| What's with old people and mugs?
Every Sunday, we go to my grandparents house and we have dinner. And after dinner all the grandchildren help to wash and put away the dishes. So anyway, we noticed that my grandparents use the same exact mug every time, but when it's time to put it away, we find a cupboard FULL of mugs. Like seriously, they have enough mugs to last them an entire 6 months without washing.
And then there's this old man that I work for. I pretty much just clean his place. So recently I've been cleaning out his cupboards and I found mugs! He doesn't have as many mugs as my grandparents, but there's quite a few. A lot of them are actually like tea cups (you know those small ones like Chip on Beauty and the Beast?). But still, he has a lot.
I think there should be a TV segment on old people and mugs and what it is that attracts them to it. And does that mean that when we all get older, that we'll start collecting mugs too? Oh man, I can just picture it. But I think for now, I'll just collect glass stuff, like Japanese shot glasses. haha.

| Why do I always feel like my brother... how do you say it? Gets away with everything?
YES! I'M PISSED!
My effin mother questioned me today about why I was yelling at my brother or answering so angrily. Well you know what mom!? Leave me the EFF alone! You don't know what happened to me today, you didn't even ask, so don't act like you know what's going on.
Sure I'm mad and sure I talked to my brother angrily, but you know what? Why is it your business? I had a bad day and then my brother goes ahead and tells me that he wants to use my machine (yudu) again to make shirts. He always tells me these things at the last minute and then expects me to help him. Does he try to learn how to use it? NO! So then I end up doing everything and then when it's all done, do I get a "thank you." NO! Well you know what, I'll just write you these instructions and you do it for yourself. Frankly, I think instructions are even nice of me right about now.
And then of course my mom goes ahead and asks me, "Are you going to help your brother make the shirts?" And I paused... And said, "Yeah, but I don't know why because I already wrote directions for him. And why should I when the last time he didn't even say, 'Thank you?!'"
So my mom then blurts out loud, with guests over might I add, "Oh, she said that you didn't say, 'Thank you,' last time. And then he says, "What? I did!" So of course my mom takes his side and she wasn't even there to actually witness the 'thank you.' So what the eff!?
My usual protest is staying in my room and not eating dinner (these things usually happen around dinner time). So I'm in my room right now and I'm trying to read my textbook for homework, but I can't read when there is noise around (my aunty is over talking to my mom and she talks really loud). So I even have my headphones on, and the noise is still loud. So now I've decided to watch an episode of a drama. Actually, I kind of want to go outside and make something to eat (we're having unagi (eel) for dinner tonight, which I really want, but I don't want to see my mother). So I'm going to make eggs. I think I'm going to try and find a good recipe online for delicious scrambled eggs (I know how to scramble eggs, but I want something more. Something tastier).
I also want to go out of my room so I can play some Halo because that is my outlet, but everyone is around and then I'd have to end up helping my brother make these stupid shirts even though he made four already. So I don't know what to do. I guess I'll just have to wait till everyone leaves and goes to sleep so I can eat and play Halo. That means that I'll have to stay up for a long time. But then tomorrow morning we have to go to my grandparents house because they're having some stupid fight so we have to go keep them in separate rooms and all that. It's so stupid.
Anyway, I think I'm going to stop typing and start watching my drama.
Laters.

| Two days in a row! Sheesh, I think I'm just bored a lot lately, which is probably because I try to finish my homework the day that it's assigned. And also probably because I've watched all the dramas that I could today.
I realized lately that all the WonderFuls have been "crying" over Sunmi's temporary leave. It's getting quite annoying to tell you the truth. Sure it's a devastating issue, but there's no reason to keep crying. Just because you cry more doesn't mean she'll come back. She's made the decision and the most we can do is support her in that time of need. Like I said, "If the Wonder Girls can handle it, then we should be able to." I think the part that I'm most worried about is that when she makes her comeback that she won't be back in Wonder Girls, like Hyunah. But I guess Hyunah was a different story. *knocks on wood* Sunmi will be BACK!
Other stuff to blab about...
Oh yeah, so the dramas that I'm currently watching or want to watch when the subs come out. Right now I'm on the verge of finishing Real Clothes (Karina). They've stopped subbing at episode 10, which leaves 10 and 11 left to watch. Sad times.
