Start of the Fall Semester

Was yesterday. Which I totally lost track of, even though I’ve been meaning to pick a class for the whole summer now. I’m always in the running for the Best Procrastinator title. Anyhows, I didn’t figure out that the semester started yesterday until today, whereupon I signed up for 3 classes. [...]

Yesterday I watched the season finale of So You Think You Can Dance? (don’t click on the link if you don’t want a spoiler). It was a great show, I’m sad it’s over. This season, I would’ve been pretty much okay with any of the final four winning it all, so I didn’t [...]

Consumed, July

So I’m late again this month. Well, what can I say. But in my defense, I sorta thought I had nothing much to say this month cos I didn’t see much or read much in July. But I think that was really more the end of July, or something. I really [...]

Thoughts

If you have a salad for lunch with no dressing, but with meat and cheese and bacon, is that still healthy? :p
Dear lady who was peeing when I got into the restroom:
I didn’t hear you wash your hands.

The judges on Project Runway are craaaaazy. I mean, they thought Vincent’s dress was better than Robert’s??? [...]

Citizen Thai & the Monkey

I realize that it’s been a while since I wrote a post wherein I pretend like I’m some kind of gourmand and food reviewer, when really, it’s more just that I’m a glutton. I don’t know, it’s a mood thing. But anyway! I’m rectifying that now.
On Saturday we went to Citizen Thai [...]

Language Barrier

Now and then I go to Oakland Chinatown and buy my parents some phone cards cos they give good rates for Taiwan. Also, I think the dude semi-recognizes me cos when I go in I say, “phone card please,” and he says “the fish ones right?” So it all works out.
The last one [...]

Every Dog Has Its Day

Today is Sys Admin Appreciation Day. Am not kidding! There’s a website about it ∴ it’s a real “day”! I think everyone should get the day off, really, especially since it falls on a Friday.

Random Spam and whatnot

Lately I’ve been getting like a lot of spam everyday on my work email account, like I’ll have 5 real messages and 20 spam. It’s crazy madness! Everyday I get stuff like “sissy frivolously” or “Softwares Deploy.” Today I got spammed by Jack (unfortunately not Bauer) with the subject line “un-American Heart [...]

Hot, and not in a good way

Today was another really hot day here. Another as in it’s not the first hot day this year. Hot as in >90°F (or ~32°C) and humid. Which I know, I know, isn’t as bad as it could be, but like I’m always saying, this area just isn’t prepared for hot weather. [...]

“It’s ‘Make it Work’, and this isn’t working.”

The challenge this week was to design the evening gown dress for Miss USA to wear at the Miss Universe pageant (hence “Fit for a Queen” ). Miss USA came on to tell them what she was looking for, and she was v. specific. Then they sketched out ideas and she picked the [...]
