I realize that whenever something stresses me out the way i handle it is by trying not to think about it which is pretty stupid I guess since it really doesn't fix the problem.
My laptop decided to get all cray cray on me and there was no way I could even get to the desktop to attempt to fix it. I noticed a few problems such as constant pop ups and how it started to run slower awhile ago I decided to ignore it... until finally it just crashed.
And of course I had absolutely nothing backed up. I started to freak out because my whole life (aka pictures and schoolwork) was all in there.
Me being completely computer retarded had no idea what to do. I couldn't even think of any possible problems and any possible solutions. ughh.
Thankfully Julian is the best and helped me out, except I had to wait a whole week because he was back home. So i spent about 100 bucks on an external hardrive and used a different program to back up all my shit. Thank the LAWD it was still all there.

So.. i think i know what my new years resolution is going to be..
I would like to try to be more tech saavy. Shit, or at least somewhat more knowledgeable on computers. Hopefully this way I can avoid problems or at least learn to fix them on my own. Oh, and to not avoid problems thinking it will fix itself on its own.

OH. i got an 84 out of 100. BALLLAA! wow i really sound braggy. i'm sorry really. im not usually. it was just a very exciting day. k bye. why am i writing in this like an instant message.
PEACE
How could i forget to mention that the last few weeks before school ended i studied my ASSSSS off! OH. because that's my life ALL the time.
The night before my final i stayed at the USC library until 12am to study. got home and studied for two more hours. woke up at 4 to study and got to school by 6:30 to study until 9:30. took the damn final AT LAST and thought i was going to shit in my pants bc it was the hardest test i'd ever taken. 100 questions.
Waited around bc they said the results would be ready in two hours. ate at little tokyo with a buncha people and had cold sake for the first time. shitty. got to school and waited a billion more hours. FINALLY they call out our names and WTF. I was worried about not even passing the class and instead i raised my grade from a C to a B! ARE YOU SERIOUS? everyone prays to just get by with a C. C=RN. lol. ok i really don't mean to sound like i'm bragging but i was seeerriously in disbelief! ahhhhh. and now i can relax. and i haaave been. love it. OH I LOVE BREAK.

i think i may part ways with blogspot soon.
I absolutely LOVE winter break! It's such a strange feeling to not have to worry about studying. I almost feel useless. I'd like to feel this way forever!

I've done so much more these last 5 days of break than i did all semester long. And it's not that i've been out doing crazy things and traveling the world or anything. I've just not been couped up in my room or at a borders or barnes and noble stressing my brains out about the next quiz or test. It's wonderful.

Aimee's back from Germany! Yay! I think i've seen her everyday of my break. I'm so excited she's back. Now i have friends to play with.

I'm just going to list what i've done (mostly for the purpose of me remembering what i did winter break). nothing exciting really.

Thursday- IAG Christmas party at a korean karaoke place. Best night ever! i LOVE the IAG crew!

Friday- Party at Diva's

Saturday- Ra Sushi bar in Torrance with Aimee

Sunday- I don't remember... ugh. what the hell did i do?

Monday- LA/Arclight with Julian to see Slumdog Millionaire. Amazing! one of my new fav movies for suuure!

Tuesday- Downtown Fullerton with Aimee

Wednesday- Nothing really. helped make yummy ceviche with my mom!

Lame entry. I'll post a more meaningful one with pics later.

Ugh. EXTREME information overload.
it goes in and immediately goes out of my brain.
I'm so damn ADD right now. I need to focus. I need to study.
I've noticed that i've become a coffee drinker these last few weeks.
I don't even like coffee (funny that i work at a coffee shop) and i don't
even really know if it does anything for me.
It takes me about 1-2 minutes to finish a cup. I'm not one of those that
enjoys their coffee and take sips of it here and there. I gulp it. Really.
And the reason i do it is to avoid the taste in my mouth. That's what she said!
oh how i love myself... ha jk.

I saw the movie chang-a-lang (lol. aka "Changeling") and it's really great!
Very very interesting and great acting. Anyone see it?
Definitely went in a direction i totally didn't expect. It kind of freaked me out..
Anyways. Go see it. Hmm.. now that i'm really thinking about it.. why is it called Changeling?
Did i miss something!?

Went to the LA light show with Christine, Saena, and Vince last night.
Definitely wasn't as cool as it sounds.
First we kept getting lost. Oh vince, what an asian driver.
Then we get there and we get on a really smelly shady looking prison bus
thinking it's going to take us to where we need to be. Little did we know that
while we were in there, the whole time we were experiencing the "light show"
Basically you look outside and there are displays of christmas themed lights..
Lasted about 3 min. And on the way back to the parking (where the bus picked us up)
it took maybe 20 min. HOW?I don't know.
It's ok. We ate Denny's afterwards and the seasoned french fries made the night
10 times better. How i love potatoes...

Good luck on Finals!
winter break! you're just around the corner!
