Finally!
I got my hotdog(s) after a week of a series of events where hotdogs everywhere were just calling my name and taunting me because i couldn't get any. But i finally had 2 hotdogs last night, AND! a bratwurst today at the Adams Street Fair. So now i'm happy.
Yea, doesn't take much

So a group of us went down to the fair today and just walked around. Had my bratwurst with kristin and son and the rest in the beer garden, which turned out not to be a garden at all. Kristin and i imagined lush green fields and cans of beer growing out of them. Kinda like that scene in willy wonka and the chocolate factory, but with beer instead of chocolate. Boy, were we disappointed. It was just an area with tables. :-( Not that I had any beer anyway, so i guess it didn't matter. But its just the whole principle of calling something a beer garden and not encountering anything resembling a garden at all! Meh.

myrt1530: trees with beer on it
lefroggy42: yea....
myrt1530: and fountains that flow with beer
lefroggy42: flowers with beer in it that you can pick up like a teacup
myrt1530: hehe
myrt1530: yea
myrt1530: then you can bite into the cup
lefroggy42: yea!.....it would be....made of pizza......so then it'd be pizza and beer!
myrt1530: yum

School has started. Its going ok so far. Thats as much as i'll say about that.

SH, you are such a nerd. Just read what you posted on my blog. Yes, I'm fine..thanks for asking! Hot wangs!....na na na na na na na na na na...HOT WANGS! The trouble with typing that is that you can't tell what tune I'm singing that to. Dammit. Have a great 1st day of school tomorrow. The sheer horror of my 1st day last week is coming back to me...hope yours is so much better.

Went to see Duncan Sheik tonight at Tower Records. They were having a free concert there, and they're actually really good live. Sounded clean and everything. Some of their stuff is a little too slow for me.....i think you have to be in the mood for it. But, most of it is pretty good. I guess thats all i have to say about that.

Man, socializing is tiring. Spent a good part of the day pretending i was an international student with anne, doing all kinds of move in activities. And this is only the first day!

I want a piano to practice with.

i got my haircut today, and i enjoy it alot more than the last one i got. its suppose to be a mandy moore cut....but it doesn't look so mandy moore. oh well. there can only be ONE mandy right? i took the advice of jamie, and went to lynnse #11 at the paul mitchell salon school. man..they are hard core over there. all these hip trendy people dressed in black with all different kinds of hairstyles and clothes. i felt so out of place. but it was an interesting environment, i suggest you all go check it out someday.

oh my gosh.

i just caught the last half of Newsies. The first time i saw the movie was during my pre-pubescent years. ARISE AND SEIZE THE DAY! I don't know how Disney was able to pull off getting Christian Slater and Bill Pullman to sing and dance in this movie, but i guess they have their ways. This time around, the movie wasn't as cool as i remembered. It was kinda cheesy infact, but i guess i didn't think so back then. Well actually...i did think it was cheesy back then, but i just didn't care. I mean, a bunch of teenage boys singing and dancing while delivering newspapers in new york...what could be better than that? le sigh.
SH, i accidentally erased the link you made on my page! Sorry. Put it back up, will ya? Thanks. I'm pathetic. I bow my head in shame.
blog blog blog. the whole freakin world is blogging.

so, upon going through my old quotes on my webpage(shameless plug, haha), i rediscovered the most recent one i published. i found the quote so enlightening that i shall repost it here for my blogging pleasure:

"After a time, you may find that "having" is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as "wanting." It is not logical, but it is often true.”
- Spock, "Amok Time"
stardate 3372.7

I have no idea where i found that quote from, not to mention the exact stardate. Geez i'm a nerd. Either that or i'm a nerd wannabe and just made it up myself because it seemed so appropriate at the time. but would i do such a thing? i really can't remember. however, i think i can assure you with 96% certainty that i did not make it up, it is indeed an exact stardate.
once again, spock tells us how it is. this quote is so true. we humans do illogical things. things like wanting what we don't have and having what we don't want (or need for that matter, but that is a whole other issue). so can someone tell me why this quote is so true? i know it to be true but i can't explain why. why is it that after all the trouble we go through to HAVE something we want, we still go back to the days when we were WANTing whatever we now have? someone please give me a logical explanation, i know there is one out there.

sandy ass

went surfing today down in san onofre with jamie. it was quite fun, and not to mention beautiful. maybe i'll get a board next summer so i can go more often. but then again, who knows where i'll be by then.

on to more pointless things, movies i want to see: sweet home alabama, and tuck everlasting. the former for reese witherspoon's cute smile and hair, and the latter for alexis beidel. what happened to the movies this summer? they all suck. although, i've yet to see Signs. but even that got mixed reviews. eh.

whoo hoo! szu-hua, are you sure you trust me having access to your blogger? i dunno....its going to be hard to behave myself. muhahahahahaha!
and ends just as quick
and so it begins.......
went to a bbq tonight with my international posse, held by one of anne's friends. it was quite interesting. i felt so left out, being not so recently international. i guess i would've been one back in the first grade, but eh, doesn't count. international students are so interesting. most of them have been to several countries, even states...and here i am, still in oc and sd. thus, i am beginning another foundation, "Send SH to a land far far away." The paragliding foundation still exists, but any contributions to this foundation will also be gladly accepted. Sorry, contributions will probably not be tax deductable, but i'll make you some lemon bars to make up for it. :-)mmmmm.....lemon bars.....

SH wants to go paragliding but does not have $150. However, she is starting a "Send SH Paragliding" foundation. Please send all donations this way. Thank you.

hm......so somehow i got access to jamie's blog.....how did that happen?

just got home from son's place after playing a wicked game of scrabble. my first word? virulent. and since i used all my tiles, i got 50 extra pts. i am the scrabble whore!!!! speaking of which, whore was the second word i played....gooooooo me!
trip to sushi deli was big success, found parking in spite of street scene, and didn't have to wait long! yay!
sh to jme, sh to jme. are you in the blogger world yet? let me know when you are. i'll tell all my readers (which, including you would be.......1) to go to yours.


went to Belly Up tonight. Interesting mix of bands, but favorite was #2...think they were called Big Feet. These cute boys had me smitten. And they looked like they were having fun too. Sang well, played well, looked hot(!)
Man...i wanna rock too.
Too bad I only know how to play jewel and other non-rockable songs. Stupid stupid.
