| Stealing Yang's Quiz |
[02 Nov 2005|11:51pm] |
 | You scored as Buddhism. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Buddhism. Do more research on Buddhism and possibly consider becoming Buddhist, if you are not already.
In Buddhism, there are Four Noble Truths: (1) Life is suffering. (2) All suffering is caused by ignorance of the nature of reality and the craving, attachment, and grasping that result from such ignorance. (3) Suffering can be ended by overcoming ignorance and attachment. (4) The path to the suppression of suffering is the Noble Eightfold Path, which consists of right views, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right-mindedness, and right contemplation. These eight are usually divided into three categories that base the Buddhist faith: morality, wisdom, and samadhi, or concentration. In Buddhism, there is no hierarchy, nor caste system; the Buddha taught that one's spiritual worth is not based on birth.

funny...I consider myself Buddhist but only because my family is and I don't really know much about Buddhism at all. I should learn more about religions...I can't believe Christianity is on the bottom either.. I did go to a Christian Sunday school when I was little..

[17 Sep 2005|10:56pm] |
Well, tomorrow I will finally be moving in to UCSD and leaving Alhambra. Sad,excited, and worried. It's time to move on. It's not that bad, I should be back in a few weeks. I always wanted to college far away, even farther than SD.
There's still my monthly orthodontist visits. I went there today and I think my orthodontist said I will probably be able to take my braces off after my next visit or so. And this time I think he's actually right. Hahah. If I really can, then I have only gotten my braces back on for one year, just like what he said when I put them on.
At least classes don't start until Thursday.

"Yummy Yummy" Theme Song |
] |
I'm back! So far I feel no jetlag. I only slept for about three hours on the flight back to LAX and went to sleep only a little earlier than my normal bedtime last night. But now I miss Macao and China terribly.
The food tastes awful now. Everything tasted so good in China and Macao. =( My mom and I came home for our dad's home cooked dinner, but the food didn't taste good anymore. =X I was starving too because EVA Air's food on the flight back was TERRIBLE! I only took a few bites out of that airline food. =( Now I must readjust myself to the bad frozen meat and seafood they have in America, instead of longing for the fresh meat and seafood in China & Macao. =/ My dad says my mom and I have been spoiled from the food there. =X
I better stop listening to this song because it's making me miss everything there even more. I've been frantically searching for the two main dramas I've been watching in Macao & China. When I was in China, I always turned on the television to catch "Yummy Yummy" at 8:00p.m. and "Revolving Doors of Vengeance" at 9:00p.m. Now there's nothing good to watch when I get back. They show more korean dramas I can understand over there too!
Okay, enough of my drama rant. Here's a recount of the past two weeks:
MACAU
