so i've been home for about 2 1/2 weeks.. leaving in a bout 8 days..
being home can be so fun.. yet can be very tiring and annoying sometimes.. i find at least
being home.. and getting to visit with friends can be so entertaining.. especially if u haven't seen them in a while and you're all catching up :)
done lots of fun stuff with all the friends since i've been back.
gone shopping DT @ eatons, gone clubbing, hung out at ppl's houses, celebrating 21'st birthdays @ chuck E cheese... (yes i have weird friends. i kno), bowling, movie, pastry run DT, more shopping, and piggin out.. i luv it all
but on the other hand.. being home means having to deal with parents.. nag this and nag that.. be home by this hour or this n that. dun get me wrong.. i luv my parents n all but its hard having to share a roof with them after u've been away for so long..
come september.. im prolly gonna go insane.. moving home after 3 years away from home..awww geez. i wanna start crying already. .
:(
leaving in 9 days.. still yet have so much to do.. more shopping.. more hanging out.. packing.. school stuff...
i may sound like a nerd when i say this.. but I"m SO EXcITED.. to go shopping for all my skewl stuff..
i get to buy knives, and a new food processor and new stand mixer... and all my book.. and my uniforms.. hehe.. my lil chef hat...
haha.. yes i've actually started to turn into a nerd.. hard to believe but true.. :) :)

1692 days ago..
a tragedy struck the world. a tragedy that to this day still affects living beings in this world
what tragedy you ask ? that would be sept 11, 2001. i'm pretty sure i need not remind anybody what happened on that day..
1692 days later.. i found myself sitting in a movie theatre with a friend of mine watching the highly controversial "united 93"
the movie was nauseating.. physically, mentionally and somewhat spiritually..
first: the cinematography of the movie was very dizzy.. thats the only way i can think of putting it.. tho.. i do hafto say it totally made sense with the movie
secondly: the event itself. to this day i can't totally understand the full context of the incident.. what triggered it? is there really a conspiracy into this incident?? can we really just use this tragedy to justify all the other issues it brings up?
thirdly: the visuals.. the utter truth of the story and how it happened.. made me really be thankful for how lucky i am.. lucky that i've never been subjected to this type of extremity, how fortunate i am to not lost anybody in the tragedy.. just fortunate in general
fourthly: the people on that plane.. i found myself realizing.. if i was on that plane.. i prolly wouldn't have done anything. i don't think i could have gotten the courage to fight back like they did.. and i guess that thought of myself as somewhat of a coward scares me.. people say that in special events like that, people do extraordinary things.. adrenaline rush.. whatever u wish to think of it as.. those people definetly rose to the occasion and did their utter best.. in the end.. they lost their lives.. but they did it for a greater cause. they saved other ppl's lives.. and they showed us that if we fight back against those who do us wrong, we can win. if we just try.
i remember being at school that day, and at first, everybody thought it was some sort of a joke.. some ppl even were saying that the French bombed the States.. i don't really know why.. but it wasn't really till after noon that the seriousness of the incident finally kicked in.. and having gone to a private skewl, where kids' parents work all over the world, including NYC and Washinton, i distinctly remember kids lining up at the pay phone and using their cell phones to call family and friends.
and in the weeks and months that followed. i noticed that people started being with family and attending religious ceremonies more, all because they were afraid.. of losing family.. dying.. amongst many things.
but now, 1692 days later, where have all those people gone? i no longer see the majority of them at any religous ceremonies, i no longer hear of the urge and need to be with your family. in fact 5 years later, i've heard less.
on a different issue.. i think the tragedy has only made some ppl worse in nature. more discrimination, very prejudice.
not to say that these people weren't that way beforehand, but its become so more common and more every-day occurences..
many times that i have travelled across the border, or left the country, i have witnessed such incidents. many times while travelling on a bus, on a plane, just walking around, i have witnessed such incidents.
y must we as the human race think badly of others? are we not all the same? we all came from the same place, born of mothers and fathers, siblings to brothers and sisters?? whats makes us feel that we're better than others? whats makes them less worthy than we?
y must we assume because one was wrong, and commiteed a bad deed, that all are wrong and will/have committed bad deeds?
if your father was a thief, does that mean you are?
if your mother was a prostitute, does that mean you are?
of course not, we make all our own decisions, and we are all unique. we all do things different.
so y is that we think that if it was a group of middle-eastern people who hijacked planes and crashed into the World Trade Centre, that all will.
what gives us the right to search them and question them at the airports, and not others?
are we not just as likely to commit crimes?
the last time i checked, there was not engraving of the word terrorist on their foreheads.. never has and most never will. you can never judge somebody by how they look.
in the end... all i have to say is this.. watching the movie .. for me was a good experience.. it brought back many issues that i have long forgotten about.. things that should be an issue for me, and for everybody else..
i, myself, am guilty of discrimination.
using racial slang, racial discrimination, racial profiling..
its something that i didn't think i did.. but i realize i do.. and i'm ashamed of myself for doing so..
but the most important thing is.. learn from our mistakes.. and change for the better..
if anything we must learn from all of this..
i don't even really know if any of this is making sense to myself, let alone anybody else..
i guess i just needed to get it off my chest
so plz. if the next time you see me or talk to me, and you hear me say something that i should not, do remind me..

