untitled

last friday marked another great day at disneyland with the initiation of Tricia into our annual disneyland pass club... it's was pretty funny how she ended up buying a pass.. she tried to get in using our friend's pass (who incidently is a guy) and she was immediately stopped in her tracks.. but she was a good actress and claimed she had taken her boyfriend's pass by mistake... very believable... but anyways, for halloween/christmas ( i don't think those two holidays go together very well...) they've totally changed the haunted mansion into The Nightmare Before Christmas... i was little skeptical about it but after going through it i can say disney did alright in comparison to the crap ass job they did with moving the main street electrical parade to california adventure...

in other news, i have finally fingured out Dumpling Inn's recipe for scallion beef... yeah! i was actually inspired to try it once more after looking through some recipes for orange chicken when i read over the ingredients which included ginger... so i decided to use ginger and low and behold scallion beef was created in my very own kitchen...

so check this out i gave my roomie david a haircut at about 3 in the morning a couple days ago... it was the first time i've ever cut hair and the only real experience i've had is all the haircuts i've had before... actually i think if i can just get a little more practice i could start cutting other people's hair or at least cut my roomie's hair on a regular basis since he doesn't pay to get his haircut... anywho, in terms of school my academic life goes on and graduation is quickly approaching... in fact, i'm quite frightened at the prospect of being school-less for a year inbetween graduation and med school... i honestly don't know what i want to do... part of me wants to just find a real job while the other part is saying just lay low and relax... but after living away from home for the very first time i know that i don't want to go back and i really hope that when next year comes along i'll be living with my roomies still... but we'll see how the melody of life plays itself out...

5, 4, 3, 2...
well, the countdown has begun to my last midterm in ~33 hours... it's about 1:20 in the morning and i can't seem to get into sleepmode... you know, it's when you want to sleep because you know you should but random thoughts are just running through your head?

hmmm... as i was writing this my roomie steph came home and now i'm just wide awake... i guess this means i'll try to study myself to sleep...

I'm older

Well it's been a long time coming , but i've finally gathered the strength to write...

october 9th was my 21st birthday and my roomies threw me a surprise party which i managed to figure out since i came home unexpectedly... nevertheless the thought and execution was perfect. =) and let me just say i'm totally in love with all my roomies, all 8 of them, for being so fun and sweet on my bday. anywho, i'm in the middle of midterms and i have one more to go this week... i'll keep it short and sweet... good luck for those of you with midterms and paper's due this week...

Feeling the burn
Well, it's monday night/tuesday morning and i'm definately feeling the pressure of the quarter... by my estimations i think i should be getting to bed by 5 if i'm lucky enough to finish my reading... but oddly i'm not stressed out... usually when my life gets to the point like this i'm bawling my eyes out by the end of the night because i hate it so much, but strangely i'm content and quite proud of the fact i study every night... unfortunately this life of studying and APSA organizing has left hardly any room for socialization... it seriously hurts to not be able to hang out with my family every night like the "old" times... but like philip said eventually peter pan must leave never never land... i just didn't think it would be this soon... *sigh*

in between my study times however i've been able to really discover the fact that i love living with my roomies... each of them is so dynamic and i honestly don't think i could've planned it out any better... we've done so much already together and it'll be a shame when steph leaves our happy home... we've cooked, laughed, played, cried, and i just love em! "that's my roomie! all 8 of them!"