My mom and I were able to get an earlier flight when we transferred from Taipei to Macau, so we had to call my uncle to pick us up earlier. The plane ride from LAX to Taipei was terrible, the plane was horribly unsteady a lot of the times and the landing was the worst of all. It felt like a rollercoaster, we even heard several people screaming. Anyway, by the time my mom called, my cousin Hong Wah told us my uncle was already coming to pick us up. We waited for a few minutes and my cousin Maggie appeared. I definitely wouldn't have recognized her if I had to look for her. Even though I've seen pictures of her, I haven't seen her since I was three (Maggie is one year older than me, so she was four years old back then). My uncle came with the car and drove to their home which was on the 13th floor (thank goodness there was an elevator). I met my aunt and Hong Wah. I saw a bunch of the tourist attractions in Macau, but I skipped the casinos. Everybody was really welcoming and most of my relatives asked me whether I remembered anything from my last visit. Sadly, I don't have any memory of any of my relatives. My uncle drove my mom and I around a lot of places, but I don't remember most of the names (in Chinese). I was tired from all the walking we had to do. =(
Interesting facts-
-Drivers & Passengers don't have to wear seatbelts in Macau! In China, the backseat passengers are also not required to wear seatbelts, but the front seat driver & passenger are required to.
-All the food in Macau & China are fresh, not frozen (fish, poultry, etc.), so everything tastes better.
-Macau is rapidly expanding and all the buildings are built higher and higher. What once used to be the sea area, they have expanded the area and built more places around it.
-The streets are really narrow and curvy. There is limited parking and the driving in Macao and China is VERY DIFFERENT from America.
HONG KONG
On my second day, my uncle, his family(aunt & cousins), my mom, and I went to Hong Kong. But it was raining, so we only got to walk around the shopping area, eat lunch, and go back on the ship.
CHINA
Guangdong
After a few days in Macau, my uncle drove my mom and I to China. China has really nice scenery, especially the mountains and hills. There are not many cars on China's freeway. There aren't nearly as many lanes on the freeway either. When I arrived in Guangdong, I got to see my other uncle(bigger uncle) and aunt, my cousin Ann, and my grandpa. Living there felt like home. I miss it a lot, life there seemed so simple. I don't think I can ever cross the street alone in Macau or China. Everybody was so friendly. A week later, my little uncle came back and took my mom, my big uncle, and I to Guangzhou to see our other relative. The streets are so complicated there. We came back to Guangdong the same day. My aunt took us shopping a lot. My mom complained that I didn't want to go anywhere. It was really humid, sticky and sweaty, but not really hot.
MACAU
I went back to Macau the past Sunday. On my last night in Macau, my uncle took the family, my mom and I to a Portuguese restaurant. The food was okay, but I didn't think the food was great. But still better than the food here, of course.
Now that I'm back, I don't miss the internet. Nor did I really miss LA when I was in China either. Life there seemed so relaxed. But now I'm back to the worries. Now college really does seem to be arrivng soon. It really feels like a new road that I'm starting to walk on.
There was so much stuff I learned from my trip. I always thought my relatives in China & Macao got along pretty well, with no problems. I never knew of their opinions about each others actions and themselves. I learned a few more bad tidbits about my dad's side of the family. I learned a particularly bad tidbit about my second youngest cousin from my dad's side. All I have to say is that I have lost respect for him. He's probably the cousin I talk to the least with. I've probably spoken more words to my cousins from my mom's side who are in China than the second youngest cousin from my dad's side even though he lives in LA.
Yay, I finally got my room assignment. I have yet to contact my roomate. I wonder if she has been trying to contact me.

