it's you 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Another song recommendation. XP This time it's a soft piano accompanied song.光良 - éƒ½æ˜¯ä½ The whole song revolves around the idea about thinking about a loved one and seeing her in everything you touch. Great lyrics and wonderful melody. It's not that hard to remember the tune, so it's easy to memorize. =]
sister, have you fallen asleep? 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I don't have a sister
, and I never had a person that acted as my sister. But there's a Chinese song that, suprisingly, talks about the relationship about two sisters. I haven't come across a lot of good songs that doesn't talk about love (meaning a romantic relationship). This one was soft, a repeating melody, and a lovely voice. The lyrics are great as well.Song Title: å§ , ä½ ç¡äº†å—Ž (Sister, Are You Asleep?)There was also a story that I read on the Internet that was based on the song. Great story, might I add.

off to university... fair 1970-01-01 00:59:59 The Ontario Universities' Fair starts today, and I'm going tomorrow. I wonder how is it there? One of my classmates went and they said there was a lot of information. Great, going to be suffocated with info about stuff that matters in two years. Oh well.I'm actually not interested in that many universities. I don't want one that is too far, and I want one that is welll-known in the field that I'm going into, accounting.Okay, now I'm running out of things to say... >< So I'll end here, and post again tomorrow about my trip to the university fair, ok? Good night!
Another long weekend... 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Is it just me, or is this semester filled with long weekends? It's only the second month into the school year, and we already had at least three long weekends. It's two more weeks until my birthday, and I'm not as excited as I thought I would be. Usually by now, I'll be jumping up and down, and counting down by minutes. I guess I got mature, huh? Well, I should be.So I'm planning to go sing karaoke this Saturday. Let's hope that we can have a room and not like last time. It was ok last time, but the microphones were definitely not good.Today I decided to sit at the atrium alone for a while. I used to critize people for their insensitivity, but I learned today that it's probably me who isn't sensitive enough. I did so many wrong things today it's not funny. Well, I guess some time alone would be good, to get my head straight. I just hope my friends didn't notice and will still be there for me. 50/50 chance.So I guess that's about it. School's about to end, and I
closest distance 1970-01-01 00:59:59 There are times when you are surrounded by people. yet there's no one within your grasp. They smile at you, and look at you, but it's as if there are just looking past you. There's something that is isolating you from others. You feel you're the only one in the world, the only one who's alone. So what can you do? Try to break the barrier? You may end up hurting yourself. Should you take that risk? To answer that question, you would probably have to answer this first: Is there something beyond that barrier dear enough for you to take that chance?There are people who can live perfectly well with their barrier, but when do you know if you're in a barrier or not? The wall is invisble, after all. Read more:distance
almost-weekend update 1970-01-01 00:59:59 It's almost the weekend, and I thought I should update a little before going into the weekend.First things first, I've decided to post weekly instead of what I've been doing over the several weeks, which was daily. There's just too much to do for me to type everyday. Hope this is alright. But I promise, if there's anything really special, I'll post right away.So happy things first, I got my accounting test/quiz back, and I'm about to jump through the roof. Guess what I got? 100! I'm so happy. I was so sure I did something wrong somewhere. I can't believe I can still get a perfect score in Grade 11.Not a bad week, except I got a cold a few days back, and now I can't speak. That wouldn't matter though, since all I have tomorrow are tests (well, Economics and Functions & Relations)Better get back to work now. XP
sleepless night 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I haven't had one of these for a while, but it seems that I'm in for one of those nights again. Yes, unable to sleep. My eyes are tired and they want to rest, but I just can't fall asleep. How sad. T.T And that is why I'm listening to Jay Chow and typing this short post at almost 4 in the morning... Read more:sleepless
official day of school 1970-01-01 00:59:59 At last, it is the official first day of my Grade 11 school year. Very busy day, if you ask me. There's already homework on the first day, and I'm currently finishing my homework while writing this post.This year's schedule is Functions and Relations, Canadian Law, Economics, and Accounting. Busy semester, no?Good luck to Orichi-chan though, with three sciences. =]
the new school year 1970-01-01 00:59:59 In a blink of an eye, summer is almost over. Well, it's not here anymore if you consider hat it ends when school starts. For me, I always thought summer ended at the middle of September, when you needed to put on a coat and it's below 18 degrees. It seems that summer came too soon this year. I didn't even want to get out of bed today when I heard from my dad that it's 13 degrees outside!So the first week of school have passed, and already I have homework in three of my classes. Suprisingly, no homework from Accounting. Guess this is what it means by being a Grade 11 student.P.S. Might be getting a new layout for my blog. Maybe a more autumn-themed one.
