Louboutin

I love the detail on these boots. But when heels become super high like these boots, I imagine that they should be on a porn star’s feet. A porn star with good taste in shoes, but still…..

Death by eggrolls

My grandma is trying to feed me tons of lumpia aka eggrolls because she claims she doesn’t eat them… But i just saw her eat a few! Ahhh i’m full!

Shopping wishlist for now

I want to go shopping…. Here’s a list of stuff I want…

Summer Slacking

I haven’t posted on here in the longest time. I’ve been caught up with classes (Story of my life). But my final summer session is almost over, so hopefully I will put more love and care into this site.

Asian food & Asian language

I was waiting  for class to start yesterday and these two girls were having a conversation behind me. They started talking about how good sushi and other such Asian foods were. Then, one of the girls brings up how she got her nails down in Bellingham and how the people who did them were “Chinese.” She began talking about how the nail technicans were watching an “annoying” Chinese show that really got on her nerves because she didn’t like how they way they talked because she said “They were so annoying, the Chinese show was literally like “OH MY GOSHHHHH” (Seriously, that was what that girl said). I have to say these girls were white/Caucasian.

Now, I know what nail salon they were talking about, because I’ve been there before and I know for a fact they’re Vietnamese and not Chinese. How do I know this? I know what Chinese sounds like and it was not Chinese. It definatly sounded Vietnamese. I’m not Vietnamese but I’ve been around enough Vietnamese people to know what their language sounds like. And the lady who did my nails asked me what nationality I was before and she said she was Vietnamese. So I turn around and tell them,

“They’re actually not Chinese there. They’re Vietnamese.”

And she was said, “Good to know!” in this weird tone  “Why are you even talking to me” sort of tone. I turned back around and I could hear their voices become quieter like they didn’t want me to hear what they were saying.

Now, I don’t know if I’m being racially sensative but it irks me when people generalize Asians.  It baffled me so much that they could praise asian foods like sushi, pad thai and noodles but say that some “Chinese” show was annoying them. I know I can’t expect all people to be consistent in their views and attitudes, because let’s face it, human beings contradict themselves a lot. Also, I’ve seen Asian shows from Asia before and they do have that “OH MY GOSHHHHH” feeling that girl was talking about. Very overly dramatic with overacting because it is suppose to be silly usually. But I felt a sting of annoyance at this two girls. I mean how would you feel if they were saying a show in your race’s language was annoying? I know these girls are entitled to their opinion, but it just made me think they were ignorant.

Happy Birthday to me!

Happy Birthday to me! I am friggen 24! Ahhh I’m old! lol It’s a serious age, no poop about that. Anyway, I just got home from Natick with my parents. We went to the mall there and ate at Minado. I love they’re seafood! Pictures here later.

By the way, I have a crush on Victor Kim from Quest Crew, lol. Especially after seeing this YouTube video of him singing “I will follow you into the dark,” since it is one of my favorite songs!

Spring Semester 2009

My first day of new the Spring semester is tomorrow and I am nervous. I am taking 2 art studio courses, Chemistry, Pre-Cal and doing an on campus job at Student Graphics. It doesn’t sound like much but the way my schedule is played out, it leaves me with not a lot of free time. I’m nervous and worried if I can balance everything and do well in my classes. Perhaps I shouldn’t have taken on that much, but I always end up pushing myself to the limit to see if I can actually do it all.

I’ve made myself a mini goal list for this semester to share with everyone.

1. Do homework as soon as it is assigned
2. Set aside extra time to review notes
3. Attend life drawing session at AS220 or other locations to practice drawing skills
4. Do not do art projects at the last minute. Work on them thoroughly!
5. GYM GYM GYM GYM lol

Okay, since this a mini goal list I hope I can do the 5 things I listed! Wish me luck this semester!

Joined FlickR + Updated YouTube

It’s around 3am right now. You may ask why am I still up. It’s because I’m home alone and it’s rare when get complete alone time. So, I like to cherish it by being awake and relaxing in the living room. I’m home alone because my dad is in the Philippines for 2 weeks and my mom is currently working 3rd shift.

Anyway, I signed up for a FlickR and I posted a widget on my site of it. You can see my current uploads of the New England Aquarium from last week. Some of them came out pretty well, but I regretably did not take more because the battery on my Canon ran out. But I only have one contact/friend on FlickR, so if any of you guys have an account please feel free to add me! ^_^ Here’s my link.

I also uploaded 13 videos on my YouTube account the other day. They are severely overdue videos from the Rock the Bells show from July 2008. Talk about procrastinating! Haha. I took short videos of the performances by Nas, Murs, Redman, A Tribe Called Quest, The Pharcyde, Mos Def and more! Here’s my YouTube link and here’s one of my videos!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone! Yes, I am a day late but it’s alright. The holiday rush came and swept me away with the shopping, wrapping, cooking and other preparations. My family celebrated it on the Eve. It was a pleasant holiday, but one of the boring ones I’ve had lol. My parents didn’t come to my cousins house to celebrate and my aunt was came in late because she was working. So, I was bored for most of the day haha. But I was still glad to spend time with my family.

Also, I was super excited to use the hot pot that my boyfriend got me! Now for all of you who don’t know what the hell a hot pot is, here’s the Wiki link. I couldn’t find thin sirlion strips of beef though, because Stop n’ Shop didn’t have them… also I didn’t have time to go to the asian market to find them. But it was still yummy, but not like Shabu Zen or anything! It felt it was a mix of Filipino Nilatan and Vietnamese Pho, haha.

We had a lot of food this Christmas. Not only, did I make hot pot, there was chicken adobo, biko, ham soup, minudo, shrimp, salmon, shells n’ cheese (lmao for the kids), and of course rice! The way my family cooks it’s as if we have 50 people coming to Christmas, but in reality it’s only 15. Then, there of course so many left overs. I never really had an interest in cooking until the the past 2 years. I like preparing food and making it for the ones I love. I think it’s a beautiful way to bond with family and be involved. But I also get self conscience about cooking since I’m still somewhat new at it. I’m still practicing though, and I can’t wait to try the hot pot again!