Oh my gosh, then I finished Liar Game season 2 (Toda Erika, Matsuda Shota) today. The finale of Liar Game will be a movie which comes out in Japan in March. Ugh, for waiting.
Then I just started watching Code Blue season 2 (Toda Erika, Aragaki Yui, Yamapi. I just finished watching the 2nd episode.
I also watched the 2nd episode of Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (Kame) today.
As for the ones that I want to watch, I'm waiting on Tokujo Kabachi (Horikita Maki, Sakurai Sho) and Bloody Monday season 2 (Haruma, Narimiya Hiroki).
If you want suggestions for dramas that you should watch, I recommend all of these. You'll enjoy them, trust me.
Hmm.. What else can I talk about? School?
Well school is going well. Better than I thought actually. I thought this semester was going to be kind of horrible because I have two classes, a break, and then three classes. Turns out, most of my classes are cool. I mean, they're subjects that I actually want to learn about and I'm learning a lot.
Theatre, Philosophy, Japanese Linguistics, Korean, and Asian Studies. So far, the most boring class is Philosophy, but I think it's just because the teacher has a weird way of teaching. Other than that, I've been keeping up with my readings and work. I feel good.
On a side note, I also have a job. I only have to work 3 hours a week and quite good pay, but I think that I should get another job. I have a lot of time to work actually. I really want to have another part-time job, but I'm just really worried that I won't be able to keep up. I mean, right now it's smooth sailing, but I don't want to be too overwhelmed. I guess I should just try it out and if it can't work, then I can always stop working...
Anyway, I know I should really stop since this post is really long, but I like typing and I don't have anything else to do. I suppose I could read, but I read all day. My textbooks I mean. I do have a SURF (Silent Uninterrupted Reading for Fun) book, but I'm not in the mood to find out what happens next. It's a good read because it's Dean Koontz, but I don't feel like reading right now. Plus, I kind of want a good thing to dream about.
Oh that's a good one. I haven't had a nice dream in a while. I think it's because I can't get a good night's rest. I'm always waking up in the middle of the night. Most times it's because of my roommate who talks in her sleep, but other times it's because I feel bad because I wake up early and I don't want to wake my roommate up in the morning, so my brain just wakes up at weird times of the night. And then on the weekends, I can't dream because I'm too exhausted from trying to catch up with my sleep from the nights during the week. I'd say I haven't had a dream since I've started this semester, which was Jan. 11th. Technically that wasn't a while ago, but still. Dreaming is nice and I feel that most times when I have dreams, I'm more well rested than if I were not to dream. Maybe because most of my dreams are enjoyable and my brain can be at ease.
Hm, I wonder why I haven't had a dream about Sunmi leaving the Wonder Girls yet. Honestly, I don't think it's hit me yet. I mean, the Wonder Girls haven't been performing lately, so it's just like they're still all there. I think when they perform and Sunmi isn't there, I'll probably start tearing and realizing. I do know that she's on hiatus, but my mind doesn't quite think she's gone yet.
Oh well, I guess I'll stop now. I've gotta find something else to do now. Laters.

| So basically this entry will be so I can rant. "What's new about that," you ask? Well, nothing, but I just want to get my feelings out.
Devastating news has come recently. Apparently, one of the Wonder Girls is taking a hiatus from performing to focus on her studies. Many WonderFuls are sad and quite appalled by this announcement, but the worst part of it all is that they've already got a replacement for her.
I don't have any hate towards the new girl, but I just think that it's wrong to already have a replacement. Does that meant that they're about to debut with their new album? And if that's the case, why doesn't the one going on hiatus stay for a little while more? She's the one that's in the album?
The reason why I never mention any names in my blog is because it's devastating enough to hear this news, but we don't want everyone crying over it and making it a big deal. The decisions have been made and we just have to accept it. Not only for the fact that she is part of the Wonder Girls, but BECAUSE it deals with the Wonder Girls. If we truly love them, we know that they have accepted the news and we have to be just as supportive because I'm sure it's harder on them.
In other news, the person that I like is sick. I'm so sad. T_T I'm not crying like that, but it's just sad. I want them to get better and soon because I miss them. I hope they're ok. Many people know who I'm talking about, but I don't want to say because I don't want everyone to freak.
