I feel like a dying horse - January 5th, 2009

1 hour of sleep (followed by naps in Statistics, Psychology and Spanish) and no lunch (memorized a poem during lunch) — then toploops 9:07 and 9:00, then circuit workout, then dinner, and now off to tutoring till 9pm.

I’m going to collapse when I get home, and I haven’t started studying for my FBLA competition in Network Databases.

Question: OpenPandora vs. Apple iTouch - January 4th, 2009

At this point, I’m seriously weighing this. If I decide to go with the OpenPandora, I lose out on style in exchange for raw power. I also win on nonconformity. But do I need the raw power? And do I want to be a nonconformist? I mean, if I’m getting the iTouch for cheap, why not just get it for cheap and be done with it…

LOL I’m such a creeper - January 4th, 2009

So some random asian girl from Illinois contacted me regarding the UI Business Honors program cause I blogged about that and she found it on google. I threw her a response…and then looked her name up on google and found her college profile.

Seriously, people have to start taking better care of their private information. I mean you could see where she probably applied, what her SAT scores were, and that she is an editor-in-chief for her school newspaper (hey that’s pretty cool haha). But really…

Yeah you can tell I’m taking every available option to NOT do homework due tomorrow.

It’s over. - January 4th, 2009

Winter break, oh it’s over. The joyous days of hot cocoa and books galore…I’m sad. Wah.

Sunday Sermon in a Nutshell - January 4th, 2009

Galatians 3:23:

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor freeman, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Joel 2:28-29 (NIV)

28 “And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.

29 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.

Sexist? Haha, get out.

Sight for the Millions - January 3rd, 2009

This water-based eyeglasses solution is so smart and benefits so many. Awesome stuff.

Today was pretty decent. After 10am practice (he pushed it an hour later, lucky for sleepy me), I ate lunch and spent the afternoon reading news and books. After dinner, watched a movie with my family and read some more while finishing a little homework (gave up on math, it’s impossible).

Clocking out early because I’m tired.

Seriously one of the funniest facebook apps - January 3rd, 2009

I was roflmfao when I saw this facebook app. It was posted on news.yc and I was just like woooooow. Maybe it’ll work in like…geek circles. Too bad I didn’t apply to MIT or anything like that hahahaha. This would be perfect. I should give this site to Ashu (haha).

2059 - January 2nd, 2009

2059. Penpal says on January 2, 2059, we will see whose journal is still around. I doubt this blog will be here in 50 years, but let’s see. Actually, she’s probably right, I’ll probably have my journal and she probably won’t, but that’s because I’m obsessive compulsive and will download a backup of this blog and upload 20 copies or so to random places on the internet in an effort to preserve my life’s archives.

Ho hum.

True Beauty - January 2nd, 2009

“Minimalism is not a style, it is an attitude, a way of being. It’s a fundamental reaction against noise, visual noise, disorder, vulgarity. Minimalism is the pursuit of the essence of things, not the appearance. ” — Claudio Silvestrin
