Dammit, not asleep yet.

Since I have absolutely nothing to do, I think I shall update.

So, I've been awake since yesterday.
Daniel and I decided it would be AWESOME.. NO wait. EPIC to stay up all night playing games, watching movies, and drinking LOTS of Caffeine just because we can.

Throughout the whole night I've been wanting sleep, but I made myself stay up till 7.

So.. 7am came and the sun started to rise.. guess what happened? My biological clock reset and now I am fully awake. NOT GOOD.

I tried to wear myself out by cleaning the house, doing the laundry, ANDEVENGOINGOUTTOTHETENNINSCOURTS to play.. no such luck.

Daniel is happily sleeping in bed now and I am still fully awake.. typing to no one.

SIGH.



This is the result of NO SLEEP.

But now its different, I made new friends.. although I still miss hanging out with my high school friends more.. xD

I dont really know what else to say.. so random update!

So, within the past 2 weeks, I've gotten sick. TWICE.
That is so not fun. Everytime I cough my lungs hurt REALLY bad. I dont think that damn Tylenol is working. ):
Yesterday was my bf's and I's 2nd year anniversary and he gave me a whole bunch of surprises! That will be a day I will never forget. <3

Anyways, Bio psych, Midterm tomorrow! Huzzah for condensing my 10 page notes into a 4x6 cheat sheet! :D

The most amazing-

BROWNIES. EVER. Walnut and Caramel...and special ingredients. >:D

Man. MAAAAAN. Man. The walnuts. The Caramel. ohh man.

This is what pms-ing does to you- makes you want chocolate. Even for a person like me- who DOES NOT like sweets (esp. chocolate) in general. Man, I am digging this stuff. xD

On another note!




This is how I look like this this amazingly pretty dress my daddy bought me. I can no longer exchange this dress at Forever 21 so instead I am making it a personal goal for my BOOBS to fit into it nice and snuggly. Forever 21 makes dresses for typical Asian girls, but as you can see I am no average Asian girl. I am way taller..and chubbier...and I have huge boobs. ><

I am doing lots of exercise so I can lose weight to fit into it. (:


Wish me luck!

Lately...

So, I realized I haven't updated for a while, so I am gonna list some memorable things I've done or thought was interesting over the past month.
How I met your mother:

Ted: You're not... Moby, are you?
Not Moby
: Who?
Ted: The recording artist, Moby.
Not Moby
: Oh, no.
Ted
: Then why, when we said "Hey, Moby" did you come over here?
Not Moby: Oh, I thought you said Tony.
Ted
: So your name's Tony?
Not Moby: No.




Barney: It's gonna be legend-... wait for it... and I hope you're not lactose intolerant because the second half of that word is DAIRY!


Those, my friends are some of my favorite scenes from How I met your mother, the t.v. show. ( I spent a lot of time watching that show. I love N.P.H.)

For the Fourth of July Weekend, my grandma came to visit from HK, and my cousin/uncle came to visit from NY. This meant tourist-y trips to SF, Oakland, and Davis. Lots of shopping, sight seeing and yummy food was involved. (:

yee- turtle made outta bread in SF. (:

ok, too many pictures I want to post up, but it would be ridic.
I went to a wedding in Santa Cruz on July 6th..or was it 7th? Right after the wedding I headed over to Sunset Beach for some Camping.
This last weekend, I went to a party with D and his family where I met M, L, Y&Y. They are really cool people who can suuure handle their alcohol. :O

This fall, I will be going to community college- I HAVE TO TAKE THIS STUPID ASSESMENT TEST FOR MATH. ): Math is def. not my strong suit. Thank god D is kind enough to help me review. <3

San Jose for the week

Many come home from a year of college just to hang out with friends and catch up with people.

I come home from Davis hoping to do the same, but my mother thinks I come home to be a baby sitter. *sigh*

At least I had a little bit of fun.

Saturday: Hang out with friends, go swimming and attended a birthday party. (I really like Viet food haha.) Also, my friend D really needs to learn how to drive his stick shift.

Sunday:
Nothing, stayed home. *cries*

Monday:
Went out to Dan's house, played badminton and hung out with his friends. It was nice catching up with them.

Tuesday: Sunset Beach! I went with my younger brother's badminton team. Besides getting lost for 2 hours in a car cramped with 8 other people, the food and games were fun. We also stopped by a strawberry field...and some of them picked some fresh strawberries to eat. *illegally* Oh, and my younger brother lost his house key and bicycle key. Not to mention: fall into the ocean with his 200 dollar cell.

Wednesday: I was spose to go out with Dan and hang out his friend B. My mom lost her car keys (what a coincidence) and refused to let me leave the house. Instead I stay home all day with NO INTERNET and napping. Luckily Dan agreed to come over to my house for a couple of hours where we played different games on the wii.

The beach is actually quite peaceful when you go off alone to comtemplate life.