case in point:
i already have numerous boxes filled w/stuff.. but i still have a whole bookcase of cd's and books and binders yet to pack
my comp, my printer, my monitor, my humidifier, keyboard yet not packed.. and all the crap on my desk
the stuff i have packed already.. 2 boxes.. 3 small suitcases and one big suitcase.not even close
2 drawers still with crap inside.. plus shoes..and did i mention that i still have crap in the kitchen tOO?? all my kitchen supplies have yet to be touched.. man i sux!
i have too much crap.. and i only have 6 days to pack it all.. and i'm working monday-thursday too :( boo..

April 21, 2006
so its been a while since i last blogged.. and not much has happened.. crazy easter season is officially over.. pretty hectic.. but surprisingly not as hectic as it was at valentines..
this will be my last week at LS for now.. don't kno if i'll be back in windsor in september so i may or may not be there..
and then i'm going back to T.O and then there for 3 weeks or so.. then hong kong..
but before i leave for hk... got lots planned to do..
this week: work basically monday - thursday, have a inventory shift on saturday nite.. then going with the LS crew.. prolly to 29th park..
going home 1st week of may..
going to see rent with the high skewl crew.. sweets expo with colts.. pastry run DT with the girls.. shopping.. movies.. hanging out..
gotta come back to windsor . prolly last weekend b4 i leave.. pre-celebrate the mouse's july birthday.. prolly shopping in michigan and a few nites out in D-town maybe??
doing all of that.. on top of deciding my plans for september..
ppl keep on asking.. here's all i hafta say about that. if u still don't get the answer.. then ur really not too bright.. haha
i think i have a pretty good idea where i'm going.. just gotta figure out living accomadations mainly..
living DT is too expensive.. but i really don't wanna live at home... when u'ved moved out for 3 years.. u really don't wanna move back..i luv home and all.. but permanently would be just too much.. i enjoy my freedom too much..
so if i can somehow convince the 'rents to fork out the $ for living DT, i should be good.. plus i'll have easier chance of finding job DT since so many bakeries & restaurants uptown and DT..
i'll have made my definite choice by may 15th.. deadline.. so if u really wanna know definete answer.. ask after the 15th..
leaving for hk on the 24th..
up till june...prolly just chill at home, confirm job or jobs, maybe go back to dai leung with my grams to visit my cousins and my lil cousin first removed..hung hung.. haha.. didn't have the time to visit them last summer.. so might do it before my jobs start..
june , july, and august.. working.. macau weekend trip.. maybe either taiwan/japan weekend trip with sibs? still in works.. shopping.. eat out.. sing k.. hang out with fams, hk friends, windsor fobs in hk.... gonna be one really packed summer..
come back on sept 1.. and that will be the end of my sumer... lots to do till then.. so yup

