I didn't crawl into bed until around 3:30 this morning because I was studying for my Econ exam. I woke up at around 5:30 to the sound of my roomate puking into a trashcan right next to my delirous body.

What is it about me that just makes people want to vomit in the middle of the night?
(Molly - don't answer that.)

So seeing how I didn't get much sleep last night, I think I'm gonna pass out for a couple hours now. G'bye.

This guy is searching for a soulmate. Won't you help out by being his friend?

While I was looking for that Weeeee clip, I came across this. It's a cute little story of a poo poo and a pee pee. Awwwwww.

... Nothing but poopies!!!

Just got in from my Biology class and I would like everyone to know that my professor is awesome. He spent almost 30 minutes last Friday talking about the condition of his right testicle. He tells us that he "lost" it a few years ago and it "appeared" just recently. Despite the extreme satisfaction he felt when he became reaquainted with his lost testicle, he had to have it surgically removed nonetheless because it was twice the size of this other one. Then he told us a joke...

A Texan goes to visit Harvard and he asks one of the students there politely, "Excuse me, but can you tell me where the library's at?" The Harvard student replies, "I'm sorry, but people here don't end their sentences with prepositions." The Texan then corrects himself by saying, "Oh I'm terribly sorry, but can you tell me where the library's at, bitch?"

I love it when Bio professor digresses. Especially to tell us stories about his nuts.

Speaking of nuts, I think that is incentive for me to post this yet again. Hold on to your... gonads, and strife.

Hmm... Sad. Supposedly my soul is only worth £23272. I am unpure!!! *Cry*

I went shopping yesterday and spent too much money yet again. However, my excuse this time is that I haven't been shopping in a long time and so I needed to release some pent-up energy (you know, instead of having lots of crazy sex, I just shop). I was craving shopping so badly that I went to Eckerd's and bought shampoo last week. Loreal's kids' shampoo, too. Mmm citrus mango smoothie...

I have serious issues.

Anyway, I bought the new Dave solo CD and the Outkast CDs. I'm listening to Dave right now and all is good. I don't care what you say David, but they're still my favorite band. =P

I have yet to listen to Outkast but I hear it's good so I'll be looking forward to that. How exciting!

I also have to study for two upcoming exams, too. I can't even begin to tell you how fun that sounds right about now. Anyway, I'm gonna start on that, but I hope that you all are doing well. Be good now, ya hear?

Why do I find stuff like this so horribly amusing? You... poke... bouncing... sheep. *Poke poke*

Oddly enough, these sheep make the same noises when you poke at them as I do when someone tries to wake me up.

My friend kindly informed me yesterday during my Economics class that the classroom we were in was the same classroom in which Kevin Spacey taught in the movie, The Life of David Gale. She also told me that the seat I was in was the same one that Berlin sat in during the classroom scene. Now all I have to do is seduce and make my professor have hardcore sex with me and then claim rape afterwards. Hurrah!

Which shouldn't be too hard seeing how my professor is a woman and all...

So anyway, you guys want to hear something funny?

I'm pledging for a sorority!

No, I'm not kidding. And yes, I'm just as shocked about this as most of you are.

I never thought that I would be the "sorority type" but I decided to rush a couple weeks ago just for the hell of it. I can meet some people and probably even get some free stuff out of it. And you know how I'm all about free stuff. So I rushed. And I *did* meet people and get free stuff. But I also realized that everything I had ever known, every bad stereotype about sororities, this one was the exact opposite. Since it's so small and new, I found it to be less of a "sorority" than a "club". A club of really nice girls who share similar interests, cultures, and backgrounds. Did I mention that it's an Asian interest sorority? Seeing how most of my friends from high school are Caucasian (not that it's a bad thing, of course), I thought that it might not be a bad idea to meet some more Asian people.It's also very laid back, and it's not all about parties and frat guys. So I'm giving this sorority thing a shot. Who knows? Maybe I'll end up hating it and drop out. But hopefully it'll be a really rewarding experience and I'll end up with some really great friends instead.

Oh my God, what have I gotten myself into?

So. Congratulations to my ASR Zeta class pledge sisters: Julie, Vivian, Phuong, Janice, and Denise. We get to be Greek Geeks together. =)

Ohgoodnessmyohme, it is already Monday. How is it that weekends go by so fast while weekdays go by so slow? I vote that we have three-day weekends, every weekend to balance things out. I mean, you're still working more than you are not working, but you're getting more rest and everyone will be happier and we will finally have world peace. I should be the king of everything.

