So this is really confusing.
I rarely check my hotmail account. So as a result, my account gets incredibly full of spam. Hotmail sends me an e-mail telling me that my account size is too large and that I should upgrade.
Note: their friendly reminder is 6k. Incredibly huge for a reminder.
What irony.
So I blog less on the weekends, because I am away from my computer more. :p
Is that a bad thing?
I am so tired.
Yesterday I went to see A Beautiful Mind and Mulholland Dr.. I was particularly impressed with both. Yet like one critic said…like how I would say \”I had the weirdest dream last night\”…I saw the weirdest movie last night–Mulholland Dr.
For the third week in a row (and thankfully, the last week that I would have to do it), I woke up early today to help Sri…again. Not that I minded, but I just didn\’t have enough hours of sleep this time around. Because I came back at 1 am (after seeing both movies — saw A Beautiful Mind wiht Tram and Christina at the UA theater downtown and Mulholland Dr. with Karen and her friends at Wheeler–I was almost contemplating not taking a shower), I didn\’t go to sleep until 2:30 am. Somehow this Saturday, I had a hard time with remembering the way to the Food Bank. We got lost on the way there. Although we didn\’t get lost finding lunch (how strange…we ended up at Togos in Alameda where I met up with Stacee…for a minute), we got lost coming back. Hecka lost. Somehow I couldn\’t figure out how to get back to the Port of Oakland from Oakland downtown. I was confused and as a result, I drove around Oakland for a good 45 minutes. We both gave a sheepish grin when we saw Mary, the director of the food bank. At the table, the girl working with us overheard us joking about how I had trouble with driving and how I couldn\’t determine whether a can was salvagable or not. \”I hope you guys aren\’t going to kill each other,\” she noted.
We laughed in response and I replied, \”Oh, we have just been around each other too much…today.\”
Food in the break area is good. :) Everyone should volunteer at the Alameda Food Bank…at least once.
After going to Safeway (yet again), I dropped off Sri at his place…reminding him that he owes me a lot. Yes, not only lunch. But dinner. Breakfast. Snacks. I am thinking of Chez Panisse. Thirty bucks an entree. Wait a minute, maybe I should make him buy me a mp3 player. Yes!
No there\’s no such thing as undying gratitude.
I want to complain. I have to unload my angst. Or was that antipathy?
Hecka annoying.
Did I ever mention how much I hate alarm clocks?
Did I also mention why my landline phone here in Berkeley is always blocked?
Did I forget to mention how trash will obviously get all over the place if the bags are not placed properly in the bins?
UGH!
I can\’t believe it. I finished my CS HW two days before it\’s due. And it was incredibly easy too.
So would you want to marry Glissandra?
Finally, I got down pointers and storage allocation!
Lol, my sister has the weirdest friends. Fantastic equation, though. :)
According to findyourspot.com, the top five best hometowns for me are:
New Haven, Conneticut
Providence, Rhode Island
Hartford Connecticut
Boston, Massachusetts
and
Baltimore, Maryland.
All in the East Coast. It must have been because I said I preferred snow…since in California, I rarely see snow unless I drive three hours up North.
I am wasting time rather than trying to figure out the pre-lecture quiz for tomorrow\’s CS lecture. I have been meaning to do this Friday Five for awhile. Now I finally remembered! :) It\’s a bit risque this week, but hey…I have nothing to hide. It\’s weird though…most people were nineteen when they lost their virginity, but then they claim \”stupid kid mistake\”. *blink* I think my writing is becoming drier and drier. :p
1. What\’s the most romantic thing you\’ve ever done for someone else?
It was for Alan. I am sure most people have heard me brag about this before. For Christmas, I got a box (okay, the gift box from Sephora) and filled it up with Hershey\’s Kisses. Cuz yeah…haha, I was going to give him a \”real\” kiss for xmas. Then I stuffed that box into a larger box, surrounded by Hershey\’s Hugs since we hugged everytime we saw each other. :)
For V-day, I secretly had his friend order a bouquet of tulips and place on his desk before second period. He had told me before that he had never seen tulips in person before. So of course, I had to do something. ;)
Bleh, well…remember, he\’s my ex now. So no more of that for awhile.
2. [pardon the cosmo question] What are your erogenous zones?
Haha, okay honestly, I didn\’t know what erogenous meant so I promptly went to dictionary.com. Probably the back of my neck just like everyone else.
3. How old were you the first time you had sex? Care to expound?
Proud to be a virgin. :) I believe that sex should be an expression…of true and deep love.
4. What\’s the most unusual place you\’ve ever had sex?
See above.
5. Do you have plans for Valentine\’s Day or is it just another Thursday?
If I had never met Alan, Valentine\’s Day would be just another Thursday. But because of last year, it\’s all different to me. It\’s not bittersweet, but I am hooked to the prospect although I doubt that anything will happen. Xing and I had already discussed a girl\’s night out. Dress up to eat at a fancy restaurant thing. Yes total <3!!! Don\'t know if it\'s going to be happening. Otherwise I plan to spend my Thursday night in the labs of Soda...programming. :D
For once this semester, I was around my girl buds more than my guy buds. After MCB lecture, I went with Hien, Tram and Ahn (she was supposed to be my roommate last year…but things didn\’t work out) to the Durant Cafe to eat. Yes, I got a crepe. A strawberry/nutella one. Can\’t you imagine how my eyes lit up at the taste of chocolate?
Somehow they got me talking about my life…again. The Alex story. The she-almost-punched-me-but-they-pulled-us-apart story. The roommate (and roommates) story.
I really should write an autobiography.
And yet again, I spent another long afternoon in the lab….helping my friends in 61B. Okay, so this time I had already lost all my steam for trying to figure out a program for differences between days. And I worked on my own CS hw. Java always rules.
Then…somehow I ended up at the Korean place again. Fortunately, it wasn\’t Steve\’s Korean BBQ where the worst things always keep happening. i.e. breakups or nervous breakdowns
I found this nifty tips/tricks page for Windows 98. Too bad I didn\’t discover this sooner when I was satisfied with the current OS. Now I want Windows XP.
