I know I keep saying that I've found meaning in my life, but this time, I really found it. Watching this makes me feel (almost) as giddy as when I watched the Harry Potter Musical.
sweet
yes...
Behold. The official teaser trailer of "Avatar: The Last Airbender The Movie"
Life is good.

Houses and Pajamas
Good news. The landlord decided to be reasonable and is allowing me, my mom, and my dad to stay in our current house until September.
Now, my parents have been searching frantically for a new house, which I guess is a good thing...but that requires me to show my parents available houses online. I really want to help my parents out, but if they come into my room one more time asking me to stop doing whatever I was doing in my pathetic idea of summer, I will explode. My parents believe that I can do anything on the internet. I mean anything. Once a picture wasn't coming up because of the whole hotlinking thing and my dad told me to find the picture. I tried to tell him I couldn't find it and he flipped out. Ha, yeah. My parents are kind of driving me up the wall, but I guess it's good for me. At least I'm being somewhat productive. Lately, I really feel the need to not leave my home...at all. If I can, I try to stay home as often as possible. It's kind of hardcore sometimes. There will be days where I will not change out of my pajamas at all. It is fantastic. I never really realized how great being a hermit is. My parents don't constantly nag me for going out and I don't have to put on sunblock to protect my pasty skin. =] Score for me. I will admit that towards the afternoon, I am bored like crazy because I can't really think of anything to do. I don't want to watch T.V. because I'm sick of it and I don't want to read because I don't want to think. So, I just sit on the couch staring off into space wondering what I could do. Sooner or later it is 9 pm and I suddenly have the urge to watch dramas. I stay up late in order to watch dramas, even though I could have watched those dramas earlier in the day. I'm just not in the mood for dramas in the afternoon. Kind of strange, huh?
This concludes the most random blog ever. Peace.

clothes malfuntions
In this past week, I have had TWO major clothes malfunctions. One in Manhattan, New York and one in Sacramento, California. You know you have bad luck, when your clothes disobey you in two different states.
1) New York
I was in New York in order to go to my middle sister's graduation and a few friends of mine asked me to get them " I <3 NY" shirts. I needed to purchase two colored shirts and four white shirts. My oldest sister and I were walking around the city looking for the best bargain on shirts. We have so far only seen 3 white shirts for $10. That was still too expensive, until we came across this little tourist shop that sold 4 white shirts for $10.99 and 2 colored shirts for $10. My sister and I were super excited because those shirts were the cheapest so far. We clearly purchased the shirts and walked on are way. My mom wanted us to get tank tops with the same logo so we walked into another shop to get the tank tops. During our search, we saw the most horrendous thing. There were shirts with the signs "5 white shirts for $10 and 3 colored shirts for $10". My sister and I were devastated. we had lost a whole dollar and two shirts. We decided that what was done was done and that we would just forget about the whole situation. Then we saw a different shop selling 6 white shirts for $10! AHHHH! What the hell? We were angry about it until we got back to the apartment. My friends better love those shirts.
2) California
Today, I decided to wear a pleated mini skirt. The outfit was cute and I was off to school. On my walk, I felt my skirt fall a bit, but I had just assumed that the skirt was just to big for me. The more I walked the more the skirt would slip. I felt the back of my skirt and I felt, not a zipper, but fabric. I felt the fabric to my underwear! The zipper had come undone and my skirt was essentially falling off of me. I was so humiliated! Why don't the people behind me say anything?! I rushed quickly to my first period class and asked one of the Korean girls to help me zip my skirt back up (of course I spoke to her in Korean). T.T Bad things happen to good people.

