happy new year's eve

2009 is gone now

we're in the... tens? teens? the somethings...

ah 2010, you sneaky little bastard. i didnt even see you coming.



shall i take a look back at 2009?
a year of firsts...
and of change, i guess?
who would have thought, in say early 2008, that i would be this person?
yes, change is an accurate description.
month by month the future approaches, steadily... as if i should be prepared for it.
whoops.


thanks to everyone who made 2009 what it was...
i'm looking forward to what 2010 will bring with you all.

it seems

that there really are timelines for relationships.

i can't remember the exact quote, but there's a scene in "How I Met Your Mother" where someone (I think Barney) is telling someone else (let's go with Ted) how there are certain points in a relationship where people break up:

1st date
2 months
7 months
2 years
20 years
and till death do you part.

well... my past two relationships have ended at the second and third option so the theory feels pretty solid from my end...




lets just hope that there's not too many option ones before option six.





























god i hate break ups.

i...

have to pee. :]

secret santa

our floor is doing a secret santa. and i know most everyone really well... like i'd have a gift idea under 10 bucks for each and every one of these lovable folks.
but of course, the person that i get is the person that i have talked to like what. twice? in all the time we've lived here. -_-"
yay for picking out of a hat.


we'll see how that goes.

i'm taking math pass fail.

and i might fail it.

so i should be doing work

because tomorrow i have a ten page project thinger to turn in with additional pages for appendix, and lots of additional pages for field notes that i did not type up.
and i am only on page six.

and on wednesday i have a midterm in psych that i have to read around 2-300 pages for and go over many many past midterms to prepare.
and i also have two quizzes/hwk assignments due in math on wednesday. but i'm probably not going to have time for that so i am going to just give up since that particular class does not count for anything at all ever. (pass/fail! yay!)




but for the past hour i think i have been sitting here coughing.
and reading blog posts cuz i havent been on in a week or two.

but mostly coughing.





ugh.

i discovered last night that nyquil does not work for me.
wonderful.

i hate damp clothes

my sleeve is damp.
my jeans are damp.
my shirt is damp.

damp.







thank goodness for long socks. ^^

i've been eating ramen way too often

and hot cheetos. and chips. and cookies. and chocolate. and mike and ikes. and french fries. and shit....

i am sooooooo going to get fat this semester. T-T


in other news, i got two B's on my midterms (still dont know how the third one turned out).
i keep skipping lectures/discussions.
didnt go to any classes on thursday, and i almost got to class this morning, but i had to come back to let audrey into our room.
and then i fell asleep and didnt go to math discussion.



in other other news my ear hurts.
because i pierced my cartilage. and my right lobe.
but only the cartilage one hurts. every time i touch it (which i do a lot because i push my hair behind my ear and i happen to graze the back of the earring. which hurts).

just a quick update. :]

oh and emotionally i feel a bit frazzled.
just because i know i should be feeling something, but i dont.
i feel so apathetic about everything...
:/
i think that's a symptom of depression, but i am not depressed. dont worry.

sometimes i get angry for no reason

it's not justified....

usually there is a reason actually, but its oftentimes very small.

and i overreact.

k at first that was out of frustration, but after a while it just got fun. ^^

im in antho lecture

he's so boring.


cept he'd suck at pictionary for sure.
...
sorry professor, but you probably know it's true.






"you all feel inherently alone, i know it"

wow professor, you're so deep. :]

wednesdays really are a hump.

so this week started out crappy.

I had been feeling lonely and weirdly sad for a while, but it was a no biggie kinda thing so I just kinda dealt with it for a bit, but then..........

Sunday was just a bad day in general. not helped by the fact that i didnt shower in the morning so i was half asleep all day long.
Monday was bad cuz i did poorly on my anthro presentation and i missed the first lecture of a decal that i am waitlisted for. number #16 on the waitlist. which makes me nervous that i wont get into that decal and i wont have enough units. which might effect the chances of me being able to transfer to Letters And Sciences next semester. because right now i have only 11 units. :O
Tuesday was bad because I lost my keys that morning, and my id card.
And I also just felt bad this week because I am behind in my readings for anthro, i can't study for my psych class because I dont have a textbook yet, and I havent been doing so well in math so far. (we've had two quizzes in math and i got 45% and 65% on those. sucky.)
anyways, i just felt crappy in general...

but now i am happier.

all that happened to change all this bad mojo pervading my aura (sorry, had to throw in some hippie talk to fit in with the locals) was my keys!
so i lost my keys tuesday morning. but not just my keys. i lost my lanyard thing which had both my keys and my id card on it. so i was stressing a lot for like a day...

and then THIS morning i went to the lost and found at the police dept.
annddddddd...........


it wasnt there. :[

BUT i went to the id card office place thinger to cancel my meal points so that no one could like.. swipe it and eat my foood for freeeeee. D<
and the lady asked for my id #
and so i told her
and then she was like

"oh, actually some one turned it in"

O.O


sooooo awesome.

so even though all those other crappy things are still happening and i should still be worried about them, i got super dooper happy. just cuz of some keys!

the middle of the week sure is nice. :]

Officially the QUEEN of Nerd-dom

I have learned how to solve a rubik's cube.




And i can't seem to stop. :/

what's this? a post?!

hello blogging community. :] long time no talk.

so lets talk.




berkeley is cool beans.
not hot ones.
cool ones.
our floor has crazy floor pride. we are ordering t-shirts. and we hang out in the hallways, just sitting around and chatting.
we had a capture the flag game against 3rd/4th floors yesterday.
it was funny how intense those people got about it, considering the fact that they outnumbered us 2:1 and were winning. no not even winning, they won 2-0. and yet, i think our side cared less when they broke a rule or something.
speaking of winning, saturday was the first cal football game. i didnt actually go, but game days are fun i think. lots of people show up dressed in paraphernalia, and the celebrating in general is fun. i'm pretty sure there were illegal fireworks at more than one point.
food here is eh. its kind of fun to get something that looks like one thing, only to sample it and find out that it's totally something else. ^^
actually i need to rephrase that. the dining halls here are eh. the food around here is bomb. but i feel dumbtarded spending money when i already have a million and a half meal points to spend on university food. :[
and speaking of the university...
i am taking math 1B (second semester calc i guess...), chem 4a (chemistry on steroids), chem c96 (seminar), and anthropology 4ac (satisfies a certain requirement. already have a presentation thinger).
math is hard. i didnt take BC, so the pace we are going at is kind of difficult. especially since the problem sets are really challenging. audrey seems to be doing ok, so i can ask her stuffs... but i hate to bother her about it.
chemistry is also hard. i'm learning the basics of quantum mechanics right now. it pisses me off that they spent years and years trying to teach us shit that is WRONG. yes, all the chemistry that I learned that has heretofore attempted to explain the structure of an atom is bullpoop.
(speaking of poop, the dining commons food here totally makes you poo in large quantities and at fairly reliable intervals. strange, but not entirely uncomfortable). Also, the lab that goes along with this class (4 hours long), is frikken hectic and tiring.
seminar is whatevs. minimal effort. drove me bonkers trying to find a research project tho. only requested to join one... still havent heard back.
anthro. interesting class... but the professor talks really weird. he uses such high level vocabulary and convoluted sentence structure that it took me a while to realize that usually he's just saying the same thing over and over again in more eloquent/concise/beautiful ways. its a pleasure to listen to and hell to take notes.

so far audrey and i have been spending a lot of time together.
not sick of her yet... but i'll keep you guys posted if anything develops. xP haha

what else can i tell you guys...
i think i am going to switch out of CoC. i dont really like chemistry that much... i like writing better in fact. and as such i just might change my major to some humanity or something. :O shocking.

lol. just went off an an hour long tangent looking up majors and requirements and whatnot...
thinking of either psychology or religious studies. ^^ cool.

anyways... i guess this is enough for now. ^^ sorry it took me so long, but i didnt forget you guys. really. i promise. ^^

much love from norcal!
x3

perhaps everyone has died

or perhaps they are all busy.

in any case i feel sad.

i wish i wasnt off by a couple hours still... my sleeping patterns are getting more and more normal... but i'm still awake/asleep at odd times. if i wasnt off, perhaps i could spend more time with you fantshmastic people.

perhaps i'm liking the word perhaps a bit much.

good bye for those who are leaving soon, and i hope you come back with good stories.

korea is humid!!

and i have discovered that i'm a really really sweaty person. xP ick.

i cant wait to get home...
not only do i miss you guys, but i'm kinda getting sick of my familia.

baaaaaaaaaaaah.
korea is lame~!!!!
i have no one to hang out with, i'm all sweaty, and the food isnt even super delicious. :[ i want mexican food! T-T

man i sound complain-y.

but yeah. america the beautiful for sure.

side note:
i saw a guy at itewon wearing a shirt that said "God Bless Korea" really big. for some reason.. i think that's funny.

i really need

to stretch.

i wish i could touch my toes so bad.... :[

i have a crush on a girl but shes buddist and im christian, will it still work

you know the auto complete stuff?

i wrote "i have" in the box, and that (^) is what it completed as.

my brother has a crush on a buddhist! oO;; hahaha!

i have bug bites coming out of my ears.
(that's what the title was supposed to be)

there is one on the topmost joint of my left ring finger, and my finger has swollen so much that i cannot bend it without feeling like my skin is going to pop. ow.
my arms, hands, and legs are itchy. itchy itch itch.

and my aunt is kind of crazy. she's stubborn too. we're trying to explain something to her, and we did it like ten times... and she keeps saying the same thing over and over again. ah wellz....