I'm finally in China on my cousin's computer. I'm going to go back to Macao in a few days. It's humid and it's sticky. But I doubt it's as hot as it is back at home. I thought I got over time difference, but now I'm not sure. Funny, after I went online today, I feel that my headache disappeared. More details when I get back.

This has been a pretty busy week. There's been so much to think about lately. Oh yah, "Lovers in Paris" ended this week, the ending was great, but the drama overall was funny and sweet at times. I started and finished watching "Love Story in Harvard" too. That drama was so cute! It was a bit slow-paced at times, but I managed to finish it before I go on my trip.
This is probably going to be my last entry before leaving for Macao. It's going to be so weird meeting relatives I haven't seen since I was three years old. I'll be staying at Macao for a short while before my uncle takes my mom and I to China. I still have to seriously pack everything by tomorrow night before my early morning flight.

| SPU Trip! |
[01 Aug 2005|05:57pm] |

Yay, I managed to finished Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince before the trip. Even though a lot of people are upset a certain event in the book, I thought the plot was very well crafted despite the sadness of that particular event.
Wednesday, Day 1-LA to Las Vegas
There were seven of us-Janey, Agnes, Julie, Angel, Jenny, Linda, and me. Too bad Darren and Angel T. couldn't make it. We waited at the Lincoln Plaza Hotel for the bus. Agnes was last to get on the bus, she arrived really late. Janey sat by herself =/! We went to this outlet, which didn't really have anything. We arrived at the New Frontier Hotel late in the afternoon. This Japanese guy was nice enough to exchange rooms with us because there was only one bed in one of the rooms. I roomed with Janey and Agnes in the first floor room while the others roomed in the third floor room because they liked it more there and they didn't want to move luggage down to first floor. Our room had a nice scene of the parking lot. I shared beds with Janey because Agnes kept threatening to push me off the bed. So Agnes was the only one who got the bed to herself. We walked the Strip and went to eat at the Circus Circus buffet. There was this aracade place and Janey won a teddy bear. Heehe.. it was so much fun teasing Pucca(Janey)! We saw a lot of nice scenery with all the night and went to the mall. All of us went back to the hotel around 10:30. I was about to open our hotel room with the key, but I found the door open without the use of the key. It was so freaky! I had to walk into the dark hotel room and check if there was anybody. Either someone had opened the room or I didn't lock the room properly before we left earlier. My glasses broke and I had to wear my contacts for the rest of the trip. I played Scrabble with Agnes before bed, but we were too tired to continue. I stepped on the scrabble pieces several times >_< because we didn't put it away at night! I couldn't fall asleep most of the night. hahaa.. at the middle of the night Janey was talking and I thought she was talking to me so I responded several times. In the morning it turns out Janey was actually talking in her sleep because Janey mentioned there might be ghosts at the New Frontier! I was like =O! I thought she was talking to me!
Thursday, Day 2-Las Vegas to Grand Canyon
I was the first to wake up in the morning since I couldn't sleep. Wake up call was at 5:30. >_< Agnes was last to wake up and get ready. Janey and I kept on rushing Agnes. =P By the time the others came down to pack, she was still not ready, so we left thinking she was almost done. We went on the bus and Agnes was again the last one on the bus to arrive and late. It was funny hearing the tour guide announce Agnes's arrival! hahaa. Janey sat by herself again. =p We finally arrived at Grand Canyon for a little while and took some pictures. There was a squirrel that Pucca said was poisonous. I think it might have had rabies. The hotel we stayed at was the biggest one in Laughlin, Nevada. It was called the Colorado Belle and shaped like a ship. This time Linda and Jenny wanted their own beds, so they played rock, paper and scissor to fight for their own bed. Jenny won. So Angel came over to sleep at the other room with Pucca, Agnes, and I. Agnes, Pucca, Jenny, Linda, and I went on this water taxi to go on the Colorado River. It was a very fast moving boat and it was very cool. At night, we played Scrabble. Janey got frustrated because she couldn't use KAYAK! hahaa. Then we went to bed at 12:30 and started poking fun at Agnes because Agnes was threatening me again. I shared a bed with Janey again. Agnes fell asleep at 1:30. Angel, Janey, and I an interesting conversation until 3:00 AM since all of us couldn't fall asleep yet.
Friday, Day 3-Laughlin to London Bridge to LA
Agnes was last to wake up again. Pucca, Angel, Agnes, and I went to get breakfast. Janey sat alone on the bus again and I sat with space hogger (Agnes). Janey offered the seat next to her, but of course I know her bag was there and her bag probably had her husband (mr. teddy bear) and she wouldn't want me to sit there. =P The London Bridge area was hot and there wasn't much to do. Later, we went to the other side of the outlet, which was better, but I still didn't get anything. I finally got home around 5:30.
When I got home, I took the online placement for Revelle, so I'll get my recommended classes from an advisor in August. Oh yah... now I remember I have to take that Chem Placement exam. I keep on forgetting to or delaying it.
The trip was good. But it was really hot and really humid at times. I inhaled so much bad air and cigarette smoke from Las Vegas and Laughlin. And it didn't help that our tour guide even smoked. I guess now for the rest of the summer, we'll all be going on our trips at different times. haah. Agnes will be in HK this upcoming Friday, Janey will be in China next Sunday. Then I'll be going to my trip the time Agnes comes back from HK and when Janey goes to HK. Then I'll be coming back the exact same day Jenny and Linda will be going to their trip. =P
Awww...I miss teasing Janey. On the bus, there was a girl who looked exactly like Pucca. She often wore a pony-tail and sat two seats behind me the first day. On the second day, she had a "i love usa" t-shirt on. Then on the third day, she sat behind Jenny and Linda with a blue shirt on!