vampires and pretty korean boys
Nation:
something amazing has happened to me.
Twilight and Boys Over Flowers happened to me.
No joke, I really love Twilight and I really love the korean version of Boys Over Flowers. Let's take a look at why those two things give me a reason to live my life.
1) Twilight
When I first saw this movie in the cinema, I was thoroughly . . . aggravated! Freaking, I paid a bunch a good $10 plus online fees to see this movie, and it was total crap. Kristen Stewart can only do the whole "i'm-an-angsty-moody-and-awkward-teenager" bit and she doesn't even do it well. The way she acts is like a classmate with a booger in his nose. You want to tell him that he needs to blow his nose, but you don't want to be rude; and yet you can't stop staring at that humungo booger. Yeah, that is Kristen Stewart to me. And then there is Robert Pattinson. He's lucky that he's hot! Robert Pattinson was so weird! Edward is supposed to be all suave and seductive, but Robert was all awkward and trying not to talk in a British accent. Freaking, half his lines were so forced. It made me feel uncomfortable watching him. He just tried way too hard and it did not come through. Also, the movie didn't even go into detail! Directors always say how the movie would have been too long and what not. Twilight was straight up, two hours and nothing. Does Catherine Hardwicke not know how crazy Twilight fans are? When you're a fan-pire you would be more than willing to sit through a six and a half hour movie that is exactly like the book. But no. Instead Hardwicke created that garbage she calls Twilight. The weird thing is that I bought the DVD the moment it came out. Not only did I buy the DVD the first day it came out, but I watched TWICE in that one day. I then watched the day after, and the day after that. I seriously watched that movie about ten times since the day I got it. I don't know why. It's like I'm waiting for the movie to get better, but each time I watch, the movie sucks, like always. I think I watch the movie for that hottie Robert Pattinson. Because he is so good-looking and makes me swoon (his face also makes me want to have his babies) I forgive Twilight for sucking ultimate balls.
2) Boys Over Flowers
There are actually four reasons why I loved this korean drama so much.
1.
2.
3.
4.
These boys are incredibly cute, it almost hurts. They are just so pretty. On Monday and Tuesday nights, I would plan my day out accordingly. First I would do homework and at 6:00 I would watch that hour of pure entertainment. I can only really say good things about Boys Over Flowers. The boys were cute and the drama was good. Of course there were a few scenes that made my face go 0.0, but other than that the drama was all sorts of awesome. There was such a hype about it too. F4 would be in the newspapers all the time and my dad told me that when he was in Korea, Monday and Tuesday nights at 9:20 pm there would be no cars on the streets and no people walking on the sidewalk. Everyone was too busy watching Boys Over Flowers. The only problem with that show is that it makes me raise my standards with a guy. I want a guy like Yoon Ji Hoo (#2). He's quiet, incredibly good looking, sweet, caring, wonderful, smart, musical, beautiful, generous, beautiful, good personality, did I mention BEAUTIFUL? I am never going to get married because I want that perfect Korean fantasy! I want the guy to love me so much that he would be okay with the friend zone just so that he could stay close. I want a guy to love me so much that he would come find me whenever I call him or when he just wants to see me. I want a guy to be smart, witty, and charming. I want a guy to be able to play guitar and piano for me. I want a guy to be athletic. I want the guy to be tall. I basically want Kim Hyun Joong (the guy who plays Yoon Ji Hoo). What? Jandi doesn't love you? Eff her! I'll love you!!! But now that Boys Over Flowers is over, my tuesday nights are super sad. Monday is still awesome because of Heroes. Yeahhhh

rainstone remix
today tiffany and i auditioned for the talent show. instead of going under tiffany and michelle, we went under trademark. haha get it? our initials are TM which means trademark, yeah we're lame. that is besides the point. there was a lovely shower of rain. although i hate being cold and wet at the same time, i love the rain. i like walking in the rain, sitting in the rain, and just listening to the rain. the smell, sound, and feel of the rain are just really relaxing.
when life is all out of hand (the way i feel when i'm sitting in ap calculus) and the rain just drizzles lightly upon my head and making my glasses all wet, i can only smile. the rain is my personal drug to make me happy. i can only get the rain during winter, but i can make the most of it.
안녕 마음아 (goodbye, my heart) - 지선 (Jisun)
this song isn't exactly the happiest song in the world, but it definitely is my favorite song as of this moment.