itchy.....

itch itch itch itch.

someone asked me

when i'm going to be available for hanging out in korea.

i have asked.
and the answer is this:

starting from june 2nd or 3rd.


which means that for the rest of the time, i will be sweating and walking and sight seeing and saying ooh and aaah and taking generic tourist photos and hopefully some not so generic photos for your viewing pleasure. which means i will not have the time to be meandering seoul with my buddies. :[

ah wellz. i will miss you all immensely.

as soon as i get some contact information, i will let you know my contact information ^^

x3

hahahaha

everyone's posts are like bullets.

super fast and short. =]

or like a dwarf breaking the sound barrier, whichever image suits you.





i'm back from berkeley y'all. and i'm sure you missed me. i haven't adopted hella yet, but apparently i will. dont shoot me. with your bullet entries. hahaha. ^^

i have enrolled in classes, and the future doesnt look so fun. but we'll see. it'll probably be a blast. =]

thank goodness i wont be lonely with audrey around.

no one's posting...

so i'll post.

i miss you all!

this hotel room is big and empty with just me and my dad.
i have to wake up super early in the morning and so i should sleep soon, but my daddy is using the bathroom so i can't wash up for bed.

i am going to be so sad if this is how college is going to be. hopefully there will be some ok people that i can make friends with. i hope the same for you guys. =]

goodnight!

puhrom

So.

sabrina and audrey came over to get ready, which was fuuuun ^^

ashley came by, and we marveled at the beauty of her hair. sooo cool. heehee

sayo came and brought her straightener for sabby.

i did audrey's makeup! hahaha i never did that for anyone else before, so i was proud at how it came out. and sabby did audrey's hair and it came out really really nice. ^^ so happy.

went with sabby to her house while her mom fussed at us in korean. hhahaha poor jeff. he was like.. ok.

went to mikie's house and took a bunch of pictures... i managed to not make faces for the parents, but the rest of the time i was back to ugly expressions.

mmm then took off in the sexy convertible. once we got there we had to find the parking lot. the lady talked really fast, but we used team work to recall what she said and found frankenstein. i hadnt been to universal in a really really long time (like since i was four) so it was cool to see it again.

the place was nice, and people were all dressed pretty.

dk and i scraped money together to pay for pictures and then went in to eat. garsh it was sooo yummy. ^^ but i got full surprisingly quickly.

then we went and got a caricature. that was funny =] i think it was pretty accurate heehee.

karaoke was fun sometimes and then really horrible other times.

and then we danced.

which was sweaty and hot and i dont even know. =] but fun. it was kind of awkward actually, since we were all in a circle kind of staring at each other. lol.

once we started dancing, the night went pretty fast. break for drink once in a while, but the hours just passed really fast.

and then all of a sudden, the bass stopped pounding, the lights came on, and sayo and i sang along to the love song while security calmly but sternly ushered us out of the area.

dk and i sped past jeff and sabby on the escalators and then we got back in the car to go home.

i experienced 110 miles per hour as we went dooooown and then UUUP again (the freeway had a dip). that was fuuun =]

fell asleep on the way back i think, cuz we got home surprisingly fast.

then i showered and went to sleeeeeeeeeep.

all in all 

fun.

it's over...

which will make prom fucking awkward.

nomnomnom ^O^

my laptop is fixed... so the only reason i havent been posting is because i've been lazy.

the weather has gone wacko lately... what's with the rain eh? Thor is obviously unhappy. (actually there's no thunder/lightning so maybe not Thor)

mmm... lately john and i have both been stressed. i'm not sure if we're helping each other or contributing to the stress. i take that back. i know that he is causing me stress in general, but talking to him helps me relieve stress since it's funny and light for now. i dont know about his side.

i'm thinking that saturday is going to be hectic. i promised my brother i'd take him to go see Up tomorrow, i want to go to kina granis and get my ipod looked at up at the apple store, and i was gonna have a heart to heart with john at one point. hrm... i dont know how that's going to work out.

the end of high school has been making me think of a lot of lasts....
last homework assignment
last test
last project
last school get together
last class party
etc.

it makes me sad.


i really dont want to write that speech for english.
guh.

Kina Granis

who wants to come with me?

hasta la vista, baby.

i'm going camping!

it looks like i wont have a lot of fun... but oh wellz.

hopefully i come back stress free ^^

talk to you guys when i get back okieday?

sorry...

it's been a while.

lately i've been on an emotional rollercoaster. there might be another stomach ulcer headed my way.

going to two proms is expensive. and headachey.

my laptop chord has officially died. so i have to buy another one. but until i do there will be less and less computer-ing for me... so expect long silences between posts.

and since long silences mean an overwhelming amount of information to post (i'm not good at filtering important and unimportant information) my posts will be shorter.

and randomer.

i HATE spending money. shitake mushrooms on a cabbage patch. frickety frick frick frick.

and i'm sick of people talking crap to me about stuff they dont even know. eff you, you nosy people. eff. you.
unfortunately no one that that was directed towards reads my blogs... or perhaps fortunately.





what classes should i take? i'm thinking comparative lit. but that sounds like a lot of work. T-T oh well. i will take it! maybe. SHIT i have a lot of reading to do. fucking class schedules.












gah.

reunion

hahahaha

i laugh as fellow ap lit people cringe.

but yeah, it's been a while, oh blogger. i missed your aesthetically pleasing efficiency. your color scheme, your amorphous B surrounded in a citrus tribute to cubism.

ok it's hard to write like that.


so these past few days have been splendiferous. ^^

friday was interesting.
i was super tired, but i had to go take some kid to church, so i drove up to pv to pick him up, drove to yogurt island area to drop him off, and then was on my way home.
but then i remembered that sayo wanted a hotdog.
so i went to costco.
they're surprisingly popular for dinner on friday night.
i stood in line for 20 minutes and then drove the hotdog to sayo's house.
by then i was dead, so i went home and wanted to crash.
but my family had to eat dinner. so we ate... and then!
we watched that leaked version of x-men 4. that was a surprisingly good movie. i enjoyed myself.
then i really was about to die, so i slept.

saturday was fun. went shopping with my parents... my dad is a funny shopper. he goes off while my mother and i are browsing and comes back periodically with suggestions for us to consider. it's really funny. he likes j.lo's earrings. ^^ and jessica simpson. hahaha.
came back home and got asked to prom by a special someone. i wont tell you how though because it's a secret that only boys are allowed to tell.
then went to the mall and saw startrek with john, andrew, audrey, alex, and ray. it didnt seem like ray was there though cuz he sat so far away and i didnt get to talk to him before or after. andrew took off pretty quickly, so the rest of us went off in search of mother's day presents. we bought shamwow imitations instead. then we were hungry so we went to go eat.
alex went home though.
went to some banks so that we could get money, and met up with greg jones. went to corner bakery, then rented stepbrothers from blockbuster and watched it at greg's house. pretty dumb movie. gotta say.

sunday....
went to church after breakfast at carl's. oh i love those breakfasts.
got locked out of our car in the morning.
did the church thing. had a church picnic afterwards.
went home earlier than the fam. spent the afternoon vegging on the couch with top model.
had dinner, proceeded to re-veg.
then john came over and ate and watched with me. lol.
i paid him, fed him, and then he left. pretty much.
all that was missing from this being a truly abusive relationship was sex and violence.
ah well. it was mother's day after all.
and dont judge me! i'm going shopping with my mother later this week so that we can get her something nice for mother's day. its not that i forgot, we just didnt have time. garsh.

my fingers are burning

so basically my laptop's power chord is ripped in half. so my dad put it back together again with aluminum foil + tape.
definitely a fire hazard.

but problem: it doesn't charge unless i hold it in place.

hence, my fingers heat up. because the cord heats up. because it lacks insulation. because tape transfers heat surprisingly well.



just in case i die early in a tragic fire, i request epitaph drafts to be left in the comment section. ^^ just for fun.

huh.

it's may.

how weird.

as i sit here

wasting time on what is probably man's greatest invention...

i got to thinking.

and then i freaked out and stopped myself cuz i started to feel like fucking Marlow. O.O

lit today ate me. alive. and i screamed and screamed but no one seemed to hear me. and lit certainly didnt care. gobbled me up without batting an eyelash.

the horror indeed.