As you contemplate what life would be like when I take over... I'd like to take some time and do a little somethin' somethin' otherwise known as the Friday Five:

1. Who is your favorite singer/musician? Why? Aww but I have so many! I'm definitely still a big fan of Dave Matthews (even though they sold out, I know). I'm excited about their new CD coming out this Tuesday.

2. What one singer/musician can you not stand? Why? Avril Lavigne. Mainly because she... what's that word... oh yeah... sucks.

3. If your favorite singer wasn't in the music business, do you think you would still like him/her as a person? I don't think so. I'm a fan of Dave Matthew's music because he and the people in his band are really talented musicians. But they're always drunk, so... I don't think I could like him much if he didn't put out such great music.

4. Have you been to any concerts? If yes, who put on the best show? Yeah, I've been to a few concerts. And of course I would have to say that Dave puts on the best shows. He's really good live. Weezer and Bare Naked Ladies were both pretty good as well. I need to start going to more concerts now I am in the "Live Music Capital".

5. What are your thoughts on downloading free music online vs. purchasing albums? Do you feel the RIAA is right in its pursuit to stop people from dowloading free music? I used to burn all of my CDs, and am now just starting to buy them instead. I think it's good to, you know, "support the artists", but I think that if I just wanted to download a couple of songs here and there just to listen to them, then I shouldn't have to worry about getting my ass sued. I'm a broke college student! I don't have the money to buy every single CD that I want, especially if I only want to hear one song from it.

So it was a good weekend for football (ha! You never thought that I would ever talk about football, did you?). Titans, Tennessee, and Texas won. Texas better have won after that humiliating loss to Arkansas last week. Ugh. It hurts just thinking about that. Is it weird hearing me talk about sports? Hrm. It should be.

Anyway, I better go to bed now. I just spent all night in the study lounge reading about the wonders of economics. Cause it's fun, see? You kids take care now. Nighty night.

So I hear that I need to write more. Sadly, my life has not gotten any more interesting now that I'm here. Therefore, I find it difficult to find things to write about. I do apologize.

However, it has been brought to my attention a few days ago from Boy that it is indeed Talk Like A Pirate Day on September 19th. Mark it on your calendar, folks... that's this coming Friday.

Whilst engaging in a conversation with Eric tonight...
SooshiMooshi: arrr
Eric types: Arrrrr
Eric types: You going to celebrate it?
SooshiMooshi: of course! arrr
Eric types: Arrrrr
SooshiMooshi: i need an eyepatch
Eric types: I need a wooden leg
SooshiMooshi: i need one too. to shove up your butt
Eric types: I'll kick you in the face.
SooshiMooshi: with what? the wooden leg that's up your ass?
Eric types: I hate you

And since I'm just so excited about this forthcoming holiday, I decided to so you just how sexxy (with two X's) I am as a pirate.

Wanna shiver me timbers?

I do what I can to keep you people informed.

I want to go.

If someone would just buy me a ticket to NYC, everything else will be free! See? What a great deal!

I also wish that I were Japanese so I can go on TV and do one of these neat little stunts. I must say that the ping-pong clip is the coolest one. Hehe. So silly.

May Mr. Cash rest in peace.

I had a dream last night that I was going to Taiwan today and only had a few hours to pack. I also didn't get a chance to tell anyone that I would be leaving because I was so rushed. Then I was woken up to the sound of my roomate's alarm. In fact, I was woken up EIGHT times because she kept hitting the snooze button. Ahh, the joys of sharing a room with someone else.

Anyway, it's Friday.

1. Is the name you have now the same name that's on your birth certificate? If not, what's changed? No, the name I have on my birth certificate is in Chinese.

2. If you could change your name (first, middle and/or last), what would it be? In 5th grade, my friends used to tell me that I should make up a middle name (since I don't have one) that starts with L so my initials would be TLC. But aside from that, I don't think I'd want to change my name unless it's to "Tamzilla", or "Tennessee Tina". ^_~

3. Why were you named what you were? (Is there a story behind it? Who specifically was responsible for naming you?) My Chinese name has three characters with the first character being my last name. The middle character is the same as the middle character as my brother's name (literal meaning - "sky") and so my parents decided to keep that. As for the last character, my grandfathers on both sides of my family each came up with different characters for the last part of my name. When they compared with each other, they saw that all of their choices were different except for one... and that's the one they chose.

