2:51 pm - HAWWWWTTTTT
|
i've always thought of myself as a pretty funny guy. that's not a self-proclamation, just a sorta recognition of how i've always been able to make the people around me laugh. even if comedy is not in me, i'd bet my friend's sense of humor has at least rubbed off a bit on me. after all, i did spend the entire teenage half of my life goofing and messing around with my comedic group. most of our generation have developed an appreciation for sarcasam and racist jokes. the problem is, many hold onto it too dearly to acknowledge any other forms of humor. i, too, am a member of the sarcastic society. but aside from that, i have also developed a sorta random, off-beat, and self-deprecating humor. i love witty word-plays, and to purposely make myself sound lame, although sometimes they might not be accessible to everyone. i guess this is why i get along so well with jimmy, hoai, and josh the exroommate, because we crack jokes all the time and we understand eachother's jokes.
whether the things someone says are funny, i think, has a tremendous correlation to how u view the person. not so much the delivery of the jokes itself, that only usually applies to strangers u don't know like the standup comedians on tv. but when it's someone u do know, how u see him/her, changes ur judgement a lot. for example, if u have prejudice against someone for being dull, anything that comes out of his mouth, even if it was the wittiest of jokes, it'd still be deemed "lame". it's frustrating when u crack a quality joke, and then u're denied ur reward of laughter by a simple "no." or a head shake because they don't appreciate and fully understand the references of ur joke. and then the same audience turns around and some other person says some completely dry and insipid shit (i know it's subjective, but yea) and the audience responds by appluading. this is so called "a miss". it's discouraging, and the only redemption is to crack another one until u see those pearly whites of ur audience. i know people have different sense of humor, but well...it's really rather like trying new food. sometimes u just really have to take it in and u know, taste and digest it to experience and understand the joke. pushing it away in a repulsive manner warrant no reward of laughters for either side, and i'm sure such outcome is never the original intention of the joke teller.
humor is a very weird thing. it's so simple, yet it can also be the epitome of subjectivity and the human psyche intricacy. people have different levels of understanding and preferences in humor. with the categories and types of jokes perpetually expanding over time, and people's defintion of what's "funny" continously changing, few things in life provide the same level of satisfaction as being able to make a person laugh and subsequently laughing with the person. jokes provide that deeper, more intimate connection with people.
anyway, this week has gone by fast, probably cause i've missed 2 classes...but yea. i've been doing pretty well so far this quarter, let's hope i can keep it up. can't wait till this weekend, my girl's turning 21! yea, fun times will be had haha.

5:17 am - wow hk, it wasn't alright, it was AWESOME.
|
okay so i've finally made myself come up here and update about christmas break and the hk trip. but first, let's talk about the present. break is now over, i'm back in sd, and school has started. SHIT. First day of class wasn't that bad i guess, the math professor seems way cooler than last quarter's. oh and it turned out that my last quarter's grades weren't as bad as i thought they'd be, i ended up getting a C- for math, instead of the expected F. and then B+ and B for philo and econ respectively and passed the writing class.
hoai kept telling me to post my schedule for this quarter, so here it is:

( now onto the hk trip! )

hi world, i have just failed my math final!! and i did a good job at that. at failing. hard. since there was a lot of blank space on the last page, as i didn't even know how to start that last one, i deicded to draw a picture. i reproduced it with ms paint so i can share with all of u, observe:

yea. but hey, i passed subject A and am now done with school, so...hah!
hey have anyone watched Reign on adultswim?! that show rocks, they combined all these philosophies/philosophers and intense battle action to tell the tale of the great king alexander, but everything's in a sci-fi kinda way. it's hard to understand what they're saying sometimes though. but it's awesome nonetheless.
 You represent... hope. You're quite a daydreamer and can be a hopeless romantic. You enjoy being creative and don't mind being alone at times. You have goals, and know what you want in life... even if they are a little far fetched.