Also, I'm pretty much just here because I don't really want to sleep yet, but I do. I don't know if everyone knows that feeling, but it happens to me a lot. Like, I have one feeling but another part of me has the totally opposite feeling and I don't really know what to do. So it's a good thing I wanted to come on here and write about things in life right now.
That leaves me to say that school is going well and work is ok. I'm also having fun with the new projects at WGSpectacle, which everyone should check out because this is my promotion, but I realize that no one reads this anymore because pretty much no one has xanga anymore. But I like using it for my own rants and to get everything off of my chest.
Well, I've decided that I'm going to go to bed now. Wee! I like making decisions that involve peaceful slumber. GOOD NIGHT!

| Happy New Year everyone! I'm sure you're all tired of hearing that every year and maybe from a million and one people, but I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year!
Of course, what does the New Year bring? Supposedly joy, New Year's resolutions, and school/work. Well for me, this year anyway, that's what 2010 is all about. You see, school is starting soon and I'm kind of ready for it. I think this coming semester will be a good chance for me to see if I'm ready to take on my last year (hopefully). I'm only a Junior right now, but I've packed my upcoming semester with a decent amount of classes, some of which I need and some of which I will enjoy. Along with that comes a job! Whoooo!
As for the New Year's resolutions... I wasn't really planning on any (usually I don't), but the other night, my family went out to a buffet dinner and ate a LOT! Then my brother had this idea that me, him, and my cousin should go on a weight loss bet thing. I was really into that because I was confident that I could win, then he goes ahead and tries to include everyone else. Now the weight loss bet has become some sort of "Fake Biggest Loser" if you will. We have teams and now I'm not too sure my team will be able to win.
The teams are...
1. Me, my brother, my mom, and my cousin's (who is not participating's) husband
2. My cousin (who was in the original bet), her mom, her dad, and her sister's boyfriend
Don't ask me how the teams got made, but that's the way they are. So our team thought we kind of had it all figured out. You see, my mom and her sister (my cousin's mom) are kind of similar in personality and laziness, so automatically we thought that they would cancel each other out. Then, me and my cousin are similar in focusing on what are goals are and completing them, we are strong willed women. We didn't think about my cousin's husband and my other cousin's boyfriend because I guess everyone has faith in them. If they don't do well then we'll just blame it on them, plus they're similar in tendencies.
As for my brother and uncle, they have two totally different mindsets. You see, my uncle's hobby is lifting weights. Picture a buff man, that's what he is, but hairier, so we call him a gorilla. Anyway, when my uncle wants to win, he will do his share if that's what it takes. My brother on the other hand is the laziest person I've ever met. Probably takes after my mom, but still. Since they're forced to be paired up, my brother has to lose the same amount of percentage that my uncle does, which I believe is highly unlikely, but I won't say anything until I see it for myself. I have to believe in my team cause I want to win.
See, the winners get treated out to dinner by the losers. The details aren't really specific, we all just assume that our team is going to win, so we didn't really settle where the dinner will be held or whatever. Also, the bet ends in 3 months, so the last day (the weight-in day) will be 4/4. I think the hardest part for me is the length of time that we have to lose the weight. I think I would've done a better job if it was shorter because I like to start early, which means that later on, I might get tired of all the extra exercise and cutting down on food, but hopefully my team will motivate me. I think kendo will also help.
Anyway, that was my fake New Year's resolution. As for the joy? Well I don't know where that is. But do you guys remember the previous blogs I've written about that person that I like? Well, I know that I'm not over them, but I'm pretty sure that I'm crushing on someone else. It's a celebrity. I can't tell you their name though because that's creepy and some of you might know this person.
I've only been crushing for a while now and I don't know the cause. I mean, I've been watching (that's the only word I could come up with because this person is a singer), but I'm not trying to be creepy. So I guess the crushing has been going on for about a week or so now. And just recently, this person has gotten sick, so I'm praying that they're okay. I just wrote them something on my twitter in fact. That is all.
I just wanted to share all of that with you. I had fun typing it all out. I've haven't typed a lot in a while and I forgot how fun it is. So anyway, I'll be off!