so wednesday..
was prolly my most clumsiest day of earth..
i knocked over a whole back wall of boxes.. filled with chocolates.. including hundreds of hollow chocolates.. not a good thign.. when all your store sells is chocolates.. and its easter season..
and one of those many boxes fell onto the other wall, which has like 3 shelves.. all filled with paper work.. not kewl.. all the binders fell. paper fell, microwave fell... shelf fell and broke.. not kewl not kewl..
then i go to offer samples.. trip and drop the whole plate of chocolate...
and lastly i drop a whole 5lb box of chocolate toppers...
man i'm surprised my manager hasn't fired me yet.. thats like over 1000's of $$$$ of goods i've broken.. so bad
at least on the bright side.. my co-workers got a whole lot of laugh outta it.. it was a pretty dead day.. and it would have been quite boring otherwise..
i'm the biggest KLUTZ ever!!!

y do i care so much?
y does it matter so much what they think?
y can't i just grow past this?
y can't i just drop everything and go?
am i being overly sensitive?
is it just me?
why does it bother me so much more than others?
would leaving make it worse or better?
i just need to get past this all.. i need to.. i have to.

if not to make my life only worse...
friday morning.. i officially sprained my ankle.. boo hoo.. :(
just like every nite.. had my sleeping problems... couldn't sleep..
cept friday .. i had to wake up early for an optometrist appointment.. so i ended up falling asleep friday morning at like 6.. woke up at like 9... then walk to bus stop... right by the bus stop.. had a "PK" moment and fell.. and then felt my ankle and foot really really hurt.. unable to stand on it for like an hour..
limped to see the optometrist.. and limped home.. all while in pain.. finally got an appointment at the student medical centre..
doctor's prognosis.. i've sprained my ankle.. won't heal for 3-6 weeks.. :(
i've been ordered to not walk too much.. and try and spend as much time as i can off my feet..
which is really hard.. since i'm working.. and its easter season.. which means LS is as busy as can possibly be. and i really wanna work and not stay at home.. hmm??
hopefully my ankle will heal quickly..
right now it only hurts when i'm leaning on it the wrong way or pushing all the weight on that ankle.. otherwise.. its not too bad.. i can walk but limping..
hmm.. maybe its all the Motrin ??? hey..at least it works..
on a better note... i'm gonna be spending the summer in T.O.. and i got 2 job interview this Monday & Tuesday... camp counsellor and camp activity leader sorta stuff..
which means i'm gonna be home Monday and Tuesday... gonna be hectic kidna
taking early morning train out on monday .. and back to windsor tuesday nite..
wish me luck.

not until recently have i realized how often people, myself included, don't pay enough attention to the things and the people around us. And majority of the time, we won't
notice until it comes down to the most crucial moment.
it makes me wonder. how many times have i not paid attention? not noticed? and by my not noticing, how many times have i made others felt lonely, upset, sad? i can't give a definete answer cause i honestly can't even count how many times. but i do know that, all those times could have been avoided if i had just not been so self-absorbed.
if i had taken the time to just say hi, taken the time to make a simple phone call, so much could been avoided. all the unhappy moments, all the tears, all the sad emotional thoughts that i may have caused others.
just in the same, i've felt that before. others have made me feel that way.. should i not have taken a hint? do unto others as u would do unto them. i kno what it feels like but yet i choose to do the same.
and now, its too late. theres nothing i can do to undo what i've done.
the only thing that i can do is to learn from my mistake and to know not to do it again.. this all, can just be a reminder to myself of what i've done wrong and what i can do to make it right again.