karaoke, official school day 1970-01-01 00:59:59 So how did I spend the first weekend of the school year? I went to sing karaoke
with some friends. It was fun, considering that I got back home at around 8:45. Then I realize that I still had my math journal to do and my economics notes to print out. Remind me to check that I've done everything before going out til so late.So it's the first "official" day of school for everybody. Basically, I got used to Grade 11 life. A lot more homework is probably the only complaint. It's the first time I actually had to use more than 1 hour of my evening to do my homework (of course this isn't counting the little time after lunch).Well, it's late, so I better get to sleep. Hope that I will have time tomorrow to type up an entry. Maybe not, since tomorrow is also the first day my orchestra rehearsals. =]
a new start for life 1970-01-01 00:59:59 So as you can see, I have a new layout for my blog. It's not the one that I intented to use, but I couldn't get the pther one to work, so I guess until I have time to work on the other one, this will have to do. It's not a bad layout, I think I can live with it for quite a while. =]So back to school. Just finished a small project for law, and is now struggling to keep up with my math homework. It's not hard or anything, but it's just there's so much of it... >< Oh well, I guess I'll be okay once I get used to it.
revisiting an old hobby 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I think as I grew older, my courage grew as well. For example, I wouldn't be caught dead singing in front of an audience, in Chinese. Now I will, and I did. Impulsively, I signed up to sing in a fundraiser for the school. The first thought that I had was, why the heck did I do that? It may have something to do with me turning 16 next week, but I don't think that's all of it. Now, about the song that I'm singing. It's called é‡è¦‹ (Yu Jian) by å«ç‡•å§¿. It's a slow piano accompanied piece, so I got my good friend Jula-chan to play the piano. She is so good, and it's amazing how she can change stuff to the music to make it better. I'm so glad I asked her to play it. I'll ask her again next time (if I ever sing in public again, that is) XP So that's basically what's been going on with me for these past few days.By the way, I really don't like our principal now. It takes so long to geet permission from him. I will totally blame him if we can't do the thing tha
sideblog, update of weekend events 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Since I can't think of a place to put my stories, I've decided to start a small blog just for them. I haven't been able to log onto FictionPress.com for the past few days, and it's driving me crazy. The blog doesn't have much in it yet, it only has one post and it's the character's appearance. I'll put in the link when I feel it's ready to be seen.Other than that, there's not much happening. Wait, I'm having my party today. I'm having it at 4, though, because of over half of the people can't make it at the original time. So that's about it. Then there are homework which I really don't want to do, but have to because they are group projects. I can only porcastinate on my own stuff, because I'm only letting down myself. XP Read more:events
loud music calms your soul 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Ever had those times that you just want to strangle someone? Whether it is getting into a fight with your parents, or you're having a stupid fight with your friends, there are bound to be times when you are frustrated. My way of dealing with it is listening to loud music. The music will loud drum beats and fast tempo especially works well. But if you're in a house like me where parents are the number-one barrier to maxing your volume. Headphones are a great thing. It also serves as an excuse you can tell them when they complain that you aren't answering them. It really gets on their nerves. Hey, them taking care of you doesn't mean that you have to listening to them all the time. ^^So next time you get into a situation like that, try this. It works most of the time, at least for me.
tests, projects, and new stories 1970-01-01 00:59:59 It's the first week back from the November Break, and already I have two tests
, two presentation, and two (well, one's about to be assigned) ISUs. The presentations are over, so that's a relief. The two tests, Math and Economics, are on Friday, and I hope that I don't fail miserably. XP The Law ISU and Economics ISU are started, just far, far away from finish. (Actually, the Law ISU isn't really assigned yet ^^)As for the stories, I have posted the short prologue of Rielian War Chronicles, and I hope to post the beginning of the new story (if I ever think of a name for it).
