  • scattered sophies

    my hairstylist asked me what my current life motto was...i told her it was to survive. she laughed and exclaimed at me saying that I was too young to have that even be a possibility. maybe, but i'm not inclined to change my answer.

    it's true.

    sometimes i'm proud of what i'm able to do considering what kind of student/person i was in the past. but mostly i feel i'm at a high stress state, where i'm both panic/frenzy and cold/calm.

    i watched the UFC match this past weekend and am impacted by it. so much training, so much ability, and they were both so sharp and quick on their feet (figuratively & literally). so so impressive. really well matched too. hope i get to see the rematch if it happens.

    got to find someplace to be for halloween now that sarah hooked it up with a costume idea! fun!

    what am i willing to give up? is there anything to give up?

    professor knows my name! exciting and alarming at the same time.

    i really hope it helps. it'll be interesting with someone of a different gender. and different religious background?

    sometimes i get excited about occupational therapy, and other times i feel like it's something i've already been doing and it gets called OT. hope that's a good thing...

     

    es 10:20...time to get to work and then some sleeps. hasta!

  • i am having  a nice morning to myself. i feel like i've been going going going but haven't had the time or the luxury to just chill with myself. there are so many things i wanted to do this morning. run at the beach, watch a dvd with in the quiet morning with the on again off again relationship with the sun we seem to be having today. work on my paper, brunch with friends, call a boy, clean, lay on the floor. so far, i have started working on my paper, ate a chocolate chip bagel in bed, and am off to brunch with jams and the hs boys, wish there was time for everything!

    people say don't settle for less...but what if less is more than what you have now?

  • jiunn and i were talking about how everyone's coming down this weekend and how i would rather friends come a little at a time versus a chunk of my close friends randomly coming all during one weekend...

    me:      why don't u guys spread this out
    me:      so i can spend more quality time
               seriously
    Jiunn:   haha nah
               ull have fun this way
               either way = fun time
    me:      spread out the fun
               like if you had a piece of toast
               and you had one huge ass chunk of peanut butter just on one quarter of it
    me:      only that bite would be extremely peanut buttery and you would be dying of thirst but if         u spread it out, you can enjoy it longer and the whole experience is very pleasant
    Jiunn:   id eat it all
               in front of u
               while laughing
               one bite
    Jiunn:   muahahahaha
               gulp
    me:      that's ok jiunn way, because i don't like peanut butter
    Jiunn:   oh nevermind
    me:      i would watch you eat it all
               then u would laugh
    me:      and then choke
    me:      because while u were eating that
               i would have finished all the milk
               and then you would be like..."aaron burr! aaron burrrr!"
               but no one would be able to hear you
    Jiunn:   ....
    me:      because your mouth is full of dry, peanut buttered bread.

  • what an excellent long weekend...and i need to re-emphasize LONG.

    i've had a full week with the first week of fall session, working before or after classes, getting used to a new schedule, getting back into a disicplined sleeping schedule.

    i'm so grateful that given the intensity of these past 3 months, i haven't gotten sick despite the physical and mental strains which usually get me sick.

    God seems to be giving me juuuusst that much more when i'm getting used to the load he gave me right before.

    friday i had a satisfying night of lacma, wine, cheese, tomatoes on the grass, 45 minutes with a museum almost all to ourselves, warm nights, more wine, piano, brian mcknight improv, and good chillin. saturday i worked myself to zhombie status, rushed home to get ready for the circus that is vietnamese weddings, got home late and finally went to bed around 5 in the morrrrnn. that means i was up for 23 hours yesterday!

    today i am a zhombie. slow and spacey. taking pleasure in the moments that was this weekend and trying to push myself to move and get productive and take position for fall semester. its 3pm and i'm still in my pajamas.

     

    yes, it's been a while. whats up weblog.

  • earthquakes, war, end times galore

    i forgot what earthquake was in korean and ended up telling my grandma the shakes we were experiencing were due to war.

    my grandma: "mo yah? jee keum?"

    me: "JUHN JENG HALMUHNEE! JUHN JENG!!!"

    grandma: "euh?"

    me: "wait. what's earthquake in korean..."

     

    i had to demonstrate: "halmuhnee, my hand is the ground..." then proceeded to move my hand back and forth.

    my grandma: "ohhh.....jee jeennnnnn"

     

    so for you non korean speakers, jee jeen is earthquake and juhn jeng is war. when our house started moving, i started screaming "WE'RE IN WAR!!!" in my grandmother's ear.
