w00t. I'm done messing with my LJ layout. For now anyhow. I need to figure out how to smoosh everything to the right side of the screen. But I'm content with the way it is for the time being.

anywAyz. I am done with xanga. I loved having it for the 500+ days that I've been using it..  xP  I'm not really sure why I'm switching over. Xanga feels a bit crowded now. And I felt like so many people were reading my entries - it made me kinda uncomfortable. It was fun while it lasted. [*sigh* I bet I'll be updating this again by next week. So my dramatic farewell will have been in vain.]

To my OneStop girls: Any of you have LJ's? If not, I guess I shall continue logging in to xanga to check y'all's entries.  =)  Man... I feel like a newbie and a loser on LJ though. I have a grand total of ... two people on my friends list. ><;

Adiosos.

I messed around with LJ but eh... I hate starting over from scratch. I don't like change. Everything is so nice and familiar and comfortable until it changes. Bah. anywAyz. I hope to get LJ up and running by the end of this month. Bah.

I took my SAT II's yesterday. I don't feel good [at all] about them. *sigh* But I figure there's no use stressing about it for the next three weeks. It's not like I can change my score. So boooo. I will not think about it. I will not think about it. I will not think about it. But really, I think I screwed up my Writing. And my Math. And Writing. Oh crap. I will not think about it. I will not think...

Erm. I decided I hate clubs. I've been to one and it wasn't so great. *shrug* I had a headache from the loud music and the damn flashing lights so I just sat in a corner and watched people "dancing." Ick. It was so scandalous. I realize I'm a prude and all, but goodness gracious. Have you no morals! Enough about my club un-experience.

I slept over at Eunice's. I found it interesting that my mother let me go. Chris and I left Eunice's house at 1:00 pm or so and went to Ktown. =) I dragged her to Rodeo Galleria and made her wait while I browsed through Korean magazines [I didn't buy any. I love god, but six pages of wonderful god-ness is not worht $7]. Then we had boba. [Passionfruit~!] On our way out we saw this suhl lung tahng restaurant and Chris decided she wanted some. So we went in. And we had a long "discussion" about tips.

OK. First of all, I'm not an overly demanding or ungrateful customer. I walked in there planning to pay a bit more tip than necessary since we were only going to order one dish between us. On to my point of view on tips: tips are a gratuity, meaning I'll leave a tip if I feel the service warrants one. Actually, I have never not left tip before. If the service is excellent, I'll leave a little extra; if the service isn't horrible, I'll leave 10-15%. Our waitress [a 40-something Korean ahjumma] sucked. She gave us major attitude about ordering only one dish. She threw [well, fine. she dropped] our water cups and our bowls onto the table. Plus. She mooh shee hae - ed us for being kids. Really. Two pairs of older couples walked in and ordered after we had. All four people received their food before we did. I mean, I understand if the dishes were all different. This was a suhl lung tahng jip; everything orders the same thing. So I was annoyed. And so I mentioned to Chris that we wouldn't leave tip. Bad move on my part. I should've just... not left tip. But being the idiot that I am, I brought it up before we left. I didn't the the ahjumma deserved tip. The service was horrible, she gave us attitude, and the food tasted like joh mih ryo. [Why do Korean restaurants use so much of this f-ing artificial flavoring these days? Gah.] Oh. And the kkak dooh geeh was sweet. Kimchi is not supposed to be sweet. anywAyz. Chris agreed that the service sucked and that the lady didn't deserve a tip. So with the understanding that we wouldn't leave tip, I paid for the meal. Then Chris left tip. *sigh* Really. I don't think I was being overly critical or rude or anything. It was very frustrating trying to get Chris to understand my point of view. It didn't work, by the way. Bah.

anywAyz. I went out with my dad an hour ago because he wanted suhl lung tahng too. We went to Han Bahl, which is an awesome suhl lung tahng jip. Yummy food. I didn't eat any because I had already eaten, but the next time Chris wants to have suhl lung tahng, that's where we're going. I couldn't remember where it was located this afternoon. ><;

I think I have a lot of Bio homework, which I do not feel like doing. I'll turn it all in late on Tuesday, I guess.  ^^

I am exuberantly happy and giddy. I've been feeling this way or these past three days and for no reason. *shrug* Life is fun. JRock is fun. Going to school and making fun of my friends is fun. Coming home and forum-ing is fun. Little things like people adding the "for eunice" after a Gackt picture thread [thanks Tae!] make me feel loved.

