Instead of Watching When in Rome, it shall be Howl's Moving Castle :)

I'm finally back at Irvine and loving every minute of it. It's not like I hate my home, but Irvine, Calmindon, Stan Suite feels like the real home. Getting back, instead of doing homework or studying like I should be doing, I went to Albertsons and bought the necessary items for my Econ Extra Credit. Afterwards, I was bored so I went with Simon to Valimar to hang around. Feeling sleepy, I decided to go back to Calmindon to take a nap. Nonetheless, after I spotted Ana and Natasha's DVD box of movies and saw Howl's Moving Castle. I've ALWAYS wanted to watch that and so we did. I really loved it. Sophie, young and old, is cute the whole way. I prefer her older. ;) More "cunning". Howl is a cutie with BLONDE hair. The black/blue-ish hair... meh, I can still live... and love. :) The rest of the people are all so cute as well. Even the Wicked Witch of Waste was okay cause she eventually turns nice.... I guess... Well, overall, I did enjoy and I love the music soundtrack as well. *sigh* Next, movie will probably be Spirited Away, I think. I can't wait to watch that as well.

It's already Week 5. Half way through the quarter and it seems like it was just the first day of Week 1. Time just doesn't wait for you, does it...

Anime. Quit. Kdramas. Quit. What to do now? Oh, I know, TRAILERS!

So this week, I had two midterms: Bio Sci and Econ. I studied a lot of bio sci, yay! But I'm sad to say that I got a C. B if curved. Argh! I was so hoping for that two more points. If I got that two more points, it would have been an A, curved. Oh well. And I didn't really receive my Econ score yet. I know that I didn't do so well, but I somwhat know how she tests like, annoying and stupid, but meh, who am I to judge? Well anyways , I'm not really in the mood to talk about this depressing tests. I'm in the mood to chatter about movie trailers because I have developed a love for chick flicks. I've always loved chick flicks, but at one point they just became so mundane that I lost interest. But the interest is back. One trailer that I must absolutely talk about is the movie, "When in Rome." When I first saw the trailer, I fell in love. It was just a must watch movie for me. Fifteen seconds into the trailer, I was hooked. I knew that this movie is destined for me to watch. The plot is good. I love the soundtrack. I love some actors and actress that are starring in it. I'm even more excited about it than Valentine's Day and Leap Year. It's just that crazy I must see feeling kicking in. I especially love John Heder in it. He look so fiiine. *sigh* Love the hair. And seriously, I just want to enforce the fact that I really love the soundtrack. Jason Mraz, Katy Perry, what more can I ask for? Also this song called Stupid Love Letter is just so damn catchy; I loved that song immediately when I heard it and when I watched Kristen Bell and that guy dancing happily together. I really want to watch cause I mean when the images of the trailer comes into my head how this movie will be funny, dramatic, and just plain, lovable, cute and entertaining. I can't wait.

Another trailer I'm kind of excited for is The Back-Up Plan starring J-Lo where she's pregnant, needs a father, finds a guy... or guy finds her, and he is willing to take care of the kid that she's going to have (I'm not sure yet, just the way I see from the trailer) and Oh Em Gee, isn't that just cute? My heart would literally be stolen from the guy if he's willingly offering to take care of a kid that's not his. That's just adorable.

I'm so sorry about not posting at all this month. I will try to post more in February, after all, it is the month of love... I think.

[Not So] Happy New Year

Today was the first day of year 2010. I would normally put it in CAPS, saying, "IT'S THE NEW YEAR OF 2010!!!!" but I can't due to the fact that things didn't start out so great this very morning. Why? My dad finally found out about my grades and feel extremely horrible about it. To start off with this morning, I was getting really annoyed with my dad picking on my mum, trying to make her feel going oh her trip to China in late-March, the trip she's been waiting for ever since two years ago but never got. He kept on telling her that she shouldn't be going on vacations but rather make more money for my college tuition. My mom was unwavering and got irritated because he's been doing this for weeks. So this morning, I told my dad to lay off of mum, so he decided shut up about her and then pick on me, saying that I was shit and lazy bitch. Then he had a go at my grades saying that I should probably have got them by now(, which is true, just never told him about it.) After an hour of unwillingness to tell him my grade, he demanded that I show him on the internet. I hate how parents go like I won't yell at you if you get bad grades. Just try harder next time, and when you tell them about your bad grades, they give you shit. Anyways, I showed him my two B- and one B and went upstairs to cry a bit because I felt really guilty. I decided to do the New Year cleaning to just be alone by myself for a while until I felt better. After two hours, dad, mum, and I tried to be cheerful [since we had a party to go to in the afternoon]. This morning was just really bad for me to start off the New Years with. So much for the goat being lucky and happy on the year of the tiger. HMPF!
But I'll admit, the afternoon was a bit more entertaining. At 1, I went to run with my dad, and at 3ish, we got ready to go to Great-Aunt Lou's place to celebrate the New Year. Andrew and his dad picked dad, mum, and me up, and once we got there, we just lounged around. As more people came, things got fun-ner. We (Irene, Andrew, and me) walked Eddie, played DS, badminton, and once Albert and Ryan arrived (separately), we played this car video game and LIFE. Ryan is hilarious. Oh, and obviously we ate before the playing. Noodles, baby back ribs, smores, mmmm. Good stuff. Yep, I definitely admit that I had fun that afternoon. Even though this day didn't turn out to be the one I really expected/want, I can only hope that this year will bring more happiness unlike today-ish.

2010 New Year's Resolution

So the year 2009 has ended, and we whole-heartedly welcome Year 2010! 2009 hasn't been so spectacular. Michael Jackson died which was a total shock to me when I heard cause I mean, come on, that guy is legendary. Other things happened that I don't quite remember cause I don't pay attention to the outside world much. But I have to say 2009 wasn't all that great to me anyways. Sure I graduated high school and happily became an anteater. But as I look back, a lot of negative things happened to me, such as fighting with my parents and slacking off with work and school which I utterly regret. Yeah, I know that I'm the one who caused such strife for myself, so I'm totally praying that 2010 will be totally better. (Also, having 2009 being the year of the ox doesn't help since I'm a goat and ox and goat don't get along so being superstitious that I am allows me to say that 2009 was never a glass half full year for me anyway.) SO, my new year's resolution for 2010 shall follow:

1) Get A's in college.
- NO slacking off.
- NO procrastination.
- YES to hard work.
2) Get fit.
- NO midnight snacks.
- NO binge eating.
- YES to eat right and more exercise.
3) Be nice.
- To friends and relatives
- To professors
- To strangers
- ESPECIALLY PARENTS
4) Be more mature.
5) Read more. Less facebook/twitter. (1 hr only) No games on facebook too. Only blogging updates allowed.
6) Be more optimistic.
7) Don't be lazy. with work, exercising, showering, brushing teeth
8) Smile more.