FRIGGIN hafta RANT!
in the last few days. i've got so pissed off at ppl around me.. i guess for some reason. all the holding it in .. i finally had to explode..
yesterday.. started good.. work 8 hrs. made over $1000 in sales.. broke my own record.. so was in a really good mood.. until like 4 pm.. my friends had wanted to go watch a movie.. i didn't really wanna but i decided to go anyway.. cuz if i didn't go .. they would not have been able to cuz i have the only car.. on tues.. thye messaged me saying they wanted to go see curious george.. and so i went to buy curious george tickets.. i called them to confirm and whatever b4hand.. they're like ok whatevewr.. 2 hours after.. thye message me saying they voted and all this shit and now they wanna go watch pink panther.. i can't change the tix now.. i'm at work.. after work .. i drove to fellowship to see what the hell is going on.. they still wanna change.. fine.. we're gonna have to leave early to exchange tix.. they all agree.
9 o'clock comes along.. and i get up to leave.. and my other friend does to.. but the other two just sit there.. even tho they kno they're suppose to leave.. and continue to sit their asses there for another 15 mins.. just because they're too scared to leave.. what the hell??
1st of all.. ur the ppl who wanted to watch the movie first.. i'm driving u guys cuz u want to go
2nd.. if ur scared to leave.. u should have said something when i told u we had to leave at 9'oclock
we finally leave and they're just so ugh.. friggin piss me off..
i luv how i feel like a fuckin driver and fuckin messenger to them all the time..
oh sindy.. can u drive me to get some groceries? oh sindy can u drive me to the bank.. oh sindy can you drive me here? and can you drive me there? oh sindy can u bring me back a superkid? can u bring me back that tub and that tub?
i swear i've bought home about 10 tubs of icecream for them.. i may get free icecream from work but that doesn't mean i should a tub home like every shift.
i just love how when they want to do something. i'm not allowed to turn them down.. and when i do cuz of good reasons.. such as i worked 8 hrs.. barely slept. and am dead tired.. they get all friggin pissed off at me.. and the odd times that i wanna go do something.. they either a) just flat out say no.. and say oh that suxs.. we don't wanna do that .. or b) say they're gonna go and they dissappear on me the last minute without so much of a "we're not coming sorry" and then when u ask them about it. they're like oh woopseee sorry..
once or twice .. i can deal with it.. not on a weekly basis.. sorry
today.. went to work again.. 6.5 hrs.. beat my record from yesterday.. $1500 in sales.. so even better mood.. until about the end of my shift.. my co-worker and i discussed about what we're each gonna do at the end of the night and what not.. she said she wanted to clean the floors and stuff .. so fine.. i'll clean the counters, and the ice-cream stuff. not a big deal.. but the whole shift.. she doesn't do anything.. just slacks off.. every two minutes .. dissappears into the back room for like 15 mins and just plays on her phone. meanwhile there is a line-up in the store..
she got hired to work ice-cream and that was it.. i got hired to do ice-cream and chocolates.. but she keeps on leaving her spot to go do stuff she shouldnt be.. and then i get yelled at by customers why it took 10 mins to get ice-cream.. frig.. she's suppose to be working there tooo. i'm going as fast as i can..
hour before closing.. she's suppose to be doing before closing cleanup in ice-cream.. she's not even in the store.. she disappears for like 20 mins to go friggin pop-corn.. i don't care that u went to go buy friggin pop-corn.. make sure ur done everythign u said ur goin to before u go.. and make sure the store isn't busy when u leave.. theres a lineup of 10 ppl waiting for icecream and 10 other ppl wanting boxes of chocolates.. there's only 3 ppl working today.. she leaves.. that leaves me and the key-holder.. we're both working off our asses.. she comes back.. and sits int he back room and continues to eat for another 10 mins.. by this time i'm frriggin exploding.
she does this every single shift.. she's lazy.. never does half the things she says she's going to.. i ended up cleaning and packing and closing the whole entire store basically by myself tonite.. only thing she does is clean the floors.. which she does while eating popcorn and dropping all the popcorn onto the floor that she just cleaned.. i had to resweep the floor after.
frig.. i hate it when ppl just slack off and shit just cuz they think they should have special treatment..
i understand that u may not be able to do certain things and thats fine .. i can do those thigns.. but go do stuff u can.. instead of dissappearing and complaining and just simply not doing shit all.
urgh!!!!!
I JUST HATE IT WHEN PPL PISS ME OFF.
normally i'm pretty good with dealing with ppl and tolerating them.. but lately. ppl piss me so much more!!! FRIG

