You gotta love someone like Mr. Okra.

Slacking
Should be studying. Test is Monday. Study study. Oh well.
I received an email from Haloscan, a host that I used to store and display comments on my blog before I switched to the blogger verison. So basically they are shutting down because both their hardware and software are physically failing. They tell me I need to back up my comments before everything disappears forever.
I went back to read some of these comments and refer back to my old blog entries. How much things had changed. For the most part, Uyen, who used to be a fan of my blog, had passed away. Miss her (and her goofiness) dearly. And I've changed a lot. What is the opposite of "evolve?" I am more comfortable with myself, but I feel that I have gone backwards. No more wide-eye girl. I don't even recognize myself from old entries back from 2004. Was I that optimistic and curious all the time? I am more dark now. Shit and I am still in my 20s.
I am not sure if I am happy with the way I am now. But I will definitely write more, so I can look back again five years from now.
Update on 1/28 -
I need to make good memories now for the future.

Psycho!!!
Another unsuccessful date. Just wanted to scream psycho!!!
Just when I thought that things were picking up a bit, and it went downhill again. Yikes. The 5-week-long travels refreshed my mind and yet destroyed my ability to see the reality clearly again. Things will always be the same. I will continue working bad jobs even if I don't have one yet. I will continue failing my exams. And I will keep on going on dates with guys who have no interests in me. Why, why, why?
I had a brief meeting with this eharmony guy prior to my trip. Obviously I got a false impression that he was into me because he had tried to keep in touch by sending me a few emails during my time overseas. Tonight's meeting was a disaster. I was dressed hipster-style with my vintage plaid shirt and bright red lipstick (maybe too cool for him!), totally hot. It started with minor complications about setting up the meeting time and place. My thinking is, if you are interested in someone, you should take the effort to make an appointment from your life and take that person to a place that will impress her. Dude had no planning at all and I absolutely hate exchanging 10,000 emails/texts with no conclusion of when and where two people should meet, and there are like 10,000 places to go in NYC! So, dude wanted to meet after 8pm for happy hour. Hello, happy hours usually ends at 8! Okay, so I suggested Verlaine which had HH until 10pm. No response. Then I suggested wine and tapas at three different places. Okay, dude said that he wouldn't be hungry and wine should be okay. I decided to settle on one place. We met and dude said that he never liked drinking wine. WTF? And at the end he suggested to split the bill, which was only $30. Come on. Basically, too many things were off and we had nothing in common.
I don't blame this dude. We just didn't hit it off. Like the dozens of other guys that I dated in the city. I missed this bus, but there will always be another one that comes next.
Good luck to me.

On nothingness.
The word is "remorse." I feel remorseful.
Nothing dramatic had happened to be mourned or cried about. I just feel like part of me has been diminished. People say that every time you fall, you get up. You are supposed to have learned something and become stronger and better, blah blah blah. The truth is, every fall you take, the wound becomes a scar on your body and even when you forget about it, you will be reminded when you see it.
I am not religious, but I do believe there is someone out there who is looking out for me, guiding me with some sort of light. I am grateful for that, and it makes me hopeful. I agree I am often too idealistic and as a result I end up disappointed.
Should I lower my expectations or should I work toward my expectations? What's wrong with keeping everything simple and as black-and-white as it can be?
The bottomline is, I tried my best already. Let's move on to the next big thing.