hectic life 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Yes, it's been hectic forever, but it has been the most hectic these days. Under the bombarding of summative projects and tests, it has been really hard trying to find time to update. This must be longest time that I haven't updated. T.TSo tomorrow is the Mentor Day's project for Accounting, and I just realize that I lost my guideline. Yes, I know, I'm so smart. So now I'm guessing everything that I need and believe me, it's not working. Let's hope that it will work out. (It better work out, it's worth 5% of my total accounting average). So on top of that are also my two ISUs from Law and Economics. The Law one I haven't started yet, and the economics one is slowly getting done. Thank god that our teacher allowed us to work in partners. ^^ Well, I'm off to school at 7:30 tomorrow to pick up some stuff. It was just great that on the day that I'm away, I'm missing a major review in Math, a movie in Law, and a research period in Economics.One good thing about this
hopes diminish? 1970-01-01 00:59:59 "You lift your head to watch the rainbow.Before you can admire it, the amazing light disappears.When your dream reaches its peak, is begins to dissolve.And you fall fall back to reality.There are no roses on top of the rainbow,Future is like an unsteady bridge,leading to the unknown.Don't know if it will lead to heaven or hell."Wow, I guess that would be how I feel now, huh? I just realized, being left behind and watching others walk farther and farther away, hurts a lot.Just a thought.
finding a job 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I need a job.After seeing my teacher talked about the music trip next year, I realize that the only way I can go is to earn the money I have. Luckily, if I start working now, I should be able to earn enough money to go (taking in account that my parents will be paying half). I've tried at the mall twice, and both times ended miserably. I have given up on the mall, and to the supermarkets. I heard from my friend that many stores are hiring. I'm crossing my fingers that I can get a job soon, so I can start earning money soon.
another week gone 1970-01-01 00:59:59 It's the end of the November Break, and I suddenly realized that I have a lot of stuff to do. There's the performance task for Math, the information I have to take notes on for Economics, the power point presentation in Accounting, the Law ISU that the teacher was suppose to give to us for the break (but forgot), and finally the story that I just thought up today. It's rare that I actually got the beginning of the story figured out before the end, so I better write it down first before I forget.These are times that I hope that there are 48 hours in a day. ^^ Oh well, back to work!
beginning of november break 1970-01-01 00:59:59 In a blink of an eye, it's November again. So November Break is here again! That's great news to me, because I've been so stressed lately, both in school and at home. I'm getting really tense and I think the one week off from school will definitely do me some good.If anyone is concerned about my writing, it would probably be picked up and restarted this week, since I have time. Thank god that FictionPress.com updated their site. I was wondering if the site was abandoned. It turns out that they were working on a huge change for the site, and I have to admit, it's a lot better than before. Now if they can have a toplist of all the genres, that would be perfect...
racist joke 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Note of warning, the below joke was not made by me. I heard it from another person and do not feel this way. It is only meant as a small laugh and hopefully it will bring some awareness about racism to people.Again, I do NOT feel this way about this race.Highlight to read:A person sees a group of whites standing together, and thinks of snow. Then he sees a group of blacks, and think of a mudslide. When he sees a group of Chinese, he thinks of a big discount sale.So what do you think? Personally, I think it's discriminating, but you can't help laughing at the stupidity of the person in the joke.