love story
Because I'm a weirdo and am clearly trying to avoid doing homework, I have created a drama that is the love story of my parents.
When Gangster Meets Country Girl
Song Miho was just an average girl in a small, country side town of South Korea. She had always thought that she would be forced to marry some boy in her town who would give her nothing but problems and endless amounts of babies. That is when Yoon Jaejoong comes in. He was not (well tall in the Asian standards) and very handsome. He was sent to the shigol that Miho was in for one reason: to recruit people for his gang. Jaejoong cruised into the town with his motorcycle and decided that he need to go take a piss. He went to a bush to go pee and when he was done he saw Miho. His jaw dropped in awe of the country beauty. He went to introduce himself and asked her out on a date. It was love at first sight. But being a Korean drama and all, there is always a problem. Jaejoong did not want to bring his one love into the world of gangsters. After all of the drive-bys Jaejoong has been to, he did not want Miho to know that dark side of the world. He told Miho that he didn't love her and that he was moving to America to find a better woman. Miho cried all night, and so did Jaejoong. Jaejoong eventually gave in to his selfish desires and ran to Miho. It was raining and they shared their first kiss.
the rest is history.
of course jaejoong still does his gangster acts, but denied everything. luckily someone was able to catch all of this on film.
The End.

at times like this
When I'm feeling extremely frustrated (like the way I am feeling right now) I have to listen to some peaceful music otherwise I will punch someone in the face. For today's frustrations, my stress reliever song is:
Debussy: Suite Bergamasque, L 75 - 3. Claire De Lune - Philippe Entremont
Now that I am listening to Clair de Lune I can explain why I am so frustrated (not that any of you really care, It's just nice to vent).
Today, my father bought me an iPod. Woot woot. When I got home all I wanted to do was upload all of my music and videos on to my iPod. Of course, knowing life, it didn't work. To work the iPod, I need to have windows xp sp3. Which, I didn't think that would be a big deal, just download the program right? Wrong. My stupid computer would not let me download the program. Than I thought "Duh, just update your computer" While updating, I was excited because soon my iPod would work, right? Wrong. My computer won't even update anymore. I am so pissed off. I don't really receive very nice gifts like this often and I have been wanting an iPod for a really long time. I finally get an iPod classic with 120GB and I can't even use it. Hopefully my tech savvy oppa will be able to help me. If not I just have to return the iPod, which I really don't want to do. I don't even want to sell it to anyone, I just want to keep it. I'm so frustrated and sad at the same time. My parents of course aren't helping the cause. My dad asked me if it worked, I said no, he asks questions, I attempt to explain, he gets frustrated because clearly the computer issues are all my fault, I attempt to explain it's not my fault, all he does is yell and mumble on about how I have to much crap on my computer (by the way, I have 220GB of free space on my computer), I tell him he has no idea what he's talking about, he continues on to yell. My mom doesn't really help much either. She looks at me all happy asking if I like my new iPod, I tell her that it's not really working out, her smile disappears and she starts asking why, i'm thinking what's the point of my mom asking if she can't even turn on a computer, i still attempt to explain, she doesn't understand and she yells because I'm such a bad daughter and I can't explain anything to her, I sort of yell back and say that I'm explaining she just doesn't get it, she yells at the top of her lungs that she can't wait until I go to college so that I can't burden her/disappoint her, I'm thinking why is she talking about this when it has nothing to do with my iPod, I sulk off, she yells at me saying I'm stupid for sulking, I go in to my haven (my room) and blast the music. That happened in a matter of minutes. Now that I'm reminiscing the moment, I'm angry again. I really hope that I'm not going to yell at my future daughter like that. I probably will though, I hear my mom say it all the time, it's going to rub off of me. I feel bad for my future daughter. I digress. Going back to the whole iPod situation, I'm going to be positive until my tech savvy oppa tells me that I can not put songs and videos on to my iPod. Until that moment...