4. Are there any names you really hate or love? What are they and why? Hrmm... I don't think there are any names that I specifically hate. But I love the names, Chole, Celeste, Tyler, Scott, and Alena. However, I must say that my favorite name of all time is Harry's. =)

5. Is the analysis of your name at kabalarians.com accurate? How or how isn't it? They told me...
The name Tammy creates a dual nature in that you can be very generous and understanding, but you can also be so candid in your expression that you create misunderstanding. You struggle with the requirement to soften your expression with tact and diplomacy and to consider the feelings of others. Difficulty in accepting advice or admitting that you may have made a mistake causes you to appear to be stubborn and set in your ways. Thus, you have too often created the wrong impression, and friendships have suffered. This name does offer creative talent where there is the opportunity for ingenuity and originality. You have a tendency, at times, to have too many ideas on the go, and thus your efforts are scattered and many things do not reach completion. You are inclined to do to excess the things you like to do. You have very intense feelings and find it difficult to maintain stability and happiness. If you allowed it, temper and self-pity could be problems.
I think the true parts about that is that I can be cery stubborn and it *is* hard for me to admit I made a mistake sometimes. I also do have a bad temper at times. Grr.

I do believe that tis time for me to take a nappity nap nap now. Night night.

Yay! Fire drill [actually, I'm not sure if it really was a drill or not...] at 4 in the morning! My favorite part of this whole experience was definitely walking back up 13 flights of stairs while I'm half-asleep.

Well, geez. That's enough exercise to last me for the rest of the year...

Saturday, September 6, 2003

Gee, is it that time already?

1. What housekeeping chore(s) do you hate doing the most? Vacuuming and dishwashing.

2. Are there any that you like or don't mind doing? Laundry and cooking. I really enjoy cooking, as long as someone will clean up my mess. =)

3. Do you have a routine throughout the week or just clean as it's needed? I get in one of my "cleaning moods" at least once every couple of weeks. Granted, my room will get messy again the day after I clean it, but that's besides the point.

4. Do you have any odd cleaning/housekeeping quirks or rules? I like to go through and clean other people's rooms, I just don't like cleaning my own. Don't you wish you were my friend?

5. What was the last thing you cleaned? My dorm. I had papers and clothes everywhere. But I gave that mess a good asskicking and now everything is clean again.

I'm at the brother's right now. And no, I don't spend more time here than I do in my own dorm. And even if I did, what would be so wrong with that? There's good, free, homecooking here, soft comfy couches and beds, pets to keep me company, and a brother to kick my ass. What more could I ask for? A couple of his friends are coming over later and we are going to play Monopoly. Aww good old fasion family fun. Only, I think it would go more like this:

Me: Ha! I've got a hotel on Pennsylvania Ave.
Terence: Fuck you! I hope you go to jail, biatch.

Speaking of which, the Star Wars Kid [link now fixed] is my new hero. I love you, SWK.

Anyhow, I'm gonna go get my game on now. Night!

I just spent way too much time on reading one of the most painful pieces of literature. Painful as in, "God, when does this essay end? Someone please make it stop."

And don't think that you can get away without reading a little excerpt...

"The Incapacity, if there be any, is acquired not natural; and none of their Follies are so necessary, but that they might avoid them if they pleas'd themselves. Some disadvantages indeed they labour under, and what these are we shall see by and by and endeavour to surmount; but Women need not take up with mean things, since (if they are not wanting to themselves) they are capable of the best. Neither God nor Nature have excluded them from being Ornaments to their Families and useful in their Generation; there is therefore no reason they should be content to be Cyphers in the World, useless at the best, and in a little time a burden and nuisance to all about them."

Oh yeah, I had to read A Serious Proposal to the Ladies by "A Lover of Her SEX" (Mary Astell) for my writing class on the Rhetoric of Feminism. My professor warned us that this was going to be the worst thing we'll read all semseter, and I wouldn't doubt that she was right. It was a short essay, no more than maybe 20 pages, but it took me almost 2 hours to finish because I had to keep reading and re-reading certain paragraphs since I couldn't understand what the hell she was saying. Granted, it was written in th 1600's but c'mon! I was so close to throwing my book into the washing machine and leaving it there. *Sigh* And it's only the second week of school.

I'm actually reading stuff for class now. I haven't done that since... oh wait, I've never done that! But anyway, I really should get back to finishing up the rest of my homework. Byebye!

[And from Molly's away message: "I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long."

I have been so bored here at my brother's that I've resorted to watching Scooby Doo the movie.

The truly sad part though? I actually found this movie incredibly entertaining.

Huh. No wonder I don't have any friends.

P.S. Happy No-Labor Day! Y'all be good now.
