stormed back to his room, and gave him the HKD$3000 he got me yesterday, yelling "I dont want your money". and went back to cry.
I was really upset. I was even more upset that being such a bratty little kid, he still doesnt say anything, neither comforting, nor upset. I want some attention. I came here, to spend time with him. At least give me some attention, even if its to yell at me, I'd feel better.

about 10 minutes past, and still no one came to my room. thus I gave up and went to his room, sat by his bed, and stared at him. He was confused about why I was so upset. He tried to explain what he meant was that chinese tea pots are cheap and I shouldnt buy it, I'll probably get it for free if I bought tea from some stores. So I poured my heart out, telling him Im not really upset about that, but that does he actually miss me and care because I dont see it.
well anyway, to make a long story short (since i still havnt gotten to my POINT yet), i wasnt angry at him any more, and I asked him to go with me to go buy the art supplies.

Before going to the store, he have to go to the ATM for some cash cuz we're goign to dinner afterwords. After going to 2 ATMs, both machines not working, we gave up and went back, deciding to ask my aunt or uncle for some money.
and guess fucking what?
my dad droped his wallet.
The wallet, with my fucking HKD$3000 in it.
thats like. USD$350.
THREE HUNDRED FREAKIN DOLLARS DOWN THE FUCKING DRAIN!
I really shouldnt be that upset, because I gave it back to him, and its not mine to begin with. BUT DAMn. It still breaks my heart that there goes that much money!
fuck!
if I wasnt so pissy at him i wouldnt have given him that money back, thus he wouldnt have lost his fuckin wallet!
ARRRGGHHH!
What pisses me off even more, was I TOLD him, to watch his wallet, because I felt like people were watching us at the ATM (or my FLAMING PINK HAIR) but still! I told him, to be careful. Instead, he loses his freakin wallet.
I even WATCHED him put his wallet into his pants' pocket! How the fuck did he drop it?! I was too busy looking to see if there were people following us to watch him!
GOD DAMNIT!
its MONEY! I dont care if its not my money, but its MONEY! I cant get over the fact that there went fucking 3 thousand dollars! ARRRGGGHHHH >_<
It just really pisses me off! Im not depressed any more, just fucking pissed off!

So yea.

PLEASE someone think of something to say to ease my aching heart over something this DUMB and sTUPID!

And they say the chinese are conservative...

2004-07-18T02:47:02Z

I walked by a store on a main street w/ my aunt and I couldnt believe what I was seeing: A whole wallfull of beautifully displayed dildos.
...
and they say the chinese are conservative people..... riiiiight.

of course, i didnt say anything and kept on walking as if i didnt see anything.

Back to the hair:
Ok, Im more used to the hair now after going to bed early last night. cried my heart out (no not cuz of the hair) to sleep, I feel much better now.

... now about my f***ing hair, i really like the hair style, dispite that I think it makes my face look fatter than before, and that I think I look better w/o glasses w/ this hairstyle.
...and the color..
oh the color...
... I've decited to call it, Cutie Honey Pink. cuz thats what it reminds me of. *shudders*

Also, with this hair, im thinking of doing a 'dark/punk sakura' cosplay. Sakura as j-rocker? hmmm... scary. i want a slug. ... i hate slugs. maybe i'll be lina inverse (j/k). but still i want a cool costume to go w/ my hair, but now that i think of it, theres not a single anime character w/ hair like mine. wtf? (maybe except for cutie honey AHHHH!)

also, because of my hair, i want a whole new set of clothes to go w/ the hair, cuz my current 'style' of clothes soooo doesnt go w/ it.

oh, and why dont i dye it darker again? cuz i hate doing so many things to my hair at the same time, it damages it sooooo much. maybe when i get back to the states i'll get a blue hair dye and make it more purple, or something, or it'll just turn into a ugly mess. =_-;;

sigh.

oh yea, i think im getting a good digital camera now. something about 28mm and 5megapixel or something. @_@; i know absolutly nothin about cameras.... my uncle's a camera nut, and he told my dad he should get me a new one after seeing my current digital camera (which isnt even mine, its my brother's) and so dad agrees to buy me a $500 camera. I'd perfer a A3+ size printer actually.... but since im a greedy person, i wont complain. I'll just ask mom for the A3+ size printer *grins*

My hair... is freakin HOT PINK!

2004-07-17T08:38:13Z

RARRRrrrr! im very pissed off right now. Just got my hair dyed (havnt done that in about a year). I wanted Purple, w/ red highlights, but instead i got Magenta w/ hot pink highlights! >_< GIMME MY HAIR BACK!!!!! also got a perm (or should i say my hair got permed? hmm... how do u use that word anyway?) so my hair is freakin straight. ...
and pink.