i'm sick. i'm back at ucsd. i hate school.
thanksgiving break was HELLA BALLS. it was nice seeing everyone again. we should have hung out more than we did, but the time we did spend together was awesome and i wouldn't trade it for anything. yea so quite a lot of crazy things happened at josh's party...but i guess they made the whole thing all the more memorable. i would list out all the things i've done, but there's really no point, since most of the people that read this also took part in those activities. saaaaaaaave josh!!! haha.
( pictures in here )
i finally got the group pic for homecoming. everyone was pretty boring except jimmy, hoai, allie, courtney and i. oh and i bought a bunch of cds for 9.99 each, and lion king for 12 dollars, envy me!! gonna go pick up pirates tomorrow, i hope the guy wasn't lying when he said he's gonna have it on the 1st. cause i would be really mad.
shit, i have no motivation to study for finals at all. 2 more weeks. 2 more. i want this to end now.

Your soul is bound to the White Rose: The Pure.
"I've been waiting in the dark for a long time, shining my beacon of hope through the shadow. If you see me, don't you hide your eyes from me."
The White Rose is associated with purity, honor, and chastity. It is governed by the goddess Artemis and its sign is The Cross, or Agape.
As a White Rose, you are a person of your word. You may have a strong moral code, but regardless of your virtue, you always stay true to yourself. To you, love is the most pure of emotional forms and it's just a matter of waiting for it to bless you. Some people may say you are too idealistic, but it's only because you don't want to mess things up.

bss and stars rocked balls as expected. it was just one incredible expereince...until half way through bss' set. this really tall guy that was behind me, decided to start breathing on my fucking head. and he did that till the end of the show. i tried to move away from him by going forward more, but he just moved up and filled the spot where i was and continued. i was seriously just waiting for a more dancey song so i can start swinging my elbows and hit him, but...that never happened. aside from that, the show was totally amazing.
after that we drove to ucla to spend the night at hoai's and pretended to be his roommies. we ate. we talked. we laughed. we took pictures, and taco friends, aka "ricardo", aka jimmy le, did this pose that was so funny, it made me eat the susages in the fridge raw. and "dalvin"'s legs miraciously started working when he got up from his wheelchair and walked to the bathroom. i can't believe he lied to hoai that whole time. (for pictures, go to hoai's lj)
so we went to "sleep" at around 4. sleep as in talk about matrix revolution and other shznits. didn't really start sleeping till 6. we had to wake up at 7 to leave because the meter parking system is retarded. jimmy and i got lost on the way home for a lil bit and then we found the 10 so all was dandy. breakfast burritos from mimi cafe. i really like that place, the owner is sucha chill guy. then jimmy went home and i came back and collasped on the bed and didn't wake up till 4. so pretty much just wasted away the day. at night, me and kat watched looney tunes back in action. honestly, this isn't a bad movie. maybe i was expecting something like space jam which totally sucked ass.
::SPOILER:: wow speaking of space jam, jordan makes a guest appearance in this one!! it was pretty hilarious. ::END SPOILER::
wow, shortest spoiler ever. yea and then we came back to my house and chilled, instead of literally being chilled outside. it was outrageously cold for some reason. so since my room now has nothing (everything's in ucsd), she just played around with this life-size snoopy doll that i have while i burned her about 483290480329432 cds (as in 4). then she tried to steal snoop-dawgy so i kicked her out of the house. and snoopy thanked me. and im tired.

