A Little Bit  
Even the smallest person in the universe needs a daily dose of ego booster.

THE MAJORITY OF THIS JOURNAL IS FRIEND-ONLY

Friend me if you want, and I'm not that fussy to friend you back.

Fine. I can see the foreboding GPA drop this semester. I'll probably tank all my classes this semester. Fine.

The problem is, well, I couldn't find it in me to motivate myself.

Come on, summer break. Come soon!

I carelessly, stupidly tanked my exam today, but during the post-exam dinner, I got a lot of hugs from my classmates. And that's awesome. I think it's been months since I came back to school that I've received a full hug. Again, awesome.

Then my mom told me that there's an explosion in my brother's plant yesterday. Luckily, there's no casualty since it wasn't the alcohol tank that exploded. But it didn't mean my hands weren't shaking when I wrote this down. Didn't mean that my heart didn't stop beating for a nanosecond. Didn't mean that I didn't suddenly realize how intimidating this distance really was.

I'm on my own.

Why Dianna why  
shirtgate

She's still one of my favorite celebrities out there, even if it's just for this brief moment of courage.

And I kinda feel sorry for her now, I really do.

Spoiler for the latest Naruto chapter  
I stopped reading Naruto, or more correctly manga that is, a long, long, long time ago. However, a friend, apparently remembering that I used to worship Neji, told me to read the latest chapter of Naruto.

( My heart broke all over again.Collapse )

Fuck you, Kishimoto. Fuck you.

Winter break  

I literally lost weight in these last two weeks, and now that I've seen the proof I believe why everybody keeps saying that. Turns out grad school is the best diet you can do! *snickers*

I'll be of to San Fransico and Los Angeles for my winter break. Couldn't stand the East Coast chill, that is. Been there, done that in Buffalo and that's enough. And nowadays Norfolk is, though sans snow, constantly around 48 deg F. San Fran, be nice and less foggy!

Then after that (now this is the most important part), I'm off to Orlando for some more heat and the sun. Disney World, wait for me!

I'm planning a New Year postcard spree, so anyone wants me to send you one, let me know.

I'm never the good student.

I major in procrastination with a minor in daydreaming and time-wasting.

My friends said I might have an ADD. I don't think so. I can concentrate and write excellent papers, thank you. It's just that I get bored easily. Now I find something that is more interesting than my major. (Is it a sign that says my major isn't my passion? I don't know.

The bottom line: I still don't know what I want.

I think I need professional help.

*sigh*

DC, I love you!

Just got back from my 3-day, 10-hour-on-my feet trip from Washington, DC. What is not to love about a city that houses amazing museums?

Glee in Japanese dub  
I know it's beyond late, but I just saw some video of Glee in Japanese dub. And I died.

Sakamoto Maaya as Rachel is. Just. Perfect. And it doesn't hurt that Mizuki Nana voices Quinn.

Anyone has download access or links to the version?

Anyone here reads Ajahn Brahm?  
So... who is this man?

I first knew him from my brother, who is an avid reader of his books, and became interested in his writing myself. He mostly used story to convey his message of inner peace and happiness, but which Great Teachers don't do that? At first I got the impression that he's a happy-go-lucky monk with an easy smile, or a Westerner who's simply find his way on a road that the Western world couldn't offer, but it's what enables him to reach out to people: that we are looking for happiness because we don't realize it's in us.

Here's one of my favorite quotes of his:

"For everything that has happened, thank you. For everything that will happen, alright."
