HEAVY THUNDER STORM. oy, very close too. less than half a second between the thunder and the lighting. (it was as if someone took a picture using a flash camera in my apartment) must turn off computer just in case.

SO, I think I am being left out of the loop since nobody is calling me. Hi, I like to talk to people on the phone although I don\’t prefer to do it on a repetitive basis!
Had a phone confy with E and Lele, who both forced me to use my cell to connect them despite having a very horrible reception. We got disconnected twice until E figured out her phone conference mode. I can tell that anybody overhearing the conversation was probably like…WHOA GOSSIPY. HIGH SCHOOLISH. YOU TALK ABOUT PEOPLE BEHIND THEIR BACKS. Yes, that\’s right! Got a problem with that?
AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN.
DOY. DC FOOD. Makes you sick. That plus the fact how my coworkers and I got into a very naughty topic and I couldn\’t stop laughing. WANT SOME DOUGH TONIGHT?!
That and how I got roped into going out to dinner afterwards with Aaron, sln and yvette. Instead of eating pho, I got the soda salty drink. It was INTERESTING, but once I got back to my apartment…I felt very queasy. I think that was the dorm food doing its thing.
Highlights of the Last Few Days
At Karen\’s b-day, I saw someone that I had broken connections with. Needless to say, I wasn\’t surprised that I saw him say in his lj…\”Jenn also showed up, which was quite unexpected. Was able to ignore her for the most part, which was easy enough since she sat far enough away for me to do so.\” Thanks, I think.
Got introduced to ahem…porn. EW?
DID NOT GET FOOLED ON APRIL FOOLS. With the exception of last week when Cheez and Ben fooled me into thinking that Duluth has mosquitos everywhere during the summer and that they have to wear bug suits during July to avoid being bitten. It backfired when I said I didn\’t want to go anymore…
Ate dorm food because I was tabling for work there. Wow. Oh so good. *sarcasm*
Cog sci got cancelled on Tuesday because the prof was sick. That was one of the happiest days this semester. :)
PARTICIPATED IN APRIL FOOLS.
my domains-jennism.com and unoccupied.org-have fully propagated! I am still undecided what I should do at either domain though.
Found out about Better Luck Tomorrow on a blog that I just happened to be reading. AND AFTER READING A BITTY OF THIS AND THAT, I got intrigued. Saw the trailer. Oddly enough, it reminds me a lot of myself in high school. AND BEST PART, of all the places that it is getting released, it is going to be playing HERE IN BERKELEY next Friday April 11. WOOHOO. SO WHO ELSE IS GOING TO SEE IT YOU ALL LIVING IN THE BOONIES. The film is a controversial independent about asian americans in the suburb. AND MORE! It took nearly an hour to find somebody who wanted to see it as much as I did. It isn\’t racist, because you can\’t really avoid asian stereotypes in movies since most asians aren\’t that prevalent in films. Go see it when it\’s released…if it\’s going to be released in your town!

APRIL FOOLS!!!!!
Because of last week\’s incident, I had been avoiding positively.cpnet. But I was yes…starting to miss it. And it just happened to be April 1 and I convinced Naim to put up a page (containing the text on the left) at the forums url.
Most people fell for it. I told them that I deleted the forums. In fact, people thought that I had a huge fight with Naim (NOPE…THAT DID NOT HAPPEN!) and that I was moving off chargedparticle.com Others wanted the backup of the forums for nostalgia purposes.
But here\’s a snippet of the chaos:
Ben (11:46:02 PM): Jen?
Me (11:46:05 PM): …?
Ben (11:46:11 PM): umm… i was sort of

I also helped Lele in playing a prank with her boy toy…ahem…I mean <3! I basically called him and pretended to be her. HI. QUACK. HOW ARE YOU SWEETIE? I LIKE CHICKEN. WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD? QUACK. MEOW? [INSERT MEOW SONG] I CROSSED THE ROAD TO WATCH CHICKEN PORN. SO FATTENING. IT WAS OH SO GREASY. SO STIMULATING.
Well, it was time anyway. The forums had to go. and I will be moving soon.
DOUBLE BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!!!
Happy 21st Birthday to Xing! Here\’s your GIFT! Psych class, cars, shopping, candy, sex on beach?
And a 22nd Birthday to Karen! Hi hi hi! :) Never forgot that fateful day in Le Conte and the RCC internship. ;) I\’ll see you today at Hua Hin!
Many wishes!
On March 27, the results for admission were mailed out and posted online.
The competition for admission to Berkeley is stiff. Some 37,000 students applied to Berkeley for the Fall 2003 term. Of these, only about 8,900 will be admitted.
I remember how three years ago I received a huge packet in the mail from UC Berkeley. At that point, I was feeling very arrognant and thought…well, that was easy.
But attending Berkeley knowing that a lot of people have been rejected sometimes makes me feel way too elite. There was an instance where someone e-mailed me asking what to do to get into here. Is it really all that cut up to be? To be part of a world-reowned university where everybody competes so bloodily? Or to be part of an university known for its liberal outspokeness?
from Doreen\’s blogee…the lines that struck me the most:
Sometimes you listened, and sometimes you had to go. Usually you had to go.
I think you should have given me a better x-mas present though.
You are a ignorant little bitch!
The rage has worn off, but my stomach still knots at the sight of you.
I can let out nasty bodily sounds, tell you about my failing grades, act like an immature little girl and you\’d still be my personal cheerleader.
Over spring break I learned that:
