She puts lids back on half-assed, she doesn't throw away the cardboard when she takes the last slice, she says she'll clean the kitchen floor but takes 4 weeks to do it...Is this really someone you want as a roommate? ugh. Please! Take her away from me!!

Brrrrrrrrrr....*teeth chattering* It's soooo cold! How do people live here anyway? This is insane!
Anyway, last night I tried to take the verbal section one last time before the big one, and I guess my brain was saturated with info and didn't want to do it anymore because my final score came out to be 490. Aigooo...thats down about 200 points from the other time I took it! It didn't leave me with a very good feeling and so I just ended up chatting with Tammy the rest of the night. I like her bed. Its so comfy . Mine is not as soft and warm. Brrrrrr

This sucks...I can't see my result for the analytic section of my practice test. erg.
I just wasted 1 hour watching Addicted to Love. Oh wells...there's only so much you can cram in 3 hours anyway. ;P

Man! Why is it that I always get an urge to revamp, or well, at least update, my site whenever I have other, much more important things to be doing with my life? tsk tsk. I just can't help it. Is that a sign of weakness? heh

It was so nice to wake up at 11. Ahh. But its so freakin cold! Brrhar.
Since I specifically took a vacation day to cram all this studying I better make it count. Three sample tests to take in 10 hours...hrmm..I can handle...I hope.

This is scary...
I just got my horoscope for the next year. I'm apparently going to have weight problems by spring time (NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! =( Boohar!). But the scary part is when it says for April: Should you stay or leave? Change or remain the same? This is the question that is in the forefront of your thoughts and has become such an obsession that you get the impression that you will go crazy if you don't come to a decision. Basically, you are facing the very common dilemma of someone who is torn between the desire to discover new worlds and the fear of leaving behind the security of everyday life. Yet the solution is very simple, and you know what it is. The only problem is, is that you don't want to have to make the effort to adapt or to have to take on new responsibilities. You need to see things more realistically, as an all or nothing approach often leads nowhere, and you know this.
I dunnoing...getting worried again..need. to. breathe. *sigh*

Want access to my server? I dunno why you would, but if you do just email me a login and pw and I'll set it up for you. I have kpop, some jpop, a little american, and a few vids. I can't promise you'll find anything you'll like and I can't promise fast speeds either. I'm feeling quite outdated lately but maybe once i'm done with this test I can get more. Anyway...yeah. Just let me know. (ie...I'm bored)

Every day I'm at the Ashby station, and almost every morning, while waiting for my train, I look to the ceiling and see these little pipe things hanging down. I'm sure they're sprinklers or something to that effect, but no matter how hard I try I can't help but think how much they look like penises. Granted, they only look as such from certain angles but still! "Look! A ceiling covered with penises!" is not what I want to be thinking everyday. Something is very wrong with me.

posted by mars bars 4:10:43 PM
erg. Its all so annoying. Gore should've won FL if only there weren't all those screwups with the ballot and so forth. 19,000 were voided and Buchanan got like 3000 votes in one county? I mean, who the hell votes for Buchanan?! This is just making the US look quite stupid right now. See, and when the media first announced Gore won FL it was based on exit polling...THAT was right. People who inteded to vote Gore probably voted Buchanan accidentally. Conclusion of this story: People on Florida are dumb asses.

Apparently, when I was hired, I was given an outdated list of days we get off. All this time I thought we got Veteran's Day off, which is tomorrow, but now people tell me that we don't. That fucking sucks. I have to study for the GRE! aiyah!!!!!!!!!!!!! >=(

Wow, I just took the first sample quantatative practice sections and I got a 780. Only 3 wrong. Maybe it won't be so bad after all. Or maybe it will. After all, Math is my best subject, my vocab sucks, and testing is MUCH different when taking it all at once in a strange setting. aiyah. =(

I'm a little disappointed. I LOVE Manoa lettuce! I got a little sad and nostalgic when I read this. My grandpa used to always grow it. I miss him and his constant gardening. Boohar.

