hmmmmmmm i might invite some other people, but that is one legit guest list right there. throw in some food, drinks and me and that would be the most epic party EVAR.

Anyways..........update on the mother stories.

Every time I come home my mom loves to hand me some advice.

There was that one time my mother told me to learn how to bake bc that's what apparently attracts guys.

one month later.....she then advises me that if I date two guys, to not let them know about each other.

Um.

1. Why are you telling me this first of all?

2. Why would you encourage this mom???

3. DUH! Why would I let them know about each other??? That's just common sense! Please mom, your daughter knows whatsup.

haha anyways This morning before I went to church, my mom told me not to drink and drive......because that's obviously very useful information before I go to church. And also because I slept at like 11PM the night before, yes I slept at 11PM on a Saturday night. I am lame, please do not judge. haha And during dinner, my mom tells me that she read that 10% of guys on Christmas day are looking for a one night stand and to be careful to not be tricked by guys...because you know on Christmas night, things get a little crazy..........right..........haha But that is sad and pathetic for guys to look for one night stands on Christmas. Way to try to cash in on someone's holiday loneliness. *sigh*

haha enough blabber. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Baby, It's Getting Cold Outside

You know sometimes when you study, and your leg falls asleep? Like...my left leg right now.......and when this happens while i'm studying, I get really sad and jealous because parts of my body are asleep but I am not! I know it's ridiculous to be jealous of like your own leg, but that's how it is! You wish you were asleep like your foot, but alas you are not and can not. Sigh* Fail. What a tease.

It's getting really cold, and rainy. I don't really like the cold and rain, :( I like warm weather and the sun, so my wardrobe consists mainly of summer wear even though......I am a norcal kid. I'm a little bit of a disgrace to norcal weather bc i'm a baby when it gets to cold weather but whatever, i'll just throw in some hella's and redeem my norcal pride. But anyways when it's cold and rainy, my favorite thing to do is drink hot coco with a lot of marshmallows and sleep listening to the pitter patter of the rain, knowing that I am dry and warm in my bed or.........drinking yogurt soju and eating ddukbokki isn't half bad either. :P Seriously, that hits the spot and reminds me of this one night I had in Hong Kong. :)

Mmmmmmmm, finals are here and I can not wait for them to be over. This quarter has kind of been extreme, I had four classes this quarter, all being upper div classes and one being Econometrics 122B (a.k.a the hardest econ class for Bus. Econ majors). And with those four classes, I have had 7 midterms & 1 group project/paper. What the kwakkkkkkkkkk?!?! MID-terms, as in middle of a term, they're not supposed to be every other week! I literally had a midterm every week, except one week and that is kind of ridic. But whatever, I handled it, decently enough at least.

But all in all, i'm thankful for many things. As for now though.......I wish my professors just believed that I actually learned something and didn't feel the need to test me. C'mon, i'm trustworthy! O:)

sigh* back to studying!

What's Up With Society?

Another theory of mine...

There are so many trends in our society and the media that come so fast, it's hard to keep up!

1. First we had the whole being lesbian thing. Examples: the Britney & Madonna kiss on TV, songs about being lesbian like Lady Gaga's "Poker Face." The song is actually about Lady Gaga saying that when she's with a man, she is really thinking of a woman and keeps on a poker face. And then the song "I Kissed A Girl" by Katy Perry. Did you know Katy Perry started out as a Christian singer at first? And then Lindsay Lohan went lesbian on us, aside from becoming lesbian, girl has issues period. And also that whole Tila Tequila reality show about choosing a man OR woman for her dating life. Not gonna lie, but uhhh...I kept up with that show my sophomore year. haha it was intriguing and had its moments. But yeahhhhhh anways, point and case.

2. Second, the whole Indian thing was becoming popular. Bombay par-tayyyyyyyyyy. Slumdog Millionaire came out, GREAT MOVIE btw, and Indian girls are really pretty. Indian guys however....there are some but it's not common....at all. Anyways, Jai Ho was on the radio and even the Pussycat Dolls sang a version of it and in the music the girl dresses like an Indian even though she's not, but she really passes off as it. For our Senior banquet, ever year I push the Bombay party as the theme for it but i'm always shot down. However last year, they made the mistake of asking me to point lead it....muwahhaha and I had our whole Edge class dance do a Jai Ho performance, which was AMAZING BTW.

3. Third, cougars!!! Hot moms, and cougars. There are shows and dang, I don't know. Cougars are just really in at the moment! There's a show that Courtney Cox does called The Cougar, it's a series not a reality show but it's not very good, which made me really sad because I thought there was a lot of potential there. But the show just isn't really well written. Anyways, there was also a cougars convention in SF this summer. http://blogs.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2009/08/hello_ladies_fur_flies_at_bay.php?page=1 As you can see these pictures, the women are not that hot for cougars but silicon up the wahoooooooooo for sure. Maybe the economy is bad and boys are looking for sugar mamas but there is a growing demand for cougars and there's a good amount too!