software for a computer 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Two more years, and I will be having a brand new laptop computer! That would be, if I get into a university. Unless I save enough money and buy it myself...So anyways, I've decided to compose a list of things that I'll install on the computer now, since I have nothing to do. I consider these a necessity for my computer right now, too.Picasa (Photo Organizer)MSN Messenger (IM)Firefox (Internet Browser)Winamp (Music PlayerVLC Media Player (Video Player)CCleaner (Virus Scanner/Cleaner)Skype (Call Client)There would probably be more software out in the next two years that I would want, but so far that's the list. Okay, since I've done the list of softwares, I might as well write up the list of tihngs that I think are required for me (digitally, at least)CellphoneNotebook ComputerDigital CameraMP3 PlayerFlashDriveLooking at these lists, I think I better start looking for a job. Wish me luck! XP
first solo performance 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Tonight was, as Jula-chan had said, my first performance. I can't really say it's a disaster, but it was definitely not as successful as I thought it was going to be. First of all, I couldn't hear the piano, so I think I was out of tune almost throughout the whole song. Other than that, it wasn't that bad. (Can you hear my sarcasm?) So that was that. Although I was only there for about an hour, it was a fun event. I wish I could've stayed longer, but I had homework and projects and that stuff. Oh well, maybe there will be one next year that I can actually stay for the whole time. I never knew we had so many talented singers in my school. I'm so slow! XP Oh well, good job for everyone who played/sang!
low on spirit 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Somehow, after all the excitement that have been going on for the past few days, I'm feeling exceptionally low. I find myself not caring about anything. Maybe it's lack of sleep, but I feel like there's no one around me. I'm still alone, no matter where I am. I know I can't expect my friends to be there all the time.There's something far away that I can't seem to reach. Everything is so unreachable. Friends, family, marks, everything. Maybe it'll be better after this month, I don't know. All I know is, I have a law test and an accounting project for tomorrow, and I have no energy to do them. I know I'll screw it up if I do it now, so I might as well not.Thank you for finishing the presentation script, CherryxGarcia! Read more:spirit
controlling someone's life 1970-01-01 00:59:59 The greatest thing about writing a story is the feeling that you have thinking you can control another person's life. You get to decide what they encounter in life, and in some ways, control their emotions. Lately, I've been stressed and overwhelmed with work. I would say that my characters in my story suffers the most out of this, since I'm giving her the most miserable things in life.Call me a torturer, but at least I'm not hurting anyone in the real world. ^^
close to christmas, but still no job 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I think it's time that I give up looking for a job. I've looked at the mall twice, and the supermarket, but still no luck. I can't believe how hard it is to find a job. I consider myself a relatively motivated worker. I won't slack off on my job and I can do well. I guess it's really luck and timing.With that said, there's also a high chance that I can't go on the graduation trip next year (if there's going to be one). T.T
business club event 1970-01-01 00:59:59 So after many weeks of preparations and hard work, the Winter Cafe is finally opening. All of us put a lot into this event
, and we hope that it will be successful. I'll talk about it more tomorrow, when we open for the first day.Good night!
success in club, resting for the break 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I promised that I will talk more about the club, so here it is. Basically, it was huge success based on the amount of revenue that we have gained. It was fun, and a lot of hard-work. Hopefully now that this is done, we can all relax before the next event (Valentine's Day).The break officially starts on Monday, but as many people can see, may have taken this day off as well. Here I wish everyone a Merry Christmas! And for the ones that doesn't celebrate Christmas, Happy Winter Holiday!
Christmas 2006 1970-01-01 00:59:59 In a blink of an eye, it's the end of the year. Yesterday, we had a party with some of my mom's old friends (and mine). We all had a great time, probably because I knew all of them well over 5 years. One of them my mom knew since she was at school, so I knew her kids when I was born, which means I know them for 16 years! I always have a good time with them. Although sometimes they mention things that I can't discuss, but most of the time they involve me in their conversation (more than before).Next week is another party, this time it's with my neighbours. I know know how that's going to turn out, but judging from the last experience, it probably will be good, but not as good as the one with my mom's friends.Merry Christmas
, and Happy Holidays to everyone that doesn't celebrate Christmas!
New Year 2007 1970-01-01 00:59:59 A new year officially started, and frankly, I have no big plans. Well, if you consider getting good grades and being happy good plans, then I have nothing to say.After looking at all the university things that I got from the university fair, I decided that I had better work really really hard to get the marks that I want. Not to say that I'm not working hard now, but I think I can do better.Supposedly, I had a lot of things that I wanted to get done this holiday, which includes my Law ISU, organizing my notes for my exam study, and at least getting through half of my new story. In a nutshell, I have done none of the above. I know I'm procrastinating, but I'm pretty sure that I'll get through by the end of the week. Wish me luck! ^^ Read more:New Year
