the first one.

okay technically this is not my first post ever. i had a. thing. on mulitply. i got bored of it though, it sure as hell doesnt shout out to people (people here meaning me). i mean, hell. i got bored of posting. i have to assume that people got bored of reading. my. thing (i can't call it a blog, okay? it was more than that!) looked nothing like jun guan's, which you just have to SEE to believe.

i was actually thinking about importing my posts and chucking them in here, but i decided against it. this is the link: http://nameeta.multiply.com

i wanted to know why millions of people have blogs. okay fine maybe not millions, but it seems like every other tom, dick or poof has one. what sort of allure does letting the world read your thoughts have?

maybe it's just cathartic.

in any case. i jumped onto the blog bandwagon with multiply. cautiously, of course.

i have the whole house to myself right now. it's very very strange, cuz im so used to having an annoying 12 year old prat to boss around. he's in school now, and it's quite amusing actually. sometimes i find it hard to believe that was me just over a year ago, in a uniform and everything. which i must admit, i do miss sometimes.

can i just say it's also freaking humid right now?

something else i've been noticing lately is GET THIS - cars!! i blame need for speed undergorund 2 and my brother. the other day i was going for a movie, and this bright shiny red celica drove up right next to us, and i was like OMG =O it had this massive spoiler and decals and things and...you see what i mean?

it's week two of spring semester 2005, and i've JUST sorted out my subjects and things. it has never taken this long. i blame the department, really. it all started with the foreign lecturer whose visa didnt get approved so he couldnt come here in time to teach intercultural communication. then ad and i decided to take intro to design. of course, all the labs were full by then. we were put on a special waiting list, but by the end of the add/drop period, no one had dropped out. we went through the list, seeing if there was anyone we could convince to drop design. we were that desperate! this was on friday.

on monday when we checked, FOUR people had dropped out of group A alone! so we dropped intercultural, got into design. went for a class. then yesterday, my lecturer who was supposed to have left to get his Ph.D calls me and says intercultural is open again, and i'm teaching it. what did we do? drop design and add intercultural.

it's actually pretty hilarious when you think about it.

i think i'll go race some cars or something.