3:01 am - hot damn!
|
hi friends! yea so friday i had an econ midterm and a math quiz. didn't do too exceptionally good on them...but i would say maybe a B or C. whatever. and then watched fight club and igby goes down with barbie at my place and then i walked her back to her apartment. going there i was talking with her and didn't really pay attention to the surroundings...though i did notice about the thick and massive fog. but coming back...that was quite an experience. so i decided to come back through the library walk...man the fog was crazy, u can only see maybe 10 or 20 feet around u, and everything outside of that radius, u could maybe see their shapes vaguely, it was like a dream world. and then i looked towards the library, couldn't see the actual structure, but through the luminated windows, u could make out each level of the building. and with the fog, it totally looked like ET's ship. and then as i proceeded through the shortcut, which is where the singing tree resides, it started making sounds and with all the woods and stuff, it was freakn creepy.
yea and then moving on to today. work SUCKED. alright on saturday i work "night crew" from 6:00 to 9:30. basically u just go around and fill in soap and paper towel for the stations and bathrooms, pick up the aprons and towels and stuff and bring them into the storage room where they put all the dirty clothings. sounds pretty chill right? yea it is, until fucking closing time. u have to go around take out ALL the trash to the back and dump them in the large dumpster. and then take out the cardboards. then rinse out all the trashcan, pick up all of the 50 bajillion mats in the kitchen/dishroom and various places, and each of them weights like 50 thousand tons, bring them to the back, rinse, put them on a rack to dry them and then take them back. holy crap. okay enough bitching. yea so i got off at 10, which is 30 mins late. and then i ran my ass over to che.
and che. hotcross and one am radio played tonight. and some other hardcore bands. i met up with rachel inside, and, holy shit, okay i gotta interupt and post this thing that erika just said:
NerdBeach (2:44:56 AM): but alas.. i am but a cumless woman. NerdBeach (2:45:02 AM): damn women and their lack of cum.
yea u are wondering "wtf?!", me too. anyways, i met up with rachel and just in time for one am radio. they rocked, i had to get their cd cause they are just that good. they are a really lo fi, 2 piece band, 3 if u count the laptop. the guy plays guitar and sing and the girl does back up vocal, violin and SAW. yes saw, she played a fucking saw. how i do not know, but i was amazed. i mean that's like something sigur ros would do, and it makes this eerie sound. and then me and rachel bitched about our jobs, and she told me about the marukami book she's reading. i don't really care about it that much but it was cool talking with her, cause we didn't really talk last weekend @ allie's. and then golden sky or some shit played, they're a pretty alright hardcore band, nothing too special though except the singer was going crazy but eh, hardcore band. and then hotcross, shit im not much of a hardcore fan, but hotcross was freakn awesome. i woulda gone in and danced or go crazy whatever, but i was kinda too worn out from work for that kinda intensity. so i just stayed back with rachel and watched and did the usual head-boping. i guess they didn't have a set list, that's why they kept asking people what song they should play, and this guy in the far back kept screaming venus and bacchus, it was pretty hilarious. well that's about it. wow okay my suitemates just started a poker game...@ 3am in the morning. okay yea im gonna go join, so later friends!

 You are Form 9, Vampire: The Undying.
"And The Vampire was all that remained on the blood drowned creation. She attempted to regrow life from the dead. But as she was about to give the breath of life, she was consumed in the flame of The Phoenix and the cycle began again."
Some examples of the Vampire Form are Hades (Greek) and Isis (Egyptian). The Vampire is associated with the concept of death, the number 9, and the element of fire. Her sign is the eclipsed moon.
As a member of Form 9, you are a very realistic individual. You may be a little idealistic, but you are very grounded and down to earth. You realize that not everything lasts, but you savor every minute of the good times. While you may sometimes find yourself lonely, you have strong ties with people that will never be broken. Vampires are the best friends to have because they are sensible.

