So with my hard drive possibly failing (or having a bad day), I\’ll do the honors of posting the count of the aim logs, which I used to be so (and still am) obssessed with. Now for the top 5 people (who have talked to me the most) on AIM since I reformatted my hard drive 2 weeks ago (a total different from my last count almost a year ago):

1. my sister with 340k of logs! the lady and i obviously have a lot to say to each other. my mom recently called my sister telling that she should call me on my birthday. apparently, my parents didn\’t know my sister talks to me at least once a day. aww wittle sis! she\’s going to optomery school in fullerton. go lady!

2. chwong with 252k. even though i met him one week before i left california, we are like totally aim buddies. it\’s because he doesn\’t care what people think, doesn\’t care that (much) about most things and we have similar beliefs of the world. you know, i don\’t even know what we talk about to fill up that much space.

3. alex DARRON with 216k. I suppose our talk has more to do with exchanging gossip and changing subjects so fast that what we say one moment doesn\’t even relate with two minutes prior. this is probably the third different alex that has made it to my list. WHY SO MANY ALEXES, WHY! at least this one i can call him a pseudo-biohazard. :)

4. mike with 172k. I don\’t know how we managed to talk so much considering that I only met him in April at Chi. It was one of those interesting moments where I start babbling until I forgot the reason why I had started. He\’s finally deciding on Seattle…and most likely our conversations have been about his major indecision between mit/uw. Despite how great Boston is, there is always a way in Seattle. Not to mention, we keep talking about finding \”love\”…and him pushing me to just be open and KISS any guy I meet.

5. carol with 148k. lots of coordination over the im despite the fact that we live in the same house, a floor apart. It\’s amazing how much privacy an im can provide. the last im she sent me? \”that scared me,\” she said to which i replied \”THUNDER! :)\”

runner-ups (in order) include karen, b, the turkish guy, charles (not MINNY-cheez!) and benjamin bunny
