So I've never really been into white guys or even given them a second thought. But after some experiences in Hong Kong, I have definitely become more open-minded in that area and am willing to open up my heart a little more.
There's this white guy in my acting class, Mike. He's not exactly the best looking guy, but there is something about him that captures me....his personality. He's witty, clever and makes me laugh.
My roommates and I went bar hopping tonight but eventually ended back on campus for the Senior Pajama Party, which was really fun. I even got to dance with Mike :) |

Wow, I haven't been on livejournal for at least half a year now. Well, the only reason I'm on now is because xanga is down. Yes, I've been a traitor...but I have realized that the Boston LJ community is less commercial and more down to earth compared to the Boston Xanga Community. I can also open myself up more here because I know that very few people from Boston actually read this journal. So I do miss that about LJ :)
I'm definitely having trouble falling asleep. It's been a ritual of mine to toss and turn for an hour before I can actually fall asleep. And within that hour, thousands of thoughts just flood my head, causing unneeded headaches. Just thinking a lot about what's going to happen after the next few months. It's gonna either be teaching English in Japan or moving to Hong Kong for a corporate job that I don't have yet. Actually, I don't have a job pinpointed in either country:) It's crazy how 6 months before I left for Hong Kong to study abroad, I would anticipate everyday of those 6 months of how my experience would be like in Hong Kong. But now, here I am, literally moving to Hong Kong and hopefully settling and working in a mere 3 months. And I am definitely not as antsy as I was for the study abroad trip. I guess you could say that I am more mature now or maybe because my plans aren't set in stone yet, that's why I'm not hoping for anything specific.
I wish I could call Eric on the phone now....but I don't want to show my vulnerability. I miss him a lot more than he thinks, so much that I even scare myself. He's the guy that I was referring to in my last entry. We actually kinda split 2 weeks before I left. But we are keeping in touch now..I don't know what's gonna happen when I go back..
I'm thinking of getting the Ipod..Ipod or Mini Ipod? |

Whoa I haven’t been on livejournal for more than half a year now. I’ve been all over xanga but now since it is temporarily down, I will turn to my trusty LJ.
Also I haven’t been able to write some personal, personal thoughts on xanga because too many people read it and also the person that I want to write about has friends who have xanga as well and visits my page frequently.
Anyhow, here’s the story….
I was in Hong Kong from January-April, studying abroad and I was forced back to the states because of SARS. Me being the stubborn person that I am, decided to fly back and continue my life in Hong Kong, to hold on to as much as I can. So I’ve been back in Hong Kong since June and am leaving at the end of this month. I came back not really expecting to meet someone and I did. For those who know me, I am really picky and have not dated in YEARS! So now I finally find someone that I really like, but he is a local from Hong Kong and I have to leave soon. We have been friends for over a month and I have been crushing on since. One night we finally somehow just got together and we are dating now. I don’t think he is ready for long distance because his last girlfriend was an exchange student and they broke up because she had to go back to Canada. Plus we have only been dating for 2 weeks but I guess it’s harder for me because it’s really difficult for me to find someone that I really like! Am I repeating myself? Well it’s true.
And I don’t know if I have been oversensitive lately to some things that he has and has not done. I’ve never been in a real relationship before either so I don’t know… ahhhh…I am frustrated….
If it was up to me, I would want to do long d because it will only be for 8 months until I graduate. And I could come back in during christmas...it all depends on how he feels...when I fall, I fall HARD!
I only have 17 more days left in Hong Kong and I feel like he is not cherishing the little time that I have left. Argh!!!!!!!! |

2 weeks ago we had another in-house day here to bring in prospective candidates for the Buyer Training Program and it is some serious stuff. During the summer I had thought that I would want to be in the program and become a buyer but my sentiments have changed since then. I think I learned a little more about myself this semester. I had wanted to be at TJX after graduation because I liked the company, I liked how it offered stability, I liked how I had already built strong relationships here, I liked how the buyer training program had a whole career path laid out, and I also liked the fact that I could get an internship in the buyer training program this summer and up my chances of being accepted into the program…but then I was thinking, this isn’t really my dream, this isn’t really what I want to do. I only wanted to do it because it was going to be an easy path. I’m still young, I can do what I want now. I don’t need to worry about stability. I don’t have a family to feed.
One of my managers here asked if I really wanted to do it because it was a lot of numbers and that he knew I get my energy from other people and not from “things or numbers”. Now instead of having an internship in the buyer program, I am having one in marketing/advertising, hopefully the events planning one!