On love.
You read it in the books; you hear it in the songs; you see it in the movies; you experience it. What are you supposed to do with love? When I was studying about the electrical system, they used water as a metaphor to explain the flow of electricity. Love is also an abstract object, that's why one can quote a million stories with detailed descriptions about love. How it starts; how it lasts; how it ends. When it comes along, you take it. When it leaves, you say goodbye to it. Love basically makes up most of what life is all about. It distinguishes us from other animals.
So what don't you get and why don't you get it?
I was once certain about love. It only happened once, but it came to me naturally like fish in the water. It must be innate within everyone. I knew exactly what I needed to do. I devoted myself to it with no doubt. Life suddenly became clearer. What is the truth? THIS is the truth. It was so real, I stood hauntingly naked in front of it. I didn't have to hide, I didn't have to pretend. I was it.
Then it was gone. I lost it. I googled it, wiki-ed it and looked everywhere for it. I couldn't find it any more. I put myself on dating sites, so it can find me. If events in life were based purely on luck and effort, I wish I could have the same luck that I had with finding the last "Hawaii" quarter at the cafe or that my friend had with finding his wallet at the beach after a night of snow.
There were a few times when I could almost feel it, smell it and touch it. Then it slowly went away. It was probably not real anyways. I used to blame myself for not being good enough. Then I thought, I AM good enough. Someone IS out there. I should stop over-analyzing and let things take their course.
And then I let another opportunity slip away yesterday.
Oh my god. This is so frustrating.

Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys- Empire State of Mind
This song is just da bomb!!!
Empire State of Mind (feat. Alicia Keys) - Jay-Z
[Jay-Z]
yeah
Yeah I'm out that Brooklyn.
Now I'm down in Tribeca.
Right next to DeNiro
But I'll be hood forever
I'm the new Sinatra
And since I made it here
I can make it anywhere
(Yeah they love me everywhere)
I used to cop in Harlem
All of my Dominicanos (Hey yo)
Right there off of Broadway
Brought me back to that McDonalds
Took it to my stash spot
560 State Street
Catch me in the kitchen like Simmons whipping Pastry
Cruising down 8th street
Off-white Lexus
Driving so slow
(but BK, it's from Texas!!)
Me I'm out that BedStuy
Home of that boy Biggie
now I live on Billboard
and I brought my boys with me
Say what up to Ta-ta
Still sipping Mai Tais
Sitting courtside
Knicks and Nets give me high-5
N**ga, I be Spiked out
I could trip a referee
...tell by my attitude that I'm MOST DEFINITELY FROM...
[Alicia Keys]
New York!!!!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There's nothing you can’t do,
Now you're in New York!!!
These streets will make you feel brand new,
the lights will inspire you,
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York
[Jay-Z]
I made you hot n-gga,
Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game,
sh-t I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can,
you should know I bleed Blue, but I ain't a crip tho,
but I got a gang of n-ggas walking with my clique though,
welcome to the melting pot,
corners where we selling rocks,
Afrika bambaataa sh-t,
home of the hip hop,
yellow cab, gypsy cab, dollar cab, holla back,
for foreigners it ain't fitted act like they forgot how to act,
8 million stories out there and they're naked,
city it's a pity half of y’all won’t make it,
me I gotta plug a special and I got it made,
If Jeezy's payin LeBron, I’m paying Dwayne Wade,
3 dice cee-lo
3 card marley,
Labor Day parade, rest in peace Bob Marley,
Statue of Liberty, long live the World Trade,
long live the king yo,
I’m from the Empire State thats…

Welcome to the bright light..
[Jay-Z]
Lights is blinding,
girls need blinders
so they can step out of bounds quick,
the side lines is blind with casualties,
who sip the lite casually, then gradually become worse,
don’t bite the apple Eve,
caught up in the in crowd,
now you're in-style,
and in the winter gets cold en vogue with your skin out,
the city of sin is a pity on a whim.
good girls gone bad, the city's filled with them,
Mommy took a bus trip and now she got her bust out,
everybody ride her, just like a bus route,
Hail Mary to the city your a Virgin,
and Jesus can’t save you life starts when the church ends,
came here for school, graduated to the high life,
ball players, rap stars, addicted to the limelight,
MDMA got you feeling like a champion,
the city never sleeps better slip you a Ambien

[Alicia Keys]
One hand in the air for the big city,
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty,

流星 縱然1閃即過, 捉不緊也留不住,
卻帶給人們希望和美好的回憶, 讓人期待它下1次的來臨.
我想,當失意的人,才會祈待流星的出現
因為開心的時候,你根本沒機會在深夜獨自呆呆看天.

