White Reflections

I’ve been so busy as of late that I completely forgot about the TVXQ lawsuit, even though I sleep/sit next to my shiny Mirotic poster almost every night (lol when I actually sleep, that is). BUT! TVXQ HWAITING! I’m so happy they won! So happy that they’ll be in Kouhaku again this year! So happy that they’ll stay as a group of 5. <33

Now I wish I completely planned things out. I don't know how likely it will be for my cousin to come over, and 119a isn't so much of a project class, which would mean that, had I actually bought plane tickets in the summer, I could go to Japan. ;_; *hates self*

They're having a bunch of fan meets mid January too! T_T

I've been so out of touch with everything lately. I've probably been getting, on average, 2-3 hours of sleep every night. So much work. Every thing's due one right after the other. It's so annoying. ;_; I bombed my last physics quiz too~~ Not to mention my epically failed kanji quiz. -.-

And I had to take an extension on 119... though pretty much everyone did.

It was Halloween yesterday. It's only 1:19 AM right now... but it was 1:40 something AM before. The extra hour is kind of awesome and much needed, but I can't believe I just wasted an hour being unproductive and going through some 700 LJ posts.

It's midterms week. I have 2. I haven't taken any. Ugh.

I pulled practically 2 all-nighters to get my simulation program to work properly. My Abel file was mostly done on Monday night. Ridiculous. I feel like an idiot.

Last week~ I saw Bill Nye the science guy. LOL. I think I've only seen maybe one episode of that thing. Tony got me an autograph. Yay I also wasted some 3 odd hours that Friday night Photoshopping different Tony's face onto umm... I don't know that guy's name, but he's one of the members of Versailles (yeah, that visual kei band). It actually worked out really nicely. Pretty Tony :3. People were kind of creeped out though.

That was kind of fun. I exchanged $20 for 10 $2 bills. They were crisp too!

I also... did this funky falling off thing... Uhh... so Jennifer was sitting on a chair and I was sitting on the I don't know what you call it. But she got up and the chair flipped over, so I landed on my arse. x3 It hurt a lot at the time. ;_; We then spent the rest of the night singing random Broadway songs. Chinese opera? Haha.

Once we find some more time, I think we're going to an archery range.

News? There are a few visual kei bands performing, huh? And Domo-kun's creator is going to be at the Northridge Borders this Thursday! I used to go practically every weekend, but I haven't gone in 3 years. D: There's this tiny Japanese restaurant there that has some pretty awesome/cheap dishes. And it's legit too. Japanese restaurant run by Japanese people! o__o

I also went with Jennifer and Tony to Little Tokyo last weekend. I bought some milk tea and umm... another alpha gel pencil, because it was only $8 at the market (I mean, it costs a bit more than $6 in Japan, so, IMO, it's worth it... even though I still have a few unopened ones lol...) I also bought one of those funky erasable highlighters. Overpriced, but cool. xD

Oh and Marie Callendars was having their annual pie sale, so I got my dad to buy kahlua cream cheese, pecan, and some chocolate pie for $7 a piece + tin. There's still some left. I wonder if it's still edible.

As for Halloween? I wore my maid/cafe costume to Lollicup. Everyone there was from Caltech, but I think I got some interesting looks on the way (well, Doris had a scary clown outfit on and I had cat ears and a tail - the ones I bought work very nicely once the ears are sewn a bit yep :3 - thanks Jennifer!). This other person also randomly took a picture of me when I was going to watch the Dabney pumpkin drop. It was a bit strange.

Also, turns out there are 22 applicants for the internship this year. Normally, there are fewer applicants than spots available. This year, there's a 1/3 chance of getting in. Not cool. ;_; I really really really want to go though! I need to work on a resume and ask for a rec from Glen. Mmm...

Jaejoong's sister got married? Omedetou!

I woke up at 4 PM today, 'cause I basically hadn't slept for the last 2 nights. 16 hours of sleep, and a Chipotle/Halloween costume store run prior were awesome though!

Lang Lang's performing next week. I wish I could go.

One of the JPL founders died this week. He was Chinese. It was a pity that he was forced to leave the US because of anti-communist sentiment... It was unfair.

As for animanga fandom,

I watched the first 2 episodes of Kobato 2 weeks ago. I haven't had time for any more. Hana realized her feelings! But I wonder what's going to happen. I mean, I know they're going to end up together, but yeah... the whole mortal with demon who has a much longer lifespan thing is a big problem, huh? Lol. Sakura's confession to Naruto was kind of lame. D: But I'm happy I get to see more Byakuya action in Bleach. Maybe Ulquiorra will rise from the dead and help Ichigo. ;_; But maybe I'm asking for too much. I mean, you still have Ishida and Orihime. Then you have Yuuki Cross. Umm... Yeah. Kaname Kuran is pretty. x3 I'd prefer him to what's his face hunter dude. >_< *lapse of memory*

‘scuse the semi-incoherent entry.

Happy late Halloween.

Oh yes, and Sailor Moon’s almost 20th anniversary is coming up. I feel old. I can’t believe I feel old.
