| i didn't write anything this past quarter. don't ask me why. it's probably because i've been writing in my diary a lot more...that's right..steer away from technology. i don't even think people read this anymore. but yes, after this quarter, i have concluded that i need to get my priorities straight. that's about it.
being at home makes me ridiculously nostalgic. reading old xanga entries makes me think that i was such an emo kid in high school. when i don't have school to distract me...my brain starts working overtime...i hate overthinking.
stop it...just stop it. give your poor brain a break.

| i got totally owned today....by a crazy killer mosquito. so seriously, after my first day back, i woke up the following morning with a bite the size of half of the back of my right calf. it was seriously disgusting. i had to take pictures of it so that i had some evidence but i'll save you guys your eyesight. the day after the inside of my right foot was swollen. so yup, i was pretty much elephant leg for the past 3 days. very appealing. i'm glad that the swellings gone down though. HOWEVER, i was using the computer for like 30 minutes tonight....and in my peripheral vision, i saw a black thing flying around. i turned to swat it...but it was already too late. 7 bites in less than 30 minutes...and of course all on my right leg. =( my right leg's hideous! so afterwards, i was set on getting my revenge. i patiently waited....and of course the mosquito came back for more blood. this time though, i got it....totally smushed it with a piece of paper....and all of this blood squirted out....all of MY BLOOD that it stole. i HATE mosquitos. the end.
on a happier note, i met the most charming salesperson ever today. my mom and i were looking at purses and this young guy was just making conversation with us. i'm not going to lie...he was pretty attractive. but anyway, he kept on joking around and was saying how he was going to give my mom a good deal since we don't come to taiwan that often. by then, i was already pretty drawn to his personality and was tempted to tell my mom to just buy the purse. so my mom was like....alright...we'll come back after dinner. AND then he said..".don't worry, i'll give you a price that you'll be very happy with...after all you have such a pretty daughter. i keep on sneaking looks at her when you're not looking." wow. while i know he was probably just saying that, that totally won me over so i told my mom she had to buy the purse. and i have concluded that i am easily swayed. haha.
alright...that was pretty random. i hope all's well kids! =D | | |
| greeeetings from taiwan. yay for vacation. i had by far the most unproductive summer. the last 2.5 months consisted of work, julia's 21st, beach + jtown w/ leo and andrea, 3 dates with the wifey, 2 outings with leo and chewy, and an additional 10 minutes with the lovely roomie. yup, and that was it! at least i'm on vacation now...even though it's ridiculously hot and i'm rather enjoying the cold showers...since it's THAT hot. so the flight over wasn't THAT bad. i actually got lucky because i was sitting in the same row as the two younger guys and we were just randomly talking. it definitely beats sitting next to some of the older people...who can be pretty anal and antisocial. (note: i don't hate old people). but yeah, i arrived in taiwan at 5:30 in the morning. by 4:00, my mom and i were so tired that we took naps. when we woke up, it was already dark outside and my mom was like, "are you hungry?" since i wasn't we both just went to sleep again...and i ended up waking up at 6:00 am. very nice..... and now it's 9:00 am..and i have nothing to do. yay for being lazy. alright, that's it for now. i'll update with something exciting happens. =D | | |
| i haven't posted anything in 5 months. that obviously shows how i've done nothing since then. i have no idea what happened to my 3rd year at ucsd. i was talking to jen the other day...and i realized that i took more pictures this year....but...i probably went out half as much as i did last year. yeah so when i think about it, it actually makes me a little sad because i didn't really go out much and my classes totally owned me....all 3 quarters. how do we only have 1 year left?
so i wasn't even planning on working, but i felt like i had to vent. so we have a new manager at petites. at first i thought she was really nice, but then she totally started to take advantage of how nice i am so she now has me working ridiculous hours for anniversary sale. at first, it was like...tina...can you come in and work tomorrow? and since i had nothing else better to do...i went into work. so i guess she thinks that i'm never going to say no so she has me working for the first two days of the sale from 12 pm - 11 pm. what the... so yeah, i'm not going to be nice to her anymore! now it's going to be super curt tina who will speak minimally and only when i have no choice but to talk to her. might i add, she has me working 105 hours for the next two weeks. death. i guess though..this is bound to happen in the real world. i guess i've always been lucky because i've gotten along pretty well with all of my supervisors. i hate the real world.
on a completely different note....guess who i had as a customer yesterday? ok, well you'll never guess. apparently my customer yesterday was the wife and 2 daughters of the crown prince of the united arab emirates. like what the heck?! i had an idea that they were pretty rich because the daughter was like...10...and she was trying on this 300 dollar dress...and she was ridiculous snobby... me: how about this dress? red's a really nice color on you girl: (narrows her eyes): i HATE red wow.... not cool. but hey, i can't complain, they bought $1000 from me so i guess i can handle a bit of rudeness. but still, pretty random huh?
alright, that's pretty much all i wanted to say....that's an "update" of my life for the past 5 months. might i add, home is pretty lonely so it would be nice if you guys could grace me with your presence. thank you!

| happy new year! i guess it's more accurate to say happy chinese new year. i stayed away from xanga for 1 whole month. that's rather amazing actually. i do have to confess though that i have written a few private entries to TECHNICALLY i have been on xanga...just not posting up public entries. i'm quite proud of myself though because i've been writing in my diary a lot more often now...at least once a week. that's definitely an improvement from my last one...where i would usually write once a month. good job tina.
so i can't believe it's 5th week already. compared to last quarter...this quarter is definitely more chill. i don't even remember doing anything this quarter. excellent.
i think i need to stop breaking out too... i'm currently breaking out like no other. technically my mid college crisis has improved, but gahhh...midterms are stressing me out like mad.
yeah...i've been trying to think of something clever to say, but i keep thinking about those stupid cytoskeletal proteins (parM and actins) that are in bacteria...wow i'm such a nerd.