Lets see how the rest of the week plays out. (;

Automatic Fail

I fail at life.
It seems to me that I encounter bad things from one right on to the next.
My Quest to getting a Driver's License:
When I finally decide to GET my driver's license my parents lose my original birth certificate. I then have to request for a new one from the government which took about 5-6 months including the period in which I had to ask two friends in Davis to swear on my behalf that I am in fact Maggie Yue. After I get my birth certificate I go get my permit. After passing, I realized I had forgotten my glasses for the vision test.
This means another trip to the DMV.
FINALLY Today I go to take my test- and guess what? The car I am driving is not mine but Dan's. He loses he Insurance and registration in the car and cant seem to find it. After being nearly late for my test I am FINALLY IN THE CAR READY FOR MY TEST.
All seems well as I am showing all the signals, buttons and such. The instructor gets in the car and I drive for about 3 minutes until we hit the first intersection with a three-way stop sign.
A car from my left randomly appears there (which usually doesnt happen). I stop and keep going completely ignoring that car I cannot seem to see with my eyes.
Result? Automatic fail for violating the right-of-way of that non-existent left turn vehicle.

I will never be able to drive.

On top of that, I have a kink on my neck, a HUGE migraine.

I hope things get better this week.

I just might be nocturnal.

I find my self wide awake at night so full of energy; and the exact opposite during light hours.

What is wrong with me?

My apartment is a mess right now and I am trying to muster up the energy to start cleaning. My sleepiness is making my body lazy.

This summer I shall go to Gym more and work off my fat. ):

Should be Studying...

Instead I am chilling online, thinking of napping, rereading the Harry Potter series (while reading a great book called Dandelion Wine), and browsing the net.

I Should be:

1) Doing a 8 page paper on Chinese New Years Traditions
2) Studying for Chinese
3) Doing a 4 page analysis on International Policy
4) Doing another 4 page analysis on Anne Moody's Coming of Age in Mississippi
5) Cleaning the Apartment
6) NOT WRITING ON HERE.

Yet here I am...again. .____.

I might just get started now.. Or I might be napping.

Almost ending

Hah, that reminds me of...err. something.

Anyways, my first year of college is coming to an end...and what do I have to show for it? Absolutely nothing.
I've discovered that taking multiple political science classes is a big no no. Annnndd that I am starting to question whether or not I'd like to major in Political Science.

The only subject I seem to even remotely enjoy is Chinese- which is also a pain the butt to learn. I got docked off a couple of points on my vocab. quiz for writing in capitalization!! ):

I think the one thing that I miss most since college has started are my friends. I've retain barely any form of a social life since school has got me going with midterms and papers and etc..


on second thought, I wouldnt mind becoming a lawyer just for this!

Heat Makes me sleepy

Heat Makes me sleepy.
Its only April and its already 90 degrees out. ):
I have a huge paper due on two days and I have yet to start on it.


Saturday was Davis' Picnic Day- I wanted to go but I had too much homework and needed to get ready for Dan's Birthday party at the house. It was suppose to be a potluck but I ended up cooking most of the food. I made Pesto (homemade) and rosemary potatoes that everyone loved.

We first decorated my apartment then went for a dip at the pool. (Marco Polo is a lot funner with more that 2 people)

After some boardgames and food we partied college style!
I had no idea a drinking game could turn out so fun! ('cept when I got the last king and had to try and drink that nasty mixture of absolute vodka-orange juice-merlot-rootbeer and something drink)

I proceeded to fall of my chair.


Furthermore, I would like to announce that I will not be residing in San Jose for the summer holidays. Davis is where I'll be.):




I miss cuddling them. to bad Its too hot to sleep with anything now.

Classes

So.. I lost my bus pass. No more bus. That means... HURRAYBIKINGWITHMAJORALLERGIESSHOOTME.):

Annnddd...

My mother called me late last night to inform me that they were moving out of San Jose and into Santa Clara (i.e. Valley Fair area).
Since she lost my certified Birth Certificate, that means no ID for me and no drivers license for at least another 5 months. And guess what that means? I get to go heellllaaa far to see my High School friends at Santa Teresa. If I can even hitch a ride.

As of right now I am going to be missing my ENGWRIT class and USHIST class for the second time. ): I was doing so well this semester...how did I get to be so lazy? It must be the biking thats discouraging me. ):
Oh well...off to study for POLSCI!~

GOVT.

"California is on a curve. Not even a curve...a trajectory.
People get frustrated with government..."

DUH.

"Better looking candidates actually do Do better than ugly people. In fact I had a girl in one of my classes intent on convincing everybody how suave Bill Clinton is. I just keep telling her to let it go... "

"I once had two [idiot] students who asked if me if they could do extra credit. guess what they did? They made a joke phone call about killing the president. Then they were held for 7 hours in the interrogation room"

Ah, I love my prof.