Yay, I finally got myself a copy of the sixth Harry Potter book yesterday. Now I'm trying to finish it by tomorrow so I won't have to bring it on the SPU trip (don't exactly want to carry such a thick book around)or wonder how it ends throughout the trip. So far I think I'm done with more than a third of the book. So I hope I'll finish before the trip.
I don't think what I really do these days. But days just pass by quickly. On Saturday I played basketball with a bunch of Agnes' friends including Connie H. Mean Linnie couldn't make it. Soon a lot of people left. So sad, Agnes and I were beaten so badly in one game because we were playing with Connie H.'s lil bro and this junior guy. >_< Later Agnes and I played against her sister and I the ball hurt my thumb when it hit down on it. It's been hurting for two days since Saturday. =/ Oh no, must get back to reading.

Here are the better versions (better than album version) of three of the group pics for the 4th of July I said I'd upload--
( Fourth )
Yesterday I came home from the orthodontist with more disappointing news. I'm positive I'll have to keep my braces on for longer than the the supposedly 1 year period. More teeth extraction, x-rays, and visits to my orthodontist, dentist, and x-ray person(what do you call those people??). I just really hope this doesn't ruin my plans to go to China. I just wished that passpo rt would come sooner. Somehow I think this will ruin my vacation plans since my mom really wants me to get my teeth extract earlier. Plus, she's such a worry wart about how I'll be able to come back from SD for orthodontist appointments. Gosh...now redo-ing (that doesn't look like a word) my braces is more troublesome than the first time I got them.
Got back home in time to go take some grad photos w/ Agnes and Linh. I'm glad to finally get those photos done with because my relatives ask for them too much. Waiting for the photos took long, but with Linh and Agnes along, everything was better. We got ice cream and I finally found that old flavor I liked a lot! Pecan Praline.. but it didn't taste as good as I last remembered it and I think I tasted a walnut instead of pecan again. =/
I've catching up on reading fun books and watching another kdrama, Lovers in Paris(yes, the one on ch.18). Trying to find "All In" to watch too.

I spent the first part of my day just shopping with my parents and relatives. Kind of boring, but I needed to go. I went to celebrate July 4th with Jenny, Linda, William, Howard, Julie, Agnes, Vivian, and Janey again. Both Angels couldn't make it. =( Finding parking near Jenny's house was terrible, I only realized why after an hour I got there. >_< almansor park is really close. I already uploaded the pics, if you guys want the real non-resized photo, just contact me. photos-- http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/polarpooh17/album?.dir=/20ef
We went to watch fireworks at the park and then lit our own later. I caught a few movie clips of the fireworks with my camera. I was too lazy to hold the camera long and didn't zoom in, plus the quality isn't that great. so, I'm too lazy to upload any of them to here even though I did get the full picture of many fireworks. You can hear the voices of howard and william in the background saying "whoooaaa..aaa", "wow", and "awesome". haha. Then i taped the shimmery thing we saw on jenny's garage door when we lit fireworks. There are a bunch of voices again and I heard agnes say "cool!" hehehe. Our group touched many nerdy and awkward topics. lol. yay! I saw both connies today! I guess I still get to make fun of connie w. after this summer's installs! Plus, thanks connie h. for being so nice and offering your jacket!
My mom's relative ended up not coming to my house after all. We haven't heard from him at all. So I didn't really need to get my room clean. =( But now I'm a little obsessed about keeping it clean. =( Oh well, there are still other parts around the house I need to clean. Plus, I have to see what's wrong with my old computer and see if it's still functional. I guess I'll get a laptop and leave this computer at home if the old comp isn't functional. There are still so many more things to do even though I don't have a class or anything anymore. I am finally getting back into the "reading" mode too!
I watched Infernal Affairs I & II these last few days since I never watched it before. I think I rather stick with my dramas, and non-violence movies. =X
I forgot to tape that chinese show I was watching last night!! Grr, I kept on thinking yesterday was a weekend day and not a weekday! =( The show is almost ending too. ='(