God

fucking damnit.

bleepity bleep bleep bleepen.

pocket full of sunshine

so i've had that song in my head.

and i dont know the lyrics. only that one line "i've got a pocket, got a pocket full of sunshine... ooowoaaaah"

dont you hate when that happens?

well it's been a while since i have updated...

saturday was kind of busy, but then there were random boring bits.

woke up and drove my parents to long beach port... its' really confusing there. i didnt follow the signs as well as i should have, so i'm sure that a lot of people were frikken pissed at me... but its ok. i didnt hit anyone... maybe just cut some people off. :/

drove home by myself (i wont see them again for a week! T-T i need someone to help me with a video thing and sending it to my parents somehow.... if anyone knows anything about technological stuff stuffs.)

took my brother to hakwon
came back home and ate lunch.
picked him up from hakwon.

started to listen to the canterbury thing. dude. they have the best accents. i wish i was british.

took my brother to his guitar recital. he did really good for his first recital ever. it was cute, he kept saying how nervous he was. hahahah. and his hands were all sweaty and like yeah. hahahah. but yeah, there were a bunch of really cute little kids. ohmaigoshness. SO CUTE. with their mini guitars for small people and... awwwwwwwwwwww! ^^ there was also this kind of loud toddler in the audience, and for the first guy he was like "let's go! you can do it!" and when the teacher was like, who's next? the kid said "ME!" hahaha it was cute.
anyways, sat there for like three hours. they had yummy pizza and refreshments. i felt refreshed. except my brother brought perrier to drink cuz he thought it was ginger ale. it wasnt. we dont like carbonated water. blegh.

thennnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
came home and asked sayo to come over and jacuzzi with me. she came at like seven, we chilled and talked and marveled at the steam that came off our feet when we stuck them out of the water. i jumped from pool to jacuzzi a couple of times cuz i was getting overheated. it was nice, even though there were weird college kids smoking and drinking and stuff overhead.

sayo and i got hungry, so we came back to my house and dried off (i took a really fast shower) and made neoguri ramen. it was yummy. sayo even ate it with kimchi even though she doesnt eat spicy food! so proud! ^^

watched blues brothers. which was fun. they're so unfazed by everything. hahaha "We're on a mission from God."

then sayo went home and i finally talked to john after like.. two days of not knowing if he was alive or not.

sorry for the hiatus once again. i'm sure you missed me as much as i missed all of you.

britain's got.... ugly people

it's an undeniable fact. (i'm sure everywhere else has a lot of ugly people too, but over there it's just more stereotyped.)

yesterday i woke up and forced myself to go to school. did the whole learning thing (or pretending to learn). perhaps i'll mention some highlights since no one talks about their day in depth anymore.

mmmm...

OH. i ate a chocolate majigger in gov because Greg Jones won the price is right game and shared his wealth.

had a drill thing... walked to the blacktop after chilling under the table for a bit.
bought a bracelet from trisha cuz i felt bad for her.

mmmm... watched mythbusters in physics. that was fun ^^ oh those mythbusters. they have such fun with explosions and toys. i totally could see alex being like them when he's older. like... just finding joy in things like hovercrafts and elevators being dropped.

and then... i hung out at sayo's for a bit. we got Rugalah. not Arugula, which is green and leafy and probably vitaminy, but Rugalah, which is sugary and buttery and probably fat-y. yum.

took my brother to hakwon, came home and watched cupid. (i think its going to become one of my regular shows. ^^ i love that show. it makes me feel good.) loafed for a while. ate dinner with family and then walked over to sayo's.

studied math despite more than one distraction. ate padthai and got irrevokably distracted. brain got fried and i took the wrong partial and tried to integrate and did it WRONG. T-T but that's to be expected.

audrey's mommy dropped me off at home while we tried to convince audrey to come to berkeley with me. the best school ever. ever. if you're reading this audrey. ever. like.. seriously. sooo cool. only cool people go there. cool people. like me. and you. ever.

and then watched britain's got talent for like two hours. hahaha. those brits. i think simon cowell is much nicer to people from his homeland. unless american idol forces him to be mean for the sake of ratings. in any case he was a lot nicer. not a lot. but noticeably so. saw some crazy stuff, and some cool stuff, and some really good stuff.

awwwwwwwwwww yeeeeyuh. lol that was random.

then john called and we talked for a bit until we got sleepy and then i went zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

when you reach a certain point

of apathetic overload....

school just doesnt seem important anymore.

so i didnt go.







sorry if you missed me. i really did have a headache, but mostly i just couldnt bear the thought of another day at the madhouse.

who wants to help me study for multi?

onward!

on to monday!

(sunday stuff happened, but not a lot)

monday....

woke up... alex arrived while i was about to take a shower, so he fell asleep on my couch while i got ready.
did some research while people arrived, got directions and gave music to alex. audrey played piano, andrew ate fatty muffins, and sayo giggled ^^ john arrived, changed, and we were off!
droooooooooooove to santa monica. didnt get lost too badly, but there was a bit of traffic. scared john a couple times... but i got this yo. found parking... walked around and stuffs. went into famima, ate some stuffs. went into z gallerie. omg. that couch. soooo comfy.

proceeded to urban, then on to pinkberry (five dollar bathroom break yo. damn.), also went to h&m... only place anyone bought anything.
went down to the beach. john found a top. ^^ there was a cool mold thingie that would give you the layout of LA if you rolled it across the sand. i wanted to roll it. i dont think it's possible/allowed though.
walked to the water, which was really pretty and clean! and the sand was nice. buried alex's feet. =] saved a ton of lady bugs. they were all wet. and john thinks they have ugly faces. maybe even fugly faces.
walked back to the car (people bought pretzels and things along the way).
drove to lacma, got lost and there was traffic.
browsed through and saw fantabulous art. i got super excited at the maze thing. like suuuuuper excited. i started rolling on it. ^^
japanese art is great, and i like the horizon one. diamond canvas with blue half and white half.
and i want to get a giant balloon dog.
then went to ethiopian food. JOHN IS AN AMAZING PARKER. lol. ^^ that food was exciting too. although i think i was too tired to fully appreciate it. and my hands smelled like it forever.
then went to milk. i think i would cross the country for one of those brownie sundaes. it was fabulous.
then john drove us home and dropped everyone off. we were all dead tired. and so john almost fell asleep at my house. but he didnt. he went home. then fell asleep i assume. so then i fell asleep.

whew. i spent a lot of money that day. but it was fun. =] good birthday.

oh gosh

i'm eighteen now! oO;;


saturday was fun fun fun.

woke up and called peoples to tell them to come earlier...
called sayo and went over to her house to work out the grill sityation. that thingie actually fit in my car! ^^ craaaaaaazy! went to the park and found out that my daddy had been there since uber early in the morning. also, there was a tent. pwahahhaa. my auntie kept saying that whenever my family goes somewhere it's like we're moving. ^^ who else wants to live in the park with me? ^^

sayo and i waited and waited for people. we found a tarzan tree and a wedding hall and a stage (recited our shakespeare, we were actresses for a minute). walked down to the beach and then saw some oddly walking children headed our way. sabby and audrey were imitating a sign they saw of a woman walking with her arms out behind her and her chest thrust ahead. it was amusing.

walked back to the park for some hot dogs, which were piled with grilled onions, bell peppers, and mustard (we also found some in n out ketchup packets in the car). soooo good. i had two. actually i think everyone had two. then we wanted more, but my mom started yelling about how there would be really good food in a minute so we should wait. we sat and sunscreened our selves. then ate. omg. it was delicioso. my cousin came and brought candy, which melted :[

went back to the sand and played twister. i failed. hahaha. shared a towel with sayo until the other kids went back to eat corn, then i took over audrey's towel. somehow we got splitted up... but we met up again for churros.

got a call saying we should hurry back since people are waiting for us so they can leave.

powerwalked back up the hill and got sung to. caked. people left, one by one. played some games under a million blankets. packed up in record time and then loaded everyone into a bajillion cars. dropped the grill off at sayo's. came home and ate some more (strawberries! chips! dip! yum!) and watched catch me if you can. forgot how fun that movie is.

people left again... and i fell asleep.

Re: Plannnns

so.
saturday at 1:00.
at redondo beach (specifically veteran's park).
My parents have promised a large tarp covered in sleeping bags and pillows and a small tent. this should equate coziness and make up for a lack of bonfireness.... i hope.
they also promised lots of food and drinks.
be prepared to meet my extended family (most of them) and be evaluated by them (last time, they told audrey that her face was full of joy. they're nice, dont be scared. but it could get awkward).
oh and my parents request that you guys bring some outdoorsy type things. think... frizbees, bikes, balls, etc. in fact i'll make a list of things that it would be nice/smart for you to bring.

to bring:
-towel
-change of clothes (basically so we can throw you into the ocean)
-ice cream money (if you wish)
-empty tummy... or mostly empty. starvation is bad
-sunscreen. i always forget this, and it turns out to be an important thing. remember how bright red my arms were after the garage sale?! oO;;

and since we have a to bring list.. we need a not to bring. just for the yin and yang.
not to bring:
-any overt present type thing. if we havent had this discussion already you can come talk to me.
-porn. this is a family get together... let's keep it pg-13 at least
-wild animals. i'm not sure how they'd react to the korean food. (domestic animals are welcome, my mommy loves doggies)<---NOT to eat! oO;;
-weapons... sorry kids... but i dont think getting fatally wounded is on the agenda.


uhm. yeah i think that's it... questions? comments? call 1-800-youhavemynumber. business hours are... always! ^^

felt like forever

so i met up with an old friend yesterday.

she's not old as in her age, but i havent seen her for a good three months.

she (jane) goes to cornerstone, which, if you dont recall, is where i used to go to church. We were like the only two senior girls and we were like best buddies. We always had really good talks, and i missed them.

so i picked her up from West and we went to corner bakery cafe. it's yummy there. i must go back to try some pastries. there were these cookies with mini m&ms ALL over them. to quote Jane, they were "overwhelming" ^^ afterwards we went to pinkberry and then i dropped her off at home.

overall, it was an interesting meeting. i can say with candor that it was pleasant to see her and talk to her again, and it was comforting to know that we were both in a place of.... frazzled-ness.

yet, it felt like so long since i had seen her. in fact it felt like years since i had seen her. So, there was that level of awkwardness that is unavoidable in situations like those.

but i had missed her and it was nice to get together again.





then i came home and crashed for a few hours. got a wake up call from audrey, which i snooze button-ed, got a wake up call from john, which was late.
did a mini freak out while i tried to get my ind. reading done... finished in fairly good time
had a college talk with some kids, and i still dont know what's going on with columbia yo. they are fruitcakes and they need to get their act together.
talked to my one and only for a while, but i was so exhausted that i couldnt even bring myself to make words... so he told me to get to bed.



