I feel like shit.
Just…I don’t feel like doing anything.
Even reading books or reading fanfiction or fangirling or watching anime or doing homework.
I’m not even sure why, either.
Sleep? Maybe. I have work at 12 though.

UC BERKELEY
Caltech
Cornell ILR
UCLA
UCI
NYU Stern
eeeek I’m so happy I got into Berkeley. At this point it’s 85% sure that I’m going, but I’m going to wait on the Ivys to come out on Tuesday and Stanford on Wednesday and make my choice from there.
Cal gave me the Regent and Chancellor’s Scholarship, which means I get guaranteed housing for all 8 of my semesters, priority consideration for summer interns, a faculty advisor for school and career counseling, and $1000 at least for the first year. Also if I go I’m pretty sure I can pay in-state the first year because dad pays California taxes. Awesome.
Going to visit Cal the last day of Spring Break into the Monday we get back. Also going to the new student orientation in NYC Sunday, April 5th.
Wow everything seems kind of like a dream. Makes me really want to finish these two scholarships (which I haven’t even started yet) that I need to hand in to Mr. Kowalczyk by tomorrow if I want everything submitted on time.
500 word autobiography and a 250 word scholarship essay.
Psychology.
Spanish (two nights’ worth).
Econ.
Whitten.
Italian.
Whatever homework isn’t important right now; I should concentrate on finishing those scholarships. Although I do need to study for psych because my grade is complete fail in that class right now. Spanish I could care less about but I feel like I might not get an A this MP if I slack off too much. Screw Whitten. Econ is silly. I didn’t even bring home Italian.
Ohhhhhhh my gadddddddddddddddddddd yay.
International Dinner was amazing. Mom’s chicken parm was SO good. Sat between Cathay and Horace and across from Niti (aka god with her empty lighter) and Dave. Gregg sat nearby. Greg was MIA because of the sick. =(
Cathay and co.’s telenovella was SO LOLOLOLOLOL. Connie in a dress and wig was the funniest thing since ever. Spanish was a little bit of fail but the sombreros and sunglasses were awesome. Chinese was fail. Latin was slightly lol but paled in comparison to Italian. I’m happy IHS regained some of its pride after last year’s fail. xDDDD Pinocchio. Yes. I used ‘fail’ like twenty times in this paragraph.
Okay. Now to work.
My sleep hours are dying.
Mood: Glee.

Good
I finished my Pygmalion paper at around 12:30, which was good timing for me. Went straight to sleep after that and slept like a log for six hours.
Woke up ridiculously tired this morning. However, overall I had a very satisfying day; Horace, Dave and I (and Kathy, to some extent) made jokes in Econ the entire period by drawing in Horace’s APE. Every time Motz made a joke, Horace and I took that as our cue to burst out laughing because our sides (or at least my sides) hurt from shaking with laughter. I think we were all a litle tired from the research paper.
Best news ever today was that Whitten won’t be here for the rest of the week because her grandchild is getting born (yay!) and she’s going down to DC to wait. Oh, I am so happy. So, so happy.
I don’t understand why I don’t like her so much. Well, I do, but I’ve never felt odiousness for any teacher, let alone a teacher for English. Maybe it’s the amount of work she gives? McDonald gave a ton of work, but it was useful work, because we actually would go over it and she would write constructive comments. Whitten gives me a 42 out of 50 and tells me to change my writing style. My style is fine as it is.
It’s not that I’m just being stubborn, either; I really do like my writing style, and it’s perfectly clear, unlike what she may think. According to her, my style renders the text imprecise, and by changing it I can convey my ideas better. Well, considering I didn’t want to waste paper, I confined my answers to one page. I used enough words for me to be able to look at my responses and relay them to my discussion group, to be clear to myself. I wrote down clear quotes that I could build upon if I needed to write a full-blown essay on any one thing. I’m not going to waste time writing explanations if it’s just a homework assignment, and I’m going to build on it through discussion anyway. Which I did. And she gave me a 40 out of 50.
I did put effort into the assignment. It’s not like I BSed it. I just put down key points that required little elaboration, and she accuses me of not being clear enough.
I don’t care that I got a 42 out of 50; it’s that my style was the reason for my 8 points off that irritated me. I can write. She knows I can write.
Maybe I’m bitching about this because I’m a 3rd MP senior and I can’t take criticism like I used to, because I think I’m close to perfect and ready for college. Or maybe the whit is not as passive as she makes herself out to be. Which she doesn’t.
Regardless, idk why I was kind of pissed at the assignment in general. It’s not like she took off half credit.
…she insulted my style in an effort to improve it.
Enough about that class…I care enough to not completely BS the entire thing, but I don’t even know what she grades anymore.
I love 2PM. Like…they’re nothing compared to Big Bang, but they’re so…awesome I can’t take it. Taecyeon is by far my favorite right now; he speaks ENGLISH! Yee!!! So does Jae Beom, and he is seriously black but not really but he lived in Seattle. Woot. Woo Young is probs my favorite Korean Korean member, because he’s so LOL in the 10 points out of 10 video. Which I have watched almost as many times as Haru Haru. I can’t wait for them to release their new single…IN DECEMBER. GAHHH FUCK.
I also found Super Junior’s comeback song “Sorry Sorry” quite catchy but the rabidness of ELFs (SuJu fans) repulsed me. Besides, there are 13 freaking people. It’s a colony.
TOP’s family was rated the best looking family in the Korean celebrity world of today. Yay. His sister is really hot, though. Yes that was not a creepy statement.
I have AIME tomorrow. It’ll be good time, because idk what I’ll be doing. Hahahaha I got 3 out of 15 questions. The good thing is, I’m pretty good at the geometry questions so I guess I’ll just focus on those.
I’m kind of giddy about getting the rest of my college decisions back now, since I know I can go to perfectly good schools even if I don’t get into Harvard and Yale and the like. Although UC Berkeley would be freaking awesome. I want Horace to get into a good school, too.
Thinking about prom but still haven’t decided when’s the right time to ask. Because prom IS in three months. That is quite a while. Maybe April.
Holmdel drama is loldel drama. Especially when it doesn’t concern me and when it is Asian drama.
The hurdling juniors need to stop acting like they’re badass and ignoring the rest of the group when stretching and doing drills because they’re just looking like people who just disrespect. And that ain’t cool. Plus it makes them look like bitches and hoes.
Kev’s video was rather funny after I got the general gist of where it was going.
I’m just writing until I get enough inspiration to finish my poem for Lit Mag. Haha I am such a procrastinator.
I need to find some time to make a rough sketch of what I’m painting for Mrs. Butler. I also need to lose these five (or eight?) pounds that I still have from winter break. God fucking dammit. I know it’s all fat, too.
Wow now I feel kind of depressed. Dumb Whitten.