I spent most of yesterday cleaning my room. And I mean completely cleaning and throwing out everything. But cleaning never seems to end. I was so exhausted by the end of the day. I have to finish cleaning all my parts of the house by tomorrow because my mom's relative is coming. There are so many papers and stuff I have from elementary school and high school. I've cleared some space in my bookshelf, but I think I should somehow find more books to give away. I just can't bear to give away some of those lil kid books I have. And believe me, growing up as an only child, I have a LOT of books. I have no more space in my bookshelf. =/ I went through every drawer and cabinet and drawer that was mines in my room. It's amazing how easily dust consumes an area. I'm afraid I'll get an eye infection again because of all the dust I've seen and cleaned away these few days. But cleaning is reminding me of stuff I've forgotten a long time ago. I've found letters, projects, etc. I even found the picture of Linh eating snow again. =)
haha, I don't know why but it feels better now that my room is clean and it seems like there's just more space around. I hope I can keep it this clean though. I went through 5 days of cleaning my parts of the house! And i'm still not done. phooey.
I feel like baking again. I tried baking a cheesecake this past week, but I didn't have the right kind of pan. So I ended up baking it too long and it tasted weird.
Oh ya, I have a humongous stack of test prep books, if anybody wants to buy them from me. I didn't write on several of them (= brand new.) >_< Price is negotiable. I have SAT I (old--I doubt anybody wants them anymore), SAT II, and a few AP (U.S.??, Gov't, Euro) books. Contact me.

Special entry for Joannie since I didn't mention her and SD last time.
I'm SUPER SORRY Joannie! I didn't know that you want to get into UCSD next year too! You never told me and I feel so lonely because practically everybody is going to/wants to go to LA. Plus no one is planning on visiting me either ='( I wish you and Kacey the best of luck getting in!
Now the boring stuff---
The rest of my summer has been busy. I've been lazy and busy and trying to not go online as much. Aww... darn... just remembered more people I'm supposed to contact.
My summer cleaning is not progressing very well. But I'm supposedly forced to get done by July 4th before my mom's relative comes to town. Cleaning and chinese dramas/ other types of movies have been keeping me preoccupied.

I wanted to be the first to update about installs, but of course it would be difficult. I came home around 12 midnight and I woke up late. But of course I have to update about it even though lots of people already did. How can I not? Each person has a different perspective of it anyway. Knowing how long-winded I am, I warn everybody of a SUPER LONG entry.
Agnes' dad picked Mandy and I up to go to Olive Garden. I'm so glad Ling & HOW HOW made it to installs! It was great seeing them again. The food was much better this time. I sat next to Janey and Joannie! I still haven't thought of a name for Daniel. I feel bad for him since he looks so much like Kenn and he's like Kenn's substitute. Poor him. That's why I must think of a new name for him! Dannia does not work. Kennia was great.. but Dannia doesn't have the right tone... Hey! How about Daniella! Hehe..I kept on poking and hitting Joannie. =P And I got to say my farewell to Janey's Hello Kitty pencil bag! Congrats to all the new officers. Thank you Campus underclassmen and Spring 2005 SPU chairs, LISA & LESLIE! I totally did not expect such a great trip. I have no idea how you guys pulled it off! 3 days, 2 nights, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, and Laughlin, Nevada? Thanks for the t-shirt, Lisa! Thanks for the pic & frame, Waynesford. Thanks for signing my yearbook. Thanks for taking the group picture that took forever, Ling & Howard!
Wow, it's finally over. The last chapter of my high school life. I'm going to miss everyone so much and I love all my Campus buddies! The club meant so much to me, I really couldn't get this type of experience anywhere else. Like Rita told me, the Campus Class of 2005 started off installs at Olive Garden and now we end at Olive Garden. I'm sure this won't be our last event together though. We still have the magnificent SPU trip and probably more reunions, right? It was sad saying our goodbyes. Haha.. nobody is really visiting me because I'm going to SD. I feel so sad that I'm moving the farthest to college out of all the Campus seniors. But it's okay, because I'll probably come back at the very least once a month? Saying our goodbyes at the end was sad and difficult. Some of the new members are so cute! Thanks for the hugs Monica, Connie, and Carmen. I barely know you guys this year, I wish I could stay longer now. haha. I saw quite a few missing new members and old members like Angel T. and Kacey! No Kacey! =/ But it's okay. Maybe I'll see Kacey, later on? Thanks for all the hugs from everybody. I just realized I didn't hug Janey! ='( But there's still SPU trip. haha.
Four years with Campus. So many services, so many friends, so many memories. Absolut Chalk, Tofu Festival, PAM, AIDS WALK!!! LA Marathon, Xmas Caroling, Operation Santa. The people there are always interesting and they're usually so happy that you're there to help. Installs, pool socials, Leslie's house socials, Christmas Socials, Play Socials, Mtgs, Homecoming Float decorations!
Here's my extended msg to Campus members: ( Messages to Specific members in no Specific Order )
Like Janey mentioned in her xanga, I feel like Campus is my second family as well. =D
After Installs, Agnes & I took a quick trip home because Agnes wanted to change and put down stuff. I picked up Agnes, Alan, and Amy to go to Bowling with Campus. Sorry, we made everybody wait! >_< I suck at bowling. haha. It's my first time though haha.. Ling is so good at it! Playing in the same lane as Ryan, Agnes, Alan, and Amy was fun. We were the last to leave. Haha.. our last game ended like at midnight when the place closed.
Today's the Northrup reunion. That'll be interesting. I didn't find about about until last night though. =/
Oh, I dropped my Computer Accounting ROP yesterday too. So I don't have that much to do over the summer except clean-up.
And lastly, the photos. This includes CAMPUS INSTALLS, GRADUATION, LAST DAY, SENIOR LUNCHEON, ETC. all the stuff i promised, but never posted until now. leave a comment if u want the original pic. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/polarpooh17/my_photos