Meet my New Love...
well not really a new love.. a renewed love..
damn.. he's so amazing.. recently i've been listening to his new album
"Heroes of Earth"
its the best cd ever!!
he incorporates chinese opera into his r&b style.. damn good!
and Yes!! it even beats November's Chopin.. hard to believe since i am the ultimate jay chou fan.. but b4 jay chou existed.. i was a wang lee hom fan
he's so talented..
he's a university classically trained violinist with a bach.degree in MA from williams (#1 liberal arts college in ALL of US), a Masters from Berklee college!! BERKLEEE!!!! i applied there and got royally rejected.. but hey thats cuz im not that good..
he plays the piano.. and is amazing at it.. he can improv like no other.
he plays the drums..
he plays the erhu.. and that thing is hard. i took lessons when i was young.. and listening to one of the songs on his new cd.. soo good.. makes me wanna play again..
he dances ( to the equiv of RAIN.. and RAIN is good)
he sings, writes his owns songs, writes his own lyrics, produces his own albums, writes music for other ppl , and acts too..
this guy is smart.. like genius smart... he got close to 1600 on his SAT's, got accepted to princeton and yale and stanford and all those ivy league skewls.. was a jock in high skewl, speaks perfect english.. (kinda has to.. grew up in NY).. and while still being just a normal guy
Oh ..and did i mention that he's hot??? oh yeah.. really really hot.. droolworthy hot
but anyhow i guess the point of this blog is...
well aside from just going goo goo and ga ga over Wang Lee Hom..
is that some ppl are just SO lucky to be so talented.. but their success and fame isn't just because their being lucky or talented.. they have to work really hard to get to where they are..
take lee hom for example.. he comes from a medical family and his family wanted him to follow in those footsteps.. but he knew what it was he wanted to do and he went and did it. it was hard for him.. lots of things he needed to learn and overcome.. but he did it and now its rewarding for him as well as every fan he has..
and i guess.. it kinda reminded me that i need to work hard to get where i want.. i need to perservere and hold in there.. kno what i want and do everything i can to get there..
i gotta work work work and not give up.. i kno i can do it if i just put my heart and soul into it.

only till recently have i noticed how annoying americans in windsor can be..
so this weekend is superbowl 40 in detroit. and being that windsor is a 2 sec walk away from detroit. and that legal gambling/ strip bar age is 18, and drinking/smoking age is 19.. all the americans from every inch of the states flocked over to windsor.. celebs included.. (paris hilton, gwen stefani, ben affleck.. to name a few)
and so every bar and restaurant within the downtown windsor and even within campus region is filled to the max with americans.. normally they're here every weekend anyway.. but they never bothered me so much..
case #1
so i was working the other day. and some stupid american comes in and tries to pay american.. which is fine cuz we take it.. but we only give back canadian change. and this guy.. despite me having told him this fact previous to his ordering his ice-cream and him nodding, totally freaks out afterwards when i hand him his CAD $.. he's like yelling at me.. saying i'm stupid n stuff.. that i should have given him US$ since he gave me US$... i couldn't help him. and so i said u can get a refund if u want.. but i can't give u US $. we don't have any.. and then he starts going on and on about how canada is stupid.. saying how we should just become the US.. and then there'd be no crap about CAD $ and US$.. and just basically insults canada and every living being in this country.. after like yelling at me and this other girl for 10 mins. he demands to see our manag. so fine.. go talk to the manag.. not gonna make a difference. and this stupid moron goes and demands that he get free stuff cuz he was "mistreated" while in our store.. what the hell?? how did we mistreat him? we took his damn ass attitude and insults for 10 mins straight without so much as a mutter.. frig.. he even said we were discriminating him cuz he was american.. WTF??? all while this is happening.. we're getting a line of like 30 pppl cuz he's holding up the line.
a) you're a retard. this is canada.. we have CAD currency not US.. we don't deal with US $
b) i told you before you ordered.. and you nodded..
c) its not my fault we don't take it.. its company policy.. as well as like every other company in the malls.
d) YOU"RE A MORON!!!! canada is a much better country.. we don't get friggin bombed every other day..
e) we're not discriminating you cuz ur american.. we're ignoring you cuz ur A F*ckin AsshOle..
damn.. made me so pissed!
case #2
me and somes friend went downtown to eat dinner & celeb sighting.. yes there are a LOT of celebs in town for superbowl.. paris hilton, ben affeck, jen garner, gwen steffani, her husband, hugh heffner, apparently jayz too... and others
so we booked a table at this restaurant.. we called ahead for reservations cuz we knew it'd be busy.. so to be safe and what not.. so we get there.. this place is crowded to the max.. we had reservations but still had to wait lke 20 mins.. whatever.. understandable.. other ppl had to wait like 1 hr
a bunch of stupid americans walk in.. demanding a table.. literally.. not being polite and asking or anything.. just walks in.. and goes table for whatever.. the host is like there's a wait of 1-1 1/2 hr.. they're like.. we're not waiting that long.. get us a table now. no way in hell is anybody gonna let them just take a table.. so ppl are like uh.. you need to wait.. we were here b4 you and we're waiting.. ur gonna hafta wait too. the americans are all like.. no we dont.. we're american. damn i hate you .. ur annoying, arrogant, cocky, assholes, and i wanna kick ur ass
so we ended up getting our table after like 20 mins.. we start eating and wut not.. the stupid ppl end up getting a table after an hour or so.. during which they decided to drink so much alcohol that they were honestly sick..
they finished about the same time as we did.. we took our time.. eatting and talking and what not.. so we're walking out the door.. and one of the stupid americans turns around from where he's sitting at the bar and literally pukes all over the floor onto one of my friends shoes.. and he just looks at her and laughs..
wtF??? u just puked on her and ur laughin.. its not funni.. ur a moron who can't hold ur liquor..
damn.. i'm not saying that all americans are bad.. i've got american friends and family.. and they're perfectly fine.. its just some of them.. mostly the ones that come over from detroit on the weekend to the windsor bars and clubs.. they think they like own the place.. picking fights. and throwing up all over the place.. urgh
there better not be those stupid ppl when i work tonite and tommorow or i'm gonna go and like run one of them over..