Fucking pygmalion paper can go die in a hole
Running on four hours of sleep for very good reasons…including talking to horace and greg about life in general and how fucked up the three of us are in various ways.
Surprised to find that I am faster than I was in sophomore year, which was the last time I raced. This is good; means that I’ll get some running in this season instead of only doing triple jump, although I love TJ immensely.
I have done a shitload of homework this weekend. I am commending myself.
Still have econ articles to do. GAH. *pine!mope*
iPhoto kills my computer. I need to find a new way to transfer shit because like…my computer dies whenever it turns on. rather sad. oh nvm I just found out that the only reason that happens is because I had a hugeass WG avi on my sd card so it would just kill everything in general. Everything’s good now. yay.
Back to Whitten.
I have no idea how I’m going to sleep at an appropriate hour today; I also have to do some stuff for Indian Hill’s career day (painting?) and the freaking ECO flyer. Gah.

Quack
I can’t sleep.
Took a 30 minute “power nap” (I don’t think I could even consider it that because I wasn’t planning on waking up) at 10:40.
Ohhhh well. I’ll sleep for an hour then go shower (because I’m too lazy to shower right now. Ah, procrastination).
And in case you were wondering, I didn’t do any homework until 11pm. For reasons unknown (cough ff.net cough).
Wow, this is actually appropriate for once:
FEELS LIKE INSOMNIA OOH OH OH~~

aslkdjf!
reasons why I am awake:
slept from 1:30 pm – 5:00 pm.
drank coffee at 10:30 pm.
rose is back home.
sarah’s birthday.
wahoo!

SO MUCH FOR SLEEPING AT A GODLY HOUR.
I didn’t fall asleep at least. Which is always a good sign.
However, I finished outling econ at approximately 11:18. Which means that I could’ve easily written my PRS in like half an hour and gone to sleep at 12. But I started spacing out and thinking abouot 6927 (eeee new OTP in Reborn!) so I decided to reread good fanfiction and reread/d/l some 6927 doujinshi. And it was so good.
okay seriously sleep now.
Haven’t finished whitten yet! oh well. =|

I need to learn how to do all my work in one sitting so I’m not falling asleep all over the place. Holy craperoony. At least I finished the lab, although I’m not even taking the lab quiz tomorrow.
The good news is, after I get back tomorrow, I’ll have like an hour to just chill, so I guess I’ll go to Dunkin Donuts and catch up on my Psychology and Frameworks and Written Reports (Whitten reports lol) and whatnot.
Yay one hour of doing stuff!

so much for survival
I was like oh I guess I’ll just survive on two hours of sleep and go to my doctor’s appointment (I also needed to get my working papers signed), go to the mall to get some smart clothes, go play tennis, go eat at bertucci’s, and then watch a 9:45 late showing of dark knight (second time woo).
Of course that failed some time around batman appearing and fighting off the fake batmans. Like I stayed awake during dinner because I was laughing so much at Keith’s “jokes” (of course, they’re not jokes; he’s completely serious).
In other news, since XC practice was canceled, Horace came over to my house and we watched Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi. Haha because he hasn’t watched it before and I totally finished watching both Big Bang concert DVDs like 24 hours after I got them. So I didn’t feel like watching them again, nor did I feel like embarrassing myself as a huge fangirl. Which I am, so there’s no problem anyway.
Uh, yeah. So I was like completely out during 75% of dark knight. Like I woke up to random fight scenes and I was like…gwuh? Complete waste of $10.50. T__T At least Bertucci was fun time.
And the wallpapers are in some screwed up proportion because I just adjusted it to my mac background. =___= like…I think it’s whatever whatever whatever. I am totally awake.
So yes, after I fell asleep in the movie theater, I slept for thirteen hours and woke up at 2:30 pm. Whoops. Oh well, not a big deal, I just wasted like an entire day sleeping. Whatevs.
Okay now to do some homework or something.