and so i did.

it's been said

a couple times in our blogging community:
"my heart hurts physically and not in the emo way"

or something like that





but when i'm emo, my heart physically aches too. is that supposed to happen? am i dying?? oO;;

and sunday....

woke up and was all nervous cuz i thought church started at eleven. so i was like freaking out and stuff telling my brother to hurry up and like worrying about getting gas. then i realized. oh. church starts at eleven thirty. derr.

after service we went to seafood port for some praise team bonding time. it was crazy. like.. everyone was screaming at each other and trying to get food and stuff. i was just like.. oh here's something in front of me... *grab* *munch* mmmm. it was yummy. gotta say.

then went to yogurt island and had a nice chat with some kids. ^^ i like them.

then hannam chain with madre, had a nervous breakdown in the car with my brother. actually it might have been an anxiety attack. and then i was calm.

went home to wait for john. he was an hour later than i expected, so i think i was kind of down after that. like.. i was waiting for so long ya kno? and it felt like i had a loooooooot of shit to do, and waiting was not the most productive thing. anyways, he came and i was all sad or whatever...

went to sayo's to drop off ring money and get a literary device for my ind. reading.

came back home.. watched some tv with john.. actually... it was more like i kind of slept on him while he watched tv.

headed over to audreys to study for econ, and john was bored so i felt bad. ran around outside. then we went on that pointless ice cream run....

came home and pretty much got depressed. but then i cheered up because God loves me. no seriously. i was like. "everything is alright because Jesus died for me. soooo... nothing will bring me down" and then i stopped crying.

i was kind of surprised it worked. but then again... not really.

and now i dont want to be at school. i want to go home. but i cant. :[

emo bang -.\\

sooooo.

saturday turned out to be... boring. and then all of a sudden super exciting~! oO;;

loafed around the house in the morning waiting for john... he didnt come... had to buy a car.. which makes squeaky noises when he turns cuz the steering weel is all leathery or something. i might buy him a steering wheel cover. lol. spelling fail. i was typing wheel as weel, and totally paused, thought "should there be an h in it? nah. that's for where!" phail. DIGRESSION

anywho. planned something with audrey, but i was sad that i couldnt see john, so it ended up failing. like i wasnt motivated enough to make it happen.

watched under the tuscan sun again. its a good movie. i like it.

went to go get dk for kogi truck. got lost. called audrey for directions. went in the wrong way and talked to the nice security guard lady, who gave us directions. she somehow knew where we were going before we said anything because someone else came before us asking for the same thing. find out later that that someone else... was ashley! oO;; ^^


sooo. kogi truck was spectaculariffic. i think next time i'm just going to get ten tacos and eat them all day long. ^^ yummmm. tacos. now i want some. oh and while standing in line, there were these two babies waddling around. one of them was super friendly and cute (but his mommy was like "grrrrrrr. stay away from my child you dirty teenagers!" facial expression-wise.) and the other one had a car thing with the long handle so the parents can steer them heehee. megusta.

then we had to rush over to ray's church, and find out that andrew's not good at having people follow him in a car. YELLOW MEANS STOP.

met some people (i might still remember their names... annie erica laurie james jacob... eh i dunno. they were nice tho) for like two seconds and then went to ray's car and drove to anaheim! whooo! that was the closest i've been to disneyland in like.. two years. more than that actually. possibly three/four years. perhaps i should go sometime. hrm. we'll see.

wanted a slurpee really bad, but we had to pay for parking and tickets (i am now in debt to ray). watched sabby's last competition dance routine majiggery. she was so cute! ^^ i remember listening to that music with her while walking to econ, and she was describing her thought processes... and was trying to see if i could tell. and i could! i was like.. oh she's like "omg i have to jump" and now she's like "whew, the rest is easy" and stuff.


then we left cuz i was all nervous... cuz my parents didnt even know i was out. and like.. each time i called.. she had a mood swing. first time she called me she was like.. ''ANAHEIM?? what are you doing there!? whena re you going to be home!??? what???? eleven!?!?!? omg!!" and then i called her to be like.. hi mommy, i'm leaving for home now. and she was like.. "oh! well i havent left yet either. heeheehee. get home safe!" and then when i got home her face was like. "you are late." and she said "go to bed now." and i was like oO;; confused.

came home and crasheeeeed.

and sunday will be a separate post cuz this is really long.

firday

was fun!

even though my praise band leader got mad at me for being late. its ok. so i ended up singing rather than playing bass. kind of awkward. but not really. i dint know two of the songs.. so i had to like... wait and then see how the song went and then endeavor to follow along. haha. ^^ but it was still fun. i like that group of people. haha

oh! my daddy made a friend at the new church too! ^^ so cute. they went to play tennis and go swimming together this morning. pwahahah. My daddy's new friend, aka Justin's dad, took him to his club (which isnt a free thing to do, bringing people) and brought donuts for him. My daddy brought him... water. lol. ^^ so my daddy says that he's going to take Justin's daddy out to lunch on a weekday or something. for some reason. this really really really reminds me of "i love you man" ^^ teehee. man date. ^^

btw. justin is on praise band too. he used to play bass, but i think he plays acoustic now, since i replaced him on bass. hahaha. i like them. they make me laugh every time we get together. laugh hard enough to make my abs hurt. ^^ exercise~! yay!

anyways. so yeah, firday was a fun day, and saturday... we shall see. it has only just begun.

WOAH

i got into berkeley! oO;;

seriously?

gah.

japan beat korea. 5-3

it was a pretty good game, but i only started watching in the middle of the eighth.
damned ichiro.
i mean... isnt it enough that japanese oppressed us for thirty years in our own country? not letting us learn our own language? trying to squish us and get rid of our culture? do they gotta shut us down in baseball too?



they do?


oh.

ok.

just wondering.

hungry.

i'm hungry. and there's nothing to keep it off my mind since i'm not doing anything.

hungryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.


mr. i is teaching. it's like watching a magician! xD or not really. but i'm still hungry.

i have to go get some bulletin notices signed.

greg jones should pick up his cake slicey thing. that was from mr. i's birthday. that was a long time ago. ew.

i'm still hungry.

i need to remember to get a guest app for prom so that john can come. xD hopefully he'll get it signed and stuff on time.







so i just left the room.

and went to wash that cake spatula thing. it was pretty gross.

then i went to horita's room to see if it belonged to her. it didnt. but there are a lot of people that i know in that class! oO;;

then i got hot cheetos. cuz i was sooo hungry. ^^ mmmmmmm. these things are highly addicting. it's like crack. except food. crackfood! xD

k. i'm going to go eat now. and be happy. perhaps i'll update later. xD

fully LOADED

so this morning i wake up and get ready for church. and i really wanted mexican food. forever. like i've been craving it for a couple weeks now, and i always get THIS close to eating it. and then fail miserably. cuz i want really good mexican food! not crappy taco bell. xP

anyways. so i wanted a breakfast burrito. and i had heard tell that carl's jr. has pretty good ones. so i go with my mom and brother to get them.

and i guess they're pretty good... i mean... i dunno if i'd crave them ever again, but yeah. not an unpleasant meal.

so off to church, where praise team got a talkin to. we're going to reform! xD and i'm giving rides to kids every friday. fun fun.

eat at church, go to seven eleven to get a slurpee with my mommy and brother. (so yummy) and then go to dsw shoe store thing. i got a cool new pair of sandals! xD woohoo! but i still need flats :[

came home and watched baseball with my daddy while rolling coins into paper tubes. talked about boys on dramas with my mommy and then helped her make dinner. got BORED out of my mind cuz brandon was using the computer for his research project thing. loafed around and around and around.

eventually i went to sayo's house. she made cookies. they were yummy. yani is scared of me. i think she remembers me as "that scary lady who almost ate me!" even though i never actually tried to eat her, i just looked her in the eyes. and she got super scared! her heart was beating like crazy fast!!! but that was a long time ago. so i think she remembers me! i scarred her for life!! anyways. we also tried to watch starwars, but it froze in the middle. so we stuck in tarzan. SO cute. "oh i see! tarzan, oh i see!"

then i came home. and now i am blogging. cuz there's not much else to do yo. not much else to do.

schlappin da bassss

i love you man was a funny movie! go watch!! xD

soooo basically saturday was fun on paper and kind of mellow in real life.

woke up and got ready for john to come over. he was late. again. xP that boy... *sigh*
ah wells.

mmm chilled for a bit and then went to mcdonalds so john could eat. bcuz since he was late i ate without him. :[

went up to pv to watch i love you man at regal. then went to pinkberry. then came back home and chilled for a few hours. then went to pf changs for dinner. then john went home.

actually, maybe it wasnt fun on paper.

beachy keen

sooooooooooooooo. today.

school:

lit: poem thing. that guy was tripping out on starvation. who needs lsd? just kill the albatross yo.
gov: presentation thing. daniel kept poking me and calling me fatty. T-T
ta: mr. i asked me about the analogy thing. "three small circles stuck together are to two larger circles stuck together as one square is to?" like i know. pah.
bio: took notes. she's not a good teacher.
lunch: posed for andrew... but i guess i'm not very good cuz i didnt like the pictures too much. pwahahha. my face is not made to be preserved. it's better we just forget what it looks like xD
multi: took notes. talked to daniel about his daddy. and then he called me a fatty.
physics: took a test. read some frankenstein

after school:

dropped off my brother and his friend. i'm so easily irritated by them. they are always late, and i'm always mad at them for it. i feel bad sometimes. i'm so unpredictable too. like sometimes they're late, and i'm ok with it. odd.
went to lago seco to meet up with Josephine, Esther J. Kim, & Kyungah... lee? dunno. went to carl's to get mexican food. failed. and then went to pick up danny park at willow tree.
we all went to the beach and found free parking! yay! no meters! xD and then we tried to play volleyball on the beach.
those nets are really high up yo. decided to play soccer instead. that was fun. but super tiring. then they decided to get wet.
and we saw three dolphins!!!! xDDDDDDDDDDDDDD oh i was so happy! you have like no idea. ^^
went back in my car, got funnel cake. (it wasnt as good as at LAcountyfair. we should all go next time! xD) and then i dropped them off.

gave anderew a bible (not really, but it looks like one) for his lit thing, and then showered like a crazy fast person, got dressed and RAN out the door so i wouldnt be late.

got to church for practice, and no one was there! apparently everyone is always late, so getting there on time wasnt an issue today. of course we said that it would be different from now on, but yeah.. we'll see. xD

basically i love these people. they're so funny. i couldnt stop laughing. my abs got a good workout today.

and then we had praise and small groups (learned about patience and kindness, both areas where i need a lot of work) and now i'm home!

and bored!

wat shall i do?