PINK
FUCKING GOD DAMN PINK! I HATE PINK!!!!!! AHHHHHH

sigh.

in other news, im in mainland china, dad's gone for his daily massage, and im on a fucking 56k modem thats actually moving at 33k. fucking piece of SHIT.

..
AHHHHGGHHHH MY HAIR!

(note: this will probably be one of the few few times i'll bitch and moan about my hair)

Day I-Give-Up-Numbering.

2004-07-13T01:10:18Z

i really should update and say whats been happening, but i dont wanna think about it. but still, i'd say some things...

summery of vacation:
Day1- longass trip to california, went to stupid beverly hills, the chinese theatre, etc. etc. =_=; i didnt really find anything interesting, and damn the old chinatown SUCKs sooooo much.

Day2- Disneyland and Anime Expo. disneyland is sooo small o_o; most of the stuff i've played before at disneyworld, so after spending 3 hours there, i went to Anime Expo instead. and spent too much freakin money. their cosplay was awsome, very worth the wait! my fav was of course the rose of versailles (jar-jaeyes to some of my friends).

Day3- Road to Las Vegas! stupid driver got lost, tour guide have no clue wtf is a rest stop! but there was a shop at a outlet mall that sold very yummy corndogs (and the cheese-corndogs are delicious!) Las vegas was pretty cool. I'd love to go there again, mainly cuz i wasnt allowed to gamble when i was there. (must be 21+) Sooo many neat hotels.

Day4- Grandcanyon, hoover dam, and more las vegas. I got to take a lot of great pictures, also wasted a lot of my mom's money to go, lol. oh well. i'll get a big print of the better pictures i took and give it to her as a gift i guess! At night,went to see a show called Splash, which had singing, dancing, topless girls, magic show, comedy, etc. it was ok, what i realy really wanted to go see that day was Zumanity tho. a erotic circus solei (sp) show. oh yea, and i thought they were pretty famous, but DT never heard of them @_@;

Day5- Universal Studios was pretty much the same as the florida one, but much smaller. I went on their new Mummy ride, was pretty cool! too freakin shorter than usual tho! I also made a friend from the tour. I mean it was on this day that we actually talked even tho i've seen her since the beginning of the trip. Her name's Joyce, she looked my age, but is apparently 22, and she lives/works in England!

Day6- we got up very late, and almost missed the bus to the airport cuz the freeeekin morning call was silent. I've never had a morning call where the person didnt speak after calling, thus i thought someone dailed the wrong number and went back to sleep.

Day7- got back to hong kong at night. this is pretty damn bullshit for a day included on vacation, cuz we basically used 2 days to get back! gimme back mah money!

Two Days ago Dad's coworker/friend invited us for Dim Sum. He's known my dad for a very long time, and he has a son thats about half a year younger than I. We used to play together whenever our family go on vacation. His name is Chi-Yang, but now he goes by "Gavin". Its been about 5-6 years since i last saw him, man hes taller than me now ;_; (well duh, hes a guy) it was pretty cool seeing him again, we talked the whole time instead of eating, lol. apparently he went to Washington state for senior year, and is now trying to go to HKU or some good university in the US. I invited him to come visit him if he does visit the east coast :) itd be neat, we had a very long converstion about the different dilect in the US vs. England and all the other english speaking countries, lol. Gavin is probaly the only childhood friend i have outside my family, known him since kindergarden or first grade, @_@ dont remember...

Well today i gotta go take dad to the hospital for his checkup, then go w/ him and aunt into mainland china until july 20th. Hes going to Indonesia on that day. oh, and i lost my passport! but I just found it again! so I gues that means i didnt lose it ^_^ yay.

but since i will be in mainland china for the next week, i wont be updating much, and since im coming back on the 23rd, that leaves me 2 days in HK to do final shopping stuff! AHHH! @_@; dont have enough time!!! oh, and apparently i have bought too many manga already @_@; so i'll just buy one more volume of the Tsubasa, perhaps one more of Rave, else my luggage will go overweight!

Speakong of manga, did you all know that the manga artist for NARUTO has a BROTHER?!?!?! o.O he did the new hit "Satan 666" and the style looks pretty much JUST LIKE NARUTO! only thing is, this guy cant draw as good as his bro, lol. his stuff is very influenced by Toriyama tho, not really as original either, but still pretty fun to read, I'd recommend renting it if u have the chance, but its not really worth buying imo. (i flipped thru volume 4 of it, and theres this guy that looks JUST like Yondaime (the 4th hokage)!

ok, gotta go shower and get ready before they call and hurry me again @_@.
probably no updates till i get back to the states. so Ja ne~!

Day 33.

2004-07-10T16:26:19Z

yay artist alley tableness!~ and i have nothing to sell! yay!
