a bit of fluff

a bit of fluff and sentimentality… because good music and good books put me into these moods.

i really want people to sing for me. and i really want to gush over the cleverness of things like The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy with someone genuinely interested. do you ever feel LONELY when you’re among lots of people? or lonely even when you desperately want to avoid everyone else’s company? there is this desire to be sociable while at the same time you just want to hide away, disconnected from the rest of the world, and curl up in your bed with a good book, listening to mp3s. and then the bitches across the hall ruin it all by being loud or you remember just how much work you’ve put off.

there was a time when the critters weren’t so disjointed and busy… when we’d take long breaks at schneider to talk about the most random things and go off regularly to Boston for dinner. we’d take “ramen breaks” and play UNO… we’d play UNO at Super 88 and pretty much everywhere else. i’d go to MIT on a semi-regular basis, and sometimes i’d bring fruit and snacks for Baker 246 (though, really it was for irene & emi)

i’m going to miss it all so much…

lots of photos here (where, to save space, I deleted the original size photos, so if for some reason you want a copy, I have better quality ones on my hard drive) and here

Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

I have finally discovered the sheer genius of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (Douglas Adams) Quotes time! Well, quotes up till chapter 14, which was as far as I got. This book is sooooo clever :-D i must get a copy!

lyrics: Must Get Out (Maroon 5)

Lyrics to Maroon 5’s Must Get Out… I particularly like This city’s made us crazy and we must get out. I get to see LIFEHOUSE soooooooon!! Next Wednesday, in fact. If only Maroon 5 would come to Boston too!

Then as part of senior week, I get to see the Boston Pops perform!! And hopefully, if all goes according to plan, I’ll get to see the Final Fantasy: Dear Friends orchestral performance as well!

whoohoo!!

yay!!! it seems like sarabi’s better. :-)

destination asia went well today. i took tons of pictures… the little kids were sooooo adorable. karen’s kids came this year too. i hope there’s organizations like ASU for grad students (highly improbable, i suppose) at UC Davis… even though it’s stressful and tedious at times, it’s so worth it in the end. i’m sooo going to miss e-board. we had SUCH a nice group.

ASU merchandise also came in. the T-Shirts are SO CUTE. and the yoga pants are sooooo comfy. Yayyyy!! greaaaaat job to sera for designing them.

saraaaaaaabi!!!

sarabi’s sick!!! aaaaaaaah!!! my mom says she’s refusing food… She NEVER refuses food. but she’s refusing to eat her favorites even though my parents are putting it in her mouth. and it’s hard for her to get up… she couldn’t even lie down?? and she’s shaking like she has a fever… her nose is hot and dry… instead of being cold and wet. oh my poor puppy… i hope she gets well… they should take her to the vet tomorrow. i wonder what’s wrong? she just turned 5 on the 17th… so it’s nothing related to old age. aaaaah i hope my sarabi is ok. i wish i were home so i could see her :-(

what a cruddy month.

how old am i?

i still coo over cute little puppies and cute animals in general… i have verbal spats over xanga with a hamster O.o;; i am overly fond of Lilo & Stitch, stitch & scrump in particular. I still use the asian notebooks & pens with little cartoon figures on them. i have an insatiable appetite for cotton candy. i name my stuffed animals. and i still love neopets.

sometimes i catch myself and think… “you’re twenty. and still behaving like a child.”

but it’s so much fun. :-)
