| is it just me or is xanga missing some formatting options? like the bolding, italicizing and underlining ones? hrm... do not like.
I wore my retainers for the first time in six months a few days ago; it felt nice to be "responsible", as I paid $250 to replace the old ones that didn't fit anymore -_- I haven't worn them since, so maybe I'm not responsible Enough..
I recently found out that the Buddhist class I ABHOR doesn't count for my minor because it's not an upper division course. WHY DID I NOT KNOW they all had to be upper division? :/ and I just started contemplating today whether or not I wanted to take it pass/not pass when the deadline to change the grading option has come.. and gone.. boo.
on a happier note, I do not have to take summer school next year to gradumalate by december! another summer of playtime and making monies! oh wait, I may have to study for the LSAT [if I don't take it in june] because I didn't do it Last summer -_- there go my plans of visiting my papa in Shanghai again..
been [attempting to] follow a set monthly budget and even though it's not quite working, I'm still spending less than I would if I didn't input all my expenditures into my phone, so I guess it's a good thing? it's just so hard, trying to reconcile my desire to have all these pretty things I see in shop windows and online and on people walking down the street with knowing I have to save for when I'm in law school and for necessities in the future (like another laptop, for example - in human years I suppose my macbook is nearing 60 or so). speaking of people walking down the street, why don't people WALK FASTER on telegraph? so fucking annoying.
sometimes I really, really like being a homebody. of course I go out and when I do I generally enjoy myself, but it's just so much easier to sit and ooze and not have to spend all that time getting ready. there are endless possibilities when one is equipped with a computer and intarnets.
I don't like it when people make decisions that affect me without letting me know beforehand even if I'll probably be ok with it. or maybe I'm just ornery about it right now because it's happened two days in a row. I also really dislike the whiny, giggly, loud, ugly, disgusting, I-try-so-hard-to-be-unique-but-I-just-end-up-looking-like-a-damn-fool people of a certain ethnicity. oh, the pain.
at the beginning of my college career I would return home to a certain friend who would tell me "no, Annie, you haven't grown up yet" and now that he and I both agree that I have, I feel rather indignant that there are some around me who haven't matured themselves, but they patronize me by telling me how good it is for me to really be learning from my past mistakes.
a friend of mine imparted to me a great piece of advice she received recently: NEVER settle for someone who doesn't care enough to ask, acknowledge and understand what you need and try his or her best to make you happy by fulfilling ALL of those needs.

| it's taken a whole summer and
a few weeks into the school year, but
I am finally caught up!
--
a good friend of mine told me yesterday that
her favorite character is [though now I suppose it's was] edie britt.
I think edie's quite wonderful as well, my reasons being that
edie's not afraid to be real and tell it like it is
(even if it means she's being terribly arrogant and self-centered),
admit that she can be a bitch, accept that people don't like her
and somehow turn many of her faults into virtues.
I admit, I used to be slightly to embarrassed to
call someone else I know
who resembles edie in those very ways a good friend,
but I am no longer.
she's shown me that she has my back,
and now I have hers.

| if you wanna pump it,
pump it loud
if you wanna shake it,
shake it now
if you got your ticket, well,
join the crowd
move to the music,
move to the music, come on!
--
not their lyrics,
but I went to my first concert
with Kenneth and Tiffany last week!
[sorry Kenneth, I really wanted to use that heart emoticon..]
and caught a guitar pick with my hair!
I can't seem to locate my camera (or its usb cord)
so I had to take this with my phone..
wristband, ticket, guitar pick :)
and on a random note, look at the cool.. knot thing
I put in my hair while I was supposed to be studying : )

| when occasionally those people one is closest to become incredibly annoying. | | |
| my bosses are out of the office so I thought I'd indulge in some.. slack off-age. let's see, 1 canceled summer school because I am burned out.. as is evidenced by my spring semester grades;
2 therefore I am working 50+ hours a week, which isn't as bad as I thought it would be but I really don't get much done after I get home but the money is :D;
3 haven't cleaned my room in two and a half weeks.. which doesn't sound like a lot, but if you know me, then you know it's pretty bad;
4 decided to start watching desperate housewives (maybe I can catch up before it starts again in the fall?);
5 and I love Lucy, from netflix;
6 discovered an adorable + funny little show mondays on ABC at 10 called "here come the newlyweds";
7 berkeley weather sucks; if thunderstorms are on the forecast, please rain, so I don't carry around my giant umbreller like a loser;
8 cooking and being cooked for is rather nice;
9 bought tickets for Transformers: IMAX :);
10 recently discovered that I do like strawberries and mangos;
11 having a yogurtland in berkeley was much more exciting when I was anticipating it;
12 my iPhone's been acting up :(:(:( and
13 this time, I am/we are going to do it right.