1:00 am - WAHOOOO~
|
wow so the first weekend back from college was a total blast:
Friday got back home around 6:30 on friday night...and then it was time to go to the hc football game. well foothill got their ass kicked, but no one really cared, it's all about talking with friends that u haven't seen for a long ass time. after the game ended, like 10 of us went to wahoo's and watched dan and jimmy ate. and then vicky and friends had to go home while me, jimmy, hoai, dave, dan, courtney and erika headed over to century and watched kill bill vol.1. holy shit, that movie was good. i liked everything about it, its style, its music, its action and its gore. well actually some parts are soooo violent, it's like "wowwwww wtfff!!!!!" but yea, it's all good fun. josh and hoai think that gogo girl is hot...i think it's just the school uniform and the skirt that does it...but like her face...i think it looks whack.
Saturday went out with family during the day since i promised parents family time. it's pretty weird, cause after a long time from not seeing them, u kinda miss thier nagging...and then once they start, it's like "shit...okay no more." got back home around 4:30...was soooo freakn tired and lazy, it took a lot of effort to get my ass up to take a shower and dress for homecoming. and then being the usual late wong, i was late to the meeting place. good thing jimmy was even later haha. ate at that...place. i forgot the name but it was pretty good food and kinda cheap, so i was happy hehe. and then to the dance we went! it was awesome. allie was an awesome date, even though she was sick and tired she still tried to dance and not to ruin it for me...unlike some other individual that runs off::glares at rachel:: j/k. and then afterwards, went to allie's house and jacuzzied and bouncehoused. okay yea so some crazy shit went down in the bouncehouse. so we were all just kinda lying there out of exhaustion from jumping, and then all of a sudden, hoai decided to start doing pushups...on jimmy. it was pretty erotic seeing him went at it, and then he turned around, and did pushup with his crotch in jimmy's face (AHHHHH!!!). i think jimmy fainted. well it was the national coming out week...so i guess hoai was doing his part. and hey, remember what happened last time at sabrina's? the bouncehouse like sagged to oneside and we were all traped in cause everyone decided to jump on the same side in the bouncehouse, remember? yea we tried that shit again. so me, hoai, jimmy, jessie and kemper all rushed from one side to the other, trying to recreate what happened at sabrina's. and then there was rachel sitting on the other side, cause she didn't wanna get hurt. so we rushed, and bam! it was all fun and laughters during the first 5 secs or so, and then panic and screaming set in as we realized that the whole bouncehouse was getting tip over. as it slowly did so, my towel that was just lying there on the floor and rachel who was sitting on one side, started sliding down towards hoai and i who were screaming on the ground, it was like fucking titanic!!! me and hoai got up and attemped to push it back up but it was useless, and then the power cord disconnected from the fan and so the house started to deflat. good thing we all got out before that. man that was epic...and then we blow the thing back up and went in again. yes we haven't learn anything. homecoming night was awesome, thanx everyone who made it possible, especially allie :)
Sunday woke up at 12:00, eric called and said he's back in tustin, and since i love this guy, we just needed to go chill. and so we did. jimmy and dave also came along to in n out. it was awesome, just sitting there chatting. thanx for the bday card mccoy! yea and then we splitted and i went shopping and some idiot, sold greene his/her copy of the spaceman3 forged prescription album, which came out just this year. and greene was stupid enough to fucking price a used, but still extremely brand newlooking 2 cds album OF SPACEMAN FUCKING THREE for 5 dollars. naturally, i grabbed it... along with new amsterdam and jealous sound. i can't believe i still haven't seen one single store that has dmst's new album. and josh hasn't seen one either. wtf. then went home packed and came back down to sd.
it was the best weekend i've had for a looong time. that is it for now, for i have classes and shit at 8 tomorrow. i <3 all yall.

whoever thought up the "freshmen 15" shit, im gonna shoot him. the feeling i've been feeling the most since i've been to college is hunger. i have only eaten a decent meal like once the past 3 days. fuck u freshmen 15 creator guy.
well so a lot of activities and what not has been going down, dances and stuff. not all of them are all that fun though. as much as i don't wanna admit, i have become some kinda mildly anti-social loser. i don't even enjoy most of the dances, it's like u know nobody... and im not the type of person that would go up to a stranger and start dancing/chatting it up. i mean if someone initiate it, i would most likely respond. but starting it is different. i'm pretty close to our suitemates though, been doing lots of stuff together. roommate on the other hand has been gone on his own with some other people most of the time. i've met a lot of people and such the past couple days, but their names come and go. i don't even remember most of them. nor do i recall what the conversations i had with them were about. but no matters. it's only been 3 days. things will change...or remains the same. whatever, i could care less.
i never though i would, but today i ate a vegetarian sandwich. no i didn't buy it. that was the only kind they had left for this activity. it was freakn delicious. i thought "woah, if all vegetarian food taste like this, i'd become a vegetarian!"...surely i wouldn't anyways...since i can't really live without chicken. but yea.
i think i can skip the details about what i did...it's not really particularly special or important.