THIS!

POW!


just kidding. i love you.

oh! i was talking to someone about this! did you know that as an acronym, emily stands for: EverMore I Love You ? i like it! xD

that is all.

p.s. John got a blog! ask me if you want the url. or you can just go to the blogs i'm following. it's called "cool beans". my idea. ^^

interesting day

woke up, and then didnt want to wake up cuz i realized that the MIT results were coming out in an hour.
sighed and realized that more sleep was not going to happen, so i got up and tried to take a looooooong shower. then checked teh time. still forty minutes till the results.
so i vacuumed the house (most of the house anyways) and tidied up my room.
still ten minutes left.
sat with my brother for a while and watched some cartoons.
it was time... so i turned on my computer and clicked the link. signed in.






and found out that boston is not a good place for emilies.





ah wells.

so ate lunch after being kinda consoled by my parents... kinda consoled cuz i wasnt really upset. alex came, and then we watched sex drive. funny movie. ^^ then i felt like making ramen for some reason. but i put an egg in it and it made the ramen smell icky, so i didnt enjoy it as much. so alex ate the rest of it. and i ate popcorn and kettle chips (omg. i love those things) saw charlie bartlett. another great movie ^^ but by the end of that, my head was in pain. and alex was sleepy. so we both took an hour nap or so. then audrey came by and ate dinner with me. we all loafed for a while trying to figure out what to do... and ended up going to american apparel to exchange that skirt. bought that v-neck shirt i was talking about. the sweater got rejected, and the skirt got rejected also. i might like it in green... but no. i dont want it anymore. it's too hard to decide on the color. also bought a pair of thigh high socks that my mom hates. she looked at them and was like "UGH THOSE HORRIBLE SOCKS!!! STAY BACK!! STAY AWAY!! MY EYES!!" so i dont think she likes them. then we went to pinkberry and i pretty much spent all of my giftcard. lol. fabuloso. but it was yummy so i'm happy. came back home and audrey/alex played with my brother's transformers. hahaha. ^^ alex should post pictures later. then we decided to watch gattaca. gooooood movie. andrew shows up after a random disneyland thing (he brought us kettle corn, yummy but too muchhhh) and watches with us. everyone makes their way home afterwards.


it was an intersting day

yesterday, today

yesterday:

woke up, went to school.
lit: importance of being earnest. (i love that play)
econ: quiz kicked my butt. stupid lras that can move. D<
TA: does anything ever happen in that class?
Bio: found out that janelle was going to hang out with my friend andrew lee (from my old church), who i havent seen in forever. Janelle invited me along, so i decided to go.
Multi: chilled. our class was like EMPTY. no track people, no robotics people, and at the beginning of class no dance or asb people. like literally, we had ten people in class. oO;;
physics: i dont even remember. i think we took a quiz.

so then i took my brother and david (kid i carpool with) home and changed my clothes cuz it was getting hot.
my brother was all, "i'm taking a shower."
so i left while he was in the shower and started driving up to pinkberry in pv, which was where i was meeting them.
so i'm like halfway there when i call my mom to tell her what's going on
(actually to tell her that i'm going to study with some people *coughcough*)
and she tells me that i have to take my brother to hakwon.
*sigh*
so i have to drive back home, wait for him to change and eat, and then drive him to hakwon (which is in the opposite direction) and then go up to pv.
the whole process took about an hour, so i got to pinkberry at like 4:00.
so i forgot how expensive and yummy pinkberry is.
i want to go back! :]
and andrew and janelle and i talked for like an hour, then decided to go back to andrew's house.
he was tutoring this girl in guitar, and janelle wanted to hear andrew play a song.

so we got in janelle's car and went up up up the hill to andrew's place.
his house is nice.
janelle played the piano and i showed her my fantastic five chords of guitar X] teehee. but she's super good at the piano! she played this one classical thing from memory and her fingers were like... eak;enloe;iojea;.kieklkejoiefund.sljeioj! except... not ugly. seriously though, i didnt know fingers could move that fast!
and then she and i got bored and decided to mess around in andrew's room. we left him a note on his mirror. xD
we heard the girl he was tutoring (sydney) play the guitar. she was doing pretty good for her first time. andrew should be less hard on her. plus she's like super pretty!
anywho, sydney had to leave, so andrew played us this song he wrote for a girl. it's really good. surprisingly. oO;;
and then janelle had to go and andrew said he'd buy me dinner. xD

so we went back to pinkberry to get my car, and janelle went off to do pi day things.
andrew and i drove down the hill and decided to go to mcdonalds! hahahaha. i felt bad since he was paying for me.
hahaha. plus sabrina wanted a mcdouble. OH i owe her three dollars in change.
and so, we ordered and ate and talked and then michelle hong shows up to hang out with andrew (i swear, that kid is so connected!)
so then i'm about to leave and i'm backing out of my spot when something comes RUNNING at my car and lands on the trunk part.
O. M. G. i was like freaking out and stuff. i got so scared. it was michelle btw.
i was scared enough to like start cussing a little. "what the f*ck was that!?!?" etc. so michelle's like walking on my car and i'm scared cuz i could have just killed her, but andrew's like standing off to the side doing nothing. loser.

so then i'm off to audrey's house to do gov.
we are alternatingly productive and unproductive.
i gave sabby her food. she gave me five dollars (which is why i owe her three, since five is three more than two! yay math!)
audrey made me two more stickers for my laptop! yay! xD they are mad and mustached. hahaha alliteration!
josh leaves and i am more productive because the tv is off.
sabrina leaves because... she is finished.
i finish my editorial and decide to head home as well.

so i come home
summarize the articles for gov
start watching bbf
make a pi day shirt
finish watching bbf
sleeeeeeeeeeeeep.

all in all it was fun. ^^

today:
woke up
realized it was pi day celebrationingthing.
went to school
lit: balto, we finished earnest.
gov: did a practice test thing. i got a couple of REALLY easy ones wrong. like.. i didnt know what the 14th amendment was. and somehow i got kind of hard questions right. oO;;
TA: i dropped mr. i's pie on the floor. :[ so i ate it. hahahahah. xD it's ok. he brought like twenty pies from marie callendar's for all his classes. it was a crazy looking pile next to his desk. xD pie heaven yo. so he had pie like all day. aaaaaaaaaaaaall day.
Bio: was interesting. lol. some kid named tony walked in with his camcorder trying to ask about pi day (he was getting extra credit), so camille, ben, and i decided to make a video. x] so random. ben was a gay guy who was asking tony to sadies. it would have been super funny if tony had been like *pause to make us think he's not gay* YESH! (gay voice) but instead tony was like.. no. i'm not gay. -_-"
ah well. it was stil funny.
Lunch: piday stuffs was going on, and this one booth got like.. no one. so i came by to try it. basically think of words with letters "pi" in it. consecutively. i got a prize for most creative!!! xD ten dollar gift card to pinkberry! yay! xD then i went to shea's room and ashley was doing a photoshoot xD she took this one great picture with an amazing story behind it. she can tell you if you ask.
Multi: pie! and then we played bang. i died. :[ ah wells. janelle came by and we discussed andrew's love life. ahhahaha.
physics: watched this cool video where they made flames change height by sound waves and pressure or something and another video where they made patterns on flat metal with sand and soundwaves!! so trippy! xD

then came home and crashed. woke up at like 10:30. i'm going to try not to remember that MIT is tomorrow. 3/14 1:59 pm oh those losers. xD i wonder if i'll be one of them.

