Hello,

I realize how much I have an emo-bipolar personality. I have this  really SOUPAR serious side...and yet I have  a really joking side. I guess it depends on how much sugar I had that day.

Anyways, I tend to put my really serious side on this online xanga, with these melo-drama yet somewhat corny entries.

Well here's another corny entry for the people who read this (I have no idea how many people read this...I'm guessing 5 or less?)

...

...

...

currently, there are two things that make me smile throughout the day:

(1) dancing, and learning how to dance...

(2) memories...

Yep, if you see me laughing while i'm biking to class, that's probably because i'm remember something really funny...

In fact, if you ever see me smile, you can assume that I am just remembering the good times with all my friends.

...

...

...

and I just wanted to thank you all

...

...

...

thank you for inviting me out with your friends whenever you went out,

thank you for teaching me how to surf and skate,

thank you for always laughing at my jokes even when im not joking,

thank you for always giving me a ride when i needed one

thank you for playing smash brothers with me

thank you for getting me out of jury duty

thank you for learning how to dance with me!

thank you for eating with me at pippins

thank you for bringing me to the phillippines and singapore

thank you for the cool birthday gift

thank you for the keychains!

thank you for listening to me when I felt I had no one to go to

and...

finally, thank you for just being present and smiling in my life..

 

I know some of these thank-yous are vague and can refer to anyone...but there are some only some people will only understand!

 

well, that was probably the most corniest entry I have written! stay tuned for more semi-emo entries!

Sometimes, the baby just has to touch the candle

Life just has to be experienced sometimes

No matter how much you hear people that tell you not to do this, or tell you not to do that, you have to do it yourself to find out. Then tell yourself, no regrets, because you were curious, and that's who you are.

music is suppose to inspire...

Yes, I am officially on season 3 on lost! Season 4 here I come!
I'm catching up everyone! soon I can talk to people and say, "hey do you watch lost?...yea, that episode was so good! ...I wonder what's going to happen next! I think 'so-and-so' is going to die!"

Lost's story is getting intense, weird in a way, but it's fun to watch when you know you have homework to do. Something to look forward at night. Just one episode a day! That's all I need.



I need to read a book on music and find out what makes music so intriguing. The beats, the melodies, lyrics, and the chord progressions. I have no idea why music inspires people. If it doesn't inspire others, it inspires me. When I see someone singing, I want to sing! When I see someone playing the guitar. I tell myself, "dude, I need to learn how to play the guitar" When I see someone dancing, I say, "Move over, it's my turn!"

If you are tired, stressed out, bored...you know what you need to do. You need to dance.


It turns that frown upside down...

The Cool
By Lupe Fiasco

It's one of em days ^^

If there is one thing I cannot stand, it has to be feeling sorry for myself. I don't like it how I feel sorry for myself whenever I am in an incovenient (not even DIRE) situation.

Today, I lost my wallet on a field trip visiting a dam nearby campus. And the moment I knew lost my wallet, I felt the "feeling sorry for myself feeling" creep up! I told myself, "don't panic...it happens all the time" I kept my cool. I smiled to everyone around me. I hope I gave the impression to everyone that I wasn't pissed or anything.

I don't know if I was pissed. And if I was, I was telling myself that I wasn't pissed because I don't want to be pissed. I don't want to be my own tragic hero of the tragedy of the day, and tell everyone that it sucks losing a wallet. So I didn't.



Well...at least I cancelled all my credit cards in no time...








I'm pretty good at it, since this hasn't been the first time! Haha

getting LOST was never this fun...rebuilding an antfarm

I'm slowly becoming a TV-junkie, as I begin picking up new shows I told myself I would never watch!

Two weeks ago I started watching LOST season 1...and man is it good! Just hearing about the synposis of the story isn't attractive, but after you watch a couple of the episodes it's not that bad.

*sigh*

My ants are slowly dying. They much were healthy before. They were super active, building lots of tunnels, exploring the outdoor park, and running really fast back and forth. But during Christmas break, I had to move them around because I wouldn't be able to stay in my apartment to take care of them. As a result, the moving led to a bunch of shaking and earthquakes... their tunnels collapsed. Some ants got trapped but a majority of them got stuck in a plastic hole. I got them out by inserting a mini Q-tip "ladder" so they can crawl out of the plastic hole. Alot of them already died and all the tunnels are gone. My roommates say its over for them. I can see why

I don't know what people get out of TV shows especially from LOST, but sometimes this show makes me think what if the unexpected happens? Y'know, something that you didn't PLAN for. What if you get into a car crash and have a serious back injury? an unexpected child? a plane crash on an uncharted island that is controlled by the "others"?

As for my ants, their lives are like the people on LOST. While people are stuck on an island, my ants are stuck in plastic ant farm with fake sand. They cannot escape. I'm pretty sure they'll die on the antfarm. And to top it off, an earthquake just destroyed their home, killing most of their sand tunnels  

What if something similar happens to you? What will be the first thing you do? wouldja panic? wouldja give up perhaps? lose hope? Certainly, I would tell myself, "my life is over!" Then I would pity myself and keep telling myself "I am the tragic hero of the story of my life... It's not my fault, I couldn't do anything..." 

The remaining ants climb out of the plastic hole. And regardless what happened to the ant farm, they continue to live. They just keep building. They just start digging out new tunnels. Did they feel sorry for themselves? I don't know. Maybe they did, but they just keep digging regardless...

Then we realize, we are humans,...and we can adapt. Life does go on for us too. There is no tragedy...

 

 

 

 

The mind can be such a dangerous thing. It can interefere your hope by saying some things are impossible or not even worth living for.

 

 

 

 

Yet we'll always have our hearts...