2:31 am - ucsd

hey friends. well im here @ ucsd, and it's going pretty good. im all settled and stuff. needa put decorations up and then it'll be done. my roommate chris is a very chill guy, nice and easy going and all that and pretty outgoing. me him and another suitemate, randy, shot some hoops today after i unpacked. the basketball courts are about 50, 60 feet away, and they are freakn nice. im living in revelle if u haven't heard, cause muir is overpopulated. and im in challenger hall, room 102. the room is kinda hard to find, cause u have to go down these couple of stairs first and then there's a door, i thought it was like a sotrage place and skipped it and just walked around the builing for like 3 times but couldn't find an entrance. i was getting frustrated and about to break in through someone's window, but then i found it so it was all good. it's kinda like living in the basement, but it's alright, when a bomb drop we won't be the first ones to die. haha, wtf. anyways, chris and randy proceeded to the dance in sierra summit but i was gonna go visit barbie, so i didn't go. phil and i walked over to barbie's apartment but she wasn't there, figured maybe she's at marshall's dance (muir, marshall both have their respective dances this night) so we walked back. i was way dead, and me and phil just played some sc2 and he left. (oh btw him and brian lives like 10 secs away from me)
i seriously don't see any difference between what im doing here and what i'd be doing if i was home. i even have the same set up, like here's the desk and the computer, and then the tv is on my left. this room already feels like home...but outside, no. i guess it takes some time to adjust. especially when u shower and shit. randy kinda reminds me of eric, and then i have another suitemate named HOAng, that's pretty close to HOAi right? and if u think of these other asian guys as josh, jimmy and dan, we've got the whole tustin gang right here. but yea hoang's girlfriend + female friend is being really loud for about 5 hours now, and they don't know how to shut up. damn it i wanna sleep.
cartoon breakfast tomorrow...i don't know if im gonna wake up...but i'll try...free breakfast. FREE.

You are a fun loving person who is always willing to laugh. You are very in tune with keeping the peace and caring for the well- being of others. Don't ever lose those qualities!

i visited foothill today. for those of u who wanna visit, they don't hand out visitor passes in the office anymore. u have to either make an appointment to see a specific teacher, or...::sigh::...never thought i would say this, sneak into school through the back or something. i went in through the back of the 300 building after getting denied in the office. i tapped the door and this mexican girl just came over and opened it for me. this really makes me question the security of the school...i mean what if i had a gun and i was gonna totally annihilate the entire student body?! oh well.
yea so i went into latin, and holy shit there were so many people, last year there was about 10 people for latin 3 and 4 combined. so everyone in latin3 last year moved up to 4, and about 50 bajillion kids are now in latin 3. me and phil chatted with ms adams for a lil bit and then with the latin 4s, like allie, ben, long and them. quite frankly we didn't give a crap about the lil latin 3s. they have to do actual work this year...that's outrageous! i remember the good old days where we just sat around and watched educational films such as jay and silent bob strikes back, minority report and many others. and play 13 of course. i feel so sorry for these people, they have to translate.
phil dropped me off at my house and hoai, jimmy and eric were already waiting in front of it. it's pretty funny cause hoai was all "dude, i didn't know u can possibly be late to your own house!!" these bastard guys tried to pick the lock to this door in my backyard with a twig. breakfast @ minis cafe was good. breakfast burritos again. and then we played some soul calibur 2 and eric had to leave to get his shots but all of a sudden he ran back in and was like "dude guys, come with me." knowing eric, i thought he was about to make some ridiculous jokes, but when we got outside the house, he showed us his car's shattered back windshield. u know those special glass that just cracks into a million pieces but still stick together? yea.


it was pretty crazy. we thought the gardeners did it at the beginning...cause there was no way it could be the pressure inside, since the windows were open...and we couldn't find any evidence to show that something dropped and hit it...yea i don't know. but we helped him clean it up and i cut up a trash bag and taped it on there as a temporary windshield.
weakerthans will rock tonight.