END.

so saturday....

was super fun!! ^^

for the most part.

woke up at like nine... called sayo to see what was up. took a shower and etc. sayo came over to eat a yummy thingie my mom made... lemme see if i can find a picture of it online.

twas even better than the above since my mommy added shrimpies. =] yum!

ate that while watching the end of ocean's twelve and some super awesome chef lady. she was like the hulk! cept her hair was like a blonde hedgehog! hedghulk! attack! xD

she was soooooo funny tho.

then we decided to head out to american apparel.

sayo and i drooooooooooove all the way down.

i got a nice skirt and some ELECTRIC BLUE shorts. they're kinda short to wear to school, so if you ever want to see them you'll have to catch me in a lounging state. xD i think i'm going to trade the skirt for a different color tho. :[

or maybe a shirt. cuz i want that v-neck shirt now. even though it's low enough to show my booblets when i bend over. (booblets because they're smaller than boobs i think. ^^) i just wont bend over~! ^^

in any case. i want that shirt :[

and possibly that sweater. :[

GAH! there were so many things i wanted!! T-T

in any case.

we then walked down to the beach and sampled the sand with our toes.

walked all the way down to what looked like a cool gathering of people.. possibly a surf competition since there were a heck of a lot of surfboards stuck in the sand. but! i think it was a wedding. cuz there were white chairs lined up in a very wedding-like fashion.

sooo.. as to not intrude... sayo and i skedaddled.

we walked along the beachfront houses and contemplated their prettyness and expensiveness.

then we walked down to see all the stores. i decided that i liked the store "mikey stars" (i think that was what it was called.) they had cute little sample dishes of like muffins and drinks and stuff, but i felt bad to eat them cuz we werent gonna buy anything...

then we headed over to blockbusters to rent marie antoinette. HOWEVER. you have to be 18 to get a card. darn it. well... its just one more thing to look forward to i guess.

so driving back home, we stopped by penguins. after we failed miserably trying to get to pinkberry. that place is hard to get into if you're not on that side of the road!! drove in a LARGE circle. T-T

then when we got home, i was surprisingly greeted by... nothing. lol. my daddy was watching something, but we changed it to bend it like beckham. hahah. her mom thought she was a lesbian ^^ funnie. =]

then john walked in (cuz my front door is never locked... and i didnt answer my phone) and we ate fried rice. whoot. ^^

after that, sayo went home and john and i went to go pick up james.

we were going to some bonfire thing.

it was lame. i had to pay fricken three dollars for parking.

we got there at like five... were bored for like ever, so we left james with his friendlings and drove down highland for a LONG time.

ended up back at american apparel area.

went to vons and bought some peeps. ^^ they're SO cute.

but SO sugary. oO;;

went back to go get james. IT WAS COLD

so we stood next to the fire and watched while drunk people and high people made fools of themselves. it was kind of funny. ^^

took james home early. frikken waste of time. but he was rolling so we had to stop by carl's to wait for him to sober up a little. hahaha we were talking about peeps and he was like "you know those things blow up in the microwave?" and then i offered him one and he said "NO WAY MAN! what if it blows up in my stomach?" hhahahah ^^ kids are silly when they're high.

mmm went back to my place and chilled with john. almost fell asleep cuz i was TIRED.

then john went home hoome home.

and yeah. now i'm broke out of my mind! oO;;

tuesday

i know it's thursday, and all of these other things have happened since i last posted, but the most exciting day so far this week was tuesday. SO.

lets see.. it was late start, so we did the frittata thing. (i am almost positive that this is how you spell it and that everyone else has thus far spelled it oddly.) yes. i am now positive since i looked up on merriam-webster.com... what a nifty site! =]
then drooooove to school behind a large bus thing.
did the whole school majigger (which was mostly about wasc. we're becoming obsessed with this as a school. it's a big deal, but not that big of a deal that we needed to spend all day discussing action goals and eslrs. ahh bureaucracy).
and then i took my brother and david (kid i carpool) and alex to my house.
picked up gas money and allowance money.
then went with alex to get gas (almost missed the gas station and then almost got hit by a car. you know how when you go driving, you always see that one crazy person doing crazy things and you try to avoid them while you're driving? it turns out that instead of being the person who witnesses it every time, i'm the person doing the crazies. -_-" sadly.)
then went to barnes to look up Ros&Guild. they didnt have it. :[
So i went to borders. looked in the wrong section for it and then got helped by a very nice indian guy (he had a slight accent, which i thought was cool. cuz indian accents, when they're heavy, can be hard to understand. but his was just enough to be like "woah you have an accent!" and not be like "woah! your accent makes it impossible for me to understand what you're saying!")
they also didnt have it. so the nice indian guy reserved a copy for me up in pv.
So i took alex home and then went up to pv by myself. i think i'm starting to enjoy driving alone. it gives me time to think. when i first started driving i HATED being by myself. i always needed someone to be like.. next to me so i could talk to them. but now i like to focus on like.. driving.
went to pv, bought a couple of moleskins (yay! my first ones!) and then went to buy my copy of R&G.
remembered that i had to get one for audrey too, so the lady made me get in the nonexistant line again... i think that she could technically have gotten it for me, but she was like. "it's over there. go get it yourself" no worries. i'd have done the same thing. way to go kindred lazy spirit! but yeah.. i was annoyed with her facial expressions of like.. "WHAT."
drove back down to sayo's house... called john and put him on speaker. he just woke up from a nap and told us about his crazy dream. it was all in spanish. hahahaha. and it was all indiana jones style. ^^
went home after lounging with sayo...
and then read R&G. it was entertaining, but i got kinda bored and fell asleep. ended up taking a looooooooong nap.
soooooo. yeah. talked to john on the telephono. and then went to bed. =]

that was my tuesday. not that exciting i'll admit, but sadly it is the most excitement i've had in a while. and so i have posted about it.





now you see me...




now you--
pooooooooooooof!

today

john and i told our very first cornerstone person about us dating.

he freaked out quite nicely, but promised to be ok after a couple of drinks/a joint. -_-" that church dude... that church.

found out that john smoked weed once without telling me. sky-hole. >:l but he told me the story and it was lame so i forgave him. but still dude. how fucked up is it that he didnt tell me?

nothing much else happened today. got yogurt island with church people. and i realized that that yogurt place is like ten steps from my church. oO;; of course there's a wall to climb over and a parking lot to walk through, but w/e'vs. the other eight steps are easy peasy.

i'm tired. driving makes me tired. i'm going to BED. zzzzzzzz

teachers are funny

Mr. Mac was in the hall next to the lockers in D. Dancing. Not overly, but u know, like a bit of shoulder action. Then another lady teacher (blonde, i dont know her) approaches from the office direction. She is walking, but yet... she is dancing also. "This is how i walk," she says. Mr. Mac responds by shoving some sort of yellow object (hopefully food) into his mouth. "Oh that's hot. Wanna make out?" she asks.


i thought it was amusing.

^8^ <--That is a fishy face

xD

it has been quite a while since i have done a post.

mm.. but nothing much has happened. John came over yesterday for like ten minutes. He gave me a bunch of super random stuffs. hahaha it was super entertaining. =] i'll explain if you guys ask.

it's been such a long time.. it's like.. when there's so much to say.. that you dont know what to say.

mmm... sushi. dumb boys. and battle royal = saturday

uh... church. nap. loafing when i should be hwking = sunday

who knows what monday will bring?

dang.

sabby, why's your bf so deep?


like woah.

Weekend--and then some.

so this post was meant for sunday night, but i drafted it, and then i forgot about it. -__- so now it's uber late. neways...

Saturday:

woke up at Sayo's and then went home, watched a couple of movies and then we had to leave for my uncle's house.

So we're running some errands and stuff and we call my aunt to see what we should get my cousin for her birthday. And we find out that they have rescheduled the get together for sunday. whoo. So we drove back home. Thankfully we didn't go very far in our errand running, but still. Such a waste of two hours.

Then i called John and he and decided to hang out after dinner. So I ate with my mommy (steamed crab), it should have been yummier than it was... the crabs weren't that fresh i suppose. My daddy took a nap since he had alcohol poisoning from the night before (when the children are away, the adults tend to play).

Then John came and we watched 72 minutes of Cars on Megavideo. hahaha. that's so annoying. but Cars turned out to be a really cute movie. ^^ i liked when the tow truck hooks the racecar in the back, and the racecar gasps. hahahahah. ^^ i should finish it.

so John left a bit later, and then I took a shower and went to sleepiebye.



Sunday:



Woke up, went to church.

Went to lunch with some church people (i think.. i might be making friends! oO)

Came home, finished FAFSA nd started CSS, went to my uncle's house, where we celebrated my little cousin's birthday. she got so excited that the instant anyone arrived and put a present down on any flat surface, she went crazy and opened all of them. the cute part is, that once we had sung happy birthday and caked and stuff, she was like "are we gonna open presents now?" lol. five year olds are funny. Went back home and then finished CSS. leanred about something else i have to do.. some IDOC crap. >:[ gah. i hate colleges.

Monday:

Went with my mommy to get new contacts, and then went to Macy's and bought new clothes! yay! (only one shirt, but i like it! ^^) mmm.. figured out ride sityations with audrey, john, and andrew... john couldnt make it so i was sad, but i think it's ok to not hang out with him all the time. (my parents would gasp if they read that. they've been saying stuff like that while i made pouty sad faces for like... a month)

saw coraline. it was fun! ^^ i liked it!! Dakota Fanning did a good job! and the writers and animators and everything! very nice! (the mice were super cute! and i want a cat now)

Mikea, Andrew, Audrey, Alex, Nicolette, and I browsed through Urban, always interesting. and I found a hat that i would like, except that it's like 24 dollars. oO;; so sad.

Then mikea had to leave, and audrey had to leave, so we went to jamba juice. and i only had like.. two dollars. so i didnt get any. :[
sooo... jamba --> pier --> carl's --> my house. watched independence day. ^^ i love will smith. what a hottie.

mm... it was a nice day. maybe too much testosterone for a while.. but yeah. ^^




wow! what a long post!

Gah.

Alex's comment on Ash's blog reminded me of neopets. i think i had like five diff usernames and eight different pets because I kept forgetting my passwords.

Neopets was a really pointless thing if I think about it. I never went on quests or fought people or did any of those things... I don't know what i did.

But that's applicable to so many things online right now... like... what's the point?


my dose of deep for the day.