王菲 長大
Was listening to one of Faye's old songs. Just brought back lots of memories.
王菲 長大
曲 : 鄧建民
詞 : 陳少琪
想到昨日 我尚幼小
望向風裏 愛天真淺笑
天空永恒幻變 多麼奧妙
我卻幼稚管不了
青蔥歲月 靜靜遠飄
路上奔波 再也不懂淺笑
彷彿氣球在風飄
怎意料 慨歎這是否需要
你說這叫長大 我說這多麼的費解
我愛看這世上有多大
可惜世界轉變太快
當我厭倦 再沒法走
默默哭叫 我要當天所有
感觸世情幻變 猜想以後
不改只有 遠遠的星宿
每次失意躲避 我說多麼可悲
我愛昨天那自我天地
多麼粗糙 卻也多優美

Funnies
Yesterday was a disaster until I read this on my friend's fb status. At least the day ended with a good story.
Earlier in the day i went to the pet store to buy food and bedding for my hamsters. later i realized i had purchased the wrong food (for some reason grabbed food for rat?!) and also decided to buy a different type of bedding. so i went back to the pet store to return the items. as the pet store employee was working on my refund, he asked me: did your rat not make it?

What kids think of love
Repost from a link online, so cute!
When a group of 4 to 8 year-olds where asked the question, "What does love mean?", the answers were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think...
When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.
Billy - age 4
Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.
Karl - age 5
Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.
Chrissy - age 6
Love is what makes you smile when you''re tired.
Terri - age 4
Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.
Danny - age 7
Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.
Emily - age 8
Love is what''s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
Bobby - age 7
If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate.
Nikka - age 6
Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.
Noelle - age 7
Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.
Tommy - age 6
My mommy loves me more than anybody .You don''t see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.
Clare - age 6
Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.
Elaine-age 5
Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Brad Pitt.
Chris - age 7
Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.
Mary Ann - age 4
I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.
Lauren - age 4
When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.
Karen - age 7
You really shouldn''t say ''I love you'' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.
Jessica - age 8

Life is good
Life is good in that...
You can take a shower in the morning and the hot water running will make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can eat a plate of pasta and have some fresh OJ to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can see an ultrasound photo of a week 26 unborn baby to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can listen to happy Brazilian bossa nova music to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can listen to a silly Chinese radio show to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can read a Miranda July book to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can paint your toe nails to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can talk to your best friend to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can find your lost umbrella to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
You can drink and dance your night away to make you temporarily forget all the problems.
So, how many happy things do you have to plus to minus all the unhappy things in life? I don't know. But it's good to be alive to experience both happiness and unhappiness.

Update
Haven't updated for a while. Just been studying. None of this material is really getting in my head and it makes me depressed. My head keeps on pushing out this technical information to free up space for the emotional information. Very bad, especially since the test will happen in 12 days.
To get out of depression, I went to celebrate my cousin's gf's bday party Saturday night. I had no expectations because it was at going to be at a place called "China1" in LES. Turned out to be a great party. Good crowd, music and drinks. Most of Jess's friends who came were from high school and they were very nice. I was pretty wasted and had a good time mingling with all these new people.
I met this dude at the end. Definitely not the cutest guy (well he was short), but he was friendly and we were hitting it off with a pretty damn good conversation. So what that he likes to do adventurous sports, make short films, speak fluent French and inherited a house in Belgium? You know what, I can't identify these connections any more. It's like when you think you are scoring at an interview and you end up not getting the job. Anyways, he bought me a drink and exchanged numbers. We were talking on and on for at least an hour before getting another drink. During the time he put my hand on my waist and I didn't turn him down. Then we stepped out and went back to my place. Well I told him specifically that nothing would happen that night (and he said I was being very direct, haha).
Did he really just want to check out my balcony view or want to hook up? We ended up just talking until the sun rises and he gave me a polite goodbye kiss.
This reminded me how E and I started, except that we both drank a lot that night.
To be continued...