I am just giddy and "high on life," as the people during the Beat generation liked to call it.  xP [See, Nancy? I listen to you and absorb some of what you say... pukekeke]


Long and pointless rant coming up. Please proceed to the bottom of the post...

\\But. I guess my happiness could just be masking the anxiety I feel about the upcoming week, semester, and year. I have SAT II's this Saturday and I am super worried. Boooo.

Hmm. What else. School sucks. My classes are hard. I thought senior year was supposed to be a kick-back year. Second semester better be worth all the stress I am going through right now. I have to go find out my ranking, but I am deathly afraid of finding out. What if it turns out that the last four years of my life have resulted in failure? [In the form of a low ranking of course...] *sigh*

And college apps. I decided not to do Early Action for Yale. Well. It was more like I can't apply early. But screw it. I wasn't that confident about my app anyway. This just gives me more time to work on my essays. [Speaking of which, I must get started.] I went to the Yale informational meeting today. The guy was funny and nice and made me want to go to Yale even more. Darn him.//

I have these terrible mood swings. Poor Nancy who has to put up with me. I don't know... I'm super happy, but all of a sudden I feel drained and stressed and really really sad. *sigh* I like JRock because it keeps me distracted. But really. My fluctuations in mood are driving me crazy. I feel very mentally unstable... bah.

But screw it all! I am determined to be happy, so happy I shall be.  =)  That is all. Have a nice day.

Oh yes. Where the heck are you, Tae? You need to move into my time zone or something. Bah. Hawaii... that's three hours too slow! I neeeed to glomp ya right now. For many things, actually. So hurry and get your butt online.

Oh! And Lupe. I didn't reply to your mass email, but I do have a comment: get rid of Eunice?! I am outraged. You can marry Hoyoung over my dead body. So there.  xP And oof! Your name is so lovely and long! Mine is boring and only three er... names? First, middle, and last.

I'm hyper right now. Keke. I have Gackt's [Vanilla] live performance playing on repeat right now.  =)  I'm just glad school friends haven't seen the video.  xP

Yes! This is why I play tennis. I finally broke through my slump. Yes! Finally. I've been playing awfully and feeling shitty during practices. But no longer! I can hit balls again. I played wonderfully today, thankyouverymuch. I figured out what I've been doing wrong with my forehand and fixed it. I've been so nervous about over-hitting that I never completed my swing; I took a wild swing and then popped it out. I wish we had practice tomorrow because I want to work on my strokes again. Ah well. I'll practice on Sunday. I need to work on my volleys and serves. I know I can serve fine, but I haven't had a chance to really work on it so far. So I've settled for this wimpy little tap for now. Bah. anywAyz. I love hitting the ball over the net - watching it whiz over ... makes me feel good.

I'm in a wonderful mood. I called Ken [w00t!] and cancelled my tutoring for today. Hmm. First time [in my entire life, really] writing that I called a guy. But he's my tutor. Darn it! LOL. Cutest white guy ever. Super sweet and amusing too. *sigh* Rescheduled it to Sunday. =) More time for me to study tonight.

I survived October 1! I managed to finish all my essays without pulling an all-nighter. I slept at four, but at least I got three hours of sleep after that. I've never pulled an all-nighter before. I'm afraid. I think I'll go crazy with hyperness in the morning. Or just act dead. I haven't figured out which yet.

I think I hate the HGM. LOL. After successfully living through October 1, I have to sleep at four again today. I have: Bio test, Spanish hwk, Spanish quiz, Stat test, Econ hwk, and English essay. Booo. And darn. Hmm. Drat! Ooh. That's fun to say. Drat!

I hope to live to see the weekend. During which I'll most likely crash and collapse from exhaustion. Baaah. Must stop procrastinating and get my lazy butt moving.

I feel as though I love everyone. Quite a rare moment for me. Keke.