had quite the eventful weekend...
friday: went to work.. got some good news.. one of my co-workers is pregnant with a baby.. and i'm so proud of her.. she's being so brave :)
sat: early morning pratice.. altho had some dificulties with ppl.. was still alrite.. napped for about 5 hrs after pratice. around 630.. went out with the 2 other members of trio, plus mouse's housemate alex for chinese new year dinner at shins shins.. was suppose to be fred and val too but they backed out lastminute with some important stuff.. haha funni nite.. cuz alex for the 1st time got to see eunice's hardcore eating abilities .. some good food and good company.. and then not surprisingly, the trio ended up at the crepe place again.. haha.. why we always go there.. i really couldn't tell you... trio ended up at my place, where the horse continued to eat popcorn, grapes, apple pie, and ice-cream.. afterwards, drove her home.. called the leung family in hk.. "bai lin".. got to talk to some cousins, aunts, uncles and my grandmother..
roomate comes down to my room.. we're both bored outta our minds.. so we go out to the casino since i've never actually gone to the one here in windsor.. while in the car.. i call the ng family in hk... talked to some relations again.. but then i get some really good news!!
Laurie's getting MARRIED!!!!
laurie is one of my cousins.. so first cousin of the ng family to get married.. 2007 spring.. OMG so excited.. i LUV weddings.. i am so going back!!
hung out at casino for about 1 hr.. then went to early breakfast at like 230AM at golden griddle.. came up.. slept
sunday: woke up early for wcbc.. afterwards.. went home slept for an hour or so before working for 3.5 hrs.. busiest sunday ever.. what's up with that? we had non-stop line up of like 20 ppl straight for 2hrs!!! huh?? whats with the sudden cravings for ice-cream and chocolates?
got off at 530.. went home.. got a lil glammed up.. then picked wynne and victor, and the housemate.. and went out to "Via Italia" in windsor for dinner.. went to mezzo ristorante and lounge for dinner
place was pretty good.. i had the mixed green salad, plus the tuna.. hmm both were really good.. so sad tho.. camera was low on batts.. couldn't take pics.. then ordered desserts.. em and i both ordered the warm english souffle.. but what the hell?? the chef didn't even kno how to make a souffle.. damn.. so disappointed.. his/her souffle was flat as hell, sticky and way too overly sweet.. reminded me of a molten lava cake more than anything.. definet waste of $10. em and victor both had the lamb.. wynne had the pappardelle
aside from that.. dinner was good
came home.. and just chilled..
next adventure on erie str. La Casalinga ristorante.. that place looks soo good.. can't wait to try it
sad that i didn't go home for chinese new year.. but dispite that.. i still had a very good weekend :)
got some lucky pocket $, chinese new year cake, and my some homemade chinese-style carrot cake courtesy of my mom and dad..
best thing of this weekend.. i have made a decision about 2 things that i've been contemplating for a really really long time
1) nose stud.. i am gonna go thru with that.. prolly get that during the summer.. can't do it now cuz not allowed facial jewelerry at work.. not rite now at least
2) tattoo.. i've been thinking about getting one since i was 18. couldn never decided what to get.. or where to get.. or whether i'd actually go thru with it.. to be honest.. i've actually walked into a tat parlour at least twice and chickened out at the last minute.. and i have decided that i will EVENTUALLY before i'm 25 get a tattoo... something that has to do with my last name, my grandfathers name, and incorporating another inmportant thing that reps me.. dunno yet.. when i do decide.. and when i save enough $$ for it.. i WILL do it.. no more chickening out... as to where? i haven't decided that either.. shoulder? by belly button? hip? lower back?? dunno.. gotta figure out the pattern first...
haha.. so yup... its 330am. and my finger hurts from typing. i cut it at work and i didn't even kno.. don't u just hate it when u cut ur finger at the tip and u can't like put a bandaid on it cuz its an awkward position?
i'm odd and say odd things.. but u should kno that..