Non-Black and White

last night was black and white, but it rained. I didnt go in the first place because... well i dont do that kind of thing. ANYWAYS.

instead, sabby, audrey, sayo, and I (plus some boys) got together and had some food and movie fun. but in the middle of it i had to leave for church. DK decided to come too, so i went by and picked him up. His mom told me that i speak korean pretty well and that I should be careful with driving her son. DK's mommy really loves him! ^^

so we went to church, and this praise team was really cool. ^^ they sang and gave testimonies and it was fun. Yun Lim was there too. He used to go to my old church. Well he still goes technically, but he might come to my new church. Copy cat xP.

they gave us food (pizza nd wings. dude. i'd been craving buffalo wings forEVA, but now that i had some... i just want MORE ^^), and then after that I took DK home and went back to sayo's. By then everyone cept audrey nd sayo (course, since she lives there) had gone. so we watched princess bride. but audrey couldnt appreciate it cuz she couldnt see (brokie glasses :[ ), and there was always someone talking during the funniest bits (at least in the beginning). but that's ok. ^^ we still enjoyed it because it's my fav. movie. and then anderew stopped by to eat something and massage his thighs. xD

and then... we had a long talkie about life, and i got too tired to talk anymore... my voice was going. so we slept. and woke up to hear audrey talking to her mommy. and then audrey left and sayo and I peeled an apple and chatted about tea.

all in all, i think that it was a good time.

end of the day

so i took alex home after school, and we were walking past mrs. drehs's room. and i told her "i'm going to pick flowers!" and then i pointed to the tree. (my original intent was to keep them in my car) but mrs. drehs says "oh no, you dont want those flowers. they smell like shrimp." 'Shrimp?!' i thought to myself. "Shrimp?!" i said. she says, "pick some and smell them yourself" so i do. oh dearie me. they smelled quite strongly (and badly) of shrimp. whell i can't have my car smell like shrimp! so i ask alex "what shall i do with it?" "Throw it on the ground!" he says. so i do. i feel bad, but my nose still smells like shrimpness. so i feel not as bad.

then we go to caliyogurt (me) and quiznos (alex) because cravings feel best once they are satisfied.

then we talk, and i go to his house to pee. and then i borrow catch-22, which i can tell might get difficult to get through, but if i start doing my math hwk at home, i'm going to need something to do during TA period.

and then i spent like a million hours watching shows that i needed to catch up on. (heroes, kkotboda namja, scrubs) which was fun, but made me not do my math/physics hwk. but that's what being a TA is for.

nothing new to learn today. just go to whatyououghttoknow.com and learn about the bailout. they're funny so you'll have a good time.

middle of the day

so all that's happened so far today is that while walking to second period, i picked a flower off of a tree and was contemplating it's prettyness. So i offered it to the person beside me, who was Ray. (actually, andrew was right next to me, but he's got someone else for such things) Anywho. I say, "for you!" and he SNATCHES it out of my hand. very rude. and he throws it on the ground. even more rude. then he STEPS on it. we are beyond rude now. we are at mean. and he says "that's what i think of you!" very mean. :[

but i got kind of cheered up after that because Greg Jones complimented me on my earrings. he wanted to know where i got them, i can only assume he'd like a pair for himself, but i think it would be embarrassing for him and me to walk around wearing the same earrings. xD

mr. i's room is very dusty. probably because i tried to clean the place with dry tissues. i should have used wet things, so that the dust didnt fly into the air and clog my breathing tracts/eyes, but i dont want to waste my drinking water. obviously. ^-^

this class is so studious. looking around, kids are discussing problems and trying to figure out the problems together. it's very exemplary. mr. i is actually walking around and giving help to students rather than chatting them up on their lives.

lol. mr. i was like "hey! i can make you grade stuff huh?"
hahah. he's never had a TA before, so the idea is probably very odd for him. ^^ i always have to wash my hands after leaving this class.

that's all for now, i might come back later and update again.

at school?? oO;;

i have two minutes to post this before the bell rings. this is because i am in mr. i's room. BECAUSE PE IS A THING OF THE PAST, HECK YES! ^^

being a TA is interesting. you get ignored by the rest of the class and mr. i stops by to small talk. it's not like super exciting, but it's not like.. torture. ^^ yet. hahaha

i might end up like auctioning off my services every third period to whoever needs it. "what will you give me if i grade those papers for you, mrs. cardenas?" "mrs. drehs, if i organize csf stuff, will you buy me a smoothie?" etc. ^^ sounds like i'm going to have fun! hahaha

18

so blogger tells me that this is my eighteenth post. That's fun and dandy and all those other adjectives, but it got me thinking about the number eighteen.

Who decided that when a person turned eighteen, they were mature/responsible enough to take care of themselves/take responsibility for themselves? How do you all of a sudden become an adult? It's not like we have a ritual/ceremony/trial that we must pass to verify our adultness (like spirit walks or something), we just... get a day older. But who picked 18 as the age where it's ok for us to be out past ten, driving whenever the hell we want to, voting for the future, getting drafted (do we still have that actually?), signing our own papers, stop going to the pediatrician, and all those other things?

I'm going to be eighteen in a couple months. And unless something huge happens between then and now, I do not think i'm going to be ready for all of that responsibility all at once.



but then again, it's probably not that big a deal

what you ought to know

youtube it. they're informative funny and basically everything that i strive for. except male. i try not to be male whenever possible. xD


i found another website because of the WYOTK guys. it's www.garfieldminusgarfield.com
poor jon. xD super funny tho. i read ALL of them straight in one sitting. my eyes got tired but it was worth it.


and this is what i do on finals week rather than studying. and probably the reason that i'm going to get a B in both Lit and Econ. Gov was an inevitable thing. hopefully i have an A in everything else though. we'll see.... we'll see.

$

i wish i had money. then i could spend it on food and be less hungry. or i could pay people back who had to spot me when i succumbed under the insistent demands of my ever empty stomach.


maybe i just need to be less of a fatty...





but then i'll still owe people money.


(i spelled then as tehn again.... twice... my fingers! they just won't respooooooooond! T-T)

totally inappropriate

i should be studying for bio right now, but i feel like a rebellious bamf who dgaf. =]

but yeah. i love tina fey soooo much! i saw an episode of 30 rock. it was so HIlarious. i laughed a lot.

:b

my milkshake brings all the cows to the yard~!

and i am bo-red. bo. red. boored. boo. red. boreed. bo. reed. lol. thos are all words! except for thos. -_____-"



plip.

i should be sleeping. but i can't talk to john cuz he's on finals week an i needed to tell someone about my day. so i'll tell the internet.

hello internet. how are you?

yeah i'm good. my day? hmm... well...

i woke up at eight in the morning and therefore arrived to school ten or so minutes late. i also did not have time to shower and therefore felt icky.

gov was a free response final thinger. i feel ok about that. not great, but ok.

p.e. i found out we're having a physical fitness test. i dont think it really matters in my case since all i need is this credit and then i'll be done... but we'll see.
\
in bio we did a lab thinger and people disobeyed the teacher. but then again, she's not really the kind of person that inspires obedience. or inspires anything for that matter.

lunchtime we took a picture for student's league, in which we demanded funny poses for some reason... and i discovered that my teeth are hurting me and my whole mouth is just uncomfortable for no reason or a bad reason or something. i think i need to make an appointment.

multi we didnt do anything, so i read my lit book. which i like. i just wish that i didnt have to read it in such a short amount of time, cuz i didnt get to soak in the pretty words. but that meant that i didnt feel bad skimming the boring parts. which was a lot of it in truth. lol.

physics... she actually kept us after school. lame huh? stupid people need to learn to SHUT THE FUCK UP. stfu people. stfu.

and then i got home and showered and read a little and fell asleep and ate dinner and then read the rest and then finished the lit stuff and then finished the lab for bio (kinda) and then came up with an idea for 100 day gift and then came on here to tell you about my day. whew.

well internet... i hope your day was more interesting. but still happy, bcuz sometimes interesting isn't happy.

hahahah. the bears just keep multiplying!!! oO;;

emily chang

you think a name is so special. you think your name is your own. and then you find out... there's someone else with the same name as you! crazy business. (until you realize that statistically, it's quite rare for someone to NOT have the same name as you)

what's worse, is when you find out what someone else has done with the same name. What if they're someone famous, rich, popular, and successful? or what if they're a mass murderer? like.. would you like have the same name as the chainsaw guy around that time? and imagine the kids named osama bin laden... that's not a terribly uncommon name.

maybe it's better not to know...













or maybe i'll start a club of emily chang's around the world and we can do crazy cool secret stuff. like... t.p. the alamo! =] would that count as terrorism? ok.. nvm. or how about... help kittens in need. yeah. that sounds cool, crazy and secret. xD


or at least, two out of three is good.

next saturday?

i believe we are having a garage sale on saturday next... which is january 24th.

i have heard tell, however, that some people have plans on that day. in any case, we are going to start early in the morning and hopefully be done by lunchtime. let either me or sayo know if you can make it! =]

even if you can't make it, try to bring stuffs for us to sell. so we can make oodles of money. and use the money to spend on our rings! =] yay! (or pocketwatches or whatever)

we need to have an actual planning day tho, like the who (is coming/working/bringing stuff to sell), what (are we selling and are we doing with the money), when (...what time to what time), where (i think ashley volunteered her house without asking yet...), and we all know the why. =]

-------------------------------

newho...

yesterday john and i hung out. he bought me these two packets of gum at a car wash.

that's one of them

and that's the other one. the back of the birthcontrol gum has funny directions/warning on the back.

i dont know what to do with them. like.. what if my parents see? lol.