I'm about 35% optimist and 65% realist. Okay, not really, but for this election thing I am. I'm hopeful that Gore will come out on top in Florida and we can finally settle this whole matter, but I know that will probably not happen. eesh. Last night I was wishing I had heard some kind of prediction by a psychic for the outcome so I could've prepared myself in advance. You know, like how one psychic predicted the Lakers to win the championship last year? Yeah, I was resolved to accept it and it happened. But since I haven't heard anything, it all feels so uncertain. Dammit I hate that. There's nothing I hate more than having to sit around and wait for the outcome when someone already knows how it ends. sheesh!
But the day is looking quite lovely today. Even though there is some fog lingering here in the city (when is there not?) I feel very bright and cheery. Of course, I'm still stressing about my GRE which is in 3.5 days (and I didn't study one bit yesterday...oops) but I'm still looking quite positive. I got to talk to Grant last night and I saw CG#2 AGAIN today. Happy thoughts. haha.
I came to a revelation last night...well, two actually: One: I had been wondering and wondering why I had to vote in a God forsaken church basement (no pun intended) of all places and not some school cafeteria like I've been used to all my life. And then I had also been peeved that they don't give the day off for election day here. Then it hits me. *BING!* They can't have the polls in the school cafeterias cuz DER! there is still school going on. Oh yes, what a genius I am.
Two: You know how they have those "Don't blame me I voted for ____" bumper stickers? Well, if Bush wins, I guess those people who have that sticker from 1992 will have to discard them. heh. And if Gore wins, well, those people can go on being bitter. ;P
And I'd just like to say, I think I'm getting better at using more complicated words in everyday conversation. I amazed myself last night when I actually used the word haphazardly when I was talking with Grant. Sure its not that big or complex of a word, but its a step. Baby steps dear, baby steps. =)

Oooh! Oooh! On my way home on BART today I saw CG#2 again AND I got to stand right next to him! woohoo! He was wearing this really nice orange sweater. heehee.
In other news, I just came back from voting. I ended up voting for Gore. Before I punched his name I had to take a double take because all this time I was telling myself I'd vote the other way. Don't ask why I voted this way, its a long, complicated, drawn out thought process. haha. I'd just like to say, my polling place, the 7th Day Adventist Church basement, was REALLY ghetto and it made me wish I was back in Hawaii for yet another reason.
Okay, time to study again...really. ;P
posted by mars bars 7:07:43 PM
Damn. You know why Cali sucks? Cuz they don't give you the day off for Election day here. See, that's why Hawaii be cool like that.
Ok, I'll stop now. ;P

The morning started out badly. I left the house late without eating breakfast so I had to book it to the BART station.
The vp asked to see me again today. I dunno, I always get this terror in me that thinks I'm about to get fired, or at least berated. He just wanted me to do a few new tasks. Lately I've felt like his personal secretary. heh.
One good thing did come out of the morning though. I saw Cute Guy #2 on the BART today. [If you're wondering who Cute Guy #1 is, I just decided to stick that title to the guy I saw way back when and haven't seen since.] I normally only see CG#2 in the evenings, and even that is maybe once a week. He gets off at my stop and so duh, I guess he gets on there as well. It made my morning. That and getting a seat. =)

hahaha. I got an email from my mommy:
hi maria. i've decided to pay for lisa's tuition at
hcc for spring semester. this is because you have
received so much money over the years not only from us

a $1300 graduation party and lisa didn't. also lisa
bought her own a/c and stereo. u also got a free

I updated the bio page finally. I dunno what possessed me to put up all those pics. Enjoy them now before I change my mind.
I tell you, my procrastinating gets worse everytime. heh

This GRE is seriously kicking my butt. boohar. ='(
I made fried rice for dinner tonight. yumyum.
Tammy is home from her fencing tournament. Poor thing didn't have a very good meet. Boohar ='(
Can you tell I'm procrastinating some more? Well I can't help it. I want to listen to my new mp3s...GOD's 3rd album is really good! Aleen is totally right! heehee I'm also really digging the new Uhm Jung Hwa. Koyotae3...eh...I miss the old lead singer, and Im Chang Jung..well, I'm still trying to find a place to dl it! Fricken sites aren't working. ='(
I caught a glimpse of mars' kpop mp3s and for a sec I thought I was looking at my own files. haha. I wonder if I should do the same again. Not like I know anyone that wants my files anyway. Right?
Back to gre-ing I go!

boingy boingy. I'm bored.
I'm trying to figure out who and what to vote for still. Yeah, the election is tomorrow, but I've been too busy to really sit down and figure it all out. I'm not focusing on the BIG race yet...I'll probably just end up stading in the booth for about 10 minutes trying to decide. Oh how I hate that. It was all so much easier back when Dole challenged Clinton...or well, tried to challenge. heh.

Oh boy...careless mistakes are going to kill me. But you know..one thing that I like about the GRE is the logic games. They're fun! =P Oh no....was that a geeky thing to say or what?

As you may have noticed, the number of blog entries is indicative of my level of boredom.
And if that doesn't convince you, maybe my downloading of christmas songs will.
All I want for Christmas is yoooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...yoooouuuu baby.

ugh. I woke up this morning at 9:30 freaking out cuz I thought it was Monday and I had forgotten to set my alarms. It took me about 15 seconds to realize it was Sunday. I awoke 3 hours later freaking out because I had dreamed that my CBEST registration was returned to me since there was no address. (I had mailed it on the last day. heh) I had to reassure myself that I did indeed put an address and I had even mailed it at the post office and not my mailbox like I dreamed. Aish...not a good way to start the day.