excerpt from my msn space.. just to lazy to retype it all
"so last nite.. a group of us, under the persusasion of the mouse decided to go watch underworld..
the movie was .. shall we say..
gore, and a few scenes of porn, and then more gore.
without a workable plot or anything.. it was purely 105 mins of gore and porn...
after of which, i and friend of us was bamboozled as to why this was the 1st choice of the mouse..
throught the 105 mins of this movie.. this friend and i were, lets say.. definetly not enjoying it..
while the mouse,and his roomate loved ever moment..despite our contest
after the movie, the mouse and his roomate continually decided to rub it in throught the whole ride home.. talking about more blood and gore..
and to that... I swear.. THE MOUSE IS GONNA PAY!!!!!!!
oh just u wait and see.. i'll get you! "
the movie was .. shall we say..
gore, and a few scenes of porn, and then more gore.
without a workable plot or anything.. it was purely 105 mins of gore and porn...
after of which, i and friend of us was bamboozled as to why this was the 1st choice of the mouse..
throught the 105 mins of this movie.. this friend and i were, lets say.. definetly not enjoying it..
while the mouse,and his roomate loved ever moment..despite our contest
after the movie, the mouse and his roomate continually decided to rub it in throught the whole ride home.. talking about more blood and gore..
and to that... I swear.. THE MOUSE IS GONNA PAY!!!!!!!

sitting through a 3 hr workshop today made me wonder..
should i really be a part of this team if my heart isn't in it?
i mean.. there is a reason for standing there every week.. in front of everybody..
and i kno what that reason is.. i just dont really know if i believe or agree with that reason..
the others.. the rest of the team is there .. for a majority of the time.. because they believe in the reasoning..
but i don't really.. and i haven't really for a long time.. and most of the team knows.. but.. i guess my whole problem is..
am i being honest? and am i being responsible??
i'm not in this for the rite reasons..
i will admit.. i do enjoy being there.. its made me closer to those around me.. i enjoy the company.. and just being there.. but does that necessarily mean its ok for me to be there despite my not being there for the right reasons??
i guess it mite not make too much sense .. since u don't quite kno the context..
on the other hand.. the only reason as to where i am now is because i kinda got pushed into it.. i joined to do a simple task.. but was in a way pushed up to a higher level with out my consent..
and i guess i never bothered to say anything about it to the ppl in charge.. but i found myself always complaining and regretting not saying anything
in a way
it just makes me wonder.. how many things in life do we participate in, go to, do, say... all for the wrong reasons??
are I being true to myself, my "teammates", others around me, the community?
in a way.. going to whatever it is, doing whatever it is, saying whatever.. its all lie.. we're not really in it.. we're just doing/saying/going for the sake of it..
so what exactly is to be done?