Well, that was it. Last night was awkward, sweet, and a relief. The anticipation has ended. The only point where I felt a hint of sadness and possibly wanted to cry was when "Pomp and Circumstance" began to play. Probably because I remember playing that song myself, back when I was in eighth grade. I didn't feel terribly sad, just extremely glad that there's finally no more high school. The only time I think I might truly cry is at the Campus installs. Parting with Campus would be the most difficult part of high school, besides parting with all my friends. But Campus consists of some of my closest friends anyway. And parting with Campus is not just separating from the people in there, it's the leadership, the teamwork, the laughs, the memories, the new experiences it continually grants me. There's just so much that I'll be leaving.
Anyway, back to graduation. Haha, the weirdest part of the whole event was when the guy next to me broke his chair. =P I was sitting there and suddenly felt the guy on the right of me push down on my chair so he wouldn't fall down. I think he was rocking back on his chair or something.
They messed up the order when they called my name. =/ Oh well.
After the ceremony ended, I kept on trying to look for people to take pictures. Stupid Agnes! I couldn't find her. blah. I couldn't find a lot of people, though. JanEY!!! Yangs too. My mom kept on seeing these people I didn't even know.
I finally read some of those messages in my yearbook! Some of those messages brought back memories I forgot long ago and made me nostalgic. I must confess, I'm not good at keeping in touch. But I'll try to keep in touch more now.
Wow, at graduation I saw Mr. Hinojosa. I was surprised and glad I got to see him one last time before he's leaving Northrup for the high school level. Especially since I felt bad that I never got a chance to go back to Northrup this week. I've been so busy since the last day of school. Is this the true start of adulthood?
I'm really nervous about going to college. Even though I know there are a lot of Class of 2005 alumni going to SD, I'm not close to most of them. Orientation is tomorrow and I'll have to pack and sleep early tonight.
Sorry I couldn't go with you to your lunch thing, Helen! I'm not sure if you read this, but we'll do something later on. Linh too! Remember we have to plan something a week later or something. =P
Darn I forgot to tape that tv drama that was on last night since I was rushing to graduation. =/ I must remember to tape it Monday, just in case I don't get to see it.
I'll post up some of the good pictures later.