In conclusion, according to all these fads the hottest thing right now should be an Indian woman who is a cougar who goes for younger girls. Hm...........oh society, what have you done to us?

You Do What You Gotta Do

Do you have a friend who studies last minute the night before and gets an A? The friend who plays all day and then starts to cram at 2AM and gets that A? Or the the who parties all night, wakes up at 5AM and writes their 15 page essay and somehow manages to get an A-? And don't you hate that friend? It sucks.

Now would you rather work really hard and earn an A,

or barely put any effort, do it last minute and earn an A?

Majority of us would choose the latter.

Why is that?

What is so horrible about the idea of putting so much of yourself into something in hopes to achieve great results? But we all rather take the easy route and hope to reap the same benefits. The thing is we're lazy. We rather work half as hard and earn just as much.

But that's not how it should work, and actually that's not how the world works.

Maybe we're afraid of failure. We're afraid to put yourself out there and failing because you end up with nothing and you're hurt. And you might look dumb. But if you were to just half ass something and not get the desirable results, then you see it as well deserved and you didn't really risk anything so it's no big deal.

But if you were to put in the effort and excelled at it, wouldn't you putting in all that effort make it so much more worthy? Would you feel so much more accomplished? And if you tried and failed, doesn't it say something about your character that you tried and gave it your all?

We, and certainly I, half ass a lot of things. I rather play it safe. That needs to end. I want to tap into that passion where I am not afraid to put myself out there. Where I hunger for it and am willing to work hard for it, sweat for it. We're meant to do some things in this world with all our heart, mind, body & soul. We need to start taking risks, and risk ourselves instead of half ass-ing things to get what we want. We need to start earning it.

Share what it is that you want right now.

Show me that you want it.

Labels Are For Soup Cans

A girl wearing a bathing suit at the beach is normal.

A girl wearing a bra and undies in public is not normal & slutty.

Now the thing is, they are both wearing just about the same amount. However we've labeled bathing suits as normal beach wear and bra and undies as things you wear under your clothes. If you were to wear your bra and underwear at the beach, even though it's the same amount you're showing, it'd be weird. The thing is once we've label something to be the norm, that's where it stays. & i'm not trying to say that bra & undies should be normal wear (sorry boys) but i'm just trying to use this example to lead into something. Labeling leads into imposed restrictions.

With that being said, I dislike being labeled. I don't like people making judgments on who they think I am and therefore holding restrictions on my identity and only seeing me in a certain view. Some people may first meet me and label me as a girly girl, but i'm not a girly girl. And some may get to know me and see me as a total tomboy, but i'm not a total tomboy. I'm both. I'm a lot of things. I absolutely hate it also when a person tells me they think I was a cheerleader in high school (not to diss any cheerleaders, bc honestly, I would have been down to try out but I wasn't down to pay the expensive dues) but I played basketball. I like proving people wrong and surprising them. I feel that once you label some one as something you are limiting their abilities. Self fulfilling prophecy. Let's say you label a guy as a jock, and the stereotypical jock is good at sports, kind of dumb and a player. What if he listens to people identifiying him as a jock so much that he just focuses on sports, never studies because he doesn't see the point since he's good at sports and no one expects brains out of him, and he only plays and breaks girls hearts because he's identified as a player and should only play around and never settle down so he misses out on getting to fall in love. We shouldn't be quick on judgments for each other. It's different observing someone and seeing who they are, versus being quick to judge and setting them up to follow through with your expectations.

When I have kids, I don't want to label them and force them to play the piano because that's what the typical Asian kid does, but instead I want to give them the opportunities to try things and see what they like. I want them to be more than just one thing, I want them to feel like they aren't limited to what they are good at but living life because it's about exploring and taking chances.

I have a great amount freedom, and I like trying new things and dislike being restricted. This is why i'm usually down for anything (not drugs though, that's a different point). We are meant for so much more than being labeled and seen in only one view. I'd like to think that i'm capable of many things and refuse to be limited. Today at church, Dave spoke on the topic of unleashing beauty. And he's right in the fact, that we have so much within us that we need to just let go and tap in into ourselves and let out the beauty within us. We are capable of so much, so don't label people, we are so much more than to be labeled just like a soup can.

btw, if you couldn't tell, I have a midterm tomorrow and i'm procrastinating. sigh* & I feel like shit because I think I got sick. Okay gotta cram and hopefully sleep early tonight to rest my body.
