Eeteuk-oppa, how will I ever reach your heart? </3

How I've cried...

This song...

08 Condition Of My Heart

Justin Guarini

.... has been on my mind since forever. It's on my "emo" playlist and I play and sing along to it all the time. The lyrics don't really match my current feelings, but it still makes me sad. But I want to eventually feel those feelings expressed in the song. I want to be able to think those same thoughts.

Justin Guarini's version isn't the first version of this song I've heard. I originally got exposed to the song when it was sung by Fly To The Sky... but I can't really sing in Korean, so... yeah.

Polyvore.

I don't know why I have never seen this place before! It's now my new favorite site. This makes me feel so... girly.

Thanks, ontd_fashinfags. D:

I was messing around, and here's what I made. It's crap, probably, because I don't have any fashion sense. =(

I was looking at a Polyvore-related post on ontd_fashinfags, and I really liked this person's. Especially the jacket. I want it! >:O

Your turn!

Random rant.

I tend to attract asshole-ish people as friends. Or rather, "friends," but whatever.

I never noticed it before, but now that I've examined these people more closely, the more I see how annoying that part of them is. It's a pain. Sometimes I just want them to leave me alone.

Their meanness makes me want to strangle them. It's hard having a conversation with them without wishing I could punch them in the face for insulting me for the umpteenth time. I mean, I should get used to their abrasiveness, right? But no, I'm just a little sick of it. I'm not taking what they say personally, but it's just like... ugh.

Am I the only one?

Scrubs is very insightful.

I recently finished watching the first season of Scrubs. Yeah, I know, seven years of this show being on air and I just now started getting really into it. But it's better than not getting into it at all. I love this thing to death and I can't wait to buy the next season for my boyfriend (yes, they were his DVDs that I bought for him that I was watching) so that I can watch it, with or without him around. =D

Anyway, I was really surprised at the number of touching, sweet, and sad moments on the show. At first I thought it was just a comedy with awesome dialogue, but watching the episodes made me think a lot, especially with the lines and plots of the show. They made me learn. A good example would be the episode where the hospital staff had to take turns talking to a visiting therapist. This was also the episode where two of the main characters, JD and Elliot (a girl character, by the way. Don't let her name deceive you. XD) briefly hook up. One of the senior resident doctors (and another main character), Dr. Cox, had his turn on the therapist's couch. He talked about relationships, and he did it with such incredible depth. It has become possibly one of my most favorite dialogue of any character on any show I've watched, mainly because I felt that what he said was so true.

Here's a video of what he said. Spoilers?

Show us a book that scared you as a child.

I don't even need to think about this.

I was obsessed (and possibly still am) with scary stories (in general) when I was little. Back then, they didn't really scare me that much, but I think I've seen/read too many horror things that I've just gotten wayyy more scared of things over the years.

But OMG look at those covers! Even the illustrations scared the crap out of me!

But you know what scared me more than that?

The second book! I actually own this one and still have it to this day. It's my favorite out of the little trilogy Schwartz released, mainly because it had some short blurb about conjuring up ghosts in mirrors. It was possibly the scariest thing I've read, because for some reason, I was deathly afraid of mirror ghosts (too many horror stories about those as a kid, I suppose). Even now, I feel wary around mirrors, even though, at the same time, they fascinated me. So, I kept reading about them. I've never tried "Bloody Mary" or "Candyman," though. And no, I never will, so don't bother daring me to try.

I don't remember much of the third book...

... but I'll put a picture of it anyway, so that I feel more complete with this entry. I'm damn sure I've read it, at least.

What's your favorite appetizer to order at a restaurant?

Anything stuffed, with cheese, and/or pastry-like. D:

... Actually, I don't know. Any appetizer sounds good to me, really. =( The last time I had some kind of appetizer was when I went to Clay Pit (an Indian restaurant) with Cassie. I ordered these really good crab cakes. They were enough to satisfy me.

GUANG LIANG - TONG HUA

Guang Liang

I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with this song ever since Dizzy showed me the music video of it on YouTube like a month or two ago (even longer?). It's everywhere for me.. it's on my profile page on MySpace, it's played constantly on my iPod, and if you look at my Last.fm or something, you'll see that I've practically put it on repeat.

The song is a typical ballad, sung in Mandarin, but to me, it's a good song for me to listen to on my bleh days. I tend to listen to slow, mostly depressing songs when I'm feeling down.

The music video is very soapy drama-ish, with a young guy and a girl hooking up at the beginning but with the girl dying of some terminal illness at the end. The whole piano/phone bit was nice, though. The video overall stirred my emotions somehow, because for some reason, I kept thinking throughout the video how happy I am to have my boyfriend. If anything bad happened to either of us like in the video, I don't know what I'd do. It's not something I should think about, but I get random idle thoughts like that sometimes. XD ... So now, this song reminds me of Alfredo. <3

-_-

For some reason, I've been really grumpy lately. I've been easily irritated and I don't really know why. I want to like... punch and kick things. On the inside, at least.

So sorry if I take my wrath out on you. D:

Unless you deserve it, of course. =P




So there's an update for you. Otherwise, not much going on here. I haven't updated any blogs other than this lately. Nothing to update about, unfortunately.

Fall schedule and then some.

Half of me is excited about school starting up again and the other half is dreading it. I can't wait to be busy again and taking another math class (a statistics one), because for some reason unknown, I felt the urge to take some math. I can't wait until some of my friends come back from the summer break.

I'm dreading the fact that she will come back and probably hog him. I'm also dreading graduating, because that means I have to do all these preparations for graduate school and probably look for more shit that will help me make it in the real world.

Sigh.

Anyway, this is my fall schedule:

PSY 352: Abnormal Psychology. MWF 11:00-12:00P
LIN 350-2: Language and Thought. TTH 11:00-12:30P
PSY 325K: Advanced Statistics. TTH 2:00-3:00P
MUS 302L: Introduction to Western Music. MWF 1:00-2:00P, TH 5:00-6:00P
BIO 307D: Biology of AIDS. MWF 2:00-3:00, W 9:00-10:00A

I am also waitlisted for JPN 325K - Advanced Conversation I (MWF 3:00-4:00P). Spot 8 out of 10. Ick. But if I get into the class (and I hope I do), I'm dropping that music class.