My brother and I went to 2 Blockbusters and a Hollywood video to try to find Barbershop, and they were all taken out!! Yesterday was the first day it came out too. I ended up buying a previously viewed version of The Sweetest Thing- Funny and Cute movie. I am going to go back on Saturday to try to rent Barbershop so I can watch it with my bro before I leave! |

so what did I do over the long weekend? EAT!! Wednesday some of my friends came over my dorm since noone was here and we had hotpot. someone was supposed to bring the burner but didn't so we used the rice cooker! it worked. eating hot pot at home is so much cheaper than shabuzen. it only costed us $4 per head! but eating with these people is always a contest. We are not polite at all. we eat savages, monsters!! Afterwards went to STeve's to play some poker since he was back from amherst.
An came back this weekend too. She was so happy to be back. She kissed me on the cheeks for like 10 times in 1 day.
Chilled with the family on thursday and I cooked one dish!
Friday had the NAG annual thanksgiving dinner. I didn't play Mah jong. Mah jong costs so much more than poker. you can win more but you can lost more.
Picked up my cup from the clayroom that I made. It had one of my favorite quotes on it "Just when the caterpillar thought life was over, it became a butterfly." |

I just finished preparing my presentation of an artist that I think has influenced society and myself and the person is:
MISS LAURYN HILL
this woman is great, she's real, spiritual, intelligent, honest and talented. For thos of you who read my old entry from the summer, ya'll know why I dig her! “Your will is a gift and when you submit your will to someone else’s opinion, a part of you dies.” - L-Boogie
.......
My Flora Chan cd came in last week. Very good album even compared to Sammi and Joey.
I want to buy the Sammi and Miriam cd so bad but I am going to Hong Kong in 32 days so I am going to wait. |

There are some people who dance to just dance, ie. swaying back and forth and thats it. And then there are people who dance and really get into the music. I appreciate people like that! It`s hard to find someone who`s style is compatible to yours. There has only been a select few that really gets me going on the dance floor. I guess that is the same with life.
.....
My roommate thinks I am the most pickiest person ever! And she knows me quite well. She even went as far to saying " My sister is picky, she`s almost as picky as you, but I don`t know if that`s even possible." I`m not picky, I just want and like things a certain way!
....
Cooked for the freshmans tonight again. Made 3 big dishes of fried rice and one dish of beef chow fun. I am going to miss these boys when I leave for HK and Alice too! |

Different people value different things and I am a person that values individuality. Knowing and having your own identity, your own style, your own scent, your own walk, your own path, your own dreams. Having your own style is key. setting yourself apart from everyone else. Being distinct. I appreciate people with their own style. Whatever your style is, really represents who you are. If you dress loud and funky, you are usually energetic and outgoing. You can tell a lot about a person by their style, their flair.
.....
I`m an independent person. Sometimes I like doing things on my own and some people don`t get it. They get confused. they think i`m acting shady but people who really know me understand how I am and that`s just who I am. my individuality |

Is everyone living life, letting life live them or just living for the sake of living? How many of us are truly living life?! I`ve been through all 3 stages and currently I am just letting the days pass me by.
You know, I`ve been thinking, who says we HAVE to get a high paying job after we graduate? maybe i want to join the army. who says weHAVE to go to college after highschool? maybe i want to start a business.Who says that if I don`t have a car then I am poor? Maybe I just like walking. Who says the amount of money you make determines your level of happiness? Who is forcing all this on us? SOCIETY.
We`re always being measured and compared in life. From the day we are born. oh you`re shorter than all the other kids. you`re fatter, you`re smarter. Sometimes I am so tired of society ruling us, making decisions for us, deciding who we are, taking away our dreams. People have dreams out there to follow,but sometimes they don`t. They`re being held down by society`s rules of accomplishing certain things before they can move on to the next. They feel that they have to make so much money so society won`t classify them as poor or lower class, but does that make them HAPPY?! They don`t just go and do what they love. Many of us are letting society rule us. Rule yourself |

The marketing
director of Warner
Music in Hong
Kong wants to
meet me!!!
I just got back from running to my roommates and jumping up and down and screaming when I got the email! i was already done with my entry but I just got an email from the assistant of the marketing director of warner music. Remember those letters I sent out for internships to Hong Kong?!! It worked. I can't believe it. I sent them out, not sure if i was goin to get a response. something like this makes me feel that hardwork does pay off. If you just try, you never know that can happen. having faith does have its rewards.
I am so nervous! I am going to call them when I arrive in Hong Kong!! I need to do more mock interviews. this is so important to me!! i can't mess up!! i have a nose ring, what should i do, i really want to keep it.
well here's my initial entry...
Last night was it. It finally came. all the days of waiting and it was well worth it. Although we did have some problems here and there-hekktic, it still worked out. It has to be the best party that I have ever been to and I'm not just saying that because me and sensasia threw it. I wish I could have danced more. I haven't been to a good hip hop club/party in a while. The music was good, the place was nice, the crowd was good people and most importantly we brought JIN!!!!! He is short and he can't dance :D But he's still representing. I swear he looked taller on BET. For those of you who didn't go, please do yourself a favor and kick yourself because you missed the best party of your life. It felt like a music video up in there.
After Jin I had to go back to my dorm and STUDY! You heard me, S-T-U-D-Y!! I had an accountin exam the next morning at 9:55 am.
When I was driving Matt and Justin (freshmans) back to Bentley, they just cracked me up during the ride. They are so blunt but so funny. They reminded me of me. When I was younger, when I was their age. You know, I used to be more goofier, more outgoing, more blunt, more willing to meet people, more loud, more funny- more naive and more innocent. I wish i was young again. Those were the days. As you grow older, you start to slow down, your energy level is not as high, and you care more about what people think but then at the same time you don't care as much about what others think. Some people just never cared about what others thought. |
