I pulled an all-nighter for the research paper and then went to my morning classes. The FBI session was supposed to be at 1:50pm so I decided to take a nap and set the alarm for 12:50pm. I woke up at 4:13pm.

Damn it!

for the birthday wishes. I love you all and I mean it. I also love the Tangers who DIDN'T wish me a happy birthday, such as Dilated, Kuri, dave. But like I said, I love them anyway and look, I just plugged 'em.

So I had a nice time on my birthday. Invited 40 ppl on FB to celebrate with me the day before my bday (smart, huh? but I only decided to celebrate the day before the day before). Only about six in total to celebrate, but hey! I have pictures to prove it and show me children/grandkiddies (THAT'S your ol' grandmaw at 19). Only about ten-fifteen pics but who the heck cares. I was hap-pie.

Maybe I'll show 'em to you one day. Soon. How many pics/times did I promise you guys?

So, joke of the day for me: Backstory - I'm working on a campaign, right? So we have volunteers and interns, though we don't call them interns. There is a doorbell for downstairs and an extra one, which we keep upstairs by the window in the office(for no particular reason).

Intern: *presses the button*
Ding Dong~~ over our heads
Intern: *jaw-drop* What the heck?!
Co-worker: That's the door bell. We use it downstairs.
Intern: But WHY did it ring?!
Us: ...
Me: Because you pressed the button!

Guffaw. Oh, man, that was hilarious. And it was this really tall, big guy, too.

Toodles~~

English Research Paper
General Topic: Apocalypse
My Chosen Topic: Children

Download File:
http://rapidshare.com/files/299246845/Eng_-_Apocalypse_Children_-_First_Draft.doc.html

Note:
I didn't put a lot of thought into it. It's a first draft in every sense; unpolished, not re-read, just segments forced into a whole. Read and tell me what's what (comment, note me or send me an email to: [email protected]).

Plus, I just realized I didn't mention 'apocalypse' beyond the title. ._.;; Because I already wrote about the apocalypse and its relation to my topic in my proposal...my bad...

Thanks! I really appreciate it. ^0^
-----------------------------------------------------
Btw: I put this up on my Facebook/Blog, too. There's only 10 downloads allowed so tell me if you guys can't download from that link. I'll put up another one.

THANK YOU!!!!

It's been killing me that I don't have my Google Calendar on the go. I FINALLY SYNC-D IT WITH MY PHONE!! No, I don't have an android phone or a Blackberry or a Google phone. No, I didn't download a separate application. I just used the mobile notification thing. Seriously, I never knew what that thing was for. And then, I googled "google calendar sony ericsson phone" took a look at a few things and found it!!! I'm so happy!

Now, I just have to wait for my "Day" notification at 5am to know that it is really working. But I can't wait until 5 am. I have to sleep. Whatever.

Please...pleasepleaseplease work!

我不明白。为什么大人不用为他们的错误为负责呢？我有错，你有错，他也有错。为什么个个都要推在我身上了？说一句对不起有这么难吗？

basically, i have an uncle here from california for the holiday. he's very...self-absorbed, arrogant, childish, immature--oh, why am i repeating myself? he acts like he's the king of the house. not surprising since he was the youngest son of four siblings. but seriously people, he's a grown man of (almost?) fifty. stop acting like that. have some respect for other people. stop acting like you're the center of the freakin universe. for god's sake, just because you're with family doesn't mean you can do whatever you want and there won't be consequences for your actions. oh, wait, there ARE no consequences when it comes to you. wtf? im the youngest in the family now, but i sure as hell dont act like you. it makes me angry because he's so...i can't respect him and because i dont, it makes ME look like bad kid because i'm not respecting an 'adult'. wtf.

so my mom decides to scold me for it and he starts grinning and trying to join in the scolding. im like, YOU want to teach me about respect and how to be polite? (YOU?! are you friggin kidding me?!) aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

and come on, ma. you were the one who did me wrong today. you guys know (at least those who have read my blog for a while now know) how she is. she did it again--i dont really want to talk about it. just because you're an adult and a mom doesnt mean you can do whatever you want and not have to be responsible for your actions. she's always used her being my 'mom' as an excuse to get away with ANYTHING.

for goodness sake, the world DOES NOT work that way. or at least i believe it shouldn't. >.> mothers should be mothers, adults should be adults. but who said the world was fair? this is where my chinese comes in from above...

"I don't understand. Why can't adults take responsibility for their wrong doing(s)? I was wrong, you were wrong, he was also wrong. Why does everything have to be blamed on me? Is it really so hard to say 'I'm sorry'?"

I'm pretty sure I got some verb tenses or something wrong in the Chinese. Hell, I'm just an ABC(American Born Chinese). Without proper training in Chinese, too.

So anyway, no camera. But I've decided it's okay. I'll just get pictures ON my birthday.

Remember my dead Ipod Mini? My mom says she's going to get me a media player w/ radio -- note: media player, not Ipod. But since my mom is getting me one (and herself), I might as well use it. The camera I'll buy myself.

I've also decided to get a group of friends out on my birthday. A night out of fun and laughter. Just be happy on my birthday. I haven't really celebrated a birthday since I was seven or ten. A cake my mom got me last year last minute (the store was closing) and that was it/the first since I was little. I swear all my birthday wishes back then had been: "Uhhh...world peace and everyone be happy." I'm NOT kidding. I never wanted anything. *shrug* I've never had WANTS actually...

Eh-hem. ANYWAY. I'm going to invite this guy I've been crushing on. I've also decided that it's okay, I'm not going to drive myself insane over it. If he likes me, great. If not, I'll live. I have to.

Now I have to choose: go on Facebook and invite people out on my birthday OR read manga online. I actually haven't read manga at all in over a year. I was very surprised to realize I outgrew it. I took a look at some old stuff yesterday and got reminiscing. Time to revisit those good old times.

I cut my bangs all by myself. *proud* =D

So I have this U3 compatible Cruzer retractable micro 4G usb device. I had two but my ma broke the other one and I just recently found where I had put this one. It had been unopened, but my internet failed me and I needed to get a paper done so I used it for the first time to transfer my files between school and home.

Here is the advice I need: to choose between using U3 or PortableApps. On the old one, I used PortableApps and was very satisfied with it. I had never bothered checked out the U3 stuff.

I'm leaning more towards getting PortableApps again and have even decided which applications to download if I should finally choose it. U3 is still quite tempting with its added security of automatic password protection upon insertion. After a certain number of password tries, the device will erase everything. But then I've read that there is a new red desktop shortcut that cannot be disabled with installation of U3. I don't like that. Nor do I like the idea that U3 is not space-efficient--in essence creating a double of every application installed and thus, taking up space that could be used otherwise. Not only that, I currently use Google Chrome as my primary web browser which is not included in the numerous applications/software that U3 has. However, it IS included in PortableApps as a freeware and there is a beta version that syncs the bookmarks between the app and your computer--awesome plus. And I don't need many apps anyway, like I already mentioned, the apps available on PortableApps are good enough. BUT, yes another but, I see that icon to launch U3 and I'm so curious, it's so tempting to click it and try something new.

So...if I should decide to get PortableApps, should I delete the whole package of U3? Or should I give in the childish temptation to play with something new and activate/install U3 and later find some way to put Chrome on there?

Oh, dilemmas...=3
