I'm hungry and I wanna eat meat...where's my meatball? Nothing to talk about, life is boring. Here's a blogthing that will give you a peek into my soul.

Your Psyche is Red

You are bright, bold, energetic, and intense. Your upbeat, zany energy inspires those who are down. Spontaneous and playful, you also have a courageous and fearless side. When you are too red: you are angry, overprotective, and truly scary. When you don't have enough red: you are depleted and lifeless.

Hello, be respectful BOW DOWN TO ME. For I am your mother. Call me ma, sweetie, it'll make me so very happy. ^-^

I paid the phone bill last minute today. Just now in fact, a few minutes ago? Yeah. Oh, and I had to transfer funds from savings account over to checking account before that. I tranferred funds not a week ago for the electric bill--paid that, too. The rent was needed the week before that--transferred then, too.

I really shouldn't have helped her out last month when we found out it was overdrawn. Once turned into twice, thrice, frice. But I know that if I don't do it, no one will. Oh, she will, but only a week after it was due and late fees were in effect and she realizes that she realized too late.

So I brought it up over the phone when I called to say I had the bill paid. She said, "Thanks. Good girl." I said, "Either I do the bills from now on or you pay me 50 bucks for every time I paid it before and in the future." She says, "Hey, I'm your mother! How can you talk to me like that? *laugh* What, do you pay the rent? (uh, duh, I just did)" I say, "Ts. Whatever, bye." I know she's not really listening to me. She won't pay me or give me the bill-paying responsibilty/'power'.

She doesn't like that, me having 'power'. No matter what. In anything. But I'll bet that I end up paying 'em anyway. Plus all the late fees.

Ehh, whatever. That's life. Mine, anyway. ;)

Latah!

[This was supposed to be up last night. So pretend it's 12 hours ago.]

"When you think about life, you shouldn't live or die for yourself, but think about the others of your kind first." My mother said that, something to that effect, about the today's shooting and how the shooter was supposedly 'of asian descent' (quote from abc). I say 'to the effect', because it was in Chinese and that's the basic meaning of what she said. She moaned and declared, "If he's Chinese, that's going to make a lot of trouble." She's referring to the impact that fact could have on the american POV of asians in general and chinese specifically.

When I first heard her say it, I sort of froze and asked mildly, "So I shouldn't do something I like or enjoy or want because it might have a (negative) effect on 'us'?" Us, being 'us' as a race/ethnicity. She answered with, "If you're going to do something like that(in this case, suicide), you should think about others/the consequences before doing it or don't do it. Don't involve other people in it." Though I do agree with the latter, I was still a bit eyebrow-raised at the whole idea. This is one of those times that I realize that my parents and I do have different views on things. Just because they raised me and influenced me so much doesn't mean we think alike. I should know that firsthand from the obvious difference between our minds during day-to-day disputes and conversations.

Yes, it was wrong of him to go on a shooting spree. Yes, his shouldn't have been the finger on the trigger for the biggest shooting massacre in the history of our country. But he's not wrong for being upset. If he wanted to die, if he couldn't take it anymore, it's not his fault for wanting to end it. It's not wrong to be selfish and want to end the unhappiness in your life, to stop yourself from drowning and falling further. Don't blame him for what comes after. Yes, he shouldn't have turned to murder in his pain. Blame him for the deaths, blame him for that horrible massacre, but no more.

"You know...once a girl turns twenty, it's a short ride to the big three-oh (30)."
I'm 19. Thanks, mom!

@thaitanic: =3 or :3 is an Asian thing, I suppose. It's the mouth being pursed or flattened and curved on the side. Like try to make that face, you'll kinda get what I mean. Japanese girls do it to look cute. I do it kinda as a shrug...=P

Based upon ikimashokie's advice, I have decided to use PortableApps. I don't know if I'm gonna delete U3 though...should I? Hmm...

No internet for a few days until today. Should I download PortableApps, watch BBC's Cranford online or catch up on Off Pedder?

Hoo, boy. I've been gone a few days and suddenly I'm logged outn of NuTang. Barely remembered my password, too. >.>'' Anyway...

I've been hired as choreographer! Well, to be hired, you must be paid, but still! I'm choreographer! Not officially or to some big-ass production/company/show, but whatever. There's a Mother's Day dinner event coming up and I'm choreographing hip hop as one of the main attractions for the night.

Granted, I'm a folk dancer, but what the heck, I'm still a dancer, right? I had performed for them(the organization hosting this) before so they called us again. ^-^ This time I'm choreographer. Ooh, how I love saying that word...for now, at least.

Sooo...first rehearsal/meet is this Sat. at 10am. We've chosen the music, unlessone of 'em decide tehy don't like it. We've got about four of us so far, but one is still awaiting approval of de guardiannes.

More later. Toodles!

Ooh, I love that word. *shiver* Hah, I'm kidding! Well, it does make me feel special. ;)

Anyway, we picked a song last week, but changed it Saturday morning. We went on to the dance routine and got the beginning down. We met after my teaching seesion yesterday and perfected the beginning and a bit of the middle. I think we've got at least half of it down already. ('-^)=b

However...one of the girls called today, she's grounded so she's out. That makes it the three of us. Originally, I was just going to choreograph it because I have class until 7pm, but now they say the performance should be at about 8pm. So I guess I'll make it. Though my level of Saturday exhaustion is still under consideration...>.>

Anybody got some suggestions for me? Any special moves? Things you like, wanna try out, etc.? All are welcome!

Yes, that's right. I was able to hang out with my friends today for the first time in forever. Well, depends on who, no? My friends who actually went to college which is most of everyone. Not all people can do like me and go take a year off. Many people don't understand actually. *shrug* Not my problem.

We went ice-skating today. The first time this winter and I never went last winter. And we skated for about...3 hours before leaving to have dinner. Thing is, we were really close to my house and it was absolutely crazy cold today--single digits--and I WANTED TO GO HOME. And of course, I also had my own plan: get japanese food, stay in, and curl up with some TV--or rather, streaming video online.

Actually, I started watching Goong. XD I was just curious why it was so popular. It's like Twilight or Naruto. I didn't like it because it was popular. But like Twilight, I tried it and I liked it. ;) I also started watching Prince of Tennis: Chinese version and liked that, too. But only watching Goong right now.

But! But. They forced me to go eat dinner with them. Forced me down the subway and literally herded me into a turnstile, swiped the metrocard, and pushed me in. *sigh* No problem. To Korea Town we went and had some nice spicy food. Wasn't bad. Got pretty full. Left at around 8:30pm.

Then! Then. More herding/kidnapping. One person on each side with elbows interlocked with mine. *sigh* Walked this way for about three blocks? Along the way, someone started tickling me. >.< And then we realized we had left someone behind. Yeah. So tickler left us and I got away. Hooray! FREEDOM! Came home. Turned on laptop. And here I am. ;)

Night, guys!
More Goong. ;)