I Chop Some Parsley While Listening To Art Blakey's Version Of "Three Blind Mice"

And I start wondering how they came to be blind.

If it was congenital, they could be brothers and sister,

and I think of the poor mother

brooding over her sightless young triplets.

Or was it a common accident, all three caught

in a searing explosion, a firework perhaps?

If not,

if each came to his or her blindness separately,

how did they ever manage to find one another?

Would it not be difficult for a blind mouse

to locate even one fellow mouse with vision

let alone two other blind ones?

And how, in their tiny darkness,

could they possibly have run after a farmer's wife

or anyone else's wife for that matter?

Not to mention why.

Just so she could cut off their tails

with a carving knife, is the cynic's answer,

but the thought of them without eyes

and now without tails to trail through the moist grass

or slip around the corner of a baseboard

has the cynic who always lounges within me

up off his couch and at the window

trying to hide the rising softness that he feels.

By now I am on to dicing an onion

which might account for the wet stinging

in my own eyes, though Freddie Hubbard's

mournful trumpet on "Blue Moon,"

which happens to be the next cut,

cannot be said to be making matters any better.

Billy Collins

i love billy collins

wowzers.

i just took a five hour nap. oO;; that's a good night's sleep for a lot of people. in that time i should have been doing a crapload of things. in fact i should still do those things. but instead i am blogging. i had a feeling this would consume my life. :[

so right now i am having an interesting conversation with someone via Youtube comments. They made a video of John Legend's song "If you're out there". Problem: they used 'your' instead of 'you're'. so i commented that he should change the spelling. if you want to see the whole conversation it's on http://www.youtube.com/comment_servlet?all_comments&v=8PEVRGwxt9Q the last comments on the page. i was trying to be educated without sounding like a pompous asshole. i hope i dont come off as the second thing. :[

i am now going to go watch an episode of heroes and postpone math further. specifically to this weekend. and the lab. i refuse to do the lab right now. stupid bio can kiss my posterior. otherwise i finished all the other stuffs i have to do. hopefully no reading quiz tomorrow on Macbeth Act III... gotta say... i did NOT remember litotes. that word looks like 'lit notes' squished together. heeeheee.

john said that i am the source of his happiness. and sayo's image of me being a fountain of happiness inside the room inside of his chest made me laugh. =] it was great.

Four Noble Truths of Buddhism:


1. The Nature of Suffering (Dukkha):"This is the noble truth of suffering: birth is suffering, aging is suffering, illness is suffering, death is suffering; sorrow, lamentation, pain, grief and despair are suffering; union with what is displeasing is suffering; separation from what is pleasing is suffering; not to get what one wants is suffering; in brief, the five aggregates subject to clinging are suffering."
2. Suffering's Origin (Samudaya):"This is the noble truth of the origin of suffering: it is this craving which leads to renewed existence, accompanied by delight and lust, seeking delight here and there, that is, craving for sensual pleasures, craving for existence, craving for extermination."
3. Suffering's Cessation (Nirodha):"This is the noble truth of the cessation of suffering: it is the remainderless fading away and cessation of that same craving, the giving up and relinquishing of it, freedom from it, nonreliance on it."
4. The Way (Mārga) Leading to the Cessation of Suffering:"This is the noble truth of the way leading to the cessation of suffering: it is the Noble Eightfold Path; that is, right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration."

...just thinking about true religion jeans. I don't think i agree with the whole... desire = suffering... because sometimes you get what you desire. especially if you work hard...

the most secretist of secrets ever

i like it when people say things to me and tell me to keep it a secret. i like to find out what exactly they think constitutes a secret.

sometimes it really is a secret and shouldnt be told.

sometimes it is a secret that is a disguised cry for help.

sometimes it is some tidbit of info that i'm absolutely positive that no one will care about ever. ok maybe not no one.. but not anyone important.

eh. sometimes the secret isn't a secret anymore, the person who is telling me just doesnt know that.

but secrets are fun regardless. =] that's why we do things like secret santa~! or... secret keeper in harry potter! =] for fun!

avoiding consequences

how often do you make empty promises?

i find that i make so many. especially at goodbyes. "i'll come back and visit!" "i'll call you next time i'm in town" "i'll see you soon"

i'm not going back to visit. i'm not going to call anyone since i'm not gonna be back in town. i'm not going to see them soon. possibly not going to see them ever. (this is about reno btw.)

but we say these things to not offend. to avoid the consequences of our actual feelings. probably.

i might just say them so that i can run away faster. :]

oh and i learned something today

8=D

guess what that is. if you know already then you're not allowed to play. if you dont know and you guess you and i might need to have a talk.

xD

A promise (also called troth) is a psychological contract indicating a transaction between two persons whereby the first person undertakes in the future to render some service or gift to the second person or devotes something valuable now and here to his or her use. A promise may also refer to any kind of vow or guarantee.

unless it's empty.

monday.

today is monday.

so i woke up thirty minutes after my alarm went off. i have this really vague memory of picking up my phone and looking at them time. it said 6:45 and i guess i must have thought "that's way too early" turned the alarm off and rolled over.

well. that's when i'm supposed to wake up. (actually i set my alarm that early so i can hit snooze three times before i actually wake up). wow i say actually a lot. ooh! that reminds me of a guy!

sidenote: so when i was in reno, my best friend in middle school's name was joan chang. her last name was the same as mine, we had a bunch of smart kid classes together, her uncle was the head pastor of my church, her cousin asked me to senior prom when i was a freshman cuz he actually liked me a lot (kreepy old guy status... but my mom made me say yes. but now i'm digressing in the digression), and she and i both played the clarinet. really well i might add. newho. her daddy is like a professor at UNR or something so he is really smart. except that when he speaks.. he says actually in between almost every word. for example.. take that last sentence: Actually, he actually says actually in between almost every word actually. annoying. endsidenote.

so i woke up late... but got to school on time. as almost always. first period was fun.. macbeth stuff. it was like a puzzle. but i'm not good at these kinds of puzzles i suppose.. cuz we were pretty wrong. hahaha.

second period was ok... mrs. drehs was getting annoyed at people for not shutting up i think. and it made me nervous.. cuz mrs. drehs is NEVER in a bad mood. she's the sweetest person/teacher i've ever known... :[ but i think she was ok by the end of the period. such a nice lady.

third period was PE... if you didnt already know this then you need to get with the times dawg. (last three weeks yay!) and i got hit by a volleyball. but my friend got hit too. me leg. her head. i think she wins in terms of complaining rights.

erm.. after that i had a mad dash to go around and get a bulletin notice in... my club.. (students' league) is kinda dying right now. we need to come up with another project pretty soon or else.. asb might cut us. T-T

uh.. so yeah i showed up to fourth late.. and mrs. mueller SO wanted to say something but she couldnt cuz i had a NOTE. what now biotch!!! booyah. lol... it wasnt that big a deal actually but its kinda fun to talk like that.

fifth period i told the class that i might be moving into fourth period. and there was a meltdown. "NO! YOU CANT LEAVE US!!" "YOU KNOW WHAT?! WE DONT EVEN CARE! LEAVE! YOU'RE DEAD TO US!" "NO ONE IS IN THAT SEAT (the one that i was sitting in) *point* DONT TALK TO HER!" anyone tries to talk to me... "who are you talking to eh? there's no one there" (that was a canadian person.. but there were no canadians.. dont ask how that happened.) and so forth. so... i dont think i'm gonna leave. partly cuz i feel that they would be lost and confused and devastated and all those other good things w/o me. partly to spite the ones that were so vindictively insisting my nonexistance today. xP so ha.

sixth period was eh. i called audrey and had a short little talk with her. that was nice.

then i took alex home and had a short little talk with him. ^^ havent done that in a while. he told me about this crazy old lady Anita who was threatening to call the cops on him cuz he took a shower. ^^ cleanliness is next to holiness Anita... dont you know that?

took a nap. sayo called me a couple times and i didnt wake up. and then i did. and then i went to go run with her and audrey. that was fun. my head hurt... but yeah i felt accomplished. im super tired tho... might turn in earlier than usual tonight. ^^

came home and showered and stretched and ate spicy salmon rolls and worked on my bridge and watched onetreehill (dude... that brooke girl has a SEXY voice. and mia is sooooo pretty! her arms are so skinny but her boobs are big! plastic surgery? always a possibility in this world...) and ate pecan pie and drank tea nd then had to pee like CRAZY and then peed and then came online! =]

this post was very detailed and long and boring, so if you are still reading this... wow. you must REALLY love me or something. =] you can have a cookie. remind me sometime later... when i have cookies.

Cookies appear to have their origins in 7th century AD Persia, shortly after the use of sugar became relatively common in the region. They spread to Europe through the Muslim conquest of Spain. By the 14th century, they were common in all levels of society, throughout Europe, from royal cuisine to street vendors.
With global travel becoming widespread at that time, cookies made a natural travel companion, a modernized equivalent of the travel cakes used throughout history. One of the most popular early cookies, which travelled especially well and became known on every continent by similar names, was the jumble, a relatively hard cookie made largely from nuts, sweetener, and water.
Cookies came to America in the very first century of English settlement (the 1600s), although the name "koekje" arrived slightly later, with the Dutch. This became Anglicized to "cookie". Among the popular early American cookies were the macaroon, gingerbread cookies, and of course jumbles of various types.
The most common modern cookie, given its style by the creaming of butter and sugar, was not common until the 18th century.
